Halloween Weekend

Oh my goodness. What a weekend it has been ladies and gentlemen. FRIDAY It all started with a ward Halloween Party where we went as the Spice Girls (our ginger had a hot date)...

 Then, my bishop's costume scared the living day lights out of me when I realized it was him. Blue Man is a Brother Cowdell...also in the bishopric....creepy I know.

Then, we threw a little 1990's dance party. Nothing like a little backstreet boys to get a party started. Wardrobe change must be mentioned...

Alex, Heather, and I found these lovely gems at DI  for 15 dollars. Like the Velcro shoes??

After our dance party we traveled over to the Capitol House to watch Beverly Hills Ninja. I had actually never seen it before, but apparently it's a 90's classic? It was funny.

SATURDAY Alex (above in stripes) is a drummer in a band called Robert and the Carrolls, so like good friends we all went and watched him play at Velour down near Center St. They did a fantastic job! I really liked it, plus I got another chance to wear my lovely 90's outfit since that was the theme. After, a few of us had to munchies and grabbed some food at Wendy's. Then KayCee, Alex, Taylor, Ben, and myself managed to get into a dance party with redbull. (They were accepting canned foods and some girl gave us red bull and we totally used it to get it! haha) So we danced it up a bit then headed back to Alex's apartment to watch Jumper with Scott (these names mean nothing to you readers, I understand). Finally around 3 I was in bed.

Decided to change for the dance party so I decided to bring an oldie back...yeah sophomore year!!

SUNDAY Stake conference was really great! I surprisingly did not fall asleep and got a lot out of it. After we had some delicious pancakes with some fine young gentlemen. Then the four roommates got cozy on the couch and took a 10 minute nap which ended due to lots of visitors. We are just so popular. Ward Prayer, Planet Earth at the Capital House, and now my bed! 

That has been my weekend...and Halloween hasn't even happened!! Tomorrow we are watching a scary movie at the CH for ACTUAL Halloween :)

PS. I just registered for winter semester...classes don't start until 12 and I don't have class on Friday. SWEET! Now all I need is the snow!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Halloween Kick-Off

A bunch of us from the ward decided to start of Halloween last night and watch a classic. Hocus Pocus! It's at red box! This was by far one of the scariest movies I used to watch when I was little. Winnie Sanderson (the middle)...scares me. Sarah and Mary are just hilarious. Anywho, I'm excited for Halloween! Ward party on friday and I'm trying to coordinate with my friend Heather a ward 90's party afterwards. Little 90's music and watch another 90's classic. Sounds fun right?? It should be a good weekend after this stressful week I have had. Happy Thursday!

No Weekend For Me

It might be Friday, but looks like I won't be having much of a break. Here's what is approaching in the upcoming week.

1. Nutrition Midterm
2. Marriage Paper
3. Physics Midterm
4. Nutrition Abstract for my research paper...that I haven't started my research on.
5. Oh, and of course anatomy which takes up the majority of my time.
6. Throw in all the little odds and ends like readings, hw assignments, and quizzes...

Sounds like fun right? But I know I can do it. One thing at a time. Let my weekend begin!

PS. skypes from back home are the greatest. 33 days!

Going To Bed Before 9

Sometimes it just has to happen. My eyes are closing as I'm writing this post. This week has burnt me out and it's only Tuesday. But before I pass out just thought I would post from pinterest since that's what I did to stay awake in physics today. Good night!

I find these to be adorable

I find these to look fantastic

And I find this to be so true!

Apples With Peanut Butter

Probably one of my favorite snacks and yes I had one today. Not to mention it's healthier than that bag of potato chips or cheez-its :) Happy snacking!

Faith

Have some. 

Everything will work out.

Sound exciting? Yeah I know!

Just another typical Maggie weekend.

...days until I'm reunited with these people:

Anatomy Midterm Tomorrow

BAHHHH...infundibulum, rectus femoris, biceps brachii, petrous part, cribriform plate, extensor carpi radialis longus, medulla oblongata, labdoid suture...bored yet?

Now multiply that by 100 and that's about how many words I have to memorize. Not only do I have to know where they are, I also have to spell it correctly. Miss two letters? Wrong!

PANIC MODE!

Actually, I feel pretty ready for it. I need to practice some spelling and learn my origins and insertions and all should go swimmingly.

Mr. Reynolds

Mmmm. I love me some nice toned deltoids, pectoralis majors, and rectus abdominus muscles. 

(Sorry Toots and Pop...but I had too.)

Red Light

Red Light ~David Nail
so this is how it ends
this is where it all goes down
this is what I don't love you feels like

It ain't the middle of the night
and it ain't even raining outside
It ain't exactly what I had in mind.
For goodbye

At a red light in the sunshine
on a Sunday nothing to say
don't even try
some are coming home
some are leaving town
while my worlds crashing down
on a Sunday in the sunshine at a red light

I thought she was going to say
something about that couple kissing
crossing the street
or something about this beautiful day

but she just looked me in the eye
said its over didn't try to lie or pick a fight
I might have seen it
coming that way

Chorus

theres a mama
calming down a little baby
in the backseat in front of me
theres an old man dressed
in his Sunday best
just waiting on green
but i cant see getting past

this red light in the sunshine
on a Sunday nothing to say
don't even try
some are coming home
some are leaving town
while my worlds crashing down
on a Sunday in the sunshine at a red light

Set On A Number

If you are set on a number that you are dying to see on the scale, put this somewhere where you will see it everyday. Sure, a number is nice to see, but what happens when you hit that number. Make fitness your lifestyle. Make it enjoyable. Now...I should take my own advice. The scale has been sitting still for awhile and I've been frustrated. I'm just going to keep up healthy eating and exercise and make sure I don't get discouraged. I'm working towards a healthy lifestyle...not a number. 

This week:

I got strep throat.

I made chicken divan for dinner group--everyone loved it!

I aced all my quizzes

I wore my rain boots twice this week

I rearranged my room.

I watched the entire first season of One Tree Hill again

We officially have snow.

please excuse my finger at the bottom

T.G.I.F      T.G.I.F.     T.G.I.F (to be chanted like in "Last Friday Night"

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Happy October First

I'm very efficient when it comes to decorating. Christmas is always the night after Thanksgiving dinner and Halloween in on the first of October. Therefore, our apartment is officially decorated! Pictures? Of course! Ideas from pinterest.com:

We had a lot of fun decorating, but MAN it's a lot of work. These pictures don't do justice in my eyes, so come by and see if you can :) Let the festivities begin! Happy Halloween!!
