Today i woke up feeling quite spring-y! i needed something to wear that matched my attitude and it came down to a cami a capsleeve and a cardigan. it was so nice outside today! the wind was just about right all day with the sun shining down on our faces.

and then there were four..






Suddenly, i look at the date and realize "ITS BEEN TWO DAYS SINCE I POSTED ON MY BLOG LAST. i really need to fix that."
the next breezes by and i wonder t myself how could i possibly have time for a little bore in my life?
that night comes along and once again i realize that i have failed to blog..again.
now...for the sake of boring you my fellow readers, this happened until this very night when i fianlly said nothing will stop me from posting.

What should have stopped me, you may ask?
*the need to finish a novel  by tomorrow..
*the need to wake up at 4:45 tomorrow..
*the need to clean the clothes on my floor.....tomorrow..

Man oh man.

Mixed up - I SLEPT IN UNTIL 11AM TODAY!! what?! that has never happened..ever!!
the (almost) whole of the young womens presidency got released today. i think they have been there for almost three years..
i was at church today for 7 1/2 hours today... loooong day.

Matched up - we (Madi Rachel and I) planned our Spring Break Trip to Utah and BYU!! We cant seem to stop being excited about going there next semester! itll be fantastic!
we also learned that we have three options when it comes to marriage
a) love on first day of class
b) date for yeeeeeears!
c) last resort

of course the men who gave us our options probably dont realize that their wives were madly i love when they said "I do" and that was all that matters..

The Ugly Bug Ball



Undershirt: Modbe
Shirt: Target? i honestly don't remember
Jeans: def Kohls! they are stretchy and wonderful!
Shoes: Mothers American Eagle aka Payless
Neckace: Gifted
**notice my hair up in some and down in others. looked good when i took it down because i used a clip rather than a hairtie** 

So, i am similiar to Katri today in that i am not a total
fan of my pictures today. I def had fun manipulting them, except for i didn't do anything but make them brighter.
So my thoughts on these photos have led me to the song "The Ugly Bug Ball"
Pleeeeease tell me yove heard it before! Anyone??



I have one great thing for todays Terrific Tuesday but i dont wanna share it because i dont have pictures...i am going to get them tomorrow!
well ohwell.
Today i shared a song i created for the fourth grade class i work with. I re-wrote it to a Justin Beiber song - baby. they instantly loved it! Even the manly boys were singing along and dancin'!
Mrs. G got the Principal and VP and all the office people and they prformed the song for them. They want to make up a dance routine for it and go all out. Today was the first day they heard the song so tomorrow they might actually have something!



press play then try to sing along.
i promise it does all work
just practice!

Write It!

You need at least five,


Good sentences.


And you could always add a, add a metaphor.






Start with an action,


Somethin’ cool.

Begin with dialogue (what someones sayin’)


My first real intro led to the main event


And I was like

An exclamation!

And now I’m letting


You read my story


Buy my story


Now here’s description


Thoughts and feelings


I’m leading to the conclusion of adventure.


Here’s the end end end end


And I just can’t believe, I’m almost done with this tale.


And I was like



Write it write it write, OH!

Now the conclusion


So I decided on somethin’ not known before


Hit up a memory..

pour a little sumthin







Crinkled Undershirt - Kohls
Top - Kohls
Belt - Mothers
Capris - Target
NO SHOES! (:
**notice i can finally tie my hair back all the way!**

Whats the point in a school holiday if i work all day? Maybe they just hate me..yeah. sounds about right. But i guess it wasnt all that bad. I mean, yes we had an inspector there all day! He had to stand over our shoulders to ensure that we did everything we were supposed to do PLUS extra. It was extremely pointless. To me and everyone else there.
Getting home to a shower and Taylor Swift def made the day the best!
It's Monday...which means its time to set goals for the week.
Liiiike...
exercise? YES!
clean bathroom? CHECK
clean sheets? CHECK
cat food and box? CHECK

maybe im ahead of myself or something because my list is done!

the title of todays post comes from the song "who are you when im not lookin"
happy birthday Sydneys sissy!
congrats to Kailee! in being a watched person at BYU! That is so fantastic!!!

Mixed up: that inspector guy! you may have been nice but you were most def not welcome.

Matched up: umm....good question! someone text me and that will be what matched up today!
See ya!

Raise Your Voice








What's with Sundays? I mean, all we ever do is sit around and chill! Nothing ever gets done when your with your family on a Suday afternoon. Want poof? Well, then just look up! Those photos are just a few of what really went down. Apparently, dad and brothers are too shy tostep into them Who woulda thunk it?!
At least we spent time together as a family, right? That's the important thing.
So, ive been looking around at all the many blogs around cyberspace and here are a few i thought yall should check out:

The Daybook   (i mean, duhh! she is amazing!)

Cardigans and Cookie Dough

A day in the life too..

An Outfit A Day...Keeps The Fashion Police Away

and my two besties...

Madi    (needs a name so suggest some for her pleeeeease!)

it's complicated


Also...i learned some fascinating stuff about myself today. Well, stuff that every girl NEEDS to know.
1. Believe in yourself
2. Believe that you are a daughter of God
3. Believe in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ

The inspiration of the title of todays blog happens to be th title of one great movie: "Raise Your Voice" it has Hilary Duff in it and that amazing british guy who is also in "What a Girl Wants" with Amanda Bynes. Two of the greatest actresses on this planet in my opinion. Disagree? Let me know in the comments!

Mixed up: NO NAP! and its Sunday! Church Choir (which i am a part of) messed up really bad today when we sang "Did you Think to Pray" I kinda discovered when BYU should be telling us who got in or not...now i await the day... impatiently

Matched up: family laughed through a hard time today...being hit extremely hard on the head by macho-strength brother. All the windows are open!! The Ward had an awesome day, it being Ward Conference, we all mingled forever after Church and laughed and played around. An awesome friend and former Elder returned today! He was in Russia and we are sooo proud of him!

Blog date and pre-Teens..(:

So how do you like the new look? You like it?! Me too! It only took a couple of my friends and i six hours to figure everythig out! But as you can see, it turned out well. Check out Madi and Katies! They all turned out pretty cute! (just so no one gets confused or anything, mu keyboard is messing up hrd core and skipping leters i type. so if something is spelled wrong, that is why. i ampratically pounding on the keys to ge them to work!)
Though all the blogs turned out waaaay cuuuute, we didnt exactly get the memo...
They always make fun of how i never match when it comes to clothes. So they decided to match me last night - hence my long socks that match nothing i am wearing, Katie wearing my too-small-for-her shoes with socks (so comfortable!) and Madis boots with capris.......i approve.



Now we have the 12 year old girlies who just loove having a driver as cool as me!








Mixed up - our crazy outfits and staying out 'til 11:00pm when i work the next moning at 6.
Matched up - the Purpleberri icecream! with ofcourse the cutest girlies ever!

Sounds about right.

Sunday is the start of a whole new week. Or at least its meant to be. Sometimes i feel like its the end of the week or month..in meaning, everything just seems to shut down and stop. Then Monday morning rolls around and thats when life starts again. But i guess thats just how its suppose to happen. Suppose to confuse and make you tired.
Today, after yesterdays shpeel of not-gonna-get-me-down, my parents insisted that i go home and rest. Gee thanks for helping along my plans guys!
Just kidding. Its really a good thing i went home. I totally passed out! Just like that i was out. Next thing i knnow its dark outside and my parents are getting the kiddos ready for bed. Guess thats what a lot of medicine does to a person.
So in order to keep some remembrance of my "childhood" "teen years" or whereever the answers may lay on my timeline, here's the question:
Do you like ballets or musicals or operas? If so, which one and why.
I LOOOOOOOVE musicals.
they complete my life for some odd reason. I can sit and analyze and critisize the whole time then walk out and feel as if i could die right there and be whole. Maybe thats a little dramatic and overtone but i really appreciate what those dancers and singers and performers do up there on stage. Not only do they love what tey do, but they do it and its perfect and beautiful!
I was onstage once, a looong long time ago, but when i was up there, it was as if i was that character and nobody was going to stop me from being the best of that character that i could be.
the lights and the cheering and the flashing all made that moment in time seem more sureal than the time i got my license.
kitty got in a catfight...PEACE[:

To Be Sick or Not To Be Sick

Hey guys! Its only been a month or so since i last posted. Any guesses why? Any?? Yes! Dingdingding! We have a winner! I almost died! And not even the "haha im kidding" kind dying but the for real on my death bed im dying kind of dying.
It has been three days since i last saw the sunlight on my face with no window perforating it . It has been three days of me lying on bed and couch coughing with swollen eyes and other awful things not in need of mentioning. I am so sick (pun totally intended) of doing nothing all day long, my neck stretched in such a way that i believe it will never be straight again.
 So, after three days and a Saturday when i called in to work sick, i have officially decided to not be sick. I refuse to come to the realization that i am really really sick, sick enough to skip school for the next week - again. This so called sickness is not going to get me down anymore! Im done!
So here i am, starting my "new" life, unsick and completely healthy.

Also, im not going to try catch up on Picture of the Day stuff...so ill take it two days at a time..sorta.

My kitty - Scout! She is such a handful! And absolutely amazing! She gets into everything, plays with whaever she feels is hers (which is everything), and she eats everything! Including the dog food. The vet says thats what makes her fur as soft as it is. She is 9 months old and probably the fattest 9 month old kitty you have ever seen! But i love her!

Kaitlyn Ditch's 18th birthday party! We started the night
by jaming out to THE best music ever!
Then icecream at the best icecream place in town -
Sheridans.
Then we took her to her SURPRISE PARTY!
However, it was an epic fail.
She was surprised we held a party for her but we didnt jump
out at her and say surprise!
FAIL.
but we had so much fun otherwise.
(:

So as the night is ending, i just wanna say that Hallmark mooooovies are the greatest! The Valentines Date, Accidently in Love...some of the greatest that have been on tonight.
Goodnight.
