Its cookie day!

I dunno what it is, but I have had 4 people come bring me cookies/treats this weekend! Haha, yep, 4!!!! First was from my visiting teachers. They left me some chocolates on my doorstep and very nice note...and the chocolates were gone by the next morning. haha. Then, today our home teachers brought us chocolate chip cookies. They were delicious. Theeeennnnn two girls from my relief society brought us some brownies and sugar cookies!! Annnndddddd to top it off, someone just rang our doorbell and ran, and when I opened the door, there was a plate of snickerdoodles with a note for me that just said "You are awesome, have a good break!" Wow. I feel so loved!! I think Heavenly Father knew I would need encouragement to finish this stupid paper.

I guess that means I should probably get out and serve someone tomorrow. :)

Mamma Mia....here we go again...

Tonight was an awesome night. It was a night where I should have been doing homework. I should have been slaving away in the library or in the Humanities computer lab. I probably should have done some laundry. I should have been responsible and straightened up my room a bit....buttttt I didn't do any of those things. I needed a break from the monotony of school work. So instead I enjoyed an evening of a little shopping, cafe rio, and Mamma Mia with some of my dearest friends in the world.

To my lovely ladies: thanks for a night of betty the bra, 5 for $10 underwear, crazy in-laws, MAMMA MIA, sexy home teachers, zebra print clothing items, and torture devices (you know the one Im referring to....). You girls are absolutely fantastic.

Ok, ok, FINE, Obama, you can be my momma.



Haha I thought this was funny. Thank goodness the elections are over because I was getting really tired of hearing this chant. Don't hate on me for saying this, but I have a hard time getting in to politics. I just feel like a lot of the people in politics are not honest, and will say anything and act however they have to in order to convince the American people to vote for them. I have never really figured out how to really figure out what you can trust and what is not true at all. Maybe someday I will get more in to it and figure that out. I'll let you know.

On another note, my week has been fantastic. I got a 92 on my Media Management test, and a 97 on my Grammar of English test. Talk about a good week in the testing center! Woohoo! Now if I could only perform that well in my raquetball class. Raquetball is not my sport. I think I am getting a lot better, but so is everyone else in my class.

AND....the Mavs creamed the Spurs tonight. Awesome.


Welp, I'm tired. Goodnight, blog.

Pac Man!!!!!!!


I was walking on campus today, and I saw these two characters walking around like Pacman...pacman sound effects and all. I am pretty sure they made my day. Every once and awhile, the Pacman and the little goblin guy would run in to each other and Pacman would chop down on him with his large mouth.

Thanks Pacman, for making my day.

The Loves of My Teenage Life.

Yes, as a teeny-bopper, I loved boy bands. But one in particular will always hold a special place in my heart. This band got me through 4 long years of awkwardness. Times of straggly hair, high-water pants, long gangily arms, and bad make-up jobs. When every other boy seemed to shutter at the sight of me, This band stayed by my side, or..... more like stayed taped to my bedroom wall. So Zac, Taylor, and Ike Hanson: this one's to you. This is to nights of my sister and I idolizing them, watching movies of them, jammin' to Mmmbop, voting for them on TRL and pretending to be them.
Thanks Hanson. I made it through my awkward stage.

I think.


Random Facts:
Ever wonder exactly what "Mmmbop" means? It is a frame of time, or an instant.
Ike Hanson Loves Crunchy Peanut butter. But Tay loves creamy. (Who would have thought??)
In Tulsa Oklahoma, May 6th is "HANSON DAY." Ya....celebrate it.
Zac Hanson is a lefty!
All three Hanson brothers are married! Tay has three kids, and Ike has one.

Hanson, I will always love you.

Ode to Jelly Beans.


Jelly Beans. AKA. The story of my life. What wonderful things they are. They come in all colors and flavors, and when put in your mouth, you never know exactly what flavor you are going to get. Some sweet, some unique, some surprising, some downright gross, some pleasant, and some that don't really have much flavor. Some taste good when mixed together, and some ruin the taste in your mouth for the whole day. After sitting in a jar for a year in a half, some start to get stale. Each jelly bean eaten becomes a chore to swallow. But you eat them anyways, because every jelly bean eaten is one less Jelly Bean in the Jar. Then just when you think you've eaten all the good ones, you eat one that takes you by surprise. Then you realize, that even the gross Jelly Beans have thier place in your mouth. And when mixed with the right things, all jelly beans can be good, even if they feel a little bit stale. Sometimes it feels like they'll never be gone. Sometimes the jar just feels too full. Sometimes it feels like you don't know where the jelly beans have gone. Heck, sometimes you forget to even eat the frickin' Jelly bean. Sometimes I'm so sick of jelly beans I wanna throw them all away and pretend I've never eaten Jelly Beans in my life. But, here I sit. Eating Jelly Beans.



I only have 165 Jelly beans left. I guess I better get going on all the things I wanted to do before the jelly beans were gone.



OH how I love my Jelly Bean Jar.



OHHHh


Hey! Little mama, Ooh, you're a stunner

You are one of a kind and...
