lately

i can't believe i'm going to say this, but... i'm liking winter in idaho. it hasn't been bad at all. i work a lot. like, a lot. but i'm not even really that mad about it because i finally have money in the bank. i'm so glad i got to go down to provo to spend time with my cousins for christmas. we had lots of christmas pj days, fondue, movies, and shopping. and we made a trip to temple square to see the christmas lights. it was magical.

brent is here and i'm so very glad. i hadn't seen that boy in four months. we're going to jackson hole on sunday and i've got other things to show him around rexburg. it's been so nice not being entirely alone during winter break. unfortunately he's going home on tuesday :(

and can i just say that the weather has been fantastic? it hasn't snowed once and it's been in the 50's all week. gimme more of that. i guess what i'm trying to say is that being stuck in the iceburg won't be so bad this semester. i'm going to concentrate on work, my friends, and being the best version of myself. maybe i'll have enough to find a new hobby. basketweaving anyone?

food coma

did you know that it's scientific fact that most people gain weight in the winter? after all i've eaten the last two days, i'm not even surprised. yesterday at 530, after kelsey and i were finally done for the day (complete with 4 classes and a test for each of us), we decided to celebrate with a $5.99 craigo's buffet. then today we woke up to snow. kelsey decided to skip class, and i didn't have class, so we picked betsy up and proceeded to nom nom on some breakfast at jb's. talk about the ultimate fat day. now we're enjoying our food babies and preparing to snuggle up on our sectional couch and watch movies for the remainder of the day.

i hate snow.
i hate cold.
i hate that today is icky.

but i like that it means a movie day.
and hoodies.
and hot chocolate.
and comfy socks.

so it's okay...
