i'll tell you this:

another version of "in my head" to help catch up on the last week or so:


-my laptop finally had its last day. the backlight would no longer come on, and that made it extremely difficult to do anything on it. Luckily i was able to see just enough to get my documents onto a flash drive so i could use the school computers to finish finals week. but i'll tell you this: it was a pain.

-my good friend rashad has been trying to get UVU to put up a palestinian flag in their hall of flags, since they claim that there is a flag representing where every student it from... i took some photos for his for the paper.. and i'll tell you.. that's legit!!

-finals over. NAILED my exit interview of the early childhood program. praying that i passed biology. and saying goodbye to UVU.. maybe for forever.

-i have my own fix it felix! and i'll tell you this: i'm so glad i didn't have to spend a boat load of money and have someone at the store fix it. Thanks chancer:)

-my baby brother is going to NORWAY on his mission! he leaves aug. 21. and i will tell you..... how bitter sweet it is. im so proud of mckay, but im going to miss him like CRAZY.

-im so excited to teach preschool. and i'll tell you, i was so sad to say goodbye to the preschoolers of orem elementary. they sure brightened my days!

-i moved back home to sandy. who knew i had so much stuff?... and i will tell you... i'm not so happy about it. don't get me wrong, im excited to have another summer with mckay before he leaves for his mission. for real. i love him:) however... my life is kind of in orem now.
here's to long(ish) distance! whoohoo..

-may has begun which means a whole lot of birthdays around here! and ill tell you this, a candle over facetime is just as heart felt as one in person.. and speaking of candles, mom asked me to use my artistic ability... so i did. and everyone loved it.

-it was a weekend full of photography for me! and i will tell you this, photographing weddings and couples are probably my favorite thing! a little nerve wracking for my first wedding shoot, but i feel like it was successful. and i was so lucky to have my cousin nicole there to help me, since she actually acted like she knew what she was doing.. haha great first experience! and a thanks to steph and steve who did a couples shoot for me.. what a darling couple!

-i've been home for about a week now. and i will tell you: im bored. mckay is at school all day. i haven't started my job yet. (oh yeah, did i mention i got a job at a preschool?! YES!!!) all my friends are on missions... or at school. that leaves one pretty lonely aub. :(

-and for random's sake: maybe im not completely sure who i will marry one day, but i will tell you.... i am STOKED to get married. like way excited. like i kinda wish i could just fast forward...

then again. life is good now. so i'll wait for my time. :)
