A Few of Life's Lessons

Throughout my years, there have been a few boys in my life. Some I have dated, some are just friends, and some are somewhere in between. Looking back, I have learned a thing or two from these guys and I thought I would share.

1. Lord of the Rings is a poor choice if it takes you the whole movie to hold a girl's hand.
2. Friend's brothers are a bad idea.
3. The first time I realized I was the prettiest, the smartest and the best.
4. Drive in movies are the best.
5. Peanut butter fights are the best way to get someone to forgive you. No one can stay mad at you after smearing a handful of peanut butter in your hair.
6. You can kiss a guy days after meeting him.
7. Even if explicitly tell a guy you aren't dating, he doesn't always believe you.
8. I am not smooth.
9. Boys can be just as girly as girls. Sometimes worse.
10. A fling is just a fling.
11. Some flings are more fun than others.
12. Canada is a lot farther than boys think.
13-15. I don't think I learned anything from these ones but it was definitely a good story.
16. There is nothing ok about a frat boy.
17.  Friend's brothers are still a bad idea.
18.  It is impossible not to love me.
19. A few minutes is not enough time for people to fall asleep.
20. No matter how cute a guy is, there is something wrong with someone who is most likely lactose intolerant and drinks copious amounts of milk and then texts you about what a poor choice that was while he is in the bathroom and you are outside waiting for him.
21. Boys do have feelings. Somewhere.
22. Even the most secretive boys can't keep a secret.
23. Don't ever get involved with someone who has no problem just climbing around the chastity wall (that is not a confession of any sort. It's a real wall that only exists at BYU).
24. It only takes a week to fall in love. Apparently.
25. Even goofy looking guys can get a surprisingly large quantity of girls
26. There is something very appealing about Twilight.
27. My blog isn't as great as I thought it was.*




*This is not true. But some boys seem to think it is.

Intern Life

Me: You have to be born a woman in order to go to Wellesley. So if you were born a woman and decided that you identified as a man then you could go. But if you were born a man and identified as a woman then you couldn't go to the all women's college. I think there is something wrong with that. Not that I totally get why you would want to switch genders in the first place but that's just me.

Fellow intern: Have you ever wanted to change genders?

Me: No. Not really.

Fellow intern: You need to go to Thailand.

Me: (quizzical look)

Fellow intern: They get gender changing surgeries all the time there.

Other fellow intern: Ya, but how good is the quality?

Fellow intern: No actually it's great! I've had quite a few surgeries done ....

(interrupted by loud snickering. He never got to finish that sentence.)

A hey look, a wedding...?

So my friend got married this summer in the Oakland temple. Halfway through the couple's photo shoot, we saw this lovely crowd. It was just too good to not be photographed. I had never heard of a Quinceañera before but apparently this is a pretty accurate portrait of what they look like.

My Paper!

I wrote this paper for my writing class this past semester. It was wicked fun to work on and I am really happy with how it came out. Anyway, you should read it, even though it is really long.
