fall semester.


I am officially enrolled in Gold II Ballroom & Latin. AS well as a member of the BYU Back-up Touring team.  I am So grateful for these wonderful opportunities to improve my dancing.
It's gonna be a fun year!

... If my spanish class doesn't suck the life out of me.

Majors.

You know what is so stupid? When I tell people my major is Spanish & they say, "oh! Speak spanish for me." Or when my roommate says she is trying to get into the vocal performance program & people ask her to sing something for them.  

That's like asking a dietetics major to go on a diet for you.

Or a elementary ed major to teach you something.

Or a Landscape architecture major to landscape something for you.

Or a Pre-med student to give you surgery.

Or a pre-law student to argue with you.

Or an accounting major to create a budget for you.

see my point?

birffday.

this makes me so happy.  I got to spend my 19th birthday with three of my absolute favorite people.  
Everything about this is perfect.  It was the most perfect day.

8.26.2012

weird.

When you spend everyday for the past 5 months with a person it's really hard to get used to the fact that you won't be seeing them again for roughly 862 days.  i miss my friend.  a lot.  I hope my post owl will fly all the way to Brazil.

45 minute shower.

I've found that the best thing to do when I am upset or sad is to sit in the shower & pray for 45 minutes. Everything feels so much better after that.  

(P.S. Sorry to Kelli for taking the hot water)

8.18.2012

once again.

little bit of junior high girl angst when i saw he liked my status.
can i just be married to this lovely professor of humanities yet?

sports.

People don't play sports because its fun.  Ask any athlete, most of them hate it, but they couldn't imagine their life with out it.  Its part of them, the love/hate relationship.  Its what they live for.  They live for the practices, parties, cheers, long bus rides, invitationals, countless pairs of different types of shoes, water, Gatorade, & coaches you hate but appreciate.  They live for the way it feels when they beat the other team, & knowing those two extra sprints they ran in practice were worth it.  They live for the way they become a family with their team, they live for the countless songs they sing in their head while training all those hours.  They live for the competition, they live for the friends, the practices, the memories, the pain, its who they are.  it's who we are.

80's.

when rach comes to town, We go 80's dancing.
Before.

After.
(dear guy trying to dance up on me, 
next time try not to have such a pointy belt buckle, so when I try to make a quick get away it doesn't get caught on my pocket & rip my pants. 
Sincerely, you're the reason we left early.)

We didn't make it early enough to get in free, we were starving, we were sweaty.
it was fantastic.

how to lose a guy in 20 minutes.

Ever seen the spectacular Kate Hudson movie "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days"
Well, if you need to lose a guy, but you don't have 10 days, I'll tell you how to lose a guy in 20 minutes.

1:  be very, very busy.
2:  only agree to go on a date the night before guy moves to nevada.
3:  talk about how much you hate boys.
4:  talk about how much you hate school.
5:  talk about how much you hate people in general.
6:  Discuss all you ex boyfriends.
7:  Talk about how you will never get married cause you are convinced the entire male gender is untrustworthy & you are afraid of sex.
8:  have your friends show up & date troll.
9:  have keys ready & hand on door knob to indicate you are going inside now.
10:  above all else, just be extremely socially awkward like me & you'll never have a problem with any unwanted guy ever again.

I wish social interaction wasn't a necessary part of life.

let's be honest...

I am completely smitten by this man.

7.26.2012

I don't remember.

I don't remember, any more,
The exact shape of your hands
As I held them in mine,
Caressed them,
Memorized the length of your fingers,
The depth of your calluses.

I don't remember, any more,
Exactly your height, how much
Taller than me
You were, where
My head rested on your chest
When you held me tightly close.

I don't remember, any more,
Your scent, when we lay together
Creating our own
Magic rhythm,
Matching our heartbeats as we
Touched the sky, together.

I don't remember, any more,
The sound of your voice, calling
My name as though
It were a song
Within itself, a precious treasure
You valued with all your being.

And I don't remember, any more,
The color of your eyes, the shape
Of your lips,
Only...
How your eyes crinkled at the corners
And your laugh, as you told me,

"I love you."

it's an odd day when,

I spend my free time watching Star Wars by myself & posting things like this:

So, to all those star wars people out there, let's have a party.

Just to clarify, Harry Potter will always be my first love.
