Oh ya....

a darling boy bought me lunch today.

It made me very happy.

Today....

was a LOVELY day. Despite the sporadic showers where it pours for five minutes at a time. But those bring the best rainbows.

When I see those I am overwhelmed by how blessed I am! I feel so lucky to be here. BYU-Hawaii really is Heaven on earth. When I drive to school, sun shining down in my little jeep usually listening to some Taylor Swift or Miley Cyrus and I see that bright aqua blue water with waves crashing less than 10 feet away or when I see all of the flags around the little circle as I drive up to campus I honestly feel so happy its hard to put into words. I am so blessed.

Heavenly Father just knew that this would be the most perfect place on earth he could possibly send me and I am so glad he did.

Lately I've been stressing a little about the idea that at some point there must be an end and I will have to leave this Island.

I know it seems like its a little premature to stress about that now but I cant help it! I love it here so much and I can't imagine leaving. But Ive just decided that I need to have faith that If I am listening to the spirit Heavenly Father will make sure I am wherever will make me the happiest.

OH AND BY THE WAY!!!!

I'm so excited! I found my Halloween costume. I cant tell you what it is yet... but its awesome. I LOVE it!!

Just to share...

because I believe that sharing is caring, I wanted to share my all time favorite quote and personal mantra. If I had to choose words to live by it would be these ones for sure!!

That was penned by one of my favorites, Ralph Waldo Emerson. I think the idea of just living your life as happy as it can be and literally embracing every day for the beauty and wonder it holds is the raddest outlook to keep!

Today I...

Went and layed in the sunshine at Rockies....

Took pictures of Andy surfing. Ill post em later.

Went my girls soccer game.

Took more pictures.

Then I watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

OH MY GOSH I forgot how amazing Harry Potter is.

Iconic...

Carly Simon. honestly, for me shes it. she is all kinds of wonderful.

She is in the same category as these two. and I LOVE those two. They define iconic.

So if you know me at all you know I LOVE GOLDFISH. They are very very delicious and an essential part if my daily diet. So the other day I was enjoying a a box of gold fish and I noticed on the side of the box there was this cute little profile on the side about Finn the Goldfish. It had a picture and said his nickname and favorite quote and his accomplishments. I started thinking if I had a profile on a Goldfish Box what would mine say? Then I realized...

I HAVE NO ACCOMPLISHMENTS! Like I don't even know what I could write on that section. I need to do something. Im not sure what but I need to accomplish something. Maybe I'll start a non-profit this week. That would be a good accomplishment.

Its not that I dont do anything. Im actually really busy. I love school and my job at the elementary school and all of the clubs and leadership stuff Im involved with at school. I love to take pictures and create anything. But I wouldnt really call any of those accomplishment. Hmmm. I need to get to work I suppose.

Mine...

I just love that darling Taylor Swift. This is too cute and just makes me wanna fall in love. If one day I meet someone and my life is half as adorable as this I'd be happy.
