formalformalformalformalformalformal. ;D

2009-11-08T21:35:00.000-08:00

so hey.

ive decided that every conversation i have with my friends, seems to turn around to talking about formal. now it may have something to do with the fact that we were already mentioning clothes, which led to dresses, which leads to formal dresses. maybe that we talk about boys, which led to boyfriends, which leads to dates for formal. maybe we talk about someone getting their license, which led to cars, which leads to rides for formal.

but honestly, i think we just like being giddy teenage girls :)

seriously ive decided the countdown has offically begun...

9 DAYS TIL FORMAL!

11 DAYS TILL I GRADUATE!!!!

the end of an era.

2009-10-28T15:11:00.000-07:00

well, this week has been full of 'lasts'- although i know this next month will hold more.

wednesday was my last lesson and seminary. and today was my last day ever. im filled with a sense of melancholy as this era ends, i look forward to the next one that lies not so far around the corner. i start summer institute next week!

I have loved seminary. it has begun my love for the scriptures. im grateful for the spirit i felt each day.

im glad i could have such an enjoyable 4 years, that have helped me everyday. ill sure miss the upliftment each morning. but i know that because of seminary i can continue to learn more each time i read my scriptures.

im so thankful for my amazing seminary teacher, sis muir. shes taught me from the very begining, so much. im forever grateful for her insight and inspiring lessons and stories. i love you!

i have a testimony of seminary and the power of diligent scripture study. i know that when we follow the Lords example, we cant go wrong. i know the scriptures are the word of God, and are here today for us to read! im sad to leave, but grateful for the time i had. i love my Saviour and i know he is proud of me when i make righteous choices.

my top ten dr. seuss quotes:

2009-10-12T00:47:00.000-07:00

i love dr seuss, i think hes incredibly awesome. hes so great. and i seriously think hes as in-genius as shakespeare :)

so i put together some of my favourite quotes.

#10
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself, any direction you choose.

#9
And will you succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.

#8
So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads.

#7
I meant what I said, and I said what I meant. An elephant's faithful, one hundred percent.

#6
If you never did, you should. These things are fun, and fun is good.

#5
Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So... get on your way.

#4
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.

#3
From there to here, and here to there, funny things are everywhere.

#2
Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.

and my #1

my new chapter.

2009-09-25T00:06:00.000-07:00

so lately i have been seriously considering wearing a wig. i talked to a bunch of my friends about this. then i asked what my sister elly thought. she told me i should stop wearing anything on my head. i dismissed this idea without much thought, but then she told me that if i stopped wearing scarves and beanies- that she would.. wait for it... shave her head for me. so i seriously thought about things. this could be a life changer. the freedom of not having to worry about scarves or wigs. just being me. no pretending, no one else.
i told elly, that i would. she talked to my sisters and my mummy. tara agreed to shave her head with elly, mum had to ask work.
so we picked a day; that day being- today; Friday the 25th of September 2009(: because elly and mum both work in customer service, they were not able to shave their heads, but mums work did allow her to cut it short (she just cant have her scalp showing).

so this morning jaime came to support and tara and mum got their hair cut, and i took off my last scarf for the last time.

rick took some video footage that you will be able to see at a later date. (elly and dad had to go to work, but i love them both) then jaime and rick had to go. so tara, mum, freyr and i went to harbourtown. we splurged and had lunch at fasta pasta. then windowshopped(:

i love my family and i feel truly blessed.

here are what snaps we took:

2009-08-29T18:14:00.000-07:00

dont forget i lovee comments!! (:

The 15 Creepiest Vintage Ads Of All Time

2009-07-28T22:37:00.000-07:00

What do murder, pedophilia, suicide and a baby tiger have in common? They have all been used to sell stuff in these amazingly disturbing vintage ads!

These are real, untouched advertisements from the good old days. It doesn't matter if it's lovely ladies or adorable clowns, somehow these old-time ad wizards found ways to traumatize us while peddling everyday products.

Enjoy them now, call your therapist later!

15. White Bread Demon
"Bread is swell, but what I'm really excited about is eating jelly made from the blood of the innocent!"

14. French Suicide Sausage
It's enough to make you want to eat Kosher forever.

13. A Girl Around The House
It's nice to have a girl around the house... especially if you are a psychopath serial killer who makes women into rugs!

12. Chubby
Who needs self-esteem when you can have a free fashion book for chubbies? Also, proving that advertising weight representation has always been screwed up, the girl pictured is totally not chubby.

11. Christmas Weapons
The family that guns together, has funs together.

10. Eye patch. Shirt. Baby Tiger
Sexy?

9. Chase & Sandborn Spanking
She totally deserves it. Seriously, what kind of woman doesn't "store test" for fresher coffee?

8. Fry's Chocolate Nightmare
Nothing wants to make consumers buy chocolate more than 5 faces of a sickly kid looking 5 different shades of miserable.

7. Root Beer Baby!
Mama, please DO NOT give your baby another glass of Root Beer. It is clearly doing something horrible to him. He is terrifying.

6. Locked Out
You better wash out your privates with Lysol, or your husband will install cartoon locks on the door.

5. Pears Soap Disaster
"Pears Soap- now with such a soothing lather, you won't notice that your baby has gotten into a horrible accident!"

4. Postage Meter Murder
"Is it always illegal to kill a woman?" This is a truly important question and makes us want to buy a new postage meter.

3. Shave Yourself
The old man baby's gonna sing karaoke into a razor! Hooray!

2. Baby Soft
JonBenét Ramsey, eat your heart out. (Too soon?) This ad makes us want to scream, gouge out our eyes and then barf.

1. Chocolate Poulain
Drink that cocoa, or this clown will murder you in your sleep.

HAKUNA MATATA! ;D

so heres two things you need to know-
1) i am studing year twelve and i am currently in the midst of my two week break during semesters.

and 2) my two and a half year old nephew is, at present, staying in our house.

heres something else you might need to know, he is insanely smart and cute, and extremely aware of that fact. freyr (my nephew) also, just like is auntie, loves all things disney.

needless to say that i have spent a good 97% of my holidays watching said disney movies with my beautiful nephew.

heres the list that i have comprised:
-tarzan (watching right now actually)

-lion king (of course)

-cars

-a bugs life

-toy story

-finding nemo

-kung fu panda

-monsters inc

-aladdin

-the incredibles

to you, that might not sound like all that much, especially if you have kids who are disney fans... however, to a sixteen year old girl, on break from year twelve (if you didnt notice, i like saying that)

that is an excesive amount of disney!

i have spent wayyy to much of my holiday watching these movies-
i now ALWAYS have a disney song in my head, theres no getting past it!
one minute it will be- prince ali, fabulous he, alliababwa, and the next will be how youve got a friend in me.

no matter how much i love freyr, and how much i love disney.
i have reached my breaking point;
i must put my foot down, and end this madness, if nothing else but to protect my sanity!

'Okay, here we go. Focus. Speed. I am speed. One winner, forty-two losers. I eat losers for breakfast. Breakfast? Maybe I should have had breakfast? Brekkie could be good for me. No, no, no, focus. Speed. Faster than fast, quicker than quick. I am Lightning.

i was born in the wrong era!

2009-07-01T23:37:00.000-07:00

if you know me well, you'll know tht i am a lover of the classics.

the good ones, audrey hepburn, debbie reynolds, frank sinatra, donald oconner,
and my absolute favourite, gene kelly!!!
he's such a babe!!!

but seriously, i think about it all the time, and
im positive i was born into the wrong era(:

so my total fav movie of allll timeeee is singing in the rain, and if you havent seen you must!
gene kelly is such an amazing dancer, singer and performer; i just might have a small crush on him.. :D

as much as no one can be compared to his genius, and heartmelting smile....

i really love usher, he really is amazing.
he has done a 'tribute to singing in the rain' and gene kelly, its fantastic!!!

(no real comparision to gene of course, but he makes it his own)

i just thought id share it with you all, and please remember, when you comment i smile(:
