Can't wait to get my yoga on tonight with my beautiful seester!

I look forward to every Thursday night now :)

randomness

Today my mind is all over the place. I thought I'd share.

1. my hair doo.
So I get very bored with my hair, yet I never really change it up. I don't want to color or mess with it too much cause I'm trying to grow it out. But my hair sucks & likes to break off. Partly my fault I guess. I need a new style for spring/summer. I did the melt last fall & loved it, but lightening my ends = major damage to Mallory's hair.-eeek. So I'm thinking just regular highlights maybe?? boresvilleeeee. I dunno. Help me out!

If only my hair could look like this one day.

2. Tis the season to get engaged!

Holy moly! I kid you not when I say every time I get on fb someone new has changed their status to engaged! Crazzy! But I am happy to say some of my dear friends are getting married this spring/summer & I'm so excited for them!

3. bridesmaid x3

Along with these engagements, I have been asked to be a bridesmaid for three of my best friends! I graciously accepted.... actually I hoped all along they would ask! ;) But with that comes shopping for dresses. Its been a daunting task. I don't think cute bridesmaid dresses exist. But I'm trying my best. These are the colors for my cute friend McKell's wedding & I love them! Just hard to find dresses to match. Keep your eye out for me folks!

4. Nikeee

I finally ordered my running shoes! Wahooo! They are the first ones you can see here. Normally they are a little bright for me, but I hope they turn out cute. I can't wait to try them out!

5. Nationals

I can't believe its been a year since we went to cheer nationals in Dayton Beach, Florida! Oh my word it was so much fun! I went to the UVU cheer & dance send off last night to support my old squad & I'm so excited for them! They looked awesome & I wish them the best! Sadly, I couldn't stay long so no pictures to provide. I miss my old squad so so much! Girls! We need to get together pronto!!

6. gym time

I did this treadmill workout along with 10 minutes of abs & 15 minutes of weights. I found the treadmill interval workout at one of my favorite blogs, Sweet Tooth Sweet Life. ohhh goodness! I was a sweaty sweaty mess, but it felt soo good. Give it a try!

The 55-minute routine covers (3) sets of 5 minutes @ 6.0mph, 4 minutes @ 6.5, 3 minutes @ 7.0, 2 minutes @ 7.5 and 1 minute at 8.0. Covers about 5 miles!

7. I crave disneyland errrday.
I haven't been in... two years now? Ah! I need to go. now.

Well that's what I'm thinkin about today.

Happy Wednesday!

herbivore... well sorta.

I am weird -when it comes to food. I am very picky. I'm not proud of it, & frankly its really difficult to go out to certain places. There is probably a longer list of foods I don't like, than what I like. Bad i know. As much as I hate to admit it... its probably due to "watching what I eat" practically my whole life. Being a girl is hard & there is a lot of pressure to look a certain way. Therefore I have taught myself over the years to really pay attention to what I eat. I like to call it... "health freak status". But as I've grown more confident and comfortable with myself, I have been so much more open to trying new foods- healthy or not. I am a health major & healthy foods & lifestyles are drilled into my head everyday, but I've learn that healthy means balance. Its okay to eat like crap every once in a while, just not everyday. I have to say, it hasn't been easy. But I AM trying.

(Wow I totally didn't mean to go off on that tangent.)

In my attempt to eat a more "balanced" diet, there is one small thing I can't get past... red meat. I have never really been a fan of it, but I grew up with my parents cooking it so I just ate it. Then during my health kick, I read a bunch of articles about how it can cause higher mortality rates, cancer, & cardiovascular disease. So I stopped eating it, which was easy cause I didn't really like it anyway. I am not a vegetarian by any means! I have turkey practically everyday! Problem is.... I'm really inconvenient. I never want to offend anyone or be a hassle by not eating it. Like eating a big juicy hot dog at the ballpark sounds fun, but I'd rather have a big juicy diet coke.

So that's my dilemma... I try so hard to just suck it up & eat it, but why when I don't enjoy it? Can anyone relate???  

now please

crazyyy town

peeping tom.

So don't worry we have had a creeper looking in our windows at night. 

AHHH! I live in a big house down here in Orem with 5 other girls & apparently some guy found that out & has been peeping on us!!!! Long story short.... but my roommate was home the other day & a cop showed up at our house (he is also our neighbor). He showed her a picture of a man about 30 years old & asked her if she knew him. She said "No" & he said "okay well if you see him let us know, we are looking for him." He left. Then he came back like an hour later and said.. "Are you sure you don't know this guy? My wife saw him in your back yard the other day & then again this morning looking into your house." UMM ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! My roommate & the cop went around our house & found foot prints at every window & every window well!

The cop left & apparently saw the guy in our yard AGAIN a little later, chased him down & arrested him. This guy had previous charges of trespassing & "peeping tom" (I don't know the real name for it) charges. eeeeek! Soo thankfully he has been caught, but I have no clue how long this guy would stay in jail. I'm assuming he is out already??

This has only heightened my sleeping problems, as you can imagine. I lay there at night listening to every tiny sound, thinking it's that freakin guy! Ugh it scares me so bad! My parents & Willie & all of my roommates are totally paranoid about it. The other night we walked around my house and locked every door & window, checked every room, bathroom, & closet. Not to mention Will told me to keep my old shower rod in my room just in case! Seriously?? Thank you for adding to my comfort, NOT! ha it was a nice thought tho :)

Can you believe this? I still can't. Ugh so creepy. I'll keep you updated if he comes back around. I pray he doesn't!!!!
