week #3

book progress:

goal-50 pages

actual-50 pages

we're gettin there...i'm no stephenie meyer(finishing twilight in 3 months)..but i'm feeling pretty good as a writer who didn't major in english lit and a person who just started her passion for reading and writing..

i can now die happy

okay! so i've been waiting a year to see this woman! sarah beth and i sat in our nose bleed section seats and loved every minute of it. originally the date for this concert was set for november, but celine got sick and had to postpone it until this past weekend. we were all so bummed! but the wait was worth it! CELINE is my hero!

really jason. really.

So i'm slightly late on this post, but you all know i was devastated when stephanie didn't get a rose. i may have shed a tear or two. but my next pick was jillian and now that option is shot. enjoy the disappointment jason. 10 bucks says whoever he chooses doesn't last..try and prove me wrong jay. just try.

who says she's the next bachelorette? i totally see it comin...

week #2

book progress-

goal: 40 pages

actual: 40 pages

I think i wrote for about 3 days straight..now i'm just brainstorming a few ideas for the main plot... stay tuned for next week

<3

I'd like to say that i'm the kind of girl who doesn't care about valentine's day. I'd like to say that I'm the kind of girl who find's it overrated and that there shouldn't be a set day to express love to you're loved one...that it should be something done through out the year...that it shouldn't just be some excuse. I'd like to say that but i can't. i'm a hopeless romantic..i love roses and chocolates..i love surprises and grand gestures..i love romantic candle lit dinners..i don't find vday to be overrated...so sue me.

it's my party and i'll cry if i want to

Well...i'm not crying i just realized yesterday that once you hit 22 there are no other birthdays to look forward to. it's all down hill from here..haha..let me explain.

if you belong to the church you'll understand most of these..

8 years old-you look forward to your baptism

12 years old-you're finally out of primary and moving onto young women/young men

14 years old-you're finally old enough to go to stake dances

16 years old-you get your drivers license and you are finally allowed to date(even if you did it a little before that ;) it's offially legal now..haha)

18 years old-you're officially an adult..and you get to smoke legally if you're interesting in that sort of thing..haha

20 years old-you're finally NOT a teenager anymore

21 years old-actually feel like an adult and you get to gamble and drink..once again..if you're into that sort of thing...

where do you go from there? you get to rent cars when you're 25..something to look forward to if you need to rent a car. and then 60-something when you're a "senior citizen" and get discounts at restaurants/movies/stores...haha..but really people..i think more things to look forward to need to happen through of the years, rather than just getting old...wouldn't you agree?

I woke up to a bouquet of gorgeous flowers on the kitchen table, even though ryan HATES buying them...quote-what's the point in spending 50 bucks on things that are just going to die in a week anyway-end quote. It's true, but i LOVE flowers! and appreciate them nonetheless. so against his principles..because he loves me, he gets them for me:) BUT he refuses to on vday..but that's a post for another day..

And just when i thought i was going to be alone all day, ryan skipped school to be with me. :) The only other thing i wanted to do yesterday was see "he's just not that into you" which i enjoyed very much so. after our large popcorn and DP we weren't hungry for dinner so we just went home in time for...GREY'S and PRIVATE PRACTICE. i couldn't have asked for a better birthday...

new moon teaser

look away if you're sick of twilight...i don't think i'll ever be.

Now this obviously isn't a real trailer because they haven't even started making the movie yet..but it gave me goosebumps when i saw it and i wanted to share it with those who are just as excited about the upcoming movie as i am...it's a compilation of lots of other different movies..she didn't use taylor lautner. instead she used steven straight, but you get the picture..anyway i think this girl did a pretty good job putting it together..

terrible horrible no good very bad day

ryan didn't have the best day ever today. it started when he woke up late for work and couldn't take his morning shower. then while trying to transfer files from my comp to the hard drive the power went out and lost all of my pictures from my computer AGAIN. and then it doesn't help at school when you are in a group for the whole semester and the team leader feels their ideas are the only ideas that will work. on top of that i guess ryan had been texting/calling me for 2 hours and my phone apparently wasn't working. so he raced home thinking i had fallen in the shower and was unconsious or something. after finding out I was fine and that my phone was just having issues, he was frustrated by the fact that when he had texted that he just wanted to get a pizza..i didn't get it. so i offered to make a few others things and they were all shot down. extremely against going back out he decided he still wanted the deep dish hot and ready..SO he went back out just to get there and have them tell him..they ran out 10 minutes before..haha...now ryan is still trying to fix my comp and find my pictures..and being unsuccessful at all cost..poor guy:(

this was one of my favorite books growing up...

week #1

so...book progress...i kinda took a week off when i went to see anna and my family...

my goal: 40 pages

actual: 30 pages

i'd love this image or something like it for a cover...(if it's ever published)

banna and minders

This week anna(my best friend since 7th grade)'s husband went out of town so since i have so much time on my hands, i went down to logan to keep her company. We watched the women, ate cafe rio, had a girls night with alix, and spent time with my family. It was nice to have some anna/mindy time..we haven't done that since december '06 when we were roommates!

eating rainbows from pace's in bountiful...it's a slushy with soft serve..sound interesting but it tastes delish..

ryan's top 5

ryan wasn't tagged, but i felt it's only fair for him to choose his top 5 as well..haha

1. Jessica Alba..we all know if ryan could have any woman on this earth it would be her..

2. Rachel Mcadams

3. kate beckinsale

4. jennifer aniston...what guy wouldn't put her on their top 5?

5. sophia bush..he likes her raspy voice

is it strange that it doesn't bother ryan nor i over things like this? haha..we're confident in our marriage..
