Give me for my friends and neighbors wild men, not tame ones.

"When I'm 80 years old and sitting in my rocking chair, I'll be reading Harry Potter. And my family will say to me, 'After all this time?' And I will say, 'Always.'" - Alan Rickman

Snape has such a big heart. :)

whaddaguy.

Can't stop won't stop listening to this song.

..too far?

Lorenzo Snow on hunting: "While moving slowly forward in pursuit of something to kill, my mind was arrested with the reflection on the nature of my pursuit--that of amusing myself by giving pain and death to harmless, innocent creatures that perhaps had as much right to life and enjoyment as myself. I realized that such indulgence was without any justification, and feeling condemned, I laid my gun on my shoulder, returned home, and from that time to this have felt no inclination for that murderous amusement." !!!

Baby, where'd you get your body from? I got it from my mama.

Omg. I LOVED this song circa 1998. Would it be my fault if I could turn you on? Dang, Merril Bainbridgeeeeeeeee.

Romantic evening in with myself and the engaged couples. HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

So I was thinking, when little insects land on spider webs, do they know what's coming? Like, is it a common fear to be afraid of spiders in the insect world? Or do they just land on some sticky substance and have noo idea they're totally about to get chomped to bits? I witnessed this happen this morning to a little fly. But he did not get eaten because I took him off the web with a pen. Sorry spider, but not really.

TERRIBLE DREAM LAST NIGHT.

Literally sent something to Banff yesterday at work. Gahhhh. I almost jumped into the little envelope to go along with it. Here's a picture to remind you how beautiful that place is.

"I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage. When they are real, they are not glass threads or frostwork, but the solidest thing we know."

We really are nothing without our relationships with other people.

There's been too many sunny days lately...in serious need of some overcast. And in serious need of some Dr. Pepper. And in serious need of some motivation for this paper. I'll just pretend that someone is leaving me a treat on my car that I will find in the morning. OK. Now I begin paper. Here goes nottttthinggg.....bye.

Leo came to visit and we had a grand ol' time.

I love that little black cat more than anything.

This one too. It's better.

Not a fan of the video...but beautiful song. It's quite melancholy and beautiful and peaceful and simple. Can't help but feel content with things. Listen to it.

Oh my gossshhhhhh yesterday was my phone's third birthday. Happy Birthday Carl.

I wish I could take the full moon lift ride every night of my life. So stinkin pretty. In other news, go tigers and cardinals.

This just feels right.

lately.

This is still funny to me. Happy Columbus Day, fellas. It's the most wonderful time of the year !

Take me back to the winter wonderland where the moose roam free.

A Town Called Panic (English Version Trailer)

oh man, this movie. i kinda loved it.

Today is Lauren's birthday, so how did I celebrate? I ended my meat fast last night. In reality this had nothing to do with Lauren's birthday but the point is I now eat meat again. Happy birthday Lauren!

creepy

It's October, time to start blogging again. Also, this is an image that appeared when i google searched "October". Take it as you will.

Come on Eileen has been stuck in my head for the past two weeks.

I overheard this reunion on campus today:

"James?! Don't I know you?"

"Well..you look familiar."

"We played baseball together in the 6th grade!"

That is oneeee impressive memory.

oh lizzie girl, i love you a lot. HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

feeling nostalgic.

OOHHH school. I'm kind of excited. But also nervous. I'm trying not to take my new (terrible) ID picture as a bad omen for the semester. Trust me, it's bad. Like "computer hacker" bad. As in, I look like a computer hacker. (says a friend who witnessed the ID) YIKES. Bring on the hook-handed teachers and lo0o0ong reading assignments, biatch. Ay yiyiyiyi

School starts tomorrow. I was really excited, but as it approaches, the fear and dread is starting to set in. I'm mostly afraid of my 8 am class, of which I am actually taking willingly (yes I am a changed woman). To all you BYUers: good luck tomorrow on your first day. Better have an impressive FDO (first day outfit) planned! You better believe I'm rollin to campus in spandex and chacos. Maybe not. But probably.

Earthquake?

This financial aid process is the worst everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Take me to banff.

Do yourself a huge favor and watch this video.

Hurry! Head on over to itunes to watch a free episode of Clarissa Explains it All. Classic.

This is the most tender/strange thing I've seen in a while. Look at the little belugaaaaaa

i'm somewhat addicted to map quizes online right now. why do i suck so bad at south america always?

I just discovered this gem. Oh I do love you Lauren.

Courage, also known as fortitude, is the ability to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty or intimidation. It can be divided into "physical courage" — in face of physical pain, hardship, and threat of death — and "moral courage" — in the face of shame, scandal, and discouragement

Is this real?

Why do I choose to sleep on the floor of my bedroom instead of in my actual bed? Really though. I legitimately enjoy sleeping places other than my bed (couch, floor,dirt). All you analytical people out there, tell me what this says about myself. And also tell me if I was supposed to use 'other then' or 'other than' because I can't quite remember. Gracias and good night.

I read Jurassic Park (the book) before going to sleep in hopes that I will have a dream like Jurassic Park (the movie). Not that I want to be torn to shreds or anything, but I'm loving dinosaurs right now. It has yet to happen....
