what a degree in psychology gets you.

since obtaining my degree, i have been less than active. i wake up late, watch the price is right, make delicious lunches, then sit around till paige gets home. then we party. its been fun.

i'm glad to announce that i have been reading {something i never do} and doing lots of organizing {something i always do}. yesterday i cleaned and organized my parent's computer room and came upon this little number.

it was my mother's "wedding suit". when i asked my dad if he remembered what it was he said "of course i do, its the first thing i took off of your mother." which was promptly followed by "ewwww!" from paige and i.

i'm also getting a fair share of shopping in. last weekend i bought a foundation brush {best thing ever} and russian red lipstick from mac. i never knew how liberating a color of lipstick could be. its great.

and today ... i finally cut my hair!



i hope your spring is going as lovely as mine.

splashing in some lovely puddles.

i'm reading a charming little book right now by sharon larsen. her story is a testimony that despite disappointments, or unfulfilled dreams, life can still be rich and rewarding if we relish all of life's experiences. read it.

yeah thats right.

i graduated from byu today.

clean.

my best friend right now ...

i am currently doing one of the most disgusting chores on the planet, that is, cleaning my apartment to move out. gross.
wish me luck.

at last.

here are some things i was thinking today:

-this is the last time i'll have to walk up this blasted hill.
-this is the last time i'll walk pass the bikes and think, i wish i had a bike.
-this is the last time i'll struggle to pay attention in marriage prep.
-this is the last time i'll be late to film.
-this is the last time i won't want to go back to school after eating lunch.
-this is the last time i will have to sit on the ground in guitar.
-this is the last time i'll hear the silly jokes my ta tells.
-this is the last time i'll be walking back from campus, look at the Y and feel so grateful i came to such a great university.

its been fun. thanks byu.

oh sweden, you've done it again.

theory: all good things come from sweden.

her. her voice. the dancing. the video. the guy at the piano. the song.
cool.

this is perhaps the most beautiful thing i've ever read.

'strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. say to them that are of a fearful heart, be strong, fear not: behold, your god will come with vengeance, even god with a recompense; he will come and save you.'
{isaiah 35:3-4}

and. this picture makes me smile. oh family. how i love you.
