My dad and I decided in January that we were going to prepare for a 5K, neither of us have really been into running... so a 5K is kind of a big deal :)
Well... school got in the way and not a single day since January have I gone running until today!!
Hannah was feeling very energetic so we went for a 1 1/2 mile run!! Let's just say I need lots of training before I can make it 3 miles.
My all time goal is to do a triathalon, but I figured I better atleast get the running part down first!!!
I am excited to keep training and hopefully I can run the 5k run at the end of July!
This is the first summer I will not be gone at camp all summer, I actually will live a normal summer... which I am pretty excited and unsure about :) As with everything else I do in my life I am making my summer bucket list! These are things that I love or have wanted to do during the summer and now will have time!!

I know this is a lot and I am sure I can add more... but I haven't been home for a summer in 6 years... so I have a lot to catch up on!
This entire semester I have been working on a campaign project for my social marketing class. We had to write up an entire campaign, commercials, radio adds, we met with focus groups of our target audience. It has been quite the task. We chose to promote the importance of not text messaging while driving. Our campaign is call Don't Drive Blind: TXT or DRV; Not Both. I created a blog for the campaign- here is the link; http://dontdriveblind.blogspot.com/
we also have a facebook page which you can get to from this link https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Dont-Drive-Blind/134263106647183
We made two commercials which I am pretty proud of. Kristal and my Dad you got to be guests in the video... hope you don't mind :D Here is one of them, you can see the other on the blog or the Facebook page
Here is our logo/ bumper sticker.
The project is almost done and will probably total 75 pages. I figured since we did all this work I might as well show it off and maybe have some impact with our campaign!
It's official my i-pod which was also Amanda's all the way through high school has finally bit the dust. No life left in it, as much as I want to deny it, I have to admit that it's officially dead.
I decided to dedicate this blog post to it, I know I'm weird :) I decided to post my top 5 most listened to songs! Don't judge me for what I love :D
I love Celine Dion, my best friend Kristal showed me this song in high school and I still think it's beautiful :) They sang it on Glee and actually did it justice! I also love that the lyrics for this video are in another language!
I love this song by Taylor Swift! I liked her new cd but it was kinda depressing, but I love this song
I have always LOVED the Wicked soundtrack... however, ever since we went I have been extra obsessed. This is my favorite song from the play.
I blame the last song on Amanda and Andrea! Pretty sure we listened to this song 3 or 4 times a day the entire time we were in China! Because of those 5 months I think it will forever be in my top 5 listened to. I'm glad we were able to get our friend Joey to learn it on the guitar for us!
One of the best parts of Utah State has to be the basketball games!! I love how excited the crowd gets and all the fun crazy cheers!! I got to stand in the front row at one game and I'm pretty sure it was one of the highlights of this semester!! The last couple of home games they handed out blue gloves for the ENTIRE student section to wear. They were so fun and though I didn't think it could be possible it made the crowds clapping even louder!! I LOVE basketball :)
I'm not sure why... just another random night :) But Hannah got us to try to climb up the wall.. I used to do it when i was younger, but it has gotten much more difficult! It was fun and very entertaining!
Utah State put on a Mardi Gras activity, We had a blast! We first went to the mentalist show which blew my mind. Some of his tricks make no sense to me even after hours of contemplating them! He was very good and entertaining... I just wish I knew his tricks. We also went to a Freak Show... never again!! It was a group of people who inflicted pain upon themselves that could have killed them. I don't like pain and we had to sit on the front row... I was traumatized, though I was very impressed. We did have a wonderful time at the activity, however I'm pretty sure we had more fun getting ourselves ready! Luckily we had the amazing Hannah to help out, she painted all of our faces and did a fabulous job!
Sorry Amanda I'm stealing some of your pictures since surprisingly I didn't take any!!
It has been a while since i have posted on my blog... I'm sorry!! It's just crazy how busy I have gotten with working and the end of school coming!! Only three more tests and an entire marketing project to present and then it's SUMMER!
I have decided that I have the best roommates anyone could ask for! We eat fabulous food, they have trained me to stay up late and i now sometimes actually stay awake during movies, we eat delicious Harry Potter food and best of all make snow cones out of SNOW :)
One day it was snowing and Britney had kool-aid so what did she have us do? Make snowcones! They were absolutely delicious!! And of course with me around we took picture!!
Before adding the Kool-Aid
My name is Debbie Stauffer, and this is my blog :) Life is a gift and I believe we should make the most of it! I love to be with my family and friends enjoying every minute I am given! This is who I am and the life I love!
