Weber State Weber State Great. Great. Great.

Oh it's been a while since I've blogged. Possibly because my summer was pretty mundane and not worthy of mention, except for the fact that I worked
at Ross Dress for Less and got really good deals on shiiii, aaand me and Michael went to
good Ol' AZ to visit my grandma and show Michael where I lived all last summer.

We went to the touristy places like 'Jim Gray's Rock Shop' and 'The Petrified Forest'.

That was all good and fun but my favorite was probably the Mexican food and hanging out with old time friend Norval.

What a guy, he's like 80 odd years and is still bouncin' around in his old dusty pickup.

We also hit up Winslow, AZ, don't know if you recall the song by the Eagles 'Take it Easy' but one verse says "Well, I'm a standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona and such a fine sight to see "

and we did just that.

On the way home we drove around Canyon De Chelly [can-yen duh shay] in Chinle, AZ which was super pretty.

and went through Moab and climbed (in the rain) Wilson Arch. Good photo op territory.

as well as hit up Hole 'N' the Rock , Michael had never been inside.

and that was that

So that's about it. I've now started school and am in my second week. Wahoooo. We'll see how this semester goes. Hopefully well...

GO Wildcats!

I'll try to blog more later.

I fell in love again, all things go.

two years ago I was graduating high school.

now i'm finishing at Snow.

within those two years my life has evolved ever so greatly into something I had never imagined.

there's so much that could happen in the next two years.

even the next two weeks is going to be full of adventure.

I get butterflies thinking about it :D

tally ho!

Gaudy

Sometimes when no one's home and I'm left alone to my own devices I do my make up really really dark and take pictures.

Juvenile I know.

Then I find myself with 40+ pictures of the same thing.

I put them in a whole album that's all me.

Vain is what you're thinking i'm sure.

But It's what I do.

and I love it.

It's going to take forever to get this make up off.

WANT

Someday this will be mine-

Things

Why is that i procrastinate so much?

Why do humans in general procrastinate so much?

They should come up with a solution for this common human occurring problem.

They do for everything else.

i don't really know who "they" are, but i'm sure they'll figure something out.

in the meantime i'll probably keep procrastinating until "they" fix it.

c'est lav vie

Cherish It

When I want a day to go by sooner so that the weekend comes quicker it always seems to take longer. And when the weekend finally comes it goes by a lot faster. Why can’t I take time from the dismal times to make it go by faster and put that time I took into the cherished times I look forward to as to make it extended?

I guess it wouldn’t be considered cherished or dismal anymore. Their definitions depend on each other. Without a good who would know what bad was? (and vice versa) I suppose it’s those dismal prolonged times that you suffer through that make where you would like to be a lot more worthwhile, making you truly cherish it. The dismal times help you see what a cherished time is. What a cherished time means.

Bad is what makes us see the good. Bad is always contrasting, comparing, and creating ways to realize those moments of happiness. He’s just doing his job, sometimes a little too well.

However if you can realize that there’s an equal amount of good to the bad, what you’ve worked through has meaning. Because you’ve helped good reach its potential and in doing that you’ve played a vital role in the creation of happiness. You’ve showed good what it’s made of.

All the while finding out what you’re made of.

Learn

I want to learn how to play the accordion so bad.

So I downloaded the Accordion App on my Ipod. Close enough.

New Yeer Breakfast.

One Man Band

Epiphany

At this point in time i am

not looking for someone to love, but looking for what i love to do.

i.e.

Men are lame and i'm just going to focus on school.

{the end}

Great Expectations

Before i came to college i had various notions on what it was going to be like, what i was going to do, who i was going to be.

So far none of those have come to pass.

Excluding the obvious ones like living on my own and doing my own laundry.

[duh]

It just goes to show that your perception of life and how you see yourself in it is a lot different than what is true or what will be.

So plan for the best, and realize that it's not going to always be what you want it to be.

it might be worse

it might be better

don't get your hopes up.

My Kind of Sunday

Lazy Sunday

pictorus

Usually i'm a photo fiend however since my camera is dead i haven't really been getting my fill of photosity.

So here are a few pixxx to get by...

Me and Taj

I was wounded during my hardcore wave jumping.

{Believe me the wound is there}

BFFL Auntie Marcy & Lauren

russian

Lately my inner monologue has russian accent.

What does that even mean?

3292.12 Miles Traveled So Far...

i know i know it's been since january...but i'm kind of a monthly blogger anyways.i'll admit that.

anywho

my summer-

i wish i could say that i've journeyed through the African terrain helping diseased tortoises recuperate to once again be thrown back into the wild. That would be really awesome and all but i am more than happy to say that i have been privlaledged enough to work for my Grandparents while they go through a really tough time in their lives.

Gma has breast cancer that has matastisized to her liver

Gpa has a Glioblastoma, or GBM tumor of the brain

Since May i've traveled approximately 3292.12 miles (that doesn't count the flyer miles)

The Gparents live in Arizona and their treatments are in California, hence the traveling.

So they hired me to help.
Surprisingly it's gone by really fast.

Even though i haven't gone boating in Lake Powell or been out tanning everyday by the pool, i've had a good summer.

Spending time with family members who don't have much time left is worth missing out on a summer full of adventures.

happy new year!

i suppose seeing as it is a new year i shall post a new years post! one to start off many more to come...hopefully.

so here are some pictures from my uh...quaint new years.

The girls :]

the closest thing to a new years kiss...as you can see i'm barely touching the cheek.

Driving to Wingers...mmmh mmmh mmmh

Me and Nicole got ready together

and apparently my face making repertoire isn't too vast...

hmmm. well that was fun.

anyways it's a new semester here at snow.

pretty general classes.

taking yoga however...

yeah that's me...

don't sweat it, if you try really hard you could be as awesome as meone day

maybe

SNOW

i know i haven't posted anything in a while, school's really got me keeping busy, but it's a good busy. SNOW really is the best place on earth :] i have the best roommates and friends. Even though Ephraim may seem like there's nothing to do here, it's quite the opposite. For the first time i played racquetball, not well, but still, I had a blast!

Also, i'm taking ceramics and was able to create my first BOWL!
so cute. it's so nice to be able to throw a pot, whether i'm stressed out, feeling down, or just plain bored. it's open 24/7 so that's nice.

we also like to go on walks, usually on Sundays...this Sunday they repainted the lines in the road...and ya know, i'm rather quite mischievous...and well i couldn't help but leave my mark....

well that's all for now.

i'll try and stay up to date!
-lo

cataclysmic

i think i have the worst luck
not only do i have to have crap knees, but i also have to have a huge "A" scar on one of them.
AND to make everything just a little bit more awesome, i go and hit my knee, splitting open the scar once more.

i think i'm going to go medieval and wear full armor.

i love my boys

Jax will forever be mah baby


Oliver is my buddy.
Oh i just love him

moped mash

i suck at driving i guess.....
