One day I stopped watching rated-r movies.
In a moment of weakness I plan on watching these ones: Kickass, Sleepy Hollow (again), Shakespeare in Love, The Life Aquatic, Fargo, A Clockwork Orange, Pulp Fiction, and Lost in Translation.

25 Things
I found this list on a Notes on Facebook. Firstly, I'm not even sure what Notes on Facebook is. And secondovly, I don't even remember putting it together, but alas! earwax, it exists.
1. I still wish I had gotten that letter from Hogwarts. Everytime I blow out the candles I make that same wish.
I don't still wish that at birthday candles & 11:11s. I wish I had a boyfriend.
2. I have to put eye drops in every morning to survive.
Still True - Naphcon A
3. A boy made me cry in 7th grade science class because he made fun of my voice
His name was Steven Weizel or something like that.
4. My 8th grade science teacher told me my voice was so sexy i should do 900 numbers
His name was Mr. Veech or something like that.
5. I have eaten a June Bug just to "be in the cool group"
I was 14
6. I was class clown
I was 18
7. I'm head over heels for my two little brothers
Still half true - paaa just kidding. Still more true that anyone could believe possible.
8. It is completely impossible for me to grow my nails out
I proved this one wrong! For a while at least - they are mere stubs yet again.
9. I broke my leg in high school
I still have the boot I got instead of a cast. I hated it but it healed me.
10. There is a song called "Aubrey" by a group called Bread. And I know every word. Your dad probably has that CD.
I made myself laugh reading the way I wrote this "Your dad probably has that CD"
11. In the 3rd grade Christmas play my character's name was "The Father"
In 7th grade THeater Arts class play my character was the (male) Court Jester
Story of my life?
12. Orange is my favorite color.
Still True
13. I do know every word to the Phantom of the Opera and West Side Story
Still true, and the list now includes Evita, Fiddler on the Roof & Hairspray.
14. I just love SAABs. I don't know why.
indeed
15. I love State Capitol buildings
Still True
16. Dogs never like me. But I will own a Great Dane someday. His name will be Apollo.
I'd forgotten that I even considered that name for a dog... adding that to my list....
17. I was in an Ad for the BYU newspaper every Tuesday and Thursday for 3 weeks. I am still so proud.
and my sister had it on her refrigerator
18. I get annoyed standing in lines
Still SO True
19. Power Pump was the best part about Gold's gym for a while, but than it got to crowded, and now the instructor girl is on bed rest
Now I'm obsessed with Sweaty Yoga at Black Swan Yoga on Monday's with Tyler. For a while it was Body Pump at 24 with Jess and then Spin at 24 with the lady on Saturdays (don't know her name)
20. I love road trips and driving forever and ever
just not short distance driving
21. The NBA is the best thing ever
Kobe specifically
22. In 7th grade I wanted to be number 7 on the volleyball team, but Kelly Loso got it and I still hate her for it. I was number 21 and I ended up liking that number alot. I was never it again though b/c I just suck at getting what I want. In high school i was 15 and it was a good number
Now I'm numberless.
23. I made Varsity my sophomore year.
Obviously this will makes me proud.
24. I ate cow tongue in Argentina this summer
It wasn't that big of a deal.
25. Mallory is the best thing that ever happened to me. Wes is the next best thing.
My Mom, my sister, my nieces, Brittany Anne, Macy G, Shwn, Jenna & Sara Snow are the next best things.
25 New things:
1) Apples & Diet Coke are my greatest obsessions. And yogurt is my sweetest downfall (in any form, normal, frozen, Greek). I often accidently eat apple stickers.
"I wish apples grew on trees" -inside joke with myself
2) Nike is my favorite brand in existence.
"Just do it"
3) I love buying cheap clothes - that fit well and are stylish. It gives me such a thrill.
4) I am not possessive of my music collection like most people my age are.
5) I want to marry Jew.
6) It's hard for me to watch TV that is not on Netflix. The Walking Dead is giving me ulcers.
7) The hardest thing in my life is buying swimsuits that support. It's a charmed life.
8) I've been doing yoga for years and I'm still one of the worst people in the class.
9) I have a thing for men with dark eyebrows.
10) I write in cursive.
11) I'm weirdly obsessed with adoption even though I have no desire to adopt myself, and have no real personal connection to it.
12) I don't get full. Ever.
13) I'm relatively healthy with a strong body but I have weak hands and feet. They cramp very easily and hurt all the time.
14) The smell of coffee makes me weak at the knees.
15) I've not owned a laptop in over 2 yrs.
16) Blonde hair - in my dreams.
17) I'm morally opposed to fake baking.
18) When I get stressed, anxious, emotional, moved, I stroke my collar bone.
19) Quotes get me though the day. Everyday.
"Duh, it's like a famous quote." "From where?" "Cliff's notes."
20) I have no regard for spelling, capitalization, grammar or punctuation.
21) I've always wanted to be Peter Pan for Halloween. But I always drop the ball.
22) I cannot dance. This brings me so much emotional distress.
23) I'm turning 25 this year and this is how I picture a perfect day: breakfast: egg mcmuffin. lunch: cookie cake. dinner: rudys. dessert: pf changs great wall of chocolate.
24) I'm obviously totally messed up that on a perfect day, only food matters.
25) I still don't know Spanish.
1. I still wish I had gotten that letter from Hogwarts. Everytime I blow out the candles I make that same wish.
I don't still wish that at birthday candles & 11:11s. I wish I had a boyfriend.

addendum
more on me "through being cool"
there is no where on earth I'd rather be less then skiing on a mountain
wait- maybe the only place I'd rather be less than that - snowboarding
I'm not cool

Girls With Low Self Esteem
In other words - SPRING BREAK edition.
"They've gone wild. The girls have gone wild." -Mean Girls
I think this may have been my only spring break trip ever.
Started on a Friday, after a work lunch at Sullivans (where I did not eat the chocolate mousse so I would fit into my dress the next day)
Flew to Utah and went right to - where else - CAFE RIO!
Friday night we get back to the hotel. I'm look like an unshowered workman bum - man being the operative word. Then I meet all the Tuellers. The Texas Tuellers are our good family friends but I always hear about their extended family. The cousins, the sisters, the grandparents. I loved them. I loved meeting them and I loved seeing them. It was so much fun to be at this wedding.
Except for I wasn't in the wedding because I still don't have garments. So here is my brother and I being bored outside the Draper Temple.
And then I went back to Provo.
I had a total anxiety attack. It's alot more than I remembered. I was excited to go back. And then I was overwhelmed.
BUT I loved being back with my best girlfriends.
Macy G is such a fabulous hostess.
THEN
BYU
Just like I remembered it. And I have to say - I ran into just the people I wanted to see.
It's like BYU is really trying to convine me it's the right place for me.
And then JENNA!
And then Snow Sports
And more than anything
CAFE RIO
all day errrr day
and I'll Pollo Loco & Maverick Frozen Yogurt (!)

The Drudge Report
If there were a second line to my title, it would be as follows -
The Drudge Report
a love hate relationship
The Drudge Report is so fresh and so clean. It's so user friendly. It's conservative friendly. It has it all. But it makes me fear the world is ending and we're going to be bombed. It makes me wish I'd just stuck to the "what to wear this season" websites.
I need to focus on the real troubles of my life and not the potential for nuclear bombs in Iran:

How Do I Get One of Those Hipster Boys to Date Me
I hate how much I love hipster boys.
I ate my lunch in the courtyard across from my building today. There was a beauiful man with a pony tail and a bike just a few benches away from me. Sigh... How would I ever get him to look my way.
I know not.
Then whilst crossing the street on my way back I spotted yet another biking beauty. But this one was with his girlfriend. And she didn't seem especially hipster-esque. How did she nab him!?
But in other news: the day was outstandingly beautiful and I'm glad I brought a lunch I could eat outdoors.
And in yet even more news: Over the years I've had several roomates say they wish they still lived with me so they could eat what I'm eating. Such a compliment! I eat good food.

Necessary Evil #3
Those stupid strings that hold your dress up from falling off the hanger.
But always hang out of your shirt and make you look crazy.
H&M is the worst about this.
Also, by hanger straps, I don't mean strap hanger: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=strap%20hanger
These things are totally ruining her look.
