So here is a question for you all...how do you fall asleep at night. I tried counting sheep but that doesn't usually work. I just need to focus on going to-bed at the same time every night.
I really don't know what I am gonna do after I graduate. Maybe I will go back to school and get another degree. That would be interesting.
Blah blah blah! I love how my blogs are so random and all over the place! this phone is pretty fun! It would be noce to have the energy to do more things! I get so tired of being tired! Maybe it will get better after finals are done. I loved being in Hawaii because I felt pretty good that whole week! It was so much fun;) let's see in Hawaii I would always go to bed at like 8 or 9 because of the time difference and I would sleep really well! Maybe because the boat rocked me to sleep;) arg......it is really hot right now.
Ok well I guess I better try to go to sleep. Have a good night, don't let this blog bore you to much.

Besides that it has been pretty normal around here.
One of our cats has gone missing.....randomly. Two cats came with this house, they are mostly wild, but we feed them because the lady who lived here before us did and they keep the mouse population down. The one we call meow mix has been missing a couple days now. I am not to worried, she usually shows back up.
School is still really busy, I have a test this week, 2 papers dues, and one assignment. I only have two classes. Still it is crazy. These last two days I haven't really wanted to do school, I have other things I want to do, I think I am getting spring fever.....in the winter :)
Well I am tired so I am probably going to go to bed. It is only 8:30, but I am tired :)
bye

Devon and Angela moved out on Saturday. It has been quite around here. I think it will kick in more when monday comes and I will come home to an empty house :( My front rooms looks really bare now.
Hawaii story time:
Ok, so the only time that I got really motion sick was on the last night on the cruise. It was a friday night and we were all going to the liberty restaurant on board the ship. I was feeling a bit icky before I got there, but when I sat down I just started getting really nauseas. Apparently I looked like it.....I get really pale when I don't feel good.....because a couple of people asked me if I was alright. I decided that I wasn't going to force food into my stomache and left. I went and got a little bit of something from Aloha cafe for later in the night, but I never ended up touching it. I was sick for a bit, but fell asleep and when rb came back he gave me a Dramamine ( spelling) and I slept the rest of the night. I had a patch on my ear to prevent becoming motion sick, but I think the medicine had been washed away when I was at the beach that day.
I got to go to a lai (spelling) making class. I made a fresh flower lai out of orchids! It was really really fun! In total I got two real lai's! One from Wendy and Dave and one by making it. Then I got a beautiful red one from RB's mom that was a fake one! We got to wear them in our family pictures.
After I finished whith that class I went to a Sarong tieing class and learned some cool ways to tie a sarong around you. I also went to a Magic 101 class and learned some pretty cool tricks!! Maybe I will make a video and post it on here......see if I can fool anyone. When I learned the trick on the boat I was probably making everyone really annoyed because we were at the dinner table and I kept trying to get it right :) I still don't think I am that good at it:) It was fun on the cruise ship because they had a lot of different classes to go to :) I like learning stuff like that!!
Have a great night!!!

Wow and Geez
My dad worked on the island of Lanai ( hopefully that is how you spell it), and I was able to see it from a distance! He picked pineapple there when he was a teenager. We were on Maui. I was actually really close to taking a ferry over there and being able to actually set foot on the island, but time didn't really permit. That is one island I would like to go to if I ever go back to Hawaii. We were at an old whaling port town called Lahaina, but it has basically become a tourist destination. There are a lot of cute little shops. I enjoyed a yummy snow cone and bought a flower to go in my hair. This is where I got some cool pictures of the banai trees (again not sure how it is spelled). I would definately want those in my yard if they could grow here!
So that is all for today on Hawaii. In other news, Halloween has come and gone. We had trick or treaters for the first time in our married life and it was fun. We carved pumpkins with Heidi, Rob, Devon and Angela. It was a fun Halloween week. I didn't dress up as anything but myself :)

More Hawaii Advendtures
Not much happens in this video. There is cute baby J, and then Jeff tries to photo bomb, but didn't realize it was a video:)
We actually fell asleep really early, like 6:30pm. In reality it was 9:30 Utah time. We didn't sleep the best because there was a freeway right next to the hotel. I didn't realize how loud cars could be until they kept me up half that night. Jeff and Cindy left with Wendy and Dave to stay at their place for the night. In the morning RB's dad got a rental car and we were off to Pearl Harbor! I had never been to pearl harbor before, it was really cool. We took a ferry over to where the USS Arizona had sunk. I didn't know this, but they didn't ever recover it, they just left it down there. you can see parts of the boat sticking up above the water. There were a lot of interesting things to look at and read about.
After pearl Harbor we were off to the Pier to be dropped off and wait for RB's dad to go pick up the others in Laie. We were actually waiting for a very long time before we got on the cruise ship. I imagined it differently. I thought there would be this nice waiting area, but we were basically just in this big warehouse. When rb's dad had got back from turning the rental car in, we finally got in line to be checked on board. There were security checks just like the airport. We each got our own little card that basically did everything. It was connected to our credit cards, opened our rooms, was used to check us in and out of the boat everyday. You could just walk around with that card and use it for everything. they made it to easy to spend money:) Don't worry I didn't go overboard with spending or anything. I actually didn't buy much at all on the ship. I bought one virgin smoothie, just to try it out, then one night I bought advil because I had a headache. They had many different restaurants to chooose from. Some of them cost extra and we never ended up going to them, because there were plenty that didn't charge any extra. It was really fun to always order appetizers and desert. We were in a fancy restaurant and I order a strawberry soulfle (spelling) with my dinner, and I asked the waiter to bring it with my meal instead of after.....The waiter thought that was funny, but I just told him that I actually wanted to have dessert instead on getting stuffed before I could get any. The soufle was super good, and he served it all fancy!! After I had mine, almost every one at our table ordered one for dessert form themselves:)
Alright I feel like there is so much to tell, but now my fingers are getting tired from typing. So I guess I will have to continue telling you about my vacation later.
bye
