I live in Provo.

most importantly: dear denver.... sorry this post took me so long. i know you've been anxiously awaiting this, and i hope it involves enough pessimistic sarcasm for your liking :)

saratoga springs:

• king size bed
• my dog
• my family
• my own bathroom
• a mother to share half of your food with
• fighting brothers to provide oddly comforting background noise 
• a walmart that i'm capable of finding without a gps

provo:

• a tiny bunk bed that you sometimes hit your head on in the middle of the night
• social activities....wait, what? (talking to people gives me anxiety. and trying to meet/like/remember/get to know people is exhausting!)
• maceys, which i'm not capable of finding without a gps
• not my own bathroom. *cough* that awkward moment when you have to make your roommate get out of the shower immediately or else you might just pee your pants (fear not-crisis averted)
• no dog :(
• no mother to share half of your food with :(
• no fighting brothers
• an enticing couch that probably possesses magic sleep powers (i was watching prison break....and then i woke up an hour later.....)

noteworthy experiences of the week

1.  THIS IS US: i'm almost ashamed to admit my deep love for one direction. (i dont even like music like that.) but. apparently i do, and i might be in love with harry styles. and all of the other adorable one direction members. canijustgoseethemovieagainplease?
2. i made cookies. in my kitchen. what? 
3. i may have knocked over and broken a glass at the dollar store, but the employees were cool about it and let me off the hook and i'd rather just pretend that never happened. deal?
4. free ice cream. from the creamery. twice. i'm a fan of free ice cream.
5. pep rally. i honestly dont understand everyones passionate adoration for football here. (did you know a touchdown is worth 6 points?...... six!)
6. look. dearest roommate- i realize that you have some freakish obsession with your life size thor cutout...but...not in the living room right in front of the door, k? its creepy, and it takes up too much space. cool?
7. that awkward moment when you get together with your singles ward for the first time... and its way to similar to the movie.  the stereotypes exist for a reason, guys.
8. prison break. if im not in love with harry styles...can i please have micheal scofield? he's a freaking genius.

that's basically all i have time to say right now. off to more social activities.
wish me luck!
