She Lives!!!!

Beware.
this post has no structure.
endless ramblings.
a bunch of junk thrown together into a jumbled mess.
if you would like to read it,
please,
proceed with caution.

I am sorry for my absence these past few weeks.
my computer has been having problems.
Fear not though,
they are now fixed!
kinda.

Where to begin...
How about Thanksgiving?
A time for giving thanks,
eating til you pass out,
watching football til you can't keep your eyes open,
eat some more,
ya'll know how it works.
This time of year also brings to my family the beloved family pictures.
joy.

So ladies and gentlemen.
Here they are,
The Laycock Clan!!!

These are the Men.
(the boy cousins)
minus one. he was being a stinker.
Here are the Girls.
This is my family.
This little girl is my sister. she's okay.
most of the time.
This is us. I will have to share more stories about them.
because they are quite a bunch.

Here is another look at "the obsession's of Bailey"

Yes that is my wall,
if you think thats a lot of pictures,
just scroll down a bit.

Yes that is my OTHER wall.

like i have said a few times before, i have a huge spot in my heart that is consumed with pictures.
& if you're my friend & we have a picture together,
it is most likely on my wall somewhere.
[this wall is also great for playing i-spy]
i always feel like the little old lady at family reunions that is constantly taking pictures.
you know who im talking about,
ya'll have one in your family.

Now some of you might want to know what i call this little obsession.
i call it:
"i-like-pictures-on-my-wall-despite-the-fact-that-i-feel-them-watching-me-constantly-i-like-them-and-if-you-don't-like-it-don't-come-into-my-room"

Now, last weekend i had the wonderful oppertunity to be friendless.
All of my friends are in Cross Country and last weekend they went to footlocker,
(that is in California for all of you who are unaware)
They always get way excited and are always talking about it.
i just sit and listen and wish that i could go.
but i cant.
they spend the weekend in a hotel,
go to the happiest place on earth,
DISNEY LAND!!!
and get to be with eachother.
while i still on my behind and wish i could be there.
sitting on my behind on the beach,
or a rollercoaster.
Because i didnt go with them.
(like every other year for the past 4 years.)
i got to go see my grandma's cousin.
& eat her wonderful soup.
while i had a pleasent view of Utah State University.
the place i will hopefully call my home for the next little while.
i also got to go see the lights at temple square
and eat delicious german food.

Another thing i did was homework.
so, you know that assignment that you work so hard on that you are scared to turn it in because you feel as if you are turning in your life?
well, this was it.
it was an art project.
there it is.
good bye life.


Alright now that this is over,
i have something i would like to say...
This feels kinda weird,
but to my viewers out there, whoever you might be.
if you have any questions at all that you would like to ask me i would absolutely love to answer them!!
I mean anything!!
it would really help me get this blog going!!
just post a comment :)




November 17, 2011

I would.

Part One:

I have an English Class in school,
obivously.
& i had to do a project on Africa.
& present it.
I chose to do mine on African Art.

now in my world:
Dance=Art
its simple.
so what else to do but get everyone off their butts,
crank some tunes &
DANCE!!!
just dance :)

Yes, I made my whole class play "Just Dance"
as my presentation.
it will go down in history books as the
best.
presentation.
ever.

Part Two:
Here is another episode of
"Girl plus Broom"

this one dicloses nothing of any value.
absolute no sense.
& a smidge of insanity.

please enjoy.
and pradon my lack of focus.

i dont know exactly what was happening..
but apparently my escape plan will result in my death?
who knows.
i was rambling.
that happens a lot.
like i dont understand half the things i said.
& if i dont understand it...
i doubt you will.
work makes me a wee bit crazy
especially when you are really
the ONLY person in the new building.
its haunted.
i dont like it.

Sloppy Joe's Anyone?

Behold,
This is a wonderful time of year.
Sloppy Joe's a plenty.
Candy at every door.
the feeling of love
 & the stomach aches awaiting.

wait a minute.
Sloppy Joes??
yes.
SLOPPY JOES!!!
'tis a family tradition
to have anyone and everyone
over for sloppy joes on halloween night.
its not weird.
its unique.
Its Halloween.
[One of my personal favorite holidays.]
i mean whats better than knocking on a stangers door
& getting candy??
Free Candy!!

NOTHING!!!

This day was filled with much adventure.
Like i was the finale in an Elementary School Parade.
yeah thats right
the Finale!

Quote of the Day:
as the kindergarteners walked through the classroom wearing their costumes,
one looks to the another,
points at me,
and says,
"that's one big 5th grader."

Then i went Trick-r-Treating.
yes.
im old.
i know that.
but this time of year brings out the child in me.
I went to every house on my grandma's block.
twice.

now i have a hard time deciding things.
so.
my costume
or should i say costumeS.
were as follows:

School: Baseball player
After: Indian.

yeah there completely opposite things.
unless you think about it.
Indians.
Cleveland Indians.
Cleveland Indians are a baseball team.
therefore not a big difference.

I hope ya'll had a good time on halloween night!!

Oh The Weekends

its friday.
& you know what that means??
its the start of the long waited weekend.
Awe :)
it brings me so much joy!
Now these last few weekends have been beyond busy for me.
& so i thought i would share a little about them.
(sorry about the wait....if any of you were waiting that is....
you prolly werent because you have lives.)

Lets take a journey back to friday,
2 weeks ago.
(magical sound of wonder)

It started out with a field trip...
to cornbelly's...
With the Special Needs Kids!!



 
well crud.
i do not possess the ability to know how to rotate pictures on here...
so, bare with me until i gain that knowledge.
so please just tilt your head & pray that it wont get stuck that way.

Highlights of this trip:
1. i got all the kids lost in a corn maze.
2. i almost got stabbed by a pirate.
3. do they hire aliens to cut the maze for them??
4. i bounced on a big balloon.
5. danced to thiller....
& yeah thats about it.

Later that night...

See these people??
well we all rein from the place know as Clear Creek.

This is a place where in order to get a job here,
well,
you need to have something wrong with you.
mentally,
that is.
Really this group of people are absolutely insane!
& i LOVE it!!
(sadly no everyone was able to come....this is showing 6 outta the 28 people who work there.)
...
We went to the haunted forest.
& we were all scared....
not really.
i truely enjoy haunted things.
they dont scare me as much as i wish they did.
but these guys made it so much fun!

Saturday:
Now these people are a whole different experience.
see the one in yellow??
well this, this was her suprise birthday party.
We kidnapped her.
(kinda)
& took her to a place,
a wonderful,
magical,
perfect for an 18th birthday party....
you guessed it...

CHUCK E CHEESE!!!!
With tokens for everyone,
we dominated that place!...
for about a whole whooping
15 minutes.
 Then we left because we were slightly embarassed,
well only one of us was.
He will remain un-named.
So instead we went to Classic Skating
which was 10x better!


"Do you like what you see??"
& let me tell you all the people who saw us...
well,
"they liked what they saw :)"

Now skip ahead to next weekend.

It was a long weekend,
fall break.
to kick off that i went to state.
yes, state.
For CROSS COUNTRY!!!
whoo yay!!
i dont run.
i just consider myself their #1 fan :)
Boys: 1st Place!!!
Girls: 5th Place!!!
GO CAVEMEN!!!!!!


We went to a place after called
Chuck-a-rama.
or as we call it...
"Up Chuck and Cram it"
We ate till our Tum-Tum's had no room at all.
We went back to the high school
& we did a victory lap.
around the track.
with a football game in process.
holding up the trophy.
we were champions!!
i mean they were champions...
i got caught up in the moment.

Later that weekend
i hung out with this little lady.
my sister.
i think ill keep her around for a while.

Oh and i also made a video with some friends.
but its a work in progress.
when it is finished i will attempt to put it on here.

Now its the weekend
& this pretty much sums up what i will be doing.
(i stole this from my friends blog i hope she doesnt mind :))

Happy Weekend Everybody!!
go trick-or-treating or somethin'

It's Kind of a Funny Story...

Once Upon a Time on a Monday Night
two friends met together.
One Friend said to the Other,
"Im hungry lets go get some beto's."
They got into the car & headed off to the lovely restaurant.
now only one friend was getting something
the other had already eaten.
So.
she orders her food and they wait for the food to come.
there was only one car ahead of the girls
when something struck them.
they had forgotten their wallets...
This was a time of panic.
"what do i do?!?!?"
"Drive away as fast as you can!!"
so thats what they did.
"can we get arrested for this?!?"
"I dont know,
but i want my BURRITO!!!"
that was the sound that the people within hearing distance heard.
so as quick as lightening the girls drove back home to get the money
needed to get the food.
They drove back...
hesitating.
what would they say.
They reach the restaurant.
pull up to the drive through.
rolled down the window half way & said,
"um....*gulp* we were just here...and uh....
we ordered a burrito...
but,
we forgot our money.
so, we're back."
(please note that there were about 10 voice crackings in this process.)
"Come to the window."
they drove up slowly,
trying not to laugh at what had just happend.
they took the burrito
& drove away...
laughing.

Now as you can see,
these girls struggle
a lot.
its just a fact that they are willing to accept.
Hopefully.
cuz this kind of thing happens more then it should
in this neck of the woods.

Dance the Night Away

Homecoming was last weekend.
(please excuse this delay in blogging about it)
 It was awesome!

lets just say a MEGA transformation occured...

BEFORE....

AFTER...
yes.
i actually look like a girl.

Through out the night many events occured,
the first(& the funniest) was that my group almost got arrested.
no joke.
a man called the cops on us...
for taking pictures.
messed up a bit??
so in honor of our potential criminal record
 i made this lovely "wanted" poster.
"WANTED for having FUN!!"
Luckily we didnt have to spend the night in a jail cell.
hahahaha!
but just think about it...
"did you have fun at homecoming??"
"oh yeah!!"
"what did you do?"
"oh you know...got thrown in prison...the usual."
But besides that i had a great time &
danced my little heart out!
 & had a blast!!
but thats what you do at dances...
have fun!

Homecoming Anyone??


Once Upon A Time...(5 days ago, aka my birthday)
I just finished a very long and tiring day, all i wanted to do was go to sleep. BUT sadly that didnt happen for a little while. I had just laid down, my eye lids burning from the lack of sleep, when my phone buzzed, sending me into a state of fright. i sat up unwillingly, grabbing my phone. I looked at who was calling & didnt answer for two reasons...
1: i hate talking on the phone late at night
2: if it was really important they would call back
I ignored the phone call & resumed my position in my bed, within 30 seconds my phone goes off again. This time i answer.

".....hello?"
"can i come borrow your calculus book??"
*laugher in background*
"uh..sure."
"Okay i'll be there in 2 seconds!!"

I grabbed my calculus book, & sat outside on my front porch waiting for my friend to come get it.
As im sitting there enjoying the night air & the millions of stars above,
i see off in the distance three figures walking towards my house, i watch them walk all the way up to my neighbors tree when they stop dead in their tracks.
Two of them start backing away slowly,
(as if i cant see them already.)
while the other one come skipping up to my house, my friend that "needs to borrow my calculus book".
she attempts to act like nothing is going on, but i saw right through her little act...(she couldnt stop laughing & smiling so it was a dead give away)
She came up & told me she wanted to come into my house & see my room that she has seen a million times.
We stayed in my room for maybe 3-4 minutes when my doorbell rings.
a HUGE smile stretches across her face, dominating all other facial features.
I make the journey to my front door, each step making me wonder if i really want to answer the door or not...what is waiting for me?
If there is anything...
I peek my head through the window to see what fate awaits me...
To my surprise i saw...a child.
No.
A BABY!!
a legit BABY!!!
i slowly open the door, looking down at the adorable infant wrapped up in blankets & placed inside a basket.
(Note: this baby did not smile or blink the whole time i was looking at him. it was kinda creepy)
After admiring the little fella for a good 3 minutes, i noticed a sealed envolope addressed to me...
I opened it without hesitation.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!"
oh great...this person just gave me a baby...for my birthday.
I opened the card & read:
"Bailey-Don't be a BABY, come to homecoming with me!"
Phew.
I start to search for where the name of this mystery man's name might be.
i see next to the baby is a container of baby food...
crud.
i pick it up.
an overwhelming stench of chicken & somethin' nasty finds a home in my nostrils.
I took a deep breath through my mouth, filling my lungs & plunged my hand into the grainy substance.
i felt around trying to find anything that might be useful,
i feel a piece of fabric & pull it out.
"A"
wow. that was helpful...
after i retrieved all the letters i started to arrange them into a familiar name...
when i was almost done, a man i had never seen before runs up my walk-way & says,
"um...this is my child."
He picks up the baby & runs away.
It was EXTREMELY funny!
A fit of laughter filled the air between my friend & I.
I resumed my place in figuring out the jumbled letters in front of me.
After about 2ish minutes
i had it!!
i stood up, & patted myself on the back for a job well-done.
So...
Ladies & Gents,
THIS GIRL....IS GOING TO HOMECOMING!!! :)
