cinco de mayo


This year Cinco De Mayo fell on a monday so OF COURSE we had to have a party for FHE. We decided that we were going to DECK out our apartment and make all kinds of mexican treats!! We had enchilada's, bean's, rice and Jarritto's. Everyone crammed into our small apartment talked, laughed, ate and of course danced to some Spanish music. (It was actually Portuguese because that's all Skyler has but no one knew the difference!!) This was nothing like a Cinco De Mayo celebration you would find back in Brentwood, but we all had a blast!!

st.patty's day!!


today was just a good day for me. I got to sleep in cause i have NO classes on monday and didn't have to go into work till 2. So i got all dressed up in my green outfit in honor of St.Patrick's day, watched some "what not to wear" and went into work. [just a little side note to make my mom proud: on the way to work i stopped at hork's to get skyler a dr.pepper and couldn't help but get myself a diet pepsi...i don't know what has happened to me!!] I made 2 sales in just my first half hour of work which is WAYYYY good. 40 bucks a sale, not too bad!! Then when i got off work i went to dinner with some girlfriends and came home to my FAVORITE LITTLE FRIEND!!! My roommate's boyfriend andy has to babysit his 2 year old niece every once in a while and tonight we got her!! I was in heaven. she is SUCH a cute angel and i played with her till she had to go home, [and she left chanting my name]!! Then Skyler got back from basketball and i got to be with him for the rest of the night :)! All and all i would say it was almost a perfect day.



Just a little side note: i think i am more tan at this point in time than i have ever been. Where did this tan come from living in the deathly coldness of idaho. . . snowboarding! crazy huh? i was just looking at this not so attractive picture of myself and thought of how crazy that was...lauren with a tan. i remember in 7th grade my nickname from my teacher was "pasty white legs". well my legs still might be pasty but my face is lookin tan!!

NOOO PARKINGGG


Tuscany decided to make half of the parking lot a no parking zone. It's a little ridiculous and you will still find a bunch of the girls who live here parking in the NO PARKING zone. So today i went and got groceries and it was a BLIZZARD outside so i decided to park in the no parking zone just to bring in my groceries. By the time we got back to my car management had posted signs on my car saying "NO PARKING! GOT IT?" and cones all around it. My roommates and i thought that this was entertaining

just because

i just think this is cute. i just think he is cute.
my life is still boring not much to update on. OH actually, i got a job. I'm a working girl now and i actually really like the place i'm working alot alot. But besides that, i'm still happy. and still boring.
