Tonight my friend Jane and I made our way to the temple in NYC for FHE. The temple doubles as our church building for those who don't know. The first, fourth and fifth floors are the temple and the second and third floors are the chapel and classrooms. We got into the elevator with a cute couple who started asking us about the distriubtion centre. We told them it was closed and then asked if they were from NYC. They said they were visiting but wanted to check out the Temple. We got to talking and then they said, "well, you might know who we are?" Jane and I looked at each other with puzzled looks and replied, "um..no, why would we?" They began to explain that they had been on the Today Show (which films in my work building) because they had just gotten engaged. They then told us that the reason they were on the show was because the engagement ring was put in the girls milkshake and she ate the whole thing without noticing the ring, she swallowed her ring people! The guy then pulled out his Iphone to show us the x-ray, Jane and I were dying! Check out the clip.

Snowstorm....Really?

I do love snow, but really, this so-called snowstorm and the closing of schools and people freakin' out, c'mon, its not that bad. Maybe its because I have to be at work while others get to be lazy bums. I took this picture from my cell phone this morning right out side my apartment building door. ALright, so a few cars might slip'n'slide here and there, but just strap on those snow tires and giddy up!

Saturday was a beautiful day where I got to wear just a short sleeved t-shirt and bask in some glorious sun. This was the perfect way to relieve some stress of driving a huge-ace 16 foot Budget Rental truck for some friends. I am not complaining on helping the girls move (alina and anna), but it was an adventure driving in NYC and squeezin between double parked moving vans and taxi's, God bless mr. tony j for being the eyes in the back of my head! The move was a success and the afterparty with pizza and treats was awesome, thanks girls!

3 Month Countdown

Today I had my little update from HR. They decided not to go through the process of applying for sponsorship. Now you might wonder, well why not, Jeff is a lovable guy (apparently not)! Actually, the fees to just apply are not cheap and even if my company did apply, it doesn't guarantee me an acutal visa. The company says its just easier to hire an American and not worry about application fees and renewal fees. So there you have it, I am giving up my spot so one of your fellow comrads can work, gee, aren't I nice.

Now what? Well, I am going to move to Utah and bunk with my sister and her family for the month of June where I will study for and take the GRE, ahhh!! I do start my online classes mid-May and so I will be working on those classes and possible head to Korea/Japan to teach English, who's in? If anyone has other suggestions, send em my way.

Things That Make Me Smile

I was sitting right behind Federer for this shot, AMAZING!


This one is HILARIOUS!

Back on Schedule

As we all know, or well, you should all know I love my reality TV. In the past week my two favourite shows started up again, Surviviour and Amazing Race. I love the drama (good drama, not crappy stupid back-stabbing drama, even though there is a little, but with good intentions), and I also love to see where they get to travel too.

For instance, on Amazing Race the first country they ventured too is my all-time favourite place in the entire world ahhh...drum roll....SWITZERLAND! In Switzerland they had to do a 70 story bunjee jump! I was freakin' out cause I hate heights and I wasn't sure if I could have done it, it was insane! Then the teams had to haul 200 lbs of cheese from a hill top down to a shed, I was laughing so hard at them all falling and sliding down the hill. My two favourites so far: the mom and son (he is deaf), and the hick Virginians.



Survivour always proves to be a real treat. People try to be nice in the beginning, they make alliances - thinking they will last, and they try to act as if they know whats going when they really don't. This season they are in Brazil and its sweet. I don't have a favourite just yet, but we do have the token mormon who has already stripped down in the buff in order to collect water. He told the ladies it was okay to look if they wanted, ha ha!


Two weeks from today my other favourite show starts, America's Next Top Model (ANTM). I do miss our weekly get togethers at Alicia's parents place, where on most occasions Ross (her dad) would join us and give us the low down on who was cutting cut and why. They do some amazing shoots and its cool how they can make non-attractive girls good looking! Check these out.

Certain of the Uncertain

I am pretty much lost at the moment. Those of you whom I am have spoken too understand what I mean, but for the rest, well here it is.

New York has been such a great experience for me. I have always known that the time would come when I would have to face the fact that I might not get to renew my visa. Nothing has been set in stone yet, but you know, when everything seems to point in direction, you just can't help but know. I am still staying optimistic, cause thats who I am, but on the other hand, I am certain that I have no idea where I will be without the visa.

I have been doing alot of thinking and coming up with crazy ideas, like hiding out in the US undercover, or trying to travel somewhere abroad like Japan, Thailiand or even European destination, but then I would have to resort back to donating plasma to earn funds, ha ha!

Who knows what will happen, but I am certain that I don't have any idea of what that will be!
