How "they" think. . .

I posted this because:

It is funny.

Tami and I had lovely conversations about men's brains.

It is funny.

Proof are complicated and men have an empty place.

And to me that is funny.

Thursday Tunes.

I have been listening to lots of music lately, and I found this sweet tune. 

please, listen and fall in love

Put it on the list.

I have a bucket-list.
And every now-and-again I added new things to it. . .

#13 

Climb a cliff side in the early morning

and then do YOGA as the Sunrises!

My bucket list is always in the works.

Sometimes I forget that I am young, and then I look at my feet and notice that I have holes in my socks. I don't know what it is, but seeing my toes poke out of my socks makes me feel like a kid again. And oddly enough, instead of throwing these holy socks away I put them in the wash just so I can wear them again. And I will be reminded that life is simple.

It is Wednesday, and usually Wednesdays are my favorite days, but today all I wanted to do after school was listen to music that I was obsessed with in high school and draw pictures of people. And so that is exactly what I did. I am not one to close myself off from civilization and hide in my room, but today I just wanted to get away and be by myself.

And now I am just thinking. . .
I like thinking. . .
It helps me organize and focus my ideas.
To be honest I could spend hours on end pondering- and after feeling quite accomplished.

I found this beauty of a song that I thoroughly enjoy. Please listen and love it like I do!

To go along with my "I'm in control" theme I found this video that would just suffice. . . Yep, I pretty much like her.

Today, Sunday- well according to the time I guess Sunday was actually yesterday, but anyway.
I had a great day, a spiritual Fast-Sunday spent with good food, friends, and well the spirit.
I don't know what it is now though- probably the late hour, but I just feel gloomy.
Most of my friends from home are getting out of school on Friday. . . What I would give to have Christmas break start on Friday!  But no, up here we have a whole week more than them. . . It can't come soon enough- especially with me dwelling on the time.
But who cares to be quite honest. . . ha!

I am wearing spandex right now- I know it is almost two in the morning, but it is cold in my house.
I think the first thing to always get cold on my body is my nose. . . are there such things as nose warmers?
Finals are coming up- joy! not.  I should be studying, but I can't think straight anymore.

Tomorrow (today) I am looking forward to swimming laps!  Last week I was moved up into the fast lanes!  My instructor turned to me and said, "Kelsie why haven't you been in these lanes all semester?" and then a girl in the lanes told me in the locker rooms afterwards that I was really fast!  (ESTEEM BOOSTER!)  It is amazing what simple complements and acts of kindness can do to someones day.  These simple acts can truly change someone's life- Big deal, I know!
Tomorrow I am excited to go to the gym and to run/work-out . . . I am excited to sweat!  (grr!) I want to go work out no, but I shouldn't- it isn't wise, safe or healthy at this point and time.

This week I am excited for soup and bread bowls, summer in a box, exercising every day!!, to eat celery, apples, peanut butter, to take warm showers, sit in front of the blowing heater, wear clean clothes, meeting new people, and finding humility and gratitude in all that I have.

My life is great, even when I am tired and freezing- I am so blessed!

Check out this song, oh and this one.

I love it.  It makes me happy.

I have had the most amazing week, and now as I am sitting here on my bed I feel a bit melancholy-ish.  I don't know why to be honest.  Maybe it is because I have tons of homework and mid terms to study for, maybe it is because I feel very grateful and I only want to repay everyone for all they have done, or perhaps it is the fact that my time is slipping away from me. . . .

Yesterday I was texting my sister.  O how I miss her so much.  She probably doesn't even realize it, but she said some things to me that has really made me think.  Then I went to IWA Women's Conference today and I was hit with the same thoughts.  I am always amazed at how the Lord speaks to me.  I have grown so close to My Heavenly Father these past few months, all I want to do is pray- all the time.

Have you ever thought of the importance of one day?  Today is Saturday and as I will spend the rest of it doing laundry, cleaning the kitchen, studying and doing homework, someone else is getting married, having a child, celebrating a victory, falling in love, taking their last breath, crying over a failure, agonizing because of death. . . Major life changing events.  A pivoting point.  Days that will never be forgotten. . . and here I sit.  And o how thankful I am just to sit here thinking.

I am always reassured that life is just simply marvelous.
