Storytime

Have I mentioned that the BYU library loves me!? Case in point:

Last year I had a late fee at the library. It wasn’t much it was only a couple of dollars, but it wasn’t too bad. I went to the library to go check out a book and the guy at the desk told me that I couldn’t get a book because I had a fine, but since it was the first time I had been given a fine he could clear it for me and I could check the book out. I thought that that was cool and I was glad that I hadn’t had to pay my fine.

This year I had a project for my children’s lit class. This project was so much fun and I had a great time doing it. For the project I needed to choose and author, I picked Roald Dahl, and then I had to give a presentation concerning the author and his books. Great project right!? It really was so much fun but every time I went to the library I checked out more books. Little did I know the children’s books at the library cannot be renewed. I thought that I had renewed all of the books that I had and that they were due the day of my presentation. Well the day of my presentation I went to the library with a duffle bag (I really did have many) full of books to return them. While I was checking them in I realized that most of the books in my bag were due a while ago and that I probably had fines on them. The BYU library charges a dollar for every day a book is late. So I had at least a ten dollar fine. Of course I didn’t want to pay it until I had to so I avoided paying it for a while. A few weeks later my roommate and I were going to do a movie night so we went to check out some movies. In order to check out the movies I had to pay my library fine so I went to the front desk. When I got there I mentioned to the lady at the front desk that I had a fine that I needed to pay so that I could check out some movies. The lady took my card and pulled up my account. She then said, “Well you haven’t had a fine for a while so I can just clear it for you” Isn’t that so amazing! So now, going into finals I just have to remember that at least the Library loves me…

Best thing ever!

I'll admit we (At grandma's) watched this a few times on Sunday...

Welcome Back!

Welcome back SUN I have missed you! In celebration of this beautiful day I had an ice cream cone... Good thing I bought ice cream and cones on our shopping trip to Winco last week!

Yay for weekends!!!!

So today is my brothers birthday and he called me a few days ago to talk and mentioned that I hadn't updated my blog for a long time and that I should do it so this is for Josh... ;)
This week is so exciting for many reasons… I had Lu’au on Tuesday and Wednesday and it was aMaZinG!!! I performed in the Tahiti and Samoa sections. I think that Tahiti was my favorite just because it was so much fun to do. Tuesday was great but busy because I wanted to get all of my stuff done before Wednesday so that I could spend some time with my mother while she was in town. So Wednesday I went to classes and then went out to dinner with my mom, grandparents, Dick, Joan, Mindy, and Rachel. After dinner we headed to the WILK so that they could wait in Line and I could go get dressed!!! It was such a blast here are some of the pictures…

This girl is so gorgeous I love her!

Can't go without a jumping picture!!

This morning I rode my bike to school, now remember I have work at 4:30 so I don’t really know what the day is going to be like when I leave in the morning so I had no way of knowing that it was going to snow!!! Utah weather! It’s not that it’s horrible but it is quite predictable about being unpredictable… So I had my bike at school and by the time I was ready to go home it looked like this.

Now? My roommate and I are having a movie marathon with some amazing movies…

Sometimes we make simple things more complicated then they need to be...

You know what I hate (Okay maybe hate is to strong of a word, but really dislike)? The fact that there is no casual way to greet someone after the morning except for saying hey, hello, etc. I would rather say something else. When I see someone in the morning I can say "good morning" and be content. After morning I could say "good afternoon" or "good evening" but both options seem to formal for just a greeting in passing... It kind of drives me crazy! Anyone have any great hello phrases???


Aaaaannnnnd...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my lovely parents!!!! (Mom today and Dad next Wednesday)
I love you both! :)

Did he kill them while they were alive!?

I really need to learn how to be less competitive I think it would be best for everyone!

By the way I am now, temporarily, a redhead, and my roomie thinks it should be permanent. I know that the pictures aren't that great of a comparison but they are what I had...


Right now I'm reading the Anne of Green Gables series... Isn't it funny how she thinks that the only romantic ending to a story is not the couple getting married but dying??? Kind of funny to think of the strange ideas we have...

Oh and extra credit who can tell me what an octogenarian is without looking it up??? ;)
