So I've been sick alot lately. At first my boyfriend gave me a really bad cold...and then my roommates gave me the flu. (though one of my roomies tried to avoid it by going over to her friends place...but they have it too...its going around :D) But yeah....so back to the story.
Anyway, my boyfriend was amazingly sweet and romantic today. He told me to go out to the lounge at 4pm and he'd have some powerade waiting for me. I forgot and then at 4:09pm my neighbor came over and asked me to clean it up lol. I guess he had made a trail of kisses and hugs from my door to the lounge. And inside the lounge was a trail of kisses and hugs to the desk and they were taped up the wall of the desk to where he had the powerade and a note waiting. The note was a romantic invitation asking me to the Fall Formal on Friday.
I never thought that i would meet someone this amazing, sweet, and romantic. I thought that this was just for the movies. I never thought that I would, let alone, date someone like this. I'm so lucky. He never lets me forget that I am a Princess.

Update
Sorry people. I've been horrible with keeping this blog up. I almost forgo what email I used to create the account. How lame am I?
Well for all you screaming fans here is the scoop.
My new address (for the next 6 weeks) is: 317 Lamprecht Hall Rexburg, ID 83460.
SO I've totally kept everyone in the dark for forever. I have a boyfriend!!! Yeah. We've been dating since May 17. His name is Tyler Castaldo. He is an RM.He served in the Phillipines and regularly speaks in the language he learned which is Tagalog. Its so confusing. I have no idea what he is saying half the time. He is a big Avalanche fan (HOCKEY TEAM OF COLORADO). He hates the Red Wings. To him they are the evil empire. I hope that that isn't a problem (bro. mott lol). His favorite band is Lifehouse. He is the youngest of three....way different position then the oldest of six lol. It was interesting watching him trying to talk to his cousin's little boy at his family reunion. His Bro is awesome and hilarious. It's great fun to play games with him...Big fat cheater ;). He flys planes on missions by remote control...so far as I know. His older sister is named Jami. She is pretty cool. I shared a room with her while we were up there. I was banished to the top two floors until the boys woke up each day. Good but irritating if I left things down in the basement.
His mother and father are really nice. They both have awesome spirits about them. (Not liquor...you know the kind I'm talking about). His dad is an awesome cook. His birthday was on the 23rd. And his mom is so sweet. She made a blanket for me for my birthday. Jami made me this cool funky scarf. Tyler gave me a CTR ring (dark purple sparkly background)...but he forgot that we wear almost the same ringsize so he made a mistake and ordered a size 6 lol so he just sent it back today to get it resized. So I will have to post pictures later.
I'm staying up here for the seven week break in between the semesters. So that means I work at the bakery 8 hours a day from 4 am to 10:30 am (including breakfast break). I so need to go work out....yuck,...the galley food is just so good lol. But it is fun working in the mornings. I get to work with Sean Kelly and Curtis. They are the full time bakers in the morning. And they are so funny. We have water and dough fights all the time. I win of course. It is alot of fun. Other than water and dough fights I do actually work. I fry donuts. That is my main job. But after I'm done with that I bak breads and make desserts and package orders.
Tyler works in the galley at 3:30 to 10. So it is pretty hard for us to see each other. But we try to make the time we do have with each other worth something. Its fun because he sometimes cleans the fryers in the galley. So know he knows somewhat of how I feel after work since I clean the fryer I use every day. So it really sucks...I go home smelling of sweat and grease. I swear that I'm beginning to smell like grease all the time.
Other than work I'm trying to use my time wisely. So far its not working. I need to go to the gym and fill out my application for Jerusalem. OH YEAH!!! For all of you who didn't know I'm trying to get into the BYU Jerusalem Center for the winter semester. It seems like it is my one and only chance since I can't go if I'm married. And who knows what the future holds. I also wanted to get ahead in my classes for next semester (aka read the textbooks before I start the classes). YUCK!!! But it will be worth it when the semester starts if I can get it done.
My roomies are freshies so they like to break the rules and stay up all the night long. So it is hard to get a good night sleep. I have to get up at 3:20am everyday except Sunday. But they are awesome. There is Cerilyn from El Paso, TX and Megan from Arizona and Cecilia from Ohio but she is in Utah with her sister from possibly the remainder of the summer (if so then she kinda wasted about $300 for rent during the summer break since she won't be here).
Oh yeah....my birthday was pretty awesome. It felt like I was celebrating it for like a week since I was at the family reunion and it was Tyler's dad's birthday and then his uncle has the same birthday as me so it was birthday all week long. And then we got back on Saturday and then that night the school had a firework display for Pioneer day. Though I like to think it was all for me. lol. They had some new fireworks. Once they exploded the sparks stayed up in the sky and slowly drifted across the sky. It took them a few minutes to finally make it to the ground and burn out. it was awesome. Then on Sunday I went to church and made dinner and then Tyler made my cake and he also had bought me Ice cream the day before. I opened my cards (which were my favorite present). my sister had written a note inside saying that she knew that we used to hate each other but that now she couldn't imagine living without me. It was the best gift I could ever have received. Mom sent me some jeans and she had had Clayton and Jalen go in with her to victoria secret and pick out some fragrances. They picked Appletini and Mango Madness...lol nice huh. But it was cute finding out that the missed me alot and couldn't wait to see me again. They are hoping that I go up to my grandparent's 50th anniversary with Tyler so that they can see me and meet him. I'm going to try but right now it is tough.
It was nice to get calls from alot of friends on my birthday (some didn't even know why they were calling me but they felt like they needed to lol). I even got a call from my boss, Curtis. That was awesome. He is like a father figure away from home. Its nice to talk to him at work and listen to his stories.
Oh ...by the way...what is it with all of my friends getting married...? goodness.
Update to come later!!!
Love,
Chelsea
P.S. I miss you all and I cant wait to see you!!!!

Last Night
Ok...where did I leave off. So I went to Ward Prayer which was really cool. These three guys went around the circle before we began and introduced themselves to all the girls. it was hilarious. So then me and my roommate, Shay, made our way down to Stadium Singing. Stadium Singing is where students meet together underneath the stadium bleachers and belt out hymns together. Its amazing. You can feel the spirit really strong if you are in tune with it. So we went down and it was freakin freezing. We were so not dressed warm enough. So we huddled together and tried to keep warm. Then more people (meaning the guys) from our ward showed up and we shared our Hymnal with this RM named Tyler. He is still awkward about the now being able to be social part. Lol. But he's cool. He's a computer programmer and he served in the Phillipines. Then we huddled in a group with these guys, one was named Devin and I think the others name was Chris. "Chris" is here with his Cousin. They are from So. Cal. So after we had stadium singing. Devin and Tyler walked me and Shay back to our dorm. That was really nice of them. We shared stories and hot chocolate when we got to our place. It was really fun. They left shortly before midnight (right before curfew lol). So needless to say I didn't get to bed til midnight. And then had to wake up at four for work. But it was worth it. They are really nice guys. But I think mostly friend material lol. So I think we are going to be hanging out alot more after stadium singing. And we have ward family home evening tonight so we get to see them again. So now that I've relayed everything that happened I'm going to crash for a few hours before class. Good thing I dont have class til 2pm on Mon/Wed/Fri.
Goodnight. I'll have updates on classes later today.

School
OK...now that the day is coming to a close there is time to write a blog. Ok so Friday I worked for the last time at Jamba Juice. it was Sara's Birthday so we sang to her. I was the only one on the front line for a long time because the leads were having a meeting in the back and my manager was doing inventory. So I had to deal with every single rush by myself....very fun...very stressful... Luckily some massage students came by to give free massages to all the customers = SCORE FOR CHELSEA!!! Get the kinks out of my back before I have to spend hours in an airplane trying not to feel sick. So after I said bye to everyone and they gave me a going away present (a recipe book for chocolate!!!) I had my massage... It was amazing. Hear the shivers of relaxation roll down my spine good. I so want to learn how to do that. Lol. ...Ok moving on.
So I Rebekah Mott picked me up from work and we had a very nice long talk about alot of things before I went to school. I packed...and packed...and repacked...trying to get each bag under 50 lbs...(I have a very big tendency to overpack) LOL. So after that....trip to the airport. Clay and Jay came with me, mom and dad. They talked my ear off cause they are going to miss me. I'll have to write them letters and stuff. So me and my mom said by and my dad and I went to check our bags...another adventure in the making. So I was a freakin' retard again and left my id in the dash of the car...didn't even realize I didn't have it. I almost wasn't allowed to go on the plane but luckily I had my social Security card and my student ID. I need to like order 5 drivers licenses and put them in a safe or something in case I lose the one I had in my wallet. Lol.
So the flight was delayed for about an hour. So me and my dad chilled and talked. It was so nice just for him to let his guard down and try to get to know this new me who is trying to grow up. He's trying to cling to still taking care of me...its kinda nice. But yeah...we got sandwiches...I tasted avacado for the first time. It was pretty good. it reminds me of what sour cream does with food...but not really. It gives it this extra flavor and creaminess. Lol. So then we boarded the flight. I was just focusing on not losing my stomach or my head to the pounding. The air wasn't really working on the flight...I thought I was going to die for a little while...(on flights I have to have air blowing on my face to keep my stomach and mind at ease). And then the stinky speakers were so loud when they dinged to get your attention. The plane was so small it intensified the sound so I was dying when I got off the plane...trying not to fall over. I probably was green...A sight to see...for anyone who wanted blackmail that is.
And then we got a rental car...another mini adventure trying to figure out how I could put it on my card even though I wasn't the primary driver...that was interesting. And then we were on oour way.....to the hotel that is. It was really late. So we got to the hotel. Had another adventure trying to figure out how to hook up my computer to the cable that gave me internet there. Yikes...technically challenged right there. But we got it working. My dad played WOW (world of Warcraft). And we watched CSI and just talked. It was awesome.
The next morning we found that the power had gone off that night and so my dad was woken up with an extremely cold shower LOL!!!! Then driving for four hours commenced at 9am. It was really cool...we listened to music and talked about some things that you could only talk about on a trip like this. I wish it lasted longer.
So we finally got to Idaho Falls...went shopping at Winco. dad says he is spoiled in Cali...according to him there wasn't one good looking female lol. And that it was like all the mental institutions had let loose their patients for the day. He was like Where do these people come from?? And we wonder where morgan gets it Lol.
So we went up to the campus. Got my room number and keys... and then moved everything in. Then got the storage out of my unit and moved that in. It was hard work. I'm upstairs again. And I have alot of crap here unfortunately. So then we got my books. And then went to get some subway. We found out that my dad's mission companion couldn't put him up for the night cause he was still out of town so we got my dad a hotel and then we went to the movies. We saw the Forbidden Kingdom. It was pretty good for a kung fu movie. It so funny to hear my dad laugh. I need to record the sound one of these days. So then cause my dad was kept asking me where I was going to stay that night ( with him or in the dorm) I stayed with him in the hotel...I think he wanted one more night... so we chilled and watched movies. And then we had breakfast downstairs. Turns out one of the couples we breakfasted with was my roomie's parents. They had been worried about who their daughter was rooming with and were very happy that it was me. So I went to church while my dad stayed in the car (he had no church clothes). It was really cool. The bishopric is awesome. They gave talks on charity. I'll have to give an overview of them later. So then my dad and me got some lunch and then he dropped me off and we said goodbye. I was amazed that I was able to keep from crying til my dad was gone. Once he was gone and I was in my dorm I balled my eyes out for 5 minutes. He had said earlier that it was easier for him last time cause he wasn't the one who had to leave me here.
So now I'm here writing after a lifetime of unpacking and now I have to actually get dressed and go down to ward prayer at the guys dorms and then stadium singing. I'll tell you all what that is after I get back. So I'm off now. This semester is my chance to change for the better and shuff off all that was wrong before. So I'm going to try and make an effort to go out on dates and be social and go to all the functions....even though the person that I really want to date is in Cali....email me for details.!!!!!

NEW HAIRCUT!!!!
Hey Everyone!!!
Sorry I haven't written in awhile. April 5th I got my haircut!!! I donated 12 inches to locks of love. And then I just let Kimberly Smith do her magic. She gave me an A-Line cut. Its amazing!!! I love it. It's nice to be able to just get my hair messed up and I can just shake my head and its falls back in place. Though going to bed at night kinda sucks cause your hair wants to go in your face a lot. Still trying to figure out what I can do with it. I haven't figured out how to spike it yet. Oh Well.
Peace Out!!!
