I need to cherish these last few weeks that i get to be a teenager. For some reason all my friends have freaked out about turning 20. Maybe because we are no longer teenagers and that kinda sucks. 20 sounds like i should be more established and im way old and should be independent...but im not.
i feel like i need to go out and do a bunch of stuff that 19 year olds do but then i realized what is it that 19 year olds do that 20 year olds dont? prob not much, but if you think of something let me know. I doubt a lot in my life will actually change
me: "i like being a teenager, when im 20 i cant act like a brat anymore..."
kelly: "i cant wait til you turn 20 then..."
hahaha not that being a brat at 19 is socially accepted either but oh well
P.S- did i mention my birthday is on Friday the 13th?

A day in the life of caitlin...
I always do catch up posts because i rather like them
I just got an Easter package from my parents and i loved it! They sent me the movie Tangled, awesome socks in neon colors, the newest Harry Potter movie, a target giftcard and chocolate. Do you think my parents could know me any better?
I have been a workaholic but since im going home in a couple weeks the extra $$$ is great. Serving is going great, i think i'm doing very well, im getting good tips and love a lot of the people i get to meet. Im also picking up a lot of service shifts so its way nice.
i cut myself some side bangs and i love them!
sadly my favorite boss is leaving and im sad cause i kinda adore him
I love jamba juice. When i moved out here i had it and wasnt such a big fan but my friend Kaley took me recently and i got Pomegrante pick me up and it was amazing. I just went the other night and got it again :)
Although ive been a workaholic i managed to fit in cafe rio with some work friends, have a fun night getting 7-11 hot chocolate and hanging out at Mandys, saw Just go with it featuring Adam Sandler and it was way funny, had a farewell roomie lunch, hit up Texas Roadhouse with Kaley, etc
my Life stays good :)

3 Romeos? boy am i lucky
So the semester is coming to an end and two of my room mates are moving out. Its bittersweet because two of my best friends, rach and heather are moving in but i've gotten used to how things are and weve all gotten way close. We did a roomie lunch at Applebees as a goodbye and it was way good! Were pretty good at making time for eachother and i love it. So Heter (really heather) comes back to the room as i'm cleaning it because i just worked a double and forgot about cleaning checks...which is always lovely and since our window is always open theres loud talking right outside of it. I'm kind of annoyed because i think there are so many places that these people could go and have their little conversation at but then suddenly the voice gets creepy and deep.
H: "i think theres someone at our window"
Heter goes to pull up the blinds and i yell to wait, this could be dangerous. Instead i move one of the blinds to peak through and see a pair of eyes staring right back at me. I scream far too loud. Heter falls to the ground hysterically laughing and my other roomie runs in to see whats going on. The figure outside of my window starts laughing and i throw the blinds up. Taylor, kevin, Todd and my roomie millie are gathered around my window. Okay peeping toms, what the heck. They were trying to get on the roof and got stuck at my window, lucky me. It was actually way funny and hard to believe because we are on the second floor and its not exactly easy to get up there. We pushed the screen out so we could talk to them. I pretended that i was juliet and i was lucky enough to have 3 romeos trying to rescue me, although i wasnt really a princess (literally at least..) and i wasnt in any real danger but besides those small details it was pretty awesome. I told them i expected them to be singing and why werent they serenading us and then Taylor broke into song and it was pretty awesome. They then climbed through my window and were in my room. (sorry BYU honor code) But they quickly walked through to the living room and we all just talked for 2 hours since it was prob the last time we would all be able to see eachother since my roomie Heter is going to Taiwain to teach English and the others were moving. But they were so much fun and all three of them kept us laughing all night. I loved it!

Tangled up in well, Tangled
I started off my blog with a movie review and havent done one since so her ya go.
I love Tangled.
Now i am not a huge fan of animated movies at all but this one is an exception prob because what girl doesnt like a movie about princesses and hot animated guys. I kinda love Flynn Rider.
"caitlin youre in love with an animated character..."
"what is that weird or something?"
yeah it kinda is but oh well.
I love to pretend im Rapunzel because she has such long beautiful hair and i love my hair. I'll be honest im kinda obsessed with it and its way long too because im growing it out to donate it.
Now through the movie I had some random thoughts, like when he goes to cut her hair WHY did you cut it so short. Sometimes boys dont think things through. and where are charming boys like flynn?
My parents just sent me an Easter package with Tangled in and i already watched it. I really need to find a new movie to like so i stop watching tangled...

Turn me on...or off, whichever you prefer
Dear boys, take notes.
If you wanna turn me off:
Do i look impressed that you have a tattoo on your arm? Look at my face, umm no. I hope i dont offend anyone but i do not like tattoos at all. Im sorry but you have a sleeve tattoo and now I am no longer focused on that beautiful bicep below it but instead the overbearing artwork of some Chinese symbol that prob means meat head...I know you didn’t get it for me, nor do you prob care what I think but really it would be nice if you would at least consider my opinion next time you deface your arm...thank you.
bad breath. enough said
crack your knuckles, head, back, anything. it makes me sick

Wheres your hair? Now this isnt a deal breaker but it definitely isnt a turn on. I like guys with hair. I mean my dad is 50 something and he still has great hair. Is it too much to ask for my future husband to have hair too?
I'm sorry is that a hole in your ear? why.
Insult me. okay except that one time in middle school when Buddy asked me if i was wearing a tablecloth and i adored him ever since for more reasons than just that though. It was a lack of good fashion judgement on my part (something that never really happens, except in middle school) and i never wore that ugly thing again... When boys tell other boys this works i laugh. Putting me down and saying mean things will not get me to fall head over heels in love with you, although over complimenting me prob wont either because thats just creepy. But it is nice if you would notice that i curled my hair for the first time in like 6 months...Now teasing is a different story, thats cute
Dont shower, smell bad and dont care about your physical appearance at all. Easy enough right.
have 0 motivation to get a job, do anything in life, etc.
be a blonde. okay just kidding but i always tell everyone im not attracted to blondes when the last two guys i thought were kinda cute were blonde...although really tall, dark and handsome wins every time
wear girl jeans. there are many boys in utah who like bedazzled jeans and i feel as though this isnt okay
have a bad laugh. my room mate suggested this one and i wholeheartedly agree.
If you wanna turn me on:
MUST. LOVE. DOGS.
you drive a motorcycle?! Bad A & pref look like this while riding it
Intelligent guys are a real turn on, i just cant date stupid boys.
Guys who are passionate about things. Guys who are easygoing.
wink. i love it when a guy can wink. Let me clarify, wink at me, not one of my many cute room mates
Confidence borderline cockiness. i like it when guys intimidate me a little and they know what they want. Theres just this attitude about them that i love. Guys who are down on themselves, unhappy, negative are not going to go anywhere. No one wants to spend every second reassuring them.
You smell so good. wow. When a boy smells good its embarrassing how much i love it. Like i would be one of those embarrassing girls on the axe commercials who like goes crazy, i always point it out too
I love hats. Like love. My favorite song lyrics are "and i think i like him better with the fitted cap on, he aint even gotta try to put the mac on." The first guy i notice is a guy in a hat. This however could be a turnoff because he could be covering up his receeding hairline and that would be terrible. (see above for turnoffs). But in the event that he is covering up a beautiful head of dark hair then great! because I enjoy boys in hats, mainly fitteds or baseball hats. Boys at the gym love to wear hats when they work out and i love that they love to wear hats. Win win situation for everyone involved right?
A great smile. So obsessed with smiles. If when he smiles i smile its a good thing. I so approve. along with beautiful arms. Two favorite things on a guy right here.
Playing hard to get usually works. But only at the beginning. I'm a pretty competetive person and i like a challenge just as much as the next person. However if the guy changes his name and moves then hes prob not just playing hard to get rather he thinks youre a stalker...just a thought
hahahaha this is the funniest thing ever. i love it & i love vnecks.
Semi know how to dress. Im not talking dressing better than me or anything but have some care please like good shoes. Its weird but ive always like high socks and like nikes or jordans, like shoes like that. the whole lax bro look. i kinda dig it.
wearing church clothes, like ties and button ups. yesss.
make me laugh. Not that hard to do.
oh and please like sports.
Added bonuses:
Speak a different language (SPANISH) but knowing asl would be cool, like to cook, love to dance (you dont even have to dance well, just go for it and dont be embarrassed) be romantic, serenade me through singing or guitar actually just play an instrument in general wow, pay attention to me, lovee blue eyes and dark hair, etc
hi, stop touching me on my amazing weekend.
This weekend was amazing but full of unwanted touching, pushing and throwing.
Not to mention crowds and crowds of people and lovely mosh pits.
Good thing i'm not claustraphobic or anything because this weekend really wasnt ideal for those people.
On Friday Annalisa, Trevor, Trevin, Isaiah, Enowah and I went up to Salt Lake for a party.
It was the biggest silly string party, so big in fact that its going in the Guiness Book of World Records.
Awesome huh.
They gave away money, free food and had an awesome DJ all night long.
Great music, great friends and great fun.
However,
I was practically in a mosh pit for the first few hours. It was all safe fun until the DJ would yell throw your hands in the air and jump. I actually yelled no, although im sure my pityful little screams were barely heard.
I put my arms around me trying to create a safe zone but being 5'4 and having everyone around me at least a head taller, this did little to no good. Actually my arms hurt really bad now.
A couple times boys just ran into me and i would straight up push them and when they turned around i shrugged my shoulders as if i had no idea who pushed them. whoops.
Then came the dangerous part when $$$ was shot out of these cannons and everyone would scramble to get them. At the end of the night i got $15 or so bucks. sweetness. However i hit an all time low when i was knocked over and instead of worrying that i was gonna end up on the news as the girl who got trampled at some party, the only thought running through my head was you need to get that dollar bill before someone else. However the boys were very nice for this split second and helped me up, thank you. Actually boys at this party were prob nice than most other parties because they would apologize for bumping into you when they were actually paying attention to their surroundings, which was not often.
The weather was a little cold but way nice and there was pretty sweet music playing. It was pretty amusing because the hill was muddy and people were sliding everywhere. We went right down to the center of it all and when they counted down and threw chalk you could barely breathe but it was such a cool thing to see! I'm so glad i got to experience it because for $3 i had a whole day of fun. I recommend everyone go once.

On the way home we swung by Annalisas to pick up her two sisters Cassidy and Mckenna.
In the morning we got up and made a huge french toast breakfast for all the boys before the Festival of Colors and it was so yummy :)
At around 10 we headed to Spanish Fork to go to the Festival of Colors, an Indian Festival that celebrates God and happens once a year. On the way we stopped and bought white shirts. Once we got there it was crazy, almost everyone was in light/white colors and as we were walking up people would just throw chalk on you. Umm we havent even taken a before picture yet, can you please stop? And if you do insist on throwing colors in my face could you at least pick a good color like yellow or pink that compliments my hair? Please be a little bit more considerate next time. But people dont really listen. We bought some chalk and took tons of pictures. I even ran into my cousin jeff and several people from the ward.

The new *boys in town who just came on the scene
Theres the athletes- Hey remember that date we went on when you had your phone out the whole time because you were checking the score of the Lakers game like every 2 minutes..Yeah cool me too. Remember when I was unimpressed and stopped liking you? You probably dont remember that part actually...whoops. "So what do you like to do?" "I really just like sports..." Ok this boy cant only like sports..lets try something else. "Do you like the beach?" "i like playing football on the beach..."Boy was i wrong, the boy only talks, thinks and cares about sports. Well i could see a promising future for us...if i looked like a football. Such a shame. The beginning of the date went great when we were both so stubborn and opened the car door for eachother and you were funny when i grabbed the door for you and my room mates date tried to walk through and you pushed him and told him to go through his dates door. Remember the part of the date when they had you get on your knee and you were like woah its only the first date haha and then i had to sit on your knee and you just got off your mission but you were so cute about it and put your arm around me, kinda awkwardly but it was adorable. Maybe if we could talk about other things besides sports or maybe if i dressed in only basketball jerseys we'd be together...sorry but im not willing to make such sacrifices in fashion
The Scholar- You like country music? Hey me too! Youre attractive? Hey me too! oh i mean...How come everyone keeps saying you like me but you havent asked me on a date? Oh because you are at school 24 hours a day. I mean its cool youre super focused on school but really...I love that youre in my FHE group and we get along so well and you give me a lot of attention and you get jealous when i was looking at that bowler in the other lane but it was only because he was really good at getting strikes okay. Nothing else. Its cute that you always ask people where i am if im not at FHE or church or things of that nature. Not that im innactive okay, i was sick...I worry that you, like the athlete, only have one real thing you care...although its a pretty good thing to be concerned about. Maybe if we go on a date i could see where things will go...
The southern belle-NO we are not having a DTR. I guess this is kinda my fault. I shouldnt have jokingly said i like you in front of my room mate but you shouldnt have gotten all serious and asked if i was joking. I guess my jokes arent funny.. This is slightly uncomfortable now. You told me we could make it work if i wanted but i didnt know what i wanted. We've always had this teasing friendship but i think we both had crushes on eachother. I promise ill stop asking you to hold my hand ;) But really you and i fight like an old married couple. I love fighting with you dont get me wrong, prob because were both so stubborn and my room mates all thought we were gonna date but i guess not. I love that when you dont hear what i said and you say what and i go huh what? it drives you crazyyy. You absolutely hate it. You also have a great smile, seriously one of the cutest smile ever. You shake your head at everything i say and i know you find me amusing or ridiculous, whichever you prefer...I feel like we were inseperable for a while because you were always at my apartment. Also that one time you complimented my eyes was adorable too although i dont know if you remember. This is very sportatic but i just have a thread of thoughts on you. You also smell good. Ok moving on.
The baby- I loved hanging out with you when i came home for break. We've been friends for years. Going on 4 years now i think. That night you tried every trick in the book so i would hook up with you but im obviously smarter than you because nothing worked. At the end of the night you sat back and shook your head and said wow, i knew you were a tease but i didnt know you were this big of a tease and you put your fist out for me to pound it. really. do i look like a boy? Was this you saying you give up? i have no clue what that even means. All i do know is that i come home in less than two months and ill be hearing from you soon. If i wasnt 2 years older than you who knows how things would have turned out? oh yeah me. Nothing would have happened.
Gym Hotties- theres like 5 of you. The brody jenner look a like who makes my hours at the gym fly by and the tall guy who is way tan and looks good in anything, oh and did i mention he wears hats...every single time he works out? The problem with you guys is i think youre too into yourself to even notice someone of the opposite sex but maybe its the total opposite because you are so busy making sure people are looking at you and your oversized muscles that you arent super absorbed. I still have hope for mr tan because hes always looking at me but its prob bc he thinks im looking at him. You know that whole awkward thing when youre looking at someone and you think theyre looking at you but they think youre looking at them so theyre looking at you? yeah it could be that. These gym hotties are usually surrounded by flocks of really pretty girls at the gym and youre curious how he knows all these people? Has he paid them off? Does he work there? because theres no way he can really be that popular...can he?
The hot comedian- So lately i've been on a baking kick and today i wanted to make rice krispy treats and i asked you to help and you said sure and i honestly dont think anyone has ever looked so good making rice krispy treats. I honestly wish I had pictures of this. You got all serious and rolled up your sleeves and tucked your tie in your shirt(because you were still in your church clothes, and boy did you look good). You knew exactly what to do and were so nice and i was trying to pour soap and i was struggling and you were laughing and i love it when you laugh at me, not even with me at me, oh well. And they came out great and you gave me all the credit and then i tried making a batch all on my own and i accidentally mixed the marshmellows with the rice krispies and you laughed some more and then helped me pick them all out and then my room mate made a joke about how its like at the movies when you reach in and grab a piece of popcorn and your fingers touch and i said um that never happens and then i reached in and you being you went for the same piece and then said ohhh and backed into the wall and made your eyes all big haha. It was so funny, you were acting like it made you fall in love with me. I honestly love the way you make me laugh but unlike some guys its never because youre mean or making fun of someone, its just good humor. I dont see anything happening, nor do i want anything to happen? Youre just so darn goodlooking and hilarious.
here ya go :)
