The Start of Spring Break!
My spring break has started out with a bang! Yesterday I left for Orlando with a group of my friends and we got back today. We mainly went to see our friend, Jerly, in her Tahitian dance competition, but it was great to get out of town for two days! My morning started early; we left around 8:00 AM so we could get there by 10:00 AM. The dance competition was great! It ranged in ages from 3-25 years old, girls and boys. It was a Hawaiian type of dance, with the costumes and all, so it was really fun! Jerly got 3rd place out of about 7 girls so I was really proud of her, and of course she looked beautiful! After the competition we (all 7 of us), went to our hotel, chilled for a little bit, then got dressed to go to City Walk! We walked around, listened to some bands there, shopped, and ate dinner at an Italian restaurant. It was a blast! We were on such an adrenaline and sugar high that when we were going back to the hotel, we blasted the music to karaoke songs and the YMCA and sang loudly! When we got back we just hung out and fell asleep, and of course laughed almost the WHOLE night! This morning we all got ready to leave and then ate breakfast and Denney's and drove home. All in all I had a great time! Here are some pictures!

The blondes unite! We were the minority of our group.

Thanks to Sweet Melissa:
So now I'm supposed to list five things I think are sexy about me... Hmm this is hard!
1. I have confidence in my talents! Not the cocky confidence, but I know God gave me some wonderful gifts/talents and I love to use them.
2. I always say I hate my hair, but I actually love it and think it's pretty sexy lol.
3. I love to cook and am good at it! I especially love to cook with my boyfriend =)
4. I like my personality. I'm crazy, quirky, outspoken, and of course blonde. But hey, that makes moments even funnier!
5. Finally, I love my Jesus and am not ashamed to admit it!
I tag anyone else who wants to participate ;)
On another note, I've been sick for the past couple of days and it's not fun =( I think Jon passed it on to me. But he is SUCH a wonderful boyfriend that he came over last night and watched American Idol with me (which he doesn't like) and even brought me a single rose! That was so sweet and it made my night! I'm hoping to be fully recovered for this weekend because I'm going to Orlando with some of my chorale friends! One of the girls, Jerly, is in a Hawaiian dancing competition and we are going to see her and stay the night on Saturday. It should be fun! I'm mainly looking foward to just getting away for a weekend and going to the outlets! I'll post pictures when I get back! Oh, and I'm even more excited because I start spring break tomorrow. Whoo hoo!

My Boring Life
It may seem like I'm getting lazy with this thing, but really I'm not. My life just isn't very exciting! I've been having a good week though, I just wish our weather wasn't so bipolar! Just two days ago it was 80 and now its in the 60s and windy! =( Ah, Florida weather lol.
Even though I've been having a good week, I've been kind of down because I can't find a job. I've applied to several places but no one likes to call back! It's hard for me to work a full-time job or a job that's 8-5 because I'm in school, so I'm left with retail or waitress jobs, which I don't mind, it's just hard to find a good paying job these days! If anyone knows where I could find one let me know!
I'm also ready for spring break! Most everyone has already had theirs or is on it now, but mine doesn't start until next Friday. But that's ok because hopefully there will be better weather so I can go to the beach! =)
The one thing I'm most excited for is summer! I get to go on vacation with my family to our condo in New Smyrna Beach, and then somewhere with my boyfriend's family! They are thinking about going on a cruise or to Italy, Poland, and France! That would be awesome! Although I would love to go to Europe with them, I don't know how I could come up with that much money by June! I'm praying I can! Well, that's about it for now... I'll try to take some new pictures to post!

Cool Buys!
Once again, it's been a great week! I think it's mainly because the weather is so beautiful and I'm overjoyed that winter is over! I've been really busy with homework lately, but I remind myself that if I do it all, Spring Break is just around the corner! I know, our school is late on doing it for some odd reason, but hey, it will be warmer so I can go to the beach more! Yesterday I went to the Cummer Museum because I had to do a museum report for my Humanities class, but I had so much fun! Thankfully Jon came with me, so he made it a lot more fun =) My favorite part was the gardens; they are absolutely breaktaking! I decided I eventully want to have my wedding there =) The garden is much bigger than the picture below, but here is just a glimpse for those who don't know what it looks like!
I've been in a shopping mood lately, and here are some things I got this week:
Ok, so I didn't actually buy this, but my sweet boyfriend gave me his iTouch! He never used it and had been sitting in his car for like three weeks, so he decided I would get more use out of it! I love it already!
I recently made a decision to tone up my body for the summer, so I caved and bought some Pilates stretch bands for a mere $7 at Ross. It looks pretty fun to use, so we'll see!
Here is a cute dress I bought from Old Navy! I could wear it to the beach or just for a sunny day, and it was only $15! If you're looking for some cute summer dresses, they definitely have a lot to choose from!

Fun in the Sun
Wow, it's almost been a week since I've updated, but I've been having too much fun! Last Friday night I made dinner for Jon, complete with great boneless ribs, a baked potato, bread, and cabbage. Mmm! Then we went to see Watchmen, which I don't recommend seeing by the way. There is absolutlely no point to the movie and is so confusing! Saturday was my brother's 16th birthday party which was really fun! He had about 20 of his friends over, and of course family, and we went on a video scavenger hunt. I had some interesting experiences with my group... Lol. Some things we had to do were go in KFC and cluck like a chicken, go in Hollister and sing a Beach Boys song, play Duck Duck Goose in front of Dick's Sporting Goods, and even more crazy things! Then afterwards we had pizza and cookie cake, he opened presents, we watched a comedy video, then played some Guitar Hero! On Sunday I went to church then finally got to go to the beach! The weather here has been beautiful; sunny skies and highs in the 80s! Ah my kind of weather =) I even went again today because I couldn't resist an opportunity to be in the sun! Stay tuned for some pictures!

Concert & Birthday
Even though it's only mid-week, it's been a great week so far! On Monday night I went with my boyfriend, Jon, and his parents to see Elton John & Billy Joel in concert. It was actually one of the most fun concerts I've ever been to! I'm hooked on the songs Bennie & The Jetts and Piano Man now! If you've never seen them in concert, you should, even if you don't love their music. They have brilliant talent and are very entertaining; you will never be bored!
Today is also Jon's 20th birthday, so I surprised him by waking him up at 8:15 this morning! I jumped on his bed and told him to wake up and brought in balloons and sang Happy Birthday to him =) Then we make breakfast consisting of blueberry pancakes, bacon, sausage, & fruit. Mmm! The best part of the day was skipping school =) Shhh lol. Tonight we are going out to eat at a Mexican restaurant, not sure of the name though. So it should be a great rest of the day! I'm especially looking foward to the warm weather coming up in the next couple of days =) Friday & Saturday are supposed to be in the 70s and maybe even 80s yay! Oh, below are some pictures of us at the concert.
Aww what a sweet boyfriend!
Haha our true selves =)
