In a Dream

I had a piece of red plastic wrap, after playing with it for a little, delaying my studying. I put it over my camera lens to see what it would look like. I think it made everything almost like one was in a dream. Tell me if you like them.

February-14

I have always celebrated Single Awareness Day, most people celebrate Valentine's. Well, I kinda celebrate both, without Valentine's there wouldn't be SAD yeah? Anyway, I don't really have any plans for it. But, the weather is super amazing outside, 63 and sunny, really windy, but because it's so warm it doesn't feel bad. :) I was supposed to get a little package from my parents today, but it didn't come. So hopefully by tomorrow. I remember when I was little having classroom parties every year for this holiday. Where I got to decorate a shoe box, or make a huge paper heart, and everyone would bring a valentines for the rest of the class, and you could eat the candy for the next month you got so much. I always loved holding my big box of candy on the bus ride home and everyone would be telling others how much better their candy supply was then everyone elses'. gotta love children. Oh, today is day 100 on my other blog if ya wanna check it out! Well, from me to you! I love you! and Happy Valentine's Day!

How To:

Hi! so, finally at Wal-Mart yesterday I got around to buying hair bleach, since I have been trying to bleach some hair pieces in various other ways, that all failed, such as hydrogen peroxide, and Clorox bleach. Doing this reminded me of Matt: such as when he bleached his hair nasty red as a freshman, and when I dyed his hair black, and I didn't read the instructions very well and got a lot of his skin blackened.. hehe. Here are the steps of bleaching hair:
Step One:
Mix the stuff together, follow instructions, and look at the picture! unlike me... I ended up  mixing the stuff in a cup, but it still worked. Then, find a willing guinea pig to practice putting the bleach on, such as a room mate.




Step Two:
Section out hair you want bleached, then rub lotion on all other areas to protect against unwanted bleaching, then, using gloves dip into mixture and rub into hair from roots to tips, wipe up any drips with a damp rag, before it starts to irritate skin.(for reals, it kinda itches)



Step Three:
Wait.. and wait.. watch a movie.. wait some more, watch it slowly go from brown to blond, be all excited with room mate every time you see the color change. 


Step Four: 
When at desired color, be even more excited and wash out bleach, and use the special supplied conditioner, because it smells delish.


Step Five:
Style hair as usual, while staring at your new streaks of blond, that probably only you can notice, but that doesn't matter.  Still be super exited and smiley with roomie.

Pianer

Today, I went down to the institute to play the piano for a little bit. I printed off some sheet music for Boston by Augustana. I can mostly play it, and I'm super excited to keep learning it. I forgot how much fun it was to just plunk around on the piano.




Future

 I do not expect anyone to read my internal feelings about my thoughts on my future, but I needed to get it out.

I think I have been stressing myself out way too much thinking about the future these last couple of days. It all started with me realizing I needed to decide on what classes I was signing up for for next fall. So, after looking up dental school's and seeing what classes they mostly wanted, I signed up for one of those classes. But then, I started thinking about how I first need to graduate this school to go to Dental school, and I started thinking on my major. Mostly, I do not want to do a Biology major, that just sounds horrid. So... I then started thinking about majors, do I do Business? Art? I dunno! So, I started thinking art, and then I thought no, because if I don't go to Dental school, that would do nothing for me. So I am thinking business, which means I need to start taking business classes, and do I even like business classes? I dunno. And what business class should I take? So, I decided to just sign up for my GE's and realized how many more I have to take since Bio and Chem took up so much of my time this year. So, I decided on all of those. But then, that forces me out of taking classes that might help with a major. I am back at square one. I think.. I need to take a business class and see if I like it. But, at least I do know that I still want to go to Dentist school.. which means, I also need to study super hard, and decide on what I need to take for that! *deep breath* okay. venting. done.
On a happier note, I have decide that this summer I am going to work, and do a Photo-shoot at the Salt Flats, and maybe visit St. George, and also I would like to job shadow a Dentist and an Orthodontist. Also of course, the normal swimming, and hanging out, and maybe some boating. Yup, that's it so far! But, I am totally looking forward to it.

Groundhog's Day!


Pictures from MSNBC photoblog
Today is Ashley's favorite holiday. Groundhog's day!!! Today Punxsutawney Phill predicted an early Spring! Yay! Since 1887 he has only predicted an early spring16 times including today, and 6 weeks of winter the other 98 years. I don't really get how we know if he saw his shadow or not, but that's okay. I'll take the hope of warmer weather any day. Today was awesome weather though! 59 degrees and sunny :) There was wind, but it made it pretty much perfect. I actually enjoyed my jog.
Beee-You-Tea-Full Weather!


 Not too hot, not too cold. Perfect for a light jacket! :) Also, Ashley's super duper cute Groundhog day outfit!!! Yay!
