Hello, Goodbye!

As I noted in a previous email Jo is leaving me! Jo (my closet and longest best friend) is leaving me, to live in cold Idaho. I still don't understand why she would want to live in Idaho when you could live in nice warm weather in Arizona. I mean who am I suppose to go to the gym with in the morning? As much as I like to say I have self motivation, Jo really is who motivates me to get up in the morning to go? :( sad face
Okay, enough of my sobbing. Since she is leaving we had the opportunity to hang out a lot more. A couple of weeks ago Wendy and I took Jo on a girls night out.

Here we are at As You Wish. We did pottery painting, interesting how much you actually end up spending when you walk out of there. I would have to say, this has been the most expensive pen holder I have ever had!!Mongolian Grill: must I say more besides that it was delicious!
We then made sure to stay out late, Jo never gets too since she is a full time mom. It was cute, Jo seem so excited to stay out late watching a movie. We watched Duplicity...eh...it was alright, nothing great.

Okay this is pretty funny, here is a photo from when we were high schools. Wendy was a Junior and we were Sophomores. Pretty funny, sad thing is we still look the same. HA

I am so happy for Jo and her family! Good luck in your new home~ You will be Missed!
Enjoy life with your friends and family-

Did you Know?

This is a pretty sweet video about things I bet you didn't know!

It really surprise me, you will be amazed after watching this video. The video is put together very well and its worth your time. Check it out below.

Favorite quote from the video:
The 25% of India's population with the highest IQ's.... is GREATER than the total population of the United States
Translation:
India has more honors kids than America has kids




Enjoy life in our growing world of technology!

Senior Pictures

This week I got my senior pictures done with Photography by Jo!
Jo and I grew up with each other, we were the bestest childhood friends. We loved to play house, cook food, eat food, and play dress up. We grew up having each other, I knew she was always there for me, I secretly thought of her as my guardian angel.
Jo has become a wonderful photographer that I truly admire. She is leaving me in a week to go live in cold, cold, cold, Idaho and I am terribly sad! Of course before she leaves I made her take my senior photos becuase she is missing my graduation. Okay, enough of that mushy cute stuff... I'm going to start crying.

She did an amazing job, we had a lot of fun running around downtown Phoenix. The funny part of this story is Jo has only been to downtown Phoenix maybe twice, in the 15 years we have known each other. So it was fun showing her my side of the world I get to experience everyday.

Jo- you did such a great job, I cant wait to see the rest of the photos. To tell you the truth I have been waiting eagerly by my computer checking for your blog post! ha ha

Thank you again!!!

Enjoying life....ready to graduate!

Peru: traveling the word


No, I didn't go to Peru. However, I wish I could. My brother Josue just got home this Sunday from visiting Peru with his Spanish class. Yup, his Spanish class, see he goes to Mountain View. If your from Mesa that should explain why his ordinary Spanish class went to Peru.

I know, all of my Westwood friends think I sold out but I didn't. I promise my blood still runs orange and blue. For my brother......MtV..... well they have a better soccer team and obviously a better Spanish class.

I really liked his photos, so I thought I would share...out of pure jealousy

Enjoy life, I'm wishing I was in Peru.
