Addictions?

So lately I've realized how much I love habits... 

For example, everyday I set my alarm for 7:10, but push the snooze 3 times.  Getting myself our of bed at exactly 7:19 everyday... weird stuff like that.

Then there's other things that I've just recently discovered I really love to do! Such as:

Tetris. Love, love, love tetris lately.  I'm getting pretty good too I'd have to say.

I've always loved music, and been one that seeks out the new-and-best.  So within the past week I've discovered: Vampire Weekend (see previous post), also Chris Botti is incredible.  Last week I went to the local theater to see a band called The Hot Club of San Francisco--AMAZING show! They're a gypsy jazz band, that just catches your ear as soon as they pick up their instruments. Great great stuff.

Movies wise... Gilmore Girls. I'm pretty addicted. It's bad. I watched the entire first season in... 2 weeks. Should I admit that? haha it's just good stuff. I'll be starting the second season today!  The other movie lately? Igor!! HILARIOUS! I'd say it'd even come close to Meet the Robinsons. I know, I know... crazy. But see it and you'll (hopefully) agree.

Food=Fruit Snacks. 

duh.

I've always loved going to little cafe's.  I just love the feel of them, the ways they smell, the cute ways they're painted, the sounds, everything about them.  But at the same time I usually feel a little weird cause usually people go in to drink coffee.  Sure I like the smell of coffee but I've never drank it and don't plan on drinking it. So what do i do? Go and just sit there without ordering anything? nnnnooooooooo... italian soda. Most cafe's (specifically the one's here on campus) serve them and boy oh boy do I love them!! :) 

So in other words my life lately consists of: tetris, vampire weekend, gilmore girls, and italian sodas. This is truly college life. 

My Favorite of the Day:

THE best.

Now now, I know you think you have the best. But I can tell you... you don't. 

I love her more than expressible in such a small note.  

She has always been there for me, my best friend. 

She's always ready to talk and even more ready to listen.  

Even when I'm the natural idiot she loves me.  

She's put up with all kinds of crap I've given her, but shows love in return.

She shows appreciation. 

She knows exactly what to say. 

I know this all sounds like an exaggeration, but that's exactly why she's THE BEST--she's MY mom.  There's no way I could ever thank her for what she's given me. I truly hope to someday be the kind of mother to my children she's been to me.  We've had our trials, (living 2 hours away isn't exactly my favorite) but we work through them. I will forever be blessed to have her as my mom.  

Happy Birthday Mom. 

Uhh...

Ok. I don't really know what to write about.... but in some strange way I'm pretty sure I wanna write in this thing. Maybe if I just start going it'll eventually come to me right?? ...  

...uhh...

Too bad there isn't some kind of training book about what to talk about on these things. I guess I'll start with my weekend?

I went home on Friday cause it's my mom's birthday this Wednesday and considering I won't get to be there on Wednesday, I figured I'd do what I could.  So after the whole craziness of trying to decide if I would be able to come home or not (stupid weather) we finally just decided to go for it. So bla bla bla we finally get to Lehi. Yay! When I get home it's the usual stuff: wrestle with the brothers, talk with parents, text Leah to see what's up... ya know. Eventually we decide to go to dinner for the mother's birthday at JCW's. It was, of course, delicious and filling! Also got to run into Janelle there, which was kinda cool considering I haven't seen her in... couple months I guess. Crazy the way time works. Days go on forever but the months seem to fly.  Anyways... After eating my ranch bacon burger (and feeling at least 17 lbs heavier) I went up to Leah's  to help paint and texturize the main level! That was cool, I've never done that before, so it was interesting to learn how. I probably did horrible and they probably had to fix it all up after I left, but that's okay cause I felt like I still helped! (I also put my initials in the corner we'll see what they say when they see it! hehe) Soo... Then we all sat around and had nice conversations about life and the works till around midnight when Ty and Leah drove me home. It was a wonderful evening with the best friends ever.

Saturday was good. Just spent the day with family, which is no complaint. Went to Gavin's basketball game... He's a major sports kid. Then... I learned how to make fried rice!! I know it sounds stupid... but it's my favorite ever when my mom makes it- and now i finally learned!! After that the family came over for birthdays, and I got to go see my new cousin Carson! Darling. awww... That about sums up my day!

Sunday has just been well... Sunday. Bonnie came over at about 9, we made breakfast and ate lots of food. Then about 10ish we were off. I had to be back for church cause of my calling (whatta calling--go to a special sunday school class) so we drove through the storms of rain and snow and slush and sleet and plenty of fog to go around.

Well...

that's about all I have to write for now. Forgive this post, because YES  I do know it's boring. Buuut, I didn't know what else to write! So there ya go. :)

Here we go...

Weird... I don't know if I can actually blog. 

I just don't have anything interesting to say! Especially tonight. Too tired. 

So confession: I really just set this up so I could read Bry's blog. I like reading it, feeling like I have this weird tiny connection with her when I actually know what's going on in her life. If I hadn't read her blog I wouldn't have known about her job (which I'm a little too jealous of) or her boy (who does some pretty darn cute stuff)... sooo when she made her blog private it was time for me to get a blog of my own so that I could read in. 

Who knows. MAYBE I actually will write.

Tonight? doubtful... 

But tomorrow's a new day.
