Year in review

Incase you forgot, it's New Year's Eve! I honestly can't believe it. I was so glad to have this blog to go through, to have a quick recap of the year! Just thought I'd do a post about this last year as well, as it's last hours go ticking by. P.S. Most of these are blog posts if you dig hard enough for them. 

January- Realized I would never be satisfied figuring out physics problems like the rest of my class. Celebrated Sammy and I's one year anniversary. Started reading a book a week.

February- Played a sweet sixteen with the band. Got to use an awesome head mic! 


Got spoiled on Valentines Day 


March- Rediscovered blogging. Went to Boulder for the first time. Had first college scholarship interview. Teacher appreciation dinner. Purchased a fanny pack. 

Only in Boulder

April- smashed a cake with my fist. Played a prank on my physics teacher. Discovered my love of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Wore said fanny pack bought in March to prom. Found out I had a stalker.


May- Fell in love with A Brave New World. Took my AP Calc and Physics tests, passed em! Went to the aquarium. Graduated. 


June- Started job at Victoria's Secret. Took Sammy to see the temple. Scrolled the dating sites looking for the perfect roommate. 

July- Went to a wedding. Quit job at Victoria's Secret and started at campus bookstore. Gave the singles ward a second try. Saw Singing in the Rain in the big screen. 

August- Moved into dorm. Met roommates. Made friends. Started college. Had an encounter with bed bugs. Became extremely grateful for my bike. 


September- had a hard first few weeks. Adjusted. Surprise visit to Utah. Went kitten hunting. Turned a prime number and had an awesome birthday. MET THE LEAD SINGER OF IMAGINE DRAGONS.



October- was overwhelmed when mission age was changed to 19. Sammy told his parents he wanted to convert. Hence began the toughest month of our relationship. Lots of tears. Made it through. 

November- voted. discovered the awesomeness that is black friday shopping. Helped introduce LOTR with my roommates who have never seen it before. Saw Breaking Dawn Part 2. Was very grateful.

December- dyed my hair blue. was disturbed by fashion industry. went to Utah. Got through first finals week. Ended up passing all my classes. Christmas. Went to Utah once again.

And now, here I am. New Years Eve. I can't wait to see what 2013 has to bring. Especially since it ends in a prime number, and boy I love me my prime numbers.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
