The Inch

Did you know there is an actual thing out there called an "Inch." Its the United States standard of measurement  of an inch and they make duplicates of the original and send it out to companies who make rules and such. When I heard this in class today I giggled a bit. And then I really laughed when I heard that after 9/11 they moved it to a secure location so it would not be a target for terrorism.

Imagine: Today on the news it has been reported that the Inch has been blown up by terrorist. Now our world is at an end, for we no longer know how big an inch is.

What a tragedy that would be.

Din Din

I like having dinner with good friends. I love talking with friends. I love friends.

I am grateful for the amazing friends in my life.

Thanks Ash Ash, Ty Ty and Kal Kal for a great night! (and little of Lys Lys)

"The Feather Always Falls Indian Quest Style"

Apparently today was "Native American Day," so naturally we white folks should celebrate it.

To do so you must have the following:

• A drum
• A didgeridoo
• Beer (aka root beer, vanilla creme soda)
• A clear night
• Colored Feathers
• Fantastic Headbands
• Face Paint
• Enjoyable people
• A killer fire
• Indian names for everyone (ie Water Jaguar, Fox Wind, Little boy who runs in corn fields...)
• A true Native American (someone with at least 1/8 of Indian Blood)
• A Tribe Name (ie Quest)
• A Tribe Motto (ie "The Feather Always Falls Indian Quest Style")
• Indian stories, jokes or songs
• A Japanese impersonator (don't ask)

Once you have all of these things then you can celebrate this wonderful Holiday correctly!

Happy Native American Day!

Secrets of Nymh (not really)...

So sometimes I feel special. The place I work at does a lot of stuff for big companies. We've done stuff for NuSkin, Sony, Google, The LDS Church...the list goes on and on.

Right now I'm helping test a site. Until sites are known to the public it is top secret stuff. So this one was this really ________ person named ___________ idea. He came up with it _______ and then he _________. And now we're testing it and I think _______ and ________. I'm excited to see it come out and see how the public likes it.

I will definitely fill you in on those blanks as soon as it is legal to!

P.S. has anyone read the book Secrets of Nymh? Use to be a favorite book of mine when I was younger.

Make-Over

I decided to make-over my blog. I think I went a little crazy...but I like it. What do you think?

I think I might give myself a make-over too...new color of hair, maybe a new hair cut...possibly a new face.

Who knows...I surprise myself these days.

Ode to Summer (the person)

Meet Summer Michelle Brooks. She is one of my BEST friends! I love her so much. Today she turns 19, and I am so darn proud of her. Sometimes I feel like we are sisters, cause we can just get together and be lazy or crazy. We've had many fun memories together. I love that Summer has really become herself around others! I've known the real Summer for a while...and I was just patiently waiting for her to bust it out in front of the whole world! She is amazingly gorgeous, has a great voice, has boys falling for her left and right, can laugh with me at embarrassing moments and makes good salads!

I love you Summer! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

The Library...

Always an experience.

I should be studying, reading and writing a paper, but I'm distracted with people watching. There is a lady on the table next to me that keeps laughing randomly. I have a couple of theories: one she is watching a silent movie and finds it hilarious (she has no head phones on), two she is reading a really funny cartoon online, three she is skyping someone and they are doing a funny dance for her or four she is having a facebook conversation with someone that is just off-the-wall funny!

They say the library is the best place to study....I feel like for me....it is more distracting!

And I think it doesn't help that I have my laptop with me and I can easily get on and blog about this...way to procrastinate Stacy!

P.S. The lady is laughing so hard now and trying to keep it in she is covering her mouth and turning red and taking her glasses off cause she is crying from laughing...how can i study with this type of entertainment around me??

Journal Blog and Happiness

So I started a Journal Blog that only I can see. I have so much more to say on that one, but I'll try and keep up on this one too.

Basically an update on my life: I am happy. I honestly thought it'd take me way longer to say that again, but I realized it was up to me to be happy. I know that I couldn't have gotten through this last summer without the Atonement. It is such an amazing blessing in my life. I like being happy. Being miserable, is just plain miserable. I know God has a plan for me, and that I can never loose Faith in the future.

I have loved this semester so far. I think change has done me good.

Cheers! For being Happy!

Brazil (8)
Israel (8)
Netherlands (7)
Slovakia (7)
Costa Rica (1)
Denmark (1)

Latvia (1)

Who knew I had a following in the Netherlands!

Hello World!

Stats

Has anyone looked at their stats page on blogger? I just did. I have had someone from Canada look at my blog (I'm guessing Jeffery). But its kinda cool...I could see how many people have viewed a certain post, or even my blog today! 

It makes me feel like I'm not just blogging for only me but for the whole Northern American Continent.

So cool.

"The Person Who Lays Here Is The Last Person Who Called Us White Trash"

Yes indeed this is what I found in Ephraim, UT in a legit camper/trailer "home" in the middle of the Mountains. They had a headstone and all. I wish I had my camera so bad.

Got to love Middle of Nowhere, UT.

Answers.

I love Sundays.

I especially love fast Sundays.

Today I went in with a lot of questions on my mind. I was feeling really grateful, but still had things that were weighing me down. Within the opening hymn my answers started to flood in and didn't stop.

I am so grateful for memory. Yesterday I was wishing I did not have one, but today I could not be more grateful for one. Memories are not there for us to long and cling to the past, but are simple reminders that there is even more great things to look forward to and to progress to in this life!

I'm so grateful to be a member of this church, and that I have knowledge that I do. This life simply would not be the same without my testimony.

This semester is going to be great...I just know it.
