crazy life, cool art

One week before my summer is officially over and I return to school. This wouldn't be sooo bad except for the fact that this is the semester where I take the dreaded math class. Not just math, but Stats. I am HORRIBLE with word problems, which is basically ALL what stats is. I will need as much luck as I can this semester. I'm excited in a way though with all the new this semester. New apartment, new routine, new hair (Eleasha and I colored it last week and its now a dark purply-red. We were going for more red, and hopefully thats what it will turn to, but as of now its still a little more purply), new roommates (though I will really miss my fun Chinese roommates and the endless chinese food *sigh*), a new internship. All kinds of exciting newness, but new means leaving behind the old which I really liked too. Such is life I guess. It will also be sad to leave Eleasha's place.
Eleasha and I had a fun girls night out last night. It was so fun! We went to dinner and went to see House Bunny (which is really funny) and had a lot of time to talk. Its so fun when sisters all get up to that certain age where you can relate to each other despite the age difference and really realize how alike you are. I love that my sisters are my friends. I feel so lucky!
So theres this artist who goes around doing sidewalk art and he is AMAZING!!! You all should go and see it. The web site that has some of his stuff is: http://users.skynet.be/J.Beever/pave.htm
Its really amazing! I wish I had a cool talent like that! Anywho, I'm excited, nervous, apprehensive, worried, and curious at the same time for this coming semester. I just hope the weather stays warm for a long time since we haven't had much of a real summer. I say the weather at least owes it to us to stay mildly warm for a longer period of time since it didn't get very hot this summer for long.
Life is funny.

Back to Pullman

So for the past week or so I have been back to Pullman visiting. It has been an adventure... some days. Most of the time I've felt the extreme of lazy, but I did get to go to the bank and visit a few of my old co-workers earlier today at Wamizzle (aka Washington Mutual). Since this IS a college town, the turnover rate at the bank is soooo high. Through the two years I worked there, 11 people left and about 8 or 9 of those where people who had come after I had started working there. So when I went back I only knew three people there from before, but they were happy to see me so it was fun! I also went out to ice cream with Tekara and my friend Kate's mom who is like my second mom. While I was living here, I spent half of my time at Kate's house and her parents pretty much adopted me. It was because of her mom that I finished my personal progress. Her sisters are like my sisters and her dad was the one to fix up my car and stuff for me. I love them so much! My second family. :D. So we talked and had ice cream and it was fun. I go back to Eleashas to stay for the remainder of my break on Wednesday and I saw goodbye to Pullman once again for a long time. Probably wont be back again till next summer. Its been fun seeing a few of the people I love here. Its always kind of sad when you leave somewhere to think of the people you have to leave behind, but I guess such is life, huh? So thats life right now. Nothing toooo terribly exciting.

Good sisterly times

So Tekara, Eleasha and I went shopping today and had a little too much fun with hats and glasses and these are the results of it. All in all a good time. More pictures of our fun day to follow. lol.

Fun Memories

here is another tag.. I think this one will be the most fun for me... This is a tag for everyone who reads this.. Have fun!


1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember.


2. Next, re-post these instructions on you blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assumer you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments. I can't wait to see what people remember about me!

Day of Dancing!

So I realize its been a while since I've updated, but really, theres not a whole lot to tell. Its been a lot of homework, school, sleep and just a few other things scattered between. One more week of school left and its getting kind of intense. Luckily I only have two finals left and one is a take home. The only problem with the take home is that it will probably end up being six pages again....not double spaced. I guess thats what I get for wanting to go to college. :) And I'm tryin to learn the last chapter of Español which is proving to be muy deficil porque tenemos solo tres días a aprender todo de la capitulo! (we only had 3 days to learn all of the chapter). Usually we have a week and a half... but since our semesters are so short, they had to cram the last chapter in 3 days before the final! So thats alllll kinds of fun! Its a good thing for me that I have a spanish speaking novio to help me.
So about the title. I was in a beginning social dance class this semester and today we had our final event thing. Two actually. The first was a dance competition where you could choose to do either waltz or cha cha. I did the cha cha and out of maybe 100 couples, my partner and I got 4th place!!!! I was surprised. I knew we were pretty good but I didn't expect to get past the second round. So imagine my surprise when we get to the top 8! Then I don't work well under pressure so I messed up a step. After that, I thought for sure we'd only get 8th, but we got 4th!!!! I still delightfully surprised! Then I came home and did homework for a while and went back to another dance thing where we had groups that we had to perform in. I did the waltz and then stayed there to dance a while. Its been a fun semester of dancing and I really hope to have another dance class next semester.
Also, it looks like I'm going to have an internship this fall and also looks like I'll be going back to Jackson this next winter. Yay! lol.
Um... I think thats about the extent of the excitement in my life. Soon enough I shall be back home and staying with Eleasha and Brad for seven weeks. Yay for me! maybe not for them... lol. We shall see. Hopefully they wont hate me by the time I leave.

Soooo funny

My spanish teacher showed this to me today and i laughed so hard i cried so i thought i'd share it with everyone else who reads this.

Growing

So I figure its been a while since I updated so I might as well do it. I feel pretty good today. Besides being slightly tired cause I went to the temple today earlyish this morning (early being 8:30 hahaha) It was nice though. I'm really happy I went this morning. I feel really good I think because this semester my testimony has grown even more and I really understand things that I never really fully got before. I thought I understood them before but now I see them more clearly. Things parents and church leaders say to you over and over that as a kid you think they don't see it as clearly as you do... or you think that theres exceptions all over that they are overlooking... but the things that I learned are things that are so incredibly simple and we are told every single day. I know this is vague and I guess I mean it to be that way because I've learned so much that its hard to put a finger on just one thing. I think the thing I've most learned this semester is how incredibly important humility is. To me, its up next to charity. It seems like pretty much everything hangs on those two things. Success and happiness depend on those. Its been a really good time to grow for me and I love it. Its been hard at times this semester, but I've grown so much.
Anywho, I found this video on youtube and thought it was cool so Im putting it on here:
