northshore trip.

This morning i woke up entriely too early for the time that i went to bed. i tried in a vain attempt to go back to sleep. i was completely unsuccessful. so i can out to the living room and watched some norm checked my e-mails, wrote some e-mails. by the time i was done i decided that it was time for me to try and go back to sleep. i got a little hour nappy nap in. it was nice. i was awoken tho by whitney and it was raining. i mentioned to whitney how this was a terrible saturday. she responded by asking me if i'd like to go to haliewa with her. I SAID O my GOLLY this day just got better.

I got so excited for lots of picture taking up on Haliewa and was hoping that it would be clearer skys up there. We got there it wasn't clear skys but it wasn't raining either. YAY so we started to take pictures but my camera's battery said it was low. werid i'm sure that i just got finished charging it.

(outside a surf shop on a car.)

the whole point of the trip was go to this clothing store so whitney could buy a jacket. while we we shopping the weather had decided that the level of H20 in the air was at maximum capacity and it was time for rain. by the time we came out it was raining. noooooo. this ruined all my picture taking plans. ughh. we went to celestrial foods. (a little baby health food store) i got some quinoa pasta. deliciouss.then it was back home to laie.

back at home we watched harry potter ate some warm french bread while sipping on hot chocolate all cuddled up in sweats. we all feel asleep by the end of the movie and sometime during the movie i found my way to my bed... i don't remember how i got there but it was sure nice that i was in my bed cause it allowed for me to take a 2 hour nap. oo soo nice.

when i woke up it was still raining but our neighbors where having a bbq dispite the down pour. i joined with thier activities and then it was back to the house for some more movie watching with the roommates.... there's really not much else to do on a rainy day here.....well i kinda have gotten ADD on the movie watching so i decided to give myself a lesson in the wonders of photoshop.

this is one of the picture transformations that i made..oo yea and i scrapbloged a couple of pages. i hope to get an album printed out after this year of college. that would bee oddless of fun.

as i end almost all of my blogs. it's studdy time. night night all my little blogger readers

winter cloths.

(i am in love with this jacket.)

indeed it's a little early to be making christmas lists. but somhow i found this wonderful jacket. andd i lustt for it. small or medium it's called: The Bling Wool Melton Jacket by BB Dakota. it's on the wish listt.

facebook. cravings. & cooking.

i have decided that i spend way to much time on facebook. not so much the internet but facebook. and it's starting to annoy me. usually facebook goes along with the mellow dramatic voice of norm. norm chatting away in the back ground while i chat and look at pictures and write on walls. well i find this a complete waste of time, but for some reason i find it a completely enjoyable thing to do to past the time in between classes. so i have decided to make facebook a weekend website.

so this whole week i have been craving a guacamole burger. the only problem is that the only guacomole burger place is in haliawa a whole 30 to 40 minute drive from my house. seeing that i have no car. this makes things a little difficult. well i realized i have costco guacamole that is soo very good. i decided that hey i'll go to food land and buy all the stuff to make a burger. i spend 15 dollars on meat, cheese, and buns and curly fries. (a burger meal is not complete without fries.) not bad considering one burger at the burger place is 13 dollars. and all the stuff that i bought would make around 6 burgers.

let me tell you. what i made. was impossible amazing. from the moment the burger hit my mouth i was shot into a state of complete extacy. you have to understand i have lived most of my life under the notion that i can not cook. but wowzzers i can cook. and this amazing burger was most defiantly on the equal level of top burgers ever eaten. i am for sure going to start cooking more. there hasn't been one thing that i have made that has turned out alright. it's all been amazing.

well it's about time i get to ssome avoided homework.

my day. what a day it has been.

gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. i can't sleep. and it's officially driving me nutters. my sleeping pattern has greatly been thrown into another dimension after this past weekend. first nightt i didn't return home from honolulu till 3. and i wasn't very sleepy after coming home. next night i stayed up studying then whit went to walmart with chas at 11 o'clock so that chas could be there at 12 to get the new acdc album. (just a littlee bitty ridiculous if you were to ask me) needless to say whitneey stumbled into our room around 2 and i wass wokeen up. going back to sleep was not an easy task... then i woke up needing to use the restroom. i HATE waking up to use the restroom. i decided it was defiantly not worth getting out of bed and walking the whole 10 feet to the bathroom.

& this morning i couldn't even sleep in. it was up at 8. i had a busy day ahead of me so i decided to go on a run. being barely able to think or see due to fuzzy sleepy eyes and running is not a good idea. probably one of the worst running experiences of my lifeetime. to make everything worse i had to take a passport photo this morning. gahh. they turned out not so good, but i was too tired to caree. then it was class. then to the post office to apply for a passport since i lost my wallet and have not id to get home. it was a hassle because i didn't have my wallet. i ended up having to paying 60 extra dollars for some identification process because of my lack of information. LAMEE

on a better note. i got my absentee ballot today. it was exciting. the first thing i filled out was a YES on PROP 8. it's strange to think that i'm 19 and able to vote. i felt very great full this afternoon for living in a free country. and being able to have a say in the affairs of the country that i live in. i was talking with some of my international friends and they were telling me how in their country it is more important to them who is elected as the president of the united states than their own president. i thought WOW....

well i'm going make probably the worst attempt of forcing myself to go to bed. i most likely will spend a hour or so rolling around trying to get comfy. then another 1/2 hour trying to breath in a way that puts me to sleep. peace love and happiness to all.

my roommate came home from california. YAY it's nice having whitney back. I some times forget how similar we are. for instance tonight i cooked dinner. i had just taken a bit and decided that it was disgusting when Whitney walked in and asked me what i was doing. i told her I know what meat tastes like and this imitation boca meat is gross and i had to throw it away. and ate something else. later this evening I came out from my room and asked Whitney what she was doing. She said throwing away the dinner she made it looked nasty. Needless to say we both got a good laugh from this.

midterms are going alot better than i thought. I think i stressed out so much last week that now it's just making myself study that's hard. I've decided that i'm taking my stats final in the morning and then my english one in the evening.

a t.v. show that whitney brought home and is insiting that i watch is Gilmor Girls

well see how i like it. i'm not exactly sure how i feel about it. it is for sure not the o.c. or the office. hmm strange i've never notice that my two favorite t.v. shows start with the o. i really don't think i'll fall in love with Gilmor Girls because i'm not the biggest fan of Alexis Ledel. Maybe G.G.'s soundtrack will make up for my lack of like for AL.

o and remember that mug that i perfectly on accident kicked the handle off of. well it's my favorite cup in the whole house now.

midterm

i'm sorry for the lack there of of pictures.& right now i'm in the math lab preping for studying time. when i say prep i mean avoiding. i go about studying like child avoiding going to bed. i try everything possible to get out of it. in the end i hopelessly give in.

what makes it even harder to study is that i have finally gotten my hands on a copy of eclipse, the third book in the series of twilight, and i can't put it down for very long before i pick it right back up. who knew that my childhood night mare would now be my adult (yikesss i'm a grown up) fasination. i'm currently halfway through the book and i started it last night. 300 pages of mushy vampire love. ooo how i love it.

well i'm going to jump off of the cliff into a pool of books and start studying. o how i'm not excited for this. not even one tiny bit...

hawaii & it's draining qualities

so i finally finished my research paper on tuesday. it was due wednesday. you would think that my stress level would have gone down. but no we learned the 2 hardest chapter of my stats class. which to be perfectly honest i don't quite understand. to top everything off i have four midterms next week. i've been in study overload and now it is the weekend.

weekends. ahh how i tell myself i will study the whole weekend long. but i let myself play. for example today i decided to take a break and go to the beach. i was there for a wonderful two hours basking in the sun getting tan and sleeping. then i decided to do my laundry and run to the post office to send ashley's birthday package (in the midst of rushing around i totally forgot to make a card, and i'm entirely mad at myself for it). then i came home and was doing my laundry and decided that i would wash all my bedding too. then i made dinner. and now i'm just too tired to do any homework. i swear the sun has magical sucking of all your energy powers.

all the roomates being equally tired from midterms, work, soccer and other little dilly daddlies have decided that a night in i just what we need. we are going to watch a movie then sleeppy time. hopefully i can get some studying done tomorrow. i love this wonderful island i live on

prop 8

SO i have just arrived home from the church's broadcast on prop 8. and so i'm here bloggging my efforts to help save the sacred institution of marriage between a MAN and a WOMAN. It is so important for all those who are residents of california who are currently living outside of the bounderies of california to register for an absentee ballet. thanks to my mother sending me the fourm my request was mailed out on monday. here is a web site with all sorts of useful information.

http://www.preservingmarriage.org/

you can go here to if you don't know about the topic. need help explaining the issue to other people or to get some information to give out to people. Here are some video's to help inform you about prop 8. they are also conveniently located on the website above.

happy october

(mr. pumpkin our year long tribut to halloween)

ooo halloween how i lovee the coming of fall, hot chocolate snuggling, getting dark around 5. however there are no signs of fall whatsoever here in the quaint little village of laie. however the inhabitants of this part of the island love halloween and bright orange decorations are being strung up around windows and down fences, darling little jack-o-lanterns are popping up on people porches. but all the treess are green as can bee and there's not a sign of cool crisp fresh air. i miss that. even tho in san diego there are only about 5 trees that loose their leaves and it drops to the "fridged" temperature of 60.


conference it was sunday and i was watching conference on my computer can i just say that i am just ecstatic about the building of the temple in rome. i have always wanted to go to rome and i have decided that i will most defiantly be making the voyage overseas to go to the open house. i'm also very happy to hear about the other 4 temples that will be built. it is so amazing to see the church extending to all parts of the nation. It is very important that we pray so that the leaders of nations can have open hearts so that gospel can enter into every land freely. I loved Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin's talk. we must take the time to laugh. anger and frustration isn't part of the Lord's plan, He suffered so we don't have to. Brother Kimball said that we should make some self improvement goals after conference. mine are the following: show my gratitude to my parents more. they do so much for me and they defiantly are two amazing people. show genuine kindness to everyone. do more service for other, from volunteering around the community to leaving people little notes of admiration. And last and I believe one of the most important to gain a greater understanding of the Infinite Atonement.

So after a day of spiritual uplifting tommy comes over and tells me that it is drew's birthday.

(this is drew)

i got supper excited because this meant that i got to make a birthday card. For friends birthday's I make cards. they are quite adorable and they usually have a drawing of the person and a small birthday wish. Well in the midst of all my joy i got up to go to the craft closet when i accidentally kicked off the handle of a mug set conspicuously at the bottom of one of our couches.

(it was a near perfect break)

needless to say that was the end of that mug. Drew's a surfer so i drew him surfing at hukilau. the them was surfing is for humans something drew told me one day. under the water there was a blue whale shark coral and some fishes. It was cute and creative in the words of Drew.

hiking in hawaii

(hello it's chelly )

since i have moved out here i have wanted to take a hiking adventure. well since i've been out here i have been a little buzzy bee with homework and trips to far away stores during the weekends. but this weekend brady wood invited me to go on a hike to a distant waterfall.

(lipo -something in the water & extremely dangerous)

(brady wanted to keep hiking)

(pretty landscape)

(climbing the rope to get to the jump)

(thinking about jumping)

so at waterfall/mini lake thing there is a large jump. 50 feet worth of jumping. i went up there to check it out and didn't find it too scary. some of the guys where scared to jump it. i was standing on the edge thinking will this kill me? then i thought back to about a year and a half ago at havasuppia. [o what a fun week of cliff jumping that was.] and i remembered the 45 foot jump i did there and thought of this conversation me and the ryan butler said to me. "michelle your not scared of anything are you?" in replied i told him "if someone does it before me and doesn't die i'll do it." well there were 2 people who did it before me so i

(jumpped!)

the drive back home was soo pretty it was a wonderful sunny day. afterwards me brendon and brady went to subway my favorritte and got some tasty little sandwiches. tonight is night flag football at hukilau beach and then watching 21 with the hiking crew and friends.

o golly i love the weekends.

an unusally morning

this morning i woke up and i put on my pants and low and behold ant in my pants. i now fully understand why people say your dancing like you've got ants in your pants. these gorilla sized warrior ants bit and it hurts... so naturally i had to change to avoid being eaten alive. then it was off to my dreadfully early 8 o'clock stats class.i don't mind statistics but when it's that early in the morning it's terribly hard to pay attention. when i got home from class whitney informed me some lady friends where having breakfast at hukilau cafe. i have never been to the cafe but have heard nothing but good reviews. naturally i decided that i would join in on this outing.

(deliciousness : ] )

i got the french toast. and o my goodness it was the best french toast that i have ever had. pureely goodness. tho most of the girls bailed out the waterpolo boys just so happened to be having breakfast there too so we joined them making for a wonderful little breakfast.

the rest of the day went as usual school, studying, library, norm, home, beach, relax time, study. only one more day till the weekend. yayy! tonight will be a fun filled night with the brazil club's opening social. o p.s. mom and dad i'm going to brazil next fall for a study abroad program.
