Hairy Styles

due to my hefty dead ends and abnormal amounts of hair.

(hashtag thick hair problems)

I am determined to get my hair done this week.

Holler at me for ideas.

considering I am at that awkward length that only Jessica Alba can rock, 

help.

 But, can we discuss the amount of creativity in my post title? winning.

one of those weekends

Every once in a while, a weekend comes along where you just know its going to be remembered.

About a month ago an infinite weekend occurred. the kind John Hughes would make into an 80's movie.

tristens parents were gone, my parents were gone.

So we threw a couple of parties, hung out with college boys, tried beer for the first time, did a couple illegal things, and called it successful. 

actually were not that hardcore.

Instead, we stayed up past out bedtime, watched netflix and went to breakfast at denny's in the late hours of the night.

One for the books

I lack the patience to keep an actual journal, and I lack the organization skills to blog about something when it actually happens. In my life, I have a mental book called "The Greatest Days of Indy Severe"
scattered throughout the years. I have successes and I have brilliant failures, but the point of this is part of my new years mantra.
This can't always be true, but I feel like

"This is going to turn out well,  or make for a good story. Either way we're on the verge of greatness."

Hence the name of my blog. This is true for me in most cases. It typically reminds me of summer nights when this phone call occurred way too many times:

"Hey what are we doing tonight?"
"Everyone is going to masons"
"But we hate going to masons"
"I know, but we'll make it fun."

It sounds something like that, in between the conversations of me and Maddie Madsen.
And then you get us even a half a year later, laughing until tears stream, when we reminisce the best nights that we then considered "failures".

We would come home thinking, "that sucked."
When in the end, something great came out of every situation. A great memory. And if it takes us a year to realize that, so be it. This year will be filled to the brim of insane stories, and funny memories.

This post hardly made sense to me, so you can go ahead and question wether im sane or not. The point I am trying to get across is, most nights are great. most people are great. life is great.

So lets be great, I guess.

Hello there

I swear i am alive. 

and life is fantastic. 

Two Thousand & Twelve

Last night, my aunt and uncle told me that New Years gets worse and worse the older you get. When I found myself sitting at home, alone at the turn of the year, I suspected that they were right. And maybe its because Mormons prefer pizza, over crack, or Martinelli's over vodka, never the less, I was shocked to think that they were right. New Years has always been a brilliant time. The party holiday to cure your christmas hang over. Why I am not a party person? I would probably rather eat my feelings over 'Haylor' rumors, then spend it at a high school party. Thats just me, I guess. 

I crashed from my sugar high, and watched taylor swift give a nothing less than awful performance (sorry. Ill try to be nice) and sat to myself waiting for 2013. The ever cliche memories of the previous year flooded my head, and I get teary eyed thinking that this was the best year of my young life.

I have no doubt that this year will be better. So in  obnoxious picture form, I will share with you my favorite moments of 2012.

in 2012, I started high school, and Im that weird kid that actually likes it.

 pocket of Harry Styles, in case I didnt tell you that one.)

2012 was a good one for sure. Heres to 2013, I can feel 

the greatness already.

Holiday Cheermeister

No greater feeling than looking outside on christmas eve morning to a fresh new blanket of snow.

I might have cried.

Just last night I was talking my puppy out for a walk, and I realized there was no snow on our lawn. None. So I started becoming creative and thinking about how I can have fun on christmas without snow. And I thought of Rihannas song, "we found love"

So I changed it to,

"We Found Christmas"

You get the picture... "WE FOUND CHRISTMAS IN A SNOWLESS PLAAAACE"

But I'd gladly trade my brilliant song for some heavy duty snow from the heavens.

 

Its like I walked downstairs, and the beginning tune of "One Day More" from Les Miserables came on inside my head.

(If you don't know what that tune is, go look it up because it makes my story so much more dramatic)

And Ill add how Ironic that is, that there is "One Day More" until Christmas, and Les Miserables itself. So yeah, I guess my life is a movie.

I walk downstairs and I see the snow, and then I get my ugly crying face on, and run and hug my little brother. "Look brother, It snowed!" and then he stares at me. So I move on to mary. 

"Sister! Its snowing!" 

"Yes! Its Christmas Eve!'

I always knew she would come through.

Once Just once, I wanted a christmas miracle, hallmark story that I tell my british grand children about. So I figured, this is as good as it's going to get.

(Then we broke into song, "One day More! Another day another destiny!")

All i'm saying, is its Christmas Eve, and I feel the pressure to do every last thing to get into the spirit. So here is some holiday songs from this years cheermeister. (Myself, naturally.)

Have a freaking good christmas eve, my friends.

*insert festive holiday title here*

I typically dont understand, how its already december 22, and the day after tomorrow is my favorite day of the year. Yes, I am one of those weird kids who likes christmas eve way more than christmas. Im also one of those weird kids who talks to myself, and other things, never mind that though.

Time has gone by so incredibly fast. And since I am all about documentation, heres whats gone down these past couple of days.


+ Overnight  Volleyball tournament was too much fun, and one of my favorite nights I have ever had EVER.

+ Zoelaz and I made christmas cards and handed them out to everyone on Wednesday, and I think people hate us now.

+I miss Becca.

+ listening to Les Miserables all day every day. Their official twitter account tweeted me, and when you are as addicted to twitter and Les Mis as I am, thats enough to send you into cardiac arrest.

+If you thought that was bad, imagine my reaction when I found out Haylor was in Utah. We dont talk about this.

+Last night we went hot tubbing and driving, and played in the snow while in our swimming suits. We were very cold, but I like the cold sometimes.

+Maddy burnt her hair off while we were hunting down Harold.

+Cheer party at Sarah's and it was too funny. We watched the miley cyrus show, and it was "pretty cool" also, my christmas angel was hailey, and I love her forever. My coaches bought us new cheer sweats, and I think I could have died a happy woman right then and there.

+Maddie bought me a Justin Bieber shirt, and tristen  got me a One Direction poster. To say I love my friends would be an understatement. I have the best friends.

+Me, Brook and Kristi had a kneaders date, and then went to brooklyns and talked and talked and had one of the best nights ever. We finally decided that we should hang out with boys, and so were really thankful for Tim, Mason, Griffin, Houston, and Zack for always being such cool guys.

+ I have a british friend named holly, and she's as fly as they get.

+I am getting anxiety over the fact that I still haven't gone christmas shopping.

wish me luck, babes.

My parents are hot

Happy Anniversary to you two.

Without you, there would be no me.

no one direction obsession.

no miss indypendent

no indy blue severe.

But guys, im not really a selfish person.

I LOVE MY MUM AND DAD.

Peace.

Moment of Silence for my genius twix bar plan.

Its been six months since the best day of my life killllaaas!

SIX MONTHS.

favorite picture from vegas.

Its really cool to tell people that I spent my summer stalking a british boy band.

I appreciate you all enduring and respecting to some degree, my glorious obsession.

Yes, I have accepted that I have an obsession. big step. big step.

It seems like last month, I was smacking zoe as hard as I could, in complete disbelief as THE harry demonstrated the Cat Daddy infront of my eyes.  That was sixth months ago, to this day.

Part of me is sad, that this is just a distant memory.

Part of me is super excited for time to pass. My kids will have such a legendary mom.

Because, I mean. They're coming to Utah, next summer. And there are NO LIMITS this time around.

Gahhhh I just love them.
