I've been thinking lately that, quite possibly, blogging isn't for me. I really love to read the blogs of all my family and friends. I'm just feeling like I have nothing noteworthy to say and I don't often do anything very exciting. So, there's not much to share. Unfortunately, I'm not very creative in my writing. Humor is something I enjoy but don't, myelf, express well.
Anyway, I've been desperately trying to think about something I could share that would be worthwhile. This is what I've come up with this week.
Les Miserables is one of my absolute most favorite things in the world. I have read every version of the book, seen the movies and have witnessed a live performance on 2 two seperate occasions. Tomorrow, a day that I have been waiting for for months now, is to add a 3rd experience of this great production. For those of you who are familiar with Tuacahn - the outdoor theatre just outside of St. George, is where this experience is to take place. However, the weather reports are saying thunder storms all weekend, and I am just crossing my fingers that it won't ruin this opportunity. As much as I love the rain and know that we need it, I just want to see Les Mis. I know, I'm horrible.
Anyway, that's what I've been excited for. Any Les Mis fans out there?

A mixture of things I have and haven't done
I have not pulled away with the gas pump still in my tank. I have solved a rubik's cube in less than an hour. I have cried after getting a bad grade on a test or paper. I have been so hurt by something someone said about me that I cried. I have been so grateful it made me cry. I have been in a marching band. I have wanted to express my feelings but was too afraid of the reaction. I have tripped up the stairs. I have not snuck out of my parents house in the middle of the night. I have felt alone in a room full of people. I have not spent all night on you-tube. I have bought a pair of Converse All Star shoes. I have thought of joining the military. I have flown in a helicopter. I have not driven without a license. I have watched The Sound of Music more than 10 times. I have not scuba dived. I have not been in a physical fight. I have played the saxophone. I have not been hypnotized. I have not pretended to forget my wallet so I didn't have to pay. I have been to Europe. I have shot a gun. I have not gotten so angry I screamed on the top of my lungs. I have read a book 10 times. I have not purchased something on eBay. I have made clothes. I have been to New York. I have performed on stage. I have had an operation. I have not forgotten someone's name more than 3 times in one night. I have been to an opera. I have wished I could fly. I have not eaten gum off the ground. I have been in a car accident. I have been to a ballet. I have not lied about my age. I have not slept with the light on after watching a scary movie. I have not bungee jumped. I have not danced in the rain. I have not slept for more than 15 hours in one day. I have not sky-dived. I have not talked on the phone for more then 5 hours. I have watched a movie so many times I knew every line. I have sung along to a song with no idea what the actual words were. I have not run a marathon. I have pretended everything was alright when it wasn't. I have gone swimming in my clothes. I have not laid in bed the whole day watching movies. I have caught a fish. I have not fallen off of a horse. I have fallen asleep on a bus. I have not gone more than 48 hours without food. I have ridden a roller coaster. I have made snow angels. I have swam in the ocean. I have watched a movie over 10 times. I have traveled out of the country. I have not paid someone to do my homework. I have not accidentally called someone else the wrong name. I have not pushed on a door that said pull. I have wished I could turn back time. I have not stayed up for over 24 hours. I have been friends with the same people for over 3 years. I have broken a bone.

Thinking of some good times...
Recently I have been reflecting on the college days. I guess, because another school year is coming to a close. Excitement is in the air, for those recent graduates. A whole life to look forward to. All this has taken my thoughts back to Logan and my days spent at the one and only Utah State University. May I just say, I love Logan. It is like home. I have missed it since the day I left. Sad to say that I haven't been back to Logan since my own graduation day. Sad, very sad. As, I thought about USU and all the fun times, I couldn't help but think of the fight song. You've just gotta love it. Right AGGIES!!!

Movies...
Anybody seen any good movies lately, Old/New???
Just wondering...
I love movies, but it seems I haven't been to the theatre in a long while.
A few of my recent favorites, new DVD releases, are Dan in Real Life, August Rush and Juno. I really love all of those and have watched them more times than I care to admit. Also, a few weeks ago I watched, Sydney White, which was predictable and silly. But, I enjoyed it. My sister pretty much thinks it should have won best movie of the year. But then, you have to know my sister. She also has the entire Legally Blonde movie memorized. Which, I'm not saying is a bad thing. Legally Blonde is a great movie. And, my sister is AMAZING, truly!!!
Just looking for suggestions, if you have any.
