CURVE.

My inspiration. My happy place. My comforter. My desire.


I bought this cologne for Jonathan on our One Year anniversary last August.. LOVE IT! Being the sweetheart that he is, he gave it to me when he left on his mission. For the past little while, I've sprayed one squirt onto my bed every night, just because. When I'm sad, I spray it and cuddle up with Franklin. When I miss him, or when I'm about to be creative, I wear it as if it's my perfume. (I try not to do it too much though, cause people often think that's kind of weird that I'm wearing cologne..?) Whatever. I don't care (:


P.S. I SHOULD BE GETTING A LETTER TODAY/TOMORROW WITH PICTURES!!!!
P.S.S. MOM SENT KAY AND I A PACKAGE!!! (:

Embarassing... and painful :/

There's a girl that lives in the Bran that throws some sort of food party every week. Yesterday was ice cream sundae day (: !! YES! Unfortunately though, the time comes when you have to cease stuffing your face with that deliciousness and leave the party. When you walk out of her apartment, there are a few stairs that you have to walk up, and then a few you walk down.. Well I wasn't paying very close attention and went to grab my phone and didn't see the stairs to go down. I missed two steps, landed on the edge of the third and BIFFED IT! So I hurried and got up, looking around to see if anyone had just witnessed that, and when didn't see anyone, I walked off pretty fast.. I went to my downstairs apartment (Holly, Jori, Carly & Lindsey's apartment) and just told them the story. Then I found all of my owies!!



Scraped up my wrist and it hurts worse than it looks! Somehow scraped up my shin too? AND MY TOES! I JUUUUSSSTTT PAINTED THEM 2 HOURS BEFORE THIS! Gosh dangit. I was so mad about that! Poor little toesies..

Then when I was leaving the girls' apartment, I tripped on at least 2 things, almost falling flat on my face. But because I have such awesome reflexes and balance, I stayed alive.. My goodness.

And-

If I could have any job in the world, this would be it.

Cartoons..

..these days are so stupid! What happened to the good ol' cartoons like these?!




1. Arthur
2. Dexter's Laboratory
3. That's 70 Show
4. Bananas In Pajamas
5. Recess
6. The Woody Woodpecker Show
7. Franklin
8. Malcom In The Middle
9. Pippy Longstocking

I am determined to find somewhere that has them and give them to my children whenever that time comes. Because I'm sure the cartoons that are on when they're growing up will be 20 times worse than what's on right now!

Zoey and the stupid white sock..

Cool title, huh? It could be a good children's book title if I substituted the word "stupid" with something less harsh (: Well, I made a trip to the bank yesterday to grab some coin rolls so I could count all the money that Zoey had been keeping for me! A few months ago, I had a $20 bill that I found, but I had no use for it at the time. So what did I do? PUT IT IN ZOEY! And thank goodness I did, because now I REALLLLY need it!

Now, it may not look like much, but there was actually $53.45 in there!! YES, YES, YES!!! This is the money I'm allowing myself to spend in Mexico! Hopefully I won't need more than that!

And for the stupid sock. I never ever ever wear white socks.. and the one day that I do, this is what I get:

A HOLE! RIGHT WHERE MY BIG TOE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SO WARM AND COMFY! But noooooo. I have learned my lesson.

You have won this time, white socks.

I have an announcement:

AND I'M SO EXCITED TO TELL YOU!!!!

Her name is Zoey the ZebraPig (:

&&&AND&&&

This is my car.. formerly known as "The Grouch"

But a name change has been called for.. are you ready for it??

HIS NAME IS NOW HUMPERDINK!!
Direct quote from Kaylee: "HUMPERDINK!?!?!?! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! I want to ride in your car everyday now"

That's right.. he is the coolest of cool(:

Just thought I'd share

the song that Bishop McCurdy had us listen to yesterday:

VIRTUOUS, FAITHFUL AND WISE By TUCKER HANSEN

Chosen of God so clean so pure, Chosen to give birth to our Lord, Worthy to carry God's gift to the world, Mary, your burden was your reward.

Did she know she was the mother of God, When she held him in the straw? Did He see in her eyes, her courage, her faith? Did He look up in wonder and awe?

Someday she'll stand before her Son, With head held high, she'll look in his eyes. He'll thank her for being his mother on earth, For being virtuous, faithful and wise.

Do you know you are a daughter of God? Do you know He knows your name? And like Mary before, He's looking to you, To prepare yourself the same.

Someday you'll stand before the Lord, With head held high, you'll look in His eyes. He'll thank you for being a mother on earth, For being virtuous, faithful, and wise.

I'll prepare myself now to be worth that day, By being virtuous, faithful, and wise.

Today

is NOT going well at all.

I really just want to go home, lay in bed with 7 cartons of ice cream lined up on a table beside me (so I don't get cold, of course), watch cute chick flicks and cry. Then fall asleep forever. It's that time.. if you know what I mean.

Good thing I have amazing friends who give up going to a paint club and tell me we'll just stay home and have a girls night and watch movies all night.. Thanks, Courtney (:

But the good news: It's Friday. Which means I don't have to deal with annoying co-workers for two whole days once I leave here today!!

ANNNDDDDD I will be on a cruise ship in 10 days, 2 hours, 43 minutes and 25 seconds (:

I am so inspired!

I got a letter from Jonathan earlier this week with a quote by President Gordon B. Hinckley titled, LOOK FOR THE SUNLIGHT:
"I am asking that we stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. I am suggesting that as we go through life, we 'accentuate the possitive'. I am asking that we look a little deeper for the good.. look for the sunlight through the clouds."


Absolutely amazing. He was one awesome man of God, that's for sure.

Another thing that's keeping me with the spirit that I'm feeling so strongly was Institute last night. I'll post about it on my institute blog later on, but it was stupendous, to say the least! I'm in love with that class.

Anyways, Happy Thursday!
