I had almost forgotten how glorious high speed internet truly was, but now that I have it here in the comfort of my own home I remember how glorious it is!
So, I was on Facebook and saw a link to a YouTube video that I watched and almost died of laughter. Here is a link so you can all die laughing too!

Imagine taking a Josh Groban song and putting clips from the most recent Pride and Prejudice movie...yeah, you will be laughing too!
But yeah, life is grand. Work....and work.....and work....thats's about all I do these days. I found out another of my good friends is engaged. They are dropping like flies all around me! I swear everyone is getting married...and in many ways I am glad that I am not.

Yep, it's summertime
I figured since I haven't updated since I chopped my hair off and haven't yet posted a picture (sorry) I thought I'd just write a quick note letting you know that I am still alive and well.
I went to a bonfire last night which was fun. I saw one of my friends that is getting married. I hadn't seen him since before my mission. That was a lot of fun. His was the 5th wedding invitation I have received in the last 3 or so weeks. Yeah, everyone I know is getting married, apparently. Kind of crazy thought. I never Thought I would be one of the last ones of my friends to get married...I also never really planned on going on a mission, and that kind of took up some time. But all in all, life is good and I am really happy for all my friends that are getting married.

"Celebrating 20 years of non destructive testing"
Okay, so I am bored at work and I am pretty much just waiting to go home like everyone else. There are hardly any lights on and hardly anyone here, but I am staying until 4:30 just in case someone needs something shipped out ASAP. So, 7 minutes to go and here I am blogging since I haven't blogged in forever.
Oh yeah, I was on the phone with one of our vendors and they are playing some kind of cheesy music and I then I hear what I thought was a commercial, but no, the voice said "Celebrating 20 years of non destructive testing" and I thought to myself 'wow...that's an accomplishment right there' and then laughed. Its never dull here at work...except for right now when everyone is gone....
I chopped my hair off yesterday. I have never had my hair this short before. I like it. Totally shocked EVERYONE I worked with, since I didn't tell anyone I was cutting it off, I just went and did it. I love the shock factor when people find out something they weren't expecting. I will be putting a picture of my new haircut up soon since I don't have a camera right now to do it.
I got registered for classes for the fall. I am just taking 2 right now. Spanish and History. I am a little excited. Not only will they take care of some generals, they are two subjects I am actually interested in. I think it will be a good semester for me. It'll probably be hard, but good. And, now I get to look for an apartment up that way too! YAY!! I'm excited to be out on my own again. I miss it.
Any way, have a great weekend and HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

Happy Earth Day!!
Its been a while since I updated. My life is quite boring, so I don't feel the necesity to update all the time, sorry. Plus, dial internet is no bueno. Fortunatly we will be going high speed this Thursday, thank goodness, and I will be able to zoom accross the internet at the speed of sound...or something like that!
Well, my BFF Jen is going on choir tour, and then to Ukraine for 6 weeks and I'm kinda sad...because the summer is like the only time I get to hang out with her. Kinda sad...*tear*, but it's all good because I'm going to make new friends this summer!!! YAY!!
I watched the movie One Night With the King and was suprised that I liked it. Its the story of Esther and quite acurate to the Bible's telling of it. I was rather impressed. Its definatly a chick flicky cheesy one that I know B would watch and make fun of the whole time because he secretly liked it, but would NEVER tell anyone that ;)...I love ya B, and you know it.
They just came out with a new picture of Pres. Thomas S. Monson that I really like. Its way cool and you can check it out at lds.org, or deseretbook.com, I think. Pretty sure they'd have it, but its a great picture and I always like to have a picture of the current prophet hanging in my room and I was sad when Pres. Hinckley died because I didn't have one of Pres. Monson, but now I do.
Still working on that whole social life thing...kinda tricky sometimes...but it will come around eventually...I know it!

Really boring update...sorry!
Well, its been quite a while since I last posted. Sorry about that. I hate dial up internet and so I get too frusterated to post sometimes.
I went shopping with my sister tonight which was soo much fun. The two of us together is just a hilarious combination. I forgot how great it was to shop with her. I got a bunch of cute new clothes so that I will no longer be the "t-shirt and jeans" girl. Not that I didn't like being that girl, I just like variety now...pictures to come soon...hopefully.
I got into UVU for the fall semester yesterday which will be great. I have decided to move up to the Provo/Orem area in the fall so that I can go to night school and work during the day...we're going to have one super busy Suzy on our hands, but that's okay...it's going to be a good thing!
Work is going well...I really don't mind my job, and I have every evening available to do whatever I want!! Plus, I have weekends off so I can go visit people...I think I posted that in an earlier post...oh well!
But yeah, that's the big update for me...its kind of boring blogging when you are single and have no social life....gosh I don't have any dates to post about, or even any cute guys I hang out with because I don't hang out with anyone currently! This will change...eventually!

J-January or July? July, unless its in North Carolina, then I'd have to go for January...more likely chance of getting good 70 degree weather
K-Kids? Nope, not yet
L-Life isn't complete without? Family, they are always there when you need them
M-Marriage date? March 4, 2009...maybe
N-Number of brothers and sister? 6 brothers, 1 sisters

P-Phobia or fears? Heights, especially over large bodies of water (another phobia)
Q-Quote? "Its like my daddy told me when I thought I'd never get that job in a bar...Honey, your odds go up when you file an application" ($5 to anyone who can tell me where that ones from)
R-Reason to smile? I'm not stuck having to be within sight and sound of someone 24/7
S-Season of choice? Spring or fall...if in NoCo, fall all the way...I love the trees there
T-Tag 3 people: Jen, Ashley, and Becky
U-Unknown facts about me? I can count of one hand the number of times I have been asked out on a date...sad, I know...
V-Vegetable? Corn., it's the family vegetable
W-Worst habit? I don't confront people very well, or very often
X-X-ray or ultrasound? I don't know...

New Job and Girl Scout Cookies
Tomorrow I will officially be hired by Klune Precision Casting. It will be a good day, I feel it. I am very excited about it. The guy I report to came by today and said that his boss had given the okay to hire me and that they were working out all the details to keep me. Huge sigh of relief. They have mentioned that they wanted to hire me and that they could probably pay me pretty well, but I hadn't gotten the official word on it until today, and I am so grateful to have gotten the word on it too.
There is a guy that works in the same office as me named Perry and he bought about 6 cases of girl scout cookies to sell to any of us that wanted to buy them, however at $4 a box he isn't selling as many as he wanted to, so since they are in the office I am in, he thinks that we all in that office should sell them for him. Its kinda funny, because we really don't do it, but if any of you want girl scout cookies for $4 a box, just let me know!!!

Girly Post!
I've been on this total Gilmore Girls kick lately and have watched probably half of the sixth season and am a little excited to watch the seventh as I didn't get to watch it when it aired as I was on a mission. But, every time I watch it, I feel like talking really really fast about crazy things and make them sound like they are supposed to make sense.
I think I might have a job. I'm hoping. Please pray for me as well. I got a temp job through SOS and they have mentioned that they would like to hire me on if I was looking for a full time job. Not bad either, they'd start me off pretty well pay wise, and it's Mon-Fri 8-5...I really can't complain. Any way, I am really hoping and praying that I get it.
Oh, I stole this idea from Nat's post:

Oh, I stole this idea from Nat's post:
You Are...Elizabeth Bennet!
You are Elizabeth Bennet of Pride & Prejudice! You are intelligent, witty, and tremendously attractive. You have a good head on your shoulders, and oftentimes find yourself the lone beacon of reason in a sea of ridiculousness. You take great pleasure in many things. You are proficient in nearly all of them, though you will never own it. Lest you seem too perfect, you have a tendency toward prejudgement that serves you very ill indeed.
All possible results: Elinor Dashwood, Marianne Dashwood, Elizabeth Bennet, Fanny Price, Emma Woodhouse, Catherine Morland, Anne Elliot
