MA

So Mom, Amanda, Miriam, and I were trying to find a good show to watch. We were looking through the free tv shows On Demand. There was a murder mystery that I thought sounded good. I really didn't look at the rating because it wasn't R. We started watching when all of the sudden the lady pulls off her shirt. . . exposing everything. We all started screaming and my mom. . . poor mom was trying to change the channel but didn't know how to. Finally after the screaming stopped and the movie was stopped we realized the rating was MA and mom goes "well I guess we aren't mature adults"

Am I just stupid? I didn't know that Mature Adult had its own rating! I thought that was part of the rated Rness of movies. . . I guess I'll just have to be more careful.

Locked Door

I locked my bedroom door for the first time over Christmas break. When I got to my room I couldn't unlock the door. Turns out the office gave me the wrong key. The office was closed so I couldn't ask them to open my room. I really had to get into my room so I did what my movie watching skills told me to do. . . Kick the door down. (The voice in my head said it really wasn't important to get into my room. And i'm not violent I promise) Well I kicked (not very hard either) and there wasn't a lot of damage. Nothing a screwdriver and nail gun wont fix. I should probably not do that again. But . . . If I can get into a locked room that easily . . . I should keep a bat by my bed.

To Temple Square We Go

The temple was gorgeous like always!

Me and Kortlyn on the way home. . . I don't know what I'm looking at

Me and Shantely on the way up to Temple Square! We are cooky!

Late Birthday

Shaun from my ward got me a late birthday present. Tickets to New Moon! (I'm not an obsessed freaky fan but I thought that the books were pretty good). So Shaun cooked me grilled asparagus and some yummy fancy chicken with french bread. After dinner Shantel, Kleresa, Amber, Amanda, Shaun, and I headed to New Moon!! It was a wonderful late birthday present!! I loved the movie and had some great pictures. . . unfortunately I lost my camera :(

Birthday Card from Geoffrey

I came home today to celebrate my birthday. It is actually on Tuesday but today just worked out for everyone. I got home and my mom goes, "Camille, this was in the mail for you". Of course I got really excited (who doesn't when they get mail?). So my mom hands me this. . . It really had my name on it and everything! And Geoffrey the Giraffe called on the phone to wish me happy birthday . . .ughh too much giraffe

I guess they don't know that I'm turning 20 . . .

Fall Ball!

Besties!

Roomies (with Shayna's new hair cut)

Me!

Shantel . . . isn't she so pretty

Madeline, Kleresa, Shayna, Tasi, me, and Shantel!

Awkward!

Most awkward thing. . . when a guy comes up to you and says "I used to have a crush on you". Like seriously what do you say to that? I was totally stumped. . . good thing I don't blush anymore

Testimony Meeting

So last night I couldn't sleep. . . like at all. Why? I kept going through what I would say IF I was going to share my testimony in church. I decided that I would be brave and do it in Relief Society. As my luck would have it the bishop talked FoReVeR! So I didn't get a chance to do it then. I thought oh well there is always next month. Well sacrament comes, Shantel gets up. . . then Kleresa and Shayna practically race to the microphone. Once up Kleresa goes, "well if Camille feels so inspired to come up and share her testimony we will have our whole apartment." Of course everybody laughed and looked at me! I wanted to kill her right then and there. I hate getting up in front of people! I get so nervous my legs start to shake, my voice is shaky and I forget everything I want to say. Then Shayna goes points at me when she is walking up. This made me mad. Of course I had to get up right after Shayna and share my testimony. It actually ended up going very well. I guess peer (roommate) pressure can be a good thing sometimes. It actually wasn't that scary getting up there. I'll have to do it more often now. . . at my own prompting.

John Allred Concert

Going straight from the wedding I met up with Tasi in downtown Provo. We were going to the John Allred concert. (My 2nd concert I have ever been to in my life). It was so much fun! I have never heard of the singer before but he was amazing! Total plus. . . the concert was in this really amazingly, cool, old building. Sucks being short at a concert. . . tall people should stand in the back! To get this picture I had to hold the camera above my head. . . as far as I could reach. Oh and we got free CD's!! Yeah!

Angie's Wedding

Very very nice job. . . whoever did the decorating!

Bride and groom

She was so pretty!

The decorations were amazing!

The actual ceremony. It was so exciting to see her get married! At the same time it was very sad to hear. . . "until the end of your mortal lives" :(

I Hate The BUS!

I hate riding any kind of bus! Hate, hate, hate them! I had a fear of them while I was younger. Moving to Draper I had to ride the bus to school. Coming down to Provo I have to ride the bus to school. I somewhat got over my fear. This morning was my first day of classes. I got out to the bus stop 1/2 hour before my class started. The bus didn't come for 15 minutes. I wasn't too worried at that point. We then hit every light. We even had a red turn signal and the bus driver, tired of waiting, just went for it. We then had a car break down in front of us. . . grrr. I was 5 minutes late to class on the first day! On the way home the bus lady had a problem. She couldn't slowly and gradually apply the brakes or the gas. Slam on the brakes. . . . slam on the gas. I was so tired and my back hurt. It didn't help that her bad driving skills made my head want to explode. She even missed a stop that some people signaled for. She was horrible! She would put on the brake fast then get off and then put on the brake again. . . over and over. . . from intersection to intersection. Sitting sideways didn't help my sore back at all. I thought I was going to throw up. So I started laughing. . . people thought I was crazy. . .

Alta Vs. Bingham

Alta and Bingham have been rivals for almost four continuing years now. Alta has won the last three State games against Bingham. All of their games have been intensely close. Alta, however, has always managed to win! Tonight was their first game against each other for the 2009-2010 season. Three hours before the game the tickets were sold out. Over 2,500 people are expected to be there. . . .

and we lost! :( sad, sad, sad day!

What to Wear

Amber: Mom, what should I wear?
Mom: Just wear a skirt.
Amber: I can't go topless!

What to Pick

Shantel, Kleresa, and I all went to the Provo Library tonight. We all got library cards so we can get a little more variety in our movies. I was at the desk signing up when. . . .
the librarian pulled out this card and another one for me to pick. If you think the frog was lame you should have seen the other choice! A totally nerd guy had to have designed the other one. The other was gray and had a scary looking dragon on it. How lame is that! Hahaha. . . I must have made a very weird face at them.

Martin Harris Pageant

Saturday night I drove with Shantel's family to see the Martin Harris Pageant in Clarkston. Once we got there I immediately fell in love with the area! Good thing I had my camera! The poor Millers had to suffer while I made them take lots and lots of silly pictures.

Haha this is my favorite one! Except for the shadow of the photographer

Martin Harris' grave and cane!

Fire, Fire, Fire!

Amanda called me and sounded a little upset. She asked me if I knew what was going on in our neighborhood. Of course I didn't so I told her to tell me. "Camille, our neighbor's house is in flames!" They don't know how it started but they do know it started in the garage.

Half of their house was destroyed
How weird that this happened after my family's fire scare! How terrible would it be to watch your house burn! Luckily everyone made it out of the house.

Balloon

I have never been able to blow up a balloon. Today I finally blew one up! ME! (the first balloon ever so I had to take a picture of it.) When Shantel found out she was totally shocked and started screaming! My future children will no longer have to feel different. . . they can now have balloons at their parties because I CAN BLOW UP A BALLOON!!

9-1-1

Last night I got a phone call from Miriam. Right away I knew something was wrong. . . she never calls me. I answered and Miriam not sounding panicked starts out by saying "Camille can you hear this?" I didn't know what she was talking about I couldn't hear anything. "Camille, there are two fire trucks in front of our house!" I started freaking out! I tried to get the story out of her but she wouldn't . . . she had to go and take more pictures. After she practically hung up on me I tried calling other family members. NOBODY would answer their phones! I jumped to the worst possible conclusion. The house exploded and my whole family had died. Shantel said that her family would adopt me.

Amanda called me about 23 minutes later. It was just a normal Sunday night when the smoke detectors went off. My whole family gathered in the living room to see what was going on. Then everyone could smell something burning. My parents made the kids stay while they went to see where the fire was coming from. They couldn't find anything so my dad told my mom to call 911. About 12 firemen showed up in two trucks. They rushed into the house and started looking around. Turns out that there was no fire. The smoke detectors were just filled with crap from when we redid our hard wood floors.

Laura and Ryan

Laura and Ryan got married August 8, 2009 in the Salt Lake Temple! Laura is my good friend from my home ward. I have known her for about 5 years. I can't believe she got married so fast! (ignore all the dates on the pictures. . . totally wrong!) Amanda, Mom, and I all went to see the beautiful bride!

They had a table covered with different bowls of candy! They gave each guest a Chinese food box to put their goods in.

And for the best part of the night. . .

COLD STONE ice cream for all the guests!! How freaking cool is that? I never knew that Cold Stone did catering!

Blood

When it comes to blood I think it is pretty cool stuff. I don't have a weak stomach for it at all. Yesterday I drove to my parents house and saw a sign for the Red Cross. They were at the church for a boy scout project. I went in and waited forever! The only thing I hate about giving blood is the finger prick! It hurts so much! I was brave and finally made it into a chair about an hour later. Usually I watch them put the needle in but the lady wouldn't let me look. She started counting. . . when she got to 3 she shoved the needle in my arm (she must have thought I had thick skin or something for shoving it in my arm like she did). . . Several things happened when the needle went in 1. My arm hurt really bad 2. the lady gasped 3. blood squirted everywhere! I thought it was pretty cool but I could tell she was really freaked out. She was a little shaky (I really started to wonder how she get into this profession). I tried to look around but once again she wouldn't let me look at anything. Blood squirted all across her white lab coat and onto the table next to me. I knew it was pretty bad because I could feel it running down my arm. The arm rest was this giant cup thing which let the blood pool. So my arm was soaking in a puddle of my own blood. The poor lady was so flustered and couldn't stop saying sorry. She got some wipes and started cleaning my arm and the area. It took longer for her to clean up then it did for me to fill up a bag of blood. It is a good thing that I didn't have a weak stomach. . . poor lady would have created a very interesting scene.

Ashley and Keith

Keith finally proposed to Ashley. They were nice enough to let Kleresa, Shantel, Miriam, Amber, and I follow them around while they took engagement pictures. They turned out super cute!

They are getting married September 24, 2009 in the Draper Temple!
