dear blog,
so my family likes to watch tv together (go ahead and judge us if you want) but when stupid commercials are on my parents like to put the tv on mute. and lately nickie and i make up our own dialogues. sometimes they are stupid, but sometimes they are HILARIOUS.
tonight i was watching american idol with my mommy and dad and it changed to a commercial and mom is all "rochelle! do that funny thing where you make it up!" bahahah i think that the fact that SHE thought it was that great is even greater than the commercials themselves.
so, mom, dad and i all took turns voicing over the commercials and it was basically the funniest thing that happened to me all day.
love,
rochelle
p.s. you should try it-- let me know how it goes.

Girls night... plus andrew.
dear blog,
my dear friend Carmen is in town for the weekend, and i completely spaced that she was coming until she texted me on wednesday night and was like "i'm here!" and i was like "oh crap!" not because i didn't wan't to see her, but just because i was so busy on wednesday that i didn't have time to do anything to prepare for thursday, and i had a huge writing assignment due thursday night at midnight, and i had work, which was actually super busy, and a creative project due and a review session and a meeting with a study group. phew! just saying all that makes me tired. but by some MIRACLE i got everything i needed to done and even an hour before i had expected! it was seriously sooooo amazing, because i was honestly expecting to not get done and not get to spend time with her.
ANYWAYS... i did get to and it was awesome.
we met up at kamry's place and chatted for a bit.
then we hit up the herm-meister's basketball game
then we all went to fat cat's and bowled three and a half games till it closed. ( & i may or may not have sucked)
it was really fun and good to spend time with carmen and the gang. did i mention that she is PREGNANT!
it is so strange how we were all at the same exact place in life only 2 years ago, but now carmen is having children and marta is getting hitched and becs is heading out on a mission in JULY. and yes, i am graduating in december which is Awesome and it is a really big step in life, but it just feels so far away, and there is a part of me that can't help but feel left behind.
why is that?
its not a big deal. it was still super fun and really nice to just chill and spend time together, and joke around, and bowl, just like old times. it was so so lovely.
love,
rochelle
p.s. carmen is having a little seth jr.! yay! and here is a pic of us "back in the day"

lost and found
dear blog,
i must apologize. i have been stuck in a horrible funk lately. i got sick over valentine's day weekend. i ditched school friday, no school monday and i ditched tuesday too. then the next week i skipped some too. i was soooooo out of it. Honestly, i had nooo motivation to do ANYTHING. except maybe sleep and watch shows on hulu.
But, for some miraculous reason, yesterday i found my mojo! woo hoo! i woke up early and i got ready for the day and i went to all my classes. i exercised in the middle of the day with jessica callahan. i ate lunch and studied. i took my 327 test and got a NINETY THREE!!!!!!!! i even got a note on the testing center screen. they told me i was FANTASTIC! haha when i walked down the stairs there was a guy standing there and i looked up and i saw my score and i was like "i got a note!" and the guy gave me a weird/angry look and left. i'm assuming he did NOT get a happy note. then i met up with soon-to-be HERMANA jessica casebolt and we ate sandwiches and picked up lanae and sarah vera and ate delicious cupcakes at the cocoa bean. it was glorious to play and reminisce one last time.
anyways, the point is, i was "gone" and now i'm back!
love,
rochelle
p.s. i think that the above lack of motivation is a result of the lack of spring break at BYU... just sayin.

am i a bad person?
dear blog,
i found out yesterday that my brother did NOT get into BYU. of course, i am mostly disappointed, but there is a part of me that is not.
i mean, seriously? in high school i did all of my homework and projects and studied and volunteered and did clubs and lettered in basketball and did newspaper staff and early morning seminary etc. etc. etc.
and to me it feels like richie does nothing. i mean he does his homework half-heartedly the night before it's due, or should i say MOM does his homework the night before it's due, and he did the whole student council thing (which i do commend him for, because i know he was really dedicated to it and worked really hard,) but i mean come on, student council? i don't even count that as a real thing. i feel like its basically a group of the most "popular" kids in school who plan school-sponsored events for all of the other "popular" kids. and then the rest of the time richie devotes to dating and being "popular."
and, yes, i do feel like a horrible person for thinking this, but like i said, this is only a small part of how i feel (okay, by small, i mean not a majority... let's say 47%).
for the most part though, i am just as disappointed as richie is pretending not to be.
love,
rochelle
p.s. blog, i hope you don't get the wrong idea, i LOOOOVVVEEEE my brother SO SO SO Much. and it would have been SUPER awesome to go to school with him. BUT it would have only been for one semester, hence i feel less bad about thinking the above thoughts.
p.p.s. here are some of the many faces of richie... he is seriously one of the funniest kids i know... but looks aren't everything :)
