Numero Uno

1. Before I go to bed, my blankets have to be straight. Basically I make my bed every night before I get in a minute later and mess it up.
2. I can't draw straight lines
3. I've been told I'm awkward. I still don't know what they're talking about.
4. I have more sweaters than there are days in February.
5. I want a pearl engagement ring
6. I can't focus on one person talking when other people around me are or if there's music playing.
7. Everything sounds smarter in a British accent
8. My knuckles hide from me.
9. I hate hate hate the snow and the cold. It still baffles me that I came to college in Idaho. What was I thinking??
10. I hate how my toes look when they aren't polished.
11. I bake when I have a bad day
12. I have a REALLY obnoxious laugh. I don't mind it, but others do when I erupt into a fit of giggles in class.
13. Sometimes I try weird foods just so I can say that I did (chicken hearts anyone??)
14. My future children will have southern accents and will know how to sail
15. I aspire to be Paula Deen when I'm 60. Or at least write a cookbook!

I'm a Copycat

I'm a blog stalker. It happens.
So the other day, I was going through my list of blog updates and took a looksie at my friend Emilee's (you should check it out. She's great.). Well she stole something from her friend that I'm stealing from her. :) --Hope you don't mind Em!!!-- But I figured that I need to make up for being lame and not updating my blog regularly. So here's my goal. One post a day for a month. This is how I'm going to do it. prepare yourself.
day 1- recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself
day 2- the meaning behind your blog name
day 3- a picture of you and your friends

day 5- a picture of somewhere you've been to
day 6- favorite super hero and why
day 7- a picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you
day 8- short term goals for this month and why
day 9- something you're proud of in the past few days
day 10- songs you listen to when you are happy, sad, bored, hyped, mad
day 11- another picture of you and your friends
day 12- how you found out about blogger and why you have one
day 13- a letter to someone
day 14- a picture of you and your family
day 15- put your ipod on shuffle: first 10 songs that play

day 28- a picture of you from last year and now, how have you changed since then?
day 29- in this past month, what have you learned
day 30- you favorite song

Overwhelmed? Yeah I know. Tell me about it. But here goes nothing!

FALLing down

Autumn time... I never really liked fall when I was younger, but being in Idaho, I have a newfound appreciation for this season. 0 humidity= 0 crunchy leaves. By all means it doesn't make sense. Wouldn't the DRY air make DRY leaves??? Life is confusing. I digress. I miss the crunch of leaves, the crisp air, and the football games. BYU-I makes me sad sometimes.

Send me mail

One thing college students love:
getting letters and packages!
feel free to send me one :)

maturity

So being a sophomore in college, I should be acting like a real responsible adult by now, right? Wrong. In fact, dead wrong.
We had a little roommate bonding Saturday night and wreaked havoc throughout Rexburg.
We are adults.

I wish I could write funny things

I love reading blogs. especially when whoever is writing can make me laugh out loud in the middle of my math class from reading it. It's a real talent. Don't get me wrong, I think I'm funny- probably because I always laugh at my own jokes.
I digress, this is one of many parts of my "catch up" posts.
DANIEL GOT HOME!
after being gone for two whole years, my big brother Daniel came home from his mission the week of my birthday. What a present! He was really only home for 5 days, but luckily I get to see him while we're at school since he's only 4 hours away from me! It's so great to have him home!
MY BIRTHDAY!!!
well I'm finally 19! which means- well actually it really doesn't mean anything. I'm still a teenager, I've been legal for a year, I can buy lotto tickets- but wait i could do that last year- I could serve a mission, if i weren't a girl... basically 19 is a super lame age but it didn't stop me from celebrating my mediocre age!!
I went out on uncle Frankie's boat with Kelly, John, Daniel, Taylor, Becca and Aunt Nancy. I LOVE annapolis and the water and boats and basically everything about it. Afterwords we went back to Frankie and Nancy's house for steak burgers (yeah tell me about it. i was elated.) and presents!! it was such a blast!

Wild wild west

Well i'm back in Idaho and so far i'm LOVING it!! I had so much fun with my iteam and Brooke and I moved into our new apartment (next door from last semester- so far I know.) and we got thi big room!! it's wonderful. Pictures will come soon :) -whenever it's clean again. it's a true challenge for me, I'm telling you.
I've got a whole new set of roomies, too! (except for Brookie. it would be tragic if she were to leave me, which is why i'm forbidding her to transfer to Utah. What am I supposed to do? make new friends?? I don't think so.)
So I feel like I really have to play catch-up since I haven't really posted in forever and a day- not that anyone actually reads this too often, except for maybe John who is bored at work. In which case if you're reading this, go file papers or something! You aren't getting paid to read blogs all day!
But the catch up posts will come soon as well. Right now I just wanted to post some pictures up of my Iteam and my roomies!! Gosh I love Idaho...

Playing ultimate with my iTeam
