If he loved you with all the power of his soul for a whole lifetime, he couldn't love you as much as I do in a single day.

-Quote from my FAVorite book: Wuthering Heights
I am in the midst of MIDTERMS and last night /today I lost it. Broke down in tears - I had had enough! I was angry/frustrated/stressed/upset and a myriad of other emotions. I needed to get out of the house - so I got in my car and ended up at D.I.
As long as I can remember, I have hated D.I. Maybe it's the smell of b.o. and old people - or the actual homeless people that wander around there that scare me. Regardless, I wandered over to the books section and there I spent almost an hour and half! I found my stress relief. They have an awesome book collection! It's like 5 aisles. I found bestsellers in hardback and paperback. They have everything from Shakespeare, Nicholas Spark, and yes even Twilight and Harry Potter. I went through every single book. It relaxed me so much. I cannot believe how much in LOVE I am. I adore books and I could have spent another 2 hours searching. AND none of the books at D.I. are like over $6.00
My Purchases:

All under $5.00

Then I smelled pizza and went to Little Caesars for Crazy Bread. Little did I know that if you have your student ID, breadsticks are. 99 Ahh!!!

So I started the day in utter despair and ended it with a good book and 99 cent crazy bread. 

IT'S MY PARTY AND I'LL CRY IF I WANT TO

Don't worry, there were no tears on this girl's birthday!

I got to sleep in late and hang out with my roomies while millions of family and friends called! THANKS!

Then we went to dinner at Olive Garden. We ended up waiting over an hour.........but Gina went and got some breadsticks for me to eat while we waited :)

Then we went home and got ready for my party! We invited the whole ward but only made enough food for like 10-15 people. I really didn't expect that many people to show up. Low and behold we had like 80 people in our apartment an hour later. It was amazing, I felt so loved! My girls made drinks for everyone and Gina did a grand birthday toast. We had cake, chips and dip, brownies, and pancakes. I think I gained like 34290234 pounds. After the party was the after-party - we played scene it for like 2 hours with the Taj boys and Spencer and Chris! After the after party.....was the roommate party!! Wow.
Thanks guys for everything! I love you all!

Beautiful Flowers my dad sent me!!!

Such A Tease

Current Temperature: 53 degrees. :)
I can't handle it. I'm ready to bust out the shorts and go bathing suit shopping. I'm so ready for SUMMA!
There's just something about warm weather that puts me in a good mood.

Things I love about Spring and Summer

• pedicures and flip flops
• picnics and long walks
• laying out 
• boys who work out without their shirts on (I'm only human ;)
• slurpees and ice cream
• SWIMMING
• summer love.......... :)

BUT it's supposed to go back down to the 20s and snow next week. Even if the weather is just teasing me for a while, I will gladly accept it.



I had the most amazing birthday weekend, but my computer died 2 weeks ago and is currently being repaired on campus, so pictures and videos soon to come!
