Yayayayay date night!
We were gonna see Beauty and the Beast in 3D, but we realized that we didn't really like 3D, and we didn't want to pay money for a movie we've seen a million times. We'll wait until it goes to the dollar theater. Cheap people we are. It's the whole broke college thing. I mean, I had it all planned out to be a street pharmacist, but turns out that's frowned upon....

So we're seeing Moneyball instead. Not neccessarily my first choice for a movie this weekend, but I'm still excited being that yesterday was our four month anniversary and all.. no big deal.

So I'm watching Greek/getting ready. Enjoy your weekend lovelies!

Love, Sarai

PS: Watch Grey's Anatomy, the latest episode. I loved it :)

Also, watch Modern Family.

I love myself some good TV ;)


Departure from Normalicy

You know how there are those people who blog, and you feel like they don't really exist, even though they obviously do, it's just you know you'll never run into them in real life unless it's on purpose? Well Noah from Systematic Departure from Normalicy is one of those people. In my mind, he's one of those amazingly cool bloggers who I could never have the pleasure of running into on campus. Which until today was one hundred percent true. But, on today, a day that I was determined would be awful, he just so happened to stop me on campus on my way to the testing center, and he took my picture for his blog! I was shocked and delighted :)

Seriously though, he proved to me that even on days when things seem awful, there can still be little happy moments ;)

A few other happy moments:
-100% on my Book of Mormon quiz
-my hat
-Jamba Juice
-Four month anniversary with Dane :)
-breakfast for dinner

So check out Noah's blog, and enjoy your days, even the ones that are bad, because they can still be great.

Love, Sarai

Awkward and Awesome


Awkward
-all of these RMs making small talk
-introducing yourself a million times a day only for half of the people to think you either said "Macy" or "Ancy". Is it really that hard to hear the 'N'?
-the number of times I have to blow my nose in one day. Thank you Rexburg for being a freezer.
-nose bleeds while getting ready for class and then realizing some blood got on the floor that you stepped in and now it's all over the place
-being the only one in the apartment who leaves my stuff everywhere...
-the bishop coming over and i'm wearing work out clothes
-warm peach juice

Awesome
-my family. come on, look at those pictures. we're awesome :)
-knocking on the wall, waiting for our neighbors to knock back so we know their home
-painting beautifully weird pictures with my roommate
-my art class. i cried today from its amazingness. enough said.
-talking to my sister and her boyfriend on the phone. you might think it strange but it was totally awesome
- finally finding the lounge in our apartment
-baking cakes and decorating them with skittles
-my english teacher writing me a note that said he could already tell i'm a really strong writer (BOOYAH!)
-getting my roommate addicted to 'Once Upon A Time' if you don't watch it. go. right. now.

Happy Painters

Today we painted. 
 And it was good.

 Until I got distracted by myself. 
And then it was good again.
Take pictures of your art. Then it's seen in a different way than even you intended.

Moments

Nail Polish-When The Stars Align by Icing

It snowed this weekend. Huzzah! I was beyond excited, because one of the reasons I was excited to go to Utah was the snow in the winter. My darling friend Beth was NOT happy however, cause she's from Florida. Slightly different weather..
I always wanted there to be snow in Washington, but all we ever got was one inch every once in a while, and it would melt so fast, there was almost no point in the whole thing. Except school always got cancelled, which was way nice. Obviously college doesn't get cancelled....

As for moments. Today I watched a movie with Dane, and we just hung out all evening. I really love this guy. We were cuddling, and talking, and I randomly tickled him. I have to say, this guy isn't the most outwardly happy, or the most smiley, but when he gets tickled... he has the most adorable laugh. It's like, he pushes me away because he's being tickled, but he's also laughing the entire time, so it's impossible for me to stop. I love that moment. Those few minutes when he doesn't stop laughing, and I'm giggling, and we're pushing each other. I just adore that, so much.
Happiness.

Love, Sarai

Oh Ya know...

I don't actually have a reason for the title. But I figured I need to post something so people don't think i'm dead. It's just a little crazy at the moment. 
Enjoy this video that the lovely Corrie showed me today before we all took a little nappy nap :)

Nail Polish-Gold Dust by Icing

Today I felt like a sailor. My pants were all flowy and with lovely buttons up the side, and I felt like I was supposed to be on a boat. But even though I wasn't on a boat, I still had a fantastic day-I got into the Intro to Film class that I so desperately needed. And after only one day, I'm already loving the class. I felt like they were speaking my language! Everyone in there liked movies, and we got to play this quote game where we guessed the random quote that the TA put on the overhead. Joyous occasion, that's for sure. Also I've already seen one of the foreign films we're going to watch in that class. And there's a British boy in there. I wanted him to speak for the entire class period...

And yesterday, I got to see Dane for the first time since break started, and it was so wonderful. We ate at this Italian place, and then we went to see Midnight in Paris. Then we kissed a bit.

So it was pretty great, overall ;)

Love, Sarai

PS: This song makes me want to invent things. Also it makes me want to do my homework... mind-boggling.
