This weekend

This weekend was crazy! From getting my hair dyed, trying acupuncture, and going to my first Nuggets game, I'm pretty tired. 
I got blonde highlights on Friday. It was a really fun experience. I went to the Aveda hair institute because I thought it'd be a lot cheaper but it wasn't since my hair is so thick so they had to use extra dye. Oh well, it was worth it. I got a hand massage, head massage, hot towel, peppermint oil rubbed on my temples. It was amazing! 
On my way to get my hair done though, I forgot my wallet so I had to go back home. Oh boy. 

It took a lot longer to get my hair done though than I thought and I had an appointment for acupuncture so I was running late for that. I was able to keep my appointment though. Acupuncture was weird. I was trying it to see how it helped with anxiety. First I was asked about everything in my life. Then the needles went in. The ones that went in my feet hurt going in along with the one in my hands. The other ones didn't hurt at all, including the needle in my forehead. 
Then I was asked to just lay there and relax. I was relaxing until I moved one of my fingers. The needle in my forearm was sitting between two bones in a muscle that was connected to my hand so every little movement hurt so bad. Which wasn't the most relaxing. 
Afterwards though, I felt relaxed. My head was stressed about other things but my body was relaxed. It only lasted until the nuggets game though. 
I was stressed the first half of the game. Lots of people, new place, and the pressure of trying to stay calm were not fun. Plus I was irrationally angry at everything. Why do they have to boo when the other team is shooting? Why did he push him?! 
I was excited to see Lebron James play. It was beautiful watching him play! That man owns basketball. 
An older lady reprimanded Sammy for yelling about her favorite player. It was weird and hilarious at the same time. 
And on Saturday I had my first virgin piña colada at a restraunt. I felt like such a big girl. Sammy's mom had a real one. And Michael has the best face in the background. 

Then Sunday we had our first temple prep class! We're getting closer!

    Nope, the needles wouldn't help with my anxiety, it would just make it worse.

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...

I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
