Mr. Roboto

BEHOLD MY FIRST SNOWMAN
His name is Herman Roboto Jones... Mr. Jones for short.

This is my crack team of Snowman builders.

Taggart, the ever tactful packer of snow.

Robbie, who trekked miles to roll the snow that now makes up Mr. Jones' torso.

And Ben, the very sleepy, who due to excessive finals related stress did not really participate in the building portion, but did come up with the idea to give Herman antennae.

Me and my Creation.

It's ALIVE! Mua haha ha ha!

I love him so

PS. Getting overexcited + Jumping up and down in deep snow = Fall on your butt :P

ps. NEW HAIRCUT

On a whim I decided to cut my hair.
And of course, I didn't go the normal route. I sat myself down in front of my bedroom mirror, grabbed a pair of kitchen scissors and went at it.

DISCLAIMER! DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!

What I originally intended to be 2 inches turned into about 8 or 9... When I went to Rachel to clean up what I had done, she wisely suggested that we go to a professional.
She had to take of another 3-4 inches, but managed to salvage some hair :P

This was my inital reaction...

What!? It's really gone!?

Well, I guess it's not so bad... I think I like it :)

Hahaha, like it?

It just goes to show that a little spontaneity goes a long way. I never would have had the courage to do this on my own... but I love it.

The Boy

I've been avoiding blogging for a while now, especially about a certain development in my life. I figured today (mostly out of sheer boredom) that I should just bite the bullet and BLOG. I guess I will take this opportunity to confirm the rumors that I'm sure have been circulating...

Meet Ben.

We met in our Family Home Evening group.
He was shy...

and I was loud...

so, of course it was a little while before we got to talking.
What finally brought us together was my fully stocked kitchen and his bottomless pit of a stomach. So, we started hanging out.
Lo and behold, the day before Homecoming I found this outside my door.
He defineitely gets points for creativity.

That was October 10th, and we've been dating ever since.
