I saved 3 lives!

Yesterday Cassie and I saved a 3 lives each. =) The American Red Cross held a week-long blood drive in the Wilkinson Center. I'm not the biggest fan of needles, but I don't seem to mind them too much. I just feel like there is a large need for blood in the world and as an STD free, healthy person I feel like it is my duty to save lives because so many people can't. After donating blood we sat in the refreshment area for a while and drank some juice and ate some delicious cookies. What kind of cookies you ask? Lorna Doone shortbread cookies. They are delicious. We took a couple packs of cookies for the road and rented "Bee Movie" and made a night of it.
Along with eating cookies and watching a movie, we put on some masks to rejuvinate our lovely faces and then did some other girly stuff (waxed arms etc.) So now, after that lovely friday night, I must get back to school and studying for 3 exams next week! Boo! But it's ok, I'm going to try and be positive because I know it is an amazing blessing to be able to study at BYU.

i love you, in-n-out!

Hello everyone! So, I realize I haven't posted anything in a super long time, so here is something that I thought would be nice to blog about. So I'm pretty sure ya'll know about austin keith. So, he's helping out his brother in Las Vegas for a little while before he leaves for the mish. Anyway, I said to him, "austin keith! Promise me you'll eat an in-n-out burger and call me immediately and tell me what you think!" he agreed. So anyway, he messaged me and told me that he had one and I asked him what he thought. These were his words: "it was good. Wasn't anything special for me though."

WHAT DID HE JUST SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

I definitely took in-n-out burgers for granted when I lived in california. And now that austin keith has told me that they're nothing special, I just want to eat one even more, because I appreciate them!

A few thoughts about in-n-out burgers and why they rock:
1. There aren't so many options that you have to decide what you want. There is the classic burger with or without cheese and if you're really cool you know about animal style.
2. All the ingredients are fresh
3. They always taste exactly how you expect them to: fabulous!

Final thought: next time I step in california, first stop:



IN-N-OUT BURGER


p.s. don't hold a grudge against austin keith, he's still learning. but i'm sure after he's lived in california for 2 years he will appreciate them. =)
