  Dear World,
  If you ever want to witness in the full majesty of the Utah-Mormon Subculture, this is your goldmine.

This day started off on a sweet and mellow note.

 Sunday truly is the best day of the week!  

 {Almost nailed it, awks rock. Moni- you look fabulous as always!}

Here are some more fine, fine and dandy people I have become recently acquainted with!

The short walk home was sublime! This winter tundra-esque weather has been a jarring, but nice reminder of home. But now it can go back north where it came from.

Sunday night- all heckle breaks loose as visiting hours commence. I got my guitar, Nell E. restrung and tuned by some fine gents and life is now sublime!

Then, it was break the Sabbath at Ihop with these crazies! 

Impressed? We sure entertained ourselves with the packets a joy.

I got some patterns all up in here.

Members of the Broternity. 

So, Happy Martin Luther King day! I'm waking up bright and early to participate in the Community Outreach Day, and then more exciting plans for the week are to follow!

Mucho love,

It's Saturday night, my third here this semester. I always find difficulty in narrowing down my life story- I'm always found blabbering on and on about an event that could be summerized in a few sentences, but since when have I ever taken the easy road when the hard one was offered? Alright, philosophizing over. 

In short,

Life is hard, and then we die.

At least that is how some days feel, and that is okay. Here is my tale of this day, the 19th of January. {P>S> how is it already the 19th? time flyys when ur havin fun :}

(This song fits well as background music. Too bad this is just a screenshot suckas)

The Good: 
Shopping at Nordstrom's Rack and Target with my sweets! {and of course my twin brotha and my dear motha before she left for the homecountry) 

 These new Sorel's on my feet are from heaven above. 

The Bad and Ugly:

After an emotional whirlwind of weeks, the perfect storm struck.

 On my way home, I drove past my childhood home. MY house. OUR HOUSE. The absolutely hardest goodbye so far in my life has been on August 6th, 2006 when I said farewell to my home. I left a note in my closet that was for whoever would find it which said how much I love this house and I hope the next owners would love our house as much as I did. Turns out, the family who currently lives there decided to buy our house because of that note. 

So anyways, I came in the back way of our neighborhood (The last time I was there was a year ago, so I was ill prepared..) and as I stopped at the stop sign to take the photo and then drove past, I broke down into hard core tears. I never cry, and it felt so, so, so very good to let it out. I just love my home so much, and the symbol 2463 W. Country Bend has been in my life. Now, I have all my family with me (minus my Grandma Marilyn) and I know home is where the heart is, but I always, always have this house as my center. 

My dream? To become rich and famous just so I can buy our house back and raise my own family in.

Trying to self-soothe my broken heart, I went to my skating rink. I went here nearly every day in 6th grade, the year right before I moved. 

 {Rentals were closed, and my skates are in Canada, so my heart is achin' for a skate!) 

But, you know what?

Heavenly Father loves us more than we can fathom.

 It was too hard to drive through my tears, (so dramatic, but true) so I pitstopped at another place from my childhood- Thanksgiving Pointe. 

I ate some delicious food,

took a nap, (from 6:30 to 7:30)

and am at peace.

Love,

P.S. Besides the US and Canada, Russia is the country where a third of my views come from. If you are in Russia and are reading this, will you say hello?

Well, what to say about today?

It was good. I like to clean my room, give away Sweet Tooth Fairy cupcakes to those in my hall, and chat with new friends. Also, cat naps, food, and Ward Prayer and mission calls, and lunch with an old, but new dear friend made Thursday  grrrreat.

 84th BIrthday Celebration with the most amazing grandfather I could conjure in my mind, but who actually exists, Leon R. Hartshorn. I loved spending last night with my family, and my BCF Maddie!

{Before I went to the St. Mary's game, this happened:}

{Setting: Guru's on Center Street, Provo Utah, around 10:15 am for Breakfast with my visiting mother } 

As we ordered our food, and before we sat down, I noticed a man with a St. Mary's Basketball shirt on, working on a laptop. He, apparently a visitor from out of state and possibly hanging out at this local eatery before the big game tonight. We ate our food, and I continued to take a glance every now and then. As it was time to go, I headed up to the cash register to get a bag for our food, it was then I seized the opportunity. As I breezed past to the exit, this is what occurred, essentially:

Me: "Welcome to Cougar Town. (with an added sly rock and roll hand gesture)."

He registers, then a solid "HAH! chuckle chuckle"

I left, went about my day. As I just retold my tale here in the CougarEat, I googled the man in suspect:

What even is this life?!
Peace out. 

RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH the game is 9 PM Tonight at the Marriott Center, here in the one and only cougar town, PROVO UTAH!

 I went to the game solo, found some new Korean exhange students BFF's. We lost, but I always have a blast in the student section! 

"Isn't Mary's a Girl's name?" Low blow, but effective.

 That is Randy himself there on the court, in the suit, to the left!

You can now leave Cougartown.

 ESPN stuff happening behind me! celeb statuss

 My kind of dereanged face results in the discovery of mission calls!

Target fail. But now, I have an elephant humidifyer. 

So, this is quick, but I wanted to check in! Plus, yesterday was also great because I had lunch with my twin brother and mom at Zupa's and also got some new things at Targetty.

Life is swell, when you make it swell. 

Love,

MM

"Everything has changed"

Today was so wonderful, but had its awful moments. Nothing a good sleep and medication can't fix!

Goodnight worlds.

The 7th Day

{I'm sorry- everything is glitchy right now but I'll have things figured out eventually}

The first day of winter semester 2013 was a smashing success. The only visual evidence of the day is as follows:

I woke up bright and early at 8:30 for no good reason at all. I walked(!) to school in this uncomfortable weather and went to:

• Geography 120
• I'm looking forward to this one. (Plus the professor actually looks like a professor with the vests and the glasses and the enthusiasm).
• Writing 150
• Made some new friends in this itty bitty class. We meet boardroom style in the JFSB
• Religion 122 (B.O.M. part II)
• This will be the greatest Book of Mormon class yet, I can feel it!

Then I had time to head back and then saw a few friends. Next was:

• Beginner Ballet (with Becksh Vancsh!)

I ate dinner, washed bedding, practiced this song, cleaned and organized, decorated, watched Downton Abbey and Freaks and Geeks, and ate more food. Trader Joe's, you've done me well. 

Love,

MMA

I love college...

This much!

Really, the eyes say it all.

-New dorm (hotel I call it)

- New classes start at 11 am today

- New friends to be made!

Ain't it swell?

Winter 2013? Come at me!

I'm so ready.

Love,

MM
