The Best Birthday EVER

Wow, I totally just had a three day birthday extravaganza :) it was wonderful.

First, we had a barbeque with Evan's family. My mom made awesome flank steak that was so tender it melted in my mouth :) . We also had fresh picked corn on the cob and a delicious pasta salad Denise brought and fresh fruit she brought too. I love that my two families get along so well, its a big relief that they don't fight or anything crazy. After dinner we went outside and sat in the back yard chatting for a while, Denise couldn't stop raving about the view, it is pretty sweet :). Then we had delicious italian cream cake with chocolate ganache and strawberries. To. Die. For. Ya know, I think that them singing to me was the first time I have been really embarressed in a really long time. I guess I am not an attention whore :P

Well any way, I went home with them and then Evan gave me my ring. God, its so pretty and its so me! Its amazing and I love it :). Tuesday morning we got up and ready and hit SLCC for Evan's Biology test while I waited with some coffee in the student center. Then we headed up to lagoon.

It was kinda sad though...second ride we go on was Wicked and Evan's phone slipped out of his pocket and hit the pavement below. He was really bummed out...I kinda feel like it was my fault...he didn't really want to go on it. Then we met up with Heidi and came back and did spider and wicked again. We found out that they do a perimiter sweep of the ride around 3 for lost items and that gave us a glimmer of hope. We did a good amount of rides and ate some sweet treats.

It was so hot that day so we went on rattle snake rapids and got soaked. The waterfall totally got bigger because it used to be that only one person would get wet and now everyone in the raft gets soaked no matter where you sit. But it was fun. Then we hit some fun rides and I made Heidi go on the Sammeri for the first time. We all loved it, though it squished Evan a bit. It was really cool that Evan and I wore matching batman shirts to lagoon because we got 6 different compliments from people. Yay for nerdness!

We checked lost and found and low and behold and it was there. The phone was not blasted to oblivion. The LCD screen was shattered so his touch screen doesn't work but the phone can still get called, he just can't answer, $100 fix verses $400 for a new phone, much perferable.

Heidi had to jet because she had to get back to rehearsals for Scarlett Pimpernel. So Evan and I got some dinner at Arby's and then chilled in the cool grass of the picnic area :) . We went on some more rides and got some dippin dots, Evan's first time having them...they are the bomb.com! any who, then we hit up one of those cute photobooth things and had fun taking some adorable pictures. Evan said "We are now a real couple right?", he is so cute! By that time we were exhausted so we went on one or two more rides and then headed home.

We got home and had to head straight to the basement because Denise was having her annual book club and we didn't want to interupt. So we watched some tv and went to bed. We were so tired. Today was kinda chill, we went and got some hair bleach at smiths and I fixed my roots because my hair has already grown at least and inch and a half if not two inches since I bleached it. Then we got all dressed up and fancy and went to cheesecake factory for dinner which was super delicious. Man I love the food there. It is just top notch! The cheesecake to die for of course. Though I ordered that to go...and I got hounded when we got back because everyone wanted my cheesecake, then we hung with griff and dill for a bit and then Evan brought me home.

It was an awesome birthday celebration, I still think its weird that I'm 19 now...eh I'll get used to it.

Love,
Carly

Harry Potter...and My kind of Secret Addiction

So I have seen Harry Potter 7.2 twice since it came out and it is phenomenal! In a cliche way of putting it: it made me laugh, it made me cry! But for real the movie is fantastic! The sound track alone is amazing, I am considering buying it (and I don't buy sound tracks). The acting is great on all sides and the directing and styling choices were superb! I really loved it. The only thing I have a real complaint about was that I HAD to see it in 3D and I didn't like the 3D, it made certain action sequences dull a bit because I couldn't focus my eyes. Also for any readers out there one book to movie transition that got missed was Lupin & Tonk's child and the follow up in the epilogue. Other than those two things they pulled it off brilliantly. It is definitely my favorite of the movies. Stupendous work by all involved, oh now that I think of it there was one moment where effects failed me a bit, when they are flying out of the room of requirements herminone's shot is so obviously done on green screen it looked like a shot from a theme park ride (took me out of the movie for a moment). Okay, I am seriously done complaining. It was wonderful and I am just a crazy fan girl.

Moving on, so ya know how I posted a few weeks back on 'Black Milk Clothing'? Well... I have kind of become obsessed with them. I've ordered a top from them and I am anxiously waiting for the next collection to open so I can purchase more. I watch their Facebook site like a freak and scan through 300+ pictures more often than I care to reveal. Oh and I have this odd obsession with being the first of my friends to discover them. I want to walk around college and have people go "wow! where did you get those? they are amazing!"...I am kind of a freak. So yes I am obsessed...but I always have had a love for clothes and when they are as cool as having a picture of a sweet green and blue galaxy on your legs who can resist?

Ciao,

P.S. I found this awesome Harry Potter video go check it out.

HARRY POTTER!!!!!!!!!!

I am so excited!!! Tonight is the premier of Harry Potter 7 Part 2, the final installment of the series that has defined this generation...and my childhood. My Harry Potter dweebness can be summed up by one simple fact: when I packed up to move this last time I had a box labeled: Harry Potter and Other Important Documents. I seriously think I value my Harry Potter books on the same level as my passport. I am sooooo excited! I have midnight tickets and I am going with my brothers since all of my harry potter nerd friends are gone...they are in Illinois watching it there cause one of our friends moved there :( so I will not be able to dweeb out as much as normal...we are starting the part one right now so we can get in the mood for it :) :) :)

P.S. I'll probably post again after while spazzing out about the awesomeness

Life is goin' Good

Haven't posted in a bit, and I am bored while waiting for Yoga to start...so I am going to ramble about my life :)

So my friend and I played with photography and it was fun. Anyway, we just put on pretty dresses and went out on her extensive property and took pictures of each other. I had to teach her the rule of thirds but once that was accomplished we got some pretty awesome shots. It was a bunch of fun, especially editing them after, we took like 500+ pictures and I whittled it down to around 60 usable shots, but hey everything is a numbers game, if you shoot enough pictures you will get some good ones.

I had an awesome fourth of July with Evan and his friends and family, tons of fireworks...seriously like probably $1000 worth with Evan and his friends plus discounts and free packs. It was a blast!

Been working mostly lately, I work then chill with Hulu then see Evan on my days off. Speaking of Evan, he got me a kick ass promise ring for my birthday and I am sooooooo excited to show it off, but I don't get it until my birthday on the 26th and I am dying of excitement. Its going to be an awesome day. We are going to Lagoon and I am inviting any of my friends to just show up and we can chill together or just meet up for cupcakes. Its going to be fun.

I am really excited to be 19, more than 18. Because when you tell someone that you are 19 they will automatically assume you are college age verses when you are 18 and they don't know if you are in college or high school. I don't know...just cool. I am excited.

Evan and I found this really awesome place to eat this weekend, I definitely want to go back, the food was good and the atmosphere was amazing. Its called The Blue Plate Diner and any of you readers in Utah should check it out, it has a very fun artsy-California vibe. I enjoyed it a lot.

Oooooo another fun tidbit from my life: I got offered a management position at McDonalds. I have only been working there for a month and a half and they apparently were impressed. I can't take the position because I have to get back to college in August but it was still awesome to get the offer. I was just leaving my shift and the HR manager grabbed me and said "so I was hoping we could start training you for management soon" and I was totally breathless. Amazing.

So ya that's my life lately
Ciao,
Carly


P.S. I have finally started updating my iPod....first time in two years...be proud.

Black Milk Clothing

So a few weeks ago I found this company called Black Milk Clothing and I LOVE their stuff. I have decided next paycheck/birthday or whatever I want to buy SOMETHING from them. I just don't know what. There are so many cool options but they are too expensive to buy too many. Hmmmm...I could get the R2D2 swimsuit:

I could get a pair of the sexy leggings and there are soooo many leggings!











Or I could get one of these:
