A Fun Weekend

Okay, so this post is gonna let you in on my awesome weekend! Seriously, it was great and very eventful. First off, Friday night was my good friend Angela's wedding reception! I have known Angela since I was 7, I was her roommate last year, and I was there through the whole process of her meeting Brad, them dating, and getting engaged! It was so wonderful! Her reception was BEAUTIFUL. It was located at the Tahitian Gardens and the set up was just great. I went with my old roommate Britt and we met our other old roommate Marisa there, and met new friends while we were there. Angela was just gorgeous in her wedding dress and Brad looked just perfect at her side in his white suit. Anyway, the reception was very elegant, the food was DELICIOUS, they had every kind of cake you can think of, and the music and dancing was very entertaining. It was really nice to be able to catch up with old friends and be able to share that day with Angela. Congratulations Angela and Brad!
Me, Britt, Angela, and Marisa

After the reception, Haylee and I had to get over to Barnes and Noble to pick up our copy of Breaking Dawn!
The doors opened at 12:01am, but we decided to get there around 11pm so we could get a spot in line so we wouldn't be there TOO long. :) There were so many people there of many shapes, sizes, ages, and gender. Haha It was kind of funny seeing some boys there ALONE buying the book for THEMSELVES. I didn't think guys were really into those books, but it made me happy that they were! It was fun to see many people dressed up and seeing people act crazy and randomly scream out "Edward!" every now and then. Haylee and I finally made it inside the store around 1:10am, and once we got inside the line moved very quickly and we were able to get out and go home so we could start reading! By the way, I am only on page 328 right now, so DON'T TELL ME ANYTHING!!! Seriously, I will be very mad at you for a very long time. But so far, I LOVE IT!

Last night, Robbie and I went up to Salt Lake for some Cheesecake Factory and IMAX theater! We got up there about 8pm and the wait for Cheesecake Factory was about 55-75 minutes!! So we put our name on the list and went over to the Jordan Commons to pick up our tickets for "The Dark Knight" in IMAX! I had never been to that theater before and never seen a movie in IMAX before. I had never been to the Cheesecake Factory before either, so that night was full of excitement on my part! We drove back to The Cheesecake Factory after we got our tickets and tried to decide what we wanted to order while we waited for our name to be called. It is a pretty difficult thing to do, especially for me since I am a pretty bad decision maker, when the menu is like 27 pages long! But I finally made a choice and it was delectable. We shared the avocado egg rolls (amazing by the way) and then I ordered the chicken and avocado sandwich and Chocolate Oreo Mudslide cheesecake. YUMMY! We were running short of time so we took our cheesecake to go and ate it at the theater while we watched the movie! The movie was AWESOME, it really didn't feel like 3 hours to me cause I was so absorbed the whole time wondering what the Joker was going to come up next. Heath Ledger was AMAZING in his role and did a very great job. Yes, he was pretty scary and I definitely had nightmares, but he filled it perfectly. A MUST SEE!

Megan Ishoy,
This is Joel. I didn't read this entire post because (I'm sorry) i just don't have the attention span. I still love you and think you're great. Anyway, I'm writting because your old roommate Marissa is a friend of mine. We took an acting class together a long time ago. Also I want to say hi because I've been thinking about my old friend Megan. We should get together some time. Love ya. Talk to you later.
