Sub Woofers and Cookies

Once again, I would like to thank all of you for listening to my venting last post, I'm over it all now. So this past week has been fun, Sven ordered a Sub-Woofer and an Amplifier for my little Car!! I'm really excited because my car has no "thump" to it when it comes to listening to music. Plus, we only had to pay 150.00 for it!! I'm quite excited! Every time we get in my car, Sven says how excited he is for it. I honestly think he is more excited for it than I am!
I sure do love my car, its so fun!! I won't lie though, because its so boxy, it takes me forever to get up to speed! Oh well, thats the price I pay for awesome-ness!
Lately, Sven and I have been eating waaaaay too many sweets!! The other day we were at Wal-mart, and we decided as a treat to get some snacks. Well, I felt like getting Chips Ahoy, just the original kind. As I'm going to grab them, Sven tells me to grab the Chewy kind. The Chewy kind. Ew. I really don't like the Chewy kind, they just don't taste like real chocolate chip cookies to me, So I turn and just kinda stare at him with this face that says, "The CHEWY kind??" So I ask him if he is sure and he tells me that he doesn't like the original ones because they are so hard. So anyway, there just so happens to be a worker standing by us who overheard our conversation. She leans over and tells me, "Just buy them both! Thats what my husband and I have to do, he likes the chewy too!"  So we bought both, and let me just tell you... A whole package of cookies to myself?? Bad news for me! I've been pacing though, so its not so bad, but it feels like I've been eating tons of junk food lately! Its almost to the point that I don't want it anymore, which is crazy, because I like me some junk food!!
I do apologize for sucking at blogging, thank you to the followers that I do have. You are AWESOME!!

Song of the Blog- Honey Pie by The Beatles, seriously, I love this song soooooooo much! It makes me happy, and I assure you it will make you happy!

Vent Sesh..

     As you all probably noticed, I need a Vent Session. As most of you know, my little brother Skyler is coming home soon from his mission in Brazil. How soon you ask?? He will be home August 29th-ish!! I know, very exciting!

  

      However, since he is coming home so soon, my parents have been working on getting him scholarships and accepted for school. Skyler didn't go to school after he graduated high school, instead he just worked and saved money, so he wants to go when he gets back. Anyway, he has been sort of adamant about going to BYU-I in the fall.... 12 days after he gets home..........  I don't think I can put enough periods after the end of that sentence. I am pretty sure its only because of the girl he has been writing his whole mission. He also wants to get right into learning so he can feel like he is progressing. Which makes sense... 

     But as his older sister, and his longest best friend, I don't like this at all... I know its probably selfish of me to want him here longer, but I was really looking forward to introducing him to Sven. My brother has never met Sven, and I already know they will get along really well. But Skyler will be going to school 12 days after he gets home. This fact really frustrates me, to the point of tears.  I'm pretty sure I cried the whole entire day when he left on his mission, this picture is proof: 

     You can see I was upset that day right?! Obviously I want to spend more than 12 DAYS with my newly returned brother, wouldn't you think? I want to show him new movies and music, I want him to hang out with my husband that he's never met. I want to talk to him about his experiences and talk to the new Skyler, because he has changed so much. I don't want him to go up to BYU Idaho!! Thats 5 hours away from here, not even close enough to visit all the time!! I already know he will get teased a lot for going to BYU, you see, my family roots for this team:

 

     This was taken about a year or so before Skyler left. My dad went to University of Utah, and my two brothers took up being big U of U fans, and they kinda dragged the rest of the family along. We are the only family on my dad's side that likes the Utes, so we get a lot of crap for it. I'm sure Skyler will get quite a bit of it.... I always teased him that because he liked U of U so much, he would totally end up going to BYU. I honestly did not think he would do it!  

     I feel like I'm being selfish, but its a feeling I can't get over, I really wish he would take a semester off and hang out with his family, who loves him so much, instead of coming home, eating dinner, and leaving again for who knows how long?? Its so frustrating, and I just needed to vent about this somewhere.... Thank you all for listening to my ranting. I will entertain you with some pictures now...

See?? Friends since like forever

Oh you know.. Just playing Tic-Tac-Toe under a playground.

Thanks once again for listening to my rantings... I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, I can't believe its the weekend already!! 

Song of The Blog- Radioactive by Imagine Dragons.... Seriously.... Best Song EVER!! I will tell you now, make sure you listen to this song in a place where you have a lot of bass. It starts out slow, so don't be deceived, its sweet!
