Better

I had a little bit of a freak out earlier. I apologize!
I fixed everything by going to a nice little run in the sunny weather that we are finally having. 

I love this clip!  It's so true. 

Sick, sick, sick!

I'm sick
I'm sick of being depressed
I'm sick of crying all the time
I'm sick of not being good enough
I'm sick of living a life full of constant worry
I'm sick of not having groceries
I'm sick of coming up with stupid excuses not to spend money
I'm sick of trying so hard and not seeing any benefit
I'm sick of people asking "how's life?"
I'm sick of walking around with a fake smile on
I'm sick of admitting that I don't know what my plans are
I'm sick of people asking me if I've found a job
I'm sick of thinking that eventually things will work out
I'm sick of things coming so easily for everyone else
I'm sick of knowing i'm incredibly talented but not being able to show off my abilities
I'm sick of having no reason to be excited for the end of the semester
I'm sick of trying
I'm sick of the lack of confidence that has settled upon me
I'm sick of waking up in the morning happy and by noon wising the day was over

As you can tell things are well in my life. 
You'll get over it and so will I. 
C'est la vie.

Happy Easter To You



There isn't much more I can say regarding Easter and the resurrection of my Savior Jesus Christ.  This is the message that I often play when i'm going through one of life's many trials, it gets me through the hard times.  I know that because of my Savior Jesus Christ that eventually my Sunday will come.  I try to live my life always searching for the Sunday's.  Each day I try to look for the little ways that I have been blessed.  Those small and simple tender mercies mean more to me than one momentous experience. 


I hope all of you are enjoying your Easter Sunday!

Just Couldn't Resist

After posting about The Sweet Tooth Fairy's cupcakes I didn't have the will power not to stop by the store.  I swear, one day i'm going to weight 500lbs because of my lack of will power. *knocks on wood*

So, today I purchased four of their DELICIOUS cupcakes!
Raspberry Lemonade
Strawberry Shortcake
Carrot 
and
Honey Lemon

Oh my goodness mother of pearl.  I just fell in love with the Honey Lemon cupcake!  


Go pay them a visit, I promise you won't regret it!

Best Cupcakes in Town

I pride myself in being a cupcake connaisseur.  I love them!  Sadly it's hard to find a good cupcake... they're tricky little buggers to make. I've found that if you are going to use a boxed cake mix that whipping the egg whites a little helps make the cake fluffy.

One of my favorite things about driving an hour from Logan to Layton is knowing that Layton has the best little cupcake bakery!  They're absolutely wonderfully, sinfully delicious!

The Sweet Tooth Fairy 
located at
2065 North Harris BoulevardSuite A2

Is where it's at!  A cupcake lovers heaven!

They make so many delicious flavors.  You must go on over and try them!  They have a couple other locations in Utah... I'm sure they're just as wonderful.  Check out there website!

I love their Strawberry Shortcake cupcake! Mmmm.

I've heard that their Strawberry or Raspberry Lemonade cupcake is to die for.

Happy Post

Here is my little happy moment of the day.

I walked into the sewing lab today to find my instructor grading the pair of dress pants that I made.  I was really nervous to see my grade because a couple weeks ago she told me that I wasn't going to be able to receive a 100% because the pattern I chose didn't meet all the specifications.

I put my heart and soul into altering those gosh darn dress pants. I completely changed the front zipper and altered the heck out of the pattern... they now fit me like a glove!

Anyway.

She turns to me and says that my pants looked very nice and that I did a wonderful job pressing them.  Then proceeds to tell me that I'm the only one in the class that has received a perfect 100 freaking percent (she didn't say freaking... I did)!  Me, I'm the only one if the class that got a 100.

I rock!

After class was over I was able to go see cutie boy for like five minutes.  Sad that it was only five minutes but i'm happy I got to see him at all.

Dear_______;

Dear "Pretty Cute, Pretty Awesome" Boy;

You came and visited me as I was cleaning up from Walk A Mile In Her Shoes.  You're cute.  You look nice in green and you're smile might just make me melt a little.  Our level of compatibility is unreal.  We text constantly and have never covered the same subject twice.  I feel that you need to ask me on that date we talked about. 

That is all.

Tutorial Numero Uno

I love finding random tutorials online!  It makes my day every time I hope on blogger and someone has a new tutorial and I have all the supplies to make it.  No going to the store for me!

Yesterday I hopped on any found this super cutie idea.

I instantly fell in love and decided that I had to make one of my own... So I did!  You'll have to wait to see pictures because I wore it to the opera last night and people would notice if I wore the same shirt two days in a row.

PS.  If I get one more follower there is going to be an amazing giveaway.  I'm thinking a water color design by none other than Me!

stupid confession

I like sweets
I hate flossing
I have a small mouth and it's hard to fit floss in there when it's attached to my fingers
My dentist thinks I don't know what floss is
The dental hygienist commented that I have healthy gums and must do a good job flossing
I secretly had been flossing three times a day for the week before my dentist appointment
Sometimes you can't fool the dentist

That is all

Blogging Hiatus

I apologize for being MIA for the past little while.  I'm in the process of looking for a new job and the whole thing is turning out to be harder than I originally thought it would be.  I'm sort of worried that when I do find a job that I won't be able to find an apartment and will have added a whole new level of stress to my life. 


I'll be back soon with great posts and exciting news... assuming that something exciting actually happens in my somewhat boring life.
