You have to make time for FUN!

With Finals quickly approaching (last day of classes are tomorrow!) I have had to study for long periods of time nearly every day. Although I've been studying a lot, I've also made time for a lot of fun as well. Erica and I went to see the broadway show Wicked. The music, costumes and talent were amazing and we both had such a great time. I am grateful that Erica had that extra ticket so that I had the opportunity to go. Then last Saturday, Tre and I went to see the Lakers play against the Jazz in the 4th game of the playoffs. We had such a good time! Now, I just need to focus and get through the next nine days.

Brent took pictures of me studying in mockery

Studying makes me a little loopy, when I've been doing it for too long

Tre and I, before we went to the game

I really didn't care who won the game, but I just wanted to be opposite of Tre so I looked around to find this Jazz jerzee.

"There's Only Two Types of Guys Out There...

Ones that can handle me and ones that I scare." Some friends from UPC and I decided last minute to go see the Britney Spears Concert featuring the Pussycat Dolls. It was the best concert that I've been to (granted, I've only been to one other concert: *Nsync when I was 12), but nevertheless it was awesome. The theme of the show was also the title to her latest album "Circus" and there were some crazy circus acts there. I was blown away. It was definitely worth $40!!Before the show

After the show- we are Britneyed Out.

I get my own Business Cards! :)

I just wanted to take a minute to let everyone know that I applied for the Director of Crimson Nights on the UPC board at the University of Utah and even though there was some stiff competition- I got the position! I've put a lot of work into UPC in my two years of college so far and it is about time that work paid off. :) It's going to be a lot of work and might be pretty hectic at times, but it will be a good experience and it's a full-ride scholarship so that's a plus too.

This is the note i found on my mirror when I woke up the day of my interview/presentation. I have the best family!

233 Days Until. . .

These posters for the movie were just released and OH! so sad. I hated the book, because I hate Jacob Black. But I'm still excited for the movie. The poster of Bella makes me want to cry.

Here Ya Go, Gramma!

Last Weekend, A few friends and I went to Las Vegas to support our boyfriends who play on the University of Utah's basketball team in the Mountain West Conference Tournament. All three games that they played in were so intense, but also so much fun. They ended up winning the entire thing and got to cut down the nets. It was so much fun and I was so glad that I had the opportunity to go. Go Utes!

Heading Out. Tre and I were playing in the arcade and we played Deal or No Deal. We chose # 10 (Tre's Jersey Number) and it had 400 tickets- the highest amount!On our way to the Wyoming vs. Utah game

Elyse, Bre and I cheering on the guys at the game

Me and Miss CassieElyse and I at the beginning of the Championship Game hoping we'll leave #1Tre- on the Megatron before the game. (Elyse and I made it on here like six times for being to wild)

Go Luke!Die-Hard Ute Fan

This is my friend Eric he was originally rooting for BYU, but once they lost- I converted him to UofUismWhew! That was a close one

Coach B is so crazy


Yay!

Me and Tre!

MVP

Me- on my birthday- laying out by the pool is was like 80 degrees!

Elyse and I decided that for my birthday we would go to the Stratosphere and ride all the rides that are on top of the hotel (1400 feet in the air). It was so much fun!

The guys running the ride let us go twice for free :) I love free stuff. Elyse hated the rides. "Rachel, I never wanna see you again."

After the ride, we ordered room service ($12 for a cup of soup!) Then the delivery boy brought cake for my birthday!

Elyse is so crazy, but such a good singer! Haha

Our last day in Vegas- me at the fountain show at the Bellagio

My Baby's in Da News

Read about it at deseretnews.com They just talk about how great of a kid that Tre is, despite his many trials in life. It also talked about what a big part of his team's success that he's been and how great he is doing in college and in basketball. I'm so proud! My family and I have known all of these things about Tre for as long as we've known him- it's just nice to get recognition from everyone else!
