Here is the synopsis: After Daniel Miller crashes his BMW convertible into a bus, he's transported to "Judgement City," where he meets the love of his life, Julia. Unfortunately, Daniel needs to defend his life on Earth before he can ascend to heaven with Julia. He frantically attempts to explain the positive things he's accomplished, but soon realized that Julia may be too good for him.
I really liked this movie, I kind of got it on a whim because I saw it on Netflix with movies you might like. So I put it in the queue and it came yesterday and I finally watched it after waiting months. It was interesting to see some peoples perspective on what happens after we're dead.
Like it says in the synopsis Daniel has to defend his life. He's in a court room with his defender and there's a prosecutor and two judges. The judges decide if you should go back to earth and try to not be so fearful or if you can move on and go to heaven. While his trial is going on he meets this woman named Julia and they fall in love.
I would give this move a four out of five stars. Only because some parts were a little boring and I wanted to see more of his past. But overall it was a good movie and I was happy with the ending.
Funny thing is that in the movie Julia is played by Meryl Streep and then 18 years later she plays another Julia as Julia Child in Julie and Julia. Anyways happy watching.
PS I start school tomorrow! Scary Scary!

I found myself in a pickle
Today is Sunday so I did the normal thing of showering before. And earlier today I decided I would wear one of two new skirts I picked up at a clothing swap that was held by my parents stake. So after I showered I tried on the skirts and realized that they were basically maxi skirts.
I ended up wearing one that was a maxi skirt and as we got to church I wondered "why did I shave my 'secret garden(aka my legs)' if I was just going to cover them up?" Something I will never know. But I found out that I love wearing maxi skirts because they keep my legs warm in the very cold church.
That's how I found myself in a pickle wondering why I shaved my legs when all I was going to do was cover them up with a maxi skirt.

St George Trip
This was a bug stuck in the truck we drove down to St. George in
As you can tell I was "happy" to be driving 300 miles....again
Our awesome drinks haha
The Scenery
Our only picture of us together and I'm not even looking, great right?
Yeah, that's a story right there
Our pretzels from Fillmore
My gross nectarine with yogurt on it.
I got home from girls camp on Friday and I was texting Sidney on Saturday and she was talking about how she was driving down to St. George with her dad's girlfriend to get a car her dad was giving her. I totally jokingly said "oh hey can I come with?" and she said "let me ask my dad."
I ended up being able to go obviously because I'm blogging about it. So Sidney and I left around 2 or 3 from her house and we got to St. George about 6. Ate dinner and went to sleep. The next day we wanted to leave around 1 or 2 and we ended up not leaving until like 4! It was horrible, I felt like I was being held hostage. Oh funny story we were running some errands in Hurricane (pronounced Hurrican) and the car stopped working, now her dad had said it stopped working sometimes and I was worried about it but I didn't think it'd actually happen! So we were right by a gas station and so we just pushed the car to the gas station which was something I've kind of always wanted to do so I got to check it off of my list. But two super nice people came and helped us. Only because Sidney and I are SO attractive haha.
After we left I drove the whole way first of all Sidney is scared of driving on the highway and secondly I'm always hesitant to let someone else drive, I've been that way ever since my accident. So I just drove, we made a few stops along the way, like at some desert town in the middle of nowhere, and a stop in Beaver for drinks and pain meds.
Before we left Sidney's dad's girlfriend Sandy gave us money and told us to get gas half way there. So we stopped in Fillmore (this is the story about the receipt with the boy's name on it. It has a number on it, but I decided the whole Internet didn't need it.) Sidney suggested we go to Maverick so we did, and I've never really done the whole prepay gas thing so we went inside and were going to ask and stuff. We walked inside and to our right was a woman and she had two people in front of her and a guy who only had a guy in front of him, so I decided to go to the guy (who knows what would have happened had I gone to the woman) and we were talking to him and he was flirting with us and we were flirting with him. Now he says that had we left right after we'd gotten our gas we wouldn't have his number so thank my lucky stars I was hungry.
We got our gas and as soon as he saw us come in he hurried and checked us out. And then he said well have a nice day, and I said oh we're not leaving yet we still have to get food. So he said okay well then have a nice time getting food and I said we will.
Sidney and I walked a couple of aisles made sure no one could see us and started laughing, haha it was a great moment. So we started looking for food and Sidney left it to me because she had to go to the bathroom. so i tried looking but I couldn't decide. and Ethan(that's the cute guy) walked by and he waved and I kind of awkwardly waved back. After Sidney got out of the bathroom we got our food and were checking out Ethan gave us our change and our receipt and he said have a good day and we walked out.
I totally saw that he gave us his number but I acted cool but once we were outside I said Sidney and she said yeah and I said ...He gave us his number!!!... so we started jumping around forgetting that all of the front wall was glass and he could see us. So we were like lets leave but we laughed for MILES and after a few miles Sidney (because she wasn't driving texted him) and the rest is history( haha I absolutely hate that saying).
All in all our trip to St. George was AWESOME!

Preference 2011 ( Epic failness)
This picture right above is the most epic fail. Apparently I went to Preference when I was 8 years old. Yeah it doesn't say April 1st 2011 it says April 1st 2001, yeah that's an epic fail right there.
I went to Preference with my friend Scott. The way I asked him was I got a shirt and wrote Preference? in permanent marker and my name but all the other ones were in washable marker, and Sidney and I put girls he knew names on the shirt and also some boys haha but we also put some horrible girls names on there. Which I thought were amazing.For our date we ate at our friend Monica's house and we had a great meal and then we went to the Art Museum for the dance, which was packed and it was a lot of fun. Then we went to Sidney's house and put frosting on cookies and played Mafia before we took everyone home.
It was a great date and I had a LOT of fun and I'm glad I went.

Hike to the Y
So forever ago my friend Tyler asked me if I wanted to, with some of our friends, go hike the Y. I decided it would be fun because I kind of like hiking. Yeah I about died! It was a lot of fun though, but it was a really cold day so it was kind of perfect hiking weather.The next day though I was dead and I couldn't go to church. It was a really hard hike because it was all switch backs and it was ALL uphill and on the way down it was all DOWN hill so all of us basically ran the whole way down because it was easier.
All in all it was a great day and I'm glad I did it so I can check it off of my bucket list.
