hi everyone, sorry i haven't written anything a while. i'm afraid i don't have any pictures. however, i do have a link: http://noesark.com/index.php (sorry you may have to copy and paste)

welcome to the homepage of my work place. yes that's right, i got a job! i started last week and the week before that was training. i'm really blessed that i have a friend that works there and so when they were short on hands she recommended me and straight away i got the job! however, it does make me question sometimes whether i'm a replacement to my friend or a new hire. either way it means i'm finally earning money for college and car! whoo-oo!

other than that school is going well, i have A's and B's like usual. mom still loves working at hermosa vista elementary and is glad the kids are behaving better then they were a few months ago. dad's still at it at srp too. its so cool to watch they work, it makes me excited to work, too.

alright that's all for now, until we meet again.

Forgive my tardiness, all these pictures are from the Tuesday before New Year's Eve. I'm afraid I am a very notty and lazy person, and never got around to doing this earlier. Oh, well its being done now!

So anyway, on that Tuesday, I went out with four of my friends (from left to right in the first picture): Shelley, Allison, Haley, and Lara. It was a mixed day of "Goodbye Party" and hang out. See, Allison (as well as Shelley) is graduated and on January 3, left us in the Valley to journey to Idaho for school. The cheesecake is Shelley's goodbye present and says "We love you Allison" on it.

The following pictures are from that day in order of what we did. C:


We had lunch at Allison's house before starting our adventure. Then we traveled to the Ice skating Rink on McKellips I think, its several miles West of my house I know. Not sure what its called.Haley and Lara have no confidence on the ice. Luckily they gained some today! I was really proud at how well they did. Of course, Lara and Allsion did fall down twice: once by skating, the second time when reinacting their fall.
Me amigas! Haley, Allison, Shelley, and Lara (she's smiling!).
Allison really wanted to do this flying bird thing and so she and so she and Haley stood next to each other and flapped their arms, it was pretty cute.
This was Shelley's idea. We tried it several times, and this was the best that came out of my camera, Allison's camera might have had better luck. See, Allison got totally cut off. Sorry!
I love this picture! Haley looks so regial. I can just see her saying: "Don't mess with the Haley Bob."
Lara was having a hard time smiling that day, I'm lucky I got her grinning in this group picture, unfortunately she still had to be funny. Oh well, I still love her.
Ice swimming! (Yes, there was a professional skater there. I felt so sad doing my little laps around the rink while she skated so mockingly, but she was interesting to watch and I still had a a lot of fun with my friends.)
Later that night Lara or Haley discovered they had a free game coupon, so together we drove up Mesa Drive to the Apache Lanes on Main street. It was really fun. In the beginning (for like 2 rounds) I was in the lead, then Allison followed by a close Haley, and in the end Allison won, Haley took silver, and Lara beat me by 6 points. I think I need to practice more.

Anyway that was my day before New Year's Eve. I hope everyone had their own enjoyable holiday, and I wish everyone a Happy and late
New Year!

Happy Late New Years!

Yeah, sorry about that. I never really got around to presenting all the pictures I took and have a lot to say on the matter too!

So Wednesday night, all my family came over. It was great to see them (though I did miss half the party--and the egg rolls!--on account of mutual). My dad made lots of great food (happily they saved me some cheese sticks and coconut shrimp), a tradition that is slowly forming. Also my brother-in-law Aaron and my nephews brought over there new Wii and their game "Outdoor Challenge." My brother Ryan really got into it, seen below as he plays the mine cart race. I even tried it, but no pictures, sorry.

Anyway I hope everyone had a great New Years!



So sorry everyone! I had a short movie clip of Ryan playing Outdoor Adventure but it doesn't want to upload (I've been trying it everyday for about a week). However if you still want to watch it its still on my camera, just ask!
