1st Day of School

One of my earliest memories of the first day of school was when I was in 1st grade. We had moved to New Jersey and this was my second school for 1st grade. I didn't know anyone and I felt super strange....

I remember 4 tables put together and all 3 girls at my table had dark hair and brown eyes. One girl, named Nina, was super mean and I didn't like her at all!

My next recollection of my first day of school was in 3rd grade. We had just moved to California from New Jersey and my mom dropped me off.  All the kids were waiting underneath this pavilion until the security guard told them that they could go. I saw a girl I met a church and to my dismay, we had the SAME EXACT SHOES. Now if you know anything about the first day of school, it's always about the outfit. ALWAYS. don't let anyone tell you any different.

Then zooming past all the years, I now sit in the Joseph Smith building on BYU campus on my first day of school. I may have said that it was all about the outfits.... well I am wearing a worn out pair of converse, rolled up jeans and a girly blouse. No makeup and bed hair. Wow, I live up to my comments, don't I?

Well, I start my classes at 10 which is in 50 mins. I can't wait to get back in the swing of things.
I don't think I can convey the dedication that I want to give my academics this semester.
I want to be accountable for my goals so maybe you guys can help me if I write them on my blog!

Goal 1: Quit watching Hulu. Done with all the TV shows. (except for the weekends)
Goal 2: Don't go home for lunch. Pack a lunch the night before and eat in a building on campus.
Goal 3: STUDY STUDY STUDY in the library. NOT at home.
Goal 4: Go to the temple at LEAST once a week.
Goal 5: Plasma. A MUST.
Goal 6: Go to bed at 9 pm.
Goal 7: Have Fun.
Goal 8: Read my scriptures and Pray all day long.
Goal 9: Smile and say hello to people I see on campus.
Goal 10: Keep my mission with me ALWAYS.

Maybe you guys could help me. Keep me accountable. I want to do my best and I want to stay focused.

Thanks for all you guys do. I love posting on my blog and you guys make it worth it!

Growing up

For my ASL class, we have to choose one children's story and sign the characters and summary.

I may have procrastinated this project til today.... and it is kinda due tomorrow...... BUT HEY! YOLO!
No worries, tho, I got it done. :)

But I want to tell you about the story I chose.....
Can you guess which one I picked?
Well, lemme give you a few hints....
1) traditional as traditional can be
2)book and movie form
3) best friends
4) cartoon
5) it involves talking animals
any guesses??? (I think I may have described every childhood story there is out there)
6)"silly old bear"

YUP. That's right folks.

WINNIE THE POOH!

This is my favorite. OF ALL TIMES!

I grew up watching every movie,story, book, tv show, etc imaginable. 

I still watch the movies. seriously.

So first, I had to find which of the MANY stories to pick. It was easy. 

"Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin"

Just signing the summary I wanted to watch the movie! So, I find a link to the movie and watch it. And I remember the songs, the words, the silliness, how much I LOVE piglet. 

He is my FAVORITE! (actually I thought he was a girl when I was little)

I guess I will never grow up..... I wasn't really planning on it anyway ;)

In the wise words of Christopher Robin

"You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."
