Song of the Night

So this is my best friend Tim. We've been friends for awhile now and go way back. If anyone really knows  high school Emily it's for sure this man. Honestly, he's been there with me through a lot and can always make me laugh. But check him out, this is just one of his videos! 

I still remember in High School just sitting there watching him and Austin have jam sessions, i think my love for guitar stemmed a lot from them :) So enjoy! 

Up and Up Cover.

Adventure Man

Ladies and Gentlemen,

We would like to introduce you to Adventure Man a.k.a. Cowboy. Our Blog needed a little bit of manliness so Chris took it upon himself to add an adventurous twist. So without further ado,

Adventure Man went hunting last weekend and took some videos for us,

And then the Deer Hunt began,


And let's not mention the beautiful view they had all weekend! 

Although he didn't bag anything that weekend he still had a great time camping and taking videos for us :D

This weekend he went hunting again but only brought back pictures of the fantastic view! 

 He also bagged a rabbit this weekend, that most likely looked exactly like this...


Video Seis

After a crazy week Charls and I bring to you VIDEO SEIS. Enjoy!



On another note: One of our next posts is going to be introducing someone great to our blog! Our blog will have it's first ever guest, and he will be joining us from time to time. Wait and see followers, waiiiiit and see :) 

also: bloopers, if you are thaaaat bored

Durian Chips

So i went to the Asian Market today with the Beast Gang- that's what we call ourselves...blame Katy. It was David, Charls, Katy, Mike and I. I had been earlier in the day with Kaily and had seen the Durian Chips, but talked myself out of them. When i went with the Beast Gang i saw them once again and i said "Just do it." because i had kind of like Durian when i tried the actual fruit. I asked the cashier lady if they were any good and she gave me a really really concerned look.

"I guess it depends..." 
"If i like Durian??"
"Yeah....I don't so i can't really tell you" 

So i bought them and was curious beyond belief. When we got home i tried them....
AND I ACTUALLY REALLY REALLY LIKED THEM. Who knew right? So Durian Chips are a new favourite. 9/10. I got Mike and Becca to try them with me too :) David and Charls wouldn't try them though, sticks in the mud i'm telling you. 



So that's our Friday night: Corn maze, jam session, and Asian Markets! 

Introduciiiiiiinnnnnnng KATY

This is what happens when Emily is sick and Katy is bored.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired

I woke up this morning feeling like someone punched me in my throat and like someone won't stop talking in my head. Fantastic right? Especially when David is here visiting...i can't really get near him because ever since he got hit by a car he has a problem with getting sick, he gets sick pretty easily.

For all of you that are a little behind on the whole David story: He is one of my best friends from High School and is here in Provo visiting. I haven't seen him in a little over 2 years so last night was kind of crazy. I kept having to poke him to make sure he was really there. It's fantastic  having him here, he is the other half of my Portland hipsterness. He is here for a week and a half-ish.

 He came over this morning because he was going to go to classes with me but i just looked at him and let out this pathetic scratchy laugh. Instead he is in classes with Charls right now, Physics vs Theatre Makeup. Poor kid, although i do want to take him to help me with the play on Saturday :) Once Katy, Charls, and David left my room mate came up to me and goes "In a non creepy way...i want you guys to know that you are highly entertaining. I was listening to you this morning and cracking up."

Right now it's snowing hard core and i'm really really really really happy! I LOVE THE SNOW. Although it's super cold, i just love watching the snow fall from my window right now. It's beautiful and fluffy and there is honestly nothing better. For those of you who know me really well you know that i love snow. It brings me comfort in a really weird way, and honestly there is nothing better than walking in the night when it's snowing or it's just snowed. It lights up the world and suddenly the world is quite and peaceful. I still remember one night in Heritage where i was walking home at 2 in the morning and i was at utter peace, not scared at all, because it was so beautiful. Snow has a lot of memories for me, and i love each and every one of them.

So yeah, when i'm sick i watch Doctor Who,drink gallons of tea, and usually eat very little. David wouldn't have it though, he is coming home around 1 with Katy(after she gets out of her plant lab) and is making me Tuscan Tomato Soup :D I seriously have one of the best friends ever!

I'm going to go take a nap.
Also- it's freaking cold in my apartment. Right now is one of those times i wish i had Jorge :(

ON a totally random tangent-but a needed one because i gotta vent- OH MY HEAVENS. When a girl is friends with a guy is does NOT mean that she likes him, wants to be with him ect. ect. so boys, calm it down. it means she wants to be friends nada mas! heavens to betsy. you have no idea whats going on in her life, maybe just maybe she's at a point in her life that she doesn't have time for that and has other things going on in her life. but that would mean you would actually have to not jump to conclusions, and heaven forbid we do that.

Music Memories

I was thinking about music this morning and i saw this quote,

"It's funny how a melody sounds like a memory"

So what are some memories that I have that are tied to music?

The End-Linkin Park. My sister and I are 10 years apart, but she passed on her music taste of Linkin Park. I still remember rolling down the windows in our Ford Ranger and blasting Hybrid Theory. This was our favourite song and i knew all the words.

Speed up to Summer 2011 and suddenly i'm in a huge crowd of people and the only light is coming from the stage. I'm with my cousins friend Jeff trying to find our group and we are racing between people to see who can get the closest to the stage. That night was perfection, and it was a fantastic concert, it makes me think of San Francisco. 

One Winter day i was walking home and making a kind of important decision, and i remember being afraid of what would happen. Then this song came on my ipod, i was right by the Riviera and a smile just broke out of my face. I knew it was going to be ok, and this song gave me a lot of confidence.


Then i'm in SLC with Kevin and Alissa, relaxing, and eating a fantastic vegetarian sandwich. Suddenly it's night time, the smell of weed wafting through the air haha and we are all standing singing with Justin Vernon. I looked around and the light of the stage lit up everyone's faces as we whispered the words and eventually were shouting them.


The memory attached to this song is this-  I have a bad breakup on my hands, and i can't sleep because my mind won't shut up. It was late late late at night and i was exhausted and still couldn't manage to fall asleep. I stuck in my headphones and put them to full blast- Kid Cudi playlist. My mind couldn't think and finally i fell asleep.


I'm laughing so hard just thinking about this song. Rachel. I would listen to this song before hanging out with a guy that i liked to calm me down and Rach and i would blast it and dance. Not to mention random dance parties in the car ahaha pair this with Safety Dance and it's perfection. I love this song so much.


When this comes on Charls and I blast it. Why? Because it's a fun, upbeat song!


I'm standing on a stage at our Ward Campfire thing and there is some random guy standing next to me that i've never met holding a guitar. I was paying attention to a lot of other people until he started playing A-Punk. "Wait...was that A-Punk by Vampire Weekend?!?!?"


I seriously can't listen to this song anymore at all. Why? Because i bust up laughing as soon as he opens with 'Boom'. Yeah, there is a memory attached, but no, you don't get to know ahaha.



Whenever i hear this song a bunch of memories from Summer 2010 run through my mind. Me stirring Spaghetti and my friend is dancing to it while making faces at me from the couch. Then him juggling to it and dancing at the Ward Talent Show. Then suddenly i remember the fact that we had two Justin Bieber posters on our window that year.


These are just a couple that i can remember right now, but all in all, music is a big deal in my life. I've grown up with it all around me...and it's made a difference in my life. I write it, i sing it, and i experience it. 

The Pictures Charls Referenced.






i am hiliarious. 

My day in a nutshell: OWNED a makeup challenge my friend alissa gave me- pictures later. Conquered fake eyelashes, work, then performing a monologue, the library with spenc, then the opera-crazy as usual, dealing with opera students, catching up with a friend that i haven't talked to in awhile-which was fantastic, getting my hairs done by michael, and listening to music.

it's days like these that i miss Jorge :(

Glad All Over.

Last night, Em went on a "tigga" rampage.  So, this morning as I was listening to my regular round of Jay-Z, all I could think about was the parade of images that are currently occupying my Facebook page.  She's kind of hilarious.

The point here is that I needed something else to listen to this morning; Tigga just wasn't doing it for me this morning.

Earlier this month, The Wallflowers released Glad All Over.  I finally got around to listening to it today.  Basically, I really like it.  A lot.

I remember when "Reboot the Mission" was released over the summer.  I've been excited to hear the new album ever since.

Also, Mick Jones is featured on the album.  So awesome.

So far, my personal favorites are:
Misfits and Lovers
Have Mercy on Him Now
The Devil's Waltz
It's a Dream

Check it out:

I'M SO FREAKIN' EXCITED.

so today i had a lot of exciting things happen already. TAYLOR SWIFT came out with her new album. Taylor Swift is my guilty pleasure because sometimes some of her songs really hit home for me. The lyrics basically spell out my life sometimes. So that was exciting. Have i already listened to the entire album? Yes, yes i have.

Top 3 so far

I Almost Do
And I just want to tell you 
It takes everything in me not to call you 
And I wish I could run to you 

And I hope you know that 
Everytime I don’t, 
I almost do, I almost do 



And this one

Treacherous
Your name has echoed through my mind and I just 
Think you should think you should know 

That nothing safe is worth the drive 

Holy Ground
Sometimes I wonder how you think about it now. 
And I see your face in every crowd. 
Cause darling, it was good never looking down. 
And right there where we stood was holy ground. 
Tonight I’m gonna dance for all that we’ve been through. 
But I don’t wanna dance if I’m not dancing with you. 


The last one just makes me want to dance :] 

Also- got my last e-mail today from one of my best friends, which means in a week i'll actually be talking to him. That got me really excited, but at the same time i'm really glad i'll be busy this week. It'll keep my mind off of things. Because him getting back means it's only a countdown until all the rest get back :D And i'm kind of excited to talk to one of my best friends for the first time in over 2 years. We've been signing our letters as "Write You" and "Stalk You"- if you understand that reference kudos to you. Today he signed it with "Stalk you like always" and it made me laugh really hard. We are so weird, yes i have accepted that but I LOVE IT. Can't wait till the one who signs "God Bless and Stay Fresh" gets back. 

SO I'M EXCITED. 
if you don't get that reference we need to talk and i need to help you

Video Cinco


Annnnd For David


Peace out y'all. Also- if you want chill music(what i've been listening to all day basically)


musicccccc

Y'all get a lot of great music from Em's posts.  Today was definitely one of those days that I needed music.  This is the song that got me through the day: 

And a little rap helps me get through any day!  Still on my Jay-Z kick.  

If Every Day Could Be Like Today...

...i would be a very happy girl. This morning started with the Matinee of the Opera- which is this family friendly performance where the Director explains what Opera is to little kids. It was so cute and amazing! I did my old age makeup and then helped with the main guys, i love love love all of my opera casts!

When i first started doing makeup for the Opera students it was pretty hard because we weren't communicating very well. Once i started joking around with them and praising them when they did their shadows correctly we started to become friends. All of my Chorus Men and i are tight, they are seriously my favourite. The Chorus girls and i bonded over boys. One time i was standing behind them looking at their shadows and highlights and one girl starts talking about this guy so i sit down and start listenign and then they all turn to me and are like "OK, now you tell us your boy problems!!!" "Welllllll......" And we just talked about boys hahaha they know my life now. It was such a fantastic moment, and i love those girls to death. The main boys and i struggled at first because we are all so stubborn, but now we are tight. Mas comes to me to do his shadows and we talk about the most random things, Russ and i bonded over Memes, and Jubal and i just mock each other mercilessly. The main girls- words cannot describe how beautiful and kind these women are. So patient and always happy to see me! We've become a weird family of sorts and i honestly love every minute of it and the time passes so quickly.

One of the girls who helps with costuming asked me to do her makeup because she had an audition later that day. She was fascinated by what i was doing and i made another friend :)

Then i came home and chilled with Charls until we decided to go shopping. I discovered this supermarket called Sprouts...formerly known as Sunflower market. IT'S FANTASTIC AND I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED ABOUT A DISCOVERY IN MY LIFE. Organic awesomeness, vitamins that i've been learning about in my plant class, kefir, kumbacha, gluten free food, homemade bread, sunflowers, and beautifulness that is YERBA mate in a can. It's my kind of store. I just felt automatically at home and at peace when i walked in that store, it was super weird.

WE ALSO WENT TO LUNCH WITH ZACH! He's going on a mission soon- i will miss him :(

Then the opera again which meant more makeup! It also meant a super deep conversation about marriage with one of my co-makeup artists. Over all- it made me not scared about marriage at all (She's married)  and got me really excited about the future and craziness. We also talked about our lives and again, i made a friend.

Mate. Mate all night long, i drank so many cups of it. I drink it with cold lemonade- crystal light. I found out that a bunch of my Chorus Men had served missions where their people drank Mate. Matt and i drank it all night....at the end i got super super hyper. Like...honestly only a handful of people have ever seen me in that state...it's bad, but hilarious.

Also Michael did my hair- he is one of my chorus men- and from England. He knows how to do hair better than i do....he also scared me tonight when i was walking home from the hammocks, he was in his car in the Brownstone parking lot and yelled my name and i screamed then Charls started screaming. Love that man.

Tease ALL the hairs

 Beeeehive! 

Sprouts Market Trip 

 My new Oregano plant! I LOVE plants and wanted one! 


IT WAS SUCH A GOOD DAY FILLED WITH AWESOMNESS.

kind of freaking out a little..

Today I stubbed my toe. That's the worst.  There was blood involved. Yeah..
That kind of sums up my day.

I got to see Zach today, though.  A bunch of us went to lunch, and it was a ton of fun.  Zach is getting ready to leave for his mission; he's going to be an awesome missionary!  Because, well, he's super awesome.

It has just been a really weird weekend.  But, there have been some really great times.  From vitamin shopping with Em to chillin with Katy life has just been great.  Then tests and homework and life on top of all of that has just been stressful.  Too much up and down.

It must be mid-semester crisis time.

That time when I doubt everything.  Everyone always seemed to think it was really cool that I knew what I wanted to do with my life early on, and it is.  But, there are cons to the situation as well.  I did some shadowing this summer, and it was incredible.  The downside, though, was that I fell more in love with medicine, and that it is still so far away for me.

I know that in the end all of everything I've ever gone through to get to where I want to go will have been worth it.  However, I feel like there are more areas in my life that I'm chasing things it seems I will never catch up to.  I think it's about time I started running a little faster.  I guess the question is what will I do with myself when I do catch up.  

Song Of The Night

Sorry i'm such a hobo at posting these.

Another good one by them,

You Really Don't Have To Read It All

So while i was at work today i asked someone the date, and they told me it was October 18th. That date made me oddly reflective, suddenly i saw everything that had happened within the last two years flash through my mind. It was such a weird moment, but a moment i wouldn't change for the world because i realized how much has changed and how much i've grown.

2 years ago i was talking to one of my best friends and saying goodbye to him. He was getting set apart in a couple of hours for his mission and it was really hard because life for two years would be weird without him. I paced infront of my apartment in Wyview holding the phone to my ear and at loss for words. He told me to take care of myself and when i said i'd see him in two years he laughed and said "Sure".  There is a long list of those suckers that thought i would be married when they were back, none of them believed me when i told them they were hilarious and wrong.

Within those two years i have made some of the best friends i could have asked for. I started college not knowing anyone and thrown into this new life of balancing life and school. It was really really hard at first but i think i've got the hang of it :) Sleepless nights talking with my roommate and bonding over the dumbest things. I wouldn't trade those nights for the world, they are everything to me. Meeting new people through BYUSA, classes, wards, and random happenstance has changed my life.

School sucks, always has, but i love learning. I love that moment where everything clicks for me and suddenly i'm on top of the world. I've had lessons from teachers that have changed my life and made me see the world in a whole new perspective.

In the last 2 years i've fallen in and out of love, and let me tell you...Love is what can make you feel on top of the world, like suddenly everything makes sense, and suddenly you belong in a sense you could have never imagined. But it isn't easy, not at all. You have to constantly work at it, if it's going to be the kind of love that's going to last. Sometimes it falls apart...and having that heartache that came at the end of all of it was one of the worst pains i've ever felt. It leaves you feeling like suddenly you can't breathe, nothing makes sense any more, and you don't understand why anyone would ever love if it hurt this much. The thing is, i wouldn't trade that experience for the world because i grew so much. I grew in ways that i couldn't even imagine, because i came to a point where i gave up my pride and asked for my Heavenly Fathers help me to see past it all and help to put it all together again. I wish i could explain how much i know that our Heavenly Father loves us all and knows how to succor our needs. Don't be afraid to take a chance, what's the worst thing that can happen...but then again, what's the best thing that can happen?  Truth is, love isn't the thing that hurts, it's the thing that makes everything like that worth it. Better to have love and lost then to have never loved at all.

I discovered good music throughout these last couple of years and discovered a lot about myself.  Hope is one of the best gifts that i have been given, because even in some of the hardest moments of my life within the last two years i somehow knew that eventually it would be ok. It would be better than ok!  I also realized that i'm really honest with my feelings and when i'm not i can't find peace. I feel like i'll blow at any moment. Peace for me is for everyone to be on the same page, to tell you what i'm thinking, i don't think there is any point in pretending everything is ok when really you can just talk about it and make it actually better.

My family and the Gospel have become two of the most important things in my life. My testimony has been tried and tested, but i know that without at doubt that i love this Gospel and it's true. It is so true. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Christ, there are Prophets alive on this earth, and our Heavenly Father knows us all individually. He hears prayers, let me tell you. He has given me comfort in some of the craziest times in my life, and courage to do His will even when i know it might bring temporary pain. I know that without a doubt that He is there for me when i face my trials and that nothing is too hard with His help. I've realized that when i feel the most alone it's my own doing, and He is still there, waiting for me to let Him in again. My family. I love my family so so much, and I am so thankful that I have them for the Eternities. My parents are crazy and i love them, they are full of so much wisdom. Sometimes we frustrate each other, but i know that they are always there for me and i love them so much. My sister, heavens. She drives me nuts, but I know that everything she does is out of love. My brother, i love how no matter what he makes me laugh and is super protective of me even if he pretends that sometimes he's not.

I've found what i love and what i could do all day. I took the class about a year and a half ago on a whim, just for a couple of extra credits. Now i'm hooked for life! Theatre Makeup is my passion, i could honestly do it all day. I love learning new teqniques and playing around. It's challenging, and honestly really daunting because sometimes i feel like i'll never be good enough. When i hear that voice i remind myself that everyone had to start somewhere. Once, the makeup artists that i look up to were exactly where i was, intimidated but ready to do whatever it took. When i start a project i just lose myself and get into flow, suddenly the world melts around me and nothing else matters. Meeting new people, working under pressure, constantly trying to think of how to fix problems with whatever you have, and seeing the final product. perfection.

Sometimes it's kind of scary to think of the future, but with everything that i've experienced within the last two years, i'm kind of excited. Why? Because life is a fickle little thing, sometimes it's hard, sometimes it's fantastic. And let me tell you, when it's fantastic i can't imagine that it can get better then Heavenly Father proves to me it can. As for the hard times? I've learned so much and grown in unbelievable ways that i would never trade for anything. So here is to the future. Here is to the unknown, here is to making the best of what you are given.

Song of the Night


Because i love this song. 
And it's an Iron and Wine kind of night after all that Jay-Z.

It's A Rap Kind of Night

Charls and I have been in the weirdest music mood as of late. Mostly a lot of rap, we just crave good rap. The thing is, Charls and i have different views when it comes to music. It's not too different, but we are always introducing each other to new stuff, which is BEAUTIFUL. I love the relationships in my life that revolve around music, it's how i bond with people honestly.

We also aquired the Grey album by DJ Danger Mouse, Jay-Z and the Beetles. If ex boyfriends aren't good for music than what are they good for right? Jokes. But seriously, my ex has a pretty good music taste, and i got the album from him.

Here is a taste of our music taste as of late,

So here we go. Can you guess who picked what?

ALSO- JUST FYI- IF YOU DON'T LIKE LANGUAGE DON'T LISTEN TO THESE SONGS. 







A Day In The Life Of Emily

7:30- Wake up and stumble into the shower as Charls grumbles at me about the light and getting up in general- it's a normal occurrence.

8:30 am- Stumble out the door grumbling about how cold it is and how we should find friends that drive this early. Walk to Campus

9:00 am- Walk into the HFAC and the Makeup Room a.k.a HOME. It's a beautiful place filled with happiness. Janet laughs at my hiccups and we work on stylized makeup- airbrush edition. Avant Garde and stuff like that, i was a bumble bee-my partners design, mine is on Thursday. The airbrush makeup dyed my bangs orange for the rest of the day. oh joy.

11:00 am- Walk into work and party basically for the next 4 hours. Get cross-trained in Tech and make buddies in a department i've never really ventured into. Also found out that Tech has the exact same training as us...but they are all just secret genius'. I love my work. 

3:00 pm- Go to my Acting class, back in the HFAC and take a midterm. Which was basically our opinions on how the class is going. Easy peasy. Also watched my TA perform his audition pieces, which was sick. Then got told by Chelsi(a girl in my class and a co-designer for the opera) that Cosi Fan Tutti is starting tonight and we need to be there by 5...i thought it started next week. oh joy.

5:00 pm- Right after class Chelsi and i go to the Green Room under the DeJong concert hall and the actors begin to trickle in. I worked mostly with the guys, main ones and chorus members  Guys putting on makeup is seriously my favourite thing in the world, they have no idea what they are doing and basically worship me. It's a hard life, i tell ya. My Philosopher kept giving me sass, but when he figured out i spoke and understood a little Spanish we became friends. The others would wave me over to help them figure out how to do highlights and shadows. I was helping one guy- mind you, i am in their dressing room, but there is a whole other section they can get dressed in...- and my philosopher shouts for me not to look to my right because he's changing. not even in the part where you can change, but just straight up to the right of me. i laughed so hard because i would have had no idea if he hadn't told me because i was so caught up in makeup. Then they started singing, and i was blown away. I then realized once again that i was doing makeup for an OPERA

While the actors were singing their hearts out Chelsi and i were watching from the audience and criticizing their makeup. Eventually we got bored and went back to the green room and played MASH. Gotta love 6th grade. Apparently I'm marrying Matt, one of the chorus members, i told him- he's down.

I was super tired so i curled up on the floor and took a cat nap. Chelsi thought it was pretty funny how i just curl up in the fetal position. 

11:00 PM ish- Charls comes to study and also to drive me home because i'm still in the HFAC. At this point we are just waiting for the rehearsal to be over so we can clean everything and go home. 

Also- i started singing Fly by Sugar Ray, then stopped and one of the chorus men/peasants/soldiers finished it and kept singing the rest of it to me. It was a beautiful moment. 

12:20 AM- Finally get home. Tired as heck, but writing a blog post. 

And that my friends, is a day in the life of Emily.

Why i love Mondays.

I get to hear from these guys. Christian and Parker are two of my really good friends from Freshman Summer. I've been getting e-mails and mail from these guys for almost two years now, and it's insane that they get back so soon! Parker at the end of October and Christian at the middle of November.  It's so weird to me that guys i know are coming back from missions, it makes me feel old. These guys have been such a big part of my life  and i can't even wait to see them!



MONDAYS ARE SERIOUSLY THE BEST. I wake up to e-mails and it's fantastic :)

Charls and i had a movie night last night: Mr and Mrs Smith. seriously so funny. 

This is how we watch movies, because we don't have a DVD player...

Then i realized that Charls and her pillows looked really American.
'MERICA.




Then an Educational Video for all y'alls. Enjoy.

Autumn, I wear what I want.

I was sitting on a bench the other day.  Just doing some homework before my next class.  Then I realized.  It's fall, y'all.  It was so beautiful.  I love fall, and secretly I always get a little excited for winter.

Sometimes you find yourself in a moment.  And you realize that in that moment, everything in life was somehow perfect.  In this crazy, stressful life you found a moment that was completely yours.  I kind of imagine that's what being in love would be like.  That's what that moment was, though.  I was being productive and enjoying fall on campus.  That day everything seemed to just work itself out.  It's just so wonderful to have a good day.  I plan on making that a regular part of my life, eventually... When I'm not in school anymore.

Emily and I colored our hairs today.  It was just a redo of the blue.  The color came out fantastically, though.   If you plan on doing a fun color in your hair, I highly recommend:
I've used the magenta and the sky blue.  I love them both.  The color is thick which makes it super easy to apply.  

It was a good weekend! We carved pumpkins today! And I put off studying. Again. So, tomorrow I will be quite busy.  This week I was reminded that eventually I will get where I want to be in life, and with hard work I can have the life I want.  Eye on the prize, my friends. 

Hey Pumpkin

Charls and i decided to share some of our music taste of the day with you.

Enjoy.



BUT this  song has been on replay for at least 10 plays. It's one of those nights.

Yeah, we like T Swift, deal with it. 

We had a fantastic night with Miguel carving pumpkins. A bunch of people were going to come but bailed last second- lame and ya missed out. It was still a great night :) WELP, gonna go watch a movie with Charls. Have a lovely night you guys!

"Well maybe it'll stay mild...but hey, maybe it'll get a little spicy"

So Charls and i never really plan our weekends, we just let what happens happen. Kris called me up tonight wanting to hang out because we wouldn't see him tomorrow and we hadn't seen him in awhile.  His call actually woke me up and i was groggy and couldn't think straight and said some weird stuff.

Kris is seriously one of our favourite people, he's so weird, but so awesome. Before tonight i had never seen Kris laugh so hard in my entire life.

I had my computer locked and he goes "Emily, unlock me" and i looked at him, raised one eyebrow and just said "Ay??" and he collapsed on the couch he was laughing so hard. When in doubt "Ay" is allllways the perfect thing to say.

Then we watched some hilarious youtube videos.



Kris laughed SO hard at the cat video. He made us laugh he was laughing so hard.  We talked,got Rancheritos, and just chilled for most of the night. The perfect kick off to an awesome weekend.
