Oh the fun fun fun.

I cleaned my room today.











And I also washed the kitchen floor.








Thought you visitors should know.

Thanks,

Thundering Tumult

At first I thought it was an insane thunderstorm.

Then I saw my family running outside and wondered, "Why is my family running out into the middle of a storm?"

Then I heard it again.

Pretty awesome, I'd say.

The weather then decided to mimic the planes, as seen by these intense cloud formations.

Happy rain:)

If you haven't already, take a look outside at the mountains. They are so GREEN! This picture doesn't even do them justice, but I didn't take it so don't blame me...

Drop a penny in a pond

All the places I wish I could be at right now...

What we've learned in college:

Yup. Be impressed.


But really

1. Living 5 minutes away from class rather than 20 minutes does not make it any easier to be on time.
2. Sometimes it's worth actually cooking instead of eating tons of 69 cent frozen pizzas.
3. I liked it better when my mom did my laundry.
4. Some of the coolest people you meet are the ones you look at on the first day of class and say,"Wow, did I walk onto the set of the Worst Music Video EVER."
5. People will stare whether or not you look like a freak.
6. It's okay to not shower, you'll fit right in.
7. There are some rank smelling people in the BYU testing center. And sometimes they sit by you.
8. ALWAYS sign out of Facebook.
9. If you're more than 15 minutes late to class, just don't go.
10. Don't be 15 minutes late to class.
11. Bringing your laptop to the library is deadly, thanks to Facebook.
12. The ratio of how late you stay up at night and how late you sleep in usually equals - no class.
13. Some guys are so desperate for a date that they will pose as someone giving a survey that asks for your number and then ask if they can call you sometime.
14. Other guys are so desperate that they'll follow you all the way across campus, never having met you, and ask you and your roommate for your numbers.
15. When you see someone poking through a garbage can on campus at 8:00 in the morning, offer them your granola bar. It's not that embarrassing when they say they're just collecting coke cans.
16. If you get a bad grade on a test, look at it with an eternal perspective.

Seriously

Dear guy in my english class,

If you are indeed a guy and not a little boy, why did you wear your 12-year-old brother's pants to class today? Was it dark when you got dressed? Did your mom mix up your laundry? Or did you get lost in the kids section of the department store? When I look up from my book expecting to see the teacher and instead, get a full front seat view of your backside covered only by thin material (briefs? boxers?) as you get up and walk away, I wish I had my little brother's airsoft gun to teach you a lesson. As I watch your futile attempts to pull up your non-pants, I notice you have a belt also. Did you miss the lesson in kindergarten where they taught everyone that belts are supposed to go around your waste, not your upper thighs? To my surprise, you're able to pull your pants up a full two inches...and then you take a couple steps and they fall four. Oooh, come on. Didn't need to see that. At least your underwear is baby blue. Do us all a favor and wear PANTS to class next time. We analyze literature, not anatomy.

Thanks,
Rose

I know I should protect the world from myself when

I hear hysterical laughter and realize it's my own.

I get up every five minutes to look for...wait, what...?

Someone says my name and a low grumbling growl escapes my mouth.

I wish I went to BYU so I could be done with school by now.

I wonder what it'd be like to live in a van and drive from city to city, singing the Beatles and not washing my hair.

I start quoting the quirky sayings of my professors, i.e. "Good on ya!"

I wonder why I'm depriving the world of my innate jump roping talents.

I think it's Wednesday all day and then I find out it's Thursday (good thing).

I can't remember what I was saying to Caroline 60 seconds ago...neither can she.

I am as tall as Andrei Kirilenko's legs.

The computer screen starts changing colors.

I don't think anything is funny anymore.

This isn't funny anymore.
