Snow

I'm sitting in my living room with one of my guy friends - I made him give me his laptop so I could entertain myself while he called his girlfriend - watching the snow blow by in the wind. Makes me kind of sad. I was enjoying the sun for the past week or so. Even if it was still chilly, the soaking up some vitamin d via the sun made me happy. I'm definitely a sunshine kind of girl.

Now the lawn has a blanket of snow covering it.

No mas! No mas! I guess saying I would be happy if it didn't snow for the rest of the winter was foolish of me. Of course it'd snow. Its Utah! Have I learned nothing in the five and half years that I've lived here? I am soooo glad that this is my next to last winter in Utah. That's right people. I'm moving to Hawaii next year with my sister and hopefully one of my friends from back home. My dreams as of late have been of sandy beaches and water so clear that it looks like glass.

Man...I can't wait!

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]

Sleepiness becomes me

*sigh* I miss the ocean. Not really the Atlantic Ocean, although I have to say that the East Coast has some beautiful beaches. But the Pacific Ocean will always be home to me. I miss it. I miss the hot sand, the coconut scented sunscreen and tanning oil, the salty sea air, the random volleyball games, the hot surfer boys. I miss it all. Its my favorite place where you can watch the sunset while looking out over the water. Its amazing! Sure, it gets hot, but really? When you're there at the beach looking at the water, taking it all in, it doesn't really matter how hot it is. I've always loved the water. It has a calming effect over me like lavender oil in a steamy bath. I wish I could just be a beach bum for the rest of my life. I'd take photos and sell them to support my needs. Kind of like what Thoreau did at Walden Pond. I really only need the simple things in life and the beach and ocean. I could get along without my phone and definitely without my alarm clock. Just ...

Hooray for Holi!

My friend Kim and I will be going to celebrate Holi with our fellow Hindus today. I'm not sure if half the people going today actually know what Holi is except for the fact that it is fun. Go to this link and learn about Holi! *Pictures will be forthcoming!* **ETA: So, there was a HUGE accident on the freeway on the way to Spanish Fork yesterday and being the impatient driver that I am, decided to go around the accident. We went through Springville and Mapleton to avoid the accident. Well, not knowing what exit we were at, we weren't sure where we were and completely missed the festival. I was a little bummed. Well, a lot bummed. Kim and I went up the Spanish Fork Canyon instead to a town that was flooded years ago. Hopefully Kim won't hate me forever for missing the festival...
