The Funny Flight Attendant

So, on my flight home from Salt Lake, the flight attendant was hilarious!
"This may surprise you: We do have a smoking section on this flight. (I went Whaaat?) It is located on the wings. You will truly experience Gone With The Wind. Smoking in the cabin is not allowed. Smoking in the bathrooms is not allowed. Tampering with smoke detectors will give you a $2,000 fine. And, frankly, if you could spend that much, you wouldn't be flying Southwest."
"The pressure in the cabin is not scheduled to change today. If it was, I wouldn't have come to work. If it does, though, stop panicking as soon as the oxygen masks drop down. Help yourself first, then your child. If you have more than one child, help the one with the most potential first, then work your way down from there."
"If this flight becomes a cruise, inflate the life vest and swim like you've never swam before. We'll be right behind you with the beer and peanuts. When we reach land, we'll have a luau."
When the flight attendants come down the rows to check the overhead compartments he said, "And now Drew and Sheri will come by to show off their armpits."
He was pretty funny! I was laughing so hard!

Be The Best You Camp

I got home yesterday from the best camp I have ever been to! It's called "Be The Best You" Camp for Girls. It was so much fun! We did a service project almost every day. We had a circus for kids from the Boys and Girls Club, we had a Princess Party for disabled women, we read books to the same kids from the Boys and Girls Club, and we visited Care Centers. We had amazing speakers, people like John Bytheway and Brad Wilcox. We had an American Idol night, we had an amazing testimony meeting, and we had a banquet the last night. Kenneth Cope came and gave us a concert. It was fantastic! I learned so much and had so much fun. It was the best!

Goin' Green

Basically, with all the trash build up and pollution, I'm kinda "going green". I'm now really big on recycling, and turning off lights if your not in the room. Seriously, Polar Bears are dying because of global warming, which is caused by pollution. If we carpool more, it will be a big help. Or walk. People in my neighborhood should just walk to and from school. It's like a 10 to 15 minute walk!
And water use. Turn off the water when you brush your teeth. It will help you, because the water bill will be less. Turn off lights whne you leave the room; your electricity bill will go down. Carpool, and save money on gas. Its way too expensive anyway!
If everyone just recycled, walked, and turned stuff off more, Polar Bears wouldn't die so much! Did you know because of climate changes, Polar Bear's and Grizzly Bear's habitats are now colliding? They've actually been living in the same areas lately. People in Canada even found a hybrid bear- half Polar Bear and half Grizzly! That's never happened before. Yeah, it's kinda cool, but that means we've really done something to the earth- and not a good thing. Those bears are supposed to live apart from eachother.
So, please remember to recycle and turn stuff off. And walk; it's good for the earth and you!

Me, Megan

I am lots of diffrent things. I am a Mormon. I am a Band Geek. I am a friend. I am a sister, cousin, daughter, niece, and granddaughter. I am a babysitter. I am a Rubber Duckie. I am a Buttercup Beauty. I am a Senior. I am a Princess.
I am often described as short (true), loud (sometimes, ok, most of the time), funny (I try), a good friend (thanks), a dork (usually true), cute (really?), and sometimes weird (only compared to some people).

Pet Peeves

I have a couple of Pet Peeves. Here we go:
#1- "itch". The word "itch" is a noun, not a verb! You don't "itch" and itch, you scratch it! It drives me crazy to hear someone say "I have an itch." and then someone else saying "well, then itch it." Say SCRATCH it!
#2- When people put empty bottles or containers into the fridge. Throw them away!
#3- When people throw away things that can be recycled. C'mon, people! Recycle! Help the earth!
#4- When the person you are talking to on the phone talks to someone else on their end. It's ok if they say "just a second" or something, but just to start talking to someone else is annoying!
