Baloo's little/big brother! I hope...

As Baloo gets fatter and fatter, I'm beginning to realize that he really sucks at exercise! I took him for a walk down the block to the field behind the temple (which is like 2 blocks) and he was so tired I thought he was going to pass out right on the street. Sooooo....my hopes for a dog to play with and run with are pretty shot for now. I can't even get Baloo to walk down the street without having to carry his fat body all the way back because he's wheezing so hard! He's so funny. But I've already started looking for little brother for Baloo that we can get when we move to the mainland next year!
So what I really really really want....is a white german shepherd!



That dog can probably run 5 times as long and fast as I ever could! Since Seth picked out Baloo, I definitely get the next pick! The puppies are so cute too!









So he will actually be Baloo's little BIG brother. I know it won't be for over a year....but I can wish, right? :)

So it's been a while...

Alright, alright, I know it's been awhile since I have posted. Life is just so busy!! Well actually Seth has nothing to do that lucky duck! He graduates this June and we are really looking forward to that. I, however, have a million and three things to do! Along with organic chemistry, microbiology and physics homework and tests, there just isn't much extra time. And I just spend my extra time doing research for my biology senior project. I'd tell you all what I'm doing for my project, but it's complicated and I don't feel like boring everyone to death! So this is what we've been up to for the last month and a half or so...

We had the chance to fly out on superbowl weekend to Las Vegas with our friends Scott and Allison to go see Jerry Seinfeld LIVE!! Let me tell you it was amazing! He was hilarious! Seth and I just LOVE Seinfeld and this was really cool for us to go see. It was totally worth the long plane rides. I forgot to bring my glasses (how stupid!) so I really couldn't see him (I'm so blind!)! And they wouldn't let us bring in cameras. Lame. But we got a picture with the poster! haha.


For Valentine's day Seth and I went up to our usual sandwich place in Haleiwa (Stortos) and ate our incredibly delicious sandwiches on the beach and watched the gigantic swells that were coming in. Then we randomly decided to be tourists and go down to the Dole Plantation (I've actually never been there in the million times I've been to Hawai'i). We got their yummy pineapple ice cream, and ate it while we snuck into the giant maze and got lost. Then we decided to be even cooler tourists (yeah right!) and buy bright yellow dole shirts!! I totally forgot my camera that day, so I don't have any pictures. Bummer. But we looked hilarious. We got on the train that takes you out into the pineapple fields and we learned about pineapple and listened to ghetto songs called "Pineapple Princess!" It was great. We finished the day by going to see "Definitely, Maybe" and then grabbing dinner on the way home. It was such a fun day! It's nice to have such a fun and sweet valentine.


Other than that, we've just been hanging out with friends and playing rock band with Nate and Camille! haha. Seth is planning to take the GRE this summer and applying for graduate school this fall. I bumped up my graduation to next June and am applying to Veterinary school next fall. Other than that, we look forward to going to the Phillipines this summer for a BYUH research project, and leave for 2 months on June 23rd. I'm hoping for some great shopping! :) We're moving to Hau'ula this June to a new place because our crazy landlord forgot to ask us if we wanted to renew our contract and sold it to some other lady. We were pretty upset at first, but now we're happy to get away from this crazy bug house! We are also scheduled to go on our second skydiving trip for Seth's 24th birthday this May. We're trying to get all of our friends to come too! So anyway, life is great! And Fatty is doing well too. :)
