there is absolutely no reason for me to put pants on today.

1) i love this place. the sunrises are always phenomenal & make me glad to be alive.
2) just because i said no to one guy does not automatically make me dating the other one. i don't even like him. you guys are retarded. stop jumping to conclusions.
3) people are so dishonest sometimes it makes me sick. if there is one thing i've learned in the last year it's that honesty is the most important factor in any relationship. also, don't lie about stupid things because you're jealous of someone else.
4) i wish i could fall back asleep right now.
5) i have learned the past few months that having people come into your life that are just like you can be either an amazing blessing or a serious temptation.
6) for being spring break, there's a surprising amount of people walking around campus.
7) i make mistakes. i'm human. i know one thing and then sometimes i go and do another. but wanna know something? that's okay. every day i'm working towards a greater goal. some days are harder than others, and sometimes i'm embarrassed about things i've done, but the beauty of it is that i can shake it off and be forgiven and it's all alright again.
8) i'm loving working at the farm & the dairy this week. it's always nice to get some variety.
9) i really wish i was still in idaho.. this whole "lets spend spring break in logan" thing sucks.
10) there is absolutely no reason for me to put pants on today and i am so glad.

that about sums it all up. have an amazing day you guys!

jessica :)

i feel homesick tonight.

i would give so much just to see this sign.

i miss my family 

i miss not having to worry about things

i miss having money to spend

i miss my horse

i miss my bed

i miss eating really good food

i miss all my friends that are still in high school.

i just miss it.

(looks like there might be a good cry tonight.)

xoxo

jess.

this that and everything in between.

i'm feeling random today. 

we're going on 44 hours until kickoff for the USU v. U of U game.

i'm convinced there's a special place in hell reserved for people who act dumb on purpose for attention.

i'm that girl that eats like a lineman in the middle of two-a-days. what can i say?

yeah... i gotta stop sleeping through things.

my hair has grown like three inches since i've lived in utah.

kiss tomorrow goodbye by luke bryan is probably the sexiest song ever. hot dang.

these 3-5 hour nights of sleep should probably end soon.

first of all, i hate you. second of all, i want to kiss you.

and i think that's all for today, folks.

too much information about mens deodorant & other things.

mens deodorant. i have a few things to say about it.

1) i use it.
2) because i sweat.
3) it works ridiculously well.
4) the strongest women's deo is like the weakest men's.
5) i found one that smells like a girl so i bought it and holy cow, i'm impressed with the results.
6) i realize that this is really weird but hey, i just thought i'd share in case any other girls out there have the same problem.
7) the specific kind i use is old spice fiji... because it smells like a girl. i honestly don't know what man would ever use it because it's not man smelling. haha.
8) turns out, like half of the other girls that i know use guy's deodorant too... cause lets face it, women's deodorant sucks. it doesn't even work. lame.

other things.

1) sunday while i was getting ready, i looked at myself in the mirror and i kinda realized that i look older than i did a few months ago. i kinda like it.
2) you know how i feel about ryan lochte? well today he got upstaged by (1) sam mikulak and (2) tom daley. sorry ryan, you've now only earned the bronze medal in my book.
3) i've had a solid week of good hair days. i'm digging it.
4) logan in t-minus 18 days.

:)
jessica.

i'm weird.

is anyone else weird about their pillows and toothpaste?

like i have to have my pillow. i can't sleep without it.

i like it super squishy and moldable and hugable. haha. 

i sound retarded right now but i feel very strongly about my pillow.

see how squishy it is?

the other thing is my toothpaste.

i can only do this kind. 

its kinda salty and makes your mouth feel super fresh but not 

very many people like it.

but i have to have it.

so, 

moral of the story.

don't mess with my pillow or toothpaste.

that's all.

jessica :)

timmy & clara.

meet two of the besties. 

timmy & clara don't like each other very much. 

but they both love me and so somehow our friendships work? 

haha. 

this is THE best picture ever. at least from graduation night. 

timmy & i are both going to usu and are living in the same apartment building. 

we're planning on having many many adventures. 

feel free to join us. 

clara is going to byu. 

but so is landon & phillip & blake & rebecca & collette & mattie & madi & preston & like a billion and a half other people from my school. no big deal?

so i have a feeling there will be road trips. 

anyways. 

i just wanted to share this beautiful picture with you. 

:)

peace n' blessins

jessica :)

i have no post title.

i've been so good with eating healthy lately! if only i could kick my diet coke habit. it's everywhere. haha. 

told you. but i'm pretty good. if i drink any soda, i make myself drink the same amount of water because i hate being dehydrated. 

we went to lunch here today. (okay, lets be honest here, today i absolutely FAILED at my healthy eating. oh well, i guess i can start again tomorrow. )

this is the perfume i ended up getting. i love it a whole lot. :)

country chic from bath & body works. you can never go wrong there! 

i wish i had an unlimited amount of money to spend at bath & body... all the good smells... could be mine. (heehehe)

i've got two pairs of knockoff toms... and i really like them. 

and my legs are glaringly white. 

ew?

and look at my cute blonde hair. my aunt gave my hair a little facelift last week.

happy friday, y'all. 

loves,

jessica

the time when i finished high school.

f.r.i.d.a.y.

it's tradition for me and the best friend to take a "first sno cone of the season" picture. 

this was at our senior picnic. 

oh and i made y'all a video. you should watch it please.

it's REALLY awkward.

s.a.t.u.r.d.a.y.

my dad surprised me with a beautiful iphone 4s. 

a white one. yay.

it's beautiful.

s.u.n.d.a.y.

AND SO.
life is happy and good and i'm off to go ride my horsie.
loves,
jessica :)

technology is stupid.

is it better to message someone on facebook to talk

kenny chesney's the road and the radio. perfection. especially when it's sunny and hot outside. 

THREE. would you rather have no arms or no legs?

(ps. the twilight movies suck. real bad. in case you didn't already know.)

SEVEN. what is your dad's profession?

well. i guess to put it simply, he's an entrepreneur. he does lots of different things!

EIGHT. what is your favorite kind of ice cream?

umpqua chocolate peanut butter. or moose tracks. but mostly chocolate peanut butter. 

NINE. how do you want to be proposed to?

i want to go on a really long drive in the late summer/early fall or the springtime when it's starting to get warm (like around april/may) into the hills and he'll park his truck (yes. he will be driving a truck.) and we'll go walk around in the middle of nowhere. and then bam, he'll pop the question & i'll say yes and i'll get a hot man and a hot ring all at once.

TEN. tell me about the person you like right now.

hm. well, he's darn cute. he's tall (6foot1inch) with tan skin & light brown hair. he drives a truck and plays football. he's sarcastic and witty and laughs at his own jokes. we're great friends & i like him. 

ELEVEN. justin bieber, johnny depp, channing tatum. kill one, kiss one, marry one. 

kill johnny depp. he grosses me out. yes. kiss channing tatum. and marry justin bieber. because he's my age & i will make selena gomez totes jelly. hehe.

(hollerfornerdhumor)


and this was how my day started.
first day of second semester began with a lovely class we like to call ap calculus.
oh, how i love nerds.
& nerd humor.

granted, i'm considered one of the "smart" kids but under no circumstances would i make up math jokes or go into one of my ap classes just to do extra problems that i'm not going to get credit on. for fun.

looking at my new schedule today, i felt nerdy.

nerdynerdynerdy.
nerdy.

ap english, ap macroeconomic theory, ap gov, ap calc, hon chem, creative writing.
oh dear. goooodbye social life. (just kidding.)
yep.

nerdy.

i hope these appeal to your inner nerd.
leave a comment telling me about your nerdiness. :)

loves,
jess.
