Can you tell how happy I am to be traipsing through the countryside? Must figure out a way to make a permanent move.

Home

My shadow in a farm field near my home. How do you not love mountains like these? I was in awe for most of the time I was home last week. I had to remind myself to just sit back and enjoy and put the camera away. Welcome to the our home! The yellow doorContinue reading “Home”

A Behanding in Spokane by Martin McDonagh

Last Friday night I went to see Martin McDonagh’s (The Cripple of Inishmaan) new play A Behanding in Spokane. Christopher Walken stars as a man on a mission to find his hand that was cruelly taken from him in a “behanding” of sorts in, you guessed it, Spokane. He explains to his costars Sam Rockwell,Continue reading “A Behanding in Spokane by Martin McDonagh”

New York City

For as long as I can remember, New York City has lingered in the back of my mind as a place I really didn’t want to love. It’s so expensive. And it’s dirty. And everyone thinks that if you do theatre there, for some reason that show is infinitely better than the theatre done inContinue reading “New York City”

Great Talk

I love this talk. I don’t know how I missed it during the past General Conference, but if you want to be inspired, play this talk. Julie B. Beck. “The Lord will pour out his spirit upon the hand maidens in these latter days.”

Seeing Myself

In the first Harry Potter book, he comes across the Mirror of Erised. In this mirror, one can see their heart’s desire. Dumbledore warns Harry of the dangers of seeing your true heart’s desire. And perhaps we could judge that a person’s true nature is determined by their desires. In Doctrine and Covenants 76:94 weContinue reading “Seeing Myself”

The National live on Letterman

Sufjan Stevens arranged the vocals on this amazing performance. I love this band! Enjoy!

Connecting the Dots

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-204609026222503944# This is the graduation speech that Steve Jobs gave at Stanford University 3 years ago. I love it. He identifies 3 beautiful stories that lead to his success. It makes me so grateful for random moments of “failure”. Watch the speech. You’ll enjoy it.“You can’t connect the dots looking forward, you can only connectContinue reading “Connecting the Dots”

My Backyard

This is the view from my back yard. I know! It’s gorgeous! My little brother Nick is graduating from high school in two weeks. And I get to see it! Happy day! I’m going home in two weeks!

Guiding myself through the wilderness of doubt

My thoughts are jumbled up right now. There’s a fine line between being satisfied with mediocrity and loving yourself for who you are. I feel like I’m walking this line with myself right now. I want to love myself for who I am, but as a result, I become complacent and I stop trying toContinue reading “Guiding myself through the wilderness of doubt”
