Guess where I am blogging from? My brand new android phone! I still can't even believe it!! So on Wednesday my mom called me and said that my sister and I needed to come meet her at the at&t store for a new phone which we were happy about because our phones are old and have problems! Little did we know she bought us the brand new Android that had just been released on Valentines day and to top it off she got an unlimited texting plan! It also came with a media plan with a WiFi connection! We have been having the best time the last 2 days!! Downloading apps., surfing and texting! It is awesome! Anyone wanting an awesome phone should definitely get an Android! All I can say is I-who??
I LOVE MY MOM! :)

When The Moon Hits Your Eye
Pizza.
How can a one five letter word describe a holiday soo well? Well let's put it in perspective! How many people celebrate Valentines day to the caliber that my family does? This holiday is as extensive to our family as Thanksgiving and Christmas are to others!! Let me set the table for you! You are sitting in your seat and looking in front of you you see a plate laden with Valentines goodies! This year is chocolates, a gorgeous ring and new socks!! Next to your plate in a big ol' margarita glass filled with strawberry daiquiri just waiting to be slurped up! Also next to your plate is a cute little dish filled with chocolate pudding and whipped cream topped with chocolate hearts!! As you are sitting there resisting the temptation to eat your pudding before dinner you smell it!! PIZZA!! The traditional heart shaped pizza of valentines day! You have chosen to top it with bbq chicken this year instead of traditional pepperoni and judging by the smell of chicken and cheese assualting your nose you know that it was a good choice! The timer goes off and your grab your plate and hoist it in the air waiting for the familiar weight of the yearly delicasey! There it is! You lower it to just below eye level and take it in! The beautiful browned crust, the gooey cheese and the little specks of sauce poking out the edge! You dig in, careful not to repeat prior years experiences when you burn your mouth from impatience, and chew it slowly. AMAZING! Every thought in your mind is now focused on that pizza and nothing else! You eat till you feel close to bursting knowing what doesn't get eaten is tomorrow's lunch! Then turn your sights on the creamy pudding! Small enough portion to not take up much space! Just when you think you couldn't place another piece of food in your mouth you realize something!! I haven't eaten a chocolate strawberry yet!!! You grab one and examine it closely. Perfectly covered with just the right amount of chocolate! Starting to ooze the delicious syrup that the strawberries produce! You start by licking the syrup off! Savoring the taste that only a strawberry can create! Satisfied that you have removed every trace you take your first bite! Heaven!! That is what Heaven would taste like if you could eat it! You remain on cloud 9 for 3 strawberries and then after savoring every last bite you return back to the earth!
Gone is then need for flowers and teddy bears! All you need is Pizza and a couple strawberries dipped in chocolate!
That is Valentines Day for my family and we wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING! :]

Super Brawl XLV!!
Geez! Who would have thought that Super Bowl Day would turn into Super Brawl Day?! Not me that's for sure! So over the last year my mom and I have been butting heads! But on Sunday everything bowled over!
We have been put in a hard spot over the last little while! She is working to support the family after my stepdad left and my sister and I had been home essentially raising our little brother and taking household needs under our belts! Now that our brother is starting school my mom has been pushing job searching onto us! There are just a couple problems with that! 1) We can't both get jobs together so it will take a little time. 2) We only have one car to share. 3) We have to work our schedules around making sure we have someone home when our little brother is home from school. 4) We are far enough away from other towns that paying for driving isn't worth the pay we would get. 5) We are in the middle of a flippin recession in a town that has 1/2 the jobs required for the amount of people living here!! What more can she expect us to do!? The only jobs available require you to either have a college degree, biligual abilities or experience pertaining to the job! The first two I do not have and the third how the crap do I get that experience if you won't hire me so I can learn?!
So now we are stuck at home searching for jobs along with the rest of the towns population hoping that we will happen to beat out someone else for a job!! Meanwhile we have to hear about our "lack of effort" everyday of our lives from our mom! How is this fair? I have given up 4 years of my life to raise your child, clean your house and make your food and now all of a sudden none of that matters and I am just a moocher? Yeah Thanks for that!
I hate fighting with my mother! I hate having to say things that might make her sad or mad! She is my mother! BUT when you are beat down everyday for putting your best effort into your everyday life something in you starts to break! Be it self esteem or self control I do not know! But there hits a point when you cannot take it anymore and you have to stick your neck on that chopping block and hope that the words coming out of your mouth will still the axe for at least a little while longer!

The Ghost of Mr. Chicken!!
Okay so I have a weird experience from last night and a back story!!! YAY!!
So the backstory is that supposedly the itsy bitsy house that my family lives in right now used to be a chicken coop way back when!! Weird right?!
So last night I had a big run in with what I believe was the paranormal!!! So I had to do laundry last night because my bedding was nasty thanks to the doggie!! Anyways it was late and cold so I had to get my quilt finished for bed!! Anyways around 10 pm my mom wanted me to lock the door, so I went out and locked them and tucked the chairs at the kitchen table in! Later at about 10:30 I had to go check my quilt in the dryer! Now by then everyone in the house was in bed asleep! So I go to take some laundry out and check my blanket when I run into a chair into the kitchen! I look and one of the chairs was pulled out!! Like WAY out! As if someone was sitting in it! So I thought that was kinda weird but shook it off, tucked in the chair and continued into the laundry room! After waiting for the dryer to finish! Approximately 5 minutes I went back into the kitchen and the exact same chair was pulled out AGAIN!!! I immediately freaked out and ran into my room where I told my sister!! I was scared outta my mind!! So my sister said it was okay and I tried to calm down but then I got really hot!! Which is hard in a house that doesn't get above 70*!! So I got soo hot but I had a spot on my back that was soo cold it hurt!! I ended up curling up in bed trying to sleep and refusing to open my eyes!!
SO Here is my theory!!
The ghost of a slaughtered chicken has come back to take revenge on the humans who have invaded their coop!! A.K.A. ME!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Don't hurt me chicken!! I promise I didn't know this was a coop before we came here!! Take it out on the people who really did it! NOT ME!!

Recap Referee!
Hello Blog!! I missed you!! I know you are not an actual person therefore can not have feelings but how are you? I feel as if I have not spoken to you in forever!! Which is partially true!! There are soo many times in the last week I thought to myself "I should put that on my blog!!" But have sadly not had the opportunity to do so! RECAP TIME!! I had a birthday!!! Yes blog it is true!! You are looking at a bonafide 22 year old!! I know I made that sound way cooler than it actually is but I cannot help myself! I had my birthday last November and it passed rather quietly! My mom and sister took me on a shopping adventure and we got to hang out all day! Then we went and saw Box Elder High School's performance of Phantom of the Opera! It was EPIC!! Since then everything has been as it usually is... Slow moving! I still have no job and no social life but I am surviving! Oooo! Oooo! It's almost Christmas!!! Ah-aaaah!! I love Christmas! I think it is my favorite time of the year! The smell of candy, wrapping paper, new toys and smelly people pushing past you in Walmart to grab a can of cranberry sauce!! Yep Christmas is amazing!! Nothing better if you ask me!
BLOG!! I made a new friend! I almost forgot to tell you!! Well okay I should start with talking about my first new friend Dillan!! He is Epic! I told him so! Anyways Mandi became random facebook friends with him and has been for a couple years! Anyways we met him for the first time on Halloween which btw, was Awesome!! My costume was genius! So we met him for the first time and he was amazing!! Like the awesome brother we wish we had! He is soo funny and totally fits us perfectly! So now speed up to like 4 days ago! Facebook said Dillan was online so I opened up a chat with him! Well it ended up being his roommate Jonathon, who stole Dillan's computer! I ended up chatting with him all night! He is alot like Dillan in the way that they are both soo easy and fun to talk to! So we have been chatting constantly and it is awesome!! I hope I get to meet him cause he and Dillan are like my best friends!!

Epidemic
Can I just say that I am very upset with how cruel people can be!! It amazes me sometimes the insane amounts of inhumanity that people in this world can dish out towards others! It is nuts! I have stopped watching the news lately because that is all they seem to talk about! People treating people worse than abused animals!!
Just yesterday they were talking about military protests at soldier's funerals and I was shocked at how these people can go to a young man's funeral and tell his family that their child will burn in hell for protecting the country that gives them their rights!! I don't care what your feelings are about war! I hate it as much as the next person and wish it would end BUT you have NO RIGHT to go to the mourning site of a family and disrespect them and the child that they had to put in the ground! I don't care if you do it 100 yard away, next to the grave or even in the next state! You have NO RIGHT to say that a young man DESERVED to die!
Another debate is about Gay Right's and the LDS church! Yes Elder Packer said the LDS religion defines marriage as Man/Woman and yes he said it isn't right to legalize immoral unions and acts! He nor any other member of the presidency have EVER said we do not accept these people as children of God! The Gay and Lesbian community protest constantly making it sound as if we as members think them to be a disease of the earth to wipe out and take rights from! We have never denied them the right to be free to love whomever they choose but they have chosen to perform lewd acts on sacred ground and protest what we hold sacred! The church has never once responded in a rude manner towards this community and yet they constantly seek out opportunities to make "examples" of the mormons! It is insane!
Lastly and possibly the most sad is of how many young children I have seen murdered or attempted to have their young lives shorten by their parents! Young children beaten by their mother, father, step-parents and others simply because they were "annoyed" with the child's behavior! Also those parent's who have attempted and a few times suceeded to take not only their lives but their children's also! How have we sunk soo low in our time that when we turn to suicide we have to take our children to either not be alone or "protect" them?! Protection is exactly what these poor children are being denied! When will we stop the violence?
Cancer, HIV, Aids, Drugs, Alcohol! None of these compare anymore! Violence is the worst disease we have infecting our country! Until we realize this and make sufficient attempts to find and administer a "cure" we are doomed to continue infecting the populous and cutting short Lives that could have been happy, loving and fulfilled!

Limbo
So basically just a little update on what has happened since the last time I posted! Life is pretty much the same except my friendship with Cali is falling apart! I will explain it more in the near future but let's just say she has changed alot and not for the better in my opinion! I have taken to deleting her husband Jake from my friends on facebook because I don't need his poison in my life! I would rather not be associated with him! *sigh* I feel like I have a theme song for my life at the moment and that song is "Another one bites the dust" I swear I can't have friends or something! I am either extremely unlucky with friends or there is something about me that keeps me from being able to have them because just since May I have lost 3 of my dearest friends!! That can't be normal! *sigh* I don't really blame any of them for not wanting to be my friends.... I am a pitiful excuse for a person. I mean look at me! I am almost 22 years old, I have no job, I can't go to school cause I have no money, I still live with my mom and I hardly ever get to go anywhere and do anything with people my age! I am just a waste of useful air! I can't seem to get anything to change either!! I can't get a job no matter where I apply and I would go on a mission but my church records are stuck in limbo and can't seem to find their way to where I need them and besides I have never been "spiritual" enough to be accepted as a missionary anyway! Plus everyone I talk to says I can't go unless I can pay for it! So here I am still stuck and useless...
Yeah I really can't blame them for ditching me at this point.
