Why I love Facebook...

We live in a world where technology has become a necessity. What's the first thing you do when you wake up every morning? For me it's 1. brush teeth 2. eat breakfast/check Facebook. My Facebook is FULL of memories, inside jokes, and people I will never forget. I'm the girl that's kept a journal since 11th grade. I'm obsessed with reading old entries and seeing my old statuses.

This application: http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=54715426813 gathers every status update since August 2008! Here are some of my favorite statuses of 2010...

Summer Ni-IIIIGHTS!

Ah, summer 2010... I love you already. :) The only thing missing is Elisha. He yesterday and won't be back until July. :(

So far, my summer has included parties, a wedding, and a little lifestyle change. On Thursday I finally became a vegetarian. I've been thinking about it for a really long time and I'm so happy I finally did it. The first week has been wonderful. I'm not necessarily doing it for animal rights. It's more of a health issue. There are so many health benefits from being vegetarian. It should be interesting. I'll be sure to keep you updated on my experiences.

In other important news: I gave myself a pedicure. My toes are cute again. AND our pool is open! I might have to do some tanning this week. :)

MAYDAY!

April is gone. What an eventful month!! I hope May has just as much fun in store.

How am I spending my first day of May? I'm being completely lazy while watching movies. I'm on my third movie right now. Yesterday, our cable went out. The internet is working, but the television is not. Awesome. Anyway, now I'm watching Pride and Prejudice and reading articles on Yoga Journal while sweet Penny plays and Odie naps.

I hope this last week of finals goes by quickly and smoothly. Either way... It's almost over and I am THRILLED. I am so ready for something different.

Speaking of different... Yoga seems to be my obsession of the week. Maybe this will end up being more than just a Spring fling. A Summer romance sounds better.



When April steps aside for May,
Like diamonds all the rain-drops glisten;
Fresh violets open every day:
To some new bird each hour we listen.
