Spring Has Sprung!


So it finally feels like spring in Provo. There have been a few sporadic nice days, but it's been consistently warm out lately so I feel like spring is here to stay. I really hope there is no more snow until winter, but it is Utah so there are no guarantees.


It was my last day attending the BYU 232nd Ward and not just because it was the last Sunday of the semester. They have reorganized boundaries and changed names. Now all the student wards are called Young Single Adult Wards. I now belong to the Provo, Utah Young Single Adult 250th Ward. Isn't that a mouthful? My first though was how to put that on a tithing slip. Today after church Ally and I went on a short walk because we just didn't want to be inside. I love looking at all the trees that are covered in blossoms and seeing all the pretty flowers popping up everywhere. Another thing I'm loving is having the windows open! It's such a small thing, but it brings me joy. I was reading more conference talks while laying on my bed and the breeze felt heavenly. Seriously, I'm loving it it like no other. I'm really not cut out to live in a place that has as much snow as Utah.

I don't have nice curtains that move in the breeze, I have plastic blinds.  I find the
sound they make when they move surprisingly nice instead of annoying.

Another thing that has made me happy recently is that my Scentsy warmer is working again! I finally ordered a new light bulb. It's been out of commission since October, so I'm glad to have it finally filling making room smell good once again. Not that my room smells bad without it.

Other random things that don't have to do with Spring:
-Rylee's brother texted her the other day saying he liked my blog. I don't know him. He Googled her name and my blog popped up. Apparently he liked what I had to say regarding Rylee. Hearing this actually made my day. I just love when people read my blog.
-Yesterday was the five year anniversary since I was confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Woo-hoo! It was nice to reminisce about what a time that was since it took so long for me to get to that point. Being LDS had made such a huge difference in my life. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Not that I'm saying anything about people that get baptized at eight, but I like how I was older. I mean I would have at eight if I could have, but because I was older I feel as if I appreciate it more. I understood everything and I can remember that day pretty clearly.
-Ally and I are planning on dyeing eggs the day after Easter because we want to do it with other people, but it's a bad week with finals and moving. We decided to do it that Monday and maybe invite some new boys that move in to join us.
-I figured out why that Asian celebrity post has gotten so many views (it's gotten 371 since I wrote it and has helped my total page views to reach over a thousand). The pictures I used are really good ones and a lot of girls have the same taste as I do. The pictures I used are one of the first to come up when they are searched on Google, so the page views are just going to keep going up. I'd like to believe that maybe one or two out of the hundreds that look at my blog for the pictures might actually read the post too. It's wishful thinking, I know. But a girl can dream.

The best random thing that makes me happy is that this is my 100th blog post!! I've put a lot of thought and time into my blog and I'm glad it's been successful (even though it's not famous or read by tons of people).
