5. Finding out that the shirt I'd been wearing all day belongs

TO ONE OF MY GUY FRIENDS!!!!

And it wasn't even him who told me!!!

He was too embarrassd!

So his friend (who I don't get along with very well) comes up to me and basically embarasses the heck out me by telling me that I was wearing his best friend's shirt.

Nice.

HOW IN THE WORLD DID IT GET TO MY HOUSE?????????

HOW IN THE WORLD WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW IT WAS HIS?????????

Ugh.

On the bright side...if there even is one

I got my new(to me) ipod today!

$96 bucks on Ebay.

Love!!!!

Disneyland Uncovered

So I've mentioned several times that I, RatalieNose, have issues with Disneyland.

Several people have requested that I post about these issues.

But here's the thing, the majority of the beefs that I have with

The Happiest Place on Earth

all have to do with my own stupidity, idiocy, hypocrisy ect. ect.

So for the past month I've been trying to buck up the courage to write this.

But before I start I need ya'll to promise me two things:

1. That you won't think less of me after hearing what an awful person I am.

2. That you won't think I'm an idiot for making a mountain out of a molehill.

This stuff may not seem big to some of you, but to an extremely emotional teenage girl, this is BIG STUFF!!!

All right.

I'm ready.

Lets start with the less personal things.1. Look at this map! The place is HUGE right?

K, I'm five 2.

My legs are short.

And not muscular.

By the end of a day at this place, the lower half of my body is in MISERY!!!!!!

Not to mention, that I"m hot, sweaty and grumpy from lines longer than The Great Wall of China!!!!!

2. Last time I was there, I nonchalantly, got on the ride Indiana Jones.

I took off my back pack that had my:

1. Camera

2. Wallet

3. Money

4. And array of other personal items

in it and

FORGOT TO PUT IT IN THE HOLDER!!!!!!!!

SO GUESS WHAT???????

MY BAG FELL OFF THAT BLASTED JEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH PS THE CAMERA WASN'T EVEN MINE PERSONALLY!!!!!

Thankfully, due to many prayers, the ride broke down later and they were able to fish it out of the dark tunnel and I was able to retrieve it before heading home.

So, yeah, my fault.

But I"m still bitter.

3. Now my biggest issue with Disneyland,

isn't even Disneyland's fault at all.

It just happenED to take place there.

But it is the reason that I will forever have bitterness in my heart when I think of it.

I lost my best friend there.

No, we didn't get seperated physically.

No she didn't die.

But I made one of the biggest mistakes of my life and broke my best friend's heart.

Her name was Roxy.

(not really but too protect her personal life we shall call her that.)

She was hilarious, fun loving, trustworthy, loyal...everything you could want in a best friend!

She had a HUGE crush on Eric

(again, name change)

I knew how much she liked Eric.

I knew perfectly well.

And yet.

I flirted it up!

And not just like

"Oh tee hee stupid girl flirting"

But hard core touchy feely, constant flirting.

RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER!

I HELD HIS HAND!!!!!

MY BEST FRIEND'S DREAM BOY!!!!!

Needless to say....

Our friendship went out the window.

A qoute from Roxy:

"Natalie you were my best frined and I dont want a boy,of all things, to make us stop being friends. but I dont think that we can ever be as good of friends as we were, I trusted you alot, I would have put my life in your hands I trusted you so much. but I have lost my trust in you."

Yeah, I don't know about you, but reading that, even now two years later, that breaks my heart.

So there you have it.

Why Disneyland is not the Happiest Place on Earth for me.

P.S.

None of those girls are Roxy.

This picture was taken on the day I lost my backpack.

And All My Plans Went Up In Smoke

So I had every intention of writing a BITTER, CYNICAL post all about the evils of Valentines day.

But then I read this.

And this.

And I changed my mind.

Instead,

take a gander at some of the people I love the very most!

My Lil' Sister Annie Uma

This girl is one of the sweetest, silliest, cutest people you'll ever meet!!!!

Without even asking, she'll do little things that'll make me smile!

Clean the room, leave me notes, and let me pick her up and swing her around! My Big Sister Emily.

I could write an entire book on how amazing this girl is!

She's four years older than I am, and growing up, that difference seemed HUGE!

But now, I realize just how close we can be!

We've had so many good times:

*Midnight talks

*Massage sessions

*Shopping

*Dancing like idiots but thinking we were the bomb!

Just to name a few!

Emily is beautiful, generous, brave and one of the strongest girls ever.

Whatever comes her way, she makes the most out of it!

I thank Heavenly Father for sending my big sister into my life!!!!

Now for this girl: my Big Sister Kim

So she's not my sister by blood....

But she might as well be!

Being Emily's best friend for all these years has drawn her into our family quite a bit!

This summer, Emily went away to Cali for work, so it was me and Kim!

She was always there for me...still is.

I can tell her all my high school drama and she doesn't look at me like I'm stupid!

Now lets talk about strength.

If anyone has it, Kim does.

There isn't anything she can't do!

Day in and day out she keeps at it no matter how hard it is!!!

(I have 2 other AMAZING sisters. But they'll come in a different post.)

I love these girls SO much!

I'm so blessed to have them in my life!

So I guess there may be some point to this day afterall......

Yes I'm Lame

Yeah I know.

Two posts within ten minutes of each other.

But you know what??

I don't care!

Yay!

Anywho.

The first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive a gift from me during this year. When and what will be a surprise. There's a small catch though...Post this same thing on your own blog and then come back and leave a comment telling me you're in. Fun, huh? Remember, only the first 3 comments receive the gift!

Too Bitter for Words

My intense HATRED for Valentine's Day has increased ten fold, I'll most likely get on my soap box about it tomorrow since it is the BLASTED day! So in the mean time, go take a gander at

This giveaway.

And for your viewing pleasure:

Some random pictures!

The Most Pointless Holiday of the Year.

Josh Holloway

AkA

James Sawyer

Did someone just turn the heat up in here?

Oh wait.

That's him.

Yes, you are a scoundrel.

But you're beautiful.

And brave.

And strong.

The End.

George Clooney

The man is Timeless!

He looks just as good now as he did twenty years ago!

Oh David Archuleta

I fasted and prayed for you to win AI last season.

Well actually I didn't.

I should have.

Anywho.

Love you,

Love your voice,

Love that your speaking voice is higher than mine.

NameLessHunkofHotttness!

Now, this wouldn't be a post about the best men ever if I didn't include these guys!

The Handsome Specimen on the left is my big brother Brent.

He's one of the funniest, most thoughtful and hard working guys I've ever met.

When I was 8 and he was 16, he Baptized me into the Church.
While serving his mission in Brazil, he sent me the greatest letters that truly inspired me!

With his wit, charm and hard work he can accomplish anything!

Now the guy on the right.

That's my daddy.

I'd call him Super Dad but that would be the understatement of the year!

There isn't anything this man can't do!

As if being the father of 7 wasn't enough, he's also always serving in the Church and is the BEST Papo

(grandpa in Hawaiian) Ever to his 3 (almost 4) beautiful grandchildren!

There isn't anything my Dad wouldn't do for his family!
He's always there to give love, counsel and advice even when its been a long hard day.

So Zac and all them may be cute,

But they've got nothin on the men in my life!

I'm Baaaack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So my hiatus wasn't very long at all.

You're welcome.

I'm sure you were all just pining away.

Now to explain this post.

One of my most favourite hobbies is analyzing people.

Deciding what they would be, if they weren't themselves.

For example: If I were a utensil, I'd be a butter knife.
Why?

Because I can be useful, dull, and good looking all at the same time.

It's a gift.

So anywho.....

The people who commented on that post are going to get themselves analyzed by yours truly.

So first we have.......................

Molly!!!!

Oh how I love this woman!

She makes me feel so good when I read her comments that ARE ALWAYS THERE!

And her daughter is precious.

Ok.

If Molly were an animal I think she'd be a: Cardinal.

If Molly were a color she'd be: Red.

Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out.

If Molly were a food she'd be: Hot TaMollys

Hahahahaha I'm so punny!


Next we have..............

Geneva

Big big fan of hers.

Not only because her blog is thoroughly entertaining,

But she also teaches science.

I'm horrid at science.

So I have alot of respect for anyone who can do it.

If Geneva were a color: She'd be aqua blue.

If Geneva were a day of the week: I think she'd be Wednesday.

I don't know why.

If Geneva were an adejective: She'd be Brave.

Why?

Becuase she teaches Jr. High!

Jr. High is HORRID.

Jr. High kids are HORRID!

You have to be tough to deal with that kind of torture!

Next on our line up of FABULOUS people is..........

Bekah

Aka my twin that happens to be 11 years older than I am.

Well we may look alike, but I'd be giving myself a huge compliment if I said that we acted alike.

I look up to her more than I can tell you.

There's nothing that this woman can't do.

So if Bekah were a superhero

(which she already is Super Mom)

She'd be: WONDERWOMAN!

If Bekah were a day of the week she'd be Saturday.

She's a doer.

And if Bekah was a Greek Goddess she would most definently be

Athena

"Goddess of wisdom, warfare, handicrafts and reason."

So basically the Queen of Everything!

I hope you haven't dozed off on me yet, we only have two more!
Holly Janeen
This girl is so talented!

Voice of a song bird!

So if Holly were an animal: She'd be a Lark.

If Holly were a plant she'd be a....wait for it....yes.

Holly would be a holly plant.

Yes I'm so original I know.

And if Holly Janeen was an article of clothing:

She'd be a scarf.

And last but DEFINENTLY NOT LEAST we have.....

Yes folks,

That's right,

We have the Nancy Face.

If you haven't read NancysNonsenseofNothingness you need to go repent.

Now.

So anywho...

If Nancy was a character from Twilight, she'd be a nutty version of Esme.

Yes I know what you're thinking.

Huh?

No she wouldn't!

But just think about it, Esme loves to renovate and design and make things beautiful

and have you SEEN all the projects Nancys done for Lauren's house?

Also, Esme loves passionately and would do anything for her family, and if you can't tell that the same can be said of Nancy, then you're stupid.

Well actually you just need your eyes checked.

And your brain.

But that's besides the point.

So Yeah just add some major Nuttiness and you've got NancEsme.

Genius.

Also if I were to rename Nancy, I would christen her: Bathilda.

If Nancy were a body part she'd be a face.

Ha. Ha. Ha.

This Is Not Abandonment

It's "Natalie's having 'One of THOSE Weeks'" and so she is taking a brief hiatus.

My sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

The reason for this post at all?

The author of my

FavoriteBlogofAllTime

once advised me to post freuently and regularly.

And since I will be doing neither for the time being I thought I'd let ya'll know so that I don't lose my few faithful readers!

So anywho,

Happy Trails,

May the Good Lord Bless You and Keep You

and so on

and so forth.
