I Voted (red checkmark symbol)!!!

I finally got my ballot all filled out, and have completed my first voting experience!!! Dawn asked if I'd taken pictures with it, and I thought it was the best idea. Unfortunately this is the best picture, mug shot style. But still, it's pretty dang cool!



This is a picture of John Deere and the infamous phone call with Mommy. Aparently he's camera shy or something. =)

We crashed the 84th ward Halloween party, and here are a few classic shots of my roomies and I from that night.

Dear Pirates:

To answer the comments on my last blog...
BS, you stink. If your name is BS, then YOU need to find a new way to name things!
And Scott, here is the story of Boom Shadow.
My friend in high school was trying to get into film school, so he had to make a movie. He had all the fancy equipment, the location, the script, and all he needed were some actors. I volunteered, and had a wonderful time filming. One day during shooting, the boom mike's shadow fell into the shot, so my friend turned off the camera and said, in a very monotonous voice,"boom shadow." My fellow actor friend turned to me and asked, "Is that a good thing?" So after every successful take of a scene, he would go "BOOMSHADOW!" in celebration. I thought it was so hilarious, I adopted it as my own exclamatory phrase. To this very day, when something is truly praiseworthy, I will shout boomshadow. If that won't even cut it, I'll have to add a "boomshadow eternal!" The end.

And to the rest of the world: BS= Brandon Michael Smith= John Deere, one of the Pirates

OK, today was such a funny day, but different than I had planned it. I got up "early" to get a jump on my day, did some laundry, and got my books out to study. It was a beautiful day, so I went on the stoop around 10 to eat breakfast and read. BUT THEN, John Deere came over to talk to me, and he just stayed. I told him that I didn't have a sense of smell and he didn't believe me. So I handed him my phone and said, "just call my mom and ask her." Then he actually did it! They talked for like an hour, it was so funny! So I spent all day outside with John Deere and a mixture of other people coming and going. Like really all day, from 10 to about 5. It was so so fun, but I got zero homework done. Brandon threatened to find my blog, so if you've found it... bon traville.

Hope everyone's having a fantastic day!!!

Leesa's hard day

When Leesa was having a hard day due to boy issues, I decided to mourn with her, in the form of watching movies, eating food, and cuddlin' up with her. Have you ever seen the Mormon Pride and Prejudice. The picture below is an undoctored photo, which exactly resembles a scene from that movie. Shades down, jammies on, cookie dough in hand. Beautiful!
Then to make her feel better, all the roommates wrote love/hate letters to our own person of choice, went behind Matt's house, and burned them.
It was actually very clensing.
This is just a picture of the pumpkin I carved. It's shriveled here. When I did it, it didn't look so Nightmare before Christmas. But I still like it.
