my life...

My life lately has been very hectic!! I end school on the 12th of April and I have 3 more essays to write or finish writing for english. I have one paper left for New Testament. I have to make a color board for Textlies. Thank-goodness I only have like 2 ten question quiz's in Pearl of Great Price, and they are easy. And then I have drafting, I have to draft: one floor plan, one kitchen elevation, one bathroom section, a finish schedule, and a RCP (this shows were the lights go and where the switches and outlets go.) this is something that I learned is that the interior designer figures out where all the lights go.
So I haven't even started on any of that and I have 12 days left!!! go thing all my classes are on tuesdays and thursdays so that means i only have 3 and a half day. Most of my teachers have told us not to come on our last day! :)
What else have I done.....
Well I have figured out my rooming for the fall. That was a little hectic. You could ask my mom I called her like 5 times a day it seems like. BUt I am excited where I am moving. It BRAND NEW (like they are building them right now). And it is right across from my school. And it is going to be furnished, washer and dryer in each unit, granite conter tops, brand new energy saving appliances, huge walk in closets, kitchen, living room, fitness center, theater room, close to work and school, and internet and tv. (they give us a plasma tv.) so after saying this I pay $290 now and then in the fall they are raising the price to $310. And at this new place I will be paying $335. So for all of the extra things I just said I will any be paying $25 more. For me its worth it. A lot of people its not. But I am ready to get out of the place. I like it, but the internet SUCKS and I want my own kitchen.
Any ways what else have I done...
Well I was riding the Trax with some of my friends to go to California Pizza Kitchen (my brother gave me a gift card for my birthday and I have been saving it for a special day) any ways. SO we get on the Trax and this homeless guy is sitting on the bench and we are all standing. Well he starts to talk to me. And I being nice talked back. Well he invited me to sit across for him. So I did, so Im not rude. And he asks me all these questions like where Im from and also where I lived. I did not tell him that one. well the right place where I lived. ANd then it was time for us to get off and I told him goodbye and it was nice meeting him. And then he went to shack my hand and I shook back. And then he kissed the top of my hand.........lets say I was freakingout when we got off the Trax and thank goodness my friend had hand sanitizer. Dana is dyeing laughing, she is like crying at this point. Looking back it was funny. But at the moment, no.
Oh I also went to my cousin's baby shower. Congrats Marisa!!! And i loved seeing everyone. And my uncle and my other cousin fixed my tires! And my car. its running great now! I just got to get my oil changed. but i just don't know when with school, homework, and work. But I will figure out something.
So I think that covers it all.

Love Cassie!

Writer Block.

So i am writing a paper about Go Green. And how being "green" has taken over our society. Well I wrote my intro super fast. And then my mind went blank. I have so many ideas, but I dont know where to start. And then its also a research paper sort of. So I have to have 5 sources. And I dont have them and I wont have them till tomorrow when I go to school. So I dont want to start with out them. But then I would only have Wednesday to write it, cause on Thursday we have peer review. But I am have been procrastinating all day today. And I just cant get myself to write it with out the sources. So am I going to write it. I dont think so. It was Laundry day again. I swear it seems like it takes longer and longer every time I do laundry. But today has been a day looking for apartments for me. I am most likely going to stay where I am (where I dont like) or go to this place called the Seasons. Its bran new, like they are building it right now. Granite conter tops, living room, laundry in the unit, brand new appliances, BIG walk-in closets, fitness center, two bathroom two bedroom, plasma tv included, internet/cable included, and fulling furnished. And it is right next to my school. I meen RIGHT next to it. I really like it, but I have to think about it.

So I am so ready to be done with school. I have 4 more weeks of school left and I can wait till Ems, Jared, Mom, and the girls come out!!!!! I am just ready for some parties this summer!!

At weight watcher, after 3 weeks of not going, I forced myself to go. And I gained 1.8. But for three weeks being off of it I thought that that is bad but at least I didn't gain like 5 pounds or something. But I bought I lot of food so that I wont go out to eat somewhere. And I am not going to eat at the Carriage Cafe anymore. For one thing, I ran out of money on my meal plan, the second thing is that its expansive, and its not the best food for me. So I am going to bring my food every day. PB&J anyone!?!?!
YUM!!!
Well Have a great week!!!
Love,
Cassie

Green day!!

So today is Green day, I found this out when I went to school today and I noticed a common color on everyone. Green. Lets just say I forgot. I knew it was this week and I knew it was today, yesterday, but when I woke up this morning it didn't cross my mind. I got dressed, got ready and walk to school. When I walked in to class what was I wearing a purple shirt from The Gap. HAHAHA. It just makes me laugh. But for once I didn't get pinched. I guess thats a plus. Anyways...... today was a good day. I had a good time in my classes and then I Skype with the Girls, jared, and ems. oh and mom in the background. But for some reason they could hear me but I couldn't hear them. weird. it seems like that happens every time. But I LOVED seeing the girls!!!! They were soooooooooooooo cute!! I cant wait to see them in on April 12th!! They are coming out here. Jared, Emilee, Mom, and the Girls are coming out to see me and the fam. And then help me move out of the Plaza (this is where i live now). And then Ems and Jared and the Girls are living the 19th. And then me and Mom will start are drive home. Yes I am coming home for the summer!! I cant wait to see everyone!!! And to be home again. Go to some amazing dance parties. Sleepovers. staying up till the wee hours of the night (even though I do that in college). Oh and did I mention Smallville the latest season (with Kendall!!!). Oh and maybe a trip to Atlanta to vist my much missed family the Stokers!!! Its going to be a great summer fulled with hard work. I am going to have 2 jobs maybe 3 if i can find another one. nanny anyone???????? I'm great with kids!! And I love them to death. Well im off to bed. I cant wait to see all of my Alabama friends!! And to sit on the Blake/Fellows row in church!! haha.

I suck at photoshop!

Ok I haven't wrote in a week and I need to get back on track. So earlier this week I changed my background on my laptop to a picture of me and Madelyn. I LOVE this picture!!!!! By the way if you make it on my background of my laptop you are truly loved by me. It gets changed like once a week cause I want to see all of my old friends and remember some loved memories. Well back to the picture of me and Madelyn, we booth had really bad red eyes, so I decided that I was going to fix that. Well instead I deleted Madelyn's eye. And in the frantic moment I saved it and clicked the Xon the top of the window cause I couldn't look at it. Well there was know way to change it back so this picture was ruined. But it was still my background with both eyes on Madelyn's face. I tried seeing if I could save it as a picture, but no good. So I cant get myself to change my background because otherwise the picture with both eyes will be gone. Heres the pic.

Its so sad. :(

On a happier note I finished "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lighting Theft" so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yesterday I read it from 5pm-1am. I loved it!!!! I couldn't get myself to stop cause I knew I was so close to being done. I cant wait to read the next book in the series. Who would have figured that I would have said the I LOVE READING!!!! This is crazy. Its like I need to e-mail all my English teachers and say hey I started reading in college and I love it! Thanks Aunt Ju!!!! your the best.

I love living so close the my family out here. For once I feel like they are my family not just people we come and see when we come to Utah. I love my Aunt Di and Aunt Ju, they feed me on Sundays and let me watch some TV. Its crazy for once my Aunt Ju's kids, my cousins, remember my name and remember who I am. I dont have to tell them who I am and them being like all shy cause they dont know me. And for once I feel like my cousins Lu and Mal, Aunt Di's kids, think of my as a friend. I love them so much! They might see me and a 13 year old like they used to, but I dont think they do anymore. Just the way we hang out and talk. I love playing Michel Jackson with them and watching The Amazing Race. Lives good!

Love, Cassie

Textiles!!

So I am taking a class called Textiles and we learn everything you can about fabrics. The fibers, yarns, threads, the different kind of fabrics. Well one of the assignments was to weave some different weaves. We did this on little weaving cards. It first It was hard but then it got easier as the time went by. Well I got them back on Thursday adn I forgot about them untill I looked thought my backpack this morning. So here they are.

This is a Plain weave, the EASIEST!!
This is the basket weave, easy also
this is the sateen weave, this one took awhile for it to process in my head but I got it.
This is the Satin weave the opposite of the Sateen weave, harder also.
This is the twill weave easy, well after I figured out that it is best to count, (2 over 2 under)
The Herringbone, this one was also difficult, but I just counted out the pattern and I got it.

I got called into work today, :( so no church for me) but what can I do. Its Utah everyone is Mormon, so we have to have a rotation system. And I haven't work for 2 months on a sunday, so my time is up.

well I got to get ready.

crazy times doing homework!

So yesterday when me and dana where doing our drafting homework we got a little cooky. After 2 hours of drafting, and our backs killing us. Dana leaned back in her chair and I just happened to have my camera ready.





So I kind of made her reenact it to get pictures. But it was so funny!!!!! I was dyeing laughing!!

Me and dana don't have the best of luck with our chairs. My seat cushion almost everyday falls out from under me. So when this happened to Dana we had to take pictures of when this happens to me.



But beside all of that I finished my drafting homework and I must say I rock. I had to do 3 elevations: one of a kitchen wall, one of a kitchen island, and one of a bathroom wall. We had to personalize them. We had a floor plan to work off of (just the dimensions). But I loved do it!!!! It was so fun and I know that this is the right major of me. So here is some pictures of the finished drawings. Sorry some of the pictures didn't turn out that great. I didnt have the best of light.

Kitchen wall. 12 by 12 tile backsplash, double ovens, and conter top range
far away picture os the kitchen wall, the ceiling went all the way up to the roof. the tallest point is 19 feet.
This the the island. on the right is a dish washer, and then a farm house sink. and the counter top is a wood block. (that is what I want for my kitchen!)

This is one of the walls of the master bath, it is a full tub, and the shower and backsplash tile is glass tile. and the shower door and wall (that you can see though) is glass.
close up on the shower and one of the sinks. the other sink is on the other wall and we didn't have to draw it.
this is the tub and a little window.

Well I hope you liked my post. A lot of pictures today.
oh and I lost .8 today at weight watchers, so i am up to -5.6 pounds lighter!! My 5% goal is 9 pounds so I am 3.4 pounds away!

Oh and another thing, my Aunt Julia convinced me to read Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief, after watching the movie. ( I LOVE that movie!) I am on chapter 4 and ready it is SOOOOOOOO different then the movie, but I really like it so far.


Love, Cassie

Sick once again.

So last night I was so congested that I woke up like every hour. And then when I woke up this morning I had a runny noise, head ache, no voice, sore throat, and I ached everywhere. My legs kill, I guess from tossing and turning last night. UGH!!!!! So I had to call in sick for work even though I need the money. But I have to work tomorrow too, and they need me more tomorrow. So I am reating up. Not really I have a boat load of homework to do. I have 3 papers due on tuesday, I have finish 1 but I haven't even started on the others. And then I have to draw 3, count them 3 elevations for drafting. And I am so confused about those. Can I just say they are SUPER hard. And I need to do this all today because I am working tomorrow, sunday, and monday. UGH again!! pity party for me. Well I need to get cracking on all my work. So I am going to go. but I will leave you with some pictures i found off of StumbleUpon!


newspaper anyone?
Can you find the people?

I wish this was my keyboard!!! YUM!!!
I want this to be my room!!!!!!!!!! that view!!!!!!!


LOVE, Cassie! :)

where do i fit in?

ok everyone so this week fo me has been a little depressing. so 4 count them 4 of my friends has been asked to get married. ugh and 2 of my other friends are just waiting for the ring. and another one of my friends even though she says there not going to get married any time soon I can feel the proposal coming.

now dont get me wrong I do not want to get married!!! But a date would be nice.

but so I have been missing my fam a lot lately, with my birthday and with missing my nieces 1st birthday (which I feel like a horrible aunt)

I have been working a lot lately and my feet are killing me. but i guess I get what I ask for, 3 weeks ago I asked my boss if I could get more hours and she said for sure. But it has takin it toll on my feet. I had to buy foot insoles.

So there will be no report on Weight Watchers this week because I am working tomorrow in the morning, so another week of waiting but I should pull out a bigger number since I didnt go this week. Well thats the goal.

Can I just say I stink at Bananagrams.

Oh and today after this post I am going to go through all my clothes. Cause I have to many clothes that I havn't even wore since I have moved here. So I am going to give them to this store down here called Uptown Cheap Skate. You can turn your clothes in for money.

I feel like me and Dana spend way to many nights at home asking the question "what are we going to do?" " I guess watch Friday Night Lights." Which by the way we are already on season 3. I feel like out side of a couple of school friends we really dont ever hang out with anyone and we dont really know how to even strike up s conversation with people in our ward or guys for a matter a fact. i guess thats why I haven't got any dates so far after being out here. You know I was taught all my life that when you turn 16 you will get your first date. yeah that didn't happen. My first date even though it was fun when I got there, was when I was 17 and I was the guys 3rd choice. (it was a group date and the other 2 girls already had dates, oh and he asked both of the girls right in front of me.) And then everyone told me its ok Cassie that you only went on like 3 dates cause when you get to college you will get a date every week. wrong again. I guess its just me cause at first I was saying it was the guys but what I told you about all my friends getting married it must be me. Which make since cause when I go to church we just try to find an open spot and then I keep to my self. I mean I answer questions in sunday school and RS. And people know me (i think) but they dont KNOW me. SOoooooo I am going to sing at ward prayer this week and then in Sacrament next month.

thanks everyone for letting me vent.

Love, Cassie

hello...

Hey everyone, I know its been awhile I have been so busy with work and school. I am now working about 20 hours a week and then I have 13 credit hours at school. oh and my foot was killing me this week so I went to the doc and he said I have Plantar Fasciitis. So he gave me some meds. And Im off to work again. Can I just say something else to add to my list. anyways, What have I been doing with my spare time? working on my profile paper for English. I decided to write my paper on Weight Watchers. So here it is. I would love feed back. And it won't hurt my feelings.

Weight Watchers

Weight Watchers has helped many overweight people become healthy individuals. Weight Watchers has developed a new formula that is supposed to help the members loss more weight and eat healthier. Weight Watchers has tried to listen to their members and their concerns, and because of this they have made the program better, more preferable, and far superior then other weight loss clinics. Weight Watcher’s goal is not to have you concentrate on an unrealistic goal, they want you to concentrate on a practical goal.


When I walked into the concrete building I was shocked. I was expecting it to be a depressing environment, because who likes hearing that they are overweight. In spite of that, all of the employees had a smile on there faces and made you feel like it was ok if you didn’t loss the amount that you wanted to. They look at the bigger picture. Claudia, a Weight Watcher leader, said “Many people join us with an idea in their heads of how much weight they’d like to loss. We encourage them to forget about that number for a bit and focus first on 5% weight loss.” For many people, including me, the 5% goal seems like that can be achieved. “And that’s the kind of goal we want you to start with: one that you know you can do.” Claudia continued.

I waited in line for what I thought was going to be the end of the world. As I got closer and closer to the end of my world my heart started beating faster and faster. As I stepped on to the scale I squeezed my eyes shut not wanting to see anything. “Ok, you can step off the scale, here is your booklet. Have a great day.” As I walked into the meeting room I couldn’t help but look on the inside of the booklet were it said my starting weight. After seeing that number I knew something had to change. “When you notice your in a cycle, just change something, anything will do.” Rebecca, a Weight Watcher leader told us in our meeting. For me my “something” was going to Weight Watchers. Rebecca continued by saying “Things that don’t change remain the same.” This is my first step to not remain the same, to change my life around.


Weight Watchers has changed their formula in calculating their points. Its called the PointsPlus formula. “Foods are ranked within categories using a proprietary formula. In our rankings, we were looking not only at foods’ ability to be filling, but also on health (how their contents of sugar, sodium, saturated fat, fat, and or fiber stacked up).” stated in The PointsPlus Getting Started Guide on page 18. In the new Weight Watchers program they have made fruits zero points. Which is a great incentive to grab an apple instead of a candy bar for a snack. The PointsPlus Getting Started Guide, on page 58, says “Fruits are especially filling, especially nutritious, especially powerful foods. We’ve been helping people lose weight for a long time, and, in general, we don’t see people becoming overweight because they ate too many bananas. But we do see that people who eat fruits for snacks and with meals feel satisfied. They’re great foods, and we want you to feel encouraged to eat them.Thats why we made then zero PointsPlus values.”


Weight Watchers has many tools that can help you lose weight and conquer your weight loss goal. Weight Watchers has a tracker, were you can write down what you have eaten and how many points you have used in the day. In this new program Weight Watchers has tools that are on the computer and can be downloaded to your smartphone. This is great for a lot of people who are on the go and who are on the computer a lot. Weight Watchers has come out with this amazing PointsPlus Calculator, this calculator figures out everything for you it can figure out PointsPlus values of anything, calculates your daily PointsPlus target, and it tracks your daily and weekly PointsPlus values. Weight Watchers has also published four books for their costumers. They are titled Dining Out Companion, CompleteFood Companion, Ready Set Go, and The PointsPlus Pocket Guide. Also, when you go to the meetings after your weigh in you get a Weight Watchers Weekly.


“Activity burns energy and therefore has an impact on your weight-loss progress. Activity PointsPlus values are our way of helping you measure that impact.” stated in The PointsPlus Getting Started Guide on page 76. Weight Watchers wants you to get up and move, so they have added a program that allows you to earn more points daily based on how much daily activity one participates in, each activity is worth a different amount of points based on the endurance level some activities include, taking the stairs, walking more regularly, playing with your kids, etc. “Activity can be therapy for mind and body!”


Weight Watchers has realized that it’s hard for their members to spot filling foods, so they came up with the Power Foods and Filling Foods program. This program is a mini program within the Weight Watchers PointsPlus Program. The Power Foods include fruits and veggies, lean protein, non-fat and low-fat dairy, and whole grains. In this program it also states that you need liquids, healthy oils, multivitamins, and the be active.


In conclusion, Weight Watchers has helped many people with their old program, but with their new program they are going to help double the amount they did before. Weight Watcher’s new program has helped people not just think about their weight but conquer your goals in life. Weight Watchers is hard, but the results far surpass most diets people experiment with. Weight Watchers succeeds in helping people reach their goals.


Love,
Cassie

So today I was not able to make it to Weight Watchers today because I had a Brighton staff meeting this morning. And by the time I got done and came home and got ready they were closed by the time I was ready. So.... I will be going in on Monday and thats when I will give my report.

But so Dana and I went to Costco for lunch today. (free samples!!!)

Then we went the target and I bought a new laundry basket(it has wheels!!!). My other laundry basket has been completely ruined!!! So this was a much needed purchase.

But the exciting thing that we did today is that dana's sister gave us the password to her Netflix so we are watching Friday Nights Lights, its a TV show, it is supper good!!! Its like Remember the Titans but a TV show.

And then I made us some Potatoes and eggs!!!!!!! YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It reminds me of home thats for sure! My mom always made potatoes and eggs. She taught me well! Can I just say yummy!!

work and a surprise in the mail!!

So this morning I watched The Biggest Loser!! Can I just say I love that show!!!!!! Its so good!
anyways then I went to work for 9 hours. UGH!!!! It was so long and my feet kill but I will deal with it. I mean I kind of have to right? But It was a really great sale day! I sold over $1000! woot woot!

Then I came home and what was sitting on my desk???!?!?!?!?!

A letter from my Cousin Matt, I mean Elder Kjar! It was the best letter I have ever read!!! He is having so much fun at the MTC and he can't wait to go out into the mission field! In his writings it sounds like he is like 30 years old. He has matured so much in just 2 weeks. Its crazy. He writes all these amazing things about the MTC and about the gospel that it makes me wont to go on a mission NOW!! He said this, "If I were asked where the spirit like to be, I wouldn't say the church, or even the Temple, but the MTC. The spirit flows through here like a warm breeze. He walks by me and stands by me everyday and helps me teach to my fullest extent. The Lord loves everyone of his children. It's my job to show them the path to come back to Him. I can't wait for the day when I get to see my Savior, Standing before me, and Inviting me into his merciful embrace. I know that he is my Savior, my Redeemer, and my Friend."
Isn't this kid amazing!!! I want to be like him when I grow up. (even tho we are the same age)
love,
Cassie

today...

So today I wrote a letter to my cousin Elder Matthew Kjar. Thats right he's an Elder. I went on line to this amazing website www.dearelder.com . This website is so cool they send letters for free to the MTC and you can send cookies or anything really (for a price) but I thought that was really cool. Who ever thought of this website I would like to thank them.

Well today I started and finish all my homework which I thought I was never going to finish. But I just decided that I was going to sit at my desk and not get distracted. Which my roommate Dana would vouch for and say that I get distracted by the littlest of things. If you only knew how long it takes me just to write on the blog, you would laugh.

Anyways, my teacher told me about this great program that you download off of the internet. And it is the amazing program that helps people, like me, who cant spell. Its like ten times better then spell check. So if you have children that have a hard time spelling I completely recommend it. Its free to download, and it's called ginger software. The website is called www.gingersoftware.com
I love it.

Well I am going to finish getting ready and go to Walmart, cause this girl needs some milk!
love ya,
Cassie

what have i done all day????

well I woke up at 8am cause weight watchers meeting was at 8:45. I lost 2.4 pounds!!!! woot! woot! Can I just say doing weight watchers on a meal plan in college is HARD!!! but Im doing it. So what else did I do today????? well I have slept. actually I just woke up. I forced my self to wake up so I could sleep tonight. But trust me I want to go back to sleep! What am I going to do the rest of the day. I think some movie watching. I am a huge movie watcher, if you didn't know that. I love almost every movie!! but because I watch movies so much I'm starting to run out of movies that I just resonantly watched. i guess that means 5 dollar movies at Walmart will be calling my name next time I go to Walmart. Well I am going to go and watch "Just my luck" and "Sweet Home Alabama" two great chic flicks!!!

Today has been a great day cause I lost 2.4 pounds but also a boring day.
love ya,
Cassie
