Resolutions.

At the beginning of the year, I wrote out a list of 40 things I wanted to accomplish in 2008; New years resolutions, if you will. I was looking over them a couple days ago. Half a year has passed. Let's see how I've done:

1. Bring up my GPA (um... haven't accomplished that just yet.)
2. Go to Hawaii (upon snooping in my parents e-mail a few days ago, Ally discovered reservations for a hotel in Hawaii for a family of five in August. So, CHECK.)
5. Save money and stop spending so much (refer to this post. Christian Dior. Enough said.)
8. Cook more (I have yet to cook a single meal this year...)
9. Go to the gym 2-3 times per week (haha. Yeah right.)
10. Sew something and FINISH it (I'm pretty sure I'll go my entire life without accomplishing this one)
12. Get a new black purse (CHECK. I've actually bought myself 2 new black purses so far. Refer to resolution number 5)
15. Run (refer to resolution number 9)
17. Take more pictures (CHECK. But, I guess I could always take more)
22. Road trip (CHECK. Refer to this post)
23. Have an adventure (CHECK. I went to Vegas by myself in June for a course at the Dental school. That was quite the adventure. Plus, I'm going to Guatemala in August... that will definitely be an adventure)
31. Win something (CHECK!! Refer to this post and this post. A DVD player, an iPod and a gas card. I say I've dominated this one)
33. Don't get married (CHECK. Not like it was hard though.)
35. Decorate (CHECK. Thanks to an IKEA trip in May, Heidi, Ally and I sucessfully redecorated our living room)
36. Clean out my closet (Not quite. I started to last weekend. But then my friend Tyler called and I went and got all-you-can-eat sushi with him instead. The small amount that I actually accomplished is currently laying on the floor in my room and will probably remain there for the next couple of months)
40. Take more risks (Not really. I feel like I've been really lame lately)

So, there is the list (well, most of it at least. I chose to leave out a couple resolutions...) In conclusion, it is July and I have failed to accomplish all but 8 of my 40 resolutions. Not good. On the bright side, its only July. I still have 5 more months...

Rexburg.

Saturday night, I texted Jay asking him what he was up to. He asked me if I wanted to go to Rexburg. I said sure. He knew someone throwing a party up there and wanted to go. So, we (Jay, Ally and I) left Salt Lake at about 6:00, got to Rexburg at about 10:30, partied for a couple of hours and then turned around and drove back. It was quite the adventure. We didn't get home until 5:30 in the morning and I had to be up in a couple hours later for a meeting. So tired.

Unfortunately, these are the only pictures I managed to take of the trip.

I offered to pay for gas on the way home. Lucky me, though. I still seem to be on my winning streak and I ended up winning a $20 gas card. That was nice.

New.

It’s been approximately 45 days since I last posted anything on here. Long time. And while much has happened, I’m really not in the mood to play catch-up. I’ll save that for later (and by later I mean never).

However, I am in the mood to tell you about my newest purchase: the Dior Strassy 1 sunglasses.

Christian Dior. Enough said.
