I Have A Confession




My best friend makes me listen to the country station EVERY morning on the way to school because he knows how much I hate country music. But I've got to tell you guys something.

I don't think I hate it as much as I thought.
Okay before you say anything, I have definitely not been fully converted to it.
I mean that song about fishing? & the red solo cup? Seriously. So weird.
But, I am starting to love some of the good songs. Here's a couple of my favorites...





French Fries









*Just a side note, the peace signs & duck faces are not authentic. Thy are fun to make fun of.

Any who, I suck at blogging. I wish I was better at it. My down time is rare and when it shows up I spend it sleeping and watching How I Met Your Mother reruns.
As you can see, I braved ice skating once more, and I didn't suck as much this time!
Man, do I hate ice skating. Okay maybe not hate; strongly dislike.
I should probably fill you in on the big things happening right now in Emma Land.

I finished personal progress. That's been a long time coming.
I bought a prom dress yesterday & I'm learning to like it.
I'm now going to church an hour away cause I'm part of the YSA
& probably the most important thing, I decided where I am going to college. 

Drum roll please ........

BYU-IDAHO!
I have so much to say about this decision I hardly know where to start. Ever since I got accepted I had this strong feeling that that is where I need to be. Saturday night I found out that I didn't get into BYU in Utah. I wouldn't say I was crushed but I definitely felt pretty low. So many of my friends got in & now I just feel stupid. I am going to hear a lot of Aww Emma I'm so sorry. & that is probably the suckiest part.

But hey you know what?! This feeling means something, and not getting into BYU just made it more vivid. I know where I need to be now, even if it means feeling a little sucky for a while. I am so scared to go far away, to a school I've never seen, but it's all part of the experience right?! Plus I have some good friends who will be there with me, and the gospel never changes, no matter where you are! That's a big comfort!

& let's not forget, Idaho is land of the potatoes right? That must make for some great french fries ;)

Long Time No Blog


Let's play some ketchup...I mean catch-up...









We had Senior Dinner Dance/Senior Emmy Night a couple weeks ago.
Here was my thought process by the end of the night...

-Wait, I paid $40 bucks for this?!
-I didn't win best hair, okay. So what's all this for anyways?
-Jay is the coolest waiter ever, well sort of.
-I'm glad hell is almost over. Opps, I mean high school.
-I never want to see a hoe's underwear for the rest of my life. Or lack of underwear I should say.
-These kids are freakin' classy. Um, yeah that was sarcasm.

Connect the dots people. This girl is so unbelievably done with high school it's ridiculous.
At least I looked cute is all I can say. Except for my black bra.
I guess I'm not so classy after all.

Right now, I am dying to vent about everything under the sun, but I am going to refrain. All it would do is make me look horrible and whiny. Also, I would probably lose all my friends. So time to suck it all back in and slap a grin on my face. I am hatin' these winter time blues.
