Stupid Tests :(

Tests are pointless and you know why? Some people just automatically suck at tests. Like me. And it is just oh-so-convenient that tests are basically your ENTIRE GRADE in college. And then there's basically no such thing as extra credit in college, so we (we being all the people like me who suck at tests) are basically screwed.

Hopefully my day gets better when I go to see Inception with Chris, my roommate, his roommate and his friends tonight...

DISNEY ADVENTURES WITH NANCY!

Today we watched our favorite songs from our favorite Disney movies: Mulan, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, and Beauty and the Beast! It was awesome. We sang along to the songs we picked. We also found the videos for said songs on YouTube...so we took our cameras and took pictures of the videos :D I'm not going to caption them because there are way too many and it would take way too long.

Oh we also ate Doritos before starting our adventure. :)

Have a good day!!!

*AUTHOR'S NOTE* I did have the pictures I took on here. But I took them off, because this blog took up WAY too much space.

Friends!

First off, friends are awesome. And guess what?? I'm slowly but surely making new ones here in Idaho!

To name my new friends...

Well, all my roommates are my friends. They are just awesome. I couldn't have asked for better roommates. There's Hahna (she's engaged and super sweet and nice), Megan (spunky and awesome), Keri (sweet and funny), Sienna [sarcastic (yay!) and nice] and Kara (nice and funny).

Then there's Nancy. She's probably the best person I've ever met. We hang out all the time and watch Glee, Raising Hope, and Bones, and then we have movie nights and adventures and its just awesome. I'm glad to call her my best friend :)

Then I've recently made new friends. Their names are Bryce, Chad, and Chris. They are hilarious! Always making my day whenever we hang out. Chad introduced me to Jim Gaffigan, Bryce is just funny with whatever he says, and Chris...well...he's a lot alike Chad and Bryce. :)

Those are the friends I've made so far, and I anticipate to make many more as my college education progresses. :)

What Good Are Alarm Clocks...

You know your Friday's gonna suck when your alarm clock fails to go off and you oversleep...but on the bright side of things, I got 1 1/2 extra hours of sleep today, which felt oh so wonderful.

I hate that feeling of "I'm rushed" when you find out you overslept. This was my first college experience of oversleeping, and it was not fun. Luckily I was able to pull off looking decent and make it to class on time.

I never want to oversleep again...

Its So Cold Here!!

Today, it rained. A LOT! Its days like these where I just want to put on a hoodie and some sweats, swoop my hair up into a high ponytail, wrap myself in my jean blanket from my nana, and drink some delicious hot cocoa (unfortunately, my hot cocoa NEVER looks like the hot cocoa pictured below...if only it could).

And then after getting all that done, if I were at my home in Riverton, I would ask my mom (or my dad or my brother) to build me a fire (as I am incapable of doing so myself) and bask in its awesome, warm glory. But alas, I am not in Riverton...so I'll just have to make do with the hoodie, sweats, blanket and cocoa.

Hmmm. Wondering what my post will be like when it first snows here... ;)

May you all have an enjoyable day today! If its raining where you're at, go dance in it!! Its so much fun!! Trust me, I would know :)

Sleep!

Sleep is a wonderful thing...yet college students take it for granted. We go to sleep roughly around midnight (most of the times its later) and think "oh yeah I'll totally be fine at 6:30 in the morning." Such is not the case.

Whats worse is that its becoming that wonderful time of year where you wake up at 6:30 AM and think you slept all day to 6:30 PM (also known as "waking up and its pitch black outside").

*Sigh* I miss having lots of sleep. Good thing I have a 3-4 hour break in between my classes everyday. Nap time!

My Weekly Adventure With Nancy

Nancy and I took an adventure to the BYU-Idaho Bookstore today, and we had LOTS of fun. But first, we went to the Kimball Building (Student Services Building) where she had to get tickets for something and I had to get quarters to do laundry. While in the Kimball, we had to fill up our water bottles with the best water on campus...

we call it "The Fountain of the Gods"

After filling our water bottles with the best water I have ever tasted (which is saying a lot considering I come from Riverton, UT where the water is thick enough to chew...), we walked to the Bookstore, and on the way we saw...

aren't they pretty? :)

We walked to the Bookstore which is where our true adventure began. We went a little picture happy while in the Bookstore...

a book called Brianna, My Brother, and the Blog by Jack Weyland (author of Charly).

Nancy found this book the first week of school, and read it in the Bookstore. I followed in her footsteps and also started reading it, and the copy that I picked up just happened to be signed by Jack Weyland himself!

Nancy wanted to show everyone how she reads her books in our little "nook" in the Bookstore :)

Nancy found a picture of the statues of Joseph and Emma with the Salt Lake LDS Temple in the background. Whoever this photographer is, s/he is amazing!!

I realize this picture is...a bit off. But, thats how Blogger decided to upload it, and I am not technologically capable of fixing that at the moment. If any of you know how to do this, feel free to tell me in a comment ;) Anyway, its a picture of the San Diego Temple. I want to get married there one day :)


They have the Glee version of "Don't Stop Believin'" at the Bookstore! Nancy and I are "gleeks"

They also have the Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl score :)

Aww how precious :)

The sticker on the box for this says its a cake topper...I may have to look into this when I get married :)

The Bookstore has flower bow things (they're all the rage these days) and they were the size of our face.

This is a real t-shirt at the Bookstore. All missionaries should wear this under their white button-up shirt ;)

Same rule applies for sister missionaries ;)

This is just awesome :) All males should own this t-shirt

If anyone feels the need to get me something for Christmas, ^^ is just an idea. :)

My mom went to BYU-Idaho back before dinosaurs roamed the Earth and they called it Ricks College...so, this is for you, mom--a little section for Ricks memorabilia. They even have the "Spirit of Ricks" t-shirt :D

A jacket that has Ricks College on it. Maybe I should get my mom this for Christmas...

Whoever arranged this is a genius :)

In 10 years (or so) I want to buy my daughter this shirt. If only it said "my mom WENT to BYU-Idaho"...

Nancy is holding a super spiral stack of Post-It Notes! Its pretty sweet :)

This picture is also a bit...off. My aunt Tamara is a big Jack Handey fan, and I saw this in the store and just had to take a picture of it. So, here's to you, Tamara :)

One day Nancy and I played this in our "nook" with some random guys (only to get their names) on a piece of paper we had. They turned out to be pretty funny :)

We used one of these pens to do the Mad Libs mentioned above...and then put it back when we were done :)

Nancy thinking about what to write with our special pen

EVERY WRITER'S HEAVEN!! (in case you can't tell what it is, its a wall of pens)

Colored duct tape!! I have an urge to make a wallet out of the purple one :)

We found some pretty crazy glasses in the store...

See?? BYU-Idaho does believe in fun!! :P

They have some major construction going on around campus, but this is the main area of danger. You can't really see it that well, but its A LOT of construction...

I just had to take a picture of it. To show it really is dangerous on campus ;)

Hahna is my roommate. She is getting married to a guy named Jacob Harris in December in the Oakland LDS Temple :) congrats Hahna!!!

So, that's my adventure with Nancy :) we've decided to make it a weekly thing.

May everyone have a splendid day!
