iPhones and Technology!

Okay so I just got a new iPhone 4.  I do realize that there have been updated versions of the iPhone, but it was a free upgrade!

So...me...with an iPhone...this could be interesting.

In case you don't know, I am the most technologically incompetent person I know!  Well, other than my grandparents I guess.  :)  This is my second touch-screen device and it is going to be fun!

Getting it activated was crazy!  But I finally did it!  And all by myself too!  It took me a little while to figure out how to use the text messaging and I'm still not quite sure how to call from my contact list (but I will figure it out, don't you worry!)

And what?!  I can now read the scriptures on my phone!!!  That is so awesome!!  I do realize that people have been doing that for a long time now...but I get to be cool and do it too! :)

And I can play Fruit Ninja...which might not be a good idea, because I really like that game...

March Update!

Okay so it's been a little while since I've written on here and so much has been happening in this little life of mine!  So here are a few highlights from this last month!

1. My older sister is having a baby!  In July!  I'm finally going to be an aunt!! 

2.  I didn't get the internship working for the Church History Department on the Joseph Smith Papers, but that's okay!  I've been applying for all kinds of other jobs too!

3.  I get to go to Washington D.C. and Gettysburg this next week and I'm really excited!  Going to Gettysburg has been a dream of mine since I was like ten.  (I know that says how incredibly nerdy I was even as a child, but it's true!)  So I will probably just be lying on the battlefield sobbing because I will be so excited to be there.  Or perhaps running down Little Round Top...just like the 20th Maine!  I'm going with my little brother Clayton and his high school class.  Those poor kids aren't even going to know what's going on when they see how excited I am about every place that we go!

4.  Also I've also started dating someone.  And he's really super great!  I know what you're all thinking, but it's true!  I, Anna Marie, like a man that likes me back!  :)

5.  I'm going to buy my graduation stuff tomorrow!!  Bah!!  Graduation is getting closer!!  And I'm going to graduate with a degree in my favorite subject of all favorite subjects!!  What am I going to do with a degree in history?!  Well...maybe you should ask me in like a year and maybe I will have an answer for you.

6.  My best friend Brittany went through the temple for the first time yesterday and it was super super wonderful!!  Love her!  And she's the greatest!

7. I got to go see the Mummies of the World Exhibit last week with my #1 guy and it was really cool!  They had mummies from Egypt and from South America and even one from the Pacific Islands!  So awesome!! 

8.  Also my roommate Val made monkey bread last week.  And I stole a few bites.  And it was good!

So there ya go!  That's what's been happenin' in the last month!  And life is great!  :)
