That is all great news! I am so happy & happy for you! I hope you continue to be healthy & feel great!!! My teachers are pretty awesome! My Human Relations teacher is hilarious! He laughs about everything I love all my classes so far! I know you will have so much fun at that concert!

Backstages passes AND front row tickets!! Wow If you meet him, say hello for me..his future personal chef! LoL just kidding ;P I hope you get to go and I know you'll have a great time! I'm so excited for school tomorrow, I feel like the same Mel that started a year ago I'm really excited to meet my new teachers. I'll tell you how my day went when I get home tomorrow Take care sweetheart!

Aww that's awesome! I say some prayers that you are able to go I'm glad that things are starting to get better for you If you do go to the gig, will you let me know how it goes? David & I are through. He ended up being a jerk...just used me & that's it. I feel like such an idiot, but it'll be okay. He didn't offer me intellectual conversation anyway! LoL I start my new term on Tuesday and I'm really excited! I have 5 classes: Oral Communications, Human Relations, Nutrition, Intro to Baking & Pastry, and Western Regional Restaurant..which means I'll be in the student-run restaurant starting August 23! I'm really excited! Well I hope everything goes well for you sweetie Chin up!

I've been stressed, but I thankfully get a week off of school before I start my new classes! It's okay hun! Aww I'm sorry that you caught a virus! I hope you're starting to feel better though!! I always keep you in my thoughts & prayers I'm going camping July 30-August 4 with my son, Adam, and David! Other than that, things are the same around here. Take care of yourself hun I love hearing from you, but your health is more important than how often we get to talk I really hope things turn around for you quite soon! Hang in there sweetie Love, your sis in the USA

I think that's awesome that the Mika names are their show names I did have a great night with Aiden. He fell asleep half way through Finding Nemo (he's watched it before) so I put in Return of the King. I'm a bit obsessed with the LOTR movies hahaha. I'll have to email you pics of my garnishes I made for class! I did it for extra marks & now I have a B+ in Garde Manger class Well hun, I hope you've had a great week, and I hope this coming week is also great! :hugove:

Thanks for the heads up! I'm sorry for such a late reply. I have 2 weeks left of this term and a whole bunch of projects are due I do agree with you...I think you're old enough for a boyfriend, and certainly would be a lady & be responsible about the things that your father would probably worry about! LoL I also think you're old enough to choose your own courses for university, but I think I already talked about that before LoL. You are a very mature young lady & I'm very impressed with your manners & at least how you seem to be

Oh my, shoes & accessories are the best part of shopping!! LoL I, myself, am a huge fan of earrings & rings lol. I've lost count of how many I have, but my best estimate would be about 130 pairs of earrings, and about 50 rings. Haha and all are silver of course, I look horrible in gold! LoL I hope you have such a blast in Scotland That stinks about not being able to have a boyfriend. Maybe your father is just trying to be protective, and also might want you to focus on your studies? haha I'm not agreeing with him, I'm just trying to think of his motives I saw your pictures with your horses I think that's so cute that your horses have Mika-themed names Well, today is Pizza Sunday. Once a month on a Sunday, I make mushroom & pepperoni pizza, and eat it and watch a movie with Aiden The pizza is smelling like it's done, so I should go. My tummy has a rumbly! LoL I hope you have a great day hun!

Today in school we got out early, so I decided I'd go to David's house & surprise him. Well....he wasn't home So I just went back home and decided to lay down on the living room couch. Just when I opened my eyes, I saw someone walking down my driveway and it freaked me out!! But it was David!!! He surprised me He had been running around all day doing errands, and he wanted to stop by and see if I was home from school yet Aww...I thought that was so sweet!! Haha well I hope you have a great weekend hun! Take care, Mel P.S. Yes, we are long lost sisters that will meet one day!

Both your dresses are beautiful I think the blue one says "after party" more than the white, but that's just my opinion. I'll be happy for you for your 3 month break from school! I think it'll do you good to not have school work to worry about for a while Thanks for the compliments on my cake! I tried to make it look as cool and pretty as I could, without knowing too many icing techniques, but I'm glad it turned out nicely I will be finished with school the end of February 2012, and then my graduation will be in June 2012 I'm so glad that your classmates are supporting you Well, I hope wherever you go for holiday, that you have a blast!

Here's a picture of David & I from Saturday night We went out dancing!

Here's some pics of the cake I made for the bridal shower.

Oh hunny I'm so sorry to hear that you fainted & have all sorts of marks on your body I hope you can manage to keep your spirits up I'm glad your brother will be with you though I did take pics of the cake I made, and I sent you some of them in an email, so hopefully you'll get them soon I haven't actually started my job yet, but it'll start mid June. Last night I got to go out dancing with some of my close girl friends and David surprised me and showed up He bought us some drinks and he danced with me some /emoticons/converted_smile1.gif" alt=":)" srcset="/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="16" height="16" /> I really do hope you feel better soon, and I hope you find your ray of sunshine each and every day Love ya hun! Take care, Mel

Aww I'm sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well, but I'm glad to hear you had the transplant!! I hope you start to feel better soon hun Today I was pretty busy! I made a cake for a bridal shower at my church, and then after that I went to where my new job is going to be, and the owner trained me how to run the grills, the smoker, and how he grills & flavors things. (And then we got to eat!!) On Tuesday, I will be part of a catering event that my class has to do for school. It's to welcome possible new students. We feed them, and then Chef Bob gives them a tour of all the kitchens I went to one of these a little over a year ago, and so it's just neat that now I'm cooking for it! Well sweetie, take care of yourself & feel better soon!

Hey hun! I just wanted to check in and see if everything's okay? I've been really busy with school & cooking events, but I wanted to drop by & say hello I hope all is well over there, and I hope you have a great day off tomorrow

Thursday night I'm going over to David's house and cooking for he and his mom I'm making chicken cordon bleu with a hollandaise sauce, sour cream & chive duchess potatoes, and corn on the cobb I think in a week or two, I'm going to invite them over for a game night I would like to have more one on one time with just David, but I realize his mother is getting old (she had him when she was 41!) and she's all the family he's got, so I invite them both and try to include her too Oh! I finally finished all my spring cleaning! Just in time too....it was in the 80s today It was hot, but beautiful so I'm not going to complain! I love the hot weather way more than the cold weather!! LoL Well my dearest friend, I hope you have a wonderful day at school tomorrow

I'm so glad that you get to experience such great opportunities! I guess because my family never traveled too much, maybe to visit family but that's it. Not me. I want to explore the world & experience new places/scenes and learn to cook with local ingredients from each culture! I really want to try a fresh dragon fruit! They look so intriguing in my text book, and it says they taste sort of like a kiwi or melon, and I love both of those! Haha for service yesterday, I wore a dress that's white, blue, & black floral with a black sash around the waist. It's actually quite pretty, and I wore my strappy shoes too! They are the only shoe I own that has a high heal! But thankfully I didn't fall lol. David's mom, Carol, said I looked so pretty in my dress! LoL David didn't say anything in church, but I did get a huge hug from him, and caught him looking at me out of the corner of my eye so perhaps I'll have to wear another dress of mine sometime?

First of all, I am SO COMPLETELY HAPPY that your uncle is a match for you I prayed, and so did my family & best friend I'm so glad your classmates are being courteous and respectful I'm just so happy to hear some really good news in the health department of your update Second, Scotland? I would LOVE to go there someday! Well really, I want to go to Ireland to look up some of my older ancestors! I have a lot of Irish heritage in my blood line, so I want to go see what Ireland is all about I'm sure you will have so much fun! And as far as making friends, I'm sure you will find quite a few there You're very sweet & easy to get along with, so I'm sure it won't be a problem....but I do understand your concerns. I get nervous when I'm in a new surrounding, but after a day or two I start to get a little more relaxed with the new environment.

Aww I'm sorry to hear you've been sick! I hope you feel better soon I had my first catering event last weekend It went very well, and I have a few more events planned for May Thank you for asking I have a lot of cleaning to do, so I better run lol. I'll talk to you later!

Hello my little bunny! I am doing very well, thank you How are you doing these days? Anything new with you hun?

I'm glad to hear that you've started school again, and that everyone missed you I'm sure you'll get used to the routine after a little while I start school again on Tuesday, and I have mixed feelings about it. LoL My mother will be going back to work next week, so she's doing much better. I love my mom, but it will be nice to come home after school and have a few hours to myself! She's excited that this Sunday is Easter because it's the only time of year that I wear a dress! Hahaha I am such a tomboy it's not funny. It's so weird...I own 4 really cute dresses, but I hate wearing them! LoL I'm not sure why I bought them, but they are there in case of a special occasion I suppose. Usually I'll just wear black dress pants & a pretty top to church, but on Easter Sunday I always wear a dress, because our family traditionally dresses up very nicely for church Well sweetheart, I hope you have a great day at school tomorrow

Yesterday I had a really nice day with David. We've had our ups and downs, but I still feel so happy around him Then today I spent the whole day with Adam! We saw a movie, I made him pancakes, and we walked around this park near him I am almost finished with all my cleaning

My first event was this past Sunday I'll email you pics. I was only able to take 3 because I was so busy! I couldn't feed those people fast enough! I made sour cream coffee cakes (mini), dark chocolate cupcakes with peanutbutter icing, corn bread muffins, bacon wrapped chicken bits, spinach & feta pastry straws, mozzerella/dill/garlic pastry straws, and deviled eggs I only had a handful of cupcakes and cornbread left over! I've lost more weight too I'm down 17 pounds now My mother is feeling better, and she's back to giving me a hard time about every little thing I do. This is my vacation week from school & she is stressing me out! lol Oh well. How are you doing hun? How have you been?

Oh I'm okay. I've been quite busy & stressed these past several days, so I apologize. I'm glad to hear that you'll be able to attend school again I pray that you find a donar soon, and I'll ask my parents & Adam to pray as well! As far as having a bust, speaking from a gal who has a little too much bust, it hurts my back. I don't think surgery is necessary, but jumping jacks are not fun..nor is any type of exercise because it hurts my back...even with a sports bra. You could just be like my one friend. She "blossomed" around age 22 She was always so thin and hardly had any bust all throughout school. Then around that age...BOOM! She just filled out and had curves all of a sudden! I used to say "Aww April, you're growing up!" And she'd laugh lol. Blazers & skirts sounds boring. But then again, my chef uniform for school is quite boring too!

Well hun, what did your test results say? I said some prayers. I'm sorry for not writing as much....I've been very stressed with school, taking care of the house, and this event for church this Sunday! I will be happy when this week is over! I hope things are going well for you. As far as hating your figure, there are clothes that I think you could totally rock out like skinny jeans, a long tshirt, some black flat shoes, and a stylish hat! That would rock with your figure, and give you that awesome girl edge to it. Maybe that's not a style you like, but that's okay! There are ways with clothes to make your body look closer to what you would prefer. I personally think you have the perfect body to be a ballerina

Today was a pretty good day. I made one of those apple birds for my sister, and then I went grocery shopping for my mom & ended up locking my keys inside my car! Luckily my best friend Adam was just getting off work (he's the manager of the delicatessan) and so he drove me back to my house for the spare key, and took me to my car lol. This seems to be a frequent thing with me! Hahaha I should probably have 5 spare keys made and hand them out to different friends & family around the area Well I hope you have a great day tomorrow
