Treasure you find.

when you deep clean your room!

from an LDS book i copied this section out of it....get a kick out of this.

A.C.T. Formula:

ANIMATION:
#1: smile! it may take some effort, and some people dont smile. So practice1 minute a day in the mirror! it sends the right signal "you're alright" or "you're more then alright!"

#2: Speech patterns! pick up your tempo but not too fast. {laughing and humor are also forms of voice animation}

#3: Eye Communication! yes, women spend time with make up for attracting attention to their eyes, but its only good in moderation. ALSO- TRY WINKING DURING A CONVERSATION-FLIRTATIOUS? YES! BUT EFFECTIVE! also "stare technique!"

#4: Posture & sit & walking! sit up straight & more lively.

#5: Listening! focus on what he is saying and respond enthusiastically. Laugh with, not at, someone in shared humor.

#6: Dress and Attire! Dress modestly & use appropriate use of jewelry. a girl must be attractive visually before she is anything else.

CLOSENESS:
"Each of us has about 18-24 inches of 'personal space' around us. when you allow someone into that space is showing acceptance. When we stand or sit close to someone we communicate interest (or disinterest). The GOLDEN MEAN which means not too much and not too little."

TOUCH:
the most effective of all. touch means (1) we are comfortable with ourselves (2) we feel equal to & comfortable with the other person. It can be done through a handshake, embrace or hug, simple touch of the arm, shoulder elbow or biceps.
Here's the catch: you can't expect for it to work only once or immediate result. don't judge it until you've tried it. THE FIELD IS WHITE & READY TO HARVEST.


I must have known i was going to need this eventually!!! :) Good thinking ahead kenz! hahaha

Sometimes i get down on myself...

...on the subject of dating.

I seriously wonder what is wrong with me!

Literally I go to BYU.

The dating capital of the world and i have been on a total of 3 dates my whole freshman year!  

Some of you reading this literally are thinking

(i can hear you now..)

"you are only 19, chill!!"

 but if you saw how many 19 year olds are getting

married right now you too would think i am a freak!

i seriously find myself thinking....

I am not pretty enough!

I am not smart enough!

should i like sports more?

i'm not outgoing enough!

i am not skinny enough!

all what it all boils down to is me feeling lik

e.....i am not enough?

I see girl and girl all different.

short. tall. thin. fat. blonde. brunette. short hair. long hair. tan. white. sporty. girly. blue eyes. brown eyes.

and they ALL have boy friends...

literally it is beginning to feel like i am the only one who doesn't have a special someone.

When did it become...If you aren't dating someone you are a loser?

To be honest i would love to have someone love me and get to love them in return.

someone to share all these moments with in my life.

don't get me wrong i still have standards for the guys i date i wouldn't just go out with the next joe blow because i haven't been out on a date in a while but i would like to feel some kind of interest from some normal guy. someone who has had experience dating girls.

and then you read blogs like this from guys who apparently are just dating all the wrong girls and you wonder....why can't you be dating me??

 I would never do that to you. I am different!

Why can't guys see that???

You know this quote::::

Girls are like

apples on trees. The best

ones are at the top of the tree.

The boys don't want to reach for

the good ones because they are afraid

of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they

just get the rotten apples from the ground

that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples

at the top think something is wrong with

them, when in reality, they're amazing.

They just have to wait for the right

boy to come along, the one

who's brave enough

to climb

all the way

to the top

of the tree.

...........well i guess i am still just waiting for that guy to come along and pick me.......


Until then...I will contine to be happy just being me!

Daily lunch conversations always end up revolving around the same thing.

Today's was especially awesome:
Shae: "On a scale from one to ten what would you give yourself for your flirting abilities?"
Me: "Well I am a friendly person so i am not really sure if i come across as flirty or friendly."
hahahahaha Laughter all around.
Shae: "Well in your opinion what would you say?"
Me: "Well i don't think i am very good....so i would give myself a 4.
Shae: "No, i would say you were more like a 6, but you could step up your game."
Me: "I could most defiantly step up my game."

Moments later in the same conversation

Me: "Guys are so stupid."
Matt: "Guys aren't really that stupid, we are just scared."
Shae: "So what..."
Jaymie: "Stupid or not i never go on dates."
Matt: "Why not?"
Jaymie: "Because no one asks me."
Matt: "so ask them out."
All Girls: "hahaha yeah okay."
Matt: "no really."
Me: "okay i want your totally honesty...what do guys in general think about girls asking them out? does it hurt their pride, it is weird?"
Matt: "well that depends on the situation..."
Me: "Okay?"
Matt: "well if you guys are good friends and hang out then no it really isn't weird, but if you guys hardly talk and the girls just asks you then it is weird."


How to tell if a girl likes you.
Shae: "Okay so she is texting you almost everyday. She wouldn't want to seem desperate but she does want you to know something is there. She play hits you. You have a lot of eye contact when you talk. She smiles and giggles a lot around you.
She invited you to hang out often."
Matt: "Well then... my inbox is empty, i don't get hit a lot, and no one really looks me in the eyes for longer then 2 seconds and I only hang out with guys."

I just love dating advice conversations. in the cannon. with darling friends.

or days when you spill all your guts out about boys and make each other feel so much better afterwards.

.....Basically I LOVE BYU. :)
