My sister's are the best. I know that many of you out there will argue that, and I understand. But for reals. My sisters are the craziest chillen on this side of the Mississippi, it's ridiculous. They coerced me (it wasn't that difficult) into going to see the Glee 3D concert Movie with them....

and you know what?

it was surprisingly awesome. It wasn't just them singing, there were interviews with fans, one of which was the cutest little boy I've ever seen in my life! He was so precious :)

Anyway, being home and hanging out with my sisters has made me realize how much I miss them when I go to school. We honestly haven't fought a bit since I've been home. That's insane for us. We seriously fight every ten minutes normally. Maybe being away for two months has changed that? Who knows....

Well Hello There Fellow Cougars.....



As you can see from this sequence of webcam photos, I am a high school graduate!

As of thursday the sixteenth that is! What day am I an official college student you ask? Why, the day after my high school graduation actually! That's stressful you say? Oh yes, yes it is....

I graduated at eight, got home at ten thirty. Packed/panicked until just past midnight, and woke up at three thirty to drag my suitcases downstairs to catch an early morning flight...So not the most pleasant morning of my life....

But BYU, is amazing....

See for yourself :)

This is my new favorite place <3

Shirt-forever 21, Dress-Michaela (who i love!), Shoes-forever 21, belt-thrifted! Bag-Peru, Ice cream-creamery :)

It's amazing! Being around so many people with the same standards, and learning so much, and the super-spiritual devotional, and everything. I'm loving every minute of it.

Ready for the story of why I decided to come here? It's simple really....

Three years ago, about, my brother went to BYU as a freshman. I was the exact of him in the aspect that I did not want to go to a typical LDS school. That was the opposite of what I wanted. I was banking on somewhere sophisticated, such as NYU, or FIDM....

But then we drove my brother to school. We walked onto the campus, and I felt an overwhelming feeling of comfort. I knew that it was where I wanted to be for the rest of my education. It was truly eye-opening.

And now it's my home :)

I've met some amazing people too! But I do miss my family. And Nancy. That's super-hard for both of us :( Love you besty!

And now, onto the important matter of, my shoes........

These shoes, I bought a few hours before graduation, when i fell in love! I went to go buy nude heels, and walked out with gold glittery stilettos....Please promise me they don't look like stripper shoes!

I hope they bring you as much joy as they do me.....

And here's for a random picture of my crazy hair at the end of the day right before bed...it's another awkward webcam pic. Enjoy!

At Tiffany's, I Wished I Was Audrey Hepburn



But first, these are the pants that I refashioned! They weren't so attractive before, being flares, which looks awful on me. Now they're cute :) thanks to Lizzie of course!

I've only worn them a few times, but they will get way too much use this fall!

I have to come up with skinny cord outfits!

And of course, these adorable window displays at Tiffany's: made especially for hopeless romantics, such as myself

I'm also kind of in love with this ring <3

All adventures in the fabulous Portland!!

Now onto the awards!

So the top award is for Drama-Acting. I'm in the second column, although you obviously can't read my name. This award means a lot to me. I started doing drama last year, when I found random auditions for Romeo and Juliet at my school. I signed up on a whim, because though I loved acting, I honestly had little experience with it at that point. So I went to auditions. I tried out. I thought I'd be lucky to get a small role. But then--gasp--I could've sworn I was hyperventilating. I looked up and saw my name on the casting sheet, across from JULIET. I had gotten the starring role in my first high school production. Most amazing moment of my life! I have this idea that any actress should be able to say she was Juliet at some point ;)

Anyway, things took off from there--this year so far I've been Hermia in a midsummer night's dream, and Mrs. Webb in Our Town. Fantastic experiences duckys!

And the bottom one is the English Department Award

I'm pretty sure reading and writing are a huge part of my life, but I never realized how good I was at writing until last years english class with Mr. Petersen. That man gave me the condfidence to realize I was GOOD at writing. Or better than good. I was pretty amazing actually. Not to brag or anything, but English is my thing. It's the academic aspect that I somehow excel at.

Both of these awards were an honor :)

Oh and for fashion purposes...

These are my dream shoes. Anyone want to buy me some expensive shoes?

Toast

Have a wonderful day Duckys :)
