Day 23-29

This is long, school has taken over my life...
Day 23- You tube video- Maybe you have all seen this video. It is pretty great-although I didn't like it at first, but once I found out he was making money I was was all for it. HERE is the link.

Day 24- Where I Live- Good ol Provo UT. I actually really like it here, although I wouldn't want to spend my whole life here. It is really pretty and we are at most one minute away from either entrace to the freeway at Center Street. We love our apartment and our location!

Day 25- My Day in Great Detail
Well my days just changed with school added to the picture...so here's a little sample.
7:10 Wake up, get ready, eat breakfast
7:30 leave to school
8-11:50 School (oh and did I mention my first class of everyday is 2 hrs. 50 min long!?! shoot me already)
11:50 Leave school, drive to work
12:05-5 or 5:30 Work
5 ish Drive home
The rest of my night varies, I usually eat or fix dinner right when I come home, sometimes work out, do homework, read, sometimes watch tv.
9-10:30 go to bed
Well that was fun.
Day 26- Week in Great Detail
Monday-Thursday See above
Friday- I don't have school on Fridays but I usually have appts. plus I'll be going to the school most fridays anyways(education program=very busy). But then I'll go to work at 12, leave at 5. Friday nights vary-for example, last weekend we went out to eat and then to the byu women's soccer game. We usually do something pretty fun. :)
Saturday- SLEEP IN!! I sometimes ride my bike, clean the house and then just do whatever.
Sunday- Chruch at 8:30- ya you read that right. Sometimes I hate it but most of the time I love it because we are done at 11:30 which is so nice, plus our ward is great! We usually hang out for a little bit and then hang out with Nate's fam and have sunday dinner-always a good time.
And then somewhere during the week I usually see my parents or at least my mom which is always great. Our weeks are usually pretty crazy and we love the weekends!
Day 27-Worst Habit
I'm a procrastinator-no need to go into detail...ha
Day 28-What's in my Handbag/Purse
Can I just say I hate carrying these things around, I have never liked them, no matter how cute they are. I hate always carrying something. But it is pretty much a necessity. I carry my wallet, mint chapstick, mascara(because yes I do my mascara on the way to school in the morning or when I get there-bad I know), glasses, ipod, cell phone, gum, writing utensil, snacks(i always have something to eat in there), and floss(i hate having anything stuck in my teeth). I usually have other junk in there at any given time-like bills or other things.
Day 29- Hopes, Dreams, and Plans for the next 365 Days
I hope I can do good in my first year of the program. I also hope Nate can do well in his school(which I'm sure he will)-at about this time next year he will be taking the LSAT(law school). And I hope we are happy and healthy.

Days 18-22

I will post day 17 tomorrow- I definitely have a few art pieces to show but need to take pics.
Day 18- My Wedding
It is hard to really express what my husband means to me, especially now at this time of our life. I really loved our wedding day it was everything I had ever dreamed of. Very classic in my mind, black and white. Here's just a shot of the room. Day 19- Talent- Playing the piano
Day 20- Hobby
Here are just a few hobbies: Cycling, working out, piano, cooking, reading, dancing.
Day 21- A recipe
Well those of you that read my blog know that I posts recipes occasionally. Right now one of my favorite things to make is a Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie. It is great for a pre or post-workout snack, breakfast, or anytime. I'm slightly addicted.

Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie

1 banana(I slice it and freeze it-I have like 40 bags of bananas in my freezer. ha)

1/8 c. all natural peanut butter(I get this at sunflower market-so yummy)

1/2 c. milk (I do either whole milk or almond milk)

Blend in a blender and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. If anyone of you try it let me know if you like it!

Day 22- A website
I have to go with google on this one. I use it for so many things or for any questions I have, it really is awesome. I think it is kind of neat that most of our generation uses it for so many things. If I don't know something I just think, oh google it. I also love my gmail and my google reader for blogs. It is nice to be able to have most of the blogs I follow in one place and not have to open up a million windows!

Day 12-16

Wow I got behind again.
12- Something OCD about: Germs(washing hands), locking our apartment, bed made.
13- Favorite Outfit: I'm a jeans and t-shirt girl all the way, although I love my workout clothes(weird I know but they are cute) and I like to dress up.
14-Favorite Shoes: It is hard to pick favorites. I really love shoes. But here are 5 that I wear the most often right now minus my running shoes but I love them too. 15- Dream House:
How about an apartment in New York City.. or a beautiful home surrounded by nature... or a sweet pad by the beach... let's be honest though, any where with this view every morning and I'm there.16- Song that makes you cry or nearly cry:
This is really hard because I don't cry too often, but there a few Christmas songs that I just love and sometimes I get emotional. Some days when I am a crier, a lot of songs can do it though.

Days 3 & 4

Favorite TV Shows:
Not a big TV person but I do have a few that I don't usually miss.Pathetic I know-but I've probably only missed two seasons since this show first started. Not sure why I like this show so much but I do.
I also love all sports. NFL season, Jazz games, tennis, golf, playoff baseball, it's all great.
Books:
I love to read. I of course like sappy love novels, sometimes with a little mystery thrown in. I absolutely love this book. Of course I love cycling and Lance is my favorite. But even if it ends up being that he used steroids-he still beat cancer when the odds were so small and he has a great passion for life. I love this fun little series and I really loved the movies too.
