Good Morning Starshine, the Earth Says "Hello!"

(In which I manage to blog about NOTHING too important. Enjoy)

 

So actually it is afternoon, possibly evening for some of you, but either way, that is NOT what the earth was saying to me this morning.

It was more like....."Go back to sleep. You deserve it for doing so much math last night".

You may be wondering what an art major is doing math for.....

Well it turns out I am much better and faster at math than I remembered so I helped Garett with his math homework until I was about to fall asleep.

But did I sleep? 

NOPE.

Instead I did more math for fun.

Reintroducing Kenken:

I'm cool, I know. 

And suddenly I am wondering why I am not a math major, 

since strangely enough, I really miss it. 

My morning consisted of starting and getting half of my science project done.

Part 2 will be finished after work.

My teeth look prettier, thanks Catherine,

despite this being the worst fake smile in the world. 

My ring sparkles like crazy in the sunlight, but you can't tell in pictures. =[ 

I miss the Hunger Games.

 I guess Garett will just have to introduce me to some new books.

This is for you Hannah:

 I miss you!

A picture of my wedding dress (sorta) in which you can tell NOTHING about the dress itself.

Sorry Garett. xP

I am addicted to homemade popcorn chicken.

Restaurant popcorn chicken will never compare...

Garett and I have too much fun semi freezing water into cubes

Over and over and over and over again. 

I found a delicious new recipe of creamy rotini and chicken primavera.  

Which my roommate spilled the leftovers on the floor, threw them away and did not tell, though I watched her do it. 

Also congrats to Matt B! Who finally got his mission call! 

(I won't announce where until he has given me permission)

But best of luck to you Matt! You'll be a great missionary!

Sorry you'll miss my wedding thought =[

It is a beautiful day out  and I am trying to pretend like work doesn't exist for a few more minutes.

Last day of work. 

One last project.

(Aced my family foundations finals)

Now to clean and pack, which I have not started....

But instead spent much needed and missed quality time with Garett.

And he made me dinner. (It's becoming a Wednesday tradition)

California here I come!

I should stop eating in bed,
I have no Emily (my dog) to
blame for the crumbs anymore.

A Happy Morning Indeed

I got to sleep in for the first time in a week! =D Heck this is the first time I have gotten more than 6 hours of sleep in a night since.........awhile.........art homework is to blame....xP

I know this picture looks somewhat depressing but it is a happy, welcoming sight to me.

Just a short little update, I went to Matt's soccer game (guy in my ward that Nikki likes) last night with Nikki. Come to find out they were playing Tyler B (Albert's roommate)'s team. So though I originally came for Matt for Nikki, I ended up cheering for Tyler. But if you saw Tyler you would understand. He is adorable. Yes I just called an RM adorable, but if you knew him....he is so skinny and little......(Yes I realize I have no room to talk) but he's adorable. Just trust me on this one. It's okay because Tyler's team won anyway and Nikki got asked out on a date for Friday by Matt. So everyone won last night.

Now to eat some lunch! =D

Oh and someone was playing Beethoven's 5th Symphony this morning. It made me happy! =D And miss dad and Aaron.

I've got a lovely bunch of cocoanuts
do-da-lee-do
There they are all standing in a row,
bom-Bom-BOM
big ones, small ones, some as big as your head,
(And bigger)
give em a twist, a flick of the wrist,
that's what the showman said....

I Just Came To Say Hello

This weekend has been incredible! Everything about it was wonderful! I will do my best to give you a run down of it without leaving out too much.

Friday I went to the temple and it was wonderful, best way to start off a day. Not to mention the weather was lovely. Then that night, Kaylin, Tyler M, Jaide, Emily, Tyler B, Stirling, Nikki and I went and saw X:Men First Class at the drive-in. I recommend seeing it! =D

After a lovely time watching the movie, we (minus Tyler M and Kaylin) went to Porter Park. We swung on the swings, played freeze tag, where I slid and fell from being chased by Stirling (like I said, don't try to back track in flats on wet grass...not smart). I died laughing when I ate it, and it was completely worth the stains.

We sort of attempted the whipped cream game and it landed on my forehead. Good thing it was dark and no one could see too well.

Saturday like I said, I had 2 photoshoots. One of Cacia and her roommates and then one of Camilo's friend. Check out the ones of Cacia and her friends here. They were dressed as fairies and a blast to work with. More will be put up later. I'm still working on downsizing my favorites list. Went from 672 to 152. Getting there slowly but surely. For the record, these are unedited. I have this thing where I believe pictures should be as natural as they can be and only minor touch ups should be made.

This is one of my favorites. This is an all natural picture, no editing done.
(Below: Andrea and Stephanie, click to enlarge, it looks better bigger)

And this is my other favorite. This is Cacia and Stephanie.

But yes, taking pictures was heaven to me. I love everything about it. Working with the people, trying new things and loving it all. I just wish I didn't have back problems making me have to quit after 5 hours of taking pictures, but still worth every minute of it.

Today we had church, though I had a hard time staying awake. After church Albert and I had dinner with our cousin Stephanie and her husband. It was lots of fun and the food was heavenly. We played hacky sack, some wii and did a puzzle (I thought of you mom <3).

Then I came back home for Sunday Night Dessert (SND) where we had more people than ever before and made homemade oreos. Fun was had by all but the real fun was when the numbers died off. Matt tricked Brett into eating a cookie filled with Crisco instead of icing. Brett ate it all. It was quite enjoyable to watch.

I gave 2 guys, Matt B (Not pictured) and Tom Bugg (He's one of those people you have to say his first and last name, just the way it is) piggy back rides. Matt is easily 150lbs I think and Tom is not far behind him. Yes I gave THEM piggy back rides. Who is beasty? That's right, ME!!!

They were impressed and so was I. Then Tom gave Nikki and I a piggy back ride together and then Matt gave all 3 of us a piggy back ride. We are full of beastiness! =D

After settling down somewhat, Matt, Tom, Conrade, Emily, Nikki, Jaide and I all sat around talking about our biggest fears and terrible/funny experiences. It was a blast!

All in all tonight was wonderful and this weekend was amazing. Best weekend ever!

Hope you all had equally amazing ones

I just came
to say hello
and eat some Crisco
