Busy Busy!

My life has been absolutely crazy lately!

On Friday I went to Snowflake, and ate at Native New Yorker with my family! Sadly, I left my left-overs in Snowflake. :(

On Saturday, I tabulated scores for the Northeast Region. I worked for 14 hours! I think... But congrats to all those who made it. SNOWFLAKE DOMINATES STILL!

Yesterday I hit my head on my car window, and now I have a big goose egg on the back of my head... :/
But I am happy to be back in Thatcher. When something interesting happens I will let you know!

I leave you with a photo:


"All you need is love..."

I Love Being a Photographer!

I just did an engagement session yesterday, and it was so fun! I just love capturing moments in time that are frozen forever, and sharing them with others! Here are a few...





I LOVE MY JOB!!! :D

Wicked!

Just got back from Tucson! Wicked was amazing! Elphaba was my favorite though, her voice was so pretty!

I am so happy I got to go see it with my friend Jessica! She is so awesome!

I am also very tired though, and now it's sleepy time! :D

Wonderful Wednesday

I have officially decided... I love Wednesdays! Nothing really happens on this day, I don't have class until 11 and then I only have class till one, and then three to five. Having the morning to prepare for the day is amazing!

Last semester I started at seven and went to 11, then had class 12 to 1 and then 2 to 7 at night. It was crazy! I don't know how I did it.

I have decided not to do the musical OKLAHOMA! at EA this year. I wouldn't enjoy it I think since I did it only a couple years ago. I will have fun doing the make up for it though, and watching one of these things for once!
I get to go see Wicked! on Friday with my friend in Tuscon! This will be my fifth time seeing it, but I am so excited! :D

Yes, you have my permission to be jealous! ;)

Long time no post!

Long time no post...I am sorry!
But life has been good since my last post, and I just love scriptures! I also love sleep so farewell for tonight!

School Started!

Hey there! School started on Wednesday (YAY!)

I love my classes so much! Well, so far. On Mondays and Wednesdays I have four classes :D
The first one is Woman's Quartet at seven a.m.
Second is Musical Theater at 11 a.m. :D
Third is A Capella at 12
Fourth is Intermediate Photography at 3!

My schedule is the same on Fridays, except for I don't have photography on those days :)

On Tuesdays and Thursdays (my busy days...) this is how my schedule goes:
7 a.m. Quartet
10 Book of Mormon
11 Devo/Seminar
12 A Capella
1 Woman's Chorale
2:30 Stage Make up
And on Tuesdays I have Voice Lessons at 3:30

Yup, Tuesdays and Thursdays are kinda crazy!
And yes, I was eaten alive by the music department.

And then there's Me! :)

This is me being silly with roomates and oranges! :)

Poor Dim...

This is my poor little car, crammed full of our stuff... :)

OH SO HAPPY!!!

I am so happy right now! It was an awesome day at church! :D

My friends and I made it back to Thatcher okay, so no need to worry!

I LOVE LETTERS FROM MY FAVORITE MISSIONARY!!! :D :D :D

I also love oranges that my roomate Jennifer let us eat, and making silly faces with them! I also love my roomates! :)

I love my car that is still nice to me, even though I cram it full of stuff until I can't see out the back window... :)

I just love my life! It's awesome and I am ridiculously happy right now!

Take care everyone!

Going back to Thatchnasty :)

Yup, I am going back to Thatcher today with Shalay and Chad. It's going to be a super tight squeeze!

Besides all of the junk that I already brought with me to Snowflake, I have added another very large suitcase! EEK! We will make it work. I will be sure to take pictures of my silly little Subaru clear full of everyone's stuff. It's going to be awesome.

See ya Snowflake! LAST SEMESTER AT EA!!! :D

Happiness :)

It's a successful day!

For my photography business I wondered if people would like slide shows of their pictures.

And people like the idea! :)$

I'm just a big whinny baby...

Okay, so maybe my hair isn't as bad as I thought it was... Forgive my ranting please :)

I leave for Thatcher tomorrow! Last semester at EAC. :)

Is there a nice word for FLIPPIN' ANGRY?????

Okay, so I am going to complain here for a bit, so if you want to not listen to some big time major complaining, you better skip ahead.


SO... I get a very nice haircut today, and I love the cut! It is fabulous!

But, then Delsy decides that she wants to die her hair so she doesn't have a different color on the top. BAD IDEA!!!

So Delsy's mom helps her dye her hair, and so Delsy rinses it out and starts to blow dry it, notices that the top is still a little blonde, but whatever...

Then as Delsy continues, she notices that when she blow dries the bottom part of her hair, it doesn't change color!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So now Delsy is stuck with ugly colored hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So now Delsy has two different colors on her head, the topish golden brownish, the bottom..... ALMOST BLACK!!!!!!!!!!

My hair is my pride and joy and I love it! So when stupid stuff like this happens to my hair, I get a little upset!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GGGGGAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have worked so hard to keep it so healthy and shiny and perfect and long, and now it is ruined!!!!!

It's okay, we will just dye it again!
Mom says.

I don't want to even touch hair dye ever again! Because it is stupid and makes me look freakin' retarded!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I think I am done now... but GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:`{

Yes, that would be an angry crying face.

Eh... not feeling to hott... :P

As you can see, I haven't been posting a picture EVERY DAY. Yeah, maybe I will just switch to the 58 week thing...

The past few days I have not been feeling good at all, but today I am better. YAY!

Heading back to EA on Saturday (ALSO YAY!) to see all my buds in Thatcher!

I also decided that this winter break has been the longest of my entire life! I haven't been to Thatcher in three weeks!

Oh, the picture below! That would be my friend Tara Gale. I took her senior pictures and they are amazing! I love her so much! She is so silly :)

And now, I have run out of things to say...

#9

Long time no card!

YAY!!! I got my card back! So... here a few of the pictures I have taken since my card has been back: :D

Here a the Vians. They are a happy bunch, and so fun to work with. I am grateful for families!



And here is one of my best best best friends, Tara Gale. I love her so much, I don't know what I would do without her!


And last but certainly not least, this is my cousin Kayla! I love her so much! On New Years day our whole Shumway family was at our house sledding and four wheeling and such, and this is what she looked like after her turn :) I love crazy cousins!




I also just realized, this is my first post of the New Year! Happy 2011 everyone! Some of my goals this year are to:
Be more Christ-like in everything that I do (serving, mostly. And not doing it unwillingly...)
Get back in the habit of readinag my scriptures everyday!
Write in my journal more frequently (my last journal entry was like... in August... :/ )
Get halfway done with my Certificate of Completion for Digital Photography from either MCC or CGCC.

Oh, I forgot to tell all of you. I decided not to go back to EA next fall. I am wanting to become a professional photographer, and EA has pretty much nothing to offer in that direction. And the longer I stay there, the more I am getting eaten alive by the music department. They put me in the Women's Quartet in the middle of the semester, and I had no time for anything else. And this semester, all of my courses but three are music oriented. Those would be BoM (institute,) Stage Make-up, and Advanced Digital Photography. Yup, I surely did get sucked in. I love music and all, but I need to break away from it for a long time I think. At least until I get done with my schooling for Photography.

Well, that's it for today. Happy New Year!
