Picture Post



It has been a long past couple of months, but they have been filled with mostly good things. I am so glad that I have had a wonderful iPhone to document most of it in pictures. It also doesn't help that I have become addicted to instagram. So for those of you that hate the photo heavy posts, I will apologise in advance.


All of the pictures on this post have been taken from my iPhone since Christmas, and most of them have been shared on instagram. Correction: I took most of them, Nathan took some of them on his iPod and I got ahold of them and am using them on my blog. Since he got his iPod, we have practically been partners in crime, especially on snapchat and instagram. We have been blowing up everyone's feeds with silly pictures that we took together. I guess that's what happens when you have a best friend that will do silly things with you all the time.




He gets photo credit for all of those of us together except the one in the center when we were at school. Well, he took that picture too, but it was on my phone, not his iPod. He honestly makes my day! I love that we can be ridiculously silly without having to worry about people thinking we are weird since we just don't care. I might as well say what we were doing in all of these pictures, so the top left and right were from when we were downtown for the Martin Luther King Jr. Day parade, the top middle was just s one day at school, and the bottom was the Stinky Sneaker (aka the most amazing basketball game of the year that is a HUGE deal that we won!).

We have also driven everyone that follows us on instagram by
"mentioning" each other in several other silly photos that we take, like these ones (the ones on the sides of this that are pictures of Panda Express food, us with the Panda Express food, the picture of the puzzle art that we made downtown, and the picture of him with my brother photobombing the picture).

Besides instagram being loads of fun to use for sharing pictures of people, it has also been awesome for inspiring my to take pictures that are of other random things. Whether it be a picture of what I am doing or just something cool that I happened to walk past, I have loved the motivation to take pictures.













These are most of the silly pictures that have been taken either in the name of instagram or snapchat. It is so fun and has given me a chance to express either an artistic or silly side of myself depending on the occasion.

Some exciting news right now includes this: I got my acceptance from BYU-Idaho!


I was so thrilled to finally get my letter! Most of my friends started getting theirs two weeks before, and I made the priority deadline, but still had to wait a while. It's a good thing that I have been accepted since this is the only school that I want to go to and the only school that I applied for.

Some random good news from the last week was that I saw blue skies! It was warm enough for me to open my sunroof (which really wasn't that warm, but it wasn't so cold that I had to scrape my windshield in the morning).


 There is some bad news though. I didn't die, but many people thought that I was delirious. I went ice skating last Wednesday night, and I slipped and fell a few times. That's normally not a big deal at all, but the last time, I hit my head really hard on the ice. I had a huge goose egg on the back of my head, and had to ice it all night. I didn't get a concussion, but it still wasn't a whole lot of fun. For the rest of the night, people were asking me questions as if I had a concussion. I got asked what day it was, what day my birthday was, how many fingers someone was holding up, and a bunch of other silly things like that. I was just fine though. The worst part was that everyone wouldn't leave me alone and that my hand was cold from holding the ice on my head for so long. It also was kind of painful to sleep on my head that night because the bump did hurt, and I toss around in my sleep, so I woke up several times in the night to turn because I had just turned to my back and it was hurting my head a lot.



One last AMAZINGLY COOL thing before I finish this post. My friend Aubrey, has the coolest water bottle in the world. How do I know? I have the same one. Yup, that's right! We match. Same color, style, and everything. We are so cool!
