I AM SICK...

I am sick and I hate being sick, the one thing I hate more than being sick is being sick with a sore throat. I just wasn't going to settle this time around with a sore throat. I asked my mom to bust out the salt water for me to gargle. I have only tried this once in my life, and I hated it so much I swore I would never do it ever again, and would rather go through the pain of a sore throat. Well yesterday I put down my pride, and I did it, I gargled with that gross salt water, and guess what?! It didn't work! I went to work still with a sore throat. I came home looking for something else to help. My recent trip to Amvets brought me home with a new book on healing herbs. I oped the book and found the section for sore throats.. here is what I found....

"If your throat is infected and mucusy, I recommend gargling with teas made from infection fighting, inflammation-soothing herbs such as sage, thyme, goldenseal, echinacea, or myrrh." says Upton - The Women's book of Healing Herbs secrets from 90 top herbal healers
So I then looked through my kitchen to see what I could find. I found thyme. I followed the recipe on how to make the homemade tea, and made it in 2 minutes. I then gargled my lil life away with that tea, and instantly after I did this my throat was soothed, no more sore throat!! Still today, I woke up with a fine throat, a little scratchy, but not sore! HALLELUJAH!!!!! I gargled a glass today too though just in case ;)

If you want to know more details on what to do and such let me know!

Experimental Cake Project...

So I am currently OBSESSED with amvets. It is awesome! I got so much stuff there crazy cheap. I love making cake. I just love cake. And when I was at amvets I found this Cake setup thingy that indents your cake with a picture of such.. The picture isn't really indented but raised.. as you can see here...

Anyways the project became a tragedy. All went wrong, the pan was not greased enough and everything stuck and it ended up like this... :/

The end project looked like this......

It tasted really good though, I have to add. But isn't it tragic. :( Maybe another test drive will be coming up again soon.

Sister Missionaries....

Sister missionaries over the years have been stereo typed. Well I use to think the same thing... but I strongly disagree now.
Sisters don't go on missions just because they are socially awkward. They don't go on missions because they are just sad puppies who can't find a man to marry.
They go on missions because it's what they have been prompted to do in their lives. They go because they want to spread the gospel. They go because they want to become better people. They go because they are suppose to go.

The End.

ME and This Kid...

We know each other.. sorta.. kinda well ;)
Basically we know each other REALLY WELL!!!
Funny story.. We were in Arizona getting my teeths fixed by his step dad and visiting his family.. and one gorgeous warm night me and Cam were talking to his mom. Cam was sitting in a chair and I was standing behind him, no way he could see me. Well he makes a comment to his mom, and I did this face...

Cam still facing forward says.... I HEARD THAT FACE!!!!!! I go what face?! AND HE SHOWS ME THE SAME EXACT FACE I DID! How does he do it?!! Either I am a really obvious person, or he just knows me crazy well... He impresses me more everyday

ALICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So growing up me and my best friend Shelbi Johnson for some reason always called each other Alice, and Belle, we actually still do.... So I have always had a love for Alice in Wonderland, it is my favorite disney movie. So you can only imagine how stoked I was for the movie coming out!

So me and Shelbi had a fall out back in high school, you know the usual boyfriends, different schools, things just got complicated and we sorta lost touch. Well we had a reunion! We are on the same soccer team and we planned a girls night out on Thursday, well that happened to be the day ALICE CAME OUT! Sooooo we went to the show!!!

So Alice in Wonderland...... We weren't sure how busy it was going to be and we didn't really have much to do that night so around 9:30 we went to the movies, bought our tickets ( Belle got a nice coupon for free popcorn and I got a free movie ticket! Woohoo!), then we went to the friendly neighborhood gas station and got snacks, then we didn't know what to do till midnight!

Well with some miracle she had chairs in the back of her car and a nice big blanket! We camped out, second in line for alice in wonderland! BAHAHA It was hilarious! We met a few girls, chatted with them, shared snacks, and had a blast. Then a hour or so later, who shows up in line behind me? KEVIN WILLIAMS! What are the chances! So it was just a party in line for Alice. It was fun seeing all the people dressed up and stuff....

THEN FINALLY WE WERE LET INTO THE THEATRE! We got the exact seats we wanted and it was great! Unfortunately we somehow spilled half of our treats on the ground, and this man next to me was crazy High! Screaming and talking to himself the whole movie! Other than that it was great, well wait actually I was exhausted! I almost fell asleep, but thankfully the movie was entertaining enough it kept me awake.

I loved the movie, it wasn't what I expected but it was great! I won't share details to spoil it for anyone but I thought it would be the disney story of Alice in Wonderland, which it was, but with a twist. I guess it was also off the book, Through the Looking Glass! It was a wonderful unexpected surprise! GO SEE IT!

2010-03-03T20:05:00.000-08:00

A Day Of SEEESTERS is sooo great!!!!!!!

I LOVE YOU SAM!!!! I am a goof ball, you're a goof ball, and we are totally obnoxious to all around us, but we could care less because we are having the time of our lives!

The Little Things.....

The little things make the biggest difference! Maybe it's just me, but it's huge to me. Seriously the littlest thing can change a person's day! Like today, someone just said the smallest but most sincere compliment to me, and it just lit up my day!

A few weeks ago I was in Idaho, my grandfather passed away and the whole family was there. I never realized it before, but my mom's side of the family is so freaking loving! We were always hugging and kissing and complimenting each other. It was amazing, I have never felt so much love in just one week before. It made me realize something....

The simple words of a compliment or an I LOVE YOU can make a huge difference sometimes!

A family member would just come sit by me and hold me, and squeeze me. Sometimes just come up and say they love me. Or just tell me something nice they think about me. IT was soooo amazing what the smallest gesture did. It changed my life!

I challenge all you people in the world out there, where ever you are, to do something for someone everyday, even the smallest thing! SAY I LOVE YOU, no I don't think those words can ever be over used or spoken too much, mostly I think they aren't said enough! TELL SOMEONE YOU LOVE THEM! COMPLIMENT THEM! HUG THEM! You don't even need WORDS most of the time. Write a note, do something even if anonymous to change a persons life one day at a time. The smallest thing can change someone, can change their perspective on something, it can make their life worth living!

~JUST LOVE~

DUD!!!!!!

THIS Blog has been a big DUD! I have been a big dud, and there hasn't been much to blog about. I doubt anyone even knows this blog exists anymore. My Nana mentioned that I hadn't blogged recently. So I guess I still have one reader....... :) Sooo this is ME.......

My new obsession..... CLEANING!!!! Not a bad obsession, it calms me down, gives me something to do, super relaxing, just crank up the music and it's a party. So I decided that with this new obsession I should purchase some tooo cute gloves. Aren't they awesome?! I got them at one of my favorite stores..... unique-vintage.com CHECK IT OUT!

Am I going to school? not currently, but plan to next semester at Palomar. I have a lot of school goals, and because I am very inconsistent with decisions I make I am going to keep those a secret for now.
Working? yes, still at Fish house whenever I get the chance.
Hobbies? I play soccer 3 times a week, in Poway, San Marcos, and Escondido. Its a ball! I am pretty banged and bruised up right now but I love every minute of it.
Dating? Nope, and happy with that!
Social life? BAHAHA not a huge one right now, my best friend Stephanie just left on her mission the Chile! But my other best friend just came home from CHILE! Anyways I am pretty happy with how my life is right now. And my current books are keeeeping me plenty busy!

I am really looking forward to getting on the school bus, woohooo and I am sticking with it this time!

The biggest newest thing lately is my sister is getting married! Congrats CC and Davey! They are darling, just lovely, and I am ecstatic for them!

Well until next time...... Tooo-da-luuuuu

"Spending time with you just feels..... right, somehow. Easy, like the way it's supposed to be."

Another Quote by Nicholas Sparks, I swear this book Dear John is like my life story in ways!!!!

2009-08-04T23:11:00.000-07:00

" But I did meet her (him); That's the thing that makes my current life so strange. I fell in love with her (him) when we were together, then fell deeper in love with her (him) in the years we were apart. Our story has three parts: a beginning, a middle, and an end. And although this is the way all stories unfold, I still can't believe that ours didn't go on forever...... " - Dear John by Nicholas Sparks

TV EXTREMES!!!!!

TV..... I sat down and watched some the other night, and these were my amazing findings!!!!!

#1: Takes place in Hollywood California. Anyone looking for wedding catering? I was thinking this is a good and cheap(er) idea to feed a ton of people! Here it is... Drum roll please!!!! BIG MAMA'S & Papa's Pizzeria. Here they have the biggest Pizza ever!!!! They even made a special wooden box to put it in because it is sooo heavy. And it takes a group of guys to carry it, load it, and deliver it! It is nuts! And they had to buy a truck for delivery because it is so huge you have to put it into a truck bed! WELL WELL WELLL>>> There you have it, a local legend. :)

#2: A VERMONSTER!!!!!!!!!!!! It is the biggest sunday made by Ben And Jerry's. Can I just tell everyone Ben and Jerry's is soooooooo fattening. But I do love it!!! I don't know as many facts on this one, other than it is Huge, and a group of people can hardly do it! I SAW IT ON TV! Who wants to try this one with me??!!!

NEXT!!! Okay this one takes place in Denver, Colorado at Jack N' Grill. The best for last.... Dun.. dun.. dun.... This one is....... A BURRITO THE SIZE OF A NEW BORN BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is 7 BIG POUNDS!!!!!!!!!! If a man finishes this burrito he gets his meal free. But if a WOMAN FINISHES THIS BURRITO...... SHE EATS AT JACK N' GRILL FOR FREE THE REST OF HER LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is serious business guys!!! I think it would be fun to take a cross country trip to places like these and try to do them all. Just like at the fair... THE FUNNEL CAKE CHALLENGE!!!! hahaha eat the massive funnel cake in 20 minutes and get your funnel cake free! YA BABY!

2009-06-24T17:49:00.000-07:00

2009-06-23T21:55:00.000-07:00

I fear that I have blonde moments every day. Today was one of those days. I have been living on changing my cloths in the car from place to place. Eating very lightly since I am not ever home. I am very sleep deprived. My thoughts are never really there, I am in my own world most of the time. I have stress like I have never had stress before. Everything is falling apart around me and I have no control over it. Things just aren't right lately with me. I was out of work for a week and my first day back I kept having these blonde moments!!! Everyone kept making fun of me! You know when your gone for a while and you're just so out of sink with everything. Well that was me. Well today was another one of those days. I was at work, in my own world, pricing and hanging cloths. Well I come across these tanks I have to hang up. I had priced them and layed them out ready to be hung on hangers. I had hung most of them, and well just a description of the shirt the arm holes and the neck hole looked almost exactly the same. So I am hanging these shirts up everything is going good, I am placing them on the cash wrap where we have a massive magnet that the hangers stick too so I have somewhere to place them before I put them out on the floor, and my mananger is like Jess ummm...... And points to the shirts I had hung on the magnet. I am like what? And then I see!! I had hung the shirt from the stupid look-a-like neck hole which was really the sleeve hole!!!!!!!! WOW!!! Are you kidding me?!!!! I HUNG THE SHIRT FROM THE ARM HOLE! How does this even happen?!! WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME!!! But of course it is kind of hilarious since I was sooooo in my own world and super out of it. But man oh man I can do the dumbest things and she knows it. Just like the one time when I was trying to read one of our shirts which said POL then LUTTON under the POL then the word SUCKS under the LUTTON part. Well I was like dude what is up with this shirt? Pol Lutton Sucks? Is it suppose to say Loui Vutton sucks?! What? And why would our store be bashing on Loui Vutton? Is that even legal? And of course I comment out loud! Well the same mananger is there thinking I am soooo dumb haha. Well as you all probably know Pol LUtton means POLLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!! POLLUTION SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!! See what I mean! And it always happens around the same mananger everytime!!!!!!!!! Well there you go. A moment in the life of Jess Hulka. :)

I keep trying to change all text color and then it gets even more rainbowed. I really hope this isn't just a dumb blond moment and one of you is going to leave an obvious comment and I am going to feel so lame!!!!

2009-06-18T11:27:00.000-07:00

I AM STILL A DISASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I have been trying to keep busy busy lately, saving myself from my own thoughts, and also trying to make this summer better than Summer of 08! I started it off at a bonfire last Thursday with my girl Michelle. It was awesome!!!!!!!! So much fun and we proclaimed it the official first day of summer! We ran, we played, we jumped, and we fell, well more like face planted it in the sand. We were sooooo Happy!!!! So the next day we thought was going to be just as good, WELL GUESS AGAIN!!! I woke up with the flu and the smell of bonfire and it was horrible!!!!! SOOOSOOO SUCKY! So I had to get off work at both jobs for the weekend and to my surprise for a week also! Tomorrow is my first day back to work! YES!!!!!!!!!!! No thanks to this...............................
Saturday afternoon I went upstairs to shower myself. Well we have this crazy cat (Hoover) upstairs in my sisters room who has a rivalry going on with one cat (Kiya) downstairs. Well Kiya was walking upstairs as I was going downstairs, and she was hunting Hoover as always. So I just nudged her side to make her go back downstairs to save the life of Hoover. WELLLLLLLLL Kiya attacked me!!! Like seriously attacked me!!!!!!! She scratched me and bit me andwowzer it hurt! She latched onto my foot and I could not get her off I was shaking my foot and she just stayed there not letting go. Keep in mind we were standing on dangerous stairs and I also had our third cat, Huskie, on my shoulder. She was scared and her claws we stuck in my shoulder. So finally Hoover took charge and came over and hissed at Kiya and Kiya finally let go of me and ran downstairs. Well then it took another minute to get Huskie unattached from my shoulder while crying because of the pain I was in. I instantly noticed these massive scratches on my foot and this huge puncture from her teeth. I was like HOLY COW!!! There is a huge, deep hole in my foot!!!! Well I calmed down and just went back to the couch being sick. Well the next afternoon I went to Urgent care. My foot was crazy infected!!! it was red and swollen and oozing nasties out of it. I was blessed haha so not blessed with a shot in the butt! and sent home with antibiotics. I had to go to the doctor the next day and thankfully I got it in good enough shape to not get a second shot in the butt even though I thought for sure I would get one since my foot was better but worse in some ways.
Warning: Cats have this bacteria in their mouths that infect humans swiftly and fast. If you ever get bitten by a cat and have a puncture, immediately go to the doctor! don't wait till the next day because your watching to see if it gets infected or not, it will get infected! Because it spreads so fast in just a day or two it can become so bad that you can be admitted to the hospital to get antibiotics put in you through a IV. If I waited another day I probably would of had to do that. Also the infection could of spread to my bone and that takes a really long time to get the infection out of. I AM SO READY TO GET RID OF THE CATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well it has been a week of me sitting on the couch sick, and unable to walk because of pain. Well I am going to try to go to work tomorrow! Wish me luck! Hopefully the pain won't be too bad and my weakness will be okay. AHHH!!!

P.S. The pictures don't even look as bad as it really was :(

My foot was really Red Like this..............................

2009-06-10T21:25:00.000-07:00

I AM A DISASTER!!!!!!!

AND Everything around me is a disaster!
I just deleted the background of my blog, how did I even get that background on there? I have no idea? How do I get a new one, that's a brain teaser to me? I don't even know how to use this thing, let alone have anything to say that anyone probably cares about! haha I haven't blogged in forever, and not sure what to blog about in the future, but I might keep at it. WE WILL SEE!!!! THE FUTURE HOLDS ANYTHING!!!!!

2009-03-07T10:44:00.000-08:00

Dream Catcher

So last night I was blessed with receiving a dream catcher from my lovely sister. I was super stoked because I love them! She asked me if I knew what they meant and I told her I did and then went and hung it over my bed and later went to sleep. WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM ONE NOT TO HAVE BAD DREAMS! OR DREAMS IN GENERAL! But last night I had a bad dream!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!! Well to some it might not of been a bad dream but to me it soooo was!!!! So me and my "man" were fighting or something and we had tickets to go out of the country, well i ditched him and ran there myself. The escalators were all weird and all mixed up to get to where I was suppose to board. Well I get to where I was suppose to board finally and it was on the beach?! Wha!!! Well anyways we and this lady were talking about the different types of planes there that we wouldn't want to fly in because of different looks/shapes/sizes. well anyways while waiting to board we see a plane take off, literally right in front of our faces. And it took off on the beach?! BAHAHA! And it just drove right into the water, and I was like no way there is no way it is going to take off!!! Well It totally did, and seconds later we see all this smoke. And the plane was hardly off the ground and going in circles. It was so close we could see the pilot and co pilot flying the plane and their faces were freaking out! And the whole plane was filled with smoke! It was spinning out and it finally crashed. THE END. Super weird I know. :)

Well for a person that doesn't ever really remember her dreams especially not the bad ones, its kinda weird that the night before I hang my dream catcher I have a bad dream :( What do you think? Do you think it was a coincidence? Or do you think my mind since I was thinking about the dream catcher that it created a bad dream for me? hmmmmmm........

Year 2008 life cap..........

Wow I just realized a ton had happened last year. I grew, learned, and experienced so many things. I feel kind of intimidated by 2009 I feel like I can't top last year. But of course anything is possible right? I will keep growing, doing, and experiencing a ton of things!
Well I started 2008 will a hard hard time, my boyfriend of two years left on a mission and we were both living in Utah. He was in the MTC and I was just living there working and going to school. It was super hard saying goodbye to him but I was extremely happy and ecstatic and supportive of him going on his mission. It was definitely hard and depressing at times but I worked my way through it. I moved up to Utah for school, I went to BYU Salt Lake. It was amazing but tough! I failed almost all of my tests but still some how came around and passed all my classes thankfully! I had 3 different jobs that semester, I wish it was the same now so easy to get a job. My first job was at BYU Catering, I worked there a month or so and never got to work once! BULL CRAP! So then I got a job out of desperation at BYU Custodial, I cleaned racket ball courts every day except Friday and Saturdays from 10:30 to 1:30 am. CRAZY RIGHT!! Well I got burned out on that job having to work late hours and SUNDAYS!!!! So I quit there and got a job at a call center, it was boring but payed amazing! So my plans from there were to stay in Utah for summer, I signed a contract for my apartment and everything. I think like 2 weeks before summer when everyone was going home I decided to move home!!!! I had to call my landlord, and post adds on craigslist for my house and everything! It was nuts trying to find someone to move in there considering that it was way more expensive than most places in the Summer. After a ton of praying and fasting the girl that I took her contract from decided to not move out!!!!! SO INTENSE!!! I was so lucky!!! Oh and P.S. I totally forgot I took a around 2 weeks off in March to go to Europe! I went to Austria, Switzerland, Germany, and Lichtenstein. It was amazing to travel and see more things!!!
So that brings me to the summer. I come home and have an AMAZING SUMMER!!! Probably one of the bests! I was at the beach almost everyday, I met the most amazing people ever who are my closest friends now, had a boyfriend, got my heart broken, but learned a ton :). I worked probably only twice a week if lucky serving but I got by just fine. I applied to move to Russia for January 2009 and I got in!!! Well summer was coming to a end and my plans were to move back to Utah and go to school. Well one night my Mom asked why I don't go to Russia sooner. It was only a month or less before the winter semester for Russia started. I was torn, I could go sooner if there was an opening but if I waited to January I did have everything i wanted, the school I wanted to teach at the city I wanted to go to the housing I wanted exactly. But I though what the heck might as well try for it. So I decided to email the program and ask if there was any opening for Aug. 2008 to go to Russia. They emailed me back the next day and said the day they received my email was the day that someone dropped out. It was the exact school, city and housing I would of gotten if I waited. So my dilemma was over! I WAS GOING TO RUSSIA 5 months early! I had like 3 weeks to prepare I was freaking out. Well I already posted the story from there but I end up not going till the end of September because of Visa problems.
Anyways so there it is my year 2008. I met the most amazing people I could ever of asked to have in my life. I had a ton of amazing and spiritual experiences and grew so much. I got some college done to contribute to my future. I went to and saw 10 different countries. And I spent a summer with my family and got to know them better. Now we all have our downs and trials and I had a ton of those trust me, but over all I am SUPER PLEASED WITH 2008 in the end.
Well 2009 is here.... Bah 2009! hahaha I haven't accomplished much yet. I dropped out of college for the semester and just picked up and moved to Utah. Why? I can't tell you. But I can say this it helped me clear my head and decide what I want to do with my life. So if anything I did get my goals and life put back together. I will be moving home at the end of the month, I will be working at the same Fish restaurant that I always worked at. I will be hopefully starting a program in Phlebotomy in April. And I will be in training for soccer again, I want to play so back this next season. I am going to be checking out and applying to different colleges for my major. Right now I am looking at either a ultrasound tech, or a surgeon tech. I am super excited! I did give up on my dream as a flight attendant though :( Only for now hahaha. My "missionary" will come home at the end of this year and I will get to see him again! Well basically I am super excited to see what life will bring me this year. If its not traveling or anything luxurious like last year I will just be happy with settling with having my good friends and family with me at the end of the day. All I want this year is to figure out my future and progress towards it.

P.S. I AM SO GOING TO BUY A VW BUS THIS SUMMER AND FIX IT UP!!!!!!! THAT'S SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO DEFINITELY!

True Wuv for Each Other

I have had the fact of being a "True/Good Friend" on my mind lately. I know what my idea of a true/Good Friend is but not sure what others think. I try super hard to be a really good friend to others but know I am not perfect. So what do you think a true friend is? And how can you be a good friend to others?
I googled it and here are some things that others have said....

We don't worry about courtesies, we can call each other at any hour about anything.
Not worrying about exposing ourselves, we can speak our mind, say anything we want, and not worry about them judging us.
We can unguard ourselves.
Supportive, and understanding.
Will be there for us with out expecting anything in return.
The will help us with no extent, they will do anything in their power to help us.
They will support you even if the whole world opposes you.

Well those were just a few things out of so many. We all need to have good friends in our lives. They help us feel good and happy. They are also straight up and tell you how it is. You need someone that you can talk to about anything always. Someone you know who really cares to listen and wants to know what is going on with your life. We need someone that asks you questions and doesn't only worry about themselves. Someone who is unselfish. Someone that when you ask them about their day asks you back about yours and isn't doing it out of common courtesy. Someone who loves and cares for you the way you are. Someone who has the desire to be there no matter what. Who doesn't get sick of you when your on a downer they are just understandable because one day they will be there too. Someone who will come over at 3 in the morning just because you need them. Someone who really knows you. We all need someone. But to get someone you have to give back also. The key to receiving and keeping a good/true friend is that the relationship is two sided. You can't expect your friends to stick around forever if you don't give back to them and show you care also. We need to be a good/true friend to receive one.
I challenge everyone to try and be a better friend this week. Try to get to really know the person you care about. Learn one new thing about them. Show them that you love them. Make sure they know your there, and be there. Listen, be understanding, patient, honest.

My New Life With out Russia.............

I have been home a month now from Russia. My blog was originally for me and in Russia, but I decided to extend this blog further more after because I sit at home bored all day so why not blurb about it. I spent my first few weeks at home with family spending Christmas together, new years and what not. Me and my sister took a road trip up to Utah to drop of my bro Danny and to get all of our stuff that was still in Utah and move it home. We took 12 hours driving to Utah because we were making music videos and taking pictures and discovering the Mars of ZZYZX road, The craziest adventure ever. So then I come home sit around hate life and I decide a week later to move back up to Utah. Crazy I know right. Well so two weekends after just up there I move back to Utah. After a week of living in Utah I basically hated my life there too, complicated haha. So the first weekend I was there I took a road trip home, it was great being there with
Family and friends. I didn't know what to do anymore, move home to California or stay in Uta? Well I am back in Utah right now. I have a job interview at Wingers today, and trying to apply for a phlebotomy program. The only thing about that, that sucks is that it is still pending so it might not start till the end of March! GRR!!! So I still don't know what to do with my crazy life... I will keep you posted on my thoughts and feelings on life.. until then....
