when your eyes are all painted so natural blue...

So I'm pretty sure I am overloading by putting all of these pictures in ONE post...sorry 'bout that. This was the Sat. after Preview weekend. Sara and I ran around downtown-it was fantastic.
I was trying to climb the wall in the above picture-to no avail.

Hey! That's my camera! =)

Ahhahaha This was my imitation of someone who performed at "Mountain Affair" (he was a spectacular musician...but an over-the-top performer)

Although the picture above was a fail (ahem, SARA) I do like it =)

I threw this in for Sara...This guy walked around Covenant with TWO GINORMOUS cameras...we were so jealous.

mmmm The title. *british Sara*

I love this dress-it's totally my new favorite!

you see, I rolled down the hill..then I was VERY dizzy...

I've had a good week so far. I'm in an awkward point in my year right now, kinda in-between...Weird. Yesterday, I retook the test I "flunked" and got an EXCELLENT grade, that I'm happy with. YAY! Today, I processed the Jenny film, and I must say, a couple of the pictures are gorgeous, you're so cute Jen. I've been pretty content lately and that feeling is really good. BUT I've also felt incredibly creative, but I don't have any outlets! I have no time to sit and paint or draw or sew or crochet or write or ANYTHING (ugh)...the other day, for a literature assignment, I wrote haikus. These are my two favorites:

My long hair tangles
The harsh wind blows harsher still
Fall's monster, set free

Bright reds and yellows
Falling, swirling, and spiraling
Calm leaves, now chaos

Ha, I just did a silly facebook thing called "status cloud". Stupid as it was, it's interesting to see what words I've said most in my status. Here's my personal favorites: Christmas, Day, Ever, Friends, Happy, Home, Know, Life, Love, Really, Sings, Something, Song, Things, Time, Today and Tomorrow.
The ironic things: God, is right next to Good. I know that's alphabetical...but it's true! Apparently I talk about cocaine...

Anyway, have a great rest of the week. I promise, once I figure out how to work my scanner, I'll post pictures that I've printed!

I couldn't think of a clever title so I put this.

My oh-so-happy floral skirt....

This is what we did today =) Oh yay for family pictures...hahahaha I love my family...

This is the trail that's randomly in my neighborhood. I took Jen there to take pictures. I want to show it to everyone. The trail starts on a street and ends in some other world with gorgeous colors and amazing textures. Can you believe people drive their four-wheelers around it?!

We were basically trapped inside the fort when it started pouring rain! LOOK! A RAINBOW! That made my day.

Hanging out with Jen on Friday was pretty much the best thing ever. I've missed her so much! We're resolved that it's going to happen more often. I've had a great weekend, but now it's time to buckle down and start the week. Ew.

Mary Emily Vatt

is having one of those days where you want to just sleep alot and then do something extreme...like cut your hair really short and buy an accordion...
That's really how I feel right now.
So I'm going to do homework. I'll write about my life and these pictures tomorrow.

Swingfest 2009

These are some fun pictures Sara took of me!




I attended Swingfest downtown for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised at how fun it was! The atmosphere and the music was great. Also, the people that came were pretty great themselves. It was a perfect night with perfect weather...

I've put off uploading all these pictures from Sara and I's Heritage Park outing. We took SOOO many. But, I needed to start sometime...

Anyway, the first day of Chatt State was actually quite fun. I love my photography teacher and I can't wait to get started. How are you?

CAN YOU FEEL A BRAND NEW DAY!?

Ahhh the wiz...

I'm starting community college tomorrow...THAT should be interesting...I have had tons of free time and I have been very productive...but that all ends tomorrow.
I wore a guys shirt to Starbucks last week. It was amazing...I'm now hooked on them. Guys shirts, that is...I've been hooked on Starbucks since birth...practically. Sara and I met up to plan our "vlog"...which we started, last night. It's going to be something fun to do this year...

It's such...such a perfect day.

You know when you have a day (or a couple in sequence) where everything just goes well? I'm experiencing that right now.

I babysat three beautiful children on Thursday. They had a treehouse in their backyard. I mean, a genuine, tree-in-the-middle, square, rickety, treehouse! It made me so happy. Of course, I HAD to be cliche and play "pirates". But OH, was it fun. All four of us were exhausted by the time I had to leave, but it was so worth it!

Yesterday was the homeschool book fair. Which, though crowded, stressful, and quite humorous to watch, it was actually very fun. I got to see some interesting people I don't normally see everyday! Later in the day, while my mom was working registration, I lounged about in the grass behind Camp Jordan. That was so fun! I got some funny looks, but I was in the shade and the breeze was blowing-nothing else mattered.

Later that day, I went to Heritage Park with Sara. It was loads and loads of fun...I'll talk about that more tomorrow I think.

I finally posted some pictures! I hope you enjoy!
