PO-PO

Hey everybody!!! So today i got pulled over by a cop. and i wasnt even driving!!!! hahaha i go to this weird school thats kinda like home schooling but absolutely not and i take two classes at the regular high school everyday and i have seminary every morning. i also dont have my license (let alone permit) so between seminary, (6:45 a.m to 7:35 a.m) my random Hallmark (said weird school)classes, and my fourth (11:20 a.m to 12:15 p.m) and sixth (2:10 p.m to 3:05 p.m) period classes at the high school, i find myself wandering aimlessly the street of Sanger. Thats not even the worse part!!! The worse part is that the regular Highschool has these super weird schedules and the classes don't always start at the same time so if I'll be in the middle of class at hallmark when I'm suppose to be at the Highschool!!! AND i have to walk back and forth from school to school. ITS AWFUL!!!!!! anyhow, this morning i thought id treat myself to a little Jamba Juice and a mini shopping spree at Walmart (its right across the street from the seminary building) since my first class didn't start till 9:30 today. So after i got my Jamba Juice and was heading across the parking lot toward Walmart i hear the loud buzz of a motorcycle. i casually turned around, noticed it was a Police Officer, and as i always do, smiled and waved. Well apparently he thought i was sassing him and he circled me and started questioning me about why i was'nt in school. Although i was scared out of my life, i very calmly answered all of his questions and showed him my Hallmark ID while he rolled his eyes at what im sure he thought were my "excuses". Anyway he called his boss and was trying to sound all professional and i thought for sure i was going to be swooped right off on that motorcycle of his to the police station where i would await a trial for walking to Walmart. After many "uh huh"s and "ohhh"s and "ok sir"s and "I've got a female, Walmart parking lot"s, he gave me back my ID card and buzzed off to give some old lady a parking ticket. When i called my mom to tell her what happened the best thing she could say was "Well I'm glad he was doing his job." maybe someday I'll understand parents...... maybe.......

college

yes i know that the title of this may shock some of you. but this will be my last year in highschool. hopefully. im looking into completing my junior year fall semester and my senior year spring semester; something that my school offers and that i have seen happen. and frankly, im not gona lie, i realllyyyy dont like highschool. i would love to get out of it as soon as i possibly can. im ready for singles wards and roomates and dating returned missionarries. really, boys under 19 are dumb. lets face it. its the truth. im not saying that i want to get married right now, if i find him im not going to put it off for anything. i am going to do whatever the lord wants me to do. my plan is to go away to beauty school next fall. fall 2010, not this fall, get my degree and work my way through college. hopefully BYU. of course i should probably get my drivers license, and probably my permit first but i have a little while. at least a year. yah. i know what you guys are thinking. im too young. ill get to that point and not be ready to leave or mom and dad will never let me go. and that very well may be true but for now thats my plan and im happy with my plan. im hoping that my plan is going along with heavenly fathers plan and i dont plan on ditching whatever he has in store for me for what i want so hopefully ill make the right choices. like President Hinckley said, "sometimes the inspiration we are looking for, comes from making a decision and going for it. " not sure if thats the exact quote. but its something like that. i love you all! :)

Utaww

hello fellow bloggers. as you have probably noticed, my last blog was at the beginning of april. i seriously forgot that i had a blog, let alone a sister in law who was expecting me to catch up on curent events here in utah, and to give her an opportunity to catch up with my life in sunny california. sorry rachel. anyways, here i am. im afraid i dont have very much exciting news other than my beautiful niece is being baptized and confirmed a memeber of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints today. we are in utah visiting my oldest brother, his ever so lovely wife and his precious children. the oldest is getting baptized today. i had a very trying day today. fist i couldnt get coldstone and then i couldnt have a rocky mountain chocolate factory caramel apple. i was most vexed. and i was at a shopping center where there were mainly only clothing stores. it was horrible. but then i got my caramel apple and i was very content. i even shared with my many neices and nephews. i was proud of myself. i love utah. i think i would like to live here someday. maybe.............. till next time!! if i remember.......

Dissapointed in Oprah

yesterday i was flipping through the channells (a dangerous thing to do these days) and i stopped on oprah. i thought Oprah is usually pretty fun to watch but when i realized what they were talking (more like joking) about i changed the channel and i just felt soooo angry at the world. i feel sooooo sorry for kids who are raised by the TV because i can tell you for sure that the worlds way is NOT the Lords way. Sad. thats all i can say. Sad.

boring

hello nobody!!!!!! i am a very boring blogger..... obviously. the only reason i have this blog is so that i can look at my amazingling never ending families blogs. i would write a whole long speech about obama but im afraid to die because apparently the last thing i typed about our so called "president" (hes not MY president, i will not call anyone my leader until they earn it.) was too uhhhmmmm..... strongly worded. i posted it, but it didnt show up...... (thank you Heavenly Father). anyways, somebody just really shocked me the other week. i was sitting at my friends house ranting and raving about AIG or GuaBay and i asked his sister in law for her opinion and she said " if you want to have friends, dont talk politics, and dont talk religion. " all that i could say was "WOW!!!! thats ALL i talk about!!!" HAHAHA and i still have friends soooo HA!! anywho i need my beauty rest. after all, i am turning 16 in 5 days. GOOD NIGHT!!!!!

BABY SHOWERS!!!!!!

i have been to more baby, bridal, and bachelorette parties than anyone can count. every time i think of baby showers i think of family, food, girls, and labor stories. but most of all, i think of is a home improvement episode i saw once when Jill is getting ready to throw a baby shower and Tim asks one of his mechanics what he thinks of baby showers on live television. the funny part about this is that the guy looks at him like its a question he hears every day and says, "well im against them!!!!! i think that babies should be given baths!!!" HAHAHA!!!!!! (if u dont see the humor in this thats ok, just about anything can make me laugh.) anyways i was at my cousin, robin/beandip's baby shower this morning and the way i am introduced to everybody that i dont know (a very few people) is "this is becky's daughter. the girl!!! she finally got a girl!!!!" its like im still a brand new little bundle of joy........ not that thats a bad thing.......... its just sometimes i would like to be introduced as, anna, the pretty one!!! hahahah!!! jkjkjk!!!!! im not THAT vain, but as much as i love having six brothers, noone likes to have anything rubbed in there face, even if it is good..... it just makes u feel................ idk....... not good enough? at least for me. but yah, i just got waaaaayyyy off topic. baby showers are fun!!! and we played a really fun game were we had to guess certain celebrities baby's names.... boy they had WIIIIIEEERRRRRDDDDD names....... Fifi Trixibel???????? WHAT IS THAT ALL ABOUT???? it sounds like a poodle... o wel. sorry if anyone is reading this who has a child named Fifi Trixibel..... i just think that is a hideous name. i like Blaze, and Sage, and Iris, and all kinds of wierd names that u might think are hideous. so we are even. :) ttfn!!!!!!

Ode to french fries (and oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. )

you know those foods.... the ones that you just crave like youv never craved before. well for me, those foods are....... oatmel chocolate chip coookies and french fries. today when my mama picked me up from school, i brought up how much i was craving french fries. we went to cash one of my baby sitting checks and yet again they told me that "technically" they arnt supposed to cash my checks because i have a "trust account" in fancy shmancy banker lingo this means that the account is for putting money into, not taking it out. anyways, i usually bat my eyelashes and get my money anyways, but this time was different. it made me mad because we purposely made my account so that i could cash my baby sitting checks. but nooooooooo, u hav to be at least 17 to get 12 bucks out of the bank. oh well. i sure told that banker what fer. well, getting back to my "ode" this frusteration caused my craving of french fries to get even worse so of course, my wonderful mommy took me to mcdonalds to get me some church grown french fries. we ordered a large and i ate the WHOLE thing. i was feelin pretty good until i remembered the Opra show i watched yesterday about teen obesity. it was pretty awful. so now i feel obligated to run several miles because i dont want to get fat and have to yell "IM ANGRY THAT........!!!!!!!!!!!!!" at my mommy and daddy. anyways.... french fries r good. and so are oatmel chocolate chip cookies. i ate 3 of those today. :)

best friend

i can honestly say that in all of my 15 years i have had more than one best friend. and when i say best friend i mean bosom buddies. girls that i just happen to have evrything in coomon with, we both feel totally comfortable aroung eachother and we can hardly ever be apart. but something always happened. wed get in a fight, or just move on. and as we got older, it turned into groups of freinds. and then the boys started joining our groups, and then my best firend has a boyfriend. life changes. when i was younger i wanted braces and a boy friend and a car and all these things that you get when your older, and know that im just about there, i miss the things i had when i was younger. a best friend. i know that Jesus is the best friend i will ever have, and my mom comes next. but i mean someone that is my age, that isnt perfect, that i can laugh with and cry with. and one that i can learn things with. i hope that someday i will find my best friend and i will marry him in the temple for time and all eternity, but for now all that i can do is live. as sheefu says, "yesterday is forgotten, tomorrow awaits, but today is a gift. that is why it is called "present"."

Sick on Sunday

In my opinion, there is nothing worse than being sick on sunday. Besides missing out on the three hours of my day that are spent at church, i cant visit family, bake or eat cookies. You have to waste the whole day sleepinmg and watching old testament movies until everyone gets home from church and then you cant even sing!!!!! i havnt been able to sing for over 2 weeks. it is sooooooooo frusterating. if you are reading this, please pray for me that i will be able to sing again and that i will be well before next sunday.

Baby sitting

baby sitting is pretty much amazing. im babysitting right now and it is sooooo kool what kids can teach you!! kids are sooooo much smarter than most people give them credit for. and there imaginations...... wow. i wish that i could still have a mind like that. kids are so honest and open minded and sweet and they are just like little adults that are always happy. (temper tantrums aside.) i guess i shouldnt really be talking because i dont have any kids yet but i think that children are amazing. i can see why heavenly father made childhood the first stage of our life; its the happiest time. :)

high school

high school is undescribable. (if thats even a word) high school is unexpected, and nerve racking, and fun, and dramatic, and cool. there are sooooo many people and although im not a freshman anymore.... it still blows my mind how different everyone is. there are people that go to your school that you may not ever see in your life. its insane. but there are soooo many people that you know that it seems almost impossible to remember everyones' name. i took algebra in 8th grade and geometry freshmen year then i went to algebra 2 (advanced algebra) and it was almost impossible for me to do beacase i hadnt really learned much algebra in 8th grade so now im back in algebra 1 (beginning algebra). i LOVE it!!!! it issss soooooooooooo easy!!!! (compared to algebra 2) although it disgusts me how often i hear profanity (mainly the F word) and/or people talking about how high they were over the weekend. high school amazes me. if you delete all the unfortunate people who have chosen to destroy their futures.... there are ALOT of unique, crazy, really good kids everywhere u go. im grateful for amazing people. :)

What if...???

hey everybody!! i know i just wrote a blog but i forgot to tell you about this uber fun new game i learned!!! its called "what if" ill explain it. everyone sits in a circle or at a table or whatever pleases you. then you pass out a little piece of paper and a pen to all players. evryone thinks of a random question that starts with what if... after everyone is done writing there question, you collect the papers, mix them up and pass them out. everybody answers the question that they get, then you mix them up and pass them around again. then the fun starts!! you read the question on your paper, but the person to your left/right answers it with the answer on there paper!!! it is soooooo fun!!! the scary part is that most of the question/answer combinations actually work!!! HOPE YOU HAVE FUN!!!!

<3,

Who am i?

HEY EVERYONE!!!!! i have not yet told anyone about my blog sooooo if you are reading this you are a lucky 1st person to be on my site. :) i just want to talk a bit about my amazing family. i am the youngest of 7 and the only girl. yes, i have 6 big brothers. actually i think of myself as lucky because i heard of a girl who had 6 older brothers and 6 younger. HA yah.... its insane, i know. thats gona be my family some day. :) i cant wait!!! well my oldest brother is jarom and he is married to rachel. they have 4 beautiful children and rachel recently started her own blog. ( she inspired me) next down is curtis who is married to stephanie. they have one adorable daughter and curtis is very tech savvy (all of the boys are) but curtis actually has his own website. yep. oh and btw "the boys" is how i will refer to my brothers. after curtis is ivan who is maried to sandy. they have one daughter and another one on the way. CONGRADULATIONS!!!!!! then comes hans, russell, conrad and then ME!! anna marie. my favorite color is purple, i love to sing, dance, cook, cut hair, do hair/makeup, play the piano, violin, and guitar... a very little guitar.. and i am working on learning and cultivating soooo many other talents that i have been blessed with. i recently found a new hidden talent. ART. i have always loved nature and looking at things that heavenly father created. it has always amazed me how each and every flower is different. but soooo beautiful. i used to love to color but iv always been a stinky artist. im one of those people who happens upon Bob Ross one day on PBS then picks up a paint brush and makes a beautiful mess. anyways, i walked into the art room at my school one day and asked if i could color, so the teacher, mr.nighty (he is AMAZING) got me all set up and taught me how to do pastels.
it was really fun so i decided to try water color then oil and i realized how much i love it. art is an amazing way to show the way you see things. its like, taking a perfect picture and making it on paper. for everyone to see. and i love colors!!! i have always loved colors so i hope to be painting well into my elderly age. i will post the two pictures that i am most proud of. the light house was my first water color and is hanging in our hallway, and the tree was my firt oil. i have it to my grandma severin for christmas. i hope you see something beautiful in them.
