I was actually a little scared of this outfit at first. It was the first time I have tried mixing prints together. If you can't see by the pictures, my little blazer is white and blue pinstriped. Paired with the scarf, its a bold move. Think I pulled it off?
And yes, I am posing on the shower/bathtub. Give me a break...self timer is trickier than it seems!
As per request, here is the way to win said fair lady's heart:
~ I’m a planner. Get over it. I will plan things down to the last minute. Which means if we don’t have a plan, I get stressed. Not that being spontaneous is a turn off, because I totally love playing it by ear sometimes, but if it’s a date…dude come on. Have a plan!
~ I really really like kissing you. Please kiss me back. Preferably when I’m least expecting it. But also when I am expecting it. Cuz if you don't I might get worried. I'm totally insecure when it comes to stuff like this.
~ Guitar. You got that up your sleeve and its over. I’m yours.
~ Be reverent and sing in church. It’s not impressive when the deacons in my ward act more mature than you.
~ I’m weird. I’d appreciate someone who not only tolerates it but embraces it and does weird right along side me. A partner in crime {or weird}, so to speak.
~ Don’t be afraid to tell me how/what your feeling. That shows me you care enough about me to be honest. Even if the truth hurts, it’s better than being left in the dark or being lied to.
~ Take me out for Mexican food. Or better yet, cook me up some Mexican food.
~ Talk about your mission. It's super attractive.
~ I’m a cuddle bug. If we aren’t cuddling while watching a movie/similar activities, I’ll wonder what is wrong. Which probably is immature/dramatic, but sorry. That’s that.
~ Put emotion in your texts. It makes alllll the difference. But don’t overload the J…that’s a little gay.
~ I will fall for you in about two seconds. After that, I’ll want to spend all my time with you. Don’t let me though; it’s good for us to have time apart so we can appreciate the time that we do spend together.
~ I have a super hard time expressing myself. Please be patient with me. It takes me awhile to formulate the response that I feel is adequate so if I shrug off a serious question or act indifferent, just know that in the back of my mind the wheels are turning. And I will get back to you. I just don’t want to butcher it.
~ Chivalry is HOT. Not just being mr. manners with me, but with your friends, with your family, with your teachers, with strangers! I’m watching you like a hawk.
~ Please be prompt. I hate waiting, I’m super impatient. I just want to see you ok!!
~ Ok I love it when guys offer to pick me up from places, like after class. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world walking up to your car instead of having to walk home.
~ It means a lot to me when you do things with me regardless of if you like the activity or not. It shows me that it doesn’t matter what we are doing, it’s just being with me that makes it fun.
~ Back rubs/massages/playingwithmyhair = melting.
~ Please use clean language. Swearing or crudeness is so not manly. It's disgusting.
~ Make a fool of yourself in front of me. It puts me on your level. Perfection in my opinion is being imperfect.
~ BE YOURSELF. Trust me, the real you is better than anything you can fake.
~ I’ll die of melting if I see you with kiddies. Or at a park. Yes, take me to the park and swing with me. Then chase me around and fall down the slide with me. Then fall asleep in the grass with me in your arms.
~ Being able to fix things is super attractive. Especially when it’s your car. And let me help you with/teach me your trade. Working together is soooo fun.
~ Take pictures with me/of me. It lets me know you want to remember this moment.
I could go on foreverrrr, but I think this is enough for now. Now if only guys could make a list like this for us girlies......life would be so much easier!
Anyways.
Want in on a little secret? I had a 4-day sleepover with a boy. eeek. Before you report me to the Honor Code police, here me out.
I mean, who could resist this dreamy little charmer?
This is Marvin. He's a chameleon if you weren't sure. We've been keeping each other company while his daddy-o is out of town. Stupid business trips. Isn't he a stud though? Those horns and green complexion are totally working for me. I'm even thinking about adding those requirements to my "broom" list above. We've had an excellent time together - you know, watching crickets being slurped up and hearing them being crunched and eaten while putting on your makeup is the perfect way to start the morning. Actually I take that back. Its disgusting and it makes me want to gag.
In other news, I, along with every other person aged approx. 14-30 living in/around the state of Utah, took part in the Festival of Colors last Saturday! It was glorious. The Festival of Colors, part of the tradition of Holi, is an Indian celebration of life. Every year they gather at their temples for a variety of rituals and celebrations. The main event is the Festival of Colors where you throw colored chalk on each other. It sounds lame but its actually probably one of the funnest things I've done. They have chalk throwings every 2 hours where they have a countdown and then everyone in the crowd throws up chalk and you can't breathe. You can't inhale. You can't see. CHALK IS EVERYWHEREEE. its glorious. and horribly uncomfortable. But oh so worth it. Because you end up getting pictures like this:

| Me failing to look happy...cuz about 2 minutes previously I got a handful of chalk chucked right into my eye. Yes, it was as painful as it sounds. |

| Holi Krishna! Besides. Who doesn't want to be multi-colored?? That was rhetorical. Til next time, susanna |
Poor guy.
