decisions. decisions. decisions.

yes there are many big decisions to make in life. for example: where the heck do i want to live next year? what internships do i apply to? what am i supposed to do this summer while killing time as a graduated growed-up person waiting to (hopefully) start and internship?

but the biggest question plaguing my mind today...

"what shoes do i wear?...the pink, white, and mostly gray tennis shoes OR the pink, gray, and mostly white tennis shoes?"

yes. big decisions people, big decisions. 
(oh ali...love you! thank you for being awesome and making me laugh...every day)

also. if you want to contribute to my italy fund (one of the things i plan to do while killing time this summer). feel free to donate. i'm at about 26 cents as of right now. going strong.

creepin.

sometimes my sister and i like to sit on campus and just observe the awkwardness that is byu.

these are some of our recent amusements:

"...and i'm like, i love cheez-it's! and so my mom promised me like a month ago that we'd get cheez-it's so we've gotten cheez-it's like every day."

"...and wonderbars! everyone loves a wonderbar."

"...and then we can get ice cream together! and go sledding! do you want to go sledding together?!?"

gotta love this place.  what can i say we just love being creepers...there are just so many interesting people to creep on.

i do in fact need a hero.

it's possible that i've been listening to this song on repeat. for 3+ days. i'm kind of in love with it.
what can i say?...i can relate.

i just love it.

so i have this love for baking.

my secret not-so-secret dream: own my very own precious bakery one day.

i don't have much time...or money for it but every time i get a chance i like to see what creations i can come up with.  goal for this year...bake more, and take a fondant class. my sister bought me some great little cake decorating gadgets for christmas so let the baking begin!

as of late.

life has been a little crazy busy as of late. here is just a little recap.

baby shower for four of the eight girls who are currently with child in our lovely little dietetics program.  here are four of the beautiful mothers-to-be... [victoria, amy, dani, andrea]

it was a grand ol' time for everyone involved.

the roomies and i decided to make a shrine on our wall for all our wonderful friends who have entered into matrimony recently (basically any invitation we've received in the last year). don't even worry only four of those invitations are not mine. yeah.

studied, studied, studied for finals. calculated my grades to see just how poorly i could do on each of my finals and still get decent grades...then watched a lot of gilmore girls.

pre-finals face...

post-finals face...

un-pictured...much happier.

precious christmas party with the roommates. only took one picture of our four chritmas trees but we had a fun little gift exchange and went to dinner as a finals-are-over celebration/last hurrah before the break.

so so happy to be home with the fam for christmas. i may never go back to provo [i wish].

rise and shout...?

i got an all-sports pass this year. first time ever.  i must admit i'm a fair weather fan (and secretly cheer for the u when we play them-be proud dad) but it's been fun to go to the games and show some school spirit. mick even came to one of the games with me...

in other news. i registered for classes for the last. time. ever. yes, i'm officially gradating in april. no more saturday's spent doing this...

 although you must admit, it is legit. (rhyming intentional) 

i'll be the first to admit (apparently i like that word. a lot.) that i've spent a good amount of time wishing to leave provo...and byu. i just feel it's time to move on.  and though i won't miss homework, or the freezing hike up to campus in the winter, or the stress i feel every time i enter the testing center... i did have a little moment walking up to campus the other day when i realized "wow, i'm really lucky to be able to go to school in such a beautiful place."  i really am so blessed to be able to attend byu.  it's a great school and i've learned a lot. both about myself and dietetics (sometimes more than i'd even care to know actually).  i may just miss this place after all. at least a little.

one year older and wiser too.

my grandma turned the big 9-0.  yes, the dear woman is NINETY.  i can't believe it. while she may not know what day it is or even that she's at her own birthday party, she is still the sweetest lady in the world and i love her to pieces. just a few photo's of the big b-day bash.

...notice the creepy little boy's head sticking out out of the top of g-ma's. awkward...

could she be any more precious? i mean really...

looks good eh? food poisoning...pretty sure that happened

 
ended the weekend with a little visit to this place.

was it just me or was conference exceptionally good this time around? okay, it's always great. but something about this time. i just loved it. the church is true! that's all there is to it.


well hope your weekend was as good as mine.
