first day of "spring"

Sorry new friends... blogging has taken a back seat.


Here are some photos from last Sunday for now!


Life is good, life is great, life is wonderful.

Waiting for my ride from the stake center. I was able to listen to my good friend's brother's missionary homecoming and another friend's farewell!

A typical Sunday afternoon-
"Please Sir, take me for a waulk!"

Notice that they are both grinning.

I'm the lucky winner! My prize- walking the dog.

Still pretty in the winter, I can't wait for the green to come back!

I did not walk the dog in this outfit, for that would be quite the effort.

for my gurl becky jo.

CAUTION- IF YOU CARE FOR PEEPS 

THE FOLLOWING PICTURE

 CONTAINS UNPLEASANT IMAGERY.

YUM. 

Just pretend. 

Here is how I decribed my journey to making this outfit work-

"Mom, I fought a battle against my clothes, and I won!"

First, my skirt was too short so I added tights.

It was still too short so I added a plain black dress underneath.

I wore lots of layers, but it was cold so it worked!

Outfit includes:

black shade layering top, forever 21 lace top, vintage necklaces (gifts from my gurl Victoria), "vintage" (three year old) skirt from Nordstom's (mimi chica brand), black dress (layered) from american eagle, sears tights, and my crowning glory....

My beloved Urban Outfitter's Kimchi Blue black suade peep-toe t-strap shoes!

Oh, the love. I feel like they need a name.

kimchi blues, I love you!

Awesome. Just Super Awesome.

"Stage combat is a specialized technique in theatre designed to create the illusion of physical combat without causing harm to the performers. It is employed in live stage plays as well as operatic and ballet productions. The term is also used informally to describe fight choreography for other production media including film and television. It is a common field of study for actors and dancers and is closely related to the practice of stunts." -wiki


Stage fighting is also know as EPIC* and a BLAST!


*just know that I find this word annoying and overused but it fits the situation.


Wait a minute...


here's the real definition of epic:

ep·ic

  [ep-ik] 

–adjective Also, ep·i·cal.

1.

noting or pertaining to a long poetic composition, usuallycentered upon a hero, in which a series of greatachievements or events is narrated in elevated style:Homer's Iliad is an epic poem.

2.

resembling or suggesting such poetry: an epic novel onthe founding of the country.

3.

heroic; majestic; impressively great: the epic events of thewar.

4.

of unusually great size or extent: a crime wave of epicproportions.

So maybe it isn't the best word, so how about:

Fantastic!

Majestic!

Awesome! 

Extraordinary! 

Theater rocks. Dodging punches and slapping faces while lookning ridiculously cool confirms this fact.

{I'm so stoked for our musical "The Astonishing Adventures of Radical Boy and Awesome Girl", can you tell?} 

P.S- Awesome Posse: if you read this, I am a swooning buffoon! 

Me in China? I wish!

I never have thought those words, except during the Beijing Olympics. I had imagined China as crowded and with super strict schools, but after watching the Amazing Race tonight?

Book me on the next flight to Lijiang!

I must say, I think Kent and Vyxsen ran the worst leg ever in the history of Amazing Race.

Anyone else agree?

I love Margie and Luke, and The Globetrotters, but I think Jet and Cord are my favorite team! 

The Day Has Arrived!

the number 13 is lucky for me today

Today is March 13th, which means it has been one year since I got my learner's license, which means (since Alberta is lame is making you wait a year) I CAN LEGALLY GET MY DRIVER'S LICENSE!
I still need to practice and learn how to parallel park. The roads by my house are still terrible so I haven't been able to practice much during the winter.

Look out world! here I come!

Go Cinnamon Ink!

(I tend to mumble a tad, I was talking about the Hilary Duff tune called Last Song, I was using those chords.)

To Kate:

You are uber talented in the ways of cuteness. Here's to a million more prints!

Mucho love,
