UPDATE

so much has happened in the last week, I don't even think i could remember everything!

basically we went to Coronado for a couple days and LOVED it and now I'm in the provo utah

In coronado there was this amazing statue

It's called unconditional surrender.
unfortunately these people arent me... we didnt get a chance to get a picture with it, I just think it's so cool how it is so HUGE!

anyway, coronado was a blast and i love that place and my family more than anything.

now i'm all moved in my place and just kinda waiting for school to start!!

Mom and Tara left me this morning, i'll miss them!

and I was thinking about it... I'm really gonna miss Nate! It's like I wont get to see him grow up. which is sad. I really am gonna miss that stud of a brother.

But here I am. Provo, Utah. big time college student. I wandered around campus today with Brad looking for our classes because we didn't feel like going to NSO. oh well... i still think that i'll get lost but whatever.

Also almost all my roomates are here and i love every one of them! they are all so nice so i'm thinking we will just have some great times :)

but i know i have a million more things i need/want/moreneedthanwant to blog about but i think i'll just skip out on that.

I feel like I'll be super busy at college but I'll try to keep up on my blog...

oh well. and maybe sometime I'll post some Coronado pictures but for now there are a couple on my sisters blog.

Speaking of my amazing sister... she had her MRI today! they got the results probably minutes ago so I don't know the results yet but I'm sure that everything will turn out okay. She is just so great and whatever life throws at her she dominates. I love her. and I'll miss her like it's my job as well.

But I should eat some food now... such is the life of a college student...

WAIT:

I just got a text message from my sister that the MRI was GOOD! No tumor as of now!! YES!

last night.

this is my last night living in my house.

next time I come home I will officially be a guest.

I don't really know how I feel about this.

all this time I have been waiting to get out of this house and now I feel like I am actually going to miss it. Val came over tonight. I just love her so much. She knows exactly how to make me feel better when I am having a mini meltdown. or maybe not mini... but still.

I started cleaning out my closet tonight. I kinda gave up... Its just going to be half cleaned out I think.

BUT you don't even know how good it felt to just throw away all of my high school papers!!

I feel like a new woman.

All those pre-calc and algerbra 2 worksheets I kept but never looked at. All those binders full of worksheets and notes I never even thought twice about looking at.

GONE.

and it feels so good.

well here i am just waiting for my laundry to dry.

Laundry takes for.ev.er to dry bytheway...

i started it at probably 9:40 and I'm still waiting on it.

oh well.

I just probably will be super tired and not productive at all on my last day of work tomorrow...

oh ALSO...

I am going to Coronado TOMORROW!

Sooo I need some good books to read on the beach!

any suggestions?

and yes I have already read the Hunger Games and Harry Potter. no worries.

so any ideas?? you're all-time favorite book?

I'm pretty open to anything :)

peace out.

here I go a week without Internet.

weird how good that sounds.

i can see!

I got some glasses!

How exciting is that.

Now I don't have to wear contacts all the time.

Mayyybe it only took basically 3 years of wishing for glasses for christmas for me to finally get some!

But it's fine. I have them now and I'm happy :)

Oh, this is what they look like...

okay... I'm only kidding.

this is the real deal

ps... isn't nathan palmer just the cutest.

imma miss him when i'm at college...

lern two spelle

no joke, this is real.

real talk.

How embarassing.

Those painters need to go to go back to shcool...

School is SHH... COOL!

two a day.

I'm blogging again because I feel like it.

Alright can you handle how gorgeous these two lovely ladies are??

Because I certainly cannot!

Also, they are the nicest and left this picture on my wall for me. Well, facebook wall of course

Really though. I love them.

how cute is that?

And they make those burgers look goood.

err, uhh, wait what am I saying. those burgers look scrumpteous and they are beautiful tooo. They go great together. Thats it.

and i miss them too.

The end.

Hollllaa!

school starts tomorrow!! and do you know what that means???

these two little cuties won't be comin to work tomorrow...

I know, sad.

I know, probably be bored out of my mind I suppose...

But I wanted to put some faces to the names of "the boys at work".

Because that is what I call them because my family and friends have no idea who I am talking about when I say Rico and Robert.

Anyway...

Meet Robert.

He is a character... that is for sure. There isn't much to say since I already dedicated a whole post to him...

and this is Rico.

He is well... is a goofy kid. He endlessly laughs at me, which of course makes me laugh. Every thing I say, and of course every face I make he imitates and it just makes me laugh. He's great.

Anyway... So as you can tell one day at work we had quite the adventure. We had to break down 150 boxes that we built and filled with files only to find out they actually can be shredded. It was great to know that crucial piece of information ahead of time! SO we filled our already crammed office with the boxes to avoid working in the warehouse with no AC.

Anyway, so there are more fantastic pictures, here they come.

they are teaching me how to be hood. it's working... pshh psych!

Yeah, they shoved a whole huge pile of boxes on me, and my head.

He had to uh, pee... but the door is behind those boxes... ha awesome..

and i couldn't resist putting this picture up!! Roberts face is hilarious. love it.

WE ARE TELGIAN

2010

peace homies.

HA.

oh, and this is my last Tuesday residing in this house.

peppersauce.

unnamed co-worker #1 ""hey Rachel, how much do you weigh?"

unnamed co-worker #2 "hey now, that's not something you ask a girl..."

unnamed co-worker #1 "Well she isn't really a girl! I mean... that kind of girl"

awesome huh?

yeahhh... I love my job.

Even when i get so ridiculously frustrated with a certain person. It's fine. I love it anyway.

But since I have nothing super exciting to post about I will post about my trip to the MUD CAVES because i realized as i looked through my summer pictures that i never did! strange...

This is the group. We are clean :)

What happened? Peppersauce caves is what happened....

I have this friend named Ian Smith. He told me to go head first... So i was rolling around in the mud trying to get up. It was just the best experience ever..

After. I voted myself most dirty. Well because I was. But there was no official voting so i gave myself that honor.

Once upon a time... my jeans were blue.

Anyway... FHE time.

Later all.

Utah.

Sunday is almost over.

That means work tomorrow.

aww crap.

But a post about my utah trip is LOONG over do.

Here is my top ten of going to UTAH

in no particular order of course...

1. Singing my heart out with my loverly sisternlaw steph to Brittany Spears.

2. Driving. For a whole freaking long time. With no air conditioning. THAT makes a 12 hour ride even worse than it sounds.

3. Seeing the whole SCHLAPPI FAMILY for the reunion. Seriously though, i love my family. they are HILARIOUS.

4. Getting to spend a day with Tyler and Tilly. They are just awesome. The end.

5. Horsebackriding. Thanks Ty! He took us out on a ride the day before Tilly had her baby. Wow.

6. Quading in THE most beautiful mountains in Utah. I'm serious. Go to fairview, you'll see.

7. I got my first concussion! That was exciting. Not really... more like super confusing. Spandex is a great but super dangerous game.

8. Grandma and Grandpa's 50th wedding anniversary! We had a great program and I have the funniest family. Seriuosly Ry, you rocked the skits. and kenna you're poem was unreal. Loved it and there were lots of laughs.

9. My wrist tan line. Yep, still have it... and my whole arm is still peeling. Awesome.

10. Visiting my best friends in the whole world at BYU! Really though, going up there made me SOO excited for college and it was a much needed visit to all my girls whom i love. Stephie, Val, Kelc, and Chels. Loved it, miss them.

Allllrighty. Now for some pictures

don't tell me he isn't just the most adorable.

Yep, this is it.

Travis definitely drove all the way to Fairview with his moto in the trunk.

How he did it?? I don't know..

I needed a shower, don't jugde.

Also, i love them. So stinking MUCH!

I know, i know... they're adorable.

well, thass all. happy sunday everyone!
