If I Could...

Truths...okay, okay...confessions:

I'm addicted to pinterest.com - truly, it's like getting a new glossy magazine in the mail every day where you get to look at stuff you want and not have to waste your time looking at adverts for things that make you believe that you aren't good enough.

I blog stalk. Everyone else is doing it...

I could use my allotted 40 hours a month of free Pandora in a week.

I drink water like a fish. It keeps my kidneys and liver happy though.

I often have dreams every night. Most of the time they're in color, but once in a while, I'll have a dream in black and white.

I am finding that with age, I'm getting slightly more OCD about things. Don't ask.

I love sticky notes. Any color, shape and size, I love them.

Whenever I go to Staples or OfficeMax, I have to stop myself from buying pens, pencils, notebooks or just any sort of office supplies. It's a bad habit.

I love buying storage bins or any sort of organizational object. I have to steer clear of those aisles at the store when I actually have money, because I'll want to buy a new bin for something I don't have.

I am convinced that when I get married, I am not going to survive sharing a bathroom with a boy. I seriously hate random body hair in the shower or the sink.

I hate overly hairy men. A little body hair is okay, but I don't want to spend my days as a married person shaving my husband's back. Yuck...

It's Okay to Be Sad

I'm sitting in my room nursing a 7-up because I ate too much cheese with my dinner. Being lactose sensitive, edging on completely intolerant, totally sucks. Sometimes dairy doesn't bother my stomach too much, but I guess eating cheese on a completely empty stomach wasn't the greatest idea but damn, that artichoke and spinach cheese dip was delicious. Was it worth it in the end? Meh..I could go either way at the moment. I just had a memory pop up of my first swig of raw cow milk. It was delicious and totally didn't make my stomach hurt. Anyhow, at lot has been swirling around my brain as of late. Here is a bullet list of the swirling mess: When I left UVU a little over 10 years ago, my GPA was a 1.95. When I came back in the fall I had to fill out a satisfactory academic progress (SAP) report thing to 1.) get my financial aid released, and 2.) promise to get a C or better for the remainder of my time at UVU. Well, I barely got a D in sociology 1010 class in the fa...

A Healthy Start

So, you know when the beginning of the new year rolls around and you recommit yourself to begin a healthier lifestyle and then you kind of crash and burn somewhere around the end of the month? Yeah...I've been there. Like every year of my my twenties. For some reason, the closer I get to turning 32 - yikes! when did that happen??? - the more I think about where I want my life to go, what I want to do, who I want to be...you get the point. Almost a week ago, I started exercising every day with just one rest day a week. Today - Saturday - is my rest day. It also is my sugar day. Anyhow, last Sunday I was sitting in my room perusing Pinterest. I was coming off a graveyard shift sleep the daylight hours away stint and I was bored. I said to myself, "You should do something healthy today. You've slept all day and have energy to burn." Somehow I ended up on this wall exercise chart thing on a friend's board and I thought, I can do this. It's quiet. I won't wake...

Things I Don't Talk About Much

"I have learned that we feel like a failure when we make mistakes even when we profess a belief that the purpose of this existence is to make and learn from them." Growing up in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I have had this belief that - as the quote says - we are here experiencing mortality to make mistakes and to learn from them so we can, eventually, become exalted beings and live with our Heavenly Father. In it's simplest form, that is why we're here. We have steps that we have to perform to attain such exaltation; faith, repentance, baptism, gift of the Holy Ghost, enduring to the end, temple ordinances...you get the point. The first three things I mentioned are always ongoing. We're baptized with water and every week with the sacrament, we renew those covenants. It's a time for reflection of what we've done during the week. What went wrong, what went right, what we need to work on.  Anyhow, growing up in the church, I fe...
