I know it's late, but...

I thought I should do this before I go to bed.


So I got my hair cut!!!! Want a picture??? I know my mom does that's why I am writing this actually, to put the picture up.

I think it looks extremely different, and mom-like. My roommates seem to love it, I just haven't gotten used to it. I had to make that face, I tried taking a different picture before, but my smile was so fake and weird that I just didn't use that picture. I should use it however because that one my hair is cuter in.


See mother, isn't this smile creepy?! I think so. But yes, the haircut is growing on me already. It doesn't go in a pony tail though. :( Sad day. haha. I am going to have to have my hair in either a lot of bobby pins or half up half down most of the time. So much for letting my hair grow up again to donate it. Eh, next time.

Alright, so I am very grateful for my friends and family. I was having a stressful night, and so I was able to talk to my FHE sisters across the lawn and that helped. Soon after, I was able to call my mom and talk to her for quite a long time. I love her. She helps me with so many of my problems, just as mothers should do. I only hope I can be half as great as my mother is to me. I love you mommy. :D Thank you so much for letting me come up here, and for putting me through college. I love you with all my heart and really do miss you. I am so excited for mother's weekend that is coming up. I'm glad that you, Ariel and Kami's mom will be meeting! It will be so awesome, I can just feel it! Well I should be getting to bed, so it was very nice to be able to type this out.


Thank you Ariel, Kami, Alison, A'lyce and Mommy, you help me remember who I am. <3

First Blog Post

Jami,

Your blog has inspired me to keep a blog. I miss everyone terribly, and I wish for everyone to be able to know how my life is going. Since life is so busy, and phone calls and e-mails are not exchanged as frequently as they should be, I think a blog is a nice way to keep in touch. Family and friends can read it which is amazing to me.


So, today so far is a very lethargic day. I did no attend my two classes for I did not have the urge to wake up. This is not good. However it is not a routine thing. (Sorry mommy if you're reading this) I shall be hopping into the shower soon to go take 2 exams for other classes, then I must go grocery shopping. Eggs have been my life since moving up here. I make them about every two days. MMMM Yuuuummy. I need recipes. If anyone has some good ones, send them to me! I love experimenting and cooking. Even though the two meals I have made for my roommates have had some ... I'd say catastrophe happen to them. One evening Ariel, my roommate, and I made a Hispanic meal. She made green enchiladas and I made Spanish rice. Her enchiladas came out great, however the portions of my rice that I happened to get had too much salt in those bites. My roommates claimed it was good, however I think that they are lying. :D


Next meal, was yesterday. Ariel and I were fasting because next week is conference and so when we came home from church we decided we'd make a nice little meal to break our fast. I made chicken with Lawry's seasoning on it with some instant mashed potato's (Idaho potatos!) Ariel made some corn. The meal looked lovely! BUT my mom said to "sprinkle" the Lawry's on it. I drenched it. Once again. TOO MUCH SALT! I had so much on, that I could scrape a layer of it off. It still tasted fabulous... without the Lawry's. Well, with most of it scraped off. While everything was cooking our dorm filled up with a delicious smell, which I was greatfull for, because we have had some problems with a smelly kitchen.


Once again, my fault. When I made the rice a week ago, I only used half an onion. I put the leftover in a bag and put it in my cubboard. Oops. It ended up behind something and started rotting. My fault. We threw it out, and the nasty smell cleared up. But something is starting to smell again. WHAT IS IT?! We've gone to Bath and Body Works and bought a scented air freshener for the living room hoping the smell would go away. But something just won't leave. This makes us clean constantly, which is fine with me, but it is like something in our kitchen just doesn't want to leave us.


This is my first blog. Help me with some recipes. :D I'd love to try them out.




So here are my roommates :D I think this explains all of us very well.
