curiosity

You know that you're a poor college student when...
-you receive a $50 gift card to Target (favorite place, ever!) and instead of buying an adorable new outfit with some earrings and maybe a clearance pair of shoes, you buy the essentials.

Mascara,
deodorant,
new bra,
shampoo and conditioner.


Does anyone else see a problem with this??

silly chinese.

i like Chinese food,
i like fortune cookies,
But what I like more is the fortune.

so I recently broke open a fortune cookie,
excited to see what the Chinese have in store for me.
I laughed when I read it.
(we always add "in bed" after reading them)

here it is:
"You could prosper in the field of entertainment....::in bed::"

appropriate?
probably not.

I had to share though. hehe.
and hey, maybe it's true.

I can hear the bells

...Christmas bells, that is.
Christmas is Friday and I can't even wait! I love Christmas! If you didn't already know that from my obsession with Christmas music and decorations then there's seriously something wrong with you.
GC #6 has been celebrating Christmas for a while now. Our apartment was/is the best decorated apartment in probably all of Logan City. Joseph brought great joy and light into our humble abode and then he shortly died from "faintness". He got to the point where he couldn't stand up on his own or with the help of handy dandy tape. This is when we knew we needed to let him go and put him out of his misery.
In honor of Joseph, the greatest Christmas tree we've ever had, we cremated him and hung some of this remains (the lights) around the room and a branch in Santa's pants. He will always be remembered has the most handsome tree to live in GC #6.

in honor of Joseph

missing

So... I miss this:



I miss..
the people,
the sectionals,
the songs,
the heart melting harmonies,
the support,
the comfort,
the theory,
the inside jokes,
when Ms. M would swear,
when Twitchell missed his solo. twice.
the insane amount of Christmas concerts,
the laughter,
the car rides to performances,
the mis-haps of performances,
when people showed up late, very late to a concert,
the sharing of tick-tacks, gum, and cheese-its,
the art of jumping off the chairs during AP week...


I miss Britny dancing alone.
I miss the unity we all had, almost like a quilt.
I miss dancing in those dresses.
I miss, at times, the annoyance of others.
I miss New York.
I miss being good at singing.
I miss singing for others.
I miss the womans dressing room.
(i'm not gay, I promise)
I miss chewing gum in choir and getting away with it.


I do NOT miss:
the beat boxing from the boys,
the tapping of my chair from behind,
or the high-fives.

holiday cheermister.

So maybe it's all this Christmas spirit, the fresh fallen snow, or Christmas decorations that have inspired me to write this post.. Or maybe it's simply that today I've realized a couple different things about this Christmas season that I haven't felt before.

Hospitality:
Christmas time seems to be full of it! Hence why it's one of my favorite times of the year. I'm just going to boast and brag for a second, so prepare yourself. But quite frankly, I have the BEST bishopric in Logan, UT. And anyone that knows Bishop Reed, Brother Hamilton, and Brother Vaughn can back me up 100%. I have never felt so much love and kindness than I have from these 3 men. They are incredible men of God. They go out of their way to make sure they shake your hand or compliment as many people as they can, give you a smile, or a weird semi-embarrassing smirk during sacrament meeting. These men are amazing!

Brother Vaughn invited my apartment over to his house for dinner tonight and let me tell you, it was BEYOND what I expected. (and I had some pretty high expectations) His house is beautiful and inviting. His wife, his wife is one of the most personal people I've ever met, and his kids are adorable. You can really feel the love they have for each other. They were gracious hosts and I'd go back any day!

But something sparked my interest while I was sitting at the Vaughn's and talking to them about numerous subjects. Brother and Sister Vaughn's love for each other. And believe me, they are SO in love. You can tell by the way they joke around and the way he looks at her. I'm not sure why it was so sentimental to me, but it was. It got me excited for when I find my eternal companion and having that comfort of someone that will always love me; and for who I am. I'm not perfect whatsoever. (although I deceive people at tell them I am; they believe me) But their love made me almost... ugh, I thought I'd never say this...But it made me miss that person I will spend eternity with, even though I don't even know who he is. Maybe he's not even in Utah right now. Maybe he's at USU. Maybe he's someone I've known for a long time.. but nonetheless, I miss him.

Whoever he is, wherever he may be.. I'm excited to met you. And someday share that love I saw tonight.

Library

Being in the library for the past almost 4 hours really gets me thinking about a few things...

Talking... One of my biggest peeves about the Library. I come to the library to get away from the talking so I can concentrate. At times I want to turn around to those who obviously have never learned or heard about how to whisper, and tell them to go read what the sign states as they walk into the area people are so frantically flipping through pages trying to cram before a very important final. It boldy states,

NO TALKING, QUIET STUDY AREA!

really? really.. the nerve of some people. I bet they wouldn't like it to much if I pulled out my cell phone and called one of my good friends only to carry on a 20+ minute conversation catching up on all the latest and greatest gossip that has happened since we've last talked. Like about the cute new man you said hi to on your way home from campus, or the weird PDA you see at basketball games (which is a whole different story, but some people gross me out. Don't be awkwardly holding each other while you are supposed to be cheering. Especially when you are fortunate enough to be on the very front row at a basketball game. People don't want to see that. Cheer gosh dang it! You know, the kind of cheering where you lose your voice and your legs burn from all that jumping up and down. The cheering where you try your darnedest to hold in those words your mother would go get the soap for. Not holding each other. Do that on your own time. And not in the Spectrum, Please. That is Holy ground.) Seriously people...

My other pet peeve about the Library...when people don't follow the diagonal rule for tables. I don't want to sit across from you, so why did you insist on sitting directly in front of me. I mean, I know I'm good-looking and all.. but we all know this causes for awkward stares and a glimpse at yours and my homework and studying materials. So let's just eliminate a potentially awkward study time and sit diagonally from each other please. Thank you.

I apologize for my uneasiness about these previously discussed subjects. I feel it has gone on long enough. Maybe I'm uptight because I'm cold from sitting by the window. It could be because I'm hungry and don't have the motivation to study anymore. Or maybe it's because of those few (and quickly multiplying) people that seem to have no common courtesy.

I like to believe it's the last one.

Familiar

this feeling I'm under. The stress. The cold. Anxiety. Excitement. Annoyance. It seems all too familiar. You want to know why? Cause I feel like it was finals for spring semester. And here I am again.. doing the same retinue.

-7:03 alarm goes off
-moan on the thought of getting out of bed
-turn off alarm
-lay in bed thinking "10 more minutes"...please..
-think about what I need to do that day
-think about how cold it'll be walking up the hill
-still thinking about those 10 more minutes I so desperately want

And then I think of FINALS! Stress comes very easily to be when I think of Finals. and how I should have been studying forever ago. But let's be honest, that doesn't happen. You've got other things to do! Like eat food, other assignments in classes, catch up on the latest boy gossip in the apartment, watch prison break(don't watch it until you know you have time to finish all the disks..seriously though.)

But then I think, the only way I get through that thought of unbearable stress is being able to come home to an apartment of incredible girls who are my best friends. We all know what everyone is going through, and always know just what to say. Even if it's a simple "Hey! How was your day!?" from Flin or a good boy story from Nicole. Even when Amber and I yell at each other, it makes my day.(gets my stress out too) And when you can hear Candace entering the door before she even gets to the top of the stairs. When Sade plays her music. I love them.

I'm so immensely grateful for the friendships we've made since living together. I can't see my life without any of these girls and it's going to be sad when two of them leave next week. So I guess I'll just take a moment and share my thoughts about them..

Candace:

wow. I knew she was put into my life for a reason when some of my best friends from high school found out that she was my roommate. She had met them doing Close Up in DC. Once Chitty and Brian found out that we'd be living together, that's all they'd talk about. They told me she was the most caring, friendly, down to earth person they've met and, they were right. Candace has changed my life and it'll be incredibly sad she won't be around to break any and all silences that are in our apartment. (the few times there are silences, she will undoubtedly be the one to break them) I've loved her from the moment I heard about her. This year has been bomb between us. I love her laugh, I love her yelling. I love it when she's completely out of control when she doesn't want to go to class and I also love that she ditches class now! I love that she puts up with my slight Michael Buble obsession and will listen to him and sing along. She's one of my best friends. We both share a great love for music and recently "Breathe" from Taylor Swift became one of our songs. She's an amazing musician and I admire her for her talents. She's brilliant and self-less. Her smile is contagious and I love her hugs. As you can see I could go on and on about her. Those of you who know Rascal know what I'm talking about. You couldn't get a better roommate than her. I love you Rascal! Come home soon.. :)

and

Sade:

I love this girl. She's so sweet and funny and so patient. Weird thing is, she won't be back. She's graduating. Done and Gone. Plus Brandon stole her from us (we're still bitter about this one) Although I feel like I haven't had a lot of interaction with Sade this semester between her being gone with Brandon or sitting in her room studying and talking to Brandon, haha, I'm still completely grateful she's roommates with us. I had the best time last year sharing a room with this amazing woman and it's weird to not have her around as much. I miss it. I know she'll be very happy in life with the things that are ahead of her and I wish her the best of luck. She's beautiful and smart. I mean, seriously.. She's graduating college at age 19. Insane. But she's wonderful! Logan won't be the same without you.


I'm going to miss these girls so much and the more I think about it the more sad I get. Which can't happen right now! Bleh! I have FINALS to worry about!




FINALS- Frick I Never Actually Learned this Stuff...

so true..

Monday, November 23, 2009

some serious confessions..

I figured it's about time I confess some things to you all. Some of these might come as a total shock to some of you, and to others it will come as a complete annoyance. But quite frankly, I just don't care. Just hear me out.. a'ight? Ok. Here it goes
Confession #1.
I have a crush on Michael Buble. The way he sings me sweet sweet nothings when I fall asleep, the way he can always make my day. Including when I had the day from Satan's house (yes people. Sa-Tan) and how I may or may not have shed a tear or two when I found out that he is coming to grace me with his incredibly good-looking presence in SLC on March 31... Oh what I magical day that was! Huss actually talked to him the other day. I'll post what he said to her...

Marissa Floodman to Kjarinda Lambert:

So I was talking to Micheal the other day and of course I asked about you and how things are going and he just got this sparkle in his eye and went off about how he can hear your heartbeat for a thousand miles and that the heavens open up everytime you smile. That when he comes to you, its just where he belongs, and yet he is running to you like a river sung. Then he went off about how you give him this crazy love, lots of love. That you have a fine sense of humor when he is feeling low down, and when he comes to you, when the sun goes down, you take away his trouble and griefs. Then he just started talking about that crazy love stuff again. You are so lucky, he really likes you, and gets all metaphorical when he talks about you. kind of creeps me out, but it was pretty. He just really wants to curl his arms around you and kiss you hard. so cute. im so jealous.


Michael is such a sweet guy and I probably don't deserve him, But I'm not going to pass up this offer! :) I love you too Michael!

Confession #2:
I owe everything in my life to this one thing. Shoe Traction. Without this blissful sturdiness my life would be an embarrassment and very nonfunctional. So thank you shoes. Thank. you.

Confession #3:
I look forward for when I get to tuck Skrat, amber, into bed. She's just so peaceful and considerate and likes to inform me that she loves me when I'm walking out the door. But of course it catches me off guard and I just say.. uh.. I'll see ya. But I think she knows I secretly love her too.

Confession #4:
The Grinch is my hero. His change of heart makes me want to be a better person.

Confession #5:
One of the biggest reasons I'm still at USU is for Aggie Basketball. And my roommates.

cause she was jealous from the start

Throughout my life I've come to two conclusiosn....

Getting ready is very rarely rewarding.
and
I know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends.



Seriously though, Meiko has been inspired to write such a song full of truthfulness that each girl can relate to.






p.s. Mormon Bachelor pad = greatest thing ever.. please all you females go and check it out.

sneak peak..

I've had a great couple weeks.

Here's a sneak peak that will have to suffice until you get to hear all the juicy enjoyable details..


Wednesday, September 30, 2009

and so it begins.

I've dreaded this day.
I've tried to prepare myself.
late night pep talks,
quotes of encouragement,
memories from last year.
And it all came down to one moment,
and all my hard work was gone..

I have two words for you my friends,
two words..

Logan weather.

Yes, you might be laughing. But mind you, this is no laughing matter. I knew a day like today was going to come soon. I saw the signs. The leafs changing beautiful warm colors of fall all around campus, the slightly brisk canyon breeze in the morning walking up the hill, and most importantly... the weather man told me so.

Yesterday it was an incredibly divine 85 degrees. Which might even been a little too hot for my liking at this time of the year. But alas, it was wonderful. No jacket. Just a nice short sleeve shirt that will now be seeing the back of my closet until next June. And what do I wake up to find today? Rain. Snow. And all of the in between.

Don't get me wrong, I love the rain and the nice cool mist it brings. But on rainy days, I like to sit in the comfort of my apartment, with my best friends, sipping some apple cider while watching Friday Night Lights in some old but still incredibly satisfying sweats. That's what I like to do on rainy days. Not high-tail it up to campus, trying hard fit myself and my backpack under a well used umbrella while also trying to breath air that won't freeze in my lungs.

It's just days like these that make me scared for another winter in Logan, UT. But alas, I chose it. I always knew I'd have death by hypothermia.

Long awaited post

I've been slacking, I'm aware. This summer has been insane to say the least! I've had the best of times though between EFY, country dancing, and hanging in Logan with the new peeps. I love it! I've loved getting to know new people and build more friendships with them. The people I have met from EFY this summer are incredible and have completely changed my life. They make me want to be a better person. For real yo! All my sessions of EFY have been phenomenal and I wish it weren't over! The youth are amazing and continue to amaze me! I Love it! I love them!

Here's a list of things that I need to discuss in future posts.. So remind me. haha.
1. EFY Ogden 6
2. R.I.P. GMC Jimmy, Hello Frank the ford focus!
3. My grills.
4. work
5. friends
6. dates

yesum. I'll post more tomorrow, I'm quite tired right now. peace, love, and jada. That's all you need.

UPON THE ROCK


Aren't they such a good looking group?!


I might be bias, but these counselors are the bomb!
We had a big group, 3 girl counselors and 2 boys. It was awesome!

So, as most of you know I had the amazing opportunity to be a counselor at EFY this past week and honestly, amazing doesn't do it justice! I LOVED it! These youth were and are incredible and I didn't expect to learn so much from them. The other counselors there have become some of my best friends and I'm very fortunate that the majority of them live in Logan and the surrounding cities.
I had always loved EFY as a participant. In fact, I went all four years! But I have to say it's a thousand times better being a counselor. It's like graduating from high school and starting college. ha. get analogy, I know. I loved being able to be COMPLETELY crazy and having the kids follow along. Luckily, my girls loved me! I'm not saying that in a prideful way at all, but they were incredible. Every girl in my group clicked from the very begging. Maybe it was the laffy taffy I passed out to lighten the mood while going over EFY rules and standards, but whatever it was, it worked :)
I'll have to tell you all more about EFY in a later time this week. I've got to run and go do some things right now. But stay tuned for more exciting stories and a sneek peak at just how AWESOME being a counselor is! If you ever have the chance to do it, DO IT! I promise you won't want the week to end and you'll find yourself seriously considering adding more sessions.

I love you upon the rock!

tribute



I miss this boy already
He's my best friend.

Monday, July 6, 2009

I'm excited to go back to LOGAN because...

I miss my roommates more than ever. Really. They're all incredible people and I probably don't even deserve them to be honest. They have changed my life and I thank them for that. Hopefully one day I can truly show them how much they mean to me. We all go through hard times and sometimes push those who are most important to us away because we don't want to be considered "weak" in their eyes and I'm afraid I sorta did that spring semester to some of these girls. I love them so much. They mean the world to me and I can't believe how lucky I got to have them in my life. God truly places people where others need them, and I know that he did that for me. Without these girls I don't know where I'd be. We've gone through a lot and I still love them more than ever! fall semester..please come faster so I can squeeze these gorgeous girls again.



We had the most amusing time taking our Christmas pictures last year. Or at least I did. Flin on the other hand was getting pretty tussled because we couldn't focus to just take a picture. I think that night we all had the Weller curse with picture taking. Oh, and look at Candace! I can almost hear her rascal cackle through the face she is making. haha. I love it.

Oh how I love this girl! She is so hysterical with the things she says and does. Her Eggo's, her berry juice, watching seasons of friends at a time. She always kept us intrigued with her Caitlin logic. 70, I love you.

Mama flin. She probably finds it a tiny bit annoying we all say she's the mom of us all. But she kind of is. Emily Flinders is the most perfect person I've ever met. And I'm being serious. She's incredibly intelligent and I'm quite jealous of her mad dance skills. Honestly, she always made me want to be a better person. Better at visiting teaching, better cook, better organization, a better friend.
Best. roomie. ever. Sade is the cutest thing. We had some weird times, but I would never give them up. She understood my immensely lame humor and laughed when no one else did. She's the greatest! I'm going to miss having our late night chats, waking up to her laughing in her sleep, her adorable indie style, and our venting sessions for just about everything. She's my best friend.

Huss. hahaha. Oh man, she's so wonderful. I love her hatred towards certain people, the way she can always make anyone laugh, no matter how bad of a mood you're in. Her usher impersonations are one in a million. I'll have to post some of those videos.
This girl right here became one of my very good friends. She's so funny and doesn't let people walk over here. I truly admire that about her. I love her dearly.
what to even say about Sian. I look up to her in every way. Honestly. She's hysterical and I only wish to be as awesome as she is with her Beyonce singing. Don't they look like the same person? I will admit, I have mistaken Sian for Beyonce quite a few number of times when I hear If I were a boy. I looooooooooove her.
Hay hay is gorgeous. I've always been jealous of her. She's funny with her swearing habit, and her funny stories about what happens when she goes running.. (some of you might know what I'm talking about) haha.
Nicole Leona Lewis. Wow. This girl is my love. Seriously. Besides of my envious feelings towards her perfect skin tone, her long, healthy, thick, beautiful hair, and her scrap booking talents, I love her. A lot. We've had some awesome nights just the two of us learning dances, making Christmas cookies, and just talking for hours on end. She's amazing. Really. I only wish I could be half the person she is. I owe a lot to her.
and rascal. Save the best for last. She completes my life! Who knew. Brian Simmons once told me that me and Candace would get along. He was dead on. I love this girl probably more than I love Federer or Michael Buble. She makes me laugh so so hard and I love her little laugh. It's addicting. She's a freaking genius too and right now resides in Spain where I hope she will fulfill my wish and go hook up with some fine piece of Spaniard. she's bueno.

change.

change is the only word I can use to sum up my summer so far. With boys leaving, making big decisions that could potentially make or break my future, and trying to better myself; I've found that I like change.
*side note* I've always dreaded change. Even mentioning the word made my stomach ache, my head spin, and even makes me realize wearing make-up is completely useless when you see it running down your puffy red face.
Although this summer has been different. I've embraced change without even trying. I hadn't realized it until today, this very moment. (hence why I'm blogging) With change, I feel like I have a new slate, just erased whiteboard, newly painted walls waiting for someone to dress it with well loved memories and up-to-date fashions. I find it thrilling.

so everyone, meet my new best friend:
Change

my best friends wedding.

WELL! There she goes, she's gone. :) Larissa got married last Friday and I've never attended something more perfect in my life. Seriously though, the weather was perfect, the food was perfect, the temple was perfect, and the company was even better!! While we were waiting for Jamo and Riss to come out of the Logan temple as husband and wife, my heart was pounding harder than I thought it even could. I was so excited for and Jamo! They are adorable!! Congrats my friend:) So besides the fact of locking my keys in my car at the reception and having to drive all the way back to Centerville from Morgan, and then back up to Morgan to retreive my car, It was a perfect day!! :)

Jody Nicole, myself, and Sade waiting outside the temple for the newly married couple of joy.

aren't they just so adorable!

us :)


We were really excited. haha.



Awwwww... :) my heart..

and I still shed a tear every once and a while..


Taylor and I have been really really good friends since about the 8th grade. I look up to him so much and he continues to bless me life. We were officers together in 9th grade and I'm surprised he survived once Noelle and i got a hold of him. Noelle would stick skittles up her nose and shoot them at taylor, without him knowing he just thought we threw them at him, so he ate it. And he almost died while drinking his drink at Robintions when noelle and I attacked him with the blowfish face. He's wonderful. and I'm glad we didn't kill him :)

Meet the beer belly chadd. I remember talking to Philip early fall semester and him saying chadd had developed a so called "beer belly" since they have started school. I didn't believe him and low and behold.. Chadd sure had put on some weight, but seemed to have embraced it by this picture. he said it was easier to keep his drink on his stomach now that he had a little extra to live with. Bless him.. Bless. him.


I miss nathan princess kasparian. He's wonderful.


Kmetzsch is just so cute, and such a trooper to go to angels and demons with three girls and him. He loved it though.


Wow! I miss philip a lot. He became one of my best friends. We had a strong bond through our crushes on Michael Buble. haha.


I will always love stephen, even when he lied to Katie Cutler and i about a girl named "Fi Fi" that he was in love with. He claimed that fi fi meant swift river. Little did he know, katie and I got him back by making up a man named "Fo Fo" meaning big rock. Oh you gotta love jr. high memories.


HAHA! i LOVE brian steven simmons. He's honestly the greatest person there is. If you know him, I'm sure you can't help but agree. He is such a strong spirited guy and knows how to make anyone crack a smile! Between his "I'll decide" and "that's plenty of time to make a baby!", brian quotes often find a way out of my mouth to this day without even realizing.


Adam and Douglas. They're cute together, don't you think? Doug was trying the new "butt crack" look while adam was attempting to be Link off of hairspray.


Oh landon is so great! There are times I defiantly didn't give him enough credit. But I truly admire him for the way he lives his life. He's incredible.


I just love Kendall. That's really all there is to it. I love everything about him. haha.



And dearest dereck. Poor guy. Stacie and I nearly embarrassed him to death when we sang "7 things" by miley to him in front of all the people at the YSA campout. It was a grand ol' time. Huh stac? haha.

I'm so proud of all these boys and miss them dearly. They're wonderful and always full of surprises. I challenge everyone to write on of these boys they haven't heard from in a while, I know they appreciate it a lot. It gives them extra motivation and encouragement. Even a little "hello" makes their day!:)

heavenly messages

I love days when you drive slow for no reason but to thoroughly embrace your surroundings.
When someone cuts you off while driving but instead of getting upset, honking your horn, and using colorful words you simply smile and say "they must be in a hurry"
When you drive past the temple and see what seems to be thousands of family and friends gathering in support and happiness about the beginning of an eternal family. Where best friends are sealed together for time and all eternity
I love days when you have random bursts of energy and take it out by dancing around your kitchen
when you don't get ready all day long and don't care how gross you look
when nothing seems to get on your nerves. Not even when your father eats your ice cream that boldly states that it is yours and only yours on the lid
when you really notice how god blesses you in simple little ways
when you really realize how remarkable life really is
I love days like today
whoever knew that temples had mailboxes?!? I sure didn't
I guess you do learn new things everyday..

roger federer

Summer is my favorite time of the year for many reasons. Most particularly; TENNIS. Being able to play outside with friends while the warm rays of sun beat upon your face. Also being able to lay on my couch all day long watching the oh so loved tennis channel while the professionals battle out on the different court surfaces in hopes to becoming number one in the world.
Roger Federer has always been my favorite and always will. I love him. Ugh, so so much! unfortunate for me, he recently got married this past April to his long time girl friend of 9 years. Federer is also expecting to be a father soon. He is going to the cutest little dad there is.
RF,
I love you.
