Swing, Swing, Swing

Today's Adventure: Swinging

The weather this afternoon was just right; not too hot and not too cold (Goldilocks herself couldn't ask for better weather). I'm so glad I have roommates who put up with my whims!

Tip Toe Through the Tulips

Today's Adventure: Tip Toeing Through the Tulips.

Inspired by the song.

All Day...

it rained


so we jumped

and I danced.

Battlecreek Boutique

So why would I write about something as seemingly trivial as a trip to a boutique you ask? Well because the amazing kid from this post moved very last minute and will no longer be attending the program. I didn't get to say goodbye. I am extremely distraught about it and browsing the boutique lifted my spirits to a small degree. That's why. Thanks for telling me about it, Kass! I had fun.


New sunglasses. I tend to lose or break sunglasses about as soon as I remove the price tag. Good thing they were inexpensive!


I love green. And I love shoes. Like Kassidy said, my shoe size is one of the very few constants I have in my life.

Don't Forget the Lyrics

Music- big fan of it. Here's a list of lyrics that I find creative, memorable, or funny:

What am I here for/ I left my home to disappear is all/ I'm here for myself/ Not to know you/ I don't need no one else/ Fit in so good the hope is that you cannot see me later/ You don't know me I am an introvert an excavator/ I'm duckin out for now/ a face in dodgy elevators/ Creep up and suddenly/ I've found myself / an innovator
-L.E.S. Artistes (by Santogold)

She likes me for me/ Not because I look like Tyson Bedford/ With the charm of Robert Redford/ Oozing out my ears

-Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me for Me) (by Blessid Union of Souls)

Sing with me/ Sing for the years/ Sing for the laughter/ Sing for the tears/ Sing with me if it's just for today/ Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

-Dream On (by Aerosmith)

Talk, talking a lot, but it's still talk/ Gotta love how it's somehow all on me/ All the pretty scenes/ And all the pretty things/ Say whatever you want/ 'Cause I can laugh it off

-Let It Happen (by Jimmy Eat World)

So let go, jump in/ Oh well, whatcha waiting for/ It's alright/ 'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown/ So let go, just get it/ Oh, it's so amazing here/ It's alright/ 'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

-Let Go (by Frou Frou)

Let me keep you in this place/ You'll be better off this way/ I will keep you warm and safe/ You'll be better off this way/ I will not raise you from this sleep/ Leave you wandering counting sheep/ No more sad and sunshine days/ Trust me dear you're better off this way/ You'll be selling books at the airport

-Airport Song (by Guster)

I'm bringing sexy back

-Sexy Back (by Justin Timberlake)

And if you were with me tonight/ I'd sing to you just one more time/ A song for a heart so big, God wouldn't let it live/ May angels lead you in/ Hear you me, my friends/ On sleepless roads the sleepless go/ May angels lead you in

-Hear You Me (by Jimmy Eat World)

Bones sinking like stones/ All that we've fought for/ Homes, places we've grown/ All of us are done for/ We live in a beautiful world/ Yeah, we do, yeah, we do

-Don't Panic (by Coldplay)

Let's dance in style let's dance for a while/ Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies/ Hoping for the best but expecting the worst/ Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

-Forever Young (by Youth Group)

Dear I thought I'd drop a line/ The weather cool, the folks are fine/ I'm in bed each night by nine/ P.S. I love you

-P.S. I Love You (by Heather Doiron)

When a problem comes along, you must whip it

-Whip It (by Devo)

I tried my best to leave/ This all on your machine/ But the persistent beat it sounded thin/ Upon listening/ And that frankly will not fly/ You will hear the shrillest highs/ And lowest lows with the windows down/ When this is guiding you home/ They will see us waving from such great heights, "Come down now", they'll say/ But everything looks perfect from far away/ "Come down now", but we'll stay...

-Such Great Heights (by The Postal Service)

Ok, that got longer than I intended, and there are HUNDREDS (literally) that I could write down. Thanks, all you wonderful musicians/lyricists out there! You make life even more lovely

Spring Break

So this is Easter, right? Nice weather, able to be outside in short sleeves.

This is 3 days later. Did it snow during my spring break? Why yes, in fact it did. Thanks a lot, Mama Nature. See if I plant a tree for you this Earth Day.

Despite the weather, it was a good time. I got to see this lovely girl, for example.

And maybe I really wanted to see the new Zac Efron movie. Maybe I made my little brother go with me. Maybe that was the same day it came out. Maybe. Don't judge me.

Spring in Provo

Fickle though it may be, spring in Provo is pretty

The lovely ladies in this photo and I went to Comedy Sports a couple weeks ago. Tickets on Thursdays are only $4! Totally worth it. I definitely laughed $4 worth.

FYI: Everything on Center Street either closes at 5:00 pm or opens at 8:00 pm. There's nothing to do around the 7:00 hour. Learned that the hard way.
