My goodness, I had such a delightful day! Spence and I were up pretty late last night, catching up after his week away. So I slept late, which was nice because I didn't have to work, and I could spend my day doing whatever I pleased. 
So I woke up, cleaned a little, then went out for a bit.
My roommates and I went out for ice cream and drinks, and then we welcomed a new family member! Tiffany brought her bunny, Sammy, home to us. 

So then I spent quite a bit of time with that little baby.

Then Spence got home, and we just dozed on the floor of my living room while Sammy frolicked around us.

Later that night we went to a family game night with Spencer's siblings. I was strangely nervous... which is odd because I pretty much have met his entire family. 

But, it ended up being way competitive, and way fun.

So this is Spence with Sammy.


And this is the diva herself!


Love, Sarai

Swinging


Horse Dress-Target

I met some people in our ward, and this one guy had  a Brazilian hammock.. say what? That was pretty dang fun...


Making an apple pie :)

I am such a happy lady right now. Last night, my sweet boyfriend came home from California (he had left for the week), and it was just a delightful reunion. We haven't been dating very long, but he's a wonderful boy, and he makes me so much happier than anyone else ever has. I'm all twitterpated ;)

Which is, hilarious. I don't like boys who make me feel all gushy and crazy! That's so not my thing! But maybe it is now?

Spence doesn't fit my mold. But I like him for that :)

Love, Sarai

Finals Week


This ridiculously classy ring (not really) is all mine! Thanks to the spandex-clad man who proposed to me in the Wilk... sweet. 


I can't seem to get enough of Hemingway right now. I read this one, then I read the Paris Wife, which is about him, and now i'm reading the Sun Also Rises. I'm in love guys.


Also, this is me in a clock dress, probably right after reading. It's my favorite dress, and I hate to waste it on people who aren't worth it. So it's extra-special :)


so anyway. Finals are going on right about now. So basically the last few weeks of my life have been crazy enough for me to feel like never going to school again. I kid you not, it's really that bad right now. I'm just tired, and wanting to sleep all the time. Oh! Fun fact about me--when I get nervous/anxious/stressed, or any combination of those adjectives, I am a wreck, and I can't eat. So basically, that means I realized about halfway through my day that I actually had not eaten a single thing today. Now how's that for super-messed up? awesome...

But also, I would like to point out a few really great things. I have noticed the Lord's hand in my life so often lately. Everything about my life has been stressful, and crazy. But somehow, it all has managed to work out quite nicely. I really think that anyone who is not relying on the Lord is missing out on how wonderful is feels to know that someone is there, watching over me, directing my path, creating new ones for me when old ones get destroyed. For example. Work is a stressful mess sometimes, but somehow I have two great jobs, and I'm excelling quite nicely at both.
Or with school. I was actually pretty worried about my grades, but through the tender mercies of understanding professors, things have been falling into place. Not without a lot of hard work on my end, but still.
And love. I'm not in a place to speak about my love life in depth. But that sweet musician I had a crush on? I think he's altogether bad news. And thankfully, I came to understand that before things got heavy. Now I'm just going on some great dates :)

So anyway, I just hope that we can all take a moment to open our eyes and our hearts and remember that we're not doing it alone :)

Love,  Sarai

So excited for this to come out...

City of Salt Pt. 1













{I promise I don't take myself seriously... the gate was running away from me, and Syd got a shot right as I awkwardly looked at her while trying to pull the gate back to me...}


{Also, my best friend is such a babe}

Dress-Romy
Shoes-thrifted

belt-F21
Sunglasses-Icing

These are only a few of the millions and billions of pictures that Sydney and I took the other day when we were in SLC. We went down simply to have a girls day. It started at Toasters, where we got the most delicious of all avocado sandwiches. Then we moseyed on over to the library, where we ended up buying a handful of delightful and fantastic books. I have a thing for books...

Then we took a kajillion pictures on the roof. It was great. Sydney makes me look fantastic, even when I'm looking a lil bit frumptastic.

After some book perusal, and a random creepy guy following us around, we chanced upon the capitol building. It was a marvelous place for a photoshoot, as you can see. And these are honestly not even close to half of the pictures we took. It gets a little ridiculous when we get together...

But, we met a strange political man there... more on that another time..

For the moment, I'll just wax poetic about how hectic and crazy my life can be. I'm looking into getting a car, and I'm starting a second job, just as finals are about to start.. why am I so crazy?

Also. That musician that I have a crush on? He's pretty fantastic. We've been talking to each other for quite some time, and we finally hung out in real life, and I must say, I've never met anyone quite like him. It's strange, how you can just be minding your own business, when everything suddenly changes, and you have to just gasp and go "oh. So that's the reason". That was a bit of a ramble. But suffice to say, I don't always make the smartest choices with men. I've been known to give people the benefit of the doubt more often than not, and it can be a bit of a challenge. But. Everything is wonderful now :)

Love, Sarai

My Nose in a Book


By George, I've done it! I got a second job. At Barnes & Noble, of all places. Thank my lucky stars, I adore that place. I'm not leaving Victoria's Secret. I just need a job to fill up hours now that school will be ending so soon.

So yup. I'm the crazy underwear book lady. Is there anything more wonderful than smelling books?

Also, I'm incredibly lucky to find such wonderful jobs.

Love, Sarai

A Crush





Details:
Dress-Thrifted
Tights-Icing
Flats-Forever Young

Ladies and Gents. Stare into my eyes in these photos and you will be staring into the soul of the world's WORST dancer. It's basically an award that they're giving out these days. I just got back from my jazz lab, and oh goodness sakes. How does a person who isn't clumsy at all in their normal life (we're talking walking in six inch heels guys) become the most uncoordinated person alive when dancing occurs?

It's terrifying. I'm always so awkward...

Also, can I just point out the ridiculous length of my hair in that bottom picture? I'm pulling on a strand, and it's down by my hips! What in the freak?

Also, I have a crush. It may or not be on the entire band "the Lumineers". Everything. The band, the clothes, the music, the girl, the boys. I love it all.

Oh, also, I have a crush on a person. But that's unimportant. He's just a cute musician man.

Love, Sarai

I have this song stuck in my head, but in the best possible way
