Posted by Crystal, but in the words of Jamie:

Forced to do this by Crystal... but also typed by Crystal...

This is Jamie Bloom. Well, this is my first time on the blog, so I'm not quite sure what to say or how this goes. My summer vacation has been great. I am currently residing in Hesperia, CA with my dear sister Crystal. I have spent my summer accomplishing many things on my list of things to do:

1. Go to Rachelle's wedding in Arizona. Caught her bouquet. Duh.

2. Go see Wicked

3. Go to Rachelle's wedding reception in CA. Build river in backyard.

4. Go see Zach in Hollywood

5. Wakeboard AMAP (as much as possible)

6. Hold my friend heather's hand while she is in labor

7. Build cabinet doors with my mom

8. Paint the fence

9. Be awesome

But the summer is not over yet... there is still time for:

1. Houseboat vacation

2. Read Breaking Dawn

3. Bike from Provo to Hesperia

4. Graduation August 15

Life Through Wicked Eyes

So for those of you who want the scoop, Justin is still in the picture. And what a cute picture it is :) He is wonderful. 

And after all -- Now that we've met one another... It's clear we deserve each other . . . He thinks I am so beautiful. I think he's wonderful! And we deserve each other don't you see, this is our chance? We deserve each other.

But there is one small problem. He has to go back to school in the fall and I have to stay here. 

Say there's no future for us as a pair . . . and though I may know, I don't care . . . 

Well, that's the Wicked scoop for now. It's someone else's turn to post. I'm turning into Miss Bloom the Blogging Bore!

Unemployed no Longer

This just in. I have a job. I will be teaching Spanish and Math at a new middle school here in Hesperia. Isn't it a lovely desert? Imagine this with a school surrounded by some houses and that will be the scenery for my life come August. 

Hooray for paychecks!

I'm wicked through and through.

Wickedly awesome.

Forever a Bridesmaid, Never a Bride

So, this past weekend was my little, yes, little sister's wedding. It was amazing. She was truly a princess. She was very calm and collected the whole weekend and especially on the day of. She had everything organized, with a lot of help from my mother, but it went well. I hope one day I can be a calm bride, but most of all, just a bride, right?. Here's a picture of all of the sister's together on her day. From left to right: Missy, Katie, Sunni, and Me.

P.S. I did go to Brazil in June, which was in Alicia's words, AMAZING. I will do a seperate post for that one. I love you all.

In the words of Jennifer Suzanne Mabray..

I just got a letter from Jenn. Man, I love that girl. She wrote some truly profound words about the Sisterhood and asked me to post them so y'all know how much she loves you. So, here's to Jenn. And here's to the Sisterhood... .

"So, I've been thinking about the Sisterhood and how really we are a Sisterhood. There isn't anything we wouldn't do for each other. The more our lives go on, the older we get (if you will), the more experiences we have, the more growing up we do, the more I realize how precious our time was together. I'm so glad we decided to play Rummikub instead of studying for finals. I'm so glad we had so many girl's nights. I'm glad we made time to have seances (did we ever figure out how to spell that?!). I wish we could do it more, but life does have to move on. We all have to experience hard things. We may never know what the other has to go through, but if there is someone who will try to know it is each other, right? We have a bond through thick and thin, we are in this thing called life together. There is nothing I wouldn't do for you girls. I just have so much love in my heart for all of you!!!! You are some of my most precious friends. You all have my most precious memories."

And there you have it folks. Amen to that. I love y'all too. And I'm so not pregnant :)
