Album Cover

On facebook people can write notes and there are always a wave of 2 or 3 that are popular and everyone kind of rushes to do them. Right now there is a pretty cool one, where you design your "album cover," I think that it is fun and I like the results that I come out with...here are the instructions and two of them that I have done so far (who knows I still may do more :D). (oh and for those who don't have photoshop I found out that you can use it online for free-cool, I've been having tons of fun ever since I found it.)

What would your own album look like if you were in a band? Follow the directions below and find out...

Here are the rules:

1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random”
or go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotations Page and select "random quotations"
or go to http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or go to http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.


28th


I can't believe that we are already to the last day of February, where has the month gone? It went so very quickly! But I believe that I loved every minute of it, I was able to do many things with my family, make new friends, and strengthen the relationships that I have with old friends. All in all it was a wonderful month, I will be kind of sad to see it pass but excited to welcome the new month of March.
What did you enjoy about February? What are you looking forward to in March? I can't wait to experience my new adventures and I am excited that I will be starting my new class "Weight Management" on Monday! I also just found some information about a Internship Showcase here at BYU, it looks really exciting/interesting and I think that I might enter it!
Good-Bye February, it has been a good one! WELCOME MARCH!

27th

(In the original image it was really cool, the "I Love You" kept going in a circle through the heart)

12 Year Old Girls

I just have to say how extremely grateful that I am not a 12 year old girl anymore (or in that age group), last night I went with a bunch of friends to the Draper Temple Open House, and it was Wednesday night so of course there was tons of mutual groups there. It seemed that every time I was in a line or on the bus there was a group of girls nearby me. Not that I am denying that I used to be exactly like them but now that I am older and a little more mature they are super-duper annoying!
I think that the most annoying part was on the bus ride back to the church where had parked our cars, this is the conversation that I heard from a girl as she was calling her mom to tell her that we were on our way back to the church. It went as follows (mind you in a very high squeaky voice)
"Hi Mom, we're on our way home..well we're not really on our way home. I mean we're on the bus so I guess that we are on our way home, but not really..." It was at about this point that I stopped listening to her.
I just wanted to thank everyone that had to deal with me when I was that age and didn't decide to slap me or something, I am sure that I would have been quite annoyed with myself if I was this age and had to deal with me at that age. And THANK GOODNESS that I am past it now!

My House: The Log Cabin

I know, I know, I have been promising for awhile that I would post pictures of my new house/apartment, but today it was super sunny and beautiful (I wore shorts, no jacket w/short sleeve shirt and flip flops today by the way! :D) and so I decided to go and take the pictures and post them up for you, I am sure that there is something else that I should be doing but sometimes things like this are more enjoyable ;D

The cute front view of my house, I live in Log Up and there is also Log Down (underneath the window is their entrance). If you see that little window up on the top that window is in my 2nd storage room (will explain itself as you go through the rest of the pictures).

The entrance to my apartment--to the right you see the living room.

...and to the left/straight you see the stairs to my room and the kitchen.

We went right first, to the living room.

Sorry that it is kind of dark, I didn't think about closing the blinds and it was really sunny, smart huh?

Our little kitchen/table nook, it is beautiful when the blinds are all open and the sun streams through. The windows look out onto the basketball courts and behind them the rest of the Colony and also on our neighbors house.

Right beside the kitchen table is our washer and dryer, that's rights fokes I have a washer and dryer in my house and it's not coin-op! (For those of you who have not stayed at college housing, that is not normally the case..hence I feel very blessed to have it)

This is what you see if you continue going left/straight the entrance, this is the downstairs bathroom and the other two bedrooms where Summer, Becky, and Elizabeth sleep.

The entrance to our kitchen! Fridge on the right and then stove, plus storage cupboard on the right. And obviously dishwasher, sink, dishes cupboards straight ahead.

The rest of the kitchen, sink and counters now on the right, microwave and more cupboards on the left in the little alcove thingy and then Sarah's and my food storage straight ahead (it really is more organized than it looks)

The stairs up to my and Sarah's bedrooms.

Round the corner peeking into Sarah's room.

You can't really tell because it is really dark and the light streaming through the window, but this is a door and we call it our "suicide door," it opens out to nothing and it is on the 2nd floor. It gets really hot upstairs and so we sometimes open it just so we can have ventilation.

The door into my room!

I just barely re-did my room (I turned my bed out instead of along the other wall). I really like it the new way, this is what you see as you first walk into my room.

A closer up of my bed and what is beside it.

To the left as you walk down the little hallway.

The view of my desk from my bed.

My closet, it was feeling a little crowded so yesterday I put away some of the heavier jackets as it is starting to feel more and more like spring so I don't really need the heavy jackets!

Looking into my 2nd room, the storage room.

This picture is not very good, but that is my clothes drawer and then behind it is all of my boxes for when I move...I hope to slowly move into plastic tubs so that it will look a little nicer and more organized. As of right now because of all the boxes that don't brake down it looks really messy and full.

My bathroom, wow I really didn't take a very good picture of this, sorry!

My room as looking from the 2nd room.

The "side/back" view, we have a back door that comes out of the kitchen and then this parking for our cars.

The picture of the street from our parking area. (and our cute tree in the corner of our yard that I did not notice until like after I had lived here a month- sad I know)

The view that I have from my window beside my bed, isn't it beautiful?!

Twilight...


That's right, I finally went and saw it last night with my friend Leah at the dollar theater (even better though--it was Tuesday night and so it was only $.75 but then I only had two quarters so Leah paid for the third :D). I have never read the books even though people have been telling me for a long time that I should because they are something like I would normally read I guess.
Considering that I have never read the books I thought that it was well done- there were some parts though where the acting seemed to be stretched a little..I liked it and had a good time, and I laughed a bunch- it was particularly funny to Leah and I that behind us there were two guys watching and to the right of us there were two other guys watching it also (no girls with them). I would definitely recommend this as a movie to watch!
