December 28, 2010


My best friend is getting married today. Laurrren I love you.

December 24, 2010


Skyped twice in one night, this doesn't normally happen. Miss you guyzzz.

December 23, 2010


Remember this little guy? Yep I bought it.

December 22, 2010


Hey friend I miss ya. Hope yer loving Floyds Knobs. Come back and get your xmas gift from mi madre. Byeeeee

December 20, 2010

My favorite Christmas gift so far? A pecan the mailman at work gave me, with "Merry Xmas" carved into it. Oh Phil, you are wonderful.

FYI, my stumbleupon addiction has resurfaced.
I've been kind of selfish lately, focusing on the "unfair" aspects of my life. When in reality, I truly am one very blessed individual. Sure my life has drastically changed over the last year, but who's life isn't constantly changing? I know that I need to stop comparing my life to others because no one is without struggles. My life is not better or worse than anyone's around me, it is just different. That is something I definitely need to remember. Everyone fights their own battles. Things happen. All we can really do is take these experiences, learn from them, and move on.

Someone's current status on facebook says: " 'It wasn't me' is still playing on the radio?! " This is no lie. Like I said, that song is EVERYWHERE.

"The distance between the busy activities of man and the pristine beauties of tranquil nature is often not miles, but rods, often but the ability to alter one's mental attitude towards it all. Indeed, one's love of nature may be such that he may at times not even care to orient himself to the crowds and noises of modern life but, on the contrary, to think of brooks, flowers, birds, and trees while all about him are men, pavement, and buildings.

Whatever one's vocation, in the busy activities of life, moments of bliss often come to the eyes or ears of him who lives nature, for it takes but a few notes of a wild song, a glance at a blooming vista, to awaken memories that are in a sense the realities of existence."

-Claude T. Barnes

Guess what? I have decided to minor in environmental science !

Oh, Mail Services.

First & Fourth. BYU students are so mature. Again, I love shared libraries on itunes.

I'm really in the mood to go back in time and see the dinosaurs roam free around ancient Utah. (thank you geography of utah class)

December 13, 2010

I recommend watching the movie Hot Fuzz if you are in the mood for some good british humor, which I'm sure you are.

December 9, 2010

I've been on a Seinfeld kick lately. "Kick" meaning I've only actually watched it the past two nights after work. It's totally making me miss home and having it be on every night before dinner. Oh, Massachusetts.

December 8, 2010

2:30 in the morning and all I want is a chocolate donut from the sev. Anywayzzz, enjoy these cool old National Geographic photos.

"Man prides himself on harnessing nature with machines and making it do his bidding, but after all his real joy is derived from simplicity without those multiform aids, from his nearness to nature in its untroubled ways." Claude T. Barnes
I feel like I always blog about lyrics, but there's just so many lame lyrics out there I can't help it. Peter Gene Hernandez, better known as "Bruno Mars" (first of all, what?) has released a new song "Grenade" that I don't really understand. If you listen to the chorus, it would sound as if he is really in love with this girl he is singing to: "I'd catch a grenade for ya, throw my hand on a blade for ya, I'd jump in front of a train for ya, you know I'd do anything for ya...." It sounds like he would die for this girl, but then the verses have lines like: "Black, black, black and blue, beat me till I'm numb, tell the devil I say 'hey' when you get back to where you're from, mad woman bad woman that's just what you are, yeah you smile in my face then rip the breaks out my car." You probably shouldn't be willing to jump in front of a train for someone who rips the breaks out of your car. Just sayin.

Christmas decorations are officially UP. If you are in need of some Christmas cheer, come on over to Terrace Ten.

Yes I actually did try and open a bottle of krazy glue with my teeth and now I have the same problem. Holy moly me oh my.
It's snowing snowing snowing

November 27, 2010

Anyone have any ideas on how to make some money...? Should I become a bartender's apprentice?

Guess what? I'm totally going here. Forreal. And yes, I did change the font on my blog.

November 25, 2010

I would just like to announce that I am no longer using Safari and you can now use the popular "new tab" feature on my computer. In keeping with the spirit of the Holiday season, I'd like to publicly express my gratitude for Google Chrome. Happy Thanksgiving, amigos.

Blizzard '10 update: 10:30 pm and it is not snowing
There is currently widespread panic in Utah over the severe snow storm that is coming. Campus closed at 3 pm today. I went to Smiths to buy a couple things and there was literally no where to park. People are freaaaking out. And guess what? there were still blue skies at like 430 pm. Calm down, everyone. (I'm going to look like an ass when I wake up tomorrow and there is like 6 feet of snow on the ground) But for now I'd say the panic is a bit unnecessary.

"You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream" <--what exactly does this mean?

Harry Potter music and a pretty sunset? Yes, please. I am definitely my mother's daughter. (I'm in green)

Happy Birthday to my fellow pale skinned best friend, Kim Hassell. I love you, Hasslaahhhh. Here's a classic photo of the "whities" just for you.

November 13, 2010

Oh my goshhh I slept for 11 hours last night. I went to bed at 9. That hasn't happened in 12 years.

November 11, 2010

Hey, maybe I will become a skydiving instructor as my profession. Hm.
Do you realize that in exactly one week from a few hours from now we will be seeing part one of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows?

November 10, 2010

The bathroom in the wilk on campus has automatic toilets, automatic toilet paper dispensers (what the?), automatic sinks, automatic soap dispensers, aaandd automatic hand dryers. Necessary?

November 9, 2010


Daddio.

November 8, 2010

I'm going to promote Conan's show on my blog because I know so many people read it. Welp, watch Conan tonight on TBS.

We love our bread, we love our water, but most of all we love each other. And we love late night mac pictures, too.

November 4, 2010

Today, I met someone new. One of the first things he said to me was that I look like a chemistry major. Should I be offended?

November 3, 2010

I have four tests this week, starting today. Geez Louise.

November 2, 2010



K, another reason for liking the library on campus: all the shared libraries on iTunes. Please look at the second from the bottom, "The Precious". I am in love with whoever named their music library that. Who wants to watch Lord of the Rings with me now?

Sufjaaan. Was great.

I have this horrible habit of accidentally killing bugs while trying to save them. It happened again yesterday morning. It was aawfuullllll, but really. Ps Happy Halloween, biatches.

It's currently 3:10 AM and now all I wanna do is watch 3:10 to Yuma. PS if you ever want to know anything about the Tamil minority in Sri Lanka, ask away. I think I know everything there is to know about them because of this gosh darn paper.

October 26, 2010


Take me to Peyto Lake?
Currently at work sending something to Abdulhadi Ebrahim Al-Sehlawi in Qatar. That's quite a name.
Ryguy thank you for making me laugh harder than anyone else, even if it is in the middle of our Old Testament class.

October 25, 2010

Great weekend. My brother got married, Jonsi rocked my world & my roommate turned 21. Now onto a group presentation, a 10 page paper, & a test. Nottt so great.

October 21, 2010





My brother is getting married today. GAH. I love you, James.

October 20, 2010

I heard "I'm Gonna Be (500 miles)" by the Proclaimers twice within ten minutes on the radio. Tonight is a good night !
I feel like Ben Affleck may or may not have quite a lame-o reputation to most of the world. This reputation is kind of justified, having starred in such films as Daredevil, Jersey Girl, and Gigli. I personally think he is pretty great though. He directed Gone Baby Gone and also directed/starred in The Town, which were both very successful in my opinion. Maybe I just like them because they take place in Bahston. Or maybe I like them because they are great movies. You should see them. Maybe your opinion of Ben will change, but maybe it won't. And maybe I should say "maybe" one more time. Maybe.

Hahaha, Leoooo. Call me when you're ready to date me.

There is currently a semi-macho man sitting a table away from me at the library and I can hear "Poker Face" playing loud and clear from his headphones. AND someone's phone just started ringing and it was the Harry Potter theme song. Who knew the library was so great?

October 15, 2010

It's October 15 2010 and do you know what that means? I have officially had my phone for two years. Happy birthday Carl! You da you da best. And thank you Bod for officially giving my phone a name.

October 14, 2010

You know the white witch from Chronicles of Narnia? Yeah I saw a guy that looked EXACTLY like her today.
Is it bad that I find out about current events from the "somewhat topical" category at someecards.com?

October 13, 2010

Sometimes I get mad/annoyed when people play the piano in the wilk, because I know I'm trying to study and so are 50 other people. But then I remember how great it is to play the piano, so I say go for it.

Happy belated Columbus Day. Ps Conan starts back up in less than a month !

Aly Archer has no teeth. It's a mystery. Love, Liz and Stacey.

October 12, 2010

I was called "man" yesterday by two different friends. You know like, "hey man!" I should probably stop shopping in the men's department at Target.

Got spiritually uplifted this weekend. Thank you, General Conference. See you in April!

I think my favorite part of going to Uganda is getting friend requests on facebook from strange Ugandan men, over a year later. The most recent request coming from a man named Christmas Austen. Yep, Christmas.
For the record, my brother heard that Shaggy song on the radio the other day.
