I am BYU

Wow. I haven't posted in a loooonnnnggggg time. This past week, I had 2 midterms, a test, a paper, and a scholarship all due. The weeks before have been pretty similar. Can you forgive me? Please? To make it up to you, here is a massive photo dump!

"World of Dance" slightly disappointing. Maybe it's because I'm a little spoiled...

Creamery ice cream after however, did not disappoint.

Floor nail painting part. All the girls who weren't out on a date on a Friday night.

Ward-but-not-ward-sponsored "Office" premier party. We were supposed to dress up. I was the writer of the "Office".....

Football! We lost but we had fun. Ok and it was freaking HOT but we still had fun.
Football quote of the year-"There must be some boy who will come to the game with you just so he can sit in these awesome seats" -My dear old mother.

Other fun things I don't have pictures of: Hall jam sessions (umm...there's a lot of talented people here...) Conference, American Heritage study group, Major Fair, Temple Square, Communications department open house, impromtu hall parties, girls getting asked to homecoming, Cafe Rio, cousin visits, parents visits, Red Mango!, Target runs, boy drama that turns out to be hilarious, dates, International Cinema, Provo Public Library, Chik-Fil-A, Plato's Closet, Brickoven Pizza, Paris Party with old peeps, FHE, ward prayer, campus exploring and much more.

I want to walk into these drawings...

Or at least reach in and steal those girl's hair and dresses! Holy. Freaking. Cute.

These were done by Danny Brito and are done completely in colored pencils. Holy moly! I couldn't do that with colored pencils! Well, I couldn't do anything with colored pencils. Or with anything for that matter! Check out his other work {here} and {here}.

Can I just say one thing? I hate resizing pictures. I do. It stinks. Why can't everything just fit automatically and look fabulous the first time? I'm learning!!

Here is what I wore to the Rooney concert last week!

skirt: nordstrom bp/shirt: h&m/ring: forever 21

Quick story about the ring. My mom got it from a friend for a birthday but it didn't fit her. So I, being the fantatsic daughter I am, took it off her hands for her. Get it? You know, I took it off her hands, you wear rings on your hand? Never mind. I should just stop now.

Music Monday

I have been meaning to jump on the Music Monday bandwagon as I LOVE to find new bands and artists.

To kick off what will hopefully be a long standing tradition of awesomeness, here is one of my most favorite bands that I actually was able to go see for the 4th time on Saturday.

Rooney!

This was the best I have ever seen them! They go out there and have a great time! Here are some concert pictures! I really like exclamation points!

From top to bottom, left to right:
set list (which I got!); ned brower, he is a daddy.
robert; more robert because you can't ever get enough
the stage set up and louie
mom and robert (her rockstar crush); me and erin with the band, minus louie :(

I don't really have any good pictures of the guitarist taylor because these stupid girls shoved...I don't want to talk about it.

Well, I wanted to show you some videos but blogspot won't let me add them. I shall investigate. In the meantime, go watch the "I Can't Get Enough" music video and "When Did Your Heart Go Missing @ Ram's Head Live!"

cool beans.

I just watched this movie for the first time the other day. I always thought something was missing in my life and this is it. The hole in my heart is now filled.

You have learned well young grasshopper.

This is my brother. On the left is what he usually wears. The shorts are no doubt filthy and probably haven't been washed in a couple weeks. He thought that teeshirt was the funniest thing ever. And those slippers....I don't know what else I can say. On the right, is what he wore to the 8th grade dance! It was all his idea too! (Except the hat. You can't expect him to get it all right on his own at his age can you?) He reported that all the girls kept saying he was "sooooo adorable" (imagine a girl with WAY to much eyeliner and a super short skirt saying that.) He also came home with several bobby pins clipped to his vest and tie. Bobby pins are the new love note? *clips bobby pin on cute boy and runs away giigling*

Either way, I'm proud. Now where are those shorts and the five million like them? I want to try out my new matches...

ps. please excuse the goofy expression on the right. he is just way too cool for pictures.

I broke my promise...

BUT! It's summer time so I will have way more time! Not that I didn't have a lot of time during the school year...I mean come on, it was Senior year...I could have squeezed it in between 2 AP classes, my college level math class, college apps, scholarship apps, knowledge bowl, the spring musical, parties, homework, hangouts and graduation. Oh who am I kidding. Whoever said senior year is the easiest and most fun year had a sick sense of fun! Ok, I still had a great time but I can do without all the crazy stress thank you very much. Oh wait, 2 and a half months and it starts all over again but at a collegiate level. Sweet. Well, here are some pics. A couple outfit pics, a couple graduation, a whole lotta fun! Like how I did that?

I wore this on our one day of sunshine since school got out.

Top: Graduation from {seminary}; Baccalaurete
Middle: I helped smuggled lightsabers in for an epic battle; right after getting my diploma
Bottom: 600+ graduates

Alright, that's all for now.

I've been a bad blogger

It's very true. I sat here trying to come up with some awesome excuse.....but I couldn't come up with one. (And I am fantastic at making excuses. Fantastic.) So this is me, not being a bad blogger. A while ago, my friend's sister in law took my senior pictures (woah. Senior? I know, crazy). I had so much fun! I had never really done a "photo shoot" before, especially not one I put together! Here are my favorites from the day!

inspiration from the lovely elsie flannigan. I went back through her archives and couldn't find the picture but check out her other cuteness {here)

Izze's drank from paper straws are really the only way to go.

This awesome barn is right down the street from my house! I sorta live in the sticks but I love it!

I just like gnomes. That's all.

More examples of the farms by my house.

Check out my fantastic photog's other work {here}

ps. the pictures of the girl jumping around crazy? That's my cute friend Kelli.

So....are we good now? I solemly swear to post more. Promise.
