Wisdom teeth

Right now I am really craving pizza.What I have eaten these past 2 days:– Danimals smoothies– milkshakes– yogurt (I think I’m sick of yogurt for the first time all year) I am really cold and am craving some tomato soup. But we don’t have any. Love this wisdom teeth experience. I feel like I’ve lost […]

There’s something about…

I can’t sleep, so I’m going to write. There’s something about a song that just relates to you in so many ways. 3 road trips back and fort to Arizona within 2 weeks days mountains. tall boys. Michael Buble’s Christmas album. meeting a new person. opening up to people. letting people open up to you, […]

I love my Savior. I love His gospel. I love His prophets. I love the Bible. I love studying the New Testament. I love the Book of Mormon. I love my family. I love my roommates. I love my friends. I love my job. I love my freshmen. I love my height. I love my […]

curse of breaking things

I have a curse.  No really, I do.  And while I write this I can’t even laugh at myself anymore.  I just want to cry. It all began with my Dell computer a year ago.  Don’t even know what happened, it just decided not to turn back on again.  Started making weird beeping noises and […]

Remembering Names

“Remember that a man’s name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language.” – Dale Carnegie, How to Win Friends and Influence People For the past couple of weeks, I have started my new job as a Peer Mentor through BYU’s Freshman Mentoring program.   As soon as I came to BYU a year ago and met […]

How Great Thou Art

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder, Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made; I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy power throughout the universe displayed. Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee, How great Thou art, How great Thou art. When I look at the stars, […]

on-campus to off-camps shock

The New Heritage Halls were wonderful. (Click to see pictures of them). They were beautiful and I have nothing bad to say about them ever.  We were the first ones to live in them. They were spacious and clean and wonderful.  Never-been-slept-in beds, never-been-sat-on couches, never-been-flushed toilets, and never-been-used showers. Then I look at my […]

Clark Kent

I’ve had this blog-post sitting in my drafts folder ever since I watched all four Superman movies featuring Christopher Reeves and the 2006 version Superman Returns with Brandon Routh in California with Seth, Isaac, and Aunt Sarah.  After that movie marathon I fell in love with Superman. this is Brandon Routh with his “hipster” glassessee – he’s […]

some quotes and some change

do you like the title of my blog?  because I’m considering changing it.  I love my title, I just don’t know if people can remember it because it’s in Latin.  But the more I think of it, I’ll just keep it 🙂 My mom found this quote, and I think it describes just what I’m […]

mindless

some days you just have to be mindless and not put a lot of thought towards anything and just be lazy.im doing that right now.see, i’m not capitalizing anything.  actually, it’s more effort for me to not capitalize anything because it bugs me so much when people don’t. so. I’m switching back. Today I watched […]

This is what we call the real world, children.

I feel like I’m being pushed into the real world all at once.  Yes, I know I already went through my first year of college.  But somehow, my second year seems to be more of the “real world.”Like paying for something that equals weeks worth of labor.Submitting health insurance information – I know nothing about […]

Some outcomes of my summer

All of these things have a story behind them.  Deeply personal stories, but these are the outcomes. This summer has reaffirmed some things for me. Such as: – I know my major! (Anthropology, as it has always been) – I am going to backpack Europe sometime in the future.  – Someday, I will have children […]

I’m not you, I’m me.

Rachel wanted a purple popsicle. Isaac wanted a red popsicle. So Rachel wanted a red popsicle. Isaac was upset – he didn’t want Rachel to copy him. “You can’t have a red popsicle! I’m having a red popsicle!” Rachel then replied, “I love you – that’s why I do the things you do!” Isaac changed […]

Dodger Stadium

I went to Dodger Stadium – three weeks ago.  I know, I’m a little late on the blog-post.  I’ve never been before, and I’ve always wanted to (hence the bucket-list).  I am a Dodgers fan after all.  I finally got to sing “So it’s root, root, root for the DODGERS, if they don’t win it’s […]
