First and Third

I'll be checking a major thing off of my "Bucket List" this weekend.

To celebrate our one year anniversary, Paul and I are driving down to to watch my FAVORITE COMEDIAN OF ALL TIME:

Now keep in mind...We'll be doing that the DAY after we see my THIRD favorite comedian

This is going to be the funniest weekend of my life.

2012

I've always hated New Years Resolutions. I've always thought that it was a terrible way to start off a year... setting a goal that you only superficially care about... and yet you beat yourself up in mid march because you for whatever reason you didn't keep up to the unreasonable plan you had. But this year I caved. I decided I need to make some...goals? changes? resolutions? whatever. It doesn't matter what you call them, they all mean the same thing: in 2011 I wasn't someone I was ultra proud to be. Not because I was a bad person. But I was lacking.

Now I wish I could make some goals that were going to make me this great person, but no single goal can repair this big of a mess. So... baby steps right? Make small tweaks that will hopefully have a domino effect... (hope....)

So here they are. My goals. My Tweaks. My New Year Resolutions.

(In no order particular order)

Spend More Time With Levi Douglas.

Continue to Get to Know and Love Paul David.

Tape this Picture in a Notebook and Write About it. Continually Adding to the Journal.

Build Credit.

Pray on My Knees.

Do More Yoga

Study More Effectively.

Continue Attending the Temple... but More.

Schedule My Time Better. (This is going to be the biggest Domino effect)

Use My Passport for Traveling Purposes, or at Least the Ball Rolling for a Chance to.

Wish me Luck.

Birthday Week, Christmas Tree, and a Lady

POST COMING SOON!!

Chick Flick

I don't have chick flicks.

I don't like them.

(Titanic, Somewhere in Time, and Moulin Rouge don't count.... those are great films.)

So while this normally isn't a problem.... because normally when I put in a movie its to enjoy a good movie, not to cry.... it's bad when I want to cry.

SOLUTION!!! : Will Smith starred in a kick-a-freakin-good film...... that has a scene that WITHOUT FAIL.... I SOB during.

Ladies and Gentlemen... I present to you... the closest thing I have to a chick flick

PMS

I have so many things to blog about....

My Birthday, The wonderful thing Paul did for a Lady at work, and Christmas so far.

I also want to blog about how so many people are miss using strong characterizing words, how much I secretly hate this time of year but I try an exhausting amount to like it, how much I wanna slap people who bring up marriage, or how much every single person over the last four-five days has bugged me as well as strongly hurt my feelings.

So I looked at a calendar.... yuuup. Here I am. Anyone else get worse symptoms during the winter? Or do I have full potential for this just to be me? I get angry cause "everyone is stupid" then I cry (literally... tears) because I don't believe that, so I resolve to be nicer to the next person I see........ then........ they open their mouths and there goes my goal.

March-October are NEVER this bad.

I HAVE INCREDIBLE NEWS!!!

(really.... I'm stupid excited)

this guy: is coming here: On this day: I'm at least this excited: The only way it could be better is if it was This guy:

And I was going with This Girl:

All Hallows Eve

I absolutely LOVE Halloween.

I think I got it from mia mother. You see, she always wanted to be an actress, but never was, so instead Halloween was her day to shine. She could play the part of whatever role she wanted all day. I'm the same way. Cept with dance. Either way, Halloween is my day to be whatever I want to be.

I took it easy this year. Like... really easy. But as I drove home last night, I realized... I didn't hate "toning it down." I'll explain more in a bit, for now though, simply enjoy a few pictures.

This is the love of my life dressing up as a T-Rex.

Crazy how the two men I'm in love with (my little cousin and boyfriend) love dinosaurs. These are Paul's pumpkins.

Jurassic Park

Man Hanging And his yearly "Jack"

Now here are mine! This was my first year doing a happy, normal Jack-Lantern Face

My yearly "sinnister" pumpkin

And the one I do EVERY year and think its hilarious every time....

"Pumpkin Pi"

Alright, back to what I was saying earlier, normally I dress up big time, and party like it's 1999. This year... I carved 5 pumpkins, wore a jazz jersey, ate soup, did Frightmares, went to my yearly Thriller dance production, and watched mildly scary movies throughout the whole month.

I didn't go to a million dance parties. I didn't go to a haunted house. I didn't watch a "pee your pants scary" movie. I didn't stay out till 2 am. I didn't spend 4 hours on a single pumpkin. I didn't have a crazy costume.

While I wish I would have gone dancing at least once, and I really should have been a ninja turtle again... I was strangely happy last night while I drove home from Paul's house. Maybe we're getting the hang of this "compromising" thing. Maybe I'm getting soft in my old age. Whatever it is... I had a calm, quite Halloween.
