New Blog

Well I kinda figured as I'm getting married in 2 months I would make a new blog, one for the both of us. I doubt Matt will post on it, but I will keep you all updated on the new blog "Our New Adventure". So here's the link for those of you who are interested... I'm still working on getting it set up and its probably gonna be a slow process as we're super busy with Wedding planning and then I have work and my final year assignments and dissertation to write plus he has uni too. Oh and not forgetting our church callings! On a side note, time is going crazy fast and I am very excited to spend eternity with my best friend!! Less than 9 weeks to go!! xx

Oh wait, link:

New Job


I'm actually really enjoying it at Claire's so far. The girls I work with are great and I've already picked up on most of the customer service stuff. I've also been trained on the till (wooo lol) Just ear piercing training to go... little nervous about that.

ENGAGED!!!

Here was me thinking it'd be at least a couple weeks before I would be telling this story but... here it is because
MATT AND I ARE ENGAGED!!!! :D

So, he did on Monday... He took me to the park we used to go to all the time (I thought it was for our 3 year anniversary) and he told me he had something for me and it was a letter... addressed as if he was still on his mission. I read about half of it and got all excited so hugged him so I missed the last bit that said he had a question for me haha! So then he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him!!! :D of course I said yes ;) then we went to the car because it was raining really hard and he had schloer and chocolates for me :D Aw how I love him!! Then we travelled to my house to tell my family and while there we took some photos - they're on my facebook page - then after that we went ring shopping!!!! (he had used my CTR/Promise ring when he proposed!) So I got to choose my ring and I absolutely love it.

I especially love my fiancé!!! AHHH!!! :D

Oh and as long as all goes to plan... the date is set for December 11th! 4 months and we'll be married!!!!! :D

Starting BMI = 24.7
Current BMI = 24.5
Target BMI = 22.3
Ideal BMI = between 18.5 to 25

25 Things

1. I like cheese way too much. I would go cold turkey on cheese and kick my addiction but I don't think I would last long.

2. When I like a song, I will play it over and over and over until I get bored and find a new 'favourite' song... much to the delight of those who spend a lot of time with me :)

3. I am a cat person all the way. Dogs suck.

4. I'm very family orientated. I talk about my family loads because they mean the world to me. I want a big family of my own someday :)

5. I'm a hopeless romantic. A film is not a good film unless someone falls in love and gets to kiss that person at the end. Well, ok I like other films... But they're the best kind!

6. Sometimes I honestly just can't hear what you're saying, my hearing is not so good. I'm not ignoring you!

7. You know how old people say when you're in High School you shouldn't moan because later you'll say "they were the best years of my life" - I don't agree. College was way better, and University is even better still.

8. I usually do well in school/college/uni work but I never seem to feel like its good enough.

9. I am in love with the most amazing man I have ever met and he comes home from his Mission in ONLY 5 WEEKS! Yes of course I had to have one of my facts about Elder Roberts ;) But you should be grateful its only one :P

10. I chose Chemistry as one of my AS's because I did well in it at school. Errr yeah, not so much in college. I left college hating Chemistry.

11. I have this thing about odd/even numbers. Everything has to be an even number (even the volume on the TV) unless its a multiple of 5, then that's ok.

12. I don't like sweets. Yes, I'm being serious.

13. I find murder mystery/ghost mystery programmes really interesting. I like to try and figure out 'who dun it' before the characters or why the ghost is haunting whoever they're haunting.

14. I really want a pet and I can't have one right now, but I torment myself by going to places like Pets At Home to look at the animals.

15. I don't really like shopping much. Sometimes, if I'm in the mood for it I enjoy it but... it doesn't last long haha - that's an improvement by the way! I used to hate shopping. I even preferred food shopping other shopping.

16. My favourite day of the week usually depends on the post.

17. My dream job would be in a Orangutan Orphanage in Borneo or Sumatra.

18. I love hugs :)

19. My biggest fear is being alone with no loved ones around me.

20. I have a horrible scar on my left ring finger and when something brushes against it, it sends a shiver down my spine. Its so annoying.

21. I like scrapbooking! My housemate's used to give me wrappers and ribbons etc. off things they bought or received because they knew I would use them :)

22. Part of the reason I chose Salford University is so I could be closeish to home. Now my family are moving to Kent! Guess that plan didn't work out haha.

23. I don't read the usual women's magazines like Heat and OK! and Cosmopolitan and Elle. I buy Wildlife! (that's what the mag is called ;])

24. My favourite colour is purple.

25. I like using smileys, even in letters :)

I have an Announcement!

Today, marks the day when Matthew's LAST TRANSFER starts and this makes me very excited! Just 6 weeks to go! Oh my gosh... I thought this moment would NEVER come. But it has! :D


In other news... I love my new home! My room is so nice and I live with great people! I taught the RS lesson on Sunday and it didn't seem to be the disaster I imagined it would be :P, I'm feeling really organised right now - I've been applying for jobs, I don't need to go food shopping, my room is tidy... enough, I don't have any work I need to get done... Time to relax! I'm a little bored already though :P haha. Hopefully I'm going to the Stake House tonight to help decorate for the Rose Prom though. That'll be good!

Monday 5 July 2010

One week.

Its been a while sorry guys. Despite finishing uni for the summer, I've been surprisingly busy! Not that I'm complaining because it makes time go faster ;)
So what have I been doing? Working mostly at my Student Ambassador job and at Pizza Hut. I'm looking for another job though so that's definately keeping me busy with that too! I've also tried to make a start on packing because I move in a week. Crazy times. I can't believe I moved out from home A YEAR ago. What the heck? Oh and I've been spending a lot of time with my friends and enjoying the occasional mini heat-waves we've been having. Hey and I turned 20 last Wednesday too! Had a great day, thank you to everyone who sent me wall posts/cards/texts! I appreciated them all :)
So there you go! A quick update of my life!
Just to finish up, the Roberts forwarded Elder Roberts's email of the week today and he wrote a little spiritual thought near the end about how as children of God; we ALL have unmeasurable potential! If we rely on the Lord, we can do great things. I just liked it so thought I'd share :)

My New Hobby

I've discovered whilst procrastinating revision that I really enjoy editing photos. I wish I was good enough to do photography or something like that. That would be the awesomest job ever!! Haha. I've made 10:

but if you can't be bothered to look... ;) Here's my favourite one!

Models: my good friends Aubrey and Oscar

Feeling the Heat


Woah its too hot! Its so nice to finally see the sun though! Its made revision especially difficult. But I'll just compromise and *erm, attempt to* revise in the sun! Only 1 week to go, then I can properly enjoy this weather! So excited :)
