Hello, Motivation. And Hottie.

So, I've recently become obsessed with watching this show on MTV called "I Used to be Fat." I know... I know. But it seriously is actually a good MTV show. And last week's episode literally made my jaw drop. And the trainer was rather attractive which didn't hurt. So, here I have provided the video for you. Seriously, if you want to feel motivated to go work out or eat better, watch this show. It's just insane.

Get in Loser, We're Going Tubing.

Most of the time when I see snow, I think "Blech. I hate you. I hate that I have to walk to school in you. I hate that you make me slip and almost faceplant in front of people." But Monday, Snow and I had a wonderful time with each other on my day off of school.

The Gang (Bree - and roommate and brother, Katie, Eth, Josh, McKay, and me) all went tubing up at Soldier Hollow. I'd been before up in Park City with my mom and remembered that tubing was one of the few snow-activities I enjoyed. No skills involved. Just pure fun. And you know what, IT WAS! We had a blast tubing for two hours with each other. Soaking up each other's awesomeness (I'm feeling very "Mean Girls" today). Bree was our official photographer of the day so I stole the pictures I'm about to show you from her.

And if you've never been snow-tubing before, you need to go. Seriously. It's fun. I promise.

I am struggling to come up with a song for this. Ok. I've got it. While driving up there, Josh and I were talking music and he brought up a good song, "Broken" by Seether featuring Amy Lee. So, why not. I'll make that the song for this post. This one's dedicated to you Joshy.

Check it Out!

I feel as though I'm overwhelming you with music. I'm sorry. I've just been on one of those music highs the past few days. Like when all you want to do is eat chocolate, except all I want to do is find awesome new music. Anyways, here's an interesting mash-up I ran across during my search and I thought I would share it with you. Consider it my belated Christmas/New Year's present to you!

Soundtrack To My Life

So, I've recently decided that if I could take any previously existing soundtrack and apply it to my life, it would be the soundtrack to Grey's Anatomy. I think that I love scouting out the music from the show as much as I enjoy actually watching it.

So, because I love all of you so very much, I'm going to share some of my favorite finds from the Grey's soundtrack. Don't say I never did anything for you. I'm about to enrich your iTunes library with some good stuff.

#1: "That Home" - The Cinematic Orchestra
#2: "Keep Breathing" - Ingrid Michaelson (Grey's loves Ingrid and so do I.)
#3: "Turn to Stone" - Ingrid Michaelson
#4: "Nowhere Warm" - Kate Havnevik
#5: "New Day" - Kate Havnevik
#6: "First in Line" - Matthew Mayfield
#7: "The Great Escape" - Patrick Watson
#8: "Into the Fire" - Thirteen Senses
#9: "Never Leave Your Heart Alone" - Butterfly Boucher
#10: "Bound by Love" - Gran Bel Fisher
#11: "Stay Over" - The Rescues
#12: "Ain't Nothin Wrong With That" - Robert Randolph & The Family Band

Here's a preview for one of them for you, "Never Leave Your Heart Alone." Enjoy!

Has it been 4 years already?!

Accept my apologies for the lack of blog-posting going on, despite the fact that I have been doing SO much while I've been home. Part of that was sarcasm, part of it was serious. I can't believe how fast this break has gone by! I wish it would slow down a little bit!

So, anyway. Last week I met up with some old choir friends for some pizza. It was so fun to see some people who I haven't seen in years! Everyone's growing up and moving on to bigger and better things in their lives. But we still have lots of fun coming back to Flo Mo and catching up with each other. Gotta love it.

So uh... here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure. Cuz I know you like to stalk my life... admit it.






For today's song, I'm going to choose a song that reminds me of my senior year of high school every time I hear it... "Face Down" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.

Marry Me, "Jet".

So, I got home Friday afternoon. First stop. Where else but Taco Cabana? And that night... MAVS GAME with the fam! Seriously so much fun. Watching them play in person is so much more fun than on TV. As some of you may know, I am in love with Jason "Jet" Terry. Have been since I first became a hard-core Mavs fan. And... obviously because I was there... he had a STELLAR night. He was named Player of the Game. Couldn't be more proud of my man. And to top it all off, that night was the night of the Jason Terry Collector's Cup. So yes. I will be drinking out of it for the rest of my life... or for a while anyway.

Unfortunately for my bro-in-law, he's a Suns fan... so he didn't have quite as much fun. But he loves being with his family (right, Matt?). But Kaitlin and I had a blast dancing and cheering. We were a little more rambunctious than the rest of our family, but that's to be expected. And now she has the "Mavs Fever." Good girl, Kaitlin. I've taught you well.

I have no idea what song should accompany this post. So I don't think I'm going to worry about it. Sorry. Lame, I know.
