green shirts and giggling

Alli has a new MC (mini crush)! hehe I was going to put boys on the back burner for now, because I think I kind of intimidate them...yeah about that - that all changed when I met this boy named Preston. Lauren knows him already because she dated his cousin, Dustin, her freshman year. I actually met Preston at Winger's - I was with some other people. We got to talking and he went on splits with Sam on their missions. haha I guarantee he has seen a picture of me because you know how Sam was so anxious to put his family out on the line. haha Love it.
He and Dustin came over for dinner on Sunday and we had a blast. He is so funny - he says giggle and awkward like I do. hehe They are hilarious! They invited us over to Dustin's bday party for tonight and so Lauren and I took advantage of the opportunity. We had so much fun - lots of laughing playing cards. I didn't get the best chance to hang out with Preston, but we talked and what not. You could say he is the epitome of good looking - no he's hot! haha Tall, brown hair, blue eyes, great laugh, and a killer smile. What more could a girl ask for?
You are probably wondering about the "green shirts and giggling." Well, we all know that I get giggly when I talk about a boy I like or get around a cute boy, so that's the giggling part. The green shirt came into play tonight - I was wearing one of Kellie's green shirts to the party tonight, and lo and behold Preston was also wearing a green shirt. Wait - we matched! haha Very similar greens as well. Out of all the girls that were there, I was the only one wearing a green shirt. Not a big deal, I know, but I thought it was funny. :) Sam, put in a good word for your sister. hehe

v day to utah



The ones of Shauna and I are from when we heart attacked our FHE brothers around 12:30 am Valentine's morning. They still haven't confronted us about it and the hearts are still up to this day! Yeah buddy - we made 64 hearts. I kind of want to go over there and get a picture of them without them knowing. hehe Heart day, Lauren and I were to meet up with our FHE brothers to see The Jumper (excellent movie), but it ended up just being she and I. Confusion - Stuart did apologize quite a few times and still is. haha Ask me out on a date and we can see it together - hello?! haha The next 5 are from when I went down to Utah this past weekend. It was a much needed break. Thank you Sam, Nikki, Sumo and Josh. Loves to all!

mission accomplished

I made it through the whole entire night - class was at 8 am. I am so proud of myself - woo hoo! Sad accomplishment, but surprisingly enough it wasn't that hard to stay awake. I didn't feel all that tired during the night - I kept myself busy doing homework. All in all it was a very productive night with Lauren by my side. haha Funny thing - every hour we took a picture and encorporated that number in the picture. I will have to post them and let you have a lookie-loo at my night. haha Classes went well - I struggled at the beginning of my first class, but then ended up fine. I didn't fall asleep while taking my tests. Aren't your proud? I am pretty sure I am past the point of exhaustion though - I might have to take an hour nap after devo.

sleeping...overrated

so...it's 3:40 am and i am updating my blog. i decided to do something i have never tried before (minus my senior all nighter party) - i am attempting to pull an all nighter. i honestly don't know how this came about, but i have made it thus far. i have two tests tomorrow which i have been studying for - a paper due on wednesday (done) - an assignment due on friday (halfway done). so really? i am using my time well. i will keep you posted (no pun intended) on how the night progresses...

communication

I figure that because most people who look at my blog are the ones that really know me and most of you have known me for my whole life, so I am going to pose a question. In my social work Practice 1 class (individual), we have begun talking about communication - verbal and nonverbal. My question(s): as you have all communicated with me, what have you noticed about me when I speak? What are my gestures when I speak? What is my pitch and tone when I speak? How is my delivery of speech? When I am listening to you speak, how are my listening skills? What do I do when I listen to you speak? I am interested in knowing what you think of my own personal communication skills...
