keep your mind wide open

i love having earlier church because then i have the rest of the afternoon to relax and nap. i tried to nap, but ended up watching a movie instead. what movie did i watch? bridge to teribithia. kind of random, i know, but i've weirdly been dying to watch it for awhile. i really love the show "new girl" with zooey deschanel (whom i practically worship). i recently rewatched all of season 1 last week too. there's a line in one of the episodes where jess (played by zooey) says "i should call you bridge to terabitha because you make children cry." ever since hearing that line i've been wanting to watch it. so i did. by myself. and let me tell you, i cry. no, no. I SOB. EVERY TIME. i probably looked like a freak sitting in my bed. alone. sobbing and wiping the tears from my face. regardless, it's a great movie and i regret nothing.

fun fact: i've only cried in 5 movies...bridge to teribithia, life is beautiful, when cedric dies in hp4, all of hp7, and madagascar 2...don't ask.

skiing, naps, and scum kings.

i definitely just woke up from a wonderful and much needed three hour nap.
after getting 5 1/2 hours of sleep and then skiing for 6 hours in possibly the best powder of the season, i definitely needed this nap. and i'm still a little tired. and i think i have to do homework now...which i'm dreading, but i need to do it. i should become less academically inept and more productive.
i'm being so lazy. but why not?

this week has been great though. and it's only wednesday. alex and mark came down to provo monday (because those lucky brats have spring break) and it was so nice to see people i know and enjoy that aren't at BYU. i love my BYU friends (even though most of them are from salt lake) but seeing people i don't normally see really made being in provo not so bad. we stayed up till midnight (because it's a school night and we can only stay in the lobby of J hall for so long) playing scum (and i was king for a majority of the game...until emily dethroned me and i eventually because butt scum where i got awful hands with 5 as my highest card) and just talking. i haven't had that much fun in a long time. and it even inspired me to stay in provo friday night (but mostly because my sister and her friend might be coming down to visit). maybe it is when people visit that i am most happy to be living in provo. because in all honestly, i hate provo. and i would much rather be living in salt lake. they are like two completely different worlds.

on another happy note, i have a job for when i get out of school. i am working for my uncle doran (an interior designer) at his office. i start training with katie (my cousins wife) on monday and i couldn't be more thrilled. this will be a great opportunity i think and i'm really looking forward to it.

oh. new blog layout. and it'll probably stay like this for a while. this is first layout i have actually truly liked. so props to foam magazine and my scanner.
