celebrity look alike...emma stone??

the other day a beautiful gal named kristi johnson commented on my facebook that i looked a lot like emma stone! i commented back stating...thank you but she is a lot prettier than me! she then commented...i think you are both pretty!! {{not exact words but something along those lines!}} it totally made my day! so i decided to photoshop some pictures of us together and see what people think??

i think we would look even more alike if i lost those 30 lbs i am wanting to lose but i see where kristi is coming from and really enjoyed photoshoping these collages!! :)) SO WHAT DO YOU THINK??

happiness :)))



life definitely has its ups and It's downs!! no matter where you are in life there will always be good days...bad days...good weeks...bad weeks...and so on! i have had my fair share of these moments and there are going to be hundreds more in my life time! the bad times used to get me down and make the moments seem to last forever! with time i have learned ways of coping with those bad moments and living the good ones to the fullest!!

i feel like the best lessons are to find the positive in every situation...find something that made me happy everyday and write it down...remember who i am and never let anyone change that...if i can achieve those simple goals every single day the bad moments aren't as bad as they seem...life is happier...and the bad moments don't haunt my memories in the future!

i have found that the hardest to achieve daily is always staying positive! some days and some situations are tough and i find myself complaining! most of the things i start complaining about are things i really have no control over!

on tuesday there was a conversation in my psychology class {which i am absolutely loving!!} that really got me thinking!! we were asked questions and had to answer them honestly! one of those questions was what was our biggest pet peeve! seems like an easy question right?? well some interesting answers and discussions formed! one woman said...i hate it when people complain about things they can't change! of course everyone had their opinions but it really made me realize how silly it is to complain at all!! if you can't control it there is no reason to get worked up on it! as soon as you start complaining your mind keeps thinking about it and you just get upset! and if you complain about something you can control but choose not to do anything about it, you just get stressed out! honestly what is the point! we fall asleep and a new day starts! most of my stress in life has been caused by complaining but not doing anything about it!!

by staying positive...finding something everyday that makes me happy and writing it
down...remembering who i am and not letting anyone change that, i will live a happier life that progresses forward and doesn't dwell in the past!!

i am also going to set a goal to help someone everyday!! whether that is something little or life changing! you never know what a smile or a compliment can do for someone's day! it just
might be that one thing in their day that they could write down made them happy!!

i am going to do everything i can in all aspects of life and leave what is not meant to be alone!!

i am going to love with all my heart and let the ones i love know i loves them every single day! life is way to short to let one day go by without love!

i am going to set little goals everyday and make sure i reach them so i can go beyond my long term life goals!

i am going to be happy with my life and live it to the fullest!! HAPPINESS!!! :))

**excited for where life is going**





on monday i officially decided to start the medical assisting program at stevens henegar! i am really excited about it! i go in for a registration meeting on thursday at 4 pm and orientation is at 6 pm that same day! {{hoping that everything works out, like finances and schedule}} classes will start on monday the 31st from 6pm to about 8:30 pm! and if i pass a reading test on monday i will only have to go to classes on monday and wednesdays for the first couple of months! i am really excited about this! i am planning on moving to ogden the first of june so i am starting in the ogden campus, which means a little bit of a commute for a while but it will all be worth it! i am just excited to have the social aspect of school again and also be able to do something that i am interested in!

because it will be night classes, that does mean i will have to quit at icon! i just got the job in december so that is kind of stressful and crappy but if everything works out with the grant i am hopefully getting, it should all work out fine! i can't wait for the program to be done so i can start a salary job that has benefits and the future won't look as scary! :)) i will be able to work with people daily and work in an environment that is interesting and fun!

i had a doctor's appointment last friday and while i was standing on the dreadful scale {{weight will not be spoken}} i asked the medical assistant doing it how she liked her job?? she couldn't stop talking about how much she liked it and how fun it is! it got me really excited! that is what finalized it in my mind and got me to actually call come monday! it is going to be a lot of work and probably stressful at times but in the long run so rewarding!

i will make sure to keep my blog updated with what is going on with everything and i hope to get some loves along the way! keep me motivated and focused! :))

HURRAY FOR LIFE! :)))
