And frankly I can’t get enough! It always used to bother me when girls posted things about Zumba this and Zumba that yatta yatta and I never thought I would be posting about it yet here I am promoting! And confession I love it, I go to Zumba more than my own gym I actually have the motivation after night school to go! Don’t get me wrong though I am no dancer (I know shocking) I know my place it’s at the very back but towards the middle so I can still follow the instructor, but I avoid the mirror at all costs, caught a glimpse of myself once and yikes am I tall and awkward. I wouldn’t say “ Zumba has changed my life!” but I have had lots of fun and maybe just maybe I have become slightly more coordinated….maybe. If you get the chance try it, it will rock your world!
* I desperately want these pants and shoes.What would I do with them you ask??? Hhmmm I would salsa better, sway my hips more intensely, I could kick higher and run faster … most likely….probably… pretty much the possibilities are endless!

and also:

Happy Friday!

Have you ever heard of...

Urban dictionary.com its this redic./ awesome site with the definition of your name I must say mine is pretty true ...enjoy :)
A person who is loving and caring. Loyal to everyone important in her life and is easy to forgive, but won't let someone walk all over her. She steals the heart of everyone she dates, because she is real. Very few girls often like this person, because they feel threatened or intimidated by her. She is also someone who people seem to obsess about without ever realizing it.
Simply put, Amys are a gift to the world. notorious for their astonishing good looks and captivating, irresistible charm, amys have been the center of many (if not most) a mans fantasies. Amys will haunt your dreams. The unfounded sexiness paired with the fiery, passionate personality is something no other living being could accurately replicate. Like Chinese on rice, males flock to amys, as they possess an other-worldly feminine power. Amys turned Lindsay Lohan lesbian, and Amy's possess the power to turn any homosexual male straight. A unique yet defining characteristic of Amys is their effortlessly superior sandwich-making abilities. if they cannot create delectable sandwiches, then, they are fakes. A commonly used phrase among Amys - "You can imitate, but you can't replicate".

the name derives from the French word "Ami" meaning friend, and the French word "Amee" meaning beloved. She is uncommenly loyal, and once friends with you will always be there for you, she has fierce morals, despises betrayal and rumours, and talking about people behind there backs. She is not usually liked by many, as many are threatened or intimadated by her goodwill, her intelligence and her uncommen good looks, however the ones that do like her will remain her very best of friends the whole way through. She forgives easily but never allows herself to be walked over. She is matura for her age and has a very wise way of thinking of things, she loves to laugh and will never be the last to have a joke. Sometimes she dumbs herself down to try and fit in by seeming a bit slow or dumber than she is. However she finds it increasingly frustrating when these people make a joke of it. As she knows thats not her. To the ones who truly know her though, they know this is not her and will never do this. She is a fierce, fierce friend, never the one to leave a friend hanging, alone, upset, angry and hates to fall out with them. She has big dreams, a big future ahead of her and had planned it out, but is trying not to think of that right now and focus on now, the present.

I’m not a break down kinda girl ..

I strongly dislike girls who whine and complain and eat ice cream all night and cried their eyes out because life was so aweful yatta yatta! C’mon ladies pick yourselfs back up ! I wouldn’t say I had a break down the other night just a “moment” if you will.And this moment was built up from the stresses of life and school .I had been up since 5:30 from school to work to work to cutting at the fire station (another post) to Weber State again (my new home). I had to watch a two hour lecture then take a test the next morning, except for Weber’s library closes at 11:00 which I only got to watch 1 hr of the lecture, stressed and overwhelmed I gathered my stuff and walked across campus and tripped/ slid on the cement and caught my self at the last minute, which is not unusual for me I am very clumsy it was the “moment” point when I looked around to see if anyone saw? A boy about 5 yards away looked back, I held up my hand up and said “I’m good” he asked are you sure? “ yep, totally in control” I tried really hard not to cry on my long climb back to my car I whispered to my self (with straight arms and tight fists) I can do this! I can do this… I am smart.. I am so smart … This is easy I can totally do this! I did well, no tears were shed ...but close. When I got home that night I was exhausted mentally physically everything .I read these verses in Mosiah :” Thus God has provided a means that man, through faith, might work mighty miracles; therefore he becometh a great benefit to his fellow beings.” There is a “Means” and I can do this and it will be a miracle to finish school  “ But if ye will turn to the Lord with full purpose of heart, and put your trust in him, and serve him with all diligence of mind, if ye do this, he will, according to his own will and pleasure, deliver you out of bondage.” Ok so I’m not in bondage but school is pretty close. In the words of my mother “It always seems worse than it is”
One last gem of inspiration that could only be provided by R Kelly- possibly the cheesiest song in American Rap culture but I love it !and yes I do often sing this to myself.

If anybody axe you who I am? Just stand up tall Look 'em in the face and say
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest!!!!!

(Dear Amy

I found this note on my night stand when I got back from Costa Rica...break my heart I'm a terrible sister!She is so funny though, I don't think anyone secretly wants my "fit body" "smarts" and "great paying job" ha ha ha ha ha !

I stumbled upon this blog http://www.rachelthurston.com/travel/peru.php
-And I miss it, I saw all of those things in Peru.
-I want to go back.
-I have a story from there that is dear to my heart
-It's called Anderson
-I met a little boy named Anderson in Peru.
-He was adorable.
-I met him at church on Sunday I was sitting on a bench listening to Spanish hymns
-He was sitting with his primary class nervously waiting to perform the primary program.
-Our eyes met and for a minute that 3 year old boy sat still.
-I then winked at him
-He winked back
-Heart melted
-He blew me a kiss I blew him one back
-He raised his eyebrows up and down in a very "eh,eh" manner
-I did it back
-By this time the whole congregation is aware of us
-then he smiles.. ah one silver caped tooth ...beautiful.
-After the program he ran from the stand
-Came right to my bench and put my face in his cubby little hands
-And patted one of my cheeks
-My friend Peru leaned over and told he was up for adoption and he came to the mission house the other day to get his picture taken for the adoption website.
-Heart melted
-that night while I was on the phone with my mom I asked her if I could adopt a little brother...named Anderson
-She told me sure but, you have to take him with you when you move out
-Dang.
-We walked home from church together until we came to his street.
-I gave him a hug and he walked down the other Alley with his mom.
-I walked away with no little brother.
-Sometimes I think about Anderson and the people of Peru.
-Someday I will go back
-Someday.
