this is my brother. he is the best

most of you know that my little brother and i have this weird bond.
we probably should have been twins.
he always knows how to brighten my day
here are some pictures to prove it.



He struggled in finding a halloween costume. but when he stumbled upon this it was like heaven on earth for him. oh my little bagpipe playing brother.



about 2 hours later i call my mom rolling on the floor in laughter telling her to check out peopleofwalmart.com. she says "oh i know that site is too funny. guess what? we are on our way to the emergency room. we were just at DI trying to find glasses for gretchens granny costume. samuel decided to tryout an ab roller and well, the roller got away from him."

only samuel could bust open his chin at DI.
(notice I didnt say THE di? you are welcome brittany.)

Oh samuel. you never cease to amaze me.

one of these days

One of these days the sky's gonna break
And everything will escape, and I'll know
One of these days the mountains are gonna fall
Into the sea, and they'll know

That you and I were made for this
I was made to taste your kiss
We were made to never fall away
Never fall away

One of these days letters are gonna fall
From the sky telling us all to go free
But until that day I'll find a way to let everybody know
That you're coming back, you're coming back for me

'Cause even though you left me here
I have nothing left to fear
These are only walls that hold me here
Hold me here, hold me here

One day soon I'll hold you like the sun holds the moon
And we will hear those planes overhead
And we won't have to be scared
We won't have to be, we won't have to be scared

You're coming back for me
You're coming back for me

You're coming back to me

[this is a new song in which i love.
it can be found here
itunes sure did a good job a little bit ago.]

i miss home

its true. i miss home. a lot. i have never been this homesick in my life. i cant really explain why either. what i would give to drop it all and leave. go back to boise. the people are cool there. really cool.
heres some pictures from fall break. only 28 more days till i get to go back! and then, CHRISTMAS will be here. that is utterly enjoyable to think about.

(sometimes i take pictures when i drive)
'

(this seems extremely poetic to me. it was screaming take a picture)


(my friends are cool. we carve pumpkins and name them: Mark, Mater, and Paul)


(i love sunsets. this was outside my backyard)


(sometimes my BFF little bro and i take bike rides. and i always have a camera)

We also took FAM pictures this weekend...im eager to see how they turned out. i will fill you in fellow bloggers. dont you even worry.

giving up

What if we stop having a ball?
What if the paint chips from the wall?
What if there's always cups in the sink?
What if I'm not what you think I am?

What if I fall further than you?
What if you dream of somebody new?
What if I never let you win, chase you with a rolling pin?
Well what if I do?

I am giving up on making passes and
I am giving up on half empty glasses and
I am giving up on greener grasses
I am giving up

What if our baby comes home after nine?
What it your eyes close before mine?
What if you lose yourself sometimes?

Then I'll be the one to find you
Safe in my heart

I am giving up on making passes and
I am giving up on half empty glasses and
I am giving up on greener grasses
I am giving up

I am giving up
I am giving up
I am giving up on greener grasses

I am giving up for you
I am giving up for you
I am giving up

i heart 2nd grade

i started my 2nd block of practicum this week.
i was super sad to leave my 5th graders last week because they are so dang funny.
but i was excited to start 2nd grade and learn from the differences in these 2 grades.
well the day was excellent. to say the least.
these kids are adorable.
i quickly learned all their names because they made SURE of it.
they were constantly asking me questions and trying to get to know me.
one boy asked if i had a husband.
when i said no he just simply said "its okay, i dont think thats a big deal"
most of them asked me if i like dogs or cats, or blue or pink better.
i was eating up every word :)
then there was one little girl that totally won me over,
and will forever be the coolest 2nd grader ever because of one simple thing...
their teacher asked me to take a few minutes and introduce myself.
so i told them the basics.
where im from. fav color. that i like to sing. blah blah blah
and then i told them that i have a weird obsession with collecting eiffel tower stuff.
this little girl quietly raised her hand and when i called on her she just stood up and said :
"vos cheveux sont jolis aujourd'hui"
standing in awe i recognized the words hair, and pretty
i was in complete shock
all she said was "your hair looks pretty today"
and then she just said "i love france too" and sat down
it made my life.
before i was leaving for the day she came up to me and said
"i like you so far whitney"
i said "oh good, cause i like you too."
happy day. i love 2nd grade..

drats!


i bought something on ebay for betty (my car)
an ipod converter is just what she needed.
yippee!
well... i should have read the fine print.
its coming from hong kong.
thats far away.
estimated shipping time is 7 to 15 business days.
thats 3 weeks from when i bought it.
im extremely upset about this.
pretty sure i will forget about it before it comes.
or i may just keel over and die of anticipation.
speed up mr. snail mail...








* i googled "waiting" in hopes of finding a good picture, and found this quite appropriate.

you cant judge a person based on their dreams

dreams are weird.
sometimes you wake up completely freaked out
and just want your mommy.
sometimes you dont remember your dream at all.
sometimes you wake up laughing your bum off.
and wonder where on earth that came from.
last week i had one of those dreams.
i literally woke up,
turned off my alarm,
and broke into absolute laughter.
kym told me to blog about it...
so here i go


i was standing in this empty field of golden grass all alone. i decided to dance, because no one was there to see me. then all of a sudden, im flying through the air, superman style. im up in the clouds just flying through the sky, when i realize there are hundreds of other people flying too, but they are all on broomsticks. they are shocked that i don't have a broom, so they bombard me with questions as to how i do it, and just how magnificent it is.
next thing i know, im at hogwarts.
im walking through the halls of the castle when around the corner comes ron weasley and hermoine granger holding hands. they come up and give me a big high-five, and tell me how cool i am. then i turn and i see harry. (dont worry... he was a much cuter harry that daniel radcliffe is)
oh harry. it was just like in the movies, where the orchestra started playing and the scene got brighter.
pretty sure it was love at first sight.

we talked and he invited me out on his next mission. yes...his mission to try and destroy voldemort...again.
so i went.
there were dragons.
and there was a little old woman trapped on a bridge.
we saved her.
then voldemort ran away.
and i made-out with harry himself.
it was epic....and there were ACTUAL fireworks.

I woke up after this...the fireworks in my dream turned out to be the rain outside my window.
and so i laughed.

a lot.
