dr. quinn
So, I know. this is sooooo old school, but I have started watching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman again. It was a show that I watched with my parents as a kid! And it just made me feel like a little kid! And then I fell in love with Sully all over again! It's such an addicting TV show!

Indiana Jones
Ok, so I am easily entertained and quite enjoyed it. At one point in the movie, my hands were covering my mouth--it was gross! Eek. And I looked over at my two friends and we were all in the same position trying to deal with the suspense. However, the last half hour of the movie I could have done without. So bizarre! So disappointing! So sad! It was good to see Harrison Ford though as Indiana Jones. No one else could have pulled it off. And I love that they got the same woman to cast as his first love. That was cool. Anyways, I advise people to go and enjoy it. And maybe leave before it ends. =D On the other hand, maybe you should just go home and watch the first three. They are classic. And it is gauranteed that they are amazing.

1010
I'm still not really sure what this score actually entails...considering even after research, I'm still not smart enough to figure out what the highest score on the GRE actually is! And this score is without the two essays being graded. Hmm.... I guess we'll find out. A few friends said that it was a good score. So I'm hoping it is! I think it's just like the SAT where the highest score is a 1600....which means that a 1010 is....ok I guess. LOL. Good thing I'm taking the GRE again!

hymnal
This is an email that was forwarded to me. I liked it.
"Glancing through the hymnal last Sunday I noted that as sisters in Zion, we who are called to serve are all enlisted to go marching, marching forward because the world has need of willing men to all press on scattering sunshine. We wonder if we have done any good in the world today because we have been given much and want to do what is right, keep the commandments, press forward with the Saints, choose the right, and put our shoulders to the wheel going where He wants us to go. However, as the morning breaks high on the mountain top, truth reflects upon our senses, and while we still believe that sweet is the work, we also realize that we have work enough to do ere the sun goes down. And thus we ask Thee ere we part, where can we turn for peace?"

jiggity-jig
home again home again. my few days at home were absolutely amazing. I was sooo busy the whole time I felt like I never got a chance to actually sleep!
The night we got there, we went to my little brother's baseball game. He is such a good pitcher! And it was fun to see my dad coaching his team as well.
Wednesday when my sister and her companion went to the temple to do a session, my cousin Jackie and I went to the J. Paul Getty museum in LA and saw some Van Gogh and Monet and the beautiful gardens they have. We went out to dinner in Westwood with my grandparents and then went to see Wicked! It was absolutely amazing! Granted, I felt like they didn't have the same voices as what I'm used to listening to (ie Kristin Chenowith) but they were still amazing!--except for the guy who played Fiyero. He really didn't have a good voice at all! Sad huh? But it was fun to be in Hollywood for the night.
Friday we woke up early and went to Disneyland. But because we were up late the night before, we were all quite tired by late afternoon. However, we pushed on until about 7 (when I finally said that I couldn't walk anymore. I was so tired, I let my sister drive home instead of me). We got home and I got to see Deveny!! Yay! We had chocolate chip cookies and then Annaleis (Sarah's former companion) gave me the best foot massage I've ever had--so great after walking around Disneyland for a good 10 hours.
Saturday we slept in and then went to the beach for a few hours and then came home and prepared for a small BBQ with my old Bishop and his wife, and Deveny and Luke. It was good food and we played games and enjoyed each other's company.
Sunday was Mother's Day and it was so much fun to be able to be with her! She was able to sleep in (especially since church didn't start until 1pm). So we woke her up at 8am after having slaved in the kitchen. =D We made her crepes for breakfast and then after she got ready, we walked her into the office. We had made her a short little video for our Mother's Day gift. It was quite lame, but she enjoyed it and laughed a lot. We each were videotaped telling mom why we love her. My 10 year old brother just say, "I love you this much" and showed with his hands spread out as far as he could go. And then there were just a lot of pictures put together in slide fashion with music put to it. All the pictures were of Mom with each of us and then all of us together. So it was kind of fun. i miss my mom already. We spent Mother's Day evening at my grandparent's house in LA where the men prepared dinner. It was quite yummy (Costco Lasagna and store-bought garlic bread and pies). =D My Uncle Kent made the BEST salad though.
Monday morning we left very early so that we could hopefully get Jackie to her class on time at 4pm. It was a long drive but we made it--even with a stop in Kanosh UT where we inhaled a quick lunch.
All in all, I absolutely loved the trip and wish I was back there already! But I'm still glad to be home--where I found that we are getting 3 new roommates instead of 1! So it's a full apartment again! Yeah! Back to life!

petit fours
So for my roommate's bridal shower, I have attempted the impossible! I made petit fours! Granted, this isn't a picture of the ones that I made and by far, they are not as perfect. But I had so much fun and they still look really cute. Petit fours are basically bite-size individually frosted cakes. I got home from work last night at 10pm and didn't finish until about 3am. Whew. I am tiiiiired. But they are sooo cute! I'm so proud!
