JDRF Support

Hey Everyone! I am a proud member of JDRF, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. I have Type 1 Diabetes (known as Juvenile Diabetes) and was diagnosed in January 2000. I would really appreciate your support of me as I prepare for the 2009 Walk To Cure Diabetes on September 26, 2009 located in Orem, UT. Please consider making a donation in any amount you can:

I'd like to thank everyone in advance for donations! Unfortunately this year I will not have the opportunity to walk this year. That exact same morning I will be attending the Commencement Ceremony for Provo College. I will get to walk early and then later get my diploma in November when I finish my last term. I still accept donations and I appreciate it in any amount!

2006 Honda Civic Hybrid

I had a very good day today. I got up this morning and starting looking through the paper. Started looking at the used car section and I just started browsing specifically for hybrids. Well soon thereafter I see a 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid listed just below 14k. That really got me excited because I have never seen a Hybrid go for that low! So I decided to visit the dealership website and they had it listed for even cheaper: $12,885! That was way sweet! So I called the dealership and told them my situation. So I ended up driving to the dealership in Bountiful. I got there just after 11 am and began the process. First started by test driving the car. It was pretty sweet! Then we started working with papers and stuff. They started to go get my credit score, so in the meantime the salesperson said I could go test drive some more. I got some lunch at Wendys real quick then drove around for a little bit. Then came back and started working with more paperwork. I called Dad to get some information and also eventually to see if he would co-sign on the deal. He said he would and I will now officially be getting the car! I ended up spending pretty much my whole day at the dealership. I didn't get home until just before 5. But then I began spreading the news of my new car!

Later tonight I hung out with a friend. I showed her my projects that I was working on and had completed. We then watched a movie and had a pretty good time. Took her home and came back. So I had a pretty darn good saturday!
