Obama 2012

Every day I am more and more for President Obama! Every day has a new story about Mitt comes out and I cant stand him. Today I ordered a lawn sign and a car magnet for my car. I cant wait to get them. I am not afraid that people will judge me especially in Utah. I am proud to stand up for what I believe in, and standing up for what is right. 

Oh Hello Blog

I am so bad at keeping a blog! I want to get better. I will be starting a new blog to let you all follow my new life high in the sky. (ohh possible blog name?) I will post the link here once I get it set up. http://lifehighinthesky.blogspot.com/ I will also announce there where I will be stationed! I will be keeping this one for non flight related things. You know things that make me smile!

 My new job! I am still in shock! I really thought I blew it the first interview down in Arizona, so when I got an email saying I had been chosen to move on to the last interview I was totally blown away! Then when I actually got this email (above) I seriously cried!

 I have been fostering puppies lately. I cant adopt another dog so this is my way of helping. I was so sad i couldnt keep the girls (above) they are so sweet, but they went to an awesome home so I feel great!

 My girls at Deer Valley Music fest. They always make me smile. They are my loves!

 I love doing photoshoots with J.A.Miller. I love what we get out of her amazing sessions.

 My 24th birthday! I had a blast! A home made "Bazinga" Cake, a handmade crown and sash! I loved it! We went to the Tavernacle for some duling pianos! I got to dance on the piano with Nicoley! Love!

 4th marriage! When we were in Chicago for Ally's college graduation we decided we wanted to get our 4th marriage! Apparently it was a dress in black wedding.

 FHE!  I got to join Amanda, Ellie, and Clint on FHE to the dinosaur park in Ogden. It was hot, but fun! They are my favorite O-town people ever.

 I discovered that Star Trek Next Generation is on netfilx, and I fell in instant love. I have been watching an episode each night before bed. I want to kiss Patrick Stewart so hard, and Johnathon Frakes ( Will Riker)

Last night Jeremy came home and asked if I wanted a new laptop, I said yeah I need one but I'll buy it after training in November. But he said no I mean now, lets go to best buy. So we did and I walked out with a great new computer! Maybe now that I have my own I will update both blogs regularly.

Football season!! So so so excited! College football and my Utes! Hopefully they pick up their game and start playing like a Pac-12 team. And my NFL team! Love me some Ravens! Last night they played amazing! Flacco has quite the arm. I cant wait to watch more!

Update In My Smiley World

I have been working my ass off trying to get a flight attendant position and been traveling a ton to do so. I went to Fresno California for a skywest interview, that was the biggest waste of money and time but I met a flight attendant who gave me great advise which I used in my other interviews. 

I made it to Denver and while that was a bust I was lucky enough to go down to La Foret and met up with an old friend. When I went back to Denver I met up with another old friend and it was wonderful. Talking for hours, kinda felt like it had only been weeks not years. 

Then I made my way to Arizona, where I had 2 interviews with Mesa Air group. I think it went well I made it to the 2nd interview so now I have to wait a while a couple weeks to find out if I make it to the 3rd interview.

The girls and I did a photoshoot with the dogs and it was so much fun. So hot and humid but fun. The next day Jeremy and I also had our own shoot the next day. 

My loves and I went to the Deer Valley Music Festival to watch Broadway Rocks. We had 3 bottles of wine and a bottle of champagne and by "half time"  we had finished it all. 

Jeremy and I have been working on the house slowly but we are making progress. Yesterday we deep cleaned all the bathrooms and then we cleaned the garage. Today Im putting together James's old room in to a guest room. Hopefully by October Jere and I can get a new bed so we can set up the 3rd guest room.

                                                            Me and My girls at Deer Valley

                                                                   Me and Jeremy

Im super classy

A quick frown

I know this is the blog "Things that make me smile" but today something happened and I need to get it out.

I got a call from a sister missionary stating that one of my close friends had given her my number because i was in a place where i needed to get "help" or whatever.

Normally a call like this wouldnt have bugged me, but in high school she was my friend she accepted me for me never pushed her religion on me and i never pushed my beliefs on her.

Since high school I have moved further away from any and all religions, and i know she knows. She was always the one best mormon friend I had that never tried to convert me. I feel betrayed for lack of a better word. She gave my number away knowing fully where I stand on this religion issue. I posted these lyrics on facebook:

"And following their rules is such a God foresaken bore, 
Now I say God because I'm programmed, 
But I believe in none"- The Noose Tech N9ne

And I think that contributed to her wanting to "help" me. But thats honestly how I feel. I am me, i believe in what i believe i do what i believe is morally right or i try my hardest to be the best Gabby I can be.

I think the reason i feel most betrayed is that she knows me, she accepted me for who i am and what i do, but now she doesnt. Am i a worse person? what happened where all of a sudden being me isnt good enough. Why cant people accept me for me. I think Im a decent person I think how i want to live my life is just fine. I have an AMAZING husband who loves me for me, the bestest of friends who remind me almost every day that they love me. 

I dont know how to even bring up to her how upset i feel that im not good enough the way i am, or that how i feel by having her betray me and give my number to a missionary. I understand she just got back from her mission and is getting temple married and is very up on her church i get it but it still upsets me deeply. 

I have no problem sharing my religious views with anyone, if they ask for them. Im not going to spew what i believe and why to strangers, i dont need to explain myself. All anyone needs to know is that i am agnostic, meaning I dont know what i am, i am discovering myself and where i belong. Some religions i know 100% i dont belong in. But I want to figure it out by myself, not have someone push me in the direction they want for me

I would really appreciate some feedback on how to handle the convo with my friend and what to tell the missionary when she calls again.

Short But Sweet

So I have some downtime and decided its time for the things that are making me smile, I have to stay up for 2 hours until I can register for summer semester, I need to get a jump on the classes I need. So what better time to write a post.

 St Pattys day with Nicole and Jenelle was such a blast! we went bar hopping, and just had a good time met new friends in bars, has some hookah, and pizza.

BEST MUSICAL EVER! so funny if you havent seen it do NOT listen to the music. I didnt listen to the music before i saw it and Im so glad! the play was so much better when i didnt know the music.

Engagements! One of my oldest and dearest friends from high school got engaged this week and I couldnt be happier. I introduced her to her soon to be hubby because I knew that they would get married. I am so happy for her! Im also super proud that I set them up and knew they would last, but im even more proud that they made it work! Through 2 missions and lots of distance when they werent on their missions. I am so happy for you Bridgette and Kraig, cant wait for June 20th 2012!

So this started being something that made me sad. I was having a super hard time today studying for accounting, because my teacher is missing lots of classes and her handouts dont make sense, I just had a total break down. I have decided that I am changing my college choice for now. I am going to get my AS in Health Sciences and once Im done with that go to work get some basic experience, while going online towards my BS in Health Service Administration.I would get my AS Spring 2013 with out taking a ton of credits and busting myself every semester. This wasnt a decision I took lightly which brings me to my last thing for the night

Planning. I have been planning my future. Ok mine and Jeremys future. We really want to leave the country while he is still in the army. I dont think I could make it through a deployment where he was in the middle east, but we think he can volunteer for one in South Korea and I can go with him because it is still a friendly zone. It also makes college easier because I can do it online while I am there with my bachelors degree. This gives me the time to focus on my classes and I think thats what I really need. I feel lost and confused with school but i think its figured out. Nothing is set in stone about Korea or anything but I love planning, when I plan my life seems better like I have a direction and purpose, and something to look forward to.

Tv shows

The shows i am currently watching spring 2012

Monday's break down:

one of the funniest shows i have ever seen, its less about teds love life and more about everyone. Barney and Marshall are my favorite characters. A must watch comedy.

This is an ok show. not my most favorite i liked it but then they added a crazy neighbor in a bad polish accent she just ruins it for me.

My guilty pleasure! I do love this show. I love Blair and Chuck. its all over dramatized but its nice to get away and wish i could afford those clothes, and ed westwick would want to be with me

Still trying to figure out how i feel about this show. it is interesting. from the producer of lost, it really kind of messes with your mind and there are some wtf moments but nothing like lost. trying to find the 63 and hearing all the stories of alcatraz is very cool. even cooler when they film inside and i reconize the places because i have been there.

Again another new show i am trying to decide if i like. i love Broadway and i love Debra messing. it is interesting to see how a play comes together i will stick with it through the season.

Tuesday's breakdown:

I like the music. thats pretty much it. i hate the storys and the writers. I want to punch them, they arent sending the right message, awesome be gay but then fin and rachel getting married. all a little hokey for me i think im done with this show

BEST COMEDY! seriously so so funny! Every line is a winner. Zooey is so cute and funny I have a girl crush on her! the supporting cast is also just as amazing as she is. they did this right!

From the producers of scrubs. I love this show they do random things and drink wine. the personalities really make the show, i want to be in this group when im 40.

Home improvement is a funny show! oh wait this isnt that? its the same but he has 3 daughters. still funny, like his wife better then jill, but again it is home improvement he goes an random tangents on his webblog instead of his tool show. again doing the manly things. it is funny and i do like it .

Wednesdays breakdown:

This starts this week and i am guessing it will be just as bad as the last seasons. i used to love this show but tyra is so over the top im losing interest and fast.

Meh, has its moments lost intrest after about the 3 or 4th episode, still watching to see if it gets better.

Law and Order SVU. I love this, it has been one of my favorite forever. i was so worried when stabler left, but they brought in 2 new good people and liv is the best at what she does. all the people have backgrounds and its less about just 2 lead police people.

BEST REALITY SHOW! it is so interestering on how people get made in to monsters. all the work behind the makeup. worth checking out. they are so talented and its all about the talent not popularity

Thursdays Breakdown:

The most clever show out there. i cant do it justice by writing what i think. just check it out!

I became addicted to this show about a year ago. I like the doctors and wish mine were all the pretty. i am 100% rooting for lexi and mark.  i love the medical cases, they are better then house.

Fridays Breakdown:

The 3rd season, this one follows season 1, season 2 took a break and did a prequel  because the main actor got cancer and took a break. he signed a paper to say someone else could play his charature and sadly andy whitefeild died october 2011. this show is porn. lots of male penis everywhere. and lots of gore. be prepared.

Sundays Breakdown:

nothing more to say then amazing. love this show stewie and Brian are my favorites they make the show.

American dad is my favorite animated show. i love everything about it.

More then once a week. (you didnt think id forget did you?)

Love. love love. he is so funny. only thing i dont like is when he has all his commentators on.

Just hilarious. he is so funny, i love him and everything!


If there are any i missed and should check out let me know! and if i have a new one you check out let me know what you think!

Im back!

Wow cant believe I haven't touched this in almost a year. I am such a slacker. So I must make this worth it and keep it up! Slap me if I dont! Trying to make this a weekly thing!
Well why wait lets get things started!

Motorcycles! I bought this for Jeremy on Feb 24th 2012. He wanted this one we had made plans to buy it on a loan but we got denied. Luckly gold saved the day 

 Gold! My dad bought some gold proof sets when he was alive and left them to my mom. Gold is at an all time high so we decided to sell. my mom gifted one to me and one to jeremy. I gifted mine to jeremy so i could buy him the motorcycle

Kevin Pollak! Such a funny man, I got free tickets to see him and I took Nicole with me. He is so funny, he has a webcast that you should all check out! 

Utah Aids Foundation. I just started working with UAF and its amazing! I love the people I volunteer with!Ellie and I went out to a gay club to pass out condoms one night, and the rest of the time I have been working at the testing center! Also I am hopefully gonna get certified to be a aids counselor. 

My new car! I love this car! It just makes me so happy!

Robin Willams! I watched Live on Broadway, Weapons of  Self Destruction, and Jumanji yesterday. I really do love him! So funny!
