Christmas!

Today I went to...count them...FOUR sacrament meetings. holy hannah. It was to support various friends who were singing/performing/whatever for their Christmas programs. Can I just say that I now have a whole new understanding and appreciation for what our bishopbrics and stake presidencies do every week? crazy.

However, they were all AMAZING and had beautiful music and testimonies. I love Christmas!

PS the realist in me can't contain it...I have to admit I did fall asleep the second half of the last meeting I went to. I don't know how people sit through that many meetings on Sundays. Insane. Plus the Christmas music didn't help. Totally lulled me to sleep.

Count Down

18 more days of 2009.

I've made it my goal to end this year on a wonderfully happy note, and ring in the new year on the same. Today: Sleeping In, Ice Climbing, YoZone, Swimming, Harold & Maude, and The Quarry. Bring it on. pfff who said finals were a drag? 17 more days of amazingness.

Oh Dear

Dear Sanity,
I'd love to keep you. Just for another week. Then you're free to leave for a few.

Dear Family,
I can't wait for Christmas.

Dear Forearms,
Why on earth are you still sore? lame overhangs. psh.

Dear Snow,
You're so lovely, please keep up the good work. Especially post finals.

Dear Semester,
Do your worst. Two more days plus four finals, then good riddance!

Dear Life,
I love your silver linings.

The HBLL Christmas Musical

If the library could sing a song right now this would be it...

It's the most serious tiiiiiiiiime of the year
There'll be procrastination
and anticipation, with the end oh so neeeeaaaaaar!!!!
It's the most serious tiiiiiiime of the yeeeeeaaaaar!!!!

Oh I amuse myself too much, I'm sure. What else can you do while being holed up in the library attempting to write a dreadfully long and boring paper? I can't help but laugh to myself when I picture everyone in the library singing this. paha.

If You Can't Find Me...

...it's a good chance I'm:

a) in the AdLab
b) engrossed in a non-academic book in Barnes & Nobles
c) climbing at the Quarry now that it's fah-reezing outside.
d) eating. usually YoZone or freshly baked tortillas.
e) watching Planet Earth
...or...
f) all of the above with Kris. minus a.

Kris darling I love our entourage. I especially enjoy our infinite amount of hours spent together at The Quarry. like tonight. I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday night than at The Quarry with the crew. love. love. love.

Africa

PS can I tell you how in love with this song I am? Meaning the song that should be playing right now from my page...Africa by Karl Wolf. Perfection. Is it wrong for me to admit that I've been listening to it every fifteen minutes today?

Idea Killer

Pulled this from Kingdom Of Style, which I love.

San Francisco based artist, Scott Campbell, has created perhaps the most accurate illustrations to sum up how a creative idea can be crushed in seven ways.

I can't even begin to describe how comical I find this because of how true it is. bahaha.
