My bindery family

My roommates have real homed up da the place... I came home from utah this weekend. Quotes on the wall, pictures....I decided I need to add my personal touch. I hate to admit because I try to be the best girl I can be.. but I IS NOT crafty... nor do I have pictures or temples or inspirational quotes lying around like I should! I was really wanting to add something, but I couldn't figure out what! I was walking out of my room when it hit me!!!! January is over and there was a BEAUTIFUL family picture from the bindery calendar! Of course, we needed some family pictures up there! I can now say that I can contributed!!! Plus I think we look so much homer with a picture of the bindery crew hanging on the wall!

Things that make me smile:

Why I shouldn't be put in charge of nursery

Cop pulling over school bus.. (story behind that one)

Kiwi Loco and Morgan! :)

Family picture... successful ruined.

My dumb cat

Your true colors

Social dynamics are the same everywhere even a tiny college run town like Rexburg. You have the rich kids, you have the middle class kids, and you have the poor kids. Yesterday, I had a slight boot problem as you can see from the featured picture. I didn't think much of my taped up boot until I was in a fancier place, then it hit me... I'm trash. haha! Next time, I won't wear my taped up boots to a '5' star apartment complex.. haha. You live and you learn. :)

You look trashy

 A few days ago I learned about the 'art' of trash bagging! My friend Captain Morgan took some friends and me. Basically what you do is get a HUGE black trash bags and then have the smallest person get inside the bag and you cut holes for the feet and make small eye holes. Then you tie the top of the bag. The person goes and sits outside a door and literally looks like a bag of trash. I must this is one time when saying "you look trashy" is a compliment. So, when that person is all set you have another person ring the door bell/knock on the door. And run away. The people in the apartment come out and see a 'bag of trash', and the bag of trash proceeds to jump up and scary the crap out of them. It's pretty fun! I highly recommend it!

and they call it puppy love

This is my new Switchblade. I call him 'switch'!  I knew it was going to be love at first sight! :) Then I pushed the button the side and the blade flipped out and I'm not lie it was the COOLEST thing ever. It's already been VERY useful. I don't have to struggle to open packages or deal with those annoying fraying strings you get sometimes. 

Things I hope are invented soon:

1) 'Heated' coats/zip hoodies: I have one of those plug-in heated blankets.. it's changed my life. :) I left it at school and I am really missing it right now. Thank goodness I'll be flying out to west coast in a few days and can be reunited with it! I am waiting anxiously for the day that they have a heated coats. They really wouldn't be that hard to make; just run wires through the coat and instead of a plug-in have a removable re-chargeable battery. PLEASE someone come out with some fashionable heated coats ans zippys soon! I'll be happy to test them for you. 

2) Smell changing shampoo: This one isn't as easy to make. When I was younger we always seemed to have tons of different shampoos in the bathroom. I would always mix them because I would get tired of the same smell. But, I am not sure how one could make just one bottle change smells. Sigh!

Dex

I have in this past year seen two of the worst movies EVER: 'Something Borrowed' and 'One Day'. Seriously, both of these movies just made me mad! They didn't have a point. They are the kind of movies that you keep watching in hopes that something will actually happen and then they come to an end and you're like 'WHAT?!'. I realized in both of these movies one of the main characters in the story had the name 'Dex/Dexter'. So my conclusions are: 1) !f the movie has a main character named Dex or Dexter TURN IT OFF! There is a 95 percent chance the movie is bad. AND 2) Dex was a popular name this year. 

(This is nothing against the name Dex or Dexter... this is about the way that name shouldn't be used in movies... I think it's perfectly fine name in the 'real world')
