Insane in the Membrane.

Maybe because it is finals.

Maybe because I really haven't had a real night of sleep in ages.

Maybe it is because I am a crazy college freshman.

Maybe it is because I was born that way

but I have been feeling a little delusional lately.

(Probably because I was born that way...)

Instead of studying (yeah, still haven't done much since my last attempt.)

I have been wasting my precious time adding pictures to my "Funny & Dat Cool stuff" album on my computer. (YES. That is the actual name of a picture album in my computer. Don't judge, we are all friends here!)

Here are just a few, more than you'd like to see  some of my favorites.

 I imagine that his name is Fonzie. It makes this picture thaaaaat much better.

 A gem from here. Maybe if I focused like him these finals wouldn't be so tough.

 My face on every single rollercoaster.

 If my son brought his school picture back and he looked like this, I would be so unbelievably happy. You.don't.even.know. 

 

 Reason #47 as to why the brim goes in the front.

 Cannibalism is always funny;especially when a cutie like this does it.

 Looking into my soul.

Apparently they aren't too big of fans, either...

Learn some manners Aragon, gosh!

Seriously, R-Patz. You ain't foolin' nobody!

My wish, for all of you.

My life would be complete if they ceased to make music. Seriously.

 Amen, amen sister.

 My relflexes are at all time highs when this comes on. I don't think I ever move as fast as i do when i see this.

 Poor thing....

Obviously this teacher has NO SENSE OF HUMOR! C'mon now. Lighten up sista!

 So much more enjoyable when said in a high pitched voice.

 I've yet to see an attractive pre-sneeze face.

 I only wish to be as fierce as him. One day... One day.

 It's crazy to see how much a girl can change...

 Seriously Rachel McAdams? You are SO UNGRATEFUL!

Gets me every time!

This is Harry's world and we are all just living in it!

They aren't so scary after all!

OKAY. I'M FINISHED.

If you didn't laugh at those there is no way we could ever get along!

I'm serious.

If you are in need of a good laugh, just go here. I get a little slap-happy and post more than I should....

 No need to thank me. You're laughs are more than sufficient!

I Really Should be Studying...

Because this pesky littttttle thing called finals is happening in almost a week...

But we all know how good I am with prioritizing my time 

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahhahaha!

and I was getting awfully tired of looking like this:

this is what American Heritage does to every BYU freshman.

and decided there was much more important and beneficial things that I could be doing.........

Like learning the words to this song:

Guys, this is seriously tough. Take the judgmental tone out of your voice now.  Don't pretend like you didn't just try to keep up with the song.

So go on and join me in the blissful joys of procrastination! (Because you soooooo know you want to!) Maybe once I master Mr. Joel's fast-paced song I will resume my studying.

maaaaayyybbbeee.

Happy Thursday {ed. 3}

There is just so much to feel good about today:

One of my finals is now complete! (Cue the swoooooosh sound effect!) And I feel kind of like this.

 one down, 247 left (or so it feels....)

The weather permitted me to wear short. Yes, you read that correctly... SHORTS! My lower legs have not felt the Utah air in I don't know how long...

I have about 57  396 new art ideas that I must do this summer. I want to make a collage-esque color block such as this:

I absolutely love the over all shabby-chic feel of it.

And I want to recreate this gorgeous piece from James Jean:

Cool, huh?!?! CANNOT WAIT.

Any moment of free time today I have scheduled my entire day around finding time to watch this movie.

It's a classic. Don't hate.

And my mask is finally out of the fiery pits of the kiln and is complete!

 I was inspired by who-knows-what with the shape and Monet's Garden for the glaze coloring.

It's creepy. It.'s eclectic. It's captivating.

I love art, I love all of you.

Happy Thursday :)

Spring Brings General Conference :)

I generally am very fond of weekends. But out of the 52 weekends we get a year, there are only two that make time slow down, make you feel so peaceful, so spiritually full and when Heaven seems to open up to us.

That's right ya'll. I speak of General Conference.

Since my simple, mere words do not have the right to even try to explain what happened this weekend I decided you all can live through it with me through the pictures taken this weekend. Get your scrolling fingers ready lady and gents, there is a lot to catch up on in the life of Em-Dawg (psst, me! That's my hoodrat name, yo.)

 Julie, Shanlee, Sydney and myself started off the weekend right with temple baptisms at the Quirrh (yes, that is it's actual name!) Mountain temple. Which is the gorgeous temple below for those of you who are, how do I put this....... Slow to catch on? KIDDING! kind of....

It's a beaut, huh?

 While we were taking this photo there was a couple who had just gotten married taking pictures! I am so sorry to that happy couple that we stole their thunder with this hot picture! very funny, emily... very funny!

 Friends walking off into eternity? Sure felt like it.

 Looking at the angel Moroni always seems to put it all in perspective.

 Julie and Shanlee sure look good at 6 in the morning. I need pointers... AND FAST!

 It is kind of hard to have a "natural smile" at 6 in the morning when you are so hungry that your stomach begins eating itself... But I think we pulled it off quite nicely. Dontcha think? (you are obligated to say yes because we are friends and if you say no i will roundhouse kick you in the ear. mmkay? thanks!)

 "GUYS! YOU CAN SEE OUR REFLECTIONS IN THE WINDOW! GET THE CAMERA, GET THE CAMERA! HURRY!" Not that we were going anywhere or anything...

 I was reeeeeeaaaaaallllly excited for conference, if you couldn't tell. Do not confuse that face with my scared face... They are oh so similar, yet oh so different.

 I love seeing the temple, even if it is in a reflection... That is just how happy it makes me :)

 Gorgeous Julie just effortlessly strolling whilst I try to photobomb her picture....

 Look at that sacred house. My oh my.... My oh my.

 There is my bud, Moroni again. He always seems to lead me the right way, truly.

 Holiness to the Lord. The House of the Lord.

                           

 Oh you know, just sitting by the reflection pool pondering all of life's many wonders. Wait, is that a camera? Oh hello there dear friend, go on a snap a natural picture of me!

 If you know anything about this spot you would completely understand what I was trying to do.  If you don't then I am sorry for making you uncomfortable by looking at me kiss my invisible, future eternal companion.

 "Oh honey-cakes-sugar-plum-snuckhums-boo-bear , I am so glad that we are together for time and all eternity!" (Me to my future husband)

 GUYS! I am going there, yes there, through there, SOMEDAY!!!!

 "Sydney, would you mind kneeling on the cold floor while you are in a dress and taking a picture of us peacefully looking at the temple? No, take another I don't like this one. ANOTHER ONE! DO IT, NOW!" 

 After the Saturday afternoon session! Tears shed away my makeup... Enjoy the au-natural look inspired by the spirit, dear friends.

 A dream come true, truly.

 Such good friends bring such good weather.

 We bumped into our dear friends from our ward! Aren't they soooooo handsome?!? Devon (left) is going to Mexico on his mission and Paul (right) is going to Argentina! They are going to be superb  missionaries, I just know it :)

 Who the heck is that freak in the middle!?!? Oh wait....

Great friends, great weekend!

The next conference is in 6 months. LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN! 

My oh my, how I love to hear divinely-inspired words.
