You basically can figure it out...






Ended with water everywhere, Thanks Scott!

Sussical the Musical!

So tonight I went with a group of my friends, and Ryan, to go see our schools production of Sussical the Musical, and man was it funny!!!!! Ryan wouldn't let me "pay", which is funny seeing as full-time students get in for free, but he bought me a Pepsi and some Kitkats and we snuck them in and ate them inside, which if Trish EVER finds out, I think I would be dead. :)
Well, it being a school production, I knew basically all of the cast since most of them live either in the towers or are in my classes, so it was fun to watch people i knew dance like retards for a good hour or so. :) During the production, Horton (the Elephant we all know and love) was being played by my friend Thomas Mangum, had just had the clover the Whos lived on stolen from him by the "evil" Wickersham Brothers, who were played by Joshua Siegfried (leg Josh so you all know), Dylan Detlor and my good "little" buddy Bo Mortensen( who is basically Scott just shorter and with red hair, no lies same weird sounds and all). Well, the brothers took off throughout the theater and were just throwing it back and forth, and my group and I happened to be sitting "in their way" in the far right section of the seats. Josh comes running trying to catch the clover, and Ryan catches it, which i must say was an AMAZING catch! So what does Josh do? EASY! He sits on me until Ryan gives it back. (come to find out later after the show from Josh, him and Ryan had planned that little trick, and in fact, I have to go to ALL the shows so they can keep doing it since everyone was laughing so hard, meh, its free.) So he gives it back, and the show moves on, and it just gets funnier, and funnier, and then the most amazing thing happened, Simon, who played the Cat in The Hat, tripped! Not a little oops trip, I mean a WHOOPS fell off the stage into the orchestra pit trip! No worries, they had the net up and i think that was also planned, I have yet to get word about that. Anyways, shortly after the Cat-Trip, the first Act ended and intermission began, it was only a 15 minute one after all. So me, Ryan, Shon, Sarah, RJ, Skylar, Dayna, Marco and Jayde go outside to laugh and joke and so the 3 smokers in our group could get a little cancer in them. Me and Ryan decide its way to cold to be outside for very long, so we head in and of course the stupid Security guards, Jordan and Justin stop us. (i say stupid because we, meaning me and justin and jordan, pick on each other a lot.) Well they stop us, tell us that was a nice stunt we pulled, stealing the tickets for our seats, and passing out meth pills, huge joke, but the looks people around us gave were totally priceless! (College is so just High School extended i swear.)
Act II is getting ready to begin and were all sitting down to enjoy the show and Simon is up conducting the orchestra, wasting time basically. He was A Natural... ha ha, get it? A Natural??? okay, lame music joke. Moving on, Simon then disappears behind the stage, only to reappear behind the audience and he is running around trying to find a seat, and so he sits behind our row and is talking/singing to a cute baby, and the baby is just crying away, it was funny yet still kinda sad at the same time. Well, the second/last act went amazingly well for only being rehearsed for about a week or so, and no flaws, (except for the same grapevine-cross-over-box-dance steps we have dubbed the Delia-Dance), and it was just awesome to watch. I had so much fun hanging out with Ryan and watching Sussical! I'm actually glad I have to go every night it's playing, i think the more i see it, the better i can annoy the people in the musical by singing the songs!!! :)
After the show, we went out and talked with everyone in the performance, I found out about Ryan's little trick, and just talked with everyone! I have pictures, but sadly my computer doesn't have bluetooth so I can't put them on here seeing as their on my phone... Maybe tonight i can get good pics with my camera! :) But ya, anyways lol. We all met up at Denny's to celebrate, and while we were there, Dayna was totally wired on Mountain Dew, so she was talking really loud and the whole place is full of people who were either in Sussical, or who had friends in Sussical, so it was totally chill. Then before me and Ryan decide that 1AM is too late to be up if we were to play Racquetball at noonish on Saturday, today,( wow I'm still wide awake!!!), Dayna stands up, and bangs her spoon on her glass and says, "I want to make a toast! Not just any toast, but a toast to my weird friends!" we all just look at her, and she just starts naming people off and random inside jokes she has with all of us and then she gets to me and sarah, now sarah smokes still, i do not, (THANK GOODNESS!!!), so When Dana said, "This is Kat, she hasn't smoked in 11 days, and this is Sarah, she hasn't smoked in 11 minutes!" We ALL were dying of laughter! Now, I've forgotten how to breath, had things shoot out my nose, and even cried while laughing really hard, but NEVER, never until tonight, have i seen all my friends do the same thing i did at once. People had drinks coming out their noses, i was crying it hurt to breath, Ryan forgot how to breath, well, breath in at least, and just everything was a mess! Only after did Dayna's words kick in, and then she got a good talken to, by Ryan, because Dayna stands about a foot taller than me, and me yelling at her would just be even more funny. But ya, so my unexpected-date-turned-date, was fun. Especially since i got a goodnight kiss from Ryan. :) That made my night a thousand times better! Okay, so now that I have rambled on about my date/fun night, I think I'm going to go read and try and pass out before it gets too much later! NIGHT!
Always and Forever!
Me! :)

Another "Great" Date at EAC...

Yep, another date. This time, it involved a nice hospital trip, for my roommate! My date way this guy Ryan Housenger, he went to high school with my RA Tyra, so he's a pretty chill person. Well, about an hour before my date was suppose to have begun, Carol my roommate decided that she needed to go to the hospital, and me being who i am, i call ryan and told him what was going on, and he was all, ok, no problem, i'll come pick you guys up and we can have our date at the hospital while carol is getting checked out. Can we say weirdest date in a long time. came to find out, Ryan is an intern at the hospital, so i got a 'grand tour' of the cafe there. which, totally was a normal looking cafe ive seen, but whatever. Well, then we get gloves, and we blow them up. then ryan takes them and puts them in his locker in the locker rooms, i'm stuck waiting in the hall looking like a dork for like 10 mins. people i think thought i was a mental patient or something. then it got worse.... Abby found me... Now, back when i was stuck in that stupid place for the surgery, Abby was one of my nurses, and i hated that woman because she would make me laugh, and wake me from a dead sleep and say the same thing over and over in her rusty hispanic accent... "Get up. You need walk 20 minutes, now. Dont make me get ice water." ya, she was evil lady at 3am, trust me... *glare* well, Ryan sees Abby, Abby sees me, and i see a door leading outside, so i booked it! I hate that lady, and i know its not fair, she was just doing her job and all, but walking at 3 am? really??? anyways, well we ended up out by the front/er entrence, and carol txts me that shes ok to go home, just a bad sore throat. so i get in Ryans car, and drive it over as he is getting carol. We all pile into his tiny honda and go to walmart to get carols meds. No worries, we have a half hour to spare, so of course us being retarded college students, we decide to have fun... in walmart.. go fig right? well, we ended up in the Twilight section of walmart, and you family members know i loved that series a lot, and even was a bit happy with the movie. well, i say a bracelt that just made me laugh so hard! it said:" I like my men sparkling." first though that came to my head, no joke, was: "Yes, because i want to be blinded by noon." Ryan didnt get it, carol got it, she was dying on the floor, i was dying on the racks, and ryan was just confused as ever. eventually we got carols meds and we all left, and ryan walked me and carol to our door and kissed carol on the forhead and told her to go lay down and get better, that walmart needed its Jew back.. long inside joke, not enough time to explain it. Well, then me and Ryan go and sit on the smoker bench, no he doesnt smoke its just a bench people, and we start talking. and its really windy out mind you, so ya, we were huddled together on that bench, and he totally asked me out on another date, but this time, he gets to bring one of his roommates to the hospital. it made me laugh so hard. so yes, kat had fun tonight, even if i did see the devil reincarnated named Abby... it was still fun! :) Saturday is my next date, more info as it comes. :)

Really? YOUR complaining???

Since basically EVERYONE seems to be fighting about whos watching whos kids, even though i dont get why since i never had a choice, but whatever im posting this. Just wanna say GROW UP SIBLINGS!!!! I mean hey, from the age of 9 on, i was "the babysitter", remember? and i rarely got paid, it annoyed me, but hey, i got over it because FAMILY DOESNT NEED TO PAY FAMILY! Its a service, so you siblings, grow up. At least when i am "asked" by kirsha to watch the kids, i do it because it means im bonding with them, how else do you guys think i got cam to sit and actually let people read to him, its because everyday after school, I had to watch him, remember? so stop with the whole "im so done with this sibling" business and grow up. "you dont have to like your family, but you HAVE TO love them" If you are totally gonna be all high school about it, then go back to it. im done hearing you all complain that you "didnt get paid" or whatever. think back, how many times did i watch your kids for you? how many times did you actually pay me? Yes, Marie and RIchard would sometimes pay me, but mostly i told them no, it was fine, and know what, i started to enjoy doing to for free. I shouldnt have to be paid for spending time with my nieces and nephews, and neither should you. Tiff pays when she can, i dont argue with her or marie about it because i know they will pay me one way or another, weather its in cash, food, or just letting me hang out with them. If your gonna cry and complain about having to watch kids besides your own, and this goes for everyone, then stop being a parent and give your kids away. its that simple. if you dont wanna be a parent, or an aunt/uncle, then leave everything you have, and go away. im tired of all the fighting about watching your family. get over it, none of you gave me much of a choice, and if i had one, i still mostly choose to watch them because i wanted to be close to them, because i love them. so next time you decide your family isnt worth your time, remember who you are, and what religion you are, because your stuck with us forever. there, i said my peace.

New Poem


So I decided that I would post my new poem on here so you all can show it to mom. My printer is being dumb and wont print, but if someone would print it out to give to her, i would really appreciate it.

The Man

Darkness falls, the light hides.

Truth has no past, my future blind.

Happiness shattered, hatred embarks.

Nothing left to see in a land so dark.

A man appears, his eyes hold the light.

He shows no fear over the night.

He raises his voice, the mountains all bow.

He shows his status, a king somehow.

He walks and life begins, the darkness has no friend.

He opens his arms and holds me near.

He my King, my Master, my Savior so dear.

All time stops as I follow him there.

I enter heaven, the crowds all cheer.

‘What happened to me’ I ask him real soft.

‘I changed your heart, no longer are you lost.'

The past now blind, a future I see.

No longer can the darkness have a hold over me.


Good date gone Bad!

So, as i mentioned before, My good friend Ryan got the movie Titan A.E. and we decided to do a date thing and watch it. Well, apparently most of my weird/amazing friends wanted to watch the movie with us, but at our friend Sarah's apartment. The only reason, she has a big screen and surround sound. So we decided what the heck, sure. So we drive over with my roommate Carol and friend Keisha. We park everything seems normal, but it wasn't, like most days. Well, We popped the movie in the DVD player, Sarah went out back and started a bon fire (now you understand why i love her apartment), and then Josh, Carol, Shon, Keisha, Vanessa, Tyra, Tyler, and Joe went back and forth from the movie to the fire. We finished watching the movie, which just gets funnier and funnier every time I watch it, and we go out back. Of course, though I have quit, most of my friends have not, so it was really hard to be happy by the fire with all the cigarette smoke. (just as a side note, varnished chairs smell worse then melting plastic in a fire...) So Sarah, Shon, Josh, Carol, and Keisha light up, so i moved away from them. Well then we all just started to talk about all the inside jokes we have together, and since their my friends, I'm sure you all can guess they're all pretty much idiots not ready to grow up. 
Eventually, Sarah starts to get txt messages from some guy, so she goes and locks herself in her room. This is a typical Sarah moment, so we think nothing of it, Ryan of course is confused, so he starts to question about it. Shon then figures out that drama was about to go down, so he decided to walk back to the dorms, which is just down the street, about half an hour, maybe 45 mins of a walk. We're used to him doing that, its how he cools off when he's mad. Well, Sarah gets extremely mad that we let Shon walk home, so she doesn't want to admit she's mad, but she's slamming doors, cursing a lot, and she just was all grrness. Eventually, we all decide to leave, I was to go back with Carol and Josh, hoping to calm him down before he did something else to open his leg wound up. Ryan understood, and said he would go back with Tyra and Tyler, so he was totally a trooper through out all of this. We get about 10 yards away from the dorms when we see Shon, so we pull over and pick him up then go park and we talk and calm Josh down. We think everything is okay, then of course Sarah txts all of us yelling at us that we didn't do anything, we didn't clean her house, etc. Basically she wanted to just get mad and found dumb reasons to be mad. Well, we all get mad, I find Ryan, apologize for Sarah's outbursts and anything she said. The sweetheart that Ryan is, totally understood and even offered to help cool her down before we all went to bed, it was nearly midnight by this time. By 2:30 a.m. we had gotten Sarah to be calm, Josh to be calm, SHon not want to kill anything or even smoke for a while, and just everything cooled down. So me and Carol came up to our room and passed out.
At 5:30 this morning, Shon called me and told me to wake Carol and come downstairs. So I do, both of us are half awake when we meet Shon downstairs. Apparently, Music Tour is this week, so Shon, Tyler, Josh and many other friends were going to be gone till tomorrow. So of course they had to wake us up to say goodbye. After we said our partings, i went back to bed, only to be woken up at 9 by Josh calling me. The retard that is known as Joshua Sigfreid, busted open his leg, AGAIN! So he was in the hospital getting ready to fly to PHX for another surgery. No worries at this point, we are used to that. But then he does something I thought this boy would never do. He told me where his keys to his beautiful Toyota Thundra Extended Cab and Bed 4 door was in his room. O.O Total shock, this boy wont let even his sister drive that truck, but the ex girlfriend gets to, I'm shocked! Then again, it's only until tomorrow when Shon gets back from tour, then he is driving it to Josh's house in Lakeside and having his dad bring him back here. But the fact that I get to drive a truck, a BIG truck, is pretty scary! That and i took my stupid dance midterm... I'm not really signed up for that class, but Tyra makes me go with her so she can have a mannequin to show things to the lil girls in the class. My week has been stress.. I'm ready for a nice long nap... but alas, dinner is in like 20 mins... so After dinner, I'm passing out. 
Thats all I have for now... Wow, I wrote a lot. Hm. Okay, more info as it comes.
Always and Forever,
-Me

I Give in...

Okay, so I have finally broke down and got a blog spot that is not Facebook..... 

So, to update the world, mostly Tiffany, Amber, and Laurissa since they will read it the most. I'm happy here in Thatcher, Az. School is going well, I've had 2 midterms so far this week, and I plan to end my week with my Psychology Midterm. Math midterm was today, along with my Lost Tribes Buried Cities Midterm. I hope for the best, but me being so sick lately, I have my doubts about getting good grades.
  Choir is going well, I still strongly dislike my teacher and my section leader, but thats life. We have so far, 4 songs that just Women's Choral will be singing: The Voice, Let Us Sing Jubilate Deo, I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray, and The Bells. We will also be singing the following either with all choirs or just Mens Chorus: May The Lord Bless You And Keep You, America Finale, and then Octa-part Harmony. My concert will be March 24th and 25th at 7:30 p.m, and then again on March 28th at 2 p.m.
  My drama class has been rather uneventful, and I think it is a rather easy class, so I am not worried about my midterm on Thursday.
Friday begins my Spring Break! My last class begins at 1 p.m and I will be out by, I hope at least, 2:30 p.m and then Scott is bringing me home. My best friend and my Missionary is also coming home this Friday! So I'm very excited for that. His Home Coming is Sunday March 8th at 1 p.m so needless to say I will be there. As far as my plans go for Spring Break,  I promised Hayden I would play a whole day with him, so I'm on Hayden and Bailey duty, of course I wont get a choice in watching Camron and Taylor, I hope to go to Tiffany's house because I want to see the puppy! I miss all the kids, and can't wait to be home so I can wish I was back in Thatcher. :) That's life.
That's all I have time to write, I have to go to dinner and then I'm off on a date with my good friend (and nothing more) Ryan Mangum. So I guess I will fill you all in about that later.
Always and Forever,
Me
