Surprises, Confetti, Dancing, and a Paper Shredder.

Life is Gr8. This photo is Gr8. Confetti is Gr8+Messy. Holllllllerr.

Time flies, and life walks.

Time seems to go by so fast, lately. I hate it. The end of the school year is ending, and some of my best friends are going away to college. I'm going to miss them so much. Even the time day-by-day goes faster... It's past midnight, and it seems like it should still be 8:00 p.m. I've got to start being careful, and making sure I don't run out of time... not only with homework, and the recent speed up in photography... but also in my Junior experiences. Wish me luck.

Gaining, and losing RESPONSIBILITIES.

Gaining:
I'm really, really excited for next year. I was elected/chosen to be "Historian" in the Desert Hills Executive Council, and I'm so stoked! It's going to be very busy... but a lot of fun at the same time. :) I'm nervous for the responsibilities that I have to take on, but I know I can do it!

Losing:
Today I was released from my calling of Laurel Class President. I'm so sad to be released! I loved being President so much! It made me feel so good to be able to help everyone out so much, especially Phoebe! I'm so thankful for the time that I was given to be Laurel Pres. It was such a great experience. :) Good luck to Courtney! The new President! You'll have SO much fun! :) And Brink and I will be right there by you to help you out with whatever you need!

Life is good, when good things happen.

I had a Bad spell there for a while... but I broke it! And at a good time too! I just feel good lately! I've been hangin' out with cool people, I've been making new friends, while still having fun with my golden great friends!

This week was Exec. running week, for school, and I've loved every minute of it! I had a couple of nervous break-downs... but everything turned out to be better than I expected! My party was SO amazing! I got to work with people that I really don't hang out with on a regular basis, and I made some great friends! They're definitely people that I'll hang out with in the future! Tomorrow is the assembly where we give our speeches/videos, and the student body votes! I'm so excited... but so nervous! I learned a lot about myself through running for Exec., and this has been a good experience, even if I don't make it! Nothing can break my High. :)

One of the best things that's happened this week... was just barely. :) A few minutes ago, I decided... hmm... I think I'll check my grades! So random... but I'm so glad I did, because....... I GOT AN A- IN PRE-CALCULUS LAST QUARTER! A's across the board! :) I don't even care that two of them were A-'s. :) This year has been SO difficult! I've had all A's up until this point... and I think I might be getting myself back on track this semester! I missed SO much school, because 3rd quarter is "orchestra month", but I still came out on top of everything! :)

I think I'm getting the photo-bug back. :) Winter really killed me... I hated it. No one wanted pictures! :( As of right now, I have FIVE Photoshoots booked for March, and April! :) I'm so excited, and VERY in need of them! :) haha.

Friends, School, Church, Family, Chores, Photography... EVERYTHING has been going my way, and I'm going to take advantage of it, and appreciate it while it's here! :)

Turn it Off.

Turn off the lights,
Turn off the sound.
Turn off the phone,
and look around.

You'll be surprised,
at what you see.
Look in the mirror,
and choose who you'll be.

Turn off the greed,
and think before you say...
There's someone out there,
Who feels the same way.

The world's the big picture,
It's not a close up of you.
To make it all clear,
What will you do?

Who needs sleep?

I want Summer
I want to be a Senior
I want to be on Exec. Council
I want this next week to run smoothly
I want to go to the beach

I'm sick of waiting
I'm sick of homework
I'm sick of Math/Financial Lit/Chemistry
I'm sick of neglecting photography
I'm sick of waking up early

I wish it were 100 degrees outside
I wish 3oh!3 would have a concert here...
I wish that more flowers would bloom!
I wish I saw a shooting star
I wish my senior friends weren't leaving. :(

gr8est week everr.

Bragging rights? Yes... I have them.

I HAVE THE BEST FRIENDS EVERRRR!

They are the gr8est! This week was so much fun! I went to the river a ton with my frennnlys. We played board games, we ate pizza, we looked for a secret underground safe, we made cookies, we made videos, we took pictures, we slept over, we snuck out of the house at 3:00 a.m.... It was PRICELESS! We did so many fun things, and I won't ever forget this spring break! :)



^Last night Dom came over to help me finish up my student council campaign video. (which is so amazing by the way... I've watched it about 50 times... literally.)

^C8y and I had a best frenn sleepover last night, and went to... like 20 minutes of church today.. haha. It was soo great, and I'm so glad we did! We listened to "John Wall" and watched Romy and Michelles High School Reunion all night long... :) With gas prices rising, and things getting busier, we haven't had time to do ANYTHING! Not okay. But we had a ba-last this weekend. :) SOO fun! Thank you Caity! You are the Gr8est! :)


I hope everyone had a fantastic spring break. :) Because I did! It was one of the best so far. :) I didn't take as many photos as I wanted... but you know what? I'm not planning on dying any time soon... so I've got time. I'm not mad at all. :)


P.s...........

♥My loves Lately♥

I'm addicted to what I like to call 'light scents' lately... These are my two favorite right now.

^Cool Citrus and Basil

^ Green clover and Aloe

I'm addicted to B&B and I'm so not mad bout it. :)

Taylor's growing on me... :)

Today, I heard the song "Mean" by Taylor Swift (who I normally HATE the music from...) I love this song! It's so great. It's so true!

This is the part that really spoke to me...

"You, with your switching sides,
And your walk by lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again,
As if I don’t already see them.
I walk with my head down,
Trying to block you out cause I’ll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again."

I've felt like this before. I know I've probably done this to my friends before as well, which makes me want to cry....

::NEW LEAF::

I'm going to start being a "builder", instead of a "wrecking ball", As one of my old Young womens leaders once said to me. I'm going to start ignoring the things that people do to bug me, and start noticing the things I like about people. I'm going to start with my closest friends... so if you get an e-mail, text, or letter from me in the next few days, you can know what's fueling it. :) I know probs only Johners, Janers, and a few Bragade membs read this blog... but I dont' care! I hope that someone out there will read this, and start noticing the good in people too! Wish me luck on my venture! :)

Hi. My name is Nicole Winona, and I'm going through TCBY's Rainbow Ice Cream Withdrawal.

I was face-stalking approx. 5 minutes ago, because I can't get to sleep, (can I get an I.N.S.O.M.N.I.A.?) and I saw a picture of rainbow Ice cream, and it took me back to the good ole' days, when the Artic Circle in Washington (by the mall) was a TCBY. Every Wednesday, my mom would take me to TCBY, and she would buy me a cup of rainbow Ice cream. I haven't thought about it since, but now, I WANT SOME!


Oh, and Also, I spent the past 3 hours watching "Are you afraid of the Dark?" one of the Nickelodeon shows of the 80's and 90's. Hol.ler.

Living off the map.

This is the newest show that I have been watching on Television. :) The one or two hours a week that I have time, and that it's available for me, haha. Off the Map is on the News Channel, and I absolutely love it! Aside from the attractive guys, It's about a group of doctors who live in the Jungle of South America, and they help out the Native people. It's such a great show, and I def. recommend jumping onto the band wagon! :) Don't even worry if you haven't seen the first few episodes, because it's just like NCIS, you can totally jump on at any time. You'll be filled in on the jungle relationships within the first fifteen minutes, I guarantee it. :)

'This object is unable to be liked'...

Every single morning this week I have layed in bed, and convinced myself that I'm staying home because I'm sick (I really am sick). Then every morning, I get up, get dressed, and go to school, sick. Don't you just hate it when you get to a point where you have to go to school even when you're sick? I sure do. Awes.

Featured? Holler.

Uhmm... Hi. So I was featured?! I'm way not mad about it at all... click on the link above, and scroll down until you see my name, above my picture, of our Utah Desert! Holler! :)

As of late...

Lately I've had an obsession with watching videos on Youtube... At first I started watching music videos, and now I've learned how to make playlists on Youtube, so that all you have to do is activate the playlist, and it automatically plays all of the videos on it. Uhm... coolest thing ever? People upload whole movies to Youtube! Today I watched Cowbelles, last night I watched Jumping Ship, the night before I watched The other me... I love ittttt!


Lately I've been wearing my Grandpa's old cardigans, and the other day I wore one with pockets, and when I put my hand inside, I found an Albertsons coupon from 1995... obvi, we use these jackets a ton, right?
