22.5

Today I happily realized that it is my half birthday.

And it's going to be a great day!

Why?

1. My mamma. In Provo.

2. Both of my sisters. In Provo.

3. Cute Boy. Meeting all of them.

4. Dinner tonight.

5. Me lying at aforementioned dinner to get free birthday desserts.

the best thing ever

and i am going to be a part of it.

honestly, this might just be the best thing created in modern history.

and no, i don't think that statement is a bit of an exaggeration.

funniest video. ever.

thanks lene for showing me this little gem :)

i LOVE my major

but.

if given the chance,

i might give up my passion for the written word

to swim around with these little guys all day long...

someone take me to the ocean, please.

and make it soon.

hello yellow

Welcome to my newly-renovated blog! Do you love the rocket ships and robots? Because guess what, I do too. I figured I might as well write a little post since I spent a bunch of time playing around with the layout. Hence, I would like to take this little opportunity to say:

I love summertime!!

Yes, it's true. I really really do (Ha, a rhyme. You're welcome for that little taste of culture). I am turning into a tan woman, not working nearly as hard as I should be, but making up for it with the energy that I'm putting into playing. I love it. Maybe too much. Is anyone else beside themselves with excitement for the FOURTH OF JULY? I am so so grateful to be an American and love that we have the opportunity to celebrate the awesomeness that is the United States of America. Plus the fact that we get to play with sparklers all night is pretty sweet.

rules for my life

1. read your scriptures. every day. like it.
2. let things go.
3. there are not many good excuses to not be wearing mascara.
4. everyone has things they have to do. you can either hate doing them or like doing them. try to like doing them for a change.
5. stay in contact with the people you love.
6. allow yourself to be a little obsessed with things (running, makeup, romantic poetry, boys, etc).
7. remember that all things happen for a reason.
8. give people the benefit of the doubt.
9. always have chapstick handy.
10. be honest and straightforward with people. they like it. and you'll like yourself for it.

Yes Please

Sephora has come to Provo.
And I can't decide if this is the best thing to have happened to me... or the wor$t.
