Living the Utah Life

It's been a while since my last post so I thought it was time to write another even though I don't really have much to say. Can you believe it's almost June?! I can't! I was talking to someone the other day and she mentioned something about our birthdays (our birthdays are only ya few days apart) and it only just dawned on me that my birthday is coming up! I kinda wish my birthday would just not come this year cuz I don't have any friends to celebrate it with. But I guess I haven't really had a birthday at home with my family for 4 years it'll be nice whatever we decide to do. 


The other day across the street my parent's ward had a bbq with a live high school jazz band. It was a lovely afternoon sitting and listening to the music. It made me really miss Nic. I remember when we were both still living in Toowoomba he took me down to the jazz club in Brisbane one night, it was so wonderful. There is nothing in this world more romantic than jazz I reckon. 


While I was sitting over there mum came back up from the house with blankets. She said that she had just talked to my Grandma on the phone, and that was really odd cuz mum never talks to Grandma if she can help it haha Anyway, she went on to say that Grandma had bought me a piano and it's ready to be picked up. I had a bit of a delayed reaction, the excitement just bubbled over I started crying. I can't believe it! Dad is picking it up on Wednesday and then I'll have a piano! I'm so spoilt! But I love it. Thanks Grandma <3


My thesis is almost finished, I spent practically all day Saturday working on it. I'm determined to have it done before my birthday! It's so close now that I think I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I can't even begin to tell how good it will feel when it's all finished and I never have to worry about it again! 

Update On My Fish...

It died.

Goings On

So today I started really liking my job. We had a carnival celebration for Target's 50th anniversary and I won a fish and a dvd. I am feeling more apart and involved in the team, it makes it more bearable to wake up at 6am every morning. 


My lecturer at uni finally emailed me back saying that he is going on long service leave as of the 30th of June so my thesis needs to be finished by mid June. I've got to get my bum into gear! He asked me to send him my updated Chapter 4 asap but the updated version has more stuff deleted than added so that's a bit of a worry! Lol 


I also have a new calling at church. I am on the ward family history council. The "job description" if you will is indexing. I need to index 500 names a month. At first I thought that was crazy but since I've gotten into it I love it. It feels good to be doing my part.
