AWKWARD AND AWESOME SATURDAY

IT'S BACK.

I just wanted to make sure you could see my rockin hair.

okay, but disclaimer: it's rather short.

Awkward:

1. walking to school through the gold's gym parking lot. Guy sitting on cement post just clipping his finger nails...

2. 45 degrees and sunny=shorts on campus

3. german teacher on moving to illinois: "I need to learn how black people talk." she's german, give her a break.

Awesome:

1. Pi day.

2. Carrying a pie around campus, almost dropping it, and as you walk away you hear someone shout, "NICE CATCH!" i'm glad someone appreciates me.

3. Some photography major girl said my hair was cool and she asked if she could photograph me. #model

4. new shoes when all of your other ones are broken. I swear mom, i needed them.

okay byeeeeeeeeeeeee

awkward and awesome saturday!

i just really love mozzarella sticks.

i had sonic for the first time today. when we pulled up to the drive through and i saw mozzarella sticks, i fell in love. then when we turned the corner of the building and saw the above sign, it was a good day. but honestly that hamburger wasn't anything special for me, y'all.

awesome:
1. i was so productive today: 60 pages of psych reading, a clean room, cookies baked, a run, and a trip to barnes and noble. bam.
2. went to the jazz synthesis concert last night with the lovely ladies downstairs.
3. my religion professor trying to explain why the jews hated the samaritans: "in terms that this generation would understand, to the jews the samaritans were mud-bloods." thank you for helping me understand.

awkward:
1. "boy-that-fell-on-melanie-on-the-bus" sat right next to me the other day on the way home. he kept turning to me like he was about to say something, and then never did. sufficiently awkward.
2. i have found yet another thing to get obsessed over and waste my time with. today i started the hunger games. i'm such a conformist.

and that's all folks!

Awksome Saturday!

don't worry about it, melanie is just getting her head chopped off.

Apparently dying Melanie's hair has become a pastime for us. Other Saturday activities included:

attempt #1 at oreo stuffed brownies.

Melanie's "Kelli Conquers the Mammoth"

Finding out I don't have to save $200 to see my best friend before he leaves for brazil? priceless.

Awkward:
1. The jacket I decided to wear on my run today decided to ride up on me the entire time. Kelli the one-armed runner! I should join the circus.
2. Melanie and I start heading up to our apartment and these guys walking by say, "Oh, hey guys, we'll be there around 11:30." stop. not funny, just weird.
3. guys talking behind us in stake conference: "dude, she has pretty hair. she's only a senior, but I figure when I get back she'll have had two years in school."
4. Crawling over everyone to get to your seats at a performance.
5. Only having one class, going on campus looking like a hot mess, and having everyone stare at you. can't be tamed.
6. My two physical science review sessions:
             1. The TA, shoeless, starts off the session with the dinosaur and shark of the day. This was followed by a five minute yoga session.
             2. Two boys were holding up rage face signs throughout the entire review. Towards the end, one raises his hand and asks the TA, "what do you know about wild boars?" and then proceeds to just walk out.  
     

Awesome:
1. walking around campus and hearing a guy talking to someone on the phone: "Okay, I see you now. Oh! You look pretty!"
2. Matty Patty got his departure date extended to April!
3. The Road to El Dorado.
4. Our apartment after cleaning checks.
5. Karoline's mom totally went grocery shopping for us again.
6. spending the rest of saturday night singing disney love duets with Melanie

Awkward and Awesome Saturday!

you're looking at my morning right here, folks. 'twas blissful.

Awkward:

1. balloons as gifts for valentine's day. i mean, what is romantic about latex and helium?

2. speaking of valentine's day, driving through the apartment complex to see two people dancing "romantically" outside the multipurpose building. the girl was so not into it, and everyone could drive by and see. not a success, boy. not a success.

3. the other day on the bus a lady sat down and started talking to me. which is fine. but then she proceeded to hand me papers and papers of church quotes. we're talking about 50 pages, here. she spent the whole bus ride handing me one at a time.

4. having my interviewer bring up josh powell because i'm from puyallup, and handing me a piece of paper with a capella artists to look up.

Awesome:

1. Karoline always manages to get boys to do our dishes. last week a kid was over and did them. you win in my book, sir.

2. The BYU Singers concert last night. it was so fantastic I can't even describe it. so nice to get a break from school and projects and just listen to music for two hours.

3. My morning. it has consisted of Doctor Who, reading, flickr, and just laying in bed.

4. Three-day weekend! it is going to be a rejuvenating weekend. 

5. I'm completely done with my music ed stuff. completely out of my hands now, which feels great.

Hope your weekend is productive! And if it's not, maybe it isn't supposed to be.

it's thursday!

awkward:
1. the blurriness of this picture.
2. the conversation I had with a boy that sat next to me in German the other day:
     boy: "What's your name, again?"
     me: "...Kelli."
     boy: "Oh I knew it started with a K, but I didn't want to just guess. You look like the type
     of person that would get mad if I got your name wrong."
3. In church choir on Sunday, the tenors were singing this super high line that the Sopranos double. So one of the tenors asked something along the lines of, "Why are we doubling them, they sound fine by themselves!" And of course I had to respond, "Because tenors and sopranos are soulmates!" Leading to the director saying to said tenor, "SHE SAYS IT'S BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE SOULMATES."
So now I look like the crazy stalker that thinks that boy and I are soulmates. which is not what I meant AT ALL.
4. when your mom is the only fan of your blog.
5. trying to take jumping pictures outside your apartment complex.
6. the result  (see above):

7. The fact that I look like I'm holding a glowing orb. What is that all about? In most of my pictures lately I've had these spots around me. I'M HAUNTED, GUYS.

Awesome:
1. While all you Western Washington folk are freezing and getting trapped under trees, Provo today was a balmy 46 degrees. Didn't even wear a coat walking around.
2. This:

     why yes, I did call a famous writer a bully after he emotionally traumatized me. (in a
     good way...)
3. full cupboards and refrigerator after grocery shopping. so many options!
4. The coat I keep stealing from Karoline.

fun fact: the dad in "A Christmas Story" graduated from the same high school as me. bam. i'm almost famous.

Awkward and Awesome Thursday! (which may or may not continue to be held on Thursdays.)

Inspired by The Daybook (She's F A B U L O U S).


Awkward:
1. When the girl sitting next to you in class is having very LOUD stomach problems.
2. Having a stalker all last semester, and suddenly he's disappeared off the face of the planet.
3. Starting a blog.
4. All your posters falling off of your walls as if they're in some little pact. I like to think one poster is suicidal, and all the other posters say, "If you jump, I jump!" and down, down they go.
5. Continuing to watch Pretty Little Liars when it is a terrible, terrible show that has no closure. Why do I do these things?
6. One of your professors spending almost his entire lecture telling you why you should not pursue that major.


Awesome.
1. Three day weekend!
2. Not having class until 1 on MWF
3. Nerd dance tomorrow!
4. The fact that the dance theme is nerd and I therefore have to barely alter my appearance to keep with the theme.
5. Roommate winning a contest that provided our apartment with a giant pack of juice-boxes to thus supplement my growing addiction.
6.  That little beauty on the 16th.

fun fact of the day: electra is the Greek word for amber.
