And it's definitely April. April's actually coming to an end. Oh geez. I'm terrible at documenting. I know I say that every time but I feel the need to say it always. Quick update on my life.<br />
<br />
I finished 3 straight semesters at BYU Idaho<br />
I am currently doing my internship at Mountain River Vet Clinic in Rigby, ID<br />
I live above the clinic.<br />
I still have my late night custodial job, but I strip and wax floors. I know, fascinating.<br />
I have a boyfriend named Levi Nation.<br />
He's pretty awesome.<br />
And handsome.<br />
My roommate Anna got her mission call to Fortworth, Texas.<br />
She's leaving me. Forever.<br />
Not really. But seriously.<br />
<br />
And that's about it. I feel bad if I forgot something. But too bad! Because I'm always butt tired and I keep forgetting things, like showering. I love life, and I cannot wait until I actually get paid to be a Vet Tech. It'll be awesome! I love seeing all these surgeries and cleaning teeth (which is pretty much what I have been doing) and I cannot wait until I graduate in 3 SEMESTERS!!! So I'll be done Fall 2014, which seems like forever, but hopefully it will fly by at the speed I'd like it too. But it never seems to.Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-11478188805497487042012-11-01T15:23:00.000-07:002012-11-01T15:23:16.065-07:00Way stressed out!!!!

I am now done with my first semester back from BYU Idaho. It was a thrill, but I'm glad it's over. I managed to go through the whole semester without getting sick and I finally did at the end. I feel like crap because I was overworked so much but it's over, and I am relieved. Relieved that finally I can start Vet Tech classes and relieved that Aaron comes home in four months. I'm nervous to go home because I won't be doing anything except occasionally working and hanging out, but my schedule will no longer be jammed pack with school, work, and church. Church will still follow me home, but it won't be as busy as it is at school. But enough about the boring life, these little comics are the cutest and I love them all. They're usually naked in them, and I don't know why, but this is one of the few where they're clothed. But anyways, I'm excited to go back to California for a little bit, but it's going to feel weird because every time I go home I feel like Idaho never happened, and I never left Cypress. It's even weirder when people (Channing) visit me in Idaho from Cypress and my two separate worlds collide. But school is over!!!! I survived!!! It almost killed me, and I don't care whose semester was worse, it was still hard for me.Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-82167020575628214452012-05-11T00:07:00.000-07:002012-05-11T00:07:10.643-07:00My kids are going to hate me.Names that just so happen to all start with C, that I love.<br />

And facebook. And tumblr, pinterest, and constantly checking my BYUI account for classes. I forget how stressful this is. I just want the perfect schedule but people keep filling up my classes. I'm almost positive I won't be able to get my first, second, or third choices and I don't have a fourth choice for my classes. I just do not want 8am classes, that is all I know. I don't care how late they go, just dont make me wake up that early. And I wish the department head for getting into the Vet Tech program would email or call me back. I hate the fact that I am making an huge effort trying to get a job and getting into the program is all going to waste because people forget common courtesy of calling or emailing me back. Goodness gracious people!! A little common courtesy wouldn't hurt. <div><br /></div><div>But anyways. Aaron only has 8 more months! It was 7, but then it got pushed back a little bit, the way the transfer dates are set up. I'm secretly hoping it's all a joke and he's coming home sooner, but I don't think it is. I can dream though, can't I? Yes I can, that was a question that me, myself, and I were only supposed to answer. </div><div><br /></div><div>I have the Slow Club and Edward Sharp concert coming up this weekend!! And I'm going to donate blood because I have a rare blood type. And my brother is coming into town with my sister in law Jennifer! And there are the issues of family pictures....which is going to be stupid. But I just put on a somewhat happy face for my mother. </div><div><br /></div><div>That's all I can think about right now because I'm going on a run with Kaylene tomorrow at 7am and she's going to kick my buttox, so I'm going to get some sleep now! </div><div><br /></div><div> </div></div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-4020281800521794612012-02-15T01:27:00.000-08:002012-02-15T02:02:05.762-08:00So Tired, but Must BLOG!<div>start off joke: </div><div>what does a nosey pepper do? </div><div>get jalapeno business! </div><div><br /></div>I've decided to start becoming an addict on blogging because I forget easily. I will stick with this! For my memory! And my future children! And I just had a bunch of girl scout cookies, those peanut butter patties, which are really called tagalongs or whatever. I miss girl scout cookies. <div>back to the point. </div><div><br /></div><div>SO! I just got back from the Asteroids Galaxy Tour, so fun! She was literally the best female performer I have ever seen. She knew how to work the crowd and was interacting and the music was so filled with trumpets and awesomeness and everyone had such awesome talent in that band! She got so close and just was pure awesome!</div><div><br /></div><div>I got back into BYU-I!! I felt like a high school senior again waiting for my acceptance letter.

I need to update this more often. Not for my "fans" or should I say "fan" (you know who you are...Beccca.) But I have been mucho busy. Just same old same old, work and more work! But since my little Landon is leaving for the Philippines this coming February 22nd, he is jamming every thing he's ever wanted to do ever! And I am lucky enough to be included.<div>1. First off, I got to see Conan O'brien, TWICE!! The first time was Shaun White, this comedian from the new show Key&Peele, and the musical guest is not worth mentioning because they were crap. It was crazy though to see the studio and all that jazz. The second time was Martin Short(adore him!), this actor from the show Walking Dead...ZOMBIES!!...and the music guest was Dr. Dog. </div><div>2. I've been going to a lot of concerts. The number I've gone to in the past couple months is the most I've been to in my entire life combined. I went to Growlers, Augustana, Graffiti6, Lana del Rey, and now Dr. Dog!! I saw them on Wednesday on Conan and then tonight! And I'm going to see the Asteroids Galaxy Tour on V-day, Slow Club, and Edward Sharp! If you are truly my friend, you will like at least one of those bands. The ones I have been to have been fantastic, some more crazy than others. I like being a girl because I can push a guy but if he pushes back every one takes him for a douche bag and grabs him, throws him, and asks if I'm okay. If you're wondering, yes that did happen. Also a guy asked for my number. I gave it to him. He was a sweetheart. I have no intention of ever calling him. I guess I should've told him I don't have texting. All well! </div><div>3. Movies! So many midnight showings. Chronicle is so amazing!! If my kids are reading this, you are going to see this movie. I just love super power movies. I still love superhero movies, but when they inherit powers and just kind of do whatever they want with them, it's just more practical for me. Because not every person thinks "oh yeah, I must be a superhero now!" It's the noble thing to do, but not everyone thinks to do it. But back to movies, there are supposed to be a ton of awesome movies coming out this year like HUNGER GAMES!!! and yadadadadadada. The rest of them aren't that important. </div><div>But yeah. Life is pretty great here in Cypress, but it's just because Landon is here, and Devon just got back! He honestly hasn't changed at all. He's matured a lot, but he's still same old funny awesome Devon. </div><div>It's still sunny in California! I can still wear dresses, so be jealous all of you other states that are wearing scarves and gloves!! It's been a warm winter. Especially since my summer was robbed half the time from freaking the coldest summer I have ever remembered in California. </div><div><br /></div><div>But I must be going to bed, it's 2:32. </div><div><br /></div><div>Hasta luego, internet!</div></div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-43880494348253686472011-12-24T02:10:00.000-08:002011-12-24T02:55:09.210-08:00Growlers CONCERT!!So me and Channing Laufou were talking about how summer was a haze, and that we don't really remember AT ALL what happened during summer....but I keep forgetting I have a blog and I can actually record my life!!! And I would with a diary, but then my mom would read it. So I figured I might as well just put in on the internet...for everyone else to see. Including her. But we're just going to keep it from her, sounds good? <div><br /></div><div>So I just got back from the most INTENSE and AMAZING concert ever! It was INSANE!! First off we get there (Landon and I) and there's a little folk country band. Not too shabby, then there was the Tulips. Go into the pit and get pushed around like no ones BUSINESS!! No joke, there was a guy on the ground with a skateboard that came up and hit me in the head. I still have a huge bump on my face but its a souvenir! And then just got pushed around even more and pretty sure I was on the ground a couple times. But it wasn't until the Growlers, the main band, got on...thats when it all went down....</div><div><br /></div><div>Landon and Chad jumped over the wall into the pit because it was so full they weren't letting anyone down there, so about halfway through the show I followed them and once I got into the middle, a guy just kept giving me a thumbs up, so I just kept giving it back to him, and he finally said, "you go up?" and I still wasn't sure what he meant, so I said yeah and he and another guy grabbed my legs and put me on one of their shoulders and I was up in the air for a good 2 minutes until I landed on some girls. It was amazing music, got thrashed around. And then people started going up on stages and hugging the lead singer, and the show got cut short because of that. It was insane!!!!! That's pretty much it in a nutshell. </div><div><br /></div><div>But other than that Merry Christmas to all!! Its Christmas EVE!!!! I still don't feel like it's Christmas, but that's because it doesn't snow, and hardly anyone put up lights because who knows why. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-21075066178781238742011-12-08T23:39:00.001-08:002011-12-09T00:11:57.090-08:00Just an update, for my terrible memoryI feel like my blogs like my pensieve from Harry Potter. My little storage cupboard of my memories. <div>BUT first things first. THE MUPPETS. Everyone go see it. It's amazing. I can't even begin to think where to start because I loved it all. Except this one scene that involved rapping for 20 seconds, but other than that....awesome!!</div><div>Its Christmas time!! We still haven't gotten a tree, and I don't think my mother wants one...sad day. Since apparently we're "all out of the house" there's no point. And apparently me and Brennon do not exist. </div><div>I went to Arizona for Thanksgiving! It was a shady hotel we stayed in, where there were lots of black people and smoking weed. But other than that, it was greaaaaaat. </div><div>Aaron has 11 months now. He is sending me a Christmas gift....and I wish I knew what it was. </div><div>Work work work work work. Yeah that's what I do in my spare time. That and roller skate...whaaaat. </div><div>The new season of Psych is AMAZING...and hilarious as ever. </div><div>I have a new friend, Ashly Hannah. She's awesome. She goes roller skating with me, since no one else will.</div><div>I'm in the bell choir. It's pretty fun. I just wish that I could do it forever!!! Like go on tour...thats possible right? </div><div>My knuckles are dry and cracked. </div><div>I want to travel somewhere, go somewhere knew. But like Ireland. </div><div>That's about it right now. </div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-26051133511993064962011-10-05T23:51:00.000-07:002011-10-06T00:42:28.050-07:00Many Reasons Why I Very Much Dislike My Singles Ward1.

He is doing awesome as well. I hope he never reads this, and he never knows how much I actually talk about him. Which is a lot. No one show him my blog. At the end of this month it will have been a year since he left for the MTC. I've never missed a week writing him, and hopefully I never do. I just like him a lot. Like a lot a lot. And it seems like he's never coming home because time goes by so slowly in Cypress. I blame it all on the Singles Ward. There is no other reason. </div><div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzYes96NAStQJBYVvjRZSUtyFdJFU4k9oY6ut8N5r9zSLv4NzhoNXyzvD-_Yd7q9PYBK1-QjEROCNO-HR848Ub_yftVm7Ym09kmeUWspB3XB_fOsgARDtdVqQB78F1TpypIQnUQ1S_BGo/s200/tumblr_lcful1QaDx1qzne5lo1_500.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5660280118094952562" style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 139px; " /></div><div>My Becca Boo is in Florida.

Which brings me to my trip to Utah. It was fun. Conference was fun! I got to go in for the Sunday morning sesh and see the Music and Spoken Words. (I think that's what it was called) But there are too many couples in Utah, and it's too Mormon for me. Rexburg is perfect that way. Other than that, it's just been work, work, and more work. And with this gloomy rainy weather, I don't really care to do anything else. No more beach...:(</div><div><br /></div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-79220464316409854142011-08-15T12:38:00.000-07:002011-08-15T13:31:06.408-07:00Decisions, Decisions
<br />
<br />Wow, I have not blogged in a looooong time. I have never been good at it anyways, so there's no worries that I haven't written in a long time. So first thing is first, life is good! Ups and downs, but for the most part it is wonderful. I just cannot wait to go back to Idaho. Which brings me back to my decision. I want to go back earlier than January, and there are some community housing, but I would have to get a job which wouldn't pay as nice as Dr Rummler's. And I do like Dr Rummler's but that is the only thing keeping me in Cypress as of right now. There is a community house that I might do, and I would take care of an old lady and work on the farm! Who knows though? Or I can just stay here and be sensible, and save up? But it's so boring!! I can do what I want!! HAHA!!<div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhES1Uu4tnbbbSc8uKE7Ob2OZtLvpjn0mPWuXsCwXokFup7xd-KVTYfFNtts3x7imZc3aO09aD9iQLSbTj4zz50CsEF_ee_YesFCTcnCDrVJsqgX2bGaENcuXlJjDM7h8jJCXXVr_44QOA/s200/DSCF3570aaron+light.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5641180970600192930" style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px; " /></div><div>In other news....Elder Aaron Light is on his mission. It has been about 10 months, and isn't it supposed to get easier the longer there out? I felt pathetic because I watched The Other Side Of Heaven last night, and it's such a sad, hartfelt, funny, depressing movie. Yes all of those combined into one. I shouldn't have watched it, that was a bad idea. I am very jealous of him, because he is on an adventure that I wish I was living. But he is doing the Lord's work and he is loving it!

I just miss Kendra and Kelley so very much. Everyone really, it was so nice to actually hang out with people my own age. But mostly this summer I've just been working, which I don't mind at all. I love Dr. Rummler! Yes of course I have those days where nothing clicks, and never goes according to plan and I can't focus for some reason, but those are only once in awhile. I have been working there for a year now, so my contract is up to leave or not! Gahh!! I don't know what to do with my life anymore. All I know for certain is I am going up to school in January. That is one of the only things that is certain right now. </div><div>
<br /></div><div>Well I must be off to another day of work! Monday through Thursday, and lovin' it!! </div><div>

And let the record show that I did go to Ensenada, Mexico before this, but I did take pictures on my disposable camera (keepin' it old school) and I knew that Brittany was going to post all these pictures on facebook, especially the ones I liked. So what we didn't get pictures of was me around the city, which I love, going to the Farmer's Market, which was ALSO very amazing. It was like a swap meet for food, and you got to try all of these AMAZING foods which were all organic and fresh! I bought some smoked salmon which tastes awesome and some homemade pear apple juice, all organic, no added sugar. And I also got this little pixie stick shaped honey thing, which was SO GOOD. And we went to this amazing crepe place called Le Happy, best crepes I've ever had in my entire life. We went shopping but mostly to look and not buy because everything is super expensive because it's all little boutiques. The church is a little weird here because it's a branch, and you've got really rich fancy people and homeless, former gays and former girls that are guys and vice versa, which is freakin' sweet because where else can you find an LDS church branch likethat. My favorite thing about here is the food, by far. And the outdoorsy-ness of the city, and all the GREEN! Everywhere! But I guess rain is the price they have to pay in order to get all that green.<br /><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLTFIgUt06sppTcZ9qgFhHa2firFmlC6RsXOB58xy3N0mL3Mdis6yV7_kkjB-SVgCadFaRSi8TjKKx4L3uI7PxpLUfHxBoq_bD6g0Spb6nIcrDqVC9cor2g8d71d8OMpgPY1N-ifHtYJA/s200/IMG_4935.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612441584684170850" />another place in washington.<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTJOaSjxHIN-CN7npDlAO2Gm0nCyErOzeI9QZ2By6Usp2lF_CeL8DGa6Xiai8u8nL0CjWqh-hXqcb2fQgBgyA_gcrxR0q1vY2NE7xp3iBIMU-Rf5pMdFK1gRmgsYMb__RgJdkMXTBSPwI/s1600/IMG_5230.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTJOaSjxHIN-CN7npDlAO2Gm0nCyErOzeI9QZ2By6Usp2lF_CeL8DGa6Xiai8u8nL0CjWqh-hXqcb2fQgBgyA_gcrxR0q1vY2NE7xp3iBIMU-Rf5pMdFK1gRmgsYMb__RgJdkMXTBSPwI/s200/IMG_5230.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612440424764330258" /></a>this is me, trying to get the jammed key out of the lock. thank GOODNESS that the door opened, or else we wouldve left gretel, the dog inside there for awhile, and she wouldve thrown up, because she did oustide</div><div><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbBaIUNTfLWLfDr8k51pN4obX67Fjvoa2frx61YotfNjuUvHd9bob8way_lhT60DxVpZr_pRNhZU02MY2wYgY6aER_PkDzqIzvWyiH0Na04Te8zQTQT8vOptFB6h2_wa6wDm4V5jRqcEE/s200/IMG_5271.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612440757964609058" />the view from brittanys apartment at night, with the free lights i put around the balcony area. sooooo pretty to look at</div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKzo2U1-yYn1Xr20tvtBSVaasoQWvLqCrt8awV6wn9tzNWEBC_aq9Oz6Ge3ecN-dE6wm34KyjESu7_YLNz-tQS13ZpVGravdXYZ3BGDnF02r7ew8nWXnR8QfjLb5hsJzyDL7F_IOtV364/s1600/IMG_5183.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKzo2U1-yYn1Xr20tvtBSVaasoQWvLqCrt8awV6wn9tzNWEBC_aq9Oz6Ge3ecN-dE6wm34KyjESu7_YLNz-tQS13ZpVGravdXYZ3BGDnF02r7ew8nWXnR8QfjLb5hsJzyDL7F_IOtV364/s200/IMG_5183.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612440000356762146" /></a>our hike that we never went on!!</div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg8UNvl3YwOhLoHldqbBcQLWS08VVwj5wO0knAFNlOW6ZWmcHB7ZZYIOxoS6q742L5T54phX9GyNzdII7O3Oo3ztQYxaCXHRZ-PmoHZ-uPux9CCHchvefubKFFlU6RQcHa_xBPb5UK-30/s1600/IMG_5127.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg8UNvl3YwOhLoHldqbBcQLWS08VVwj5wO0knAFNlOW6ZWmcHB7ZZYIOxoS6q742L5T54phX9GyNzdII7O3Oo3ztQYxaCXHRZ-PmoHZ-uPux9CCHchvefubKFFlU6RQcHa_xBPb5UK-30/s200/IMG_5127.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612439640997448466" /></a>abbey road. dog style?

It will make sense, but I'm going to skip from topic to topic super quickly because I haven't posted in a really long time!!<div><br /></div><div>So I got a letter from Aaron Light!!! Gahhh!! He is doing so well. He is getting better at the language, but just had a mission companion that was his trainer that wasn't the best person in the world, but by now he probably doesn't even have him anymore, cause that was back in the beginning of February. It's only been 5 months...but it'll fly by!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Oh, I'm going to Portland, Oregon to go visit Brittany Zika!!! I am sooooo excited, and I've never been to Oregon so I can just cross it off my list of states! 10 down, 40 more to go!! Actually I'll probably skip a couple like Texas and Oklahoma. Those don't really appeal to me. But I'm hoping I can visit Becca Mattson in Florida!! I'm just going to be crazy as always and buy a ticket right now!! Actually no, I don't have the funds for that!</div><div><br /></div><div>I'm going to Palmyra this summer! That's mainly why I don't have the funds for Florida. That'll be another state I can cross off!! I'm super excited for that!</div><div><br /></div><div>The date for planning on going back to BYU-Idaho is constantly changing. Probably not the Fall now because I want to see my Becca, and I love my job so very much to give it up. I know, I know, I go to school to get a better high paying job, but I don't want to go through all that school yet. Maybe when Aaron comes back I'll be almost done with school. I'll just plan it that way. Yes, I'm a psycho girl that is secretly waiting for a missionary. </div><div><br /></div><div>The number of boys I've kissed is 22. Jordan Claspell will be my number 23 victim, since he is in fact, 23 years old! I've never actually been the person to make the first move and kiss the guy, I've always been kissed for the first kiss, so this shall be an experience for the both of us! Hahah....but he needs to kiss a girl.</div><div><br /></div><div>Lauren is coming home in 9 days!!! I am so dang happy about that too. She is going to be the best! Now if BECCA MATTSON just came home and stayed here, that would be just as good!</div><div><br /></div><div>I'm taking an art class and a piano class at Golden West City College!! It's super nice to actually wake up to something, and drive to class! My piano class ends this Monday, but then I'm going to start taking this Circut Training class, which is a workout class. </div><div><br /></div><div>Music! Might be my new major. I don't know what in it, but I doubt it will stick. I would love to work with music, and not making it, but putting it in movies and all that shiz! I don't know how to explain why I want to do it, but when I hear a song I can see where it will be in a movie. A lot of movies are either terrible or really good at putting music into movies. They'll either have it spaced out way too much or too squished, or they'll have a song that kills the mood or helps it. Or I'm going to be a food critic. Because I love food.</div><div><br /></div><div>I really want to move to Portland. But I'm visiting Brittany so I can see what it's like.</div><div><br /></div><div>Boys are gay. I know that's old news, but I'm done with them. I've given up! No man is worth while. This will probably last for 1 week until I meet someone. But seriously, lately no guy has been worth calling or making plans with. It's a kiss and then they won't talk to me for about a month or longer and then call up and want to hang out again. So I'm done with boys!</div><div><br /></div><div>I love my sisters! They are all so great to me! I visited my sister Kaylene at work yesterday as a surprise and she was so happy! I love making them happy like that, but for some reason they ask me to do the strangest things(mainly my sister Kandice) and I don't really want to do it. They figure since I'm not married, don't have a real "career" and I'm not really going to school that I can do everything for them(still mainly Kandice) but I still have a life! It's ridiculous. But I love that I can visit them and just hang out with them. </div><div><br /></div><div>Everyone keeps asking me about Chris and Morgen, and I honestly DON'T CARE! Every time someone sees Chris they have the need to tell me. I'm happy for Morgen because Chris is a good boyfriend, and she's never had a real boyfriend/relationship. I'm not mad about it because frankly, the longer time I would have spent with Chris, the more trouble I would have gotten into and the harder it would have been to get out of it. But Chris definitely has a type now, and that's MORMON. And that's good, because he has good taste. </div><div><br /></div><div>I'm going to be running the 10k in Seal Beach!! I'm probably going to die, but that's okay!! I'm secretly training for Havasui Pai as well. I hope I spelled that right. My dad's only requirement is to run 3 miles in 30 minutes. I don't know what my time is right now, but I'm pretty sure I've ran 3 1/4 miles in 30 minutes. So just BARELY!! I want to go to Havasui Pai so badly though, just hopefully there are no flash floods when I'm down there. </div><div><br /></div><div>I went snowboarding with Landon, and his cousin Chad, and Tino, who I kept calling Toni. And it got to the point where I was joking at first but then I really forgot if it was Tino or Toni. It was super fun! I got bruises on my butt, but it was worth it!!! I got really good towards the end of the day, which was an 8 hour day. Landon was gay and he used skis. So he wasn't sitting on his butt all day when he got tired, and his butt wasn't frozen like mine. </div><div><br /></div><div>I'm modeling for Jan, David's mom. As well as Photoshop work.

I know I'll be just as gross if I get engaged, but seriously!! Everyone is. I don't know if it's just this time of year but in this past month 5 people I know, from BYU Idaho or here in Cypress have gotten engaged. That's probably an exaggeration, but I can think of 3 from Idaho right now. But that's all I have to say. Oh one more thing.

Yes I know I'm a creep. But they'll never know......shhhh....</div><div><img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs256.ash1/18358_604908782724_193308127_34494715_5346891_n.jpg" /></div><div>Aaron Light: He didn't really have any "missionary" pictures, so this is what we got. Aaron is from Montana, and I met him up at BYU-Idaho, and I'm pretty much in love with this kid. We write each other every week because he's still in the MTC and I seriously do not know what I'm going to do when he goes to the Philippines. His letters are always like I'm trying to break a code because he's in the process of learning Tagalog, and I'm his guinea pig. So when I translate it on google translator (I love Google!) it always comes out in broken English, or it doesn't even translate. I wish he was going somewhere Spanish speaking, that I could understand. He's only been out for 2 months, and always has the best letters.<br /><div><img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs156.snc3/18363_273712977682_502762682_3532378_1440890_n.jpg" /></div></div><div>Devon Nitta: My half Japanese man!! I miss him terribly and now it takes approximately 4-6 weeks for my letters to get to Argentina and back....it seems like an ETERNITY since I've talked to him via letters. But he sent me and Amelia a tape, which was him mostly talking about food, but it was sooooo nice to hear him talking in his white/japanese/black voice! Which reminds me, I need to send him a tape. He's been out for I think 8 months now? About that. I miss him!</div><div><br /></div><div><img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1128.snc4/149049_452360292502_540742502_5653688_1229174_n.jpg" /></div><div>JEFF!: So Jeff didn't have any missionary pictures either, maybe it was just Devon. But Jeff, I'm pretty sure I don't miss him as much as I know who, but I still miss him. He's such a ball of light, and so pure. I'm almost 100% positive that he will enjoy his mission. Unless he gets robbed or something, but knowing him, he'll see the silver lining and think that the person that robbed them needed their valuables more than they needed it. </div><div><img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs336.snc3/29388_394367935851_678795851_4336403_412857_n.jpg" /></div><div>FREAKIN GARETT!!!: I'm probably the worst friend when it comes to writing him, but I truly miss him with all my heart. He is sooooooo nice and sweet. I should write him. After this I will. Because I don't even know what's going on in his mission or how he is doing. Great, probably. </div><div><img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs128.snc3/17553_1082480597768_1698955322_148212_7263936_n.jpg" /></div><div>Neal: Yeah, I don't really miss him too much....because I don't honestly know him or got too close to him. But I feel like I am because Brother Rummler always talks about him at work. I wrote him once....but we'll see if he has the chance to write back. He's been out for 10-11 months? Something like that. He is worth putting in here because I know a lot about his mission. </div><div><img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs043.snc3/13040_208195611406_503626406_3946223_4398526_n.jpg" /></div><div>David: Yes. I miss him. He's in Japan, and loving it! His mom constantly tells me how he's doing, and I just let her tell me. It's hard to hear stories about him, but I would rather have it that way then not hear about it at all. He's been out for approx. 8 months I think. </div><div><br /></div><div>Those are the missionaries I can think of off the top of my head, and I feel like I'm missing one, but I guess those are the important ones? </div><div><br /></div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-74844320733280189232010-11-15T01:43:00.001-08:002010-11-15T01:58:53.150-08:00Rexburg Visit!!!So I visited Rexburg, Idaho. I am still here and I can't fall asleep, and I realized I haven't blogged in awhile. (I only thought old ladies and moms could use that word, but it turns out I can say it too!) So, it has been good up here. I got here, gave Kendra a super super big hug!! And then I went to say hello to JT Hurt, and hung out with him for a little bit. And on Saturday I woke up, took cousin Skyler to Ramirez's (best freaking Mexican restaurant in Rexburg) and then went over to Lauren's apartment, who was soooo happy to see me!! She was probably my favorite person to hug when I saw her. We watched Psych and then I went to her Stake Conference. Then after that, I went on a date with Skyler's roommate, Evan, who is so precious. He's still like a little boy and just has the purest face I have ever seen. We went lazer tagging and the gentleman that he is, guarded me. It didn't help much because I came in second to last on our team. But it was okay, I'm glad that one of my skills is not lazer tagging. It would be nice to be good at it, but I guess it doesn't look too good on a job application. Then we went to this pretzel place and got gooood pretzels and came back and watched Singles Ward the movie, and I forgot how funny that movie actually was, especially watching it and being in the Singles Ward. But then I went back to Laurens apartment and we watched Leap Year, which was super predictable but really cute and actually kind of funny. But I fell asleep while Lauren and Kylie were talking, and then kept waking up because Kylie was still sitting where my feet were and I felt bad if I extended them, but I kept doing that in my sleep. But then on Sunday, I went to their Stake Conference and then visited Jordan, Will, Matt, and met Matt's little brother Joe, who is adorable. Then we went back to Lauren's apartment, made spaghetti and homemade meatballs which were scrumptious! And then I went back to Jordan's apartment, and hung out there until curfew, and then came back to the yellow house and talked to Kendra for a bit. I miss Rexburg, but only because of the people, I don't miss the school or sharing with girls at all, but I know I have to come back.

I dont get it. </div><div>Anyways. Just have been home. With the stomach flu, which is my least favorite form of sickness. I've been locked up in my room for the past 2 days because my mom is afraid I'm going to give it to someone. On the brighter side of things, at least I'm losing weight? Right? </div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-5990217185760441062010-10-12T22:29:00.000-07:002010-10-12T23:18:51.114-07:00MONTANA!!So yes, I did go to Montana. Everyone says, "You're crazy!! Why did you go?" or "Why are you going?" Yes it was for a boy. I've never done that before, and let me tell you, would not change this past weekend for anything!! Unless it was my future husband. But seriously, it was an awesome experience to go up to Montana again. <div><br /></div><div>So, his name is Aaron Light. And this is where it gets even crazier. He's leaving on his mission in 3 weeks. Yes, he is still going on his mission. I didn't stray him off any path, girls are not that evil. He knows what he's doing and is on the straight and narrow path, and I swear if he even thought about staying for anything that was associated with me (which I know he would not) I would probably set him straight, and slap him. He is going to be an awesome missionary. </div><div><br /></div><div>Anyways. So the trip. He picked me up from the airport and we went to go jump start his car, which ended up not working. So we went back to his house, to go get the EXCURSION, which was this HUGE van. Not even joking. But his little sisters were there and they remembered me! And they are the cutest most funniest girls ever. They are just a crack up. (I sound like a mother talking about her children to her friends). But after that we went to Wal-Mart to go get shot gun shells, then to his friend Dave's house. We were just trying to figure out what to do for the day, and I shot some gun that looked like one of those crazy army guns. And then we went hunting with his friend Mason, cause he was leaving on his mission on Wednesday which is actually tomorrow! Crazzyyy. And then we went to go see the Social Network movie which was amazing, and thats when I saw KELLEY and SHELBY!!! I love them. To death and back. We all went to Denny's, and Kelley had at least 8 pancakes, it was nuts. And then I went back to Dave's house and fell asleep. </div><div><br /></div><div>Saturday, I woke up. Hung out with Aaron and we were going to go paint balling but it was raining, but I went shopping at Good Will instead!! Yeah for trips with KELLEY and SHELBY. Then we went bowling and I totally rocked! Not! Saturday wasn't as eventful but it was still just nice. </div><div><br /></div><div>Sunday, we woke up went to singles ward and went back to Shelby's house where I jumped on the trampoline until family ward, and then I headed home</div><div><br /></div><div>It was seriously the best! I freaking love Montana and I want to move there. But apparently it's cold all the time. All well. </div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433752981319487345.post-22788917779783587242010-09-25T11:41:00.000-07:002010-09-25T12:03:23.940-07:00Beauty in the World<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15.8333px; ">So, there is a lot of beauty in the world.

No, I do not ever want to be a dental assistant but you know, it's not as bad as I thought. I was pretty sure that I was going to be sitting down all the time, but I hardly get to sit down, it's so nice! I am always doing something and I always have to think ahead. That's the difficult part is planning ahead in my head of what I need to do next, whether it be setting up the patients next appointment, sterilizing instruments, setting up the room for the next patient, developing films in the dark room, wiping down the instruments, mounting films, answering phones, assisting Dr. Rummler, and yada yada yada. It is so nice to have a job right now. <div><br /></div><div>I still don't know what I want to do with my real job, as in my career for the rest of my life. I want to do something adventurous and that no one really hears about when they ask what your major is. I want to travel, and plan parties, but what kind of job is that?? My dream job would be to plan weddings, or put soundtracks for movies together. But right now, I'm just concentrating on online classes, work, and saving up money to go service abroad in Russia. </div><div><br /></div><div>And I have a date tomorrow on Wednesday with a cashier guy I met at Ralph's.

Because seriously....I have the WEIRDEST dreams. For example<div><br /></div><div>The Dream I Had Last Night...</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks to the new movie Inception, it explains that we never really remember how we end up or start our dreams, which is what happened. I was just at this random house and David, (ex boyfriend) was there, back from his mission, with another girl.....uhhhhh....yeah. Awkward. And for some reason I was trying to get dressed into this weird flowing dress and the girl that he was with just kept laughing. And so then....I just got into the bathroom and David was in the shower but he came out in jeans and a white t-shirt. Then he just got really close and then just walked away. What is wrong with me?? So then I ended up in this jail cell but I wasn't a cell mate or anything, I was trying to break everyone out. I have a tendency to do that. In my dreams not real life. It was Voldermort's jail and I had this whole elaborate plan to get everyone out which required me to do some kick butting. I wish this was real life. And so after I do that, I see David and he starts telling me how much he missed me and now that he's back from his mission we can get married. Weird right?? I haven't seen this kid for almost a year now! (In real life I mean)</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Soo...I dont know what that means. That's the second time I've had a dream about him. Ughhhhhh....the other one was how he got to come back to California for 2 weeks off his mission and he came to see me at a church play thing or something like that. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>But there was much more detail in my dream and it actually felt real. Ugh. </div>Karina Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01897778041514252706noreply@blogger.com0
