little obsession

I came across some fantastic ideas for decorating earlier this evening. They're so beautiful and fun, I couldn't resist sharing them with you all. My hope is that one day, I'll have a home (or apartment) as beautiful as some of these pictures.
doesn't this bed look AMAZINGGG??

I love the wall art. and the light.

I turned on the tv this evening after a workout, and Pretty Woman and Indiana Jones: The Last Crusade were both on at the same time! Unbelievable right??? Unfortunately, it was like the last 15 minutes of Indiana Jones so I was sorta bummed about that. Oh yeah Bug's Life is on too. Which is my favorite Pixar movie. The caterpillar is my favorite. Tuck & Roll are pretty funny too. When I was little I used to make the rolly poleys roll up (whether they liked it or not!), and then I'd flick them. I'd never kill them, though I imagine it didn't feel very good to be flicked all the way across the sidewalk.

I found something else I want to do when I graduate. I want to make clothes. Not like... extravagant fancy things. Just sort of...revamping clothes I already have. Like this chick did with this shirt. I think that I could be good at it. Of course I'd have to start small. Just like the shirt. It seems pretty simple. But someday, maybe I could make something like this:

an over-sized shirt made into a romper! sooo cute!
 I may have to go to DI soon to check out the over-sized t-shirt selection so I can start practicing. Ha! I probably need a sewing machine though huh... Guess that's why I'm waiting till after I graduate to do all these things.

Speaking of graduation though, I just went over my graduation plan today and it's all set. I only need 4 more classes and I'm DONE! It's seriously so exciting! I have such a good feeling :) I only have to take 10 credits next semester. I'll probably take a joke class though since I technically have to be full-time and all. Which means I'll more than likely take a couple exercise classes or an art class. I'm leaning more towards the art class though. Or... maybe I'll take a sewing class! That would be tight. Right now, I'm taking fly fishing, canoeing, experiential education/adventure challenge, and persuasion. All are required. I wanted to take rock climbing, but it wouldn't fit into my schedule. Maybe when I move to Colorado I'll take a class.

Anyway, can't wait to graduate. :)

A&W root beer and adult swim

I'm in la bibiloteca right now with my friend Amanda. I'm not studying though. I'm drinking root beer. and playing online games. I have been growing weed as this little plant called "Hempy" for about an hour. AND I've been killing made zombies. It's ridiculous fun. (disclaimer: I don't actually grow weed in real life.)

Today has been fun. And interesting. I missed chemistry. Again. I know, I know. It's really bad. But I dunno why, it doesn't matter what time I go to bed at night, I seriously cannot get up that early. I've tried everything. Except sleeping on the floor. But I don't really think that would go over well because I would either just get into my real bed later that night, or wake up hurting really bad and not go to class anyway. I have set 3 alarms every night, and that still doesn't do it. I dunno. Maybe something's wrong with me.

Anyway, I woke up in just enough time to get to my Baseball Theory class. I had to go today because we had a test on defensive baseball. A lot of it I studied, but of course all the stuff I happened to forget to study, was on the test. I think I did okay though. We'll see. The thing is, I  LOVE baseball. It's my favorite sport. But there is so much to understand. Many of you might disagree, but after being in this class, I really admire those MLB players. That game is incredible.

After that was my Teachings Of the Living Prophets class. Which is always interesting because of three reasons:
1. My teachers rock.
2. There's this dufus kid that has all the extremist points of view. He's super annoying.
3. I learn a lot. (I didn't really a have a third reason, I just like doing lists in a minimum of 3's.)

Today we learned about the importance of family. I love my family a lot, and today really kinda made me excited to have a family of my own. But it also got my thinking about what kind of mom I will be. My mom is seriously the greatest lady I know. If I'm half the mom she is, then my children will be in good hands. That's my hope anyway. The more I think about parenting though, the more freaky and stressful it sounds though. Overall I'm sure it'll be fantastic.

I also found out from my Sports Med class that I have even hips. Prettyy neeattt...

Oh and like I mentioned the other night, today was lunch with Mark and Brittany. Which was SO FUN as always. We've only gone twice now, but it's seriously such a blast. I love hanging out with them. They keep telling me to watch Dexter. Who is this man here:

Maybe I'll start watching it...

young and reckless.

All of my blog posts are usually done when I should be doing something more important. In this case, I'm supposed to be studying for my baseball theory test and chemistry quiz that are BOTH tomorrow. However, I have somewhat given up on chemistry (yes. again.) and am now just in it to say that I finished the course. Hopefully that doesn't make me sound lazy and careless. I'm really doing my best in there. Because really, when I say I'm giving up, I'm just giving up on a good grade. Haha.

Anyway, I get to have lunch tomorrow with my wonderful friend, Mark Hargis, and his lovely fiance, Brittany Greenman. They have seriously become two of my favorite people, and I look forward to every other Tuesday now when I get to chill with them. By the way, Mark is a freakin fantastic photographer. This is his website--You should really check it out.

So lately, I've been feelin pretty burnt out. I blame school of course. Normally, I turn to my tumblr to break me out of that feeling, but lately that hasn't even done the trick. So, I started making a list of all the things I'm going to do when I graduate. Wanna hear some? Okay. Good. Cuz I was gonna share them with you anyway. (If you said no, this is where you would click the 'x' in the corner. And where I "unfriend" you on facebook. Really though, I would never do that. Just like you would never click the 'x'. Ha.)

ONE.
Learn to play the guitar. Like this fine fella. (I will never admit to liking Glee. Never.)

TWO.
Get better at piano. So I can play this sick song.

THREE.
Oh. And then I'm gonna learn to play the Ukulele. Like this kid.

That's it for now. I was gonna shoot for five, but it took to long to find appropriate videos for those three things. Maybe after I prepare some more, I'll tell you guys more. I gotta study some more. Here's one more video for kicks though. Something else I plan on learning.
