Quick Walmart Story that Needs to Be Shared

Okay, hopefully i'll do a real post soon (cuz i have internet now!!) but this is just a quickie post. Me and Colleen went to walmart and on the way inside we got purred at. Then we were walking past the cash registers and a guy in line totally checked us out. Didn't even try to hide it. and then we were in movies and these two guys got in a conversation with us/hit on us and it was totally random and very funny. They asked where we lived. we gave them a rock on center street by the lake. they were going for our phone numbers....but something about them (like the fact that they had 2 loaves of bread, hamburger buns, a bamboo makeup brush and a box of tampons in their cart AND one of them had two of his fingernails painted purple) made us think that that may not be the best idea, so we didn't. but it was great. epic trip to walmart?? i think so. hasta!!

Home sweet... I MISS DISNEY!!

So I have been home since Saturday and that was an adventure. So, lets backtrack a little bit and work up to the getting home stuff. The last week of my college program were absolutely incredible (like all the weeks before it) I went to all the parks. I finished off Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios first (with Erick), hitting all the major things...Festival of the Lion King, Flights of Wonder, Finding Nemo the musical, Safari, Everest, Tower of Terror, Rockin Rollercoaster. I said goodbye to Downtown Disney that same day (with Keith) by walking around Once upon a Toy (my fav store in DTD i dont actually like World of Disney that much)eating at my favorite place to eat on property... Earl of Sandwich (they totally need to open one in provo. would make my life) getting some delicious ghiradelli icecream (agian...provo) and going to inception. which was amazing!! we'll get to the movie section later. On my last day of work I worked, said goodbye to everyone, cried a lot. Then got done with work (thanks Eusabio for the ER so I could play a little) oh and Eusabio (one of my fav coordinators) switched shifts with another coordinator (who im not as fond of) so that I had one of my favs for my last day/shift in Image. So I was meant to clock out at 6:30 which meant my bumpout would come anywhere after 6:15. I was in the show at 6:10 about to start a show, and I realized that it would be my very last show. Which, of course, made me start to cry. So i'm up on the podium and people are looking at me weird because, hello, im in the happiest place on Earth and im bawling!! So, i explain that it is my last day and my last show so everyone cheers crazy!! I tell them that im just going to try to get through the spiel so they can understnad me. I completely choke through the spiel,(more clapping) and get the show going. So im standing up in the back of the theater, hoping with everything in me that whoever gets my bumpout will be someone i like becasue I was planning on keeping my bumpout slip and how depressing would it have been if someone gave it to me that I wasn't as fond of?? Then I would have that as my last slip of paper from Image. Thankfullly, my friend (new friend actually) John had my bumpout. So he hands it to me and I cry. and I walk out of the theater and Erick is in show 2 and we both cry (it was his last day as well, but he lives in MEXICO!! so thats very sad) and I go to the breakroom and change my clothes and rip my work shoes apart (now that I have decent internet, hopefully ill get some pics posted soon) and kept crying, took some more pictures, cried, hugged everyone, and they all started singing "The sun will come up tomorrow" from Annie of course. So I cried some more. I rode Journey into Imagination and watched Caption EO (those things had to be the last things I did in the park. Walked around the showcase, got some food in France, and watched Illuminations, right on showcase plaza. You can , of course, see IllumiNations from anywhere around world showcase, but the show was just MADE for showcase plaza. It was INCREDIBLE!! After that, I walked out of Epcot, never to return. (this trip anyway) That night we (Me, Erick, Andrea, Ashley, Margaret, Bekka, and Tyler (if i forgot someone im sorry!!) went to Andreas house and Erick and Andrea made delicious mexican food. it was fun, we just ate and talked and took fun pics and said goodbye. more crying. Thursday I went to Magic Kingdom and said goodbye, but it looked like it was going to rain so I left MK. As I was walking out, Mickey's Dream and Dream Come True (the show in front of the castle) was ending so I walked down Main Street USA to the finale of that show, most epic way to leave the park EVER!!) and I went to downtown disney (but just pleasure island) and watched "Salt" Again, movies later. Friday was finishing packing, shipping boxes ($$$) and leaving Chatham. I went to Hutch and Caris and just kinda hung out with them, we watched a movie called "Possession" (ill talk about it in a minute). Saturday I hung out with Hutch and Cari and the girls somemore, we went canoing at Wachiwa (spelling...sorry) springs and that was fun. Then home, and off to the airport. Checked my bags, got through security, got to my gate, easy peasy. My flight was slightly delayed becasue the plane that was at the gate before my plane took longer to leave than it was supposed to, but only like 20-25 minutes so no big deal. When we were about to land in Denver, hello turbulance. like, bad. so it took us half an hour longer to land than it should have. thankfully, my gate for my next flight was the same gate that this plane landed in so I just had to hang out for like 20 minutes and id be on the plane. no such luck. flight delayed until 9:10 (it was supposed to leave at 7:40) so i pulled out the computer and settled in to watch hercules (i was not a happy camper by the way. not a hapy camper at all. and there was this newly wed couple who was on the same flight as me and they were all newly wedish and happy and it was sick. why couldnt they be upset about the delay, cuz i was, but no they were all happy and... happy.) another delay. 9:15 okay okay. Another delay. 9:40 AND a gat change. so we go all the way down to the end of the airport to another gate. FINALLY the plane gets there (story is, it was a direct flight to SLC from Pueblo and the plane got grounded in Pueble becasue of the weather) on the plane, and takeoff!! finally arrive in SLC around 11 and home. bed. Yesterday (monday) we (me, mom, landon, natalie, rachel) went and climbed Timpagogos cave (i didnt die!! even with the 7000 ft altitude difference!! I did get a lil' light headed tho.) but then we went on the Alpine slide and coaster, which was SO MUCH FUN!! then home. today, running errands, chilling. I was talking to someone about what we were going to do, and i honestly about said, we could just go to one of the parks. whoops. not at disney anymore. i cant get past that. its so sad :-( but ill be back in Utah soon, so that will be exciting :-)
Okay, movies. "Inception" SO INCREDIBLE!! loved it. I was worried I was gonna be super confused, but it wasnt as hard to follow as people made it sound, but it was so crazy awesome!! defs loved that movie!!
"Salt" was good, but not incredible. I felt like they didnt develop the plot enough to kill as many people as they did. And you really never knew who the bad guys were until the very very end. I feel like they left the end open for a sequal (speaking of sequals, i need to watch alvin and the chipmunks the squeakual)but I dont feel like they should, and I don't feel like they will.
"Possession" kindof an interesting movie, but not fabulous. It was just... way to cheesy. like... WAY. but it was not bad.
Okay, well I think that's it for now, so I'll blog again soon...hopefully :-)
HASTA!!
