Finally!!

You’re looking at the newest Arizona State University Graduate.

I'm so happy to report that my family was on time to my graduation.
This is a big deal for me - especially since my graduation started at 8:00 A.M.

I have the best family!


I won't lie, I cried like a baby when I gave my mom the Stole of Gratitude.


Even though I'm sad that I'm ending this chapter in my life, I'm really excited to start a new chapter and a new adventure.

The End.

Graduation Announcements

I have the house to myself tonight, so I decided to set up camp in my living room and start making my graduation announcements. I was suppose to send them out yesterday, procrastinate much? After about 10 minutes, I became engrossed in my project... Which is why it's 5 in the morning and I'm still not in bed. This is what I'm surrounded by:

Considering projects that I've done in the past, this isn't too bad. The announcements started out with this:

Exhibit A

Cute, but not really my style. So, I changed it to this:

Exhibit B (maroon border)



This is more my style. On a side note, after I printed off about 30 of these I had an anxiety attack because I thought "Arizona" was spelt "Arixona". To my relief, it was just the font and I really do know how to spell (sometimes). Anyways, back to announcements, I like this one but it still looks like it's missing something. So, it evolved into this:

Exhibit C (maroon and gold border)

And, this:

Exhibit D (gold and maroon border)

Now it's the hard part. Which one do I want to send? I think I like "B" the best. It's simple and cute (not to mention less work). But, I really like "D" too. What do you think? Also, I'm making about 50 announcements. So, if you want one, email me your address and I'll send you one :)

I Got A Feeling...

...that tonight's gonna be a good night.

Actually, it should be "I got a feeling tonight's gonna be a long night" because, you guessed it, finals are here. That means I'll be staying up into the wee hours of the night studying. On the bright side, I'm graduating soon and I won't have to do this again for a very long time. Ugh... until then, I have a very long night ahead of me. Hopefully I can stay awake. Wish me luck!

Too Hot to Handle

My little brother Aaron had his state championship football game tonight.

And, guess what?

That's right

They won!!

And when I say they won, I mean they creamed them!

The other team didn't have a chance.

We went to Buffalo Wild Wings to celebrate. Aaron got the hottest wings on the menu. For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to try one. No beueno! It wasn't bad at first... Then the heat kicked in. I literally had tears running down my face.

I guess I can't handle the heat.

Jar of Hearts



Seriously, I love this song. One of my new favorites.

On a side note, I'm graduating from ASU in exactly one month from now.

Utah or Bust. Part 1.

I went to Salt Lake City over the weekend to visit my best friend Jessica. I flew into SLC late Friday night. I was really tired but that didn't stop us from staying up late and talking.



Let me tell you something. Utah is really cold. This poor little Arizona girl was freezing! My feet were starting to turn blue. Jessica was kind enough to let me borrow some of her booties. They were so warm! I really want some now.



We were really busy on Saturday. We started the day off by going to the Bountiful Temple.



          

There were leaves everywhere. We couldn't help ourselves, we had to play in them.



After the temple, we went to Mueller Park for a little bit.



We got there in the early afternoon. It was the perfect time of day to go for a walk. It was beautiful outside; we didn't even need a sweater. The air was brisk and clean. There was an occasional light breeze that would nip at our toes. Simply perfect.

After Mueller Park, we went to Temple Square. But, I'm tired of blogging right now so I'll tell you about it later. Until next time....

All Hallow's Eve

October’s here (actually it’s almost gone) and it brought along some great memories with it. Today is the 31st and I’m still trying to figure out where the month went. Do you know? I must be getting old or something...

Honestly, I can’t tell you where the time has gone, but I can tell you this: I’m really looking forward to the next two months. We just celebrated Halloween, Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away, I’m graduating in December (YAY!!), then Christmas and New Years. Are you as excited as am I?

This was one of the best Halloweens I’ve ever had. This Halloween season consisted of a Halloween carnival, pumpkin carving with my family, a fall extravaganza (with chili, cornbread, scary stories and pumpkin carving), a haunted house out in Buckeye, and three Halloween parties. Yes, it was a busy month and yes, it was so much fun. There is only one downfall/negative thing to all of this fun. I was up late many a night catching up on homework and studying. Yup, you guessed it! I still have a bad case of senioritis. I think it was all worth it though.



Ugh, too much candy!
