Fail

This blog wasn't really a success was it? 

Well here are some videos I found today while reminiscing and missing my best friend.

They're from the vegas trip. 

Enjoy. :)

Isn't she a funny gal?

I think so too.

Miss you Gustov!

adios.

First off.

It's quite obvious that this blog has taken a turn for the worse. 

Leann has her own blog that takes first priority & we kind of realized this after it was too late. 

All I have to do is hop on over there to know what's going on..

Second.

I'm not a blogger. Not my forte, not my thing, just not good at it.

I'd rather read everyone else's.

So.. 

The Result

There will be a post here and there but I'm not dedicated enough to this electronic way of communication when I can just call her on the phone or huddle up with her and Vanessa via Google+.

I'll still be putting pictures up that relate to our friendship & funny stories etc. 

So I won't go off about my life.. Too much.

Just a little something to remind her of home while she's off parading around Portland.

Just so she doesn't forget. :)

I am pretty sure this was the last home basketball game.

That's why everyone was taking so many pictures.

I know we don't really like to go crazy & reminisce about high school Leann.. 

But this is a good picture. :)

& this really doesn't seem that long ago. 

But sadly,

summer is almost over and you are already totally at college.

Time flies..

Let's fly back for a second.

You were in the presidency of Orchesis, the dance team.

With major skills beyond my comprehension.

I did hear countless times from everyone that whenever Orchesis would dance all eyes were on you. 

With an aptitude for cooking.

& me on the other hand..

Just a sad inexperienced cheerleader trying to pull a lib.

I did pull off a backhand spring at tryouts.. That was probably the last time I accomplished anything..

& my skills in the kitchen extended to ramen noodles and oatmeal.

But put the two together!

Unstoppable.

Together we created cooking masterpieces.(chocolate covered bacon)

& danced around my kitchen for hours. 

Remember at Christmas time?

The bells? 

Oh man... haha.

The Best.

Crap.

I have to go to work.

I hate that.

Adios. :)

My Best Friend Leann

There she is..

That beauty bombshell.

My best friend. :)

Let me tell you a little about her..

she's a freaking great dancer!

• She's funny
• She's gorgeous
• She cannot tan for more than 10 seconds.. 
• Running is even worse..
• She's got some style
• Like fifty pairs of boots
• She never went two weeks without having a boyfriend until now
• She has a job!
• She is responsible
• She's determined (she finished all her packets & graduated!)
• She can be a little bit negative at times.. (it's the truth. I still love you)
• She always looks out for me
• She makes me laugh ALWAYS

& now us together..

• We visit Barnes n Noble regularly (BTW we gotta head over there soon.. It's long overdue)
• We adventure everywhere we go
• One time we bought energy drinks from the Dollar Store and about three hours later we feared that our faces had been shaved off..
• We have a way of marking out territory..
• We have been on many road trips & our friendship prevails! (that seriously says something)
• Our one ACTUAL fight, lasted one night and maybe hard feelings for like a day after but we got over it & now we laugh at that Saint whore hey trip.. Well we're not quite to laughing, but we shake our heads when it's mentioned..
• We barely agree on anything..
• We are great singers together..We harmonize & everything.
• We both have blue eyes..
• & we both have split personalities..(gustov & rico)
• We work out together
• We push each other to be better
• We support each other

Yeah.. We love each other and stuff...

Dear Leann,

Even though at times you drive me off the edge of insanity.. You are my best friend. :) You have always been there for me & I'm soo freaking glad that we met that warm September night. So far our tendons have not been cut. Through the arguments, the boyfriends, the family crap, & friend drama.. We have made it through & truly are best bosom buddies. & I know that, 

Aint no mountain high! Aint no valley low! Aint no river.. 

WIDE ENOUGH BABY!!

You really can call me no matter what.

I'll miss you like those stalkers miss your blog..

plus some.

Love, Val your bestest pal :)

p.s. we still have three weeks till you leave. Which includes 

your birthday!!!

So we're gonna have some fuuuuun! 

Fun, fun, fun

Hello all.

It is me, Rico.

& my friend Gustov.

Here is a quick video we thought you'd enjoy. 

 This week so far we have had a very eventful couple of days.

So, you see.. Yesterday, NO SCHOOL! Happy Memorial Day. We thank all those who have served and are serving our countries. Good luck to Brady Shay who is joining the Army. We wish him luck. 

After Leann's eventful day working the Memorial Day Sale at Park's Sportsman, we met up at Vanessa Clavijo's house and watched The Bachelorette. That show never ceases to amaze me. So many attractive man forcing themselves to love a woman that may not even be right for them. ridiculous.

Some show about a fat girl becoming skinny came on after. and wow, it was more inspiring than we thought. definitely better than the biggest loser. 

we called it a night because Gustov had to teach dance auditions at 7 this morning.

today,

we made an appearance at school,

then bolted out the door to go dress shopping for Graduation.

holy hannah.

I love my dress 

(this is Gustov)

i'll put pictures up after commencement commences.

only $28

SCORE

then we went hot tubbing with Vanessa, Rachel and Steven.

the pool was right next to it, but holy canoli. it was freezing.

didn't stop us from jumping in a few times.

good times.

right now this is Gustov. 

I'm just waiting for Rico to get off the phone so i have something to do.

....

i'm super bored.

i already ate a whole bag of popcorn,

tweeted TWICE

facebooked for a while

ate an orange dreamsicle which i had to get all the way from downstairs.

and now,

i really don't know what else to do.

goodness.

well,

i guess i'll post some super old pictures from our Spring Break 2010 trip to Las Vegas

 Gustov

Inta Juice somewhere in southern Utah

 chillin at the pool

 in front of the Bellagio waiting for the fountains

 we got pretty burnt. check the tan lines.

waiting for the M&M 3D movie

i'm out of words, and patience.

i'm getting another dreamsicle and walking home.

wait...

just kidding.

it's dark outside.

and that hill is super steep.

FML.

Over and out,

the abandoned Gustov

My adventures without Leann this weekend...

Dear Gustov,

The Soccer Game.
I drove up with Jenni, Becca, Ciera and Katherine. We listened to Jack Johnson, Hilary Duff, and sang our hearts out to Shania Twain. Okay, mostly Jenni & I just went crazy.. You know how well I sing in the car..

Unlike my car singing, the boys played so well. I wish I had gone to all of their other games. You should have been there.. At least you had your twitter and me to help update you. :)

Here are some pictures nonetheless.

 Our Bruin Crazies were of course there, decked out and painted.

I know exactly what you're thinking right now & this time I'll have to agree with you.

Such a goon..

A very cute one though. ;)

The team

 After the game 

. It was crazy intense & well worth the cold.

Afterwards we drove home and made a pit stop at Beto's and Taco Bell to refuel our bodies.

Next Adventure

For our final in weight training, we got to go on a bike ride. :)

So Rebecca Jane & Jenni Kae & I rode down to the lake with our class & of course ended up at the back because Jenni had two strings in her eye somehow. I ended up pulling them out since she obviously couldn't see them.. All of our eyes were practically bloodshot by the end of this because of the monstrous trucks speeding past causing tornado whirlwinds & impairing our vision.

Dang truck drivers..

Becky & I and my new shirt! 

Do you like??

Becca & Jenni after extricating the strings from Jenni's eye.

There was a really funny picture I took before this but I won't embarrass them.

Oh yeah..

I also reenacted one of our St George experiences.. Remember by that random building?? 

So since we were last we had to have Devry's older brother bike with us since we couldn't be left alone without some sort of protection or something.. So of course Jenni starts competing and sooner or later Becky and I fall back singing, enjoying life and end walking our bikes up the hill panting.. 

& Then

Rachel's cabin!! So Rachel, Ciera & I drove up to Rachel's cabin and fourwheeled and Zip lined and campfired it up. Yes, I drove the fourwheeler, and no, i didn't crash it. Rachel & I splashed through the mud until we couldn't see our shoes anymore practically.. I may have exaggerated that. But the point is, we don't mess around. It was lots of fun except for the dirt I can still feel in my hair somehow and the horrible stomach ache the first night. But I missed you dearly. Next time you have to come. 

& then comes the lip dub. Which you were with me! So we'll need to be blogging about that together. Maybe later today? Come over? Yeah? Vanessa is making Focaccia bread! Don't wanna miss that. :)

After the lip dub I picked up the one and only Seth Loveland. :) We went to Nielsen's Grove in the rain & then made a stop at Yogurtland! Where every college student from BYU believes they can laugh as loud as they please and as annoyingly as possible. We had to retreat quickly before Seth lost control. Haha. But not before we ran into Danny & Bonnie & her little sister Judy. That was exciting. :)

Anyways,

Love youuuu!
come over.

Rico

signing out.

P.s. Remember our first sleepover together??

My lost brain cells sure do..

well.. we tried.

Adventure #105

Running....

well, trying anyway.

it started out promising. 

downhill.

then we did our yoga in the grass field at the junior high

while a 7 year old creep in a green shirt watched our every move.

sketchster.

we'd like to say the reason we failed so epically on the way home was due to the fact that we had consumed a ridiculous amount of Orville Redenbachers, Chips Ahoy, and Marshmallow Matey's before hand

but in reality,

we're about as in shape as homer simpson.

awesome.

here's the gist of our conversations during that.... mile and a half.

Gustov:

"this isn't too bad."

Rico

"i know, for real. i'm barely even tired."

Gustov

"you might wanna slow down if you want it to stay that way"

Rico

"i'm pretty much walking"

Gustov

"i know."

a mile and a hill later....

Gustov

"stop running!!! holy crap!"

Rico

"oh my gosh you're such a baby! let's go."

Gustov

"i've never been so miserable in my entire life."

Rico

"really? not even when {anonymous} cheated on you?"

Gustov

"shut up! that doesn't even compare. well.. it kind of does."

Rico

"i'm pretty sure there's a reason they call it running. you're supposed to RUN."

Gustov

"do you have any friends over here with pools?"

Rico

"haha... do i have any friends over here... that's why i hang out with you"

Gustov

"i hate you."

we rewarded ourselves with otter pops.

sort of counteracts the whole... "running" thing.

ah well.

it was worth it.

sort of.

now we're going to Yoga it up at Gustov's house to earn a twinkie.

yeah,

we know.

we're cool.

yet another thing we don't agree on.
running.

G&R

The Beginning

hello there lovelies

it is currently 11:04 in Happy Valley

and Gustov is at Rico's house eating dehydrated apples.

typical tuesday

we just finished our 3rd ab workout in under an hour.

we threw in a couple butt exercises in between.

just to spice it up a bit.

ha.

it's late.

her grandparents are asleep in the next room...

which killed our plans of a crazy dance party.

FML.
