MIA

Yeah, so I haven't posted on this thing in a while, so I just thought I would refer you to Adam and Andrea's blog, because we have all been going to St. George a lot for the weekends. Many fun times have been had, but since I am lazy, you can refer to their cute and frequently updated blog. I am pretty sure that I haven't been to my ward in about a month, but I love going home! Its so relaxing to pretend like all of my responsibilities in Provo don't exist. Which is so like me because I am totally one of those escape reality as frequently as possible people whether it is by leaving town, reading young-adult fiction, or watching So You Think You Can Dance clips on YouTube.

Weekend Fun!

I had such an excellent weekend! And it even kind of started on Thursday night. I love not having class on Friday! First I went to Cheesecake Factory, and Transformers 2 at an IMAX Theater, and on Friday I went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open-house, Saturday I went to Lagoon to visit Lauren at work and party-hardy, and Sunday I went over to Ash and Devon's house for dinner! My life is charmed :)

Its official - I'm a clencher

So about a month ago, I thought that I somehow mysteriously dislocated my jaw. I couldn't open my mouth very wide without lots of pain and like a cramping on the left side of my jaw. I decided to not freak out and decided that if I had to get my jaw wired shut to fix it, I would at least lose a lot of weight :) Anyway, a week later, the other side started hurting, and after continual problems for the past month, I woke up this morning and realized that my jaw was clenched so tight I could it took concentrated effort to open my mouth. So now I am in the market for a mouth guard. Lets just pretend that I am an athlete in my sleep or something, and not think about how ridiculous I am going to look and how nasty that is going to be... I don't have the guts to post a picture, because I would still like to be in denial....

Burn Notice

So I am currently obsessed with the TV show Burn Notice. I love it! Basically, while watching it I get to learn about super cool things like how to get rid of the drug lord living next door, or the black market gun runner who is threatening my life. Very interesting, and all done by a James Bond type who has an amazing smile, and is the Robin Hood of Miami. It is a fun show, and I really really wish I were the girl side-kick because she is good with guns and blowing things up. Another benefit of the show is that it is also quite clean (TV-PG). All of this leads to two conclusions:
1. I must find someone who owns the seasons! I need to borrow them!
2. From the bottom of my heart I mean it when I say that if I am not married by the time I am 30, I am going into special forces :)

A tribute to the other gender

So, as many of you know, I didn't grow up with brothers. Maybe that is why I find guys so fascinating and incredibly amusing. They do the strangest things! For example, at FHE tonight, I turned to talk to some of the girls as the activity was winding down, and the next thing I know, there are two guys wrestling to the death on the floor (all in fun of course). I have no idea how that just happened all of the sudden! Weird. :)
I love them all though, and have probably had more guy-friends than girl-friends. In honor of their strangeness, I will post some pictures that I came across today while reading the news.these guys are all chasing a cheese down an incredibly steep hill as it rolls. there were thirty broken bones in last years competition.

This guy has won the world hot dog eating championships six times in a row. And he has no fat on his body. Figures. And he looks so happy :)

Flashback

Today I had the most random flashback to when I was in Paris. It wasn't even a memory of the city, only the hotel, and our very weird bathroom that was was like its own little room made of one continous piece of plastic.
But that memory led to a thousand others that flooded my mind after I started thinking about my study-abroad trip. I love those memories!! I hope and wish and pray a thousand times over that for the rest of my life I get to have those random memories come back to me, even if they are about the strangeness of European plumbing. I think memories are a gift, and I wouldn't change any of mine for the world.

Bliss

I went boating!!! Twice! I love St. George! I love my sisters! (Jess, I miss you!) And I am very sunburned :) hahahaha
