Summary

This sums up my life pretty well, right now.

Good thing I LOVE them. and my life.

and I'm in love with this super awkward/amazing picture.

Love, love, love,

Me

Warning: Don't shave (or blog) when angry.

So I've been looking for something to blog about in my boringly average life. And weirdly enough it was something someone said, when I wasn't even there. Its not any gossip, just a very bold statement from a very bold person. And I had my entire shower to think about it. Hence the giant cuts on my leg now.

It comes down to them saying how ridiculous it is that people can simply put BYU on Job applications instead of indicating which one. Because yes BYU Provo graduates are more godly

than BYU-Idaho graduates are.

I love the fact that we are so blessed to have three universities that carry the same high standards and provide a safe and encouraging learning environment for students. But when people begin comparing the three it drives me crazy. Sure if you have attended all three I would love your opinion. But if you haven't then just shut it.

I love my friends more than anything, but decided that BYU-Idaho was a better fit for me. Yes I did apply and not get in the first time, but I feel confident that Idaho is where I'm supposed to get my education. I do wish I could be in Provo with my friends, but that is in fact the only reason I wish I was going there. I have never felt like I wasn't getting the best education available. I loved learning more than I ever have my last semester in Idaho.

So for everyone (and I know probably no one who reads this feels this way) who feels like BYU

provo, is the only God sent school. Sure maybe it is for you, but pushing your opinion on everyone else is a tad bit OUT of CONTROL. And you should probably stop.

Because guess what?! Heavenly Father loves me in Idaho, just as much as he loves your child in Provo.

So hopefully this was enough, because I really really want to go witch out this person. Or make them a cake that says BYFU.

p.s. I totally wrote BYU-IDAHO and BYU- HAWAII on my most recent job apps. Proud of where I have been, and where I am going.

p.p.s I am SO extremely proud of all of my friends attending BYU. I love you!

He is just so cute.

Haha so I realize that when I eventually have children,

they will be like who the heck is this kid. Of course they won't say heck.

Haha But you know I'm sure I can explain that I love them just as much. :)

Also I love these things, this is his Monkey backpack/leash thing. Though I did feel like a crazy mother when he was wearing it. Well job interview today. Hope I don't fail.

Love,

Martha

So after a ridiculously long time span, I finished Eat, Pray, Love today. I went outside with the mission to not come back inside without finishing it. And I did it, despite the small rain drops that ran down my legs, and onto my book. In fact I kind of loved it. I also love this book, its been fun reading just little bits at different points in my life. The book has traveled with me, to the several places I have been in the past 2 years. Great Harvest, my backyard, to the beaches of Laie, to the big Island, home again, then to Rexburg, but my very favorite spot to read is my backyard. So I decided to finish it there.

As I sat out there reading, I looked up and for a brief moment, thought how I needed to change the shutter speed to make the image I was seeing brighter and more vivid. Which is just SAD. I love taking pictures but obviously I need to appreciate my life more without looking at it through my lens.

Yesterday was also my birthday, and I was spoiled! I eat WAY to much food, though all was delicious. I have lots of cupcakes now (thankfully, I also have people willing to help with that problem), I also have more technology than I probably need. I also have an awesome henna tattoo, Alexis is a henna genius! I was also given lots and lots of hugs yesterday from probably the sweetest boy alive. Just holding his little hand makes me feel so loved. I can't wait to have children (and yet I totally can- at the same time).

Also not going to lie turning 19 actually freaks me out a lot more than it excites me. So today I'm wearing a bright pink bow in my hair, in hopes of stay a little girl forever.

Well thank you everyone who made my birthday extra special!

Great BIG Penguin hug.

I love you!

So my title actually has not a whole lot to do with anything. Except its Kristin's Birthday today. She turns 20, so Happy Birthday my little Poly. We had some great times in Hawaii, and now whenever I listen to that song I think of her and me trying to do it. (Its harder than it sounds) haha. But the video is pretty awesome. Okay favorite memories of Kristin (not that she is dead or anything). "He thinks he is Jesus", Mud sliding, Dance Party, I do everything for Narnia, "Not you babe, Martha"!!!! haha Love that girl.

Anyways I didn't actually have a purpose for blogging. I just felt like it would be a good idea. My Ipod is slowly dying, I think its from old age. So I'm considering making all the same play lists on my computer, because my play lists are like my life. And I hate actually looking up artist, and having to pick individual songs. And thanks to Zach all of mine got deleted off my computer (jk Zach thanks for fixing my computer). Also my computer is dying/ just super slow. And I had a virus scare, and almost cried. haha So this week I have realized how much I love my technology. I actually don't want a new Ipod, I love mine. I also don't really want an new computer, this one is great. And realistically I don't really want a new cell phone either. It is a perfect size, color, and I have learned how to text "quickly" for me at least. But now it looks like I need to get new stuff. Which I also can't afford. Not to mention I may need new brakes, my father said he didn't notice it when he was driving. So I'm just going to ignore it. Mainly because I can't afford to get my brake pads replaces, go to school, and get a new Ipod, computer, and cell phone. True brake pads do seem like they are the most important purchase, but also my car is going to die soon anyways, and I'll have to get a new one. Okay so basically this blog was a compete waste, haha sorry all those who just read it.

Highlight of the week: Meeting Keegan's EXTREMELY good looking friend. Yum :)

Lots of love,

Martha
