some vegas. some utah. a whole lotta nice. [;

so, hmmm.. where to start? well sunday i woke up way too early. 7am! after going to sleep around maybe 2 or 3. i was suppose to have a kind of 'bye for five days?' breakfast with hippo but let's just say that didn't end up happening. anyway i got up packed and got ready to go. not that much later kristine came to pick me up and we were on our way... to the bank! haha. then we went back to my house and ate yummy tacos. once on the rode of course we stopped at AM PM to get slushies, snacks, and gasssss. 

our road trip finally began [:
i loved to the car ride. to say the least. reading friendship and A WHOLE LOT of singing!!! muaha. loves it! so our first stop was in san bernandino to meet up with elsa. someone we didn't expect to be driving her car- er, was. but we chose to ignore it. when we finally got to vegas- after singing at the top of our lungs and hitting on guys that passed us on the road- we found none other than DUM DUM DUM: sonics!!!! we like seriously let out a fricken shriek of joy. you have like no clue how long we've been wanting to go to that dang place. we didn't stop though. kuz we were following elsa. 

"dang, where does she live? arizona?" haha, so it turned out that elsa's apartment is HUMONGO. like seriously. it was fricken pretty too. we decided to go for a swim in the pool. which looked like a smaller version of the HSM pool. noooo lie. supah nice. [:

so we swam. caught up and what not then decided to go back to her place. however, we were locked out. which sucked. but we got dry. haha.

"what's the point in this? why do we have to just sit here. our lives are so pointless." after the long wait for the dang keys and many mistaken cars later we were finally let back in to the apartment. not to mention we got a home cooked meal and about eight corona and limes each. which wasn't too shabby. all was forgiven.

so around midnight or one, when we were all- or well mostly all- good and tipsy we made our way to the strip. the original plan was to buy a boot! but it turned out that they were sold out so we bought the next  best thing. a super strong tequila filled ginormous twenty dollar slushie. FK ya!!!!! hahahaah. 

"PAPA CAN YOU HEAR ME? MAMMA CAN YOU HEAR ME"
"why aren't you answering her?"

dang. gotta love vegas. walking down the strip. drink in hand. gulpping down sluquilla (slushie&tequila). brain freeze! man the works. then we decided to drive to the world's biggest gift shop. except the stupid thing was closed. we're still dropping by on our way back though.

made our way home at around 5:30am. and decided we needed to go buy some "stuff". haha. which was pointless kuz by the time we got home everyone was way too tired to drink and knocked the heck out. OH!! and i almost forgot to write the most exciting part of it all down!!! DIEANA decided to puke all over me!! only after she appropriately puked on herself first. haha, so ya. 

woke up the next morning at around 10? and me and kristine were on our way to utah! we stopped by at sonic's first tho of course. and ordered lunch. our expectations were WAYY high after that dang commercial. we ordered lunch AND dessert. sad to say but it was a big disappointment. /:

ride to utah was so hot. still much fun tho. i drove for like 2 hours and almost knocked the hell out on the rode. haha. anyway after like 5 hours we finally made it safe and sound. KRISSY'S grandparentals are way cute. we played nertz!  

and i think we ate? yaaaaaa, cafe rio. some delicious giant burrito. enchilada style[;
then me and krissy went upstairs. she knocked out at like 10! and i stayed up till around 1 am reading and texting some dumb boy. 

woke up at 12 the next day. we went to the bank. and i met my future husband. DOUG READER<3.>

"i feel eight."
"man, i feel two."

it must be love love love. 
so our meeting with krissy's financial adviser had to end sooner or later right? so we crossed the parking lot to the mac store. everyone here is so fricken friendly. you can't walk into a store with out discussing your life story with whomever is helping you out. 
stopped by HOGI YOGI on the way home.
bought teriyaki chicken and a yogi. el oh el. 
"2.2 ounces! not .1 more! not .1 less!!"

the food was good. krissy had to set up everything on her computer so we played nertz again. then phase 10 which was particularly entertaining since i won. i think we went upstairs after that and had a fricken blast with the new macbook. barb heard me say "penis" and "fucken". i emm ashamed!!! hhahahaha.
"oh my."

that night kinda sucked. krissy fell asleep later. around 12. and i read. i thought i would fall asleep since i was exhausted but nope. i ended up staying up 'til around 4 am which totally blowed. had to woke up early today! big day. krissy made eggs and banana smoothies and we made our way to deer creek lake. love the scenery. so serene. 

we met up with her uncle and got on the boat. man it was amazing. i wanted to stay there for like  EVER. things got complicated tho. haha. we went tube-ING. and wake boarding. and water skiing[;[;[;. haha. we swam too. it was incredible. all you could see was like mountains. and the water. pretty breath taking stuff. we stayed out there for about 4 or 5 hours. then we came home and i showered. i loves me some lake. but it does make me feel pretty dirty. haha. 

anyway currently my phone and stupid boys are annoying me. it's also upsetting that elsa isn't going saturday but whatever. this ish is long enough, right? i wish we could stay longer but eventually it comes time to say goodbye. 

so let's live it. feel it. smell it. taste it. BE it.
forget FELT. and LIVED.
stay in the moment forever.

<3
loves you,
reyna
