five favorites

Welcome to the Five Favorite picks of the week! It's pretty simple, so follow along friends.

1. Song: B.o.B - Lovlier Than You

2. Dress that I will never be able to afford: Marc by Marc Jacobs (in the red, not yellow)

4. This video
-Dancers, why haven't we done this yet?

5. Phrase that has been brought back into my life: As if!

newly remodeled

So, it's been over a year and this face-lift was much needed and long overdue. And who knows, I may wake up tomorrow and change it all again. That will keep you all on your toes - I don't know why it would but just go with it
I'm not sure where exactly this blog will take me now, but from the title, I think it is safe to assume that it will have a little bit of everything. Anything that I may want to bring up.
One reason I decided to renew my previously estranged relationship with online positing is because there are a lot of exciting things ahead of me: college graduation, moving to a new city, going to Mexico, and starting a new job, to name a few. And you know what? I am stoked. But being as moving means leaving a lot of things and people behind, I figured a this would be perfectly superficial way to keep said things and people updated. (And let's face it, I am probably going to need something to do while I try and get settled in the new exotic world of...Salt Lake City...Heaven help me).

Adios (I'm practicing for Mexico)

This One’s For You Amber!

Well, I guess I was wrong. Here I was thinking that no one reads my blog and low and behold, I find that Amber reads my blog! So, this one is for you.

For those who don’t know, Amber is my big sister! And she is pretty awesome. I am pretty sure she could beat up many of my guy friends, not because they are weak, but because she is pretty strong =)  But she never would because she is a lover, not a fighter.

When I was little, and even more annoying than I currently am now, she would let me follow her around, to some degree, and she would hang all the pictures that I colored up on her door. How sweet is that? That is love people.

Anyway, Amber is one of the coolest people I know and we have a lot of fun together, when we get to see each other that is. I can’t wait for this summer and being able to go to Disney World with my sisters! I love them and they almost always answer the phone when I call, and when they don’t answer they at least call me back! Anyway, Love ya sis!

I love the Olympics…Oh and Shaun White

OK, I am sorry I have been away for so long, but to be completely honest, I really doubt that anyone really reads this and even really cares…so I guess I am not that sorry.

And even though I have been busy, and have one of the craziest schedules thus far in my life, I don’t even have anything remotely exciting to report. Life is good and everything, it can just be a tad monotonous. Good things happen, but never really  anything that anyone would want to hear about… And to be perfectly honest I can hardly remember what I did yesterday so maybe something exciting has happened and I just don’t remember.

Anyway, back to the topic on hand that has lead me to create a post after being MIA for so long. I just had to make sure that people knew I was still alive.

The winter Olympics have arrived my friends and I couldn’t be happier. I love the Olympics, especially when America wins (go team USA) sorry, I am not afraid to admit that I am ridiculously biased towards my country when it comes to athletics.

Even when a athlete crashes and falls to the ground along with their dreams, and it breaks my heart a little bit, I still can’t get enough of the Olympics. The amazing displays so far! AMAZING! My favorite so far was definitely Shaun White’s victory lap, ending with his trick that he can only do called something like the McTwister…it sounds a little bit like a McDonalds treat and let me tell you when Shaun nailed it at the end of his run, I thought it was both delicious and satisfying.

Team USA, I wish you luck!

Yeah, I'm Excited; So what?

Usually I am the person who is good at keeping her hopes in check. Not ridiculously raising hopes= no ridiculous disappointments. Now before you thing wow, she's pessimistic. Just remember that if you are reading this you probably know me a little better than to say that. Because I am not like that. I am hopeful, just not overly and definitely not when it comes to certain areas in life. There are other things to worry about. Whatever that doesn't really make sense.

Anyway this week the impossible has happened. No, I am not engaged. ahaha. I am so funny. But I have raised my hopes to a ridiculously high level about my life in general. And even though I am enjoying this high quite a bit, I know there is a low just around the corner. There always is isn't there? The higher you fly, the longer the and harder you fall. It's simple physics. But I am just excited about this week despite the hundred million things I have to do. I am excited not to go to bed until really late; to go to From the Heart, to have a dress rehearsal with the girls, to dance tomorrow, to go to the cancer benefit, to perform on friday, to dress up for class on friday (it's 80's day), to host my halloween dance party on saturday, to go to church and to do indexing, to hear the fireside and have From the Heart again. I am just excited. Forget that I have tests and quizzes galore and a million things to think about. I am excited that I will be seeing one of my favorite people on Monday, that it is almost Thanksgiving which means that it is almost Christmas =) I am excited to buy my contract for next semester at American Manor.I am excited for dace major auditions on Saturday too...which is weird because I should be freakingn out. LIFE IS EXCITING! Hopes, fly high, you have my permission.
Oh and I am listening to Celine right now...and makes everything better than it already is.

Um…Ok Life. You Win.

So, this week and sort of these past few days just proved to me once again that once you think you have everything figured out, or at least everything is good and under control the world decided to have a big laugh in your honor and throw everything that you thought was under control, out of control. No joke. Not that it was bad things that happened, quite the opposite- it is just going to take a lot to maintain control the rest of the semester/next semester. Awesome. Life is out of control. So maybe I should just get with the flow and let it be and stop trying to put it all back in order cause let’s face it, there is always something a little out of place.

My brain hurts. It won’t stop thinking about everything that I have to do. Silly brain.

Wish me luck…seriously though.

Was That a Good Idea? At Least it Was Fun.

Well, tonight was fun. My good friend Abbie and I got it into our heads last week that we wanted to go see a scary movie, because I for one, have always enjoyed the occasional scary movie. I get it from my mom.

My mom loves scary movies. Not stupid, paranormal, never gonna happen, when is this movie over, and what is the point of it kind of movies. Not horror movies, or super-sick-slashers, but thriller, the jump out at you, freak you out, you can see happening (maybe) kind. So, when I was younger, and by younger, I mean I really wasn’t that young, but younger than I am now, I would always watch scary movies with my mom. Old ones, new ones, it was a good time. I kind of start to crave them after a while. Just call me an adrenaline junkie…without all the extreme crap. Anyway, my sisters can’t really tough it out. No offense girls but you really can’t. But they already know that.

What does this have to do with anything? Not much. Basically it is why I thought it would be a great idea to go to this movie tonight called The Stepfather. Luckily for Abbie and myself, it is a Tuesday night in Rexburg Idaho so there were only two other people in the theater. Basically it was pretty scary and freaky and Abbie and I cuddled and held hands during all the scary parts though so I got through it.

Anyway I am now putting off sleep and watching the Disney channel. Awesome. Oh, well. At least it was fun and Abbie and I got make fools out of ourselves. That always makes for a good time.
