Summary of the past few months

Wow, it has been since February since I've last written and a lot as happened, so be ready for a huge post!

So my last post was about me finding out that I was going to meet Katy Perry. I went to that concert with my sister-in-law Beccie. It was a really fun concert. She was really cool! .
And then we got to meet her after the concert and she was really sweet and funny! That was a really fun experience

On may 7, which seems like so long ago, My family went to Disneyland with Mandi Wood and her family. It was a really fun trip. I rode my favorite ride (Soarin') a dozen times! And Mandi and Ryan also introduced me to a lot of rides I have never been on. I went on splash mountain for the first time and it has become one of my favorite rides!

At the end of May, my mom and I went to the Taylor Swift concert. It was an amazing concert, one of the best concerts I've ever been to. She was really good live, and she was really funny and entertaining. I was so glad I was able to find tickets to her sold out show, Thanks to ebay :)

A few weeks ago, I got really sick and felt like I got hit by a bus! I had the chills, aches, and a fever of 102 for a few days so I went to the doctor and sure enough I had the flu. And yes it was the Swine flu. But its just like the flu. Luckily I got over it within a week and just have a little touch of Bronchitis left over. It was nice to miss work for a week though!

Then my dear friend Mandi brought me back the coolest thing from Oregon! She found me a Pirate plaque (that is the same one that she has at home) that is a skull with swords and it looks really cool. The cool thing about it, is the swords come out and they are real swords!!!! (Anyone up for a sword fight?) So it goes perfect in my room with all of my other Pirates of the Carribbean stuff. I Love it so much! THanks Mandi!!! :)



Well thats all that happened in the past few months.
I'll be going to the American Idol concert in a few weeks so I'll post about that! I'll try to keep up on my posting!

And I Didn't Think It Could Get Any Better

So, as you all know (if you read my blog) my sister-in-law won tickets to the Katy Perry concert and we are going tomorrow. And I'm so excited. Well she was also entered in the grand prize to have a meet-and-greet with Katy Perry. Beccie is the luckiest person i know. Because guess who is going to the meet-in-greet? Yes, thats right, me and beccie!! I am so excited. I'm just waiting to be told that this has all been a joke or something because its all too unreal. I think I am the only one really excited though. But i don't care, i love it!!

Katy Perry concert HERE I COME!!!!

So as you know, I have been trying to get a hold of Katy Perry tickets for the past few days. Well my radio station finally started a contest that if you are caller number ten, you win tickets to the concert and you are qualified to have a meet-and-greet with Katy Perry. So i got so excited that i woke up at 7am just to listen to the radio before i had to go to work. They did the contest, but sadly i was caller number 4 so i didn't win.

Well after work today, I ran into Woods Cross High to get tickets for their upcoming play Beauty and the Beast. While I was getting the tickets, my bestest friend/sister-in-law Beccie called me. I wasn't able to talk so I told her i'd call her back. I called her back a few minutes later and she asked me if I had listened to the radio. I said I did, and knew that they did another contest, but i wasn't able to call. She asked me if i knew who won. I didn't have any idea. Then a thought came to me. And i screamed "BECCIE DID YOU WIN THE TICKETS?!?!?!" She just started laughing. She said that she did win the tickets. At first i didn't believe her. But she told me she was serious. So then i just started screaming! I am so excited!!!! And Im so thankful for beccie for helping me win these tickets. She knew how important it was for me to go, so she spent her time waiting and calling for the tickets. Im so happy she did that for me. Thanks beccie! I'm also so glad to be going to this concert with her. She is so fun to hang out with.

So for all of you nonbelievers out there, dreams really do come true!!! (Cheesy, i know, but for me, its really that important.)

Katy Perry Tickets

The past few weeks I've been hearing about a Katy Perry concert coming up soon. (she sings I Kissed a Girl, and Hot 'n cold) I finally decided to check it out. The concert was only $18, so of course I looked up tickets right away! I asked my best friend/sister-in-law if she would go with me. And she said yes. I got back on the computer to get tickets. I was so excited I was about to pee my pants. I love Katy perry! And so does everyone else apparantly... To my disappointment, the tickets were all sold out. From then on, to this day, I am trying everything I possibly can do to get a hold of Katy Perry tickets. I looked on a different website and people are selling tickets for $64! I have registered on three differnent radio stations websites for a chance to win. I sat at my computer for an hour filling out a survey on my radio stations website for a chance to win tickets. And I call my radio station at least 3 times a day asking if they are giving tickets away and i always get the same answer, "eventually", whatever that means. Well, today as i was listening to my FAVORITE radio station, 107.9 THE MIX(hows that for a little advertising?) a Katy Perry song came on. After the song, the DJ announced that they would be giving away tickets for the Katy Perry concert! He said he would give details in a minute. Well a minute came and went and he still didn't talk about the tickets. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and i called him up. Here's how the conversation went..
DJ: hi this is 107.9 the mix
ME: Are you going to be giving away Katy perry tickets tonight?!
DJ: No sorry.
......Yep thats all he said. I was mad! (i swear trying to get these tickets have turned me into an angry person)
So I decided to investigate further. I went on to 107.9's website and looked up Katy Perry. This is what i got.
"This weekend - it is a Katy Perry "Thinking of You" weekend. Listen for the cue to call, be the 10th caller and spin the wheel of prizes for either Katy Perry's new CD or tickets to the upcoming Katy Perry show at In The Venue on February 10th."
This is either a good thing or a bad thing. So they will be giving away tickets, but I also have a chance of winning her cd instead. GRR!! What a frustrating few weeks!
Ok.. now that i have that off my chest, maybe i can move on.
I AM going to win these tickets.
WISH ME LUCK!!!

DISNEYLAND!!!!

In 112 days i will be walking into the gates of the happiest place on earth... DISNEYLAND!! I am so excited! I'm going with my family and my bestest friend Mandi!
The problem is, is that its still so far away! I'm so excited I am really to the point of exploding with happiness. I feel like a nerd, but i've already started my packing list! We even made a paper chain to countdown the days till Disneyland. I'm hoping it will help the days go by faster! I'm so excited I get to go with my friend mandi. Its going to be a blast! Just thought i'd share with my happy news! I'm just so excited. You will probably see more posts from me about this trip especially when it gets closer. :)

An idea.

So when i saw this hair cut I thought it was really cute. Let me know what you think.

I need help!!!

So i have decided to cut my hair! Its been so long, and I have found that all I've been able to do is put my hair in a pony tail. So I need your suggestions on how i should get it cut!! I want a haircut that makes me look older (I'm 19 but I look 12!) but i don't want it to be too short. So please, please, please give me suggestions!!
Thank you!

My future husband... too bad he's married.

Yea I'm posting!! I'm going to see how long it takes for people notice because I'm sure people have given up on checking my blog! SORRY!! But I totally had to post about this because I keep thinking about it!
So the other day, I had the chance to go see Matt Nathanson (the love of my life!... i wish..) at the Greywhale music store in bountiful. He was doing a concert later that night so he stopped in at the Greywhale store and did a little free concert. It was amazing! There were only about 25 people there, so it was so much more fun because he talked to each of us individually. He even talked to me! I loved it. And his band wasn't there so it was all acoustic. In case you don't know Matt Natanson, he sings Car Crash, and Come On Get Higher. If you ever want a copy of the Cd, just ask! What I loved most about seeing him though, was that he was a very down-to-earth guy who didn't see himself as famous. And he has a lot of fun doing what he is doing. I had so much fun, and he signed my CD "Kaylene is the bomb!-Matt Nathanson". He was very funny, and a great entertainer. I had so much fun!
Probably a lot of you have no idea who he is and you probably don't think its all that amazing that I met him, but it seriously was the highlight of my day!
Here are some picture.
By the way... he is VERY attractive!

I'm Ariel!

You Are Ariel!

Headstrong and fiesty. You have a mind of your own that's full of romantic dreams about the world around you. Exploring exotic places is your ultimate dream, and although you can be a little naive you'll realize that there is something to be gained from your family's wisdom.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Thats so me isn't it? i love the ocean so why shouldn't that be me?! hehe that was fun!

Trainer for the day

Trainer for the day

So this past week, my family and I went on a vacation to california. We went to disneyland and california adventure then to sea world. Sea world was the best!!! I did the Trainer for the day program. And pretty much to sum it up, i got to swim with dolphins all day. It was awesome! First we went behind the scenes and looked at the labs where they take care of the animals when they get sick or get hurt. Then we went to a pool with some preganant dolphins in them where we got to see how they take care of the soon to be mothers. Then we went and got goggles and got underneath the water to see the dolphins under the water. It was so cool. the dolphins would come right up to my face! And i could hear their noise that they made underneath the water. It was great! Then we got to go on a dolphin tow ride. Which means we hung on to the dorsal fin of the dolphin and went for a ride!! Then after that, we all got to interact with the dolphins. By feeding it, rubbing its belly, and even tickling it! I had a wonderful experience! if i could, i would do it all over again. I hope you watch the slide show that i made of my pictures from my day at sea world!I had the greatest time and i want to go back so bad!!

David Cook/David Archuleta Guitar Hero Commerial!

Hahah this was so funny! I just had to put it on here. I even put it on my ipod. LOL! Enjoy!

David Archuleta Day!! (sorry this post is soooo long!)

So yesterday was amazing! As some of you may know, David Archuleta from American Idol came to Murray High School yesterday to visit his hometown. Well me and my friend decided to go. We got there at 3:00. And it was packed!!! this picture is showing less then half of the crowd! . Anyway, well me and my friend got pretty close to the stage And big Buddah from fox 13 news was there giving us the countdown till David Archuleta arrived. Well at 4:30 the parade with David started showing up. There was the governer, and the mayor then finally David Archuleta! He came in a white mustang that first looped around the football field then up to the stage. It was insane! I have never seen so many screaming girls in my life!! Everyone was freaking out that he was finally there. But you know... i kept my cool. :) So when he got on stage the mayor and the governer both presented him with honors. First they pronounced May 9th David Archuleta day in utah. Then they named a street after him!!! Then after all of that, David Archuleta sang three songs. He sang Imagine, Stand by Me and Angels. It was AMAZING!!!!!!!
There was a little clip from him singing. Sorry its so short but my camera died in the middle of it!!! But here is the video i took from my phone. You cant see him at all, but you can hear his BEAUTIFUL voice. And tons of girls screaming. Well after he got done singing, everyone started leaving and police escorted David away. Well me and my friend headed around back to see if we could possibly get close to him. We were on side stage, and he wasn't coming yet. Then i looked around and spotted his mustang that he came in. I was so excited! I ran over and stood by the mustang. I thought, well if he came in the mustang he's probable going to leave in the mustang right? Wrong. He headed toward the school. Oh well i thought. It turns out that he had a limo waiting for him. So me and my friend just sat by the mustang. Then the driver to the mustang came up and asked me if i'd like to drive it. I was like HECK Ya!! He said he was kidding and he couldn't let me do that. But then i asked him if i could have a ride in it at least while he drove it back around to the front of the school. And he said yes!! So i sat in the same seat of the mustang that David Archuleta sat in!! haha thats my claim to fame! It was actually really exciting! Here are some more pictures from my day

Prom Night

So yesterday me and my friend casey went to see the scary movie Prom Night. I just have to say, it was sooooooo-o good! I loved it! I love love love scary movies so this one was perfect for me! If you liked "When a stranger calls", i think you would like this one.

Shark Bait Ooh ah ha!

So as some of you may know, i'm in a marine biology class at school. And in our class we all have a shark egg. Well everyone's had either died or hatched and mine was the last egg left. Well finally yesterday, i got to my class and my teacher said that my egg was empty. And sure enough, there was my cute little sharky hiding behind a rock. I thought i'd name him bruce or jaws but then holly gave me a great idea about naming him "shark bait ooh ah ha" Like off of finding nemo. so here is a picture of my shark. Its not a very good picture though. Sorry! Maybe later i'll try to get a better picture of him!

So my parents said i cant keep him. But if any of you have a salt water tank, and would like a shark, you are welcome to have it.

Cute Puppy!!!!

So today my best friend Chelsea stopped by with her family, and her newest addition to her family! Sammy! her cute new puppy! i just had to show you guys this puppy because it was so cute! So here are some pictures.

Moulin Rouge

So i was totally bored yesterday and Holly being the nice friend she is, let me come over to hang out. Thats when she introduced me to the movie Moulin Rouge. I have never seen it before and I loved it! it was a little odd at first i'm not going to lie, but i really liked it! and now i am completely obsessed with the music. I cant stop listening to it!

"Would you dance with me?" ;)

Haha so i've just got to tell a really funny story that happened to me while at my brother's wedding last night. So at the end of the reception, when everyone was gone, a few of us were just hanging out taking pictures and talking. Well a really sweet love song came on and Beccie started dancing with her dad. It was really sweet. So all the couples started dancing. And i was like "i wish clint would dance with me!" (he is beccie's really hot brother!) And just then, Clint walked in the room and started heading straight for me!!! My heart was seriously about to jump out of my chest! Then he came up to me and stuck out his hand... (as if he was going to ask me to dance!-I nearly passed out!) and then he said "do you have the extra key to your brother's car?"..... ya... haha i totally turned red then i started stuttering like an idiot.
Haha! I'm such a nerd!
:P

I now have a sister-in-law!

Hey! So the wedding yesterday turned out great! It was a long day but it was really fun. I went over to Beccie's house to get my hair done and it looked really good if i say so myself. Then we all met at the temple after the ceremony to take some pictures. It was kinda cold but luckily it didn't snow. Not till later anyway. Then we went to the lion house for the luncheon and it was absolutely delicious! Then we stayed in salt lake for a few hours till the reception which was held in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. It was really great! Though standing in a line for 2 hours got very tiresome (and my cheeks hurt from smiling!) It was fun to see all the people that i haven't seen in so long! So it was a really fun night.

But when i woke up this morning, i realized that my brother really did get married (because it didn't phase me before haha) and i started crying! haha i felt ridiculous but i was already starting to miss him!! Anway.. i'm over it now. haha! :) I realized he married a great girl, one of my best friends, who is now my sister-in-law.. yea! So i'm very excited for them. I know they love each other very much. So its going to work out great i know it- I just cant wait when they have kids in a few years! ;) Haha!

Well anyway, i took a picture of my hair and wanted to show you all how pretty it was last night, so here it is....

And all of my hair was put up with Bobby pins. Here's a picture of all the bobby pins!!! I was shocked when i pulled all of them out. Which took about 30 minutes by the way.

Those were all in my hair! Can you beleive it?! So for the fun of it, i thought it would be fun if you guys guessed how many bobby pins there is! Haha just for fun! So leave a comment on how many you think there are. And just a hint... there is less than 100.

BYE!

P.S. Later, when i get some pictures from the wedding , i'll post some of them.
