Rocky Mountain High

I went to Colorado once to visit some of my favorite people. We had so much fun. 


 We had all sorts of adventures. We went to the Red Rock Amphitheater where we walked up hundreds of stairs and watched people work out. We ate lots of delicious food. We went to the zoo, we ate more food, we went to different malls and stores, we played and watched tv, we went on a hike, saw the Denver temple, went to a movie, ate more delicious food and we even got to tour a Candy Factory. I'm so glad that I got a chance to visit my sister and her awesome family in their new home, and I can't wait to hang out with them again. My favorite thing about Colorado you ask? Just 4 of my very favorite people.


Before Rai got used to me this is how he stared at me. We became friends pretty quickly because I gave him food. 


Tracen loves animals, the most exciting ones at the zoo? Probably Geese according to him. 
He walks around places like Papahashi, he walks and stops randomly.

We got to see the beautiful temple. 


And Below is a slightly random, kind of organized compilation of pictures. 


Back when Rai wasn't so sure about me.

We walked up all of these stairs. 




One of the view on the hike that never ended, so we ended it.

We built this out of lego for fun.

All aboard the Hammond's express!!!

I just really liked this store and the amount of effort that went into developing their visual identity.


Watching the oompa loompas.

"I want a goose that lays golden eggs"

That's Lucy and Ethel back there, sorry the focus is a bit off. 

These are chocolates that Alana and I made after we made the lego temple.

I love Candy.


For real though, I am so glad that I got to go hang out with my awesome, cool sister and her cool family. I had so much fun and we went on so many fun cool adventures. We got to see an elephant have a bath/shower, we got to watch penguins eat, we got to hike stairs and climb every mountain, and we got free candy, and we ate delicious food and I had so much fun being with them. Utah sure isn't the same without them here.

    I didn't even see this before I updated my blog. Your pictures are better than mine, and it actually made me tear up. We miss you and hope to see you (and Chet) soon! I want to steal all these pictures.

And We Shall See

So this one time I applied to the Media Arts program at BYU. I remember it like it was a reminisce. I procrastinated a little too much and stressed a little too much, but I managed to finish printing all my papers and everything for it the morning of right before it was time to leave. I'm pretty impressive, I know. Don't ask how i magically managed that, but it happened. I sighed a sigh of relief when I handed my 4 manila (they HAD to be manila, any other color is blasphemy) folders with my DVDs featuring this  to the lady at the desk. Then I realized that there would be an ensuing interview in the next couple of weeks. I knew the questions they would ask me, so that's been lingering in the back of my mind for the past couple of weeks. The morning came... this morning in fact. I spent the previous night picking out my outfit, and stressing some more. I was NERVOUS. like you wouldn't believe. So nervous. So I got up, not as early as I planned (my bed was delicious ...

.2014.

In terms of how years go, 2014 has been pretty rad. It's been a good  great year. It's been busy, fun, hard, exciting, scary, enlightening, beautiful, happy... It's been great. I love school. It's not always easy, but I get to create. I get to use my imagination. I'm so happy.  Watch that video. I love it. This man is wise.  Anyways I get to take a photography class and the assignments have been fun. These are the ones I've turned in so far: Zion's National Park Idaho Harold B Lee Library These are just a taste of the adventures I've have thus far this year. And it's barely February. I think it's looking out to be a fun year, and I couldn't be more stoked.

Decently, Recently

And so it begins. A new semester that is. I have been busy with my classes, new things all about... and then Statistics (hello pure math 20). I am so glad that I have one class that isn't 100% new facts to memorize. I am in a Japanese class, let me tell you... that is hard work. I think the only phrase I actually know is, "wakarimasen," and I get A LOT of use out of that. (It means I don't understand). I am in American Heritage... I'm not American. I am in an international student section, which is rad, but I think all the kids from the other countries just hink Canadians talk a lot, because there is this one girl who just won't stop. Okay, Chatty Cathy, put a lock on it. She's nice though. I am also in a nutrition class with 2 girls from my stake back home, which is RAD! I've been able to spend time with lots of Canadians, which I love. There's nothing like making some chesterfield, garborator, washroom jokes with some people who speak your lan...
