Don't ever....

Go to Red Robin at 8 o' clock on a Friday night in the dating and engagment capital of the world. Ever.

9:30. Finally seated. Happy.

Pecan

Yesterday in the Cannon Center, they had the cutest little pecan tarts. I'm not a huge fan of pecan pie but in such a cute form, I couldn't resist!

Pecan tart+my outfit=Thanksgiving in March

Dorm Life

I just realized I never posted pictures of my dorm! It has gone through several transformations (ie got messier, holiday decorations, mostly got messier) as the year has gone on. Here is what I did!

20x30 sq. ft. of awesome

Extra storage. And no, I don't play the cello.

The comfiest bed known to college students. And man.

The desk. Where the facebooking, I mean uh, homework happens.

Christmas!

We couldn't bear to take down the lights...so they are still up!

Our door. We love chalkboards.

The Day of Love

I love Valentine's Day. A lot. It's the cutest holiday, by far. This year, mom sent me a package of fun things to make cute cards with so we had a little hall activity! I hadn't gotten those creative juices pumping in a very long time so when it came time to make cards, I crancked out something like 9 cards. Sheesh. It had been way too long! Here is what I made!

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}.

Over and out.

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.

Over and out.
