happy thanksgiving

I am so thankful for so much. Like really. Just wanted to give this great holiday a shout out. Now that its over, guess what that means. Time for Christmas music.

freaking a

all i want to do is post a stupid picture of hot chocolate. im not even smart enough to figure that out. i hate this crap.



bah! finally...

12 going on 35

So my little sister Marina is a hoot. Today we were sent to the grocery store to pick up some chocolate for our mom. (such a classy lady) anyways... We are in the check out counter and she grabs some hot chocolate packets for us to enjoy. We get up to the check out, and by that time she has realized there was like 1000g of sugar in a shot packet of hot cocoa. She promptly turns around and puts them back. We leave the store and I asked her why she didn't buy them. She turns to me and says: "Camilla. There was so much sugar! That is not healthy for you!" What a doll. What little girl doesn't just die at a chance to shove as much chocolate down their throat as they can?? I'm so glad that she is sufficiently health conscience for the both of us. Every big sister needs a 12 year old going on 35 year old sister to take care of them.

p.s. I helped Marina create a blog earlier this week.

Brittany Spears: every little girls role model

So once I heard this fact(umm rumor) about Brittany Spears' work out plan. To keep her tummy flat and sexy she does 700 crunches a day for one week, and eats 5 small meals a day. Doesn't sound too hard right? Well I announced this to the girls I teach with, and they thought that it would be a great idea if we each committed to this workout. We were supposed to start on Tuesday, and by church on Sunday we are supposed to report back. Yeah, umm this was my idea and guess how many crunches I have done. zero. keep it real.

Hi Joeli

Ok so you really are my biggest fan. Does it crack you up that every time you look at my blog the title and the background are different? Blog backgrounds are like shoes. You have to try on a like 50 pairs before you find one that fits just right. I am on background 10. 40 more to go and then maybe I will find one that jives just right.

A New Post

Today I went tanning (don't judge me) with Linds and Boo at the Pyramid shopping center. The little girl at the tanning place loved us, and it was such a great experience I think we are going again before we leave. :) Boo tried a smoothie from the smoothie stand we pass everyday and it was disgusting. The chick took full advantage of our language handicap, and gave us a carrot smoothie. Yeah I know! That's all it was.... Just purified carrot. Out of the 35 fruit choices the nice little lady picked out the veggie one. What a doll. Anyways, after enjoying our drink we decided it was a really good idea to go shopping. Did we buy anything? No. It was still SO much fun. Ukrainians have an interesting sense of style, but we still loved window shopping. I forgot to mention that along the way we picked up Alena and Austin. At some point, Austin went to chill with the hot missionaries. Speakin of Austin, he is growing out his beard right now. He doesn't want to shave it before we go home. He asked if there was something he could do to grow it out, and I told him that he could brush it. It stimulates the roots, and that allows it to grow a little bit faster. Dumbfounded he stares at me for a good 10seconds. Is that why girls brush their hair he responded? I laughed so hard I cried. The people surrounding us on the metro escalator must have been slightly confused, but the stares were worth it. It gets dark by like 4:30 here so by the time 6 rolled around I was exhausted. I decided to come back to Little America and chill on the computer for a while. So here I am. Chillen in Ukraine, listening to Etta James and blogging about my life as I know it. Cant get much better then this. xo

R.I.P.

Toothpaste kisses is dead. I thought it was an great idea, but the title made it sound like I was married, and that I had this adroable love life when in fact I am on a man diet... ha oh well. I will get it down sooner or later. love you mom!

Hi Mom

So I know you are the only one who reads my blog, but that is ok. It's more of a "personal on-line journal" anyways. I swore I would never become a blogger, but it's not so bad. I just wish that it wasn't so addicting. I knew starting down this road was going to have its effects. It's going to be good though. Actually... It's going to be great.
