Sad day....

i love my sisters <3
Today was really slow all day at work.  It's been nice since the boss lady has been at a convention all week in Florida.  Everyone is much more laid back and less stressed than usual which is good.  I went tanning after work for the first time in almost a year.  I figured I'd better start tanning before I go to Vegas so I don't look like I'm a member of the Cullen Clan. haha.  I've been bored without mom being home.  She's in AC right now with my aunt and grandma...and I'm stuck here at home.  I made turkey burgers tonight for me and dad..they were pretty good.  Then I got some bad news about my sorority sisters brother passing away today.  We all knew him because we went to school with him.  He was an RA around campus and actually dated my second little for a while.  He even helped me sneak into her room one night so I could decorate it for big little and we talked about how he liked to watch Gilmore Girls and that we shouldn't judge him by it ....which we didn't.  He would come to our apartment all the time complaining of the noise level...when really we were just singing Lion King songs.  He was seriously a really smart, funny, and nice guy and will be missed by everyone who knew him.  Rest in Peace Kyle...may the angels lead you in.

Weight Watcher Wednesday

My favorite little cheerleader! This is my cousins girlfriend Meredith.   I absolutely adore her! She's like a little sister to me and she is one of the nicest people I know!
So I was freaking out all day since it was my weigh-in day.  Everyone knows you barely eat on weigh-in day...hoping you weigh less by the time you weigh in haha.  Anyways.. I really didn't think I was going to lose anything because I had a bagel, pizza, drinks, and filet mignon this weekend.  BUT I learned at the meeting that you shouldn't deprive yourself of the food that you love because one day you will break down and eat a whole pizza in one sitting...or a dozen bagels.  And I definitely don't want that!  I ended up losing 2.8 pounds bring me down to a total of...9.8 pounds in 3 weeks! I am SO happy..you have no idea.  It's been so hard to lose weight, but weight watchers has made it easy.  It's also helped to keep my mind off of Facebook.  It's made me more active and more interested in cooking healthier meals...it's actually fun!

never want to see another easter egg again!

these are the eggs and beach balls i had to blow up haha
So...since the egg hunt is coming up, I had to stuff plastic Easter eggs ALL Day!  I kid you not.  It was fun to play with the toys while I put them into the eggs though, I can't lie haha.  And we had a little egg fight in the lobby so that was pretty entertaining.  Needless to say...I was EGGhausted hahahaha. I'm corny sorry.  Then after I had to blow some eggs up and beach balls for the babies.  I was so tired when I got home that I just put my PJ's on and laid on the couch.

hi-ho hi-ho it's off to work I go...

god I miss Aruba...being tan...andddd MY BIFFY!
Another Monday...they all seem like a blur.  As usual I was busy...Phone ringing off the hook, stuffing some easter eggs for an egg hunt that's coming up Saturday, and copying a lot of papers.  I was unusually tired though for some reason and couldn't wait to get home.  When I got home, instead of taking a nap I decided to push through and do some Zumba and work out a little.  I'm so happy I did!  After, I went outside in the hot tub since it was sooooooo nice out!  Then mom and I enjoyed watching Secret Life of the American Teenager together... such losers I know! haha but I love the show despite the terrible acting!

Steak Sunday

This is one of my bestest friends in the whole world!  Kim has been there for me through everything and I love her to death!
Sunday, Mom and I went food shopping and to Home Depot.  Home Depot took foreverrrrrr because she was trying to return a light that she bought 2 years ago.  After we got home and unloaded the groceries, we went to get some steak on a rock in Elizabeth.  Steak on a rock is SO GOOD.... if you haven't tried it.. YOU MUST! you cook it yourself at the table and put some nice garlic and butter on it...DELICIOUS!!!  Then we came home and relaxed for a little until Army Wives came on.  Mom, Dad, and I watch it every Sunday...cute, I know.  I feel like these weekends just fly by!

Happy Birthday Ali

This picture is kinds old but happy birthday ali! Love you!
Saturday was my cousins 22nd birthday! I slept ALL day since we didn't get home til 5:30am.  Finally I got the motivation to get ready and Sara and I went down to Long Branch to Avenue to celebrate with Ali. Shitshow doesn't even describe the events that occurred. But, It was a good time.  Sara and I headed out early since we were exhausted.

Happy April Fool's

I really love the backstreet boys.  Nick and I had a moment outside of the gym at Mohegan Sun before this concert.   He was on the elliptical and I was leaving the pool area... I took a double take and We locked eyes...I was shocked...he realized I recognized who he was...smiled and waved.  I was star struck
Everyone kept calling me Ms. Brandystar at work.  Quite comical..but I am proud to have won the award!  I got April Fooled by a 90 year old...that was amusing. haha.  I had a hair appointment after work.  My hair dresser and one of the other hair dresser's ...and myself were the only one's in the place.  So we were obviously talking about crazy things.  It was a lot of fun and helped to pass the time while my dye was setting in.  The phone rang at one point and I was so confused bc I had a feeling it might be my mom.  Well with that, the one hair dresser's boyfriend was there and he goes..I'm going outside for a cigarette I'll be back.  He comes back in and goes..."Man someone's car got really messed up...looks like it was a hit and run."  and I was just sitting there and my hair dresser goes... "What kind of car is it?"  and he responds "some ford...it's kind of like an SUV...it's a brownish color and parked on the right.  The tail light is off and everything."  I said yeah right and asked if he was paying an April Fool's joke...he kept the straightest face in the world and I ran outside to check....my car was fine and they all yelled april fools! Such jerks...but my mom DID call and tell them to do it haha.  After my hair, I wasn't sure if I wanted to go out or not but I decided just to go since it was our friend Jenna's birthday.  The night was insane and that's all I can really say.  I walked into my house at 5:30 a.m. and proceeded to talk to my parent's as if it was 5 in the evening. haha I just had to tell them about my night.. They think i'm crazy but that's okay!
