john.

WOW! John Mayer concert was amazing. Amazingggg. He was even better live that he is on CD. It was amazing. Apparently, that's the only adjective that describes it adequately, becuase that is the only one I seem to be able to come up with. The concert was at this cool outdoor amphitheater thing that was so cool. So the whole concert was out under the stars. It was awesome. Oh wow. He is wonderful. I He is such a good guitar player! and his voice is...yep, you guessed it - AMAZING!
We accidentally left the lights on when we parked, so our car was dead when we went to leave - we had high hopes that John would come and give us a ride back to Provo on his bus. No such luck. However, we did meet this really sweet lady and her daughter who helped us jump start the car. It was actually a really cool thing. We were trying to jump it and we kept trying and trying and it wouldn't work and we couldn't figure out why. We had been trying for probably 15 minutes and nothing was working, so we were in the decided to take off the jumper cables and put them away, and try to think of a plan B. So we, being the 4 BYU students that we are, huddled on the side of the car and said a quick prayer while this lady was putting away the cables. The minute we stood up, this guy walked over and said "Do you guys need some help?" So he re-hooked up the jumper cables, and we tried to start the car, and it worked. It was awesome. It was a really really neat experience.
Anyway, I love John Mayer. I have listened to nothing but him for the last 24 hours. Mmm!! :]

kayaking.

so basically, i had the most amazing weekend of my life.
friday night i went on a night hike to stewart falls.
it's this amazing waterfall up by sundance.
the hike was really easy (definitely my type of hike)
but it was so beautiful and so amazing and so worth it.
it was kind of a bummer that it was in the dark...
but it was still pretty.
then today - i did the most fun thing i have done in a long time
(and i am so proud of myself for doing it because anyone who knows me is certain to know that me and outdoorsy things such as this dont really mix that well)
I WENT KAYAKING!!
ha! it was SO fun!
there were four of us and we were in 2 person kayaks.
it was amazing!
it was about an hour and 45 minutes, and most of it was just floating.
it was beautiful.
the water was absolutely disgustingly cold.
there was this one part on the river where there was a bridge and a funny current and the river guides told us to get out of the water for that part because we were bound to tip but....us being the real smart people that we are...forgot and didnt get out in time, and of course - tipped.
it was FREEEEEZING!
but so worth it!
im not gonna lie..i felt pretty hardcore.
it was the most fun adventure i have gone on this summer!

i think that this weekend my appreciation for nature definitely grew.
i really like being outside.
especially at night.
there is nothing more beautiful to me than the stars.
i love them.
i love looking at them and sitting in awe of the universe and how amazing it is.

okay - i lied.
i love being outside in the summer.
i hate being outside in the winter.
actually, i just hate the winter.
when im done with college im going to move somewhere with no winter.
ha.

mormon movies.

I just have to say that I love Mormon movies.
First of all, lets contemplate the movie "Saturday's Warrior"
What an amazing work of genius art is Saturday's Warrior?
Honestly. I love it.
When I was little I used to watch it multiple times a day.
I would pretend to be the characters.
I had a one piece, long sleeved/long pants, shiny metallic blue body suit that I would wear with a ballet skirt over top.
I knew every dance and every song.
It really is wonderful.
Next, "Charly"
It is wonderful.
Enough said.
Lastly, "Sons of Provo"
Tonight, me and some friends - being the extremely cool people that we are - watched this amazing movie.
Never before have a watched a movie that crams more hilarious "Mormonisms" into a little over an hour.
It was, well - amazing!
Really, when examined in a comic setting such as this movie, the whole culture of Mormons is quite funny.
I love it.

nyc.

I suck at blogging.
Sorry! well.
i just had the best week of my life.
seriously though.
i went to nyc for a week.
i love that city.
i love it i love it i love it!! while we were there we saw Wicked and Legally Blonde the Musical.

i love it.

alright, it was a lot depressing.
i just love the city!
