motivate yo self


>>this girl cannot get away with drinking a dr.p after 4 and expect to be soundly dreaming by 2:06. Nope, not ever in the books. so naturally mental scrapbooking and blogging takes place.

not to mention big things are coming, which pretty much has the same effect on sleep as caffeine so, there ya go, double whammy.

but first, FINALS WEEK.
so lets get that motivation kicked into gear and finish strong!! 
and hope for at least more motivation for studying than I have at the gym… which is a work in progress. you guys i've been trying but I get so bored going by myself, how can I fix this problem?!

but there is a light at the end of the tunnel… 16 days until departure to italy. 
i've finally been getting some time to build up some excitement for this coming adventure of mine. oh I feel so blessed already that i'm going to be able to experience this. our last group meeting is tomorrow, and then the next time we see each other as a group we will be arriving at RCO airport probably high on excitement buzz but drowsy because our timetables will have taken a 1-80. (8:00 am italy = 12 am utah) YEEP! 

happy easter weekend to you all

xoxo, and hopefully sweet dreams soon.

sissy's senior prom

two of the sweetest girls at davis looked beyond gorgeous going to their senior prom last night

i can't believe my little sis is graduating. it was literally yesterday when that was me! What is this! life is nuts and i'm so grateful to have grown up with sisters like mine… it just doesn't get better than that. 

and it is not okay that italy and alaska are separating us for five months so you will all have to comfort and help me cope through that because i really don't know what i'm going to do without her for so long. (i'm serious. i like cupcakes & sprite.) but we both have our own adventures to live and i know we'll be better people because of them so pictures and stories better make up for it. miss you already!

even better than

the fact that i'll be in italy in less than ONE month and see jordan in 2 months is even better than a bruges waffle.








… and trust me. there are few things better than a bruges waffle.

spring cleaning



Can you say spring to the clean??

 I spent the majority of my day on saturday cleaning out my closet and drawers… and oh does it feel good. I couldn't believe some of the pieces I was pulling out that I, for some reason, had held onto for years now.
You have to understand that I hoard things, big time. (admittance is the 1st step, right?) So this was a big deal. But it was much needed. My closet can breathe a little bit more now and lets be honest, so can I. Yayy!! Maybe this will start to happen more often now :)

It was high time these guys hit the road!


but me and my hoarder-self feel bad about just throwing everything away, so donations to DI are bagged up and ready to be taken :)
What do you do with the clothes you don't want anymore?


& do you ever wish you could just spring clean some people out of your life… no? ya me neither.

hope you're happy

To: the punk who stole my things.

I definitely came to the conclusion that my computer charger was stollen only after I tore apart my house, car, and all my bags multiple times a day for almost a week. I was in denial because a.) isn't everyone honest in davis county? and b.) that little power source is stinkin expensive. 

So, to whoever thought that they could steal from a trusting and maybe slightly naive girl i hope you're happy. I hope you can sleep at night knowing that your integrity was shot in exchange for what, $50-$60 from reselling it on amazon? This kind of dishonestly will get you no where in life, you may think it will for a little while, but it will catch up with you. & you will have gained nothing. Was it really that big of a deal that I had to buy a new charger? No, I  mean it definitely would have been nice to get those super cute neon nike frees i've been eyeing, but what really bothers me is that people like you find it OKAY to live this kind of lifestyle. To hurt others in exchange for your own gain. I pity you, and feel sad for whatever circumstances brought you to this. Where is your conscience? Where is your pride in representing humanity? 
Where is your honesty?
I don't understand how these simple values can mean absolutely nothing to some people.
I hope you're happy.


on the other hand…
I've been enjoying these beautiful grapefruits the past few days… and mmmm. :)
They are nectar from the gods.
