alright, i realize that i am a horrible person. i accept this. it has been exactly 5 billion years since i've blogged about anything, and i dont think that i could ever apologize enough. and i left you during a 30 day challenge no less! but my one year of blogging mark is coming up, and i cannot miss that! i have already done something i told myself i would never do, completely not blog anything during a month, aka this past novemeber, but i am not going to miss out on blogging about my one year anniversary of blogging awesomeness! now for you hardcore fans out there you might realize that the actual one year anniversary of my 'first post eva...' is on dec. 13th. but seeing as how that is directly in the middle of my crazy 'take 6 finals in 2 days' finals week, i probably will not be posting then.... so we're gonna celebrate early!
so yeah! it was a year ago exactly (lets pretend, it sounds better) that i decided to start a blog; mostly for my mother so she could creep on my life, and partly cuz i was tired of having all these witty things running through my head all the time with no one to tell. haha so i started my blog not really expecting anything, not even really expecting to really use it but it turned out to be superohmegaawesome, at least in my eyes. =]
despite the long droughts of nothingness i actually blogged a lot more than i thought i would (92 posts! almost 100! hahaa) and found that i really enjoyed it, and apparently other people enjoyed it as well. as you can see over there on the right i have 12 official followers, which i am very proud of/love with all my heart. dont worry, i know there are those of you who creep on me unofficially as well, dont worry i love you too! (but i would love you more if you felt the need to join that list of people over there, which would be awesome...hint hint...hahah) =] oh and probably my greatest achievement concerning my blog would be that my most popular post has over 300 views! 300! the next most popular has 29...hahah. but im pretty sure the credit for that goes to matt lewis and his sexy self. =]
but yeah basically that's whats happened to my blog this past year. what about me do you ask?? well lets see, last year i was just a little college freshman who knew nothing about life (julian smith was my favorite youtuber for goodness sake!), and now i am a college sophomore (please no comments jessica) who still knows pretty much nothing about life ( i have however discovered the love of my life in the form of olan rogers, who is about 13928923743892769436372984y32894783092 trillion times funnier than julian). no but in all seriousness this past year has been pretty awesome. i made some friends that i will hopefully have for the rest of my life, i grew in my love for children (nothing creepy about this statement. i ma simply referring to the awesome time i had at camp this summer), and my best friend is about to be baptized! basically awesome. thats not to say that there weren't any rough times. i my soul was pretty much taken hostage by pinterest rendering me basically a vegetable for a good majority of the summer, and sometimes still (good or bad thing?? still cant tell sometimes), all my friends have been sucked into that friend-sucker-upper also known as the MTC, and i still only have vague ideas about what i want to do with my life, major/career wise. but honestly, who doesn't have these problems??
but now for the part that i am most excited for.... the futureeeeeeeee. what does this next year hold in store for me?? well, let me tell you it is pretty much kind of super awesome! (fun fact, it took me like 6 tries to spell that word right for some reason.... sometimes i feel as though college makes me dumber... haha) anyways so the life plan for the next year. are you ready for it?? here it goes:
this coming winter semester at BYU will be my last for a while, like for 2, 2 1/2ish years. why do you ask?? well, you see in less than a month i will be 20 years old (!!!!! i know right!!!) which means that i will then only have a year until i am 21....aka a year until i can go on a mission. which is what i am going to be doing. i am going to go on a mission!!!! for those of you who might not know what a mission for my church is, it's basically spending 2 years, or for girls aka me, 18 months, teaching the gospel. So basically i will be living away from home, with no personal cell phone, facebook, music that i love with all my soul, talking to strangers about the church all day for 18 months. weird right?? hahah anyways, what does this have to do with me leaving BYU so soon since i have a year until i will be able to go on a mission? well missions are kind of super expensive and i am broke. so i will be living at home for free and working all next summer and fall semester, and maybe even the whole school year next year to save enough money cuz right now i have nothing. haha but i am so excited! it is going to be weird not being at BYU with everybody and just the thought of a mission kinda scares me to death but i am really excited about my decision to go and can't wait to start working on making it happen.
so well yeah, thats just a little summary of everything thats happened this past year/ a little sneak peak into my future. im kinda excited for next december to see how this coming year plays out, and how many more followers i have (hint hint: follow me please! haha =]) and hopefully i will do better at posting this year. i do have some good posts in the works though that im excited about (probably the best movie monday you have ever seen =] so get excited! haha). but yeah, hope you are doing awesome, sorry about being the biggest bum that has ever existed in the history of the world, and hope finals week goes well for those of you that have those nasty things! peace and blessings, peace and blessings.

dayyyyy threeeeee
okie dokie! well first off i have to apologize for missing a couple of days... i have been super busy/sick/just lazy the past 2 days and that is unacceptable. but look! i pushed the dates back on the posts and made it look like i never missed a day! yay for magic and cheating! ok well anyways, day numbero drei: your views on drugs and alcohol.
ok well wow. it's getting into some pretty serious stuff i guess. my views on drugs and alcohol? well obviously(we have a rapist in lincoln park) drugs and alcohol are bad. we've all learned this since we were like what? 2 seconds old?? yeah. while i have never been schwasted or high like a kite before, i do know plenty of people who have and i feel no judgment towards them. if they want to fill their bodies with nastiness and kill their brain cells and be perpetually starving and drink crap that makes them puke their guts out and feel like boo boo the whole next day, thats fine with me. that is a-ok. i would totes never do it though. it kinda sounds like a form of torture.
however. there are situations when i do and plan on partaking in drugs. during period parties for example. ibuprofen is my life during these week long torture fests. during childbirth is another situation. I am going to practically have them knock me out with drugs during this little joy of life. and if ever there were a time that i did do actual drugs/alcohol it would be during these to escape the pain/torture. ( hahaha jk jk, but no that would be awesome right? hahaha jk) but i kind of find it funny how both these things kinda have to do with the same thing.... i think its a sign that if these things can drive a person to contemplate turning to drugs then there is something wrong with the system. i mean seriously who's idea was it to make it so that women would be stuck for life with debilitating pain that has the potential to turn into pushing a practically full grown human being out of their own bodies??? yeah i feel like there is something majorly wrong with that...
oh and another time when drugs are a must: having your wisdom teeth pulled. this is hopefully going to happen to me in the near future seeing as my wisdom teeth are currently trying to catapult out of my head. annd really the only thing that is going to make the experience of then slicing open my mouth and cutting my teeth out of my skull is the fact that i am going to tell them to drug me up so much that i will hopefully be straight loopy afterwards. expect videos. =] hahaha i am so excited for that!
anyways so yeah basically illegal drugs are bad. hugs not drugs. water not beer. stay in school. remember who you are. and peace and blessings, peace and blessings.

DAY TEWWWWOOOOOOOO! =]
alrighty! day two of the totally awesome 30 day blogging challenge! are you guys ready?? cuz i know i am! lets see what's in store for today...: where do you see yourself in 10 years?
ok well, im not gonna lie you guys, i think this is a pretty lameeee question. for some reason it's taking me back to 5th grade...i think they asked us the same question then....and oh yeah, every year since then. if i had kept track of all the where i see myself in 10 years i have done every single year since then, i would have my whole life neatly mapped out before me... that would be nice. hahaha i think though, back in 5th grade, i'm pretty sure i said like living in utah or something lamee and totally mormon like that so im pretty much on the golden path so far. rad! hahaha
anyways, 10 years from now. today, October 11, 2011. so what would that be? Oct. 11, 2021?? well dang, doesn't that sound all futuristic and what not. haha anyways so I will be 29, almost 30 years old...!!!! oh my.... that's quite an age... like 3 full whole decades! im just barely getting used to being around almost 2..... dang... idunno what i'm going to have done by then, though hopefully by then i will own a flying car and one of those microwaves that zap up full meals out of the sky. that'd be cool. i think i would quite enjoy flying around in my little flyingmoblie. or maybe someone will have discovered how to actually disapperate/apperate by then and i wont even need a flying car! yeah now that would be awesome!
no but seriously. i see myself in 10 years with my millions, that either i acquired myself with my stunning career, or you know married into with my fabulously wealthy (and bearded) husband. we will live in a mansion in utah (keeping in line with my 5th grade self, thats important) that we built with our raw bear hands, and by then would have adopted a couple of children from the romainian orphanages as well as have had a couple billion children ourselves since by then of course they dont use needles during childbirth and came up with a way that they just kind of teleport the child from inside your body to cradled in your arms. and our lives will be wonderfully wonderful. and on October 11, 2021 my husband and i will be contacted by movie producers who will want to make a movie of our wonderfully successful lives to show others the type of pure awesomeness that is possible in this life.
so um yeah. i think that basically sums up what i see happening in my life in 10 years, and im not gonna lie, im pretty dang excited! i am going to have quite the life. dont worry, maybe if you ask nicely i'll let you be in the movie about my life, so keep your fingers crossed! hahahahaha oh gosh. anyways, i hope your day is going fabulous and much better than mine so far. and i hope that each one you end up with a future as bright and promising and exactly like mine! (unless of course you are a male in which case you will marry a fabulously wealthy, beardless wifey). peace and blessings peace and blessings! =]

ohhh byu...
so apparently, according to my human development teacher, 30 to 40% of the girls here at byu have an eating disorder, as in anorexia/bulimia... lets think about that for a second. almost half of the female population here are crazy psychopaths who starve themselves/shove crap down their throats to make themselves puke their guts out on a regular basis... no wonder being here makes me hate myself so much. hhahaa no but knowing this does kinda makes me feel slightly better about myself, ish... i mean i know that i could/should most def lose weight, but at least im not a crazy chick eating nothing but the occasional cube of cheese every couple of weeks. obviously it would be impossible to look like half of these girls walking around on campus because i seem to be unable to get rid of my love of food, no matter how hard i try... oh well, if anything, this has taught me that the goal should be to be healthy and not a super skinny stick figure.... oh! and this probably also has to do with the fact that every single person here in provo runs every second of the day, which honestly makes me exhausted just thinking about it... hahaha anyways, hope your life is going well and that you aren't surrounded by starving girls 24/7! =] peace and blessings, peace and blessings.
