Shrek is pretty awesome.

A secret that won't be so secret about me: I think Shrek (the first) has the best soundtrack ever.

Here's one of my all time favorite songs. <3 I finally replaced my strings on my guitar this weekend, so playing on it today while in the sun room was pretty nice... =)

NFL Draft 2011 and Other Things

It's most definitely Spring and I'm most certainly ready for warmer weather! April's been a busy month and it seems that the quiet(er) chapter in my life has passed. Already, I'm busy catching up to all the plans I made when I had nothing else better to do. It's exciting, but I'm constantly thankful that God's been giving me such an amazing period of rest in my life.

This past weekend, I went on an sort-of-impromptu trip to NYC. I say "sort of" because I had been planning to go for a month, canceled, then morning of decided to go. My brother got me tickets to the NFL Draft at Radio City Music Hall, so I went with two of my girlfriends. I thought people were going to hate on us for loving the Eagles, but this one chick was a Patriots fan...and apparently EVERYONE hates Boston and Tom Brady...so she and her one friend kind of got owned...really bad.

At any rate, it was fun and I even cried a little when this one dude got chosen. I forget his name but the man was so emotional and he dragged his whole family, all 55 cousins and aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews out onto the stage with him.

I have to especially welcome Mr. JAIQUAWN JARRETT from TEMPLE UNIVERSITY to the PHILADELPHIA EAGLES!!! 2 for 2, from my school, for my team!!!

Seats were right in front of ESPN reporters




















Mission IMPROMPTU NYC - Success. OH! And I bought a bathing suit!!! TAKE ME TO THE BEACH SOMEONE...I'm so ready to pig out and tan. =P

Yellow Makes Me Smile

I don't think loving beauty or beautiful things is vain. God is beautiful and he made beautiful people and things. When I find beautiful things, I smile, big, big, BIG! Always, yellow makes me smile. And...I don't really follow fashion, but I ADORE Kate Spade and she got the YELLOW FEVER this season! ...I want to remember it forever.

My elephant measuring cups ^_^















Not the prettiest pie ever...but it's my first and my favorite =)

Language Barriers Made Me Smile

Although language barriers are often a cause for frustration, it also cracks me up.

I had a good laugh this morning because of my mom =)
Mom: You shoulda watch sex-peal. Iss good for you.
Me: Sex Appeal?...Huh?
Mom:Sex-peal! Lomeo and Jew-yet.
Me:...Shakespeare?

Student from my Sunday School Class:
Student: My uncle is a pirate.
Me: Whoa, really?! He's a pirate? Like, "Argh" *Covered eye with one hand, made hook with finger from the other*
Student: No, pirate! He flies.
Me: Oh! A pilot! That's cool too.

My Grandma trying to teach me French:
Grandma: Myulchee bbokkeum! (<--means anchovy fried rice in Korean, meant "merci beaucoup" )
Grandma: Puh-lenchi Thank-que!

Hahaha love it! =) So cute~

Dancing Makes Me Smile

I love dancing.
I have a special dance for when I eat something delicious.
Or, when I'm nervous.
Or, when I'm so excited and can't contain myself.
I dance in my kitchen, my bathroom, my bedroom.
You'd think I'm an awesome dancer by now...but I'm not. Hahaha =P
But, I do it anyway. Makes me smile.

This clip of Charlie Brown is so cute! I watch it every other day because I can't get over how adorable it is. Hahahaha...and my friend said I dance like the little girl in the purple dress with sparse and scraggly hair...HAHA =(

New do, but same ole me

I have always loved getting my hair cut. In high school, I would go from one extreme to the other. Grow it really long, then CHOP it! When I got to college, I stopped cutting it short and kept it really long. I missed the short hair me. So...I brought it back!

Here's a before:














After:















How refreshing is that?!?! I've gone from full blown lion to prepubescent Simba. Awesome. =P
I love my hair dresser!!! That is no one better!

Anyways. That was fun.
