I found this way cool website called Poladroid where you can make your digital pictures have that unique Polaroid look. I can't stop playing with it!

  

  

 

I'm Going to Do It, I Promise

I am 50% "Oh no! I'm not ready for this baby to come! I hope he stays inside forever!" and 50% "I can't wait any longer! I don't care what his arrival will complicate, I'm ready now!"

And I'm kind of enjoying the duplicity.

Even though I did not go to class today, I have been crazy productive. The laundry is done, the house is clean, I used a Bath & Body Works gift card online, and I wrote two papers. Plus, I'm having an amazing hair day; I've decided that bigger is better while my belly gets bigger. Anyway, after all of this, I'm still feeling hindered. I have a couple of things that are looming over me, and until I get them done, I'll feel quite a weight on my already weighty frame.

So, that's all I can muster. Just had to tell someone.

An Internet Phenomenon

My friend is soooo interesting that she got two postcards on PostSecret this week. You'll never guess which ones they are!!!

For the Enjoyment of Others

I've placed links to my old blogs on the right column over there. I know I'm not near half as interesting as I think I am, but I'm also not near as modest as I would like to be.

Bigger and Better

So, I've moved over to

An Unfortunate Series of Events

The time has come.

Most recently, many of my posts have been getting spam comments that lead to virus-causing websites.

But I realize that this blog is the target. Not me.

So, I'm moving on from The Big Girl Bed.

I don't know to what, yet, but it will be broadcast when it happens.

Except to those stupid spammers.

I Wanna Be With You

Hey, pals.

This is late notice. And it's after much nagging.

Birthday List

• This cool t-shirt in XL
• A great cookbook like this one
• The only soundtrack that I could listen to over and over
• An adorable bag like this
• Plastic money for this hip place
• Everyone in my life to have an amazing experience.

Yep. I have been wracking my brain for weeks now just to come up with that list. Shows you how content I am with my possessions and my place in life.

That is a Fact, Jack

I'm just coming to grips with my emotional side, I think.

That occurred to me as my pout came out after my French teacher forgot to add me to the class email she sent over the weekend.

Which isn't really that big of a deal.

So, it is all good. Change, baby, change!

As for the birthday, some have requested a list of things that might be obtained in order to present me with a gift close to the 30th of March.

And I'm having a difficult time thinking of something.

Here's why.

All of the things I want this year are intangible. So, here's a list of them, just for example's sake.

1. A baby
2. More episodes of The Office
3. An increase in social gatherings during the week
4. The chill to leave Utah
5. For my teachers to be ultra-generous
   
6. Everyone in my life to have some mind-blowingly happy experience.

Does that help? :)

I'll come up with some more doable things. I promise.

And as today is St. Patrick's Day, Caleb and I will be celebrating our Irish heritage with green lemonade, green pasta roni, green mashed potatoes and green peas. Represent, sucka!
Other than that,

Going, Going, Gone

Yep. Haircut.

Je ne suis qu'une fille

Bonsoir, tout le monde.

Ici, je vais ecriver une petite poste.

J'ai un A dans ma classe de francais.

Aussi, j'ai un nouveau livre qui s'appelle "Twilight."

J'espere qu'il est interessant pour moi.

Je vais le lire ce soir.

100

President Hinckley died today. He has been the president of our church and prophet of the world for most of my remembered life. And now he is with his sweet wife; I hope someday to know such a happy reunion.

This is my 100th post. I have been saving it for something very special.

This is quite special, indeed.

Rock Me Gently

The end of a crazy good week, y'all. School has been treating me like a champ (a smart champ, at that!) and I am liking work as much as ever. Caleb is just a dream and now we're covered for a huge exciting change! Life is so, so, so good.

We Never Learn, Do We

My body does strange things sometimes. Be it the occasional eye twitch or joint cracking, my body is just reliable that way. Therefore, I was not afraid during my bath this evening when I felt like my heart was beating from inside my abdominal area. But it got me to thinking, if there really is a heart beating in my stomach, I had better get out of the bath before I boil it. So, I drained the water and let my tummy stop beating.

I'm doing much better now.

I was asleep by 11 last night. I didn't ring in the New Year, but I do feel thoroughly cleansed from last year; it was messy and grungy. Now I feel at peace and like everything is coming together. And with that, I'll say that my fancy bath bomb I got for Christmas is totally the bomb.

We Never Change, Do We

It's a thrilling thing to look back on the year passing as another one is coming, full throttle. But, for me, it's a bigger event to look back on your life as a whole and to see where it could be heading. I think 2007 has been my best year to date, but I think 2008 has the possibility to surpass the rest.

I'm happier, smarter, more mature, and more willing to accept the consequences for my actions.
Ready to be an adult.

But excited to look back at the fun of yesteryear.

Everything That I'm Thinking

I wish I could be petulant. I wish there was room enough in my life to go on tiny rampages and let everyone else deal with the consequences. If that were the case, I'd have a lot more open enemies, but maybe I'd lose a little perspective, too. And sometimes I wish for that loss of perspective, that void of knowing that the high school politics are just stupid games.

But, there's no room for that. I have to make big girl decisions and take care of my adult life. I get to realize that there is more to me than what I have now. And, I depend on me for my happiness.

I'm going to make the best of my situation. And I'm going to feel bad for anyone else who has decided not to do so.

Last Night, You Told Me Secrets You've Never Told A Soul

Yesterday was a day of being freezing, but ultimately of becoming a person that I want to be.

A Preview of The Snow Shoot

For a class of Caleb's, we had to have a photo shoot. It just so happened that we got our first real snow on the day it was planned. Here are a few that we took that day.

You're Only 16

I just wrote my first 600 words of the Nano because I figure that if I'm not doing my usual work schedule, I may as well do something. It's not the greatest piece of literature ever and it probably won't turn into the 50,000 word monstrosity that Nano asks for, but I at least feel a little accomplished.

Caleb has requested that we have a group photo shoot over the weekend; it will include friends, family and the perfect locale, wherever that may be. I feel like for this huge occasion, I should do something bright and shiny to make myself better, faster, stronger. So...

I wish, I wish, I wish for brown hair. The richer, the better. And some cute bangs.

Decompress, Holly.
