{Congratulations}

Congratulations to the Happy Couple!!!




From Kate's wedding dress, to the angelic choir; from the British hats, to the jaw-dropping Westminster Abbey...it was all incredible! Watching the wedding was worth every second of sleep i lost last night.

And after reading and watching hours and hours of coverage on the wedding and the details leading up to the event, i know one things for sure:

I left my heart in London

This blows my mind:




Insane right? How on earth is it possible that this movie looks better than part one?!

77 more days!!!

I don't think i can make it that long.

pray for me.

a flaw

Well its official: My idol, my obsession, my hero, my wantobejustlikeher, has a flaw.

Carrie Underwood cannot act worth beans. I saw “Soul Surfer” over the weekend—great movie, but Carrie’s (I like to pretend we are on a first name basis) acting skills were, well, pretty awful. So awful that it was comical; and for some strange reason, her horrid acting only made me love her more. It’s nice to know she has a flaw…

And if you haven’t seen this video yet, you HAVE to check it out. The whole thing is incredible, but 3:45 to the end is pure perfection. If you want to know what it feels like to have goosebumps the size of mountains, proceed...





Wow. The girl can sing.

the best medicine

Some say that laughter is the best medicine. I couldn’t agree more; but add a little sunshine to the prescription and you’ve got a full on cure for whatever it is you’ve got!

This weekend was just what I needed to recover from a loooong semester.

Now I’m back in Provo feeling a little…

Sad…because my best friend Jane was not at the apt to greet me and she won’t be for a good 18 months

Tired…thinking about starting school again tomorrow

Homesick…i always have a hard time saying bye to my fam

Angry…because I hate change and it seems like that is all you get in college; change, change, and change again

Nostalgic…this time last year I was on my way to London, I can’t believe it’s been a year

And Cold…have I mentioned how much I don’t like winter? Especially when it’s practically May!


Good thing I’ve got chocolate like this:

And pictures like this:

to make me smile!

Hurrah!

I’m Done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I may or may not have...


Skipped a little bit on the way home

And laughed out loud

And smiled at every stranger I saw

And said hello to everyone I saw

And whistled

And screamed

And sighed

And laughed again

And smiled so big that my cheeks are now sore


Yeah, finishing finals is probably the best feeling ever.


Now that finals are over, I can finally live up to my true potential…

...at least until next week when a new semester starts. HA!

finalsssss

You know its finals week when…

-The amount of sleep you get per night is comparable to a quick power nap (and even that’s pushing it)

-No one on campus says hello to anyone because their noses are buried in a text book or notebook 24/7

-You’ve been wearing the same sweatshirt for days and you don’t even care that it has remnants of your most current meal spilled all over the front

-The bags under your eyes are large enough to carry groceries

-A horrible test grade seems more humorous than horrific

-You close your eyes and all you see are the little black bubbles you just spent hours filling in

-Heavy laughter and unexplained crying occur within minutes of each other

-The library has become your first home.


Good thing I’ve got great roommates to keep my sane…

Or insane…


One more day of madness! i think i can, i think i can, i think i can...

Ha Ha Ha

Funnies from the day...

-Was told to take an umbrella to school today due to the “90%” chance of rain. Good one Jodie…not a cloud in the sky.

-Saw this news feed :
“My boyfriend took me on a date and when he opened the door for me I exclaimed ‘wow I thought chivalry was dead’…he replied ‘who is Chivalry?’ FML”

-Studied with my roommate to the music from “Rocky”…purely for inspirational reasons of course

-Received this email from an "anonymous friend":
Dear Family and Friends,
Most of you know i went in for a surgical procedure for a Butt Lift at the Wal-Mart Medical Center. I didn't have the most pleasant experience. I should've left well enough alone.

(hahaha)

AND

-Forgot to go to work. Oh wait, that wasn't funny. woooooops.

At theScene of the Crime

Met: a complete stranger

Caught: studying with my jacket on my legs like sooo...

Accused: of wearing footie pajamas*

No sir, I did not wear footie pajamas to campus today, okay?

It was cold! gosh.


*Though a pair of footie pajamas would have been nice while studying in the arctic (aka BYU's campus)

{A looooong night}

Well I successfully pulled off an all-nighter last night and finally finished my dang paper.

I don’t know if being awake since 7am yesterday is necessarily something to be proud of though.

One more paper to go and THEN I can start thinking about finals.

YES! I love finals week!

Sarcasm anybody?


Also, let the countdown begin…

93 more days until Harry Potter!!!!!


And while we're in the spirit of HP...I saw this video here a few days ago:





Nothing like a little Ellen to put you in a good mood!
