I love shoes and long weekends

   So I really like shoes. Lately I've been really into Toms. They're cute and comfy, not to mention their charitable nature. For every pair you buy they send a pair to someone in need. Which is pretty nifty. I want to get 3 different pairs right now but unfortunately have no money laying around. Which is fine. It just means I have to put off looking stylish for the time being. I'm super excited because this upcoming weekend is Presidents Day weekend which means I HAVE NO SCHOOL ON MONDAY!!!! I probably wont do anything exciting this weekend but at least it'll be a short week and a nice break from tests and other schooly things. Well I'm going to go to a floor activity for my hall.

I'm a Hunger Games Fan

    Okay so I cannot wait for the Hunger Games movie to come out. It took me awhile to read the book. I'd seen it around and heard really good things about it from everyone but never thought about reading it for myself. When I was home for christmas break I saw it laying down in my sisters room and thought I'd see what all the fuss was about. I could not put it down it was sooo good! And now I am super stoked for the movie! I even found out what district I'm in on Facebook! Other than talking about my Hunger Games excitement I really have nothing else to share today. Except for maybe a haiku!!


          a dollar can go
          along way but it's not more 
          powerful than love. 


    That was my haiku for yesterday. The prompt was to write something about a dollar and I did. I also though since it was Valentines Day that I ought to throw something in about love. Well until next time!

A Solid Year and A Half in School

   Third semester at BYU and things are getting hectic. I realized today that I have been in school for over a year. I don't know if it is quite a year and a half yet but still… I need a break! I really like school but my brain is starting to have more farts than bursts of genius. This semester I think my favorite class is Greek & Roman Mythology (CLCV 241). It's really interesting and sometimes the discussions are really entertaining. My second favorite class would have to be the Cultural History of Medicinal Plants (PWS 101). It is by far the most useful class I am taking this semester! It's funny how things all relate to each other somehow. Recently I've noticed things from one class being discussed in another ( whether it is important to that subject or not).
    I started this creativity journal and it gives me a prompt for creative projects to do everyday. So far the artsy stuff has been not super awesome ( as in you probably will never find it in a museum), but it's good in the sense that it gives me something fun to do everyday to escape from the clutches of Homework, an evil monster. And along with that I've been doing a Haiku-A-Day. None of those are very good either but they are kinda sorta fun to read. So for anyone whose out there to have a reason to read this other than to be mystified by the meanings of my ramblings, here you go:
        Never given a
        chance to do all that I could;
        The dominant wins.
   The prompt for this one was working with your non-dominant hand (which just so happens to be my left). Well true to college student nature I've stayed up way longer than I should've. So, sadly, I must go!
