A tip for finals, and for life:

If you work hard, it will be easy; if you work easy, it will be hard.

Our Christmas and some other things.

My cute roommates, our two favorite (yup, we definitely play favorites) FHE brothers, and I decided a little while ago that for us and our love, December 9th would be Christmas. We have a cute little tree set up and it had lots of fun little presents under it that we got for each other. We made two yummy kinds of soup and ate them all cozy and then opened our presents. I figured out that I could MAKE a cute infinity scarf, so that is what I gave my roommate Aubrey, as well as a manly one for my FHE brother Parker. Here is a picture of Aubrey's, it turned out quite fabulous, I must say! (We love mustard yellow at our house.)
I also made a crocheted headband to match it. 

FUNNIEST story. When Parker unwrapped his present (an infinity scarf) he exclaimed, "An eternity robe!!!!" We aren't letting him live it down. 

I liked my outfit today. I wore the cute denim shirt my good friend Alee gave me for Christmas, and the darling Anthropology belt my roommate Emily gave me. I felt so very spoiled!
Our mirror was dirty when this picture was taken...don't judge.

In case you are wondering, I should definitely be studying for finals right now...this is what happens when I try to do homework in my apartment instead of at the Library.

So...I am really excited to move to Provo. These last couple of weeks have been a teensie tiny bit scary. I won't find out if I am actually accepted to go to school at BYU until February, but I am moving there anyway. It feels kind of like a gamble, even though I know I shouldn't be so worried because I have a high GPA. I just feel like a little bit of a leap of faith is being required of me. But it's ok!!! Everything will work out the way it is supposed to, I just know it!

I also feel so strongly that I need to go there. At first I was planning on just living at home during Winter semester before moving to Provo in the summer, but I just feel so strongly and undeniably pulled to Provo, obviously I don't know why. I am excited for this new adventure!

This was kind of a rambly post, I apologize.

Tonight we had a ward closing dinner/talent show and I sang "Part of Your World." When I sat down afterwards my roommates held up a plastic fork and said I should have used it as my "dinglehopper." Is it weird that I wish I would have?
