Reflections

I had myself a nice little sit by the duck pond today. I just had things to think about, and it was really nice to have a place to just relax and not think about everything else in the world. It was, in a word, "tranquil". 

Everyone should find a place like this, because chances are you have a lot on your mind.

Love, Sarai

It Felt Like One of Those Coming-of-Age Ice Cream Days

Today was a day that required a great amount of ice cream. Not at all because it was a bad day, but because it was simply an ice cream day. These pictures below are from our adventure to Sub Zero to eat some delicious liquid nitrogen ice cream :) It was such a lovely girls night outing, and it definitely was only the beginning to a perfect night.

Right after we ate ice cream, we "researched bodies of water" so that we could make some crazy fun happen....And crazy fun definitely did happen :) We were all pleased with our decision, and I was happy that I finally could check something off of my bucket list ;)

It was a bonding experience to be that exposed and having so much fun. It was a classic college experience....One to certainly be remembered!

In the last few months, on my journey into college, I have grown up a lot. Not just in the sense that I'm more mature, but also because I have experienced a good many rites of passage. Those rites of passage have been each one an adventure that made me feel older, and wiser, and fantastic. I graduated, bought cute sexy underwear, experienced some things I didn't think I would, and also I bought a capelet, which has nothing to do with anything, but I just like it a lot...

This is my face when I was told that the heaviest guy in the world, the one from Mexico, apparently died. I used to watch him on TLC :(

The time has come

I am officially on the countdown for days until I leave for BYU! Holy Goodness Sakes people! I'm feeling a combination of nervous, but excited...like Zac Efron on SNL...anyways

It's extremely nerve-wracking. Everyone keeps giving me advice, telling me not to date too many people, because apparently freshman guys are really only into NCMOs, but also, don't get too serious because we don't wanna deter or distract. But don't date RM's until I'm ready to get married....?!?! Scary thoughts people, SCARY THOUGHTS.

I'm so not looking for a husband. I mean, 18, and married? My father's worst nightmare. Or maybe, every father's worst nightmare...

And this is only one eighth of the advice I've gotten on dating, not to mention all the advice about jobs, housing, and academics. It's useful, I know. Just a bit overwhelming. But if it wasn't overwhelming, would it really even be considered college? I THINK NOT!

Sorry...I'm capslock heavy today ;)

OH. Also...an explanation for the random pictures of sushi behind my head in the above pictures--I went out to Sushi with my darling friends and I didn't really want to wait until I got home to take pictures, so we busted out the camera right there! It was unbelievably difficult to keep a straight face the whole time...I think maybe I laugh at myself more than is neccessary? ;)

And this, my lovelies....Are the treasures I chanced upon in pottery one day :)

We have to make glaze samples using random pieces of clay that we texture and then paint. And someone got excited and drew Unicorns! Ashley, that was for you :)

Love, Sarai
