wanna see something funny?

then watch this.

i should be doing homework.

i suppose it's time for another needed update. it's been a while since i actually provided any legitimate information regarding what i've been up to and the like. well, the answer to that is nothing. i feel like college really isn't as difficult as everyone makes it out to be. i hardly feel stressed at all. i mean, i suppose i feel a bit stressed at this moment because i skipped my last family studies class and now it's 12:53 a.m. and it turns out that i have an exam next class that i didn't know i had (don't worry mom, i printed out the study guide and am getting right on that....right after i'm done with this) and now it's biting me in the ass juuuuust a bit. anywho, the past few months have actually been moving along quite swiftly, and it has honestly been a blast. it's super hard to believe the semester is almost over. so here's a bit of an overview of the past few months. i love october. for reals. i love that during october fall is juuuuust starting to happen so it's not unbearably hot, but also not out-of-control freezing like i hate. i hiked timpanogos with my fambam and the youth group:) turns out i'm wayyy more out of shape than i thought. i still continually spend nearly every waking moment at kappa sig. i lovelovelove those boys and feel so incredibly blessed to be able to spend time with all of them<333 for halloween, i was mistaken multiple times as a "beer maiden," but no. i was candy corn. and how i just adore halloween. henry and i went trick-or-treating (he was the only one willing to go with me..) and you know what? we were criticized and ridiculed time and time again. supposedly, we were embarrassing and disgraceful, and there was no way we would have any luck hunting for candy on a sunday. needless to say, they were quite apologetic when i returned nearly an hour later equipped with a massive bag full of chocolatey goods:)) except then they attacked me which was so. not. cool. speaking of chocolate, a couple friends and i visited Hatch Family Chocolates, and if you don't know what that is, then you don't watch enough t.v., and shame on you. it recently started to get really cold, and has been snowing a bit. i think maybe this winter i'll try to enjoy the snow a bit. maybe get out and ski or something. however, it's not likely. i went grocery shopping a couple days ago, and just guess who is already almost out of chips and guacamole? this girl. i'm in search of a job, except not really. i set up my classes for spring semester and i'm very excited to be taking yoooga:) i love having required exercise already planned for me. it's really just so handy. lately, i've been listening to a lot of country music, and have a new favorite song of the day: If I Die Young by The Band Perry. you should be currently, or have just listened to it. and also, i'm not really concerned about stupid things at the moment. i kind of like it that way:) i cleaned my room thoroughly, i think it was sunday night. it's dirty again. it's tuesday. my newest favorite nail polish is Foiled Rotten by N.Y.C. and it's not even mine. i stole it from kenz...sorry.. z and i got a rat:) her name is Lola and she is the cutest little thing. unfortunately, Lola the rat hates me. i visited some of my good friends up at USU in logan over the weekend, and had a total blastyblast:) i purchased about a million bags of on-sale halloween candy, which actually turned out not to be on sale, and am currently munching on a fun-size kit kat:) kenz and i have retrieved nearly the entire building of 814's name tags, but still are working on obtaining the rest from our hall. if you were to look into our room from the parking lot, you would first notice the multi-colored christmas lights framing our 2nd floor window, and then would soon after catch a glimpse of the many different paper name cards placed creatively all over the back of our door. the cutest:) however, it would appear that kenz and i aren't the only pranksters of building 814. coming home one day and finding a rotten and squished pumpkin outside of our front door was most likely my least favorite thing in a long time. it was also really cool when i tried to move it and the pumpkin moldiness fell into itself and squished into our floor. don't worry, the pumpkin was eventually removed. however, each time i reach the top of the stairwell, and fling open the door, the stench of rotting pumpkin still lingers in the goop stained carpet. i mentioned in a previous blog that the shithead above me liked to blast his music a bit too loud. it was, at the time, just a bit disconcerting. here's the cool part. it's worse now. if i didn't know any better, i would very likely assume that living above me are four 500 lb. men who get their kicks out of pacing the floors, tipping over filing cabinets, and cranking their underground, techno rap to the absolute highest decibel. pounding on the ceiling has worked in the past, but they've gotten clever and now only pound back. it is much more often that i find myself reaching for my earplugs and ibuprofen. assholes. last night, kenz, melody, and i watched nick and norah's infinite playlist while sipping on hot cocoa (even though mine wasn't equipped with the baby marshmallows..bummer..) and it was just soooooooo delightful, i tell ya:) i've been visiting home quite a bit more often. sometimes i just super miss the fam and the pupps. it is just the worst. well, it's definitely 1:16 a.m. and i certainly have some studying to get in. so i guess this is it. au revoir.

tagged.

court. i adore you. sorry if these answers are just not good enough.
1. what is your absolute favorite line from a movie? there are so many. and as classy as it is, the majority of my favorite quotes lie within the ever so cleverly crafted script of the The Hangover. that movie could honestly be considered my favorite quote.
2. what is your favorite halloween tradition? once again. there are so so many. halloween is without a doubt in my top 3 favorite holidays. i absolutely love it, so i soak it all up. favorite traditions in no particular order.
a. trying on tons and tons and tons of extravagant halloween costumes until i find the one i can't leave without.
b. trick-or-treating. a no brainer. who doesn't love running around in the chilly october air, begging for goods on neighbors' doorsteps?
c. trading trick-or-treating candy. if i'm not up to my chest in delicious Reese's peanut butter cups there will be hell to pay. (fitting for this devilish holiday, i know.)
d. carving pumpkins. classic.
3. what is your favorite seasonal clothing to wear and why? let me just tell you.
winter: nice looking jackets. why? i honestly couldn't tell you. maybe it's because when you wear something nice looking you feel sort of good about yourself...?
spring: spring is when i break out the flip-flops or begin walking barefoot. pretty much one of the most freeing feelings ever after having your feet bundled up day in and day out due to gross snow that sticks around for wayyyy too long.
summer: shorts. i love shorts. why? because i hate jeans. so uncomfortable. i take advantage of shorts weather, and continue wearing them well into the coming seasons.
fall: sweats. who doesn't love sweats.
4. what is your favorite part about weddings? i hate myself for the fact that i have never been to a wedding. but if i had been, i would love watching the bride and groom together. completely and 100% in awe of each other.
5. at what point in your day do you find yourself the most exhausted? at times like these, when i've just spent the day treading a close to 4 mile hike. that usually wears me out a little.
6. in all seriousness, what could you just honestly not live without? in all seriousness? this is hard. disregarding food, water, and shelter..and considering that "what" is not "who", as terrible as it is, i would find it pretty difficult to live without my laptop. i'm not saying i COULD NOT survive without it, because after contemplating this question for about 5 minutes, there are not many objects i really couldn't live without. however, my computer holds quite a few things that i find incredibly useful on a day to day basis (fbook not being one of them.....jk) and it would be, without a doubt, not as fun to not have it around for my convenience. judge me as you will.
7. if you could be anyone in the world, this century or before, who would you choose to be? i'm not going to even try to bullshit this one. i honestly don't know enough about history to be able to even remotely answer this question.
8. what is your favorite way to unwind from a completely ridiculous day full of chaos? HOT SHOWER. and fbook. and blog. maybe a good cry, and cuddle with my pupps:)

DEAL.

all better.

honesty is a virtue and life isn't so bad:)

i realize this post is lame.

sometimes in life, you have to accept things the way they are. whether you want to or not. it's really not up to you. or me in this case. it's starting to catch up with me. acceptance is beginning to occur again. realization is beginning to occur again. yeah this is not the most fun part of my day. i hate realization. also realizing that i have been very negative lately. i need to knock that off i think. i've had just about enough of that.
dedications?
this dedication goes to Jesus Christ- thanks for listening to my million prayers a billion thousand times a day. i know i'm a whiny bitch, so thanks for sticking it out with me. love you long time.

least favorite thing.

least favorite thing= situations. i hate situations. why? because it's a situation, and i never seem to be able to figure those out. i am in such a rut. such confusion. it's honestly a bit ridic to say the least. i shouldn't be this hot and bothered. i really shouldn't. but guess what. i am. guess why? i'm in a situation. what are you supposed to do when you can't make up your mind, or they can't make up theirs, or maybe they/you already did but you don't even know it? do you wait it out? because that's what i do. my non-action is usually the only solution i can come up with to situations. i sit back and ride it out. usually i do that. i just don't know if i can keep doing that. this situation has really got me annoyed. maybe i don't want to sit back. maybe i want answers. now. ay ay ay. not easy. not fun. i just need to get that off my chest. i just need to blog about a situation that i can't figure out.
to the person i am blogging about- you really don't even deserve to be mentioned in my blog.
