Dear Cheeks,

I am sorry you decided to puff up quite big after surgery,

I tried to ice you quickly and continue to.

And only put comfortable food into my buccal cavity so as not to harm your delicate selves.

I didn't go to school or work today so you could just rest,

and it looks like tomorrow will also be out too.

But please get better because I need to go to work,

and I miss smiling, and laughing, and singing.

So I'd really appreciate quick healing.

Thanks.

Yours truly,

The girl you are a part of. 

p.s. I feel that since this picture was taken yesterday it's missing aspects of me from today - like the large red mark under my eye and what feel like even more huge cheeks . . . oh well - it's an adventure right?

Picniking away my time. . .

It's actually become a fun past time  at work for all of us.

Here are my "masterpieces" . . .

really I just don't want to put them on facebook yet

so you get a preview.

Yeah . . . I don't want to run into any of us in the forest.

p.s. thanks friends for letting me borrow pictures from facebook.

p.p.s. I am still getting the hang of it and do NOT know why my eye did that after all the editing was done . . .

Tests:

Today I am thankful for tests that show me how much I have I actually learned in my past classes.

It's great to know that I got things out of them and didn't forget.

Maybe it's too early to say that since I haven't actually taken the test but hey studying is making it look good.

I know that after a post like that I shouldn't be down, especially five minutes after a post like that but I seriously don't get why it's so hard.
to know where I'm going
know what I am doing
know what I want.
Agh!

p.s. in my labelling this post got out of order... oh well!

Crispy Truffle.

Today I tried one of these

Look good?

It was.

I loved the way the chocolate cracked when I bit into it

No good way to describe it really

but it was great.

Shayna said it's like a s'more . . .

I guess so but it's definitely a once in a while treat for me.

Have you had one?

What did you think?

p.s.  I really love sara bareilles' music. The end.

Letter to me

Dear self,

Do you remember how you said at the beginning of the year how you wanted to keep up on homework? And do you also remember how you haven't many times this year only to be SUPER stressed and almost driven crazy? Why have you not learned your lesson?

Stress doesn't have to be.

So please, edit that paper the day you get it back (or at least sooner than the night before it's due again), write that paper for your class project, get your research done, study for that test a little today . . . PLEASE because even though you may not have learned to stay ahead as your goal stated you have learned that stress is no bueno.

Thanks much.

Me.

p.s. it's autumn and you can play tomorrow because you are done today.

Barely Contained.

Oh my goodness I cannot even explain to you how excited I am for this weekend. It can be summed up in two words.

General Conference

and I am beyond words at how giddy I am for it. Here's a clip from one of my favorite talks from last conference to get you excited too.

Oh boy!

I cannot wait!
