et cetera

WELL I looked out my window and what did I see?
SECOND WINTER STARING STRAIGHT AT ME.

Come on, March? What are you thinking, I mean really. You must be playing a trick on us. Or perhaps you've decided to switch places with February? I probably would too, if I were you. Year after year of the same thing, I'd want to go a little crazy with the weather. But I can't honestly say I'm pleased, March. I was going to ride my bike this morning.
So I stayed in my warm covers a little bit longer and tried to remember my dreams. They were strange. As always. I played the harp a little bit, and got ready for the day.
And then I spent my morning here. Have you heard of wish? I might be addicted. A little bit. My favorite was this shirt. I just might have to indulge. (Doctor Who? Yes.)

OH AND I'VE JUST REMEMBERED that I poured myself a bowl of frootie tooties and I forgot about them and they'll be all soggy, now.

WITH THAT, happy Friday. :)

Tis only a scratch.

So basically crazy things happen to me all the time.

I totally biffed it on the scooter on Monday. (Monday. Had to be it.) It was super awesome, and I wish someone could have recorded it. It got caught in a groove in the sidewalk, and I definitely did like a somersault-flip-type-thing that was beautiful and elegant, and landed on my butt with a loud "FRICK" to accompany it.

Classy, I know.

So of course there were a million people there to see me, so I'm basically famous at this school now. Everyone knows my name. It's true.Three guys walked passed and were like, "Hey, are you okay?" I'm fine, really, I'm fine. No autographs, please. And then, AND THEN. I was still in the process of making sure I had no broken bones and picking up my gracefully thrown body parts scattered across the sidewalk, and several agonizing seconds later, someone who had obviously seen from a long ways away, said, "Hey, are you okay? I'm an MT, are you sure?" You're a mountain? What? I'm fine. I'm just fine.

The moral? It's not easy to be famous.

growing pains

So I'm working on growing my hair out, right? I've come pretty far:

Right? Yes? Also I'm blonde. ANYWAY. The point is, I'm at such an awkward length right now! I don't even know what to do with my medium-ish length hair. I tried curling it just now, and that was okay,

but it took about a million and a half years to do, and I just don't have the patience. (also I burned myself and it looks like a hickey. promise it's not) So I think I'm going to rock a ponytail for awhile. Yes. Ponytail. 

(also because I'm lazy. shhh...)

So I'm thinking I need to do a feature about my apron collection soon. Did you know I love aprons? Well I do. I collect them when I go on trips, and people give them to me just because they know how much I love them. They make me feel empowered! But more on that later.

happy five-twenty-two!

The Elbow.

So one day, Spencer and I decided that we needed to make a video.

Then, like forevermillion days later, this was born.
Please enjoy. :)

So, um, hey.

Did you miss me?

Prolly not too dreadfully, right?

I think I was getting bored with myself. Or lazy. Probably both.

But I've decided to come back full swing, just on a whim. I miss being whimsical.

Things to note:
     I still do not have an iPhone (hence, no instagram)
     No, Spencer and I are not getting married anytime soon.
     I finally bought a new journal (currently on pg. 36)
     Granny panties are fine.
     I am re-reading Harry Potter and I lurve it
     Facebook is awful (twitter is worse)
     My room is boring and I want to re-decorate
     School starts in 21 days
     Heroes is addicting
     I FINALLY HAVE A JOB.

There, there is my spiel. So hello, and everything. 

Also, here is us with mustaches. Please enjoy.

The end, amen.

7 Questions!

So I'm doing seven questions with Gentri today!

Here is my BEAUTIFUL picture:

Me and the fabulous Eden on an adventure to the library

1. What is your favorite color TO WEAR?
Definitely BLUE. It's my favorite color and I basically wear it every day.

2. You are given the choice between visiting every country and landing on the moon. Which would you choose?
I would LOVE to visit every country. I would be way too chicken to go into space. I mean . . . it's space.


3. What's your favorite animal and why?
I love bald eagles. I've never met one, but I think birds in general are beautiful (also I envy them) and bald eagles are particularly amazing. Also they fall in love with each other and stay together forever! They're Mormons! :D


4. You are forced to do one of the following, which would you choose? Sky dive, scuba dive, or this:

Oh my heck. I think I would be too scared to do this.
But it's definitely the coolest. So I choose . . . THIS.

5. You are given the chance to go back in time. Which era do you choose?
Fifties. HANDS DOWN. Style, music, people, everything. Just fabulous.


6. If you had the power to remove one thing (ie: flies, mosquitos, junk food) from the earth for good - what would it be?
Probably . . . murder. Yep.


7. What is one thing you learned from Pinterest that made you think "GENIUS!"
 Oh mah heck. This. It's just brilliant. (Cookie bowls for ice cream)

The end. :)

And so.

Here are some things that happened to me today.

I realized that my kindergartener often answers questions with blah-blah-something-blah . . . if you have enough money.
People. She's in kindergarten. It kills me that she is worrying about finances. Seriously.

I wrote up an extraordinarily long and detailed note to my substitute for tomorrow (and felt anxiety about it . . . I shouldn't be worried, but I've grown attached to these kids, and thinking of leaving them in someone else's hands? Hm).

I made my bed.

My hand swelled up randomly while I was practicing the harp. Auditions tomorrow . . . nbd.

I cried on the way home from work while listening to The Book Thief (READ IT).

I cried while I watched two hours of Little House on the Prairie (Adam got his sight back! And he thinks Mary is beautiful! And he got into Law School! YEAH!)

I DID NOT eat any sweets. Heck yeah.
(I really wanted to. I'm saving the other Snickers that Spencer got for me for tomorrow, after my audition.) :D

The end.
