Today I went to lunch with my friends Grace and Jane. They're hilarious and I can tell that in fifty years, they'll be 19 times funnier. That's just the kind of people they are.
I answered to prom today using the children from my daycare. Pretty proud of my ingenuity.
Yesterday I hung out with my boss outside of work for a full three hours. Weird thing? We didn't run out of things to talk about or have any awkward silences. And I told her all my high school drama. She's the best.
I've stopped wearing makeup. Takes too much time and effort. Not worth it. But I did buy a new mascara today for when I go back to my heathen ways. Switched from Blackest Black to Very Black. So if my eyelashes look a little less black, that's why.
The weather was way nice today. Can't wait for summer!

Today Emily feels....
"EGGS"CITED!
I'm going to prom! With one of my best friends and we'll for sure have an awesome time!
WORRIED
I'm going to prom! With my sister's ex-boyfriend and my dad will for sure say something awkward....
PERPLEXED
I accidentally washed a small bottle of hand sanitizer with my clothing and now my clothes smell slightly like Bath & Body Works Fresh Lemon HandBac. But the bottle never opened....
ANXIOUS
I auditioned for choir (A'Capella and *GULP* Xela) and while it wasn't AWFUL, I didn't nail it either. Now I have to wait for those results, as well as for my ACT score. Drat.
PENSIVE
Have you ever been friends with someone and it feels like you've known them forever even if you've only known them since like October/Novemberish? Not in a creepy "We met in the pre-existence and decided to be best friends on earth!" way, more in a "We automatically fit together and understand each other" way.
THOUGHTFUL
Have you ever been friends with someone for a long time and it feels like you've only known each other for a short time? Because maybe you don't fully understand each other's ways of thinking, or what makes the other person offended/ticked/hurt? Not a necessarily bad thing, just strange.
MEDITATIVE
Have you ever been friends with someone for a LONG period of time (like say, since birth) and now they're going off to college next year and while you want to be, and mostly are, so happy for them for getting into a great college and receiving an incredible scholarship, you can't be fully happy for them because all you can think about is how much you're going to miss them next year?
But mostly....
HAPPY
Because the sun is shining, I have no AP Calc homework, and life is just swell.

Let me tell you a story......
Once upon a time there was a girl named Emily. Emily had a blog with many riveted readers. One month, Emily began a 30 day challenge, not missing a day for 16 days (that's over half, folks). Then, her computer FREAKED OUT causing her to not be able to complete said challenge. It was a rough life. Every time Emily tried to log onto her blogger account and blog about her incredible life and the amazing people in it, her computer informed her that www.blogger.com did not exist (which we all know a big fat lie). Anyway, Emily was traumatized for many days UNTIL the afternoon of Sunday March 20th (20 days after her 30 day challenge was supposed to have finished) she discovered that she could access her blog via her mother's laptop! YAY!! And now you once again must read this blog out of a sense of obligation, most likely because I follow your blog. Sucker.
Anyway! Here's what has happened in the life of Emily D Regis since the day of February 14th, 2011. (Also, you may note that the pictures used on this blog can all be found on Facebook because now I apparently can't blog on my mac, meaning I cannot access my iPhoto pics. Sorry.)
I got a brother-in-law! (A real one, not one like Jane's)
I went on my very first cruise (To Mexico, which I did not like. Apparently I'm a city girl)
I went to the FCCLA Fashion Show, which was HILARIOUS. (Picture courtesy of Tiffany Sue Photography. See more here.)
I went to my very first Stake Dance (which was a lot more fun than I had anticipated. And yes, I am dressed like a nerd. Geek is the new chic.)
AND Tomorrow I audition for choir. SUPER NERVOUS! I'm auditioning for A'Capella of course, and then I really really hope I can make it into Xela :) But we'll see. I'm singing "A Change In Me" from Beauty and the Beast.
And that's basically all that has happened in my life.
***ALSO: If I didn't mention you in my 16 day challenge, I PROMISE that it wasn't because I don't love you. In a few days, I'll probably post the list of names of who I had planned for the remaining two weeks. Promise that you really have impacted my life!***

Day #16
Today, in honor of Valentine's Day, I'm going to blog about someone special. I don't really know him that well (or at all, if I'm being honest.) But he has most definitely influenced me. This boy, laides and gents, is the infamous Parker Lemon.
My crush began last year when we attended the same school and I was friends with his younger brother. It sort of grew to an obsession.....but that's another story.
Anyway, here's why I love Parker Lemon.
He's super super nice. He's always smiling. He's always making others feel included. He humors little sophomores who stalk him.
He's really cute. Not in a Taylor Lautner/Channing Tatum kind of way. More like a you-can-tell-he's-a-great-person-so-he-appears-to-be-super-attractive kind of way.
He has the voice of an angel. Last year, me and my friend Tyler {who you may remember from day #9} used to ditch Chemistry with our teacher's permission and go to Chamber Choir so we could listen to the boys we liked sing. One time the Chamber and Phoenix boys were singing the BEAUTIFUL song Bui-Doi from the musical Miss Saigon. Anyway, Parker had a solo in that song and that particular day, he looked right at me when he sang it. It was a life-changing experience.
Parker really has no idea who I am, but he's just such a good guy, that he still wrote in my yearbook because I asked him to.
Here's what he wrote:
"One thing that has impressed me every time I've seen you is your smile. You have a sincere, very pleasant look on your face eery time and it really brightens my day. Thank you for that :) -Parker Lemon"
SEE??!! He even wrote a personal message to someone he didn't know AT ALL!! He's perfect. Right now he's serving the Lord in Hartford, Connecticut. Good luck, Elder Lemon!
This is a picture of all my Parker Lemon memorabilia:
A valentine his little brother sent me today at school. In case you can't read his handwriting, it says "To: Emily 'Future Wife' Lemon. From: Parker Windfield Lemon". I know it's not really from him, but it made my day.
A pen he kicked in the hallway that I may or may not have picked up.
A little slip of paper that he wrote his name on that my friend may have found in his English class and given to me.
Parker Lemon, thank you for being such an incredible person.

Day #15
This is Hanna Cutler. She is gorgeous.
She is also super super funny and charismatic and incredibly talented at singing, dancing, and acting.
Basically I would hate her if she wasn't so nice.
Also, she was in my Sweetheart's Dance group last night (which was totally awesome, by the way) and didn't make fun of my dancing ONCE. That just proves she's an angel.
She also is really easy to talk to and has the prettiest smile in the world. And she totally rocks bangs. They look great on her.
Hanna, you're swell.
*ALSO: Fun fact for ya, kids. THIS IS MY 100TH POST!! Happy birthday to my blog! Or. . .you know what I mean.*

Day #14
This is my sister Katherine Anne Regis. Isn't she pretty? She's hilarious and so comfortable with who she is. She introduces me to sweet anime like Full Metal Alchemist, Inuyasha, and Ouran High School Host Club. She reads like a maniac and always lends me awesome books like Life Expectancy and introduces me to great series like Maximum Ride and Zodiac P.I. She's also super generous and the best oldest sister I could ask for! She's super super smart and beautifully quirky. Love you Kate!

Day #13
Today I'm blogging about someone who I haven't known for very long, but I love her like I've known her a lifetime. Ladies and Gentleman! Please give a hand for........
RILEY HUEFNER!!
She's absolutely gorgeous {for real, every guy is in love with her!!} and she has a killer personality. She's witty and sly and so clumsy she makes me look graceful {just a joke, Ri}. Anyway, we met a couple of months ago when she transferred to Bountiful and we sort of became friends instantly {thanks to T.J.}. Riley, you are beautiful and unique and definitely a keeper!
