A Nice Surprise

I'm pretty sure Thanksgiving was the most amazing thing ever because I was able to have sugar for the first time in a long time. It was definitely hard the next day though looking in the fridge and seeing the pie and knowing I couldn't have any. Sad day... I had to work on Black Friday and it was the craziest thing ever. People were just pulling things off the racks without trying them on and running to get in line. Before we opened there was a line from the front door all the way to the back of the parking lot. When the doors opened it was a mad rush. Now we're pretty much out of everything until we get more shipments in. The hardest part of the Thanksgiving break was going back to school after not having classes for an entire week.

So every semester BYU-I has a student fine arts show. Students submit their best pieces and they are judged by the art directors. If they are chosen they are displayed in the Spori art gallery. Well I wasn't planning on putting anything in the show so I didn't worry about it. I went to my ceramics class today and my teacher said that he submitted one of my pieces without me knowing and it made it in! I was pretty surprised to say the least considering I hadn't thought about it much. If you guys want me to make you vases or anything like that just let me know. You'll have to tell me pretty fast though, our last day to use the throwing wheels is Friday. Have a great day everyone!

Taking a Load Off

When I was in high school I swore that I would never cut my hair short again. Well.... I guess I lied because I had it all chopped off yesterday. At first I was kind of bummed over the cut because I felt like it wasn't what I wanted, but today I actually really liked it. I think it was probably the way that she styled it that made me unhappy about it. It's a weird sensation to wash my hair and not have anything there now. It will take some getting used to. The nice thing about it is that it only takes me 15 minutes to do my hair now!

In other news, I passed my English class and actually got an alright grade out of it!!! Boo-yah!

Like the new cut? Juuuuuust Kidding.


That's better.
