My Ultimate Summer ‘To Do’ List

Recently, I was inspired to create a Bucket List of things that I would like to accomplish before I die.  I thought that I would also make a Bucket List that just pertains to this summer as well.  When I go back to Weber in the fall, I want to feel like I actually accomplished stuff this summer instead of just sitting around.
Also, I was inspired by Phineas and Ferb to make a to do list for the summer.  Yes, I am 18 and I know Phineas and Ferb should be beneath me, but the show is so amazingly awesome that it doesn’t even matter.  It’s a really good show!

Anyways, I’m showing you guys the list of things I want to accomplish this summer, and as I complete stuff, I’ll check it off…or cross it out.  Most likely cross it out.  And I’ll maybe put a picture with the complete task if I feel up for it.  I haven’t decided yet.  Now, I know some of the things on the list are really easy like ‘go swimming’ or ‘make a fort’, but I think sometimes you need easy tasks as well as more difficult ones to keep you motivated to actually do things.  I mean, who wants to accomplish things if they’re all really hard or really easy?

Okay.  Enjoy this list, and maybe you’ll be inspired to compile your own!  Note:  I honestly went to like 5 sites and took all the ideas from those lists and put them together on this one…although I only put the cooler stuff on this list.  Oh, and some of these things might seem childish, but it’ll be fun to do them anyways!  And some of the items may also seem similar to each other, but it isn’t my fault.

My Favorite Movie Scenes (To Date)

Hello everyone! I know it’s been a long time, and I’m not going to tell you that I’m going to try my hardest to post once every…month or something, but I will post when I can.  Anyways, catch up: I’m done with my Freshman year of college and now am home for the summer.  We cool?  Good.  Now onto the blog!

Everybody has those scenes in movies that they just love and I am by no means an exception to that.  Whether I find the scene funny, reflective, sexy, or just plain awesome, I do have a reason (most of the time) as to why I enjoy it, and I just thought I’d share with you my opinions on good ol’ movie scenes.  So here we go!

Ten Things I Hate About You
Patrick sings Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You

Why I love it?  Well, besides the fact that he is extremely hot in this movie, it’s cool to see him putting himself out there to impress a girl.  Plus his smile just melts my insides… I mean, come on! If a guy did that for me, I’d marry him on the spot!  Potentially…

Dirty Dancing
Johnny teaching Baby the dance moves while Hungry Eyes plays

Why I love it?  Well, come on! It’s such a sexy scene, and the music choice proves it!  I mean, learning to dance and trust your partner that much (even though she couldn’t do the lifts…haha) it’s quite intimate.  And Patrick Swayze…ah…
Okay, I won’t go ga-ga over my choices anymore.  Well, I’ll try to keep it to a minimum. 
Oh, and another thing!  This scene definitely trumps the “Nobody puts baby in a corner” scene.  The first time I watched the movie I was waiting for it, and it was just a total letdown.  I mean, yeah it’s a cute line but I don’t see what’s so fantastic about it.  It just didn’t capture my attention the way the rest of the movie did.

A League of Their Own
Jimmy yells at Evelyn, aka, “There’s no crying in baseball!”

Why I love it?  It’s hilarious!  I mean, for one thing, the way he says it just makes me think of Woody from Toy Story which makes me giggle in that itself.  Another thing…I didn’t like Bitty Scramm on Monk (I thought she was WAY too mean to Monk. Natalie was so much better).  But it’s just so funny.  I think it’s one of the best lines ever, and I don’t know how recognized it is, but I think it’s just so funny.  Also, the continuation where Tom Hanks starts to talk back to the Ump is hilarious, with the line, “Did I ever tell you you look like a penis with a little hat on?” Just throws me into hysterics because I think it’s true! And funny.  It’s just an all-around good scene.  And if you haven’t seen this movie, it’s totally worthwhile!

Up
The opening scene; Carl and Ellie’s life together
Warning: If you haven’t seen this before, you may cry.

This is one of my favorite scenes of all time, if not my absolute favorite.  I mean, Pixar sums up life in a few minutes, without even using words.  Every time I watch this scene I cry.  It’s so heart-wrenching, and the perfect way to start an excellent movie.  I mean, they go from up to down to up again, just like life is.  You can see the love and admiration in each other’s eyes, and it’s just so impressive.  This is also me and Nathan’s movie (and yes, we had a movie before we had a song lol) so it has that kind of connection for me.  But the scene itself…it’s…perfect.

The Lion King
Rafiki hits Simba with his staff

Why I love it?  Okay, honestly, this is one of the best lessons I have ever learned in my entire life.  I mean, seriously, it puts everything in perspective for me.  Rafiki is right.  The past is in the past.  It can still hurt, but you can learn from it.  It’s such a good lesson.  Plus, Rafiki is crazy and awesome.  And the Lion King is still one of the best movies of all time.

Caddyshack
The gopher

Why I love it?  Because he’s adorable!  Okay, I know it’s weird that I would like this movie…but honestly, I love it.  I don’t like Rodney Dangerfield like…at all, but I really do love this movie for some reason.  Maybe it’s the fact that it’s so different from the other things that I like.  And honestly, there are other good parts in this movie that I love (like Bill Murray talking about dead varmit poontang lol) but I don’t know. There’s just something about this movie I love.  Oh! I just thought of another scene from it I should post!

Yes, of course it’s the pool scene.  Haha man…this is such a good movie!

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
…The whole movie.

Why I love it?  This is an awesome video that pretty much sums up my feelings.  One line that was missed that I loved was when Jennifer Gray says “Scrotum!” in reference to Ferris.  Awesome movie.  Just plain awesome.  The 80’s rocked.

Sixteen Candles
“What’s happening hot stuff?”

Why I love it? This scene still makes me laugh.  It’s a good movie, and I know this really isn’t an important scene in the movie, but it makes me laugh every time I watch it.

Raising Arizona
Diaper chase scene

Why I love it?  This scene makes me laugh SO hard for SO many reasons! I mean, for one, Nicholas Cage is ridiculous in this scene.  For two, the song just…fits this movie so well.  And for three…god it makes me laugh!!! If you haven’t seen Raising Arizona, you should definitely see it at least once through, because it really is a hilarious movie.  At least to me.

Young Frankenstein
“Put the candle back!”

Why I love it?  It’s just plain humorous!  This whole movie is funny! I mean, I seriously love it.  (I guess I wouldn’t post scenes from a movie if I didn’t like it…but regardless) It’s so funny.  So much crude humor delivered in a colorful way.  Classic movie, classic scene.

Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
Dolly Parton, “I Will Always Love You”

Why I love it?  It’s so honest.  I love this version twenty times more than I like Whitney Houston’s, because this one is simple and honest, and it’s her voice.  It’s just a good scene.  And a good movie.  Somewhat inappropriate, but still I love it.  But then again, I have a soft spot for Dolly…and good ol’ country-themed movies in general.

Fried Green Tomatoes
Evelyn gets enlightened and ballsy!

Why I love it?  It just makes me happy for Kathy Bates.  I mean if you saw the rest of the movie, you’d know how much she was walked on, and I love that she just let herself go.  Good for her! She deserves it!

Babe
“That’ll do pig, that’ll do” & James Cromwell singing

Why I love it?  I just love this whole movie, but these two scenes take the cake for me.  I really love James Cromwell in this.  He’s a good actor, and I love his character.  And the fact that even when everyone was laughing at him, he still had faith in himself, and in Babe.  Plus, border collies. 

Jerry Maguire
Jonathan Lipniki being awesomely adorable and funny

Why I love it?  So precious.
Why I like this movie?  The scene where Tom Cruise is in the car and is singing to Free Fallin’

Austin Powers: Goldmember
The checkup scene

As you can tell, I have a very…wide range of movies that I enjoy.  And Austin Powers is NO exception.  This scene in particular is so funny!  The whole movie though is hilarious, so if you have the time, check it out.  You may regret it, but hey, comedy is comedy!

And that’s where I’ll end this!  I am 99.999% sure I will end up making another one of these in the future, so I hope you enjoyed watching some of my favorite movie scenes!

Rants

So, right now, I might be dying.
Nathan says it’s not technically me dying unless I actually am dying, but my throat hurts so badly at the moment that I think I might just die.  I can’t get to a doctor though because it’s snowing, the school clinic is closed, and I’m on the other side of the country from my doctor.  So in essence, I am going to die.

There have been a few things that I have wanted to write about, but haven’t really had the energy to write about until now. 

The first thing is that I can’t stand people who don’t do anything to help themselves.  For example, there is a girl in my building who is bigger than I am, and when told that the elevators were out of order, she got another girl to go down and get her laundry for her.  Look, I’m not dissing her because she’s a big girl (I’m pretty big myself) but honestly, if I did laundry, I’d walk down the flights of steps to go and get my own damn laundry, instead of making someone else do it for me.  By not doing it yourself, you’re not helping yourself any, and I have no pity for you.  If someone would ever ask me to do something for them simply because they were lazy, I’d tell them no right off the bat.  Go do things yourself.  You’re in college now, get some damn independence! Learn to do shit yourself, even in difficult situations.  What are you going to do in life if you can’t figure out how to do things yourself now?

Another rant I have is about how friendships can end up changing.  A few blogs ago…I don’t know how many exactly…I had mentioned my best friend in it and how our friendship ended.  Or something to that effect.
Over break, she forgave me and we became friends again.  But our friendship isn’t the same now.  She used to be the girl I could tell anything and everything to, and now I have to constantly bite my tongue and hold myself back from saying what I really want to say, just so I can keep our friendship together.  And I hate it.  Usually the things involve her boyfriend, because I still hate him and think she could do a million percent better than him, but I bite my tongue and keep my mouth shut.  It sucks, but I’m proud of myself for having kept my cool as long as I have.  I go and vent to Nathan about my true feelings after I’m done talking to my friend.  And that’s what makes Nathan my true best friend; I tell him anything and everything and he deals with it.  I really love him for it.

While I’m talking about friendships changing, there’s another friendship that has changed, and I’m sad it has.  I’ve had the same girl best friend since I was in 8th grade.  Everything was fine with us, and we talked all the time.  Then she moved to Arizona, got a job, got a boyfriend, and now I’m out of the picture.  She says we’re still friends and she’s just super busy all the time, but the thing is, I’m busy too, and I still find time to talk to people online.  I feel as though she just doesn’t care about me anymore, and I don’t mean enough to her to actually have her talk to me and stuff anymore.  I was going to try and find a way to go visit her in Arizona over spring break, but I think I would be wasting my time and money.  I would be going to simply try and rekindle our friendship, but if I feel as though she isn’t making an effort now, then why should I attempt to make an effort?  I’ve been trying to make an effort for over a year now, and sometimes you have to know when to give up.  And I hate it, because I still consider her my best friend…but it isn’t the same anymore.

Y’know, I’m an amazing friend.  I know it sounds really narcissistic and like I’m full of myself, but it’s true.  I am an amazing friend.  That’s why on facebook and myspace my url was goodfriendtiltheend.  But I can only be a good friend if the people I’m friends with show me the same courtesy.  And I’ve found that most of the time, that doesn’t happen.  I try my hardest to be the best person I can.  I always make myself available to talk to via phone/texting, and I’m always there for the person.  It just makes me sad that I am a good person, and sometimes it really isn’t reciprocated.  Okay, enough about friends.

Okay.  So I don’t understand why guys are so fucking disgusting.  Nathan lives on the 9th floor of our dorm room, I live technically on the 7th, but usually I don’t want to take the stairs/elevator down 2 flights just to use the bathroom…and sometimes I have to pee so badly that I can’t make it down that far to use the bathroom.  I resort to using the bathroom on the guy’s floor (After Nathan goes and makes sure no one is in there).  I regret it pretty much every time I go in there.  It is positively disgusting.  Do guys NOT know how to flush a freakin’ toilet?  Is it really that difficult to push down a little handle?  I don’t think so.  I also don’t think it’s such a hassle to wash your hands.  Not only does it get pee residue (or OTHER residues) off your hands, but it also helps to keep you from getting sick.  A number of times I have also gone in there to find that most (if not all) of the toilets are clogged.  Do you need to use a whole roll of toilet paper to get your ass clean?  I don’t even use much and my ass is bigger than *most* of the people on this floor.  It’s ridiculous.  I’ve found that it occurs in the girl’s bathroom as well, but it is a much more common occurrence in the guy’s bathroom than the girls.

Speaking of guys, let me rant about Nathan’s neighbor for a little.  He is an annoying fucking ass, and so is his stupid, loud, obnoxious, stoner friends.  They’re always loud.  Like, seriously.  There is a rule in the dorm that quiet hours are at 10 pm until 7 am.  His neighbor plays guitar/talks to his friends until 1 am.  On a regular basis.  I didn’t use to be such a giant grouch, but apparently when I can’t sleep, I get extremely angry and want to kill anyone/everyone in the vicinity.  Usually I end up wanting to kill Nathan, but that’s because he snores super loud in his sleep sometimes.  And who could blame me for wanting to smother him over that?  But at the moment I am sick, and just want to get some rest, and his neighbors are fucking loud and obnoxious so late at night, and I can’t sleep.  So I end up thinking up ways to kill them.  I mean, that’s normal, right?  One of these days I think I might snap…and it will be frightening.

I know that this blog is just a bunch of giant-ass paragraphs and that’ll get boring to read, so if you’re with me thus far, then maybe you’ll be willing to go a little farther (Yes, I kind of took that from Shawshank)

And by that, I mean, maybe you’ll let me humor you by posting extremely random pictures I find on the internet on here.  Deal?  Okay, deal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ehhh I got bored. And surprisingly, I get bored extremely easily. So that’s why you only have 5 wonderful pictures to look at. If you want more though, let me know and I’ll come up with a completely random blog with a bunch of pictures that make no sense and have nothing to do with each other.

Experiences with Nathan

Okay, just to clarify, when I say the word ‘experiences’, I’m not about to exploit sexual escapades or anything like that haha.  This blog might not be rated G, but it’s definitely not going to be rated X either.  Plus, I think it would be extremely awkward and weird if I did make a blog about that. Ever.  So don’t expect one.
Anyways, when I say ‘experiences’, I mean developments in our relationship.

For example, the day we moved from being a solely online relationship to something more than that;
Aka: the day I actually met Nathan.

Now, that was the Saturday before I started college is when I officially moved into my room.
Technically, my stuff was moved into the room on Friday, but I stayed at the hotel room on Friday night (partially because the beds are amazing, and partially because I wanted to spend one more night hanging out with my daddy before he came back to Pennsylvania).
So Saturday morning, dad drove me to the college and made sure I had everything, and then he hugged me and said he had to go now, and I knew he said it because he was going to cry.  And it’s a good thing he left too; if I would ever see my father cry, I definitely would end up crying.  I mean, I ended up crying anyways, but that’s not the point.

So he left, and I was alone in my room. 

On Saturdays, Nathan works, and this was pretty early in the morning, and he hadn’t left for work yet.  Naturally, I wanted to meet him, so before he went to work, he said he could come down to my floor and meet me (we live in the same dorm building).

He told me he was headed down and my heart was beating so fast. I seriously thought I was heading towards a heart attack. I was meeting my boyfriend of almost 9 months (at the time) in person.
I saw him at the door and my heart skipped a beat.  I was so nervous, and even though I previously felt so confident talking to him and stuff, at that moment, all my shyness came back and I could barely stand to look at him.

So he came into my room and stood by my bed while I sad down at the desk to talk to him.  I still couldn’t look at him, and every time I glanced up at him, I felt all flushed and had to look away. He was trying to talk to me and make me feel better about meeting him and stuff, and after a few minutes he had to leave for work.
So I got up and hugged him, and then he left.

Even though I had been so shy and embarrassed, it was still one of the best moments of my life.


And then…
Later that day, after he got done with work, I went to hang out with him again…
…in his room this time
(my roommate was in our room at the time and I wanted to see his room anyways)

I still felt really embarrassed about being around him, but I tried to talk about stuff to make things a little more comfortable.  I first started ranting about the view from his room being better than mine. (And it totally was)

I sat in front of his window looking out it while he laid in his bed, looking at me.  Eventually he got up and I decided to go lay in his bed instead….
…which was fine, until he decided to lay in his bed as well.

Then my heart started to beat faster again and I got super nervous.
He just wanted to cuddle, but I still was getting all freaked out.
Eventually, I got less nervous and was able to feel very happy about being in the same room as him—and even in the same bed!

He kept wanting to kiss me, but I had told him no a million times over.  He also knew that I wanted our first kiss to be perfect.  Like something out of a movie…I’m really into overly cliché stuff.
Buuuuut after awhile I could help it and asked him to kiss me.
And he asked if I was sure…
I said yes, and when he kissed me…it just was…magical.

Nathan is the second person I have ever kissed in my life, and I’m almost positive at this point he will be the only guy to kiss me for the rest of my life.

So that was pretty spectacular.  I don’t know if it was too overly mushy for you guys or not, but I thought it was…sweet.
As I write this blog I can’t help but smile.  That’s just the way I feel when I write about Nathan.
(And when he reads this blog, I know he’s going to end up smiling too.)

Two other instances that I’ll talk about will be our first date, and our 1-year anniversary.
(I’m not going to make the blog any longer than that, because I know a lot of you won’t really care about Nathan, and will just get bored with the gooey-mushy-lovey-doveyness, and hate my blogs, and never read another one again after this one.
So, I’ll only talk about a few things total.)

There really isn’t a whole lot that I can ramble on about when it comes to our first date.  It happened towards the end of September, and we ended up going to the Hill Aerospace Museum, which is at Hill Air Force Base in Roy, Utah.  Which we were able to get to by bus, so it wasn’t so bad.
…although we did have to walk a good distance to get to the base from the bus stop, but it was still worth it.

If you haven’t had the tremendous pleasure of visiting an aerospace museum at an air force base, I recommend that you put that on your bucket list.  Especially if you like airplanes.
Why?
Because that’s what the museum is: a shitload of airplanes that are out on display! What could be cooler than that?
It’s also free, and you don’t even need to get onto the military bases to access the museums.
By the way, the one in Utah isn’t the only one out there…but it definitely was the closest to Weber.

Anyways, we went there, and we ate lunch first.  Which didn’t take long.  And then we started to wander around the planes outside, looking at them and talking…and I kept taking a million pictures.  And that’s pretty much all I ever do.

And then we realized that we could actually go inside the place!
There were even more planes inside…and! There were a lot of different outfits that like pilots and such would wear over the decades.  The wax dolls wearing them were a little creepy, but totally cool!
There were so many awesome planes…but my favorite was this giant black one with red lettering.  I forget what it was called, but trust me, that plane was badass!

It was a pretty amazing day I must say.

 

Our 1-year anniversary occurred on the 29th of November, 2011.  I had my friend Emily curl my hair for me to make sure I looked adorable.  And trust me, I did.  Nathan thought I looked pretty amazing too, which really boosted my self esteem for that night.  Anyways, we ended up going to Olive Garden, and my friend Chelsie drove us.

It was a very nice dinner, and our waitress was amazingly nice.

Then we went to the mall, and I agreed to go see The Muppets with Nathan.  I actually hate the Muppets, but I love Nathan, so I dealt with the movie for his sake.  Even though that is so, I still thought the movie was decent.  Extremely overly cheesy at parts, but still a decent movie.  And I would even watch it again.

So that was a really short summary of what had happened, but that’s pretty much it.  Nothing really over-the-top happened, but it still was amazing.  I can’t believe I’ve been with him for as long as I have now.  But I feel lucky and happy to have him in my life.

 

Nathan and I had another experience together recently; we stayed at a hotel together overnight, but I’ll save that story for another time. (=

Well, I hope you didn’t mind this blog too much; Nathan means a lot to me, and I just thought I would share some of the things we’ve done together with you guys.
