Happy Christmas Everyone

So the fam and I are having a spectacular Christmas. With the family together, we went through some old pictures of ours. Boy o' boy what a hoot!

We found this little gem, and I thought I'd share.

Merry Christmas!

Moving Day...

Again?? It feels like just yesterday I moved into this place, and I'm already leaving?? Craziness. I just decided today that I was going to move back home this Saturday, so I've started my packing. School has been great and the semester went by sooo fast!! A little too fast. I started thinking, and I'm going to miss Logan terribly terribly bad! Logan, you've been good to me. The friendships, the memories. Man, good times!

I'll Miss:

The Roomies~

And their own quirky ways.

My Besties~

Old, or New, These Are Great People.

Claire and Brittany.

Awesome Friends.

THE TWO-FIFTEENIES!!

(My adopted room)

Tearin Up The Dance Floor!~

Always up for any dance party we could find. Found very interesting people. haha

Claire was like my wingman, or woman?? You get the picture. haha

And Everything That Logan Had To Offer For Some Good Times~

Like Good Sushi Runs,

LATE LATE NIGHTS,

Conquering Quests Around Campus,

"I Challenge You to a DUUUUUUUEEEEEEELLLLL!!!!"

And Randomly Burying People in the Sand.

I Will Miss You Logan....

Look out Sandy, I'm ready to party it up this holiday season!!!

Sneak Peek!

So I have been doing sooo much research about the program, and here's a glimpse at Carnegie Plaza.... WHERE I'LL BE STAYING!!

Home Sweet Home.

How to get to Taiwan....

For a kick in the pants, follow these directions:

1. Go to this website, maps.google.com


2. Type in the search engine, "California to Taiwan".


3. Proceed to look at the directions on the left side.


4. You will soon notice that these are the BEST directions ever given.


5. Pay close attention to steps, 20, 95, 123, and 131.

If I get enough time off of work while i'm in California... I am going to follow these directions exactly!

HOOoowwwlllll-eeeeen!!!

Being a college student, I can now participate in college parties. I present to you, the HOWL! The biggest Halloween Party in Utah. We had sooo much fun at the Howl, it was a crazy Halloween this year!!!!

Time to hit the dance floor! It was packed!!

Here is some of the crew tearin up the floor!

Brotha's from anotha motha!! haha A Pimp with a Balla!

Afros are genetic.

And if dancing weren't enough, they also had some awesome, mind blowing shows!

First up, we have the Massive Monkees. This was a dance crew that came from the show America's Next Best Dance Crew. They were pretty good.

Then, the mind blowing part of the night. We had this guy called the Mentalist. His name is Craig Karges. HE IS AMAZING! Claire and I just left his show saying wow. I hate it when I can't figure things out. If you have time, I would watch the whole thing. He did alot of these acts for us at the Howl.

We ended the night/morning with an afterparty and some scary movies. Very productive Halloween!

I do however miss the days of being a kid.

R.I.P to Trick-or-Treating,

Thanks for all of the goodies you brought to me throughout the years to keep me chubby, and have plenty of cavaties. We sure had great times! :)

Disneyland or Bust!

IT'S OFFICIAL!

I'm going to DISNEYLAND!

I've paid my entrance fees, signed up for my arrival date, and now have blogged about it. :)

How much more official could it get?

I found out last Thursday.

I was working when my sister had called. I was in the library so of course I ignored the call.

After that, she called me two more times. Noticing how persistent she was, I texted her that I was in the library and asked what the emergency was.

She texts back: You totally just got something in the mail from Disney!!!

After reading that, in all honesty my heart sunk.

It was only barely two weeks after the interview, and they told me it would take about 4 weeks. So naturally I thought it was a rejection letter.

I finished up my work in the library, while still ignoring my sister's calls until I finally left.

Once I was out, I called her back and told her to get it over with and to read to me what it said.

She then opens it up and begins to read... to herself. haha

I then hear her laughing and screaming.

She then exclaims: "Mandi, Disney wants you! You made it!!"

I then proceeded to do a happy dance... haha I was ecstatic!!

I immediatly started to call my family and tell them the good news!

I saved the Heybornes for last, and luckily the whole family was in the car.

I beated around the bush a bit till I finally spilled the beans.

"I'm movin to California!"

Trisha started to scream, and tells the family that I got the job at Disneyland. I could hear the kids as they were all exclaiming how excited they were that their aunt would work for Disneyland.

Needless to say, I'm soooo excited, and I am grateful that I have such loving and supporting family that are there with me on this new adventure of my life.

Even if the ones in California are a little bit biased. ;)

DISNEYLAND OR BUST:

My arrival date is January 17th, 2010.

Ends about August 12th, 2010.

COME VISIT THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH

AND ME!!!!
