Better than Yesterday

Today I turned in those two horrible papers that I wrote yesterday, and as soon as they were out of my binder I felt a huge wave of relief. DONE!!! Now I just have to worry about my mid-term next week... but I do have a few things that made me smile today!

One of my new favorites are these marvelous treats:

Yes, specifically the strawberry ones : ) I wouldn't like to eat a real strawberry, NO THANK YOU. But strawberry Pop-Tarts? Yes Please!!!

Next, I got a letter in the mail today from this place:



Would you like to know what this letter said? Yours truly has made the Dean's List for ASU's College of Teacher Education and Leadership!!! How totally exciting is that?!?! Huge confidence booster right there.

I saved the best for last. I get to visit Mickey tomorrow. Yes, I am going to... (drum roll please)


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So thank you to Pop Tarts, ASU, and Disneyland. Today, you made me smile : )

SONG OF THE DAY

I love this song, I think it is just too cute. And the look of Taylor's face after the girlfriend makes out with the guy in the convertible is just hilarious. Like - "Really? That's just gross..." HAHA! sorry Cassi... you can skip this one and watch the next video : )

I also love this song. This is a total power song and makes me feel all happy and good inside. Listen to this and then apply it to yourself. You can do it all! It totally makes me feel like I can overcome what ever is blocking my way. Brick walls? No Problem : )

***PAUSE THE MUSIC AT THE BOTTOM***

Not the Best Day of My Life

Today was not the happiest of days... It started out absolutely great. I got up and remembered that I don't have to go to my interning site today. Yay! I will actually have time to do my homework! (yes this is a cause to rejoice in my life... time is hard to come by) So I ate breakfast, watched TV with my mom, and biked 8 MILES (!!!!!) on our stationary bike machine thing. Feeling good! I got a shower and finally reconciled myself to the fact that I had to start my homework now. I wrote 5 pages of this obscene paper that is due tomorrow and was feeling pretty good when I got done. Then I went to my e-mail to send it to my teacher and saw that there was a message from my Psych teacher about the Observation Notes assignment that I had COMPLETELY forgotten about. Guess what? Brittain has another three page paper to pull out of the air!!! happy day... So I get half of it written before I go to work. Don't get me wrong, I am SO thankful for my job and realize that I probably could not have a better or more convenient one. I get almost any day off I need and my work schedule almost always works around my school schedule. But often, the thought of going to Deseret Book and helping people find stuff, kind of makes me want to cry... today was one of those days. Until I remembered that I would get to see my two BEST friends today : ) Here they are, so you know what their beautiful faces look like!






So thank you to my Cassies today, they are the ones that made me happy : )

Just...YUMMINESS

The things that have made me very happy for the past week can be found depicted in these pictures:




How does life get any better than #1: CHOCOLATE and #2: PEANUT BUTTER?!?!



These are Skittles... in case you didn't know. These are a very recent obsession for me. My third year at girl's camp I ate so many Skittles in one night that my teeth hurt for two whole days. Ever since then I had been kind of turned off to them. But a couple of weeks ago when my brother and I went to see this AWESOME movie:


...SO good by the way... anyways: when we went to see The Lightning Thief I bought 2 little bags of Skittles and ate them... and was then obsessed and craved them for 2 weeks before I went out and bought a HUGE bag of them at Wal-Mart (41 whole ounces : ). Just so you know... all the yellow ones are gone. I ate them all first, red is next.

A New Book I LOVE

I just finished this book... I read it in 24 hours it was THAT good : )
This is a story about a girl who has read too many romance novels and knows that nothing in life can ever be as fantastically amazing as it is in those books. OH MY GOSH it was such a fun, cute story... I think everyone should read it : ) Let me know if you want to borrow it as my copy is no longer busy being read by me.
