Found it. . .

I found it. . . threading. It is WAY worse than plucking or waxing but makes your eyebrows look amazing! So as my life as a "stay at home mom" I decided to get my eye brows done, then also went ahead and bought too much at target ( sorry dad) two new swimsuits were necessary :).

Graduation



I did it! I am a BYU Alumni- It was a great day. My parents came up, we ate, we sat a lot and I stumbled down the Marriott Center Stairs and across the stage. It was such a good feeling, I have put in a lot of work over the past few years at the Y, lots of decisions made, lots of spiritual experiences ( THANKS MOM AND DAD) and plenty of BYU Ice Cream and Mint Brownies to fill in the cracks. Now on to Law School. . . :)

de la Mancha

As much Don Quijote's crazy adventures, I wish Spanish Literature 441 was not so STINKING hard!!! I am a senior, I graduate in two days. . . you think in 2 years I am going to remember Carmen LaForet? No because as much as I love the poem " Nada" I wish I didn't have such a bad experience trying to remember you for my test. I am nervous... scared... stressed... nauseous. We will see how this goes tonight. . . but then I am done.

The HORROR







This Saturday I had decided I was going to fulfill an item on my bucket list, I ran the SLC half marathon in pretty good time too. . . I even have a shirt and this picture to prove it... but because of that I have to wear this for three weeks ( fractured foot) which means I have to wear FLATS to graduation- the horror.

Three things. . .







I wouldn't mind being on the back of this bike all summer driving through the mountains. . . with my camera. . . and drinking diet coke.

Lately


These last few days have been a little. . . stressful. Between finals, work and trying to decide on law school, boys ( or lack of) there is this thing called BYU arbitration court. We are BYU "suing" our management company. . . long story short, yesterday while we were in "court" the lawyer representing them was SO rude, while he was personally attacking me, this is the quote that popped into my head ( without the poppy background). I don't know the outcome yet, but I was surprised how rude they were after their main argument was that they are resepectful to their tenants, publicly attacking me? Not respectful.
On a lighter note though, because of the stress I made the BEST dinner last night. Parmesan encrusted chicken, with an arugula salad on top with a lemon vinaigrette, purple potatoes, rosemary foccacia bread, cake with whipped cream and black berries. It was quite good, and quite impressive I would say. Then headed out to see " Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" it was hilarious, it is at the Hale theater and I recommend it to everyone!!
So let's hope things start looking up. . . :)

Love it!!!

Social commentary

Do any of you dread the doorstep scene after a date? It must just be me? I get so awkward and trip over my words and am thinking something eloquent " Thanks for the wonderful dinner and ( insert activity here). You are great ( fantastic actually) we should do this again. Have a great night" Easy right?? WRONG. I usually end up saying something really STUPID. . . whoops. . .
Dear cute boy I went out with.. . I do think you are great and I am eloquent despite my stupid comments on my doorstep Friday night. Can't win them all I guess :).

Michelle Branch

So if I could be anyone, I would love to be her. She is my favorite! I discovered an old song of her's and I have listened to it ALL DAY. . . it is so romantic!

Part of "Together"

Doesn't matter how long that it takes you
Cuz I'll always be right by your side
And weven when darkness awaits you
I'll be there to be your light
It's a hard lonely road
When you're standing outside in the cold

That we belong together
Like the moon and stars and midnight
We'll be strong forever
Cuz we belong together

Summer plans

This will be my first summer in 7 years where I do not have school or a mission, so I plan on being this book worm all summer. Enjoying every last bit until I start law school where I read what they tell me. Also plan on laying out, being crafty, hiking!! However, I have fallen behind on the good books that have come out so please make some suggestions, please don't suggest Twilight ( I might vomit) or Harry Potter (that is known) :)
