Happy Thanksgiving!

Nothing screams fun like eating turkey with my parents and the missionaries. In all honesty I'd rather be eating Chinese takeout and watching the OC by myself. But I'm GRATEFUL my parents are kind souls and are willing to feed the missionaries, because I hope someone is feeding this girl. Happy Thanksgiving everyone, and try not to feel too bad for me. I promise I have a LOT to be grateful for.

writers block

I have hit a writers block. I don't know what to write about anymore, hence I haven't blogged. This blog has been a blog of my adventures over the last 10 months, and now I'm in a routine: school and work. No one wants to hear that I double dipped on a project at work (that one is for you Ryan) and no one wants to hear about my failures at school. I frankly am just not fun anymore. My free-spirited self has a normal routine. Should I quit boring life and go on an adventure again? Why can't I settle down? Is something wrong with me? Okay I'm done, but if I'm MIA for a while you'll know it's because I've become boring.

The best time of year...

Goodbye October, you will always be my second favorite month, I love the fall colors, the walks up the canyon, the Halloween festivities. I love everything about you (except midterms, and yes I got a solid F on one yesterday...lowest grade I've ever got in the testing center; oh well there is a first for everything I suppose). But now it's time to celebrate the best time of year, and no I'm not referring to winter. CHRISTMAS and THANKSGIVING, two of the best holidays of the year. I seriously cannot wait. I'm crying tears of joy that it's this time of year again. And there is no better way to start the holiday festivities then with this guy.

Sure do love him.

While everyone else was on Fall Break...

• I went to class.
• I went to work.
• I finished watching Drop Dead Diva.

I feel like I accomplished a lot (joke). Oh and I'm still alive. I'll start blogging again. I just need something interesting to blog about. I'll work on that this week.

Drop Dead Diva

It consumes my life. Well school, work, and drop dead diva all currently consume my life. Really. You should watch it. Thank goodness for netflix.
Happy Wednesday.
Also my first class on Friday got canceled. Holla!

True Cougar

I hiked the Y. For the first time in my life. Does that make me a true cougar?? I think it does. This lovely lady showed me the ropes. She's basically a pro; she hikes it like every weekend.

The top

Let me leave 'you' with these inspirational words:

"I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming, but
There's a voice inside my head saying
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make
Feels lost with no direction,
My faith is shakin'
But I gotta keep tryin'
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it, but
These are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most
I've just gotta keep goin', and
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

Keep on movin'
Keep climbin'
Keep the faith baby
It's all about, it's all about
The climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, woah"

New Car!

Okay it's not really a new car, but it's new to me. I don't know if anyone remembers the car I sported in high school. If not let me refresh your memory.

Green car, blue hood...it's pretty classy right? Granted that was my fault, I just can't help but dance to music (don't dance and drive).

Anyway, I'd have to say this car is a step up: one color, automatic locks, AND a cd player. OH YAAAA.

This a picture I found online of the same car I have (my car is really missing the front hub cap on this side). Still an improvement and I'm thrilled.
