dating...

CAUTION: BOYS, DON'T READ.. Seriously

I decided to take some time and post about the dreaded topic for girls 18+ in the Mormon college world.

Yes, I excluded it to only Mormon's because at BYU-I dating is a whole different spectrum.

(Note, this is just from my personal experience, data may vary depending on looks and charm)

First tip to upcoming freshman females-

At your first I-Night dance, you will most likely get asked for your number by more than one guy. 

One or more may be attractive and seem clever and charming.

DON'T LET FIRST IMPRESSIONS FOOL YOU!

The male species think they're awesome.

Little do they know.. we actually control most of what they do.

We also give them the ideas they have without them even knowing

this can be a great thing!

Next comes the classic Look, Hold, Turn Away.

Works like a charm.

look them right in the eyes, give it 3 seconds to show interest and not just passing gaze,

then LOOK AWAY!

Don't forget the look away step, you don't want awkward High School Musical flashbacks.

(If it works, the guy will be by your side in a few minutes, depending on courage)

If you know of a guy that is pleasing to the eye and you want to get a closer look,

here is a great way to be able to get to know them, without them knowing your intent.

First step:

Find where they live. (Sounds creepy, but it's key and will be great in the end)

Second, you go over (with or without a buddy), and you ask if they have any eggs.

If yes, ask to use them, and in return you tell them you'll give them some of the brownies you make.

If all goes as planned, you bring the brownies over later that night and they invite you in.

If they don't have eggs, make friendly conversation... and still give them the option of having brownies when you "find" some eggs. (Have backup material to make brownies in this case).

This is proven to work. My sister Kate told me about this one and I have knowledge through experience that it works a charm and so does she:)

Boys aren't very smart when it comes to us females.

We can manipulate them like nobody's beeswax and they will still take credit for the ideas.

If you do the look, hold, turn away,

they think it's their idea and it makes you seem "hard to get"

They also want things they can't have.

So don't be easy..

Easy girls are gross, and usually boys aren't interested after the first meet.

There you have it folks.. A little bit of advice from the girl who wears a fake engagement ring to work so I don't get the creepers anymore. I may be a little confident. But BOYS LIKE CONFIDENCE.

and they also like DECISION MAKING DECISIVENESS 

There might be more later, but i'm kinda tired, and I feel like I need a snack.

But I shouldn't eat anymore tonight..

So i'm going to go brush my teeth and pop my retainer in so I don't eat anything else.

Wow, that was super long and a whole lot of words. so here is some eye candy:

Oh how I miss Big Jud's and Fry Sauce

WORD

This morning when I woke up later than I was scheduled to, I yelled in my head "holy crap!" Where did that phrase come from? If you think about it, it is super weird to say holy poop all the time. There is no such thing! So why do we all say it? Why do we talk about poop so much? Humans are weird.

So is my art class.

I do believe that some clouds are better than others. Washington seems to hog all the good ones though. They are so light and fluffy!

I need to paint. I am taking an online art class right now (sounds silly I know) but I have to paint and then scan everything and post them in a discussion board. Scanning makes all my work look like crap, no matter what, the color gets messed up and I am too much of a perfectionist!
Other than that, I am enjoying this class. I really do love to paint (minus faces) and I am learning a lot from the book and tests.

I better go do it now while I still have my background music of my niece singing "Mother tell me a story.." because it's Mothers Day!

I love my mom. That is all there is to it.

Mom Week

While my mama was here, we went up to Canada to an indoor waterpark/ wavepool.

Waterproof Camera. CHECK!

 New mix up swim suit. flower top, stripe bottoms... CHECK!

 Fun kids.. CHECK!

 Adorable little nephew.. CHECK!

 Picture of Syd's toes.. CHECK!

 Successful underwater picture (Not of me).. CHECK!

Successful butt shot (Unfortunately of me).. CHECK!

We had fun.

We laughed.

We went down the waterslides.

The water was warm.

&& We made it back into the States!

Just a Kiss

New favorite song. Yepp it's official. Lady A never lets me down. I will begin counting down the days until their new album comes out.



Seriously, the lyrics in this song are to die for. I love these lines:


I know that if we give this a little time
it will only bring us closer to the love we wanna find
it’s never felt so real, no it’s never felt so right
..story of my life..

On June 7th they are performing at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. Going there has ALWAYS been my dream, but seeing LADY ANTEBELLUM.. cherry on top right there!

My mommy is on her way right now to come visit me, and when she gets here, we will sit and listen to this new song and gab about how much we love them.

hmm maybe I should get dressed for the day

I wish I had all the answers

I absolutely love to rock climb. 

I absolutely love to take pictures. 

Rock Climbing pictures are NASTY

and the angle is always horrible because of the task

but here is some proof I actually DO climb

and the fact that my cousin loves taking close ups on my rear end.
