a thanksgiving miracle.

hello. my name is jane and i'd like to state that i am seriously burnt out.
why you say? because of a lovely thing named COLLEGE.
granted, yes. i love it. with all of my being. i have a good life. i love my major. i have good roommates and friends. honestly.
but class is killing me. i am so tired. next week, before thanksgiving break, some brilliant (not) person decided to make tuesday friday instruction. WHY. i don't even know. i was dreading it. i have a class monday wednesday friday at 9 am that i hate with a fiery burning passion in my bosom. i was sure that he wouldn't cancel class that tuesday. and i was sitting in class wishing i could die.
but he cancelled class.
it's a thanksgiving miracle, charlie brown.
hallelujah, praise the Lord.
that is all.

cuteness overload.

I went to the zoo on my way home today to see the zoo's latest addition. This darling little creature doesn't have a name yet, but she is 11 days old and was put on display yesterday.

 She is tiny and wrinkly and perfect!

as if that wasn't enough my mom showed me this today. I died.

A Thought.

dear brownie box,
why do you discourage me from eating your batter?

sincerely,
a rebellious child.

dear education week,
why must you take every parking spot in provo and cause me to be 30+ late to work?
sincerely,
frustrated student employees everywhere.

dear fairy tales,
why must you be so amazing?

sincerely,
a starry eyed romantic.

dear head scarves,
i love you with all my heart, please let me wear you 24/7.

sincerely,
hair obsessed girl.

dear hormones,
leave me be. please.
sincerely,
stressed out of my mind.

sincerely,

Home Free.

sometimes i take classes over spring and summer.
then one day i take finals and i am HOME FREE.
...
well, at least for two and a half weeks until fall semester starts.
but until then,
PARTY AND PARTY AND YAH.

sincerely,

Dear World:

Things that are NOT okay with me:
-spiders. especially when there is no one around to kill them. and they are the size of a loaf of bread.
-ridiculous busy work assignments.
-research papers that don't involve writing papers...what is this?
-crop tees. i think they are weird. don't ask me why. maybe because they look terrible on me.
-sketchy videos shown in class.

Things that ARE okay with me:
-men like neal caffrey. for some reason art thieves are extremely attractive to me. maybe because they love art as much as i do. except i wouldn't go so far as to steal some...
-skinny jeans. a win everytime.
-fresh fruit.
-little sisters that paint your fingernails for you. so so cute.
-a 4 year old little boy chasing a 17 year old girl with a sock monkey while the girl screams. funniest thing i've seen all day.

sincerely,

Feeling a bit patriotic...

Need I say more?
These people blow my mind. They have so much spirit and so much talent and just blow it all out of the water.
I love Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty May Treanor. Not only are they undefeated and stick together through everything, they are both married and make family a huge priority. Kerri brings her kids and husband with her every single time. Misty supports her husband in his football career and she is a great mom to her baby. Blows my mind.
It ALL blows my mind.
In short, I LOVE THE OLYMPICS.

Childhood Dreams.

You know. I have always wanted stop sign red hair. Based off this lady:

I may have been a little obsessed. I still am. Really truly. That hair is superb.
Anyways. Now that I am a big girl I have the opportunity to do an Ariel.
Red goes the hair.

This face is extremely awkward. Excuse it.

Yay for childhood dreams coming true. If only I can figure out a way to pause time, become a mermaid and ice skate, then my childhood will be complete.

Comfort Food

Call me crazy, but this is one of the things that brings me comfort in this world:
Bread and Milk.
First, make homemade bread and then cut it into slices, ripping it into a bowl.

Second, pour milk over the top as if it were cereal.

Third, sprinkle sugar on top.

Fourth, ENJOY :)

Happy happy Jane indeed!
