Why do I not live in Norway? I need to go here.

"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." -Albert Einstein

Once upon a time we went to Uganda and all we drank was Fruity Mirinda. I want one soooooo bad right now.

Everyone is either sick right now, or is recently getting over their sickness. Bleh

I was reminded today of my old favorite quote from high school, "if you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything." Now this was back when I was struggling with temptation from my non lds friends (k just to clarify they weren't tempting me on purpose or anything, I just had a different lifestyle..luv you guyz) and needed a constant reminder to remember who I was and what I stood for. I honestly haven't thought too much about that quote in a while; I suppose I didn't see the need to when I don't really have those same temptations anymore. But who am I kidding? We are faced with temptations every day of our lives! Just because I'm not one of the only mormons in my school doesn't mean I don't need to focus on being strong and standing up for what I believe in. I think it's a fantastic motto for all of us to live by. I automatically think of it from a religious stand point, but it doesn't have to be religious at all. It is so important to have opinions, and to have a voice. Granted I am definitely not the most opinionated person, but I have made certain decisions, developed my own views of the world, and set standards for myself that if I didn't do/have, I don't know what kinds of decisions I would be making. Moral of the story: remember who you are, amigos, and don't let people/circumstances influence you for the worst.

This WILL be my husband and I in 50 years.

Sometimes I feel like if I could be granted one wish, it would be to have a soundtrack to my life alwayyyys.

Smiths was having a sale! Yay for 3 boxes of cheez-its. And probably the only thing I'll eat for the next week.

Sometimes flour gets thrown all over one of my roommates and sometimes it doesn't. Last night it did. At least we were finally forced to mop our floors. Lizzie girl you're a champ.

This is strange.

I am always craving white chocolate mousse soft serve ice cream from TCBY. And I don't even love ice cream, really. I wish the mall was open 24/7 because that shiite sounds great right now.

word of the day: certiorari

I think it would do me some good to go see this right now. Aaaanyone?

New live album by Jonsi? Don't mind if I do.

I am now officially recognized at the Sev as the "girl who buys chocolate donuts."
