i wish.

+ I really wish I understood all of the camera functions on my DSLR (or I guess I just wish I wasn't too lazy to just sit down and figure it out).

+ I really wish I lived close to all of my nieces and nephews. I want to snuggle them every day! I haven't seen three of them in almost two years! There is something seriously wrong with that.  Thank goodness for facetime!


+ I really wish I had an extreme fashion sense.

+ I really wish I lived close to all of my sisters. and two of them are leaving me for missions soon! I want to cry! because, duh--look how much fun we have together.


+ I really wish I had thought to include my brothers in the above statement (sorry, boys).

+ I really wish I was more consistent at wearing my retainers.

+ I really wish halloween was once a month. because seriously--what's more fun than coming up with costumes like these? (p.s. that lion mane is all real ladies and gents--no wig needed. big thanks to the inventor of conditioner after that night!)


+I really wish I didn't lose my earrings on a constant basis (confession time--whenever I buy a pair of earrings I really like, I buy two of the same pair. I've just learned to prepare for the inevitable--I'm going to lose them.)

+I really wish life was always this simple:

 + I really wish it was summer again. orrr I guess I'd be okay with cruising all winter. ;)

 + aaaand that also makes me really wish I was tan again.
 ^and again with that living-close-to-sisters thing!^

+I really wish this didn't happen at work on Friday. My sleeve got caught on my desk drawer--and wala! disaster.  five tacks stuck in my foot+a few bad words+20 mins later, and it was all back to normal.

+I really wish I didn't spend a savings on buying bobby pins. does anyone know the secret to not losing them? and does everyone's husband constantly complain about bobby pins in the carpet/bed/couch/counters? I thought he'd figure out by now that there's no such thing as a bobby-pin-free-home.

+I really wish I knew how facebook knows so much about me.

+ I really wish I could hug my grandpa one last time, breath in his fresh scent, and tell him how much I love him and miss him.

+I really wish it was still the weekend.

+I really wish that if you stuck through this whole post we could meet and become best friends--because, wow, you are a rockstar. and I really wish I was friends with rockstars ;)

Happy Monday!

  4. A girl's world is always full of bobby pins! If my husband finds one, he throws it out, so I'm usually on the hunt for one!

    1. seriously, isn't it the worst!? it's like a horrible circle: i dread wearing them because my teeth hurt so bad in the morning--so then I don't wear them for a few nights--and then the next time I do, it hurts. so I don't want to wear them the next night. you'd think i'd smart up and just wear them every night...ugh ha!

  8. I wish it was summer tooo!!! I'm SO sick of winter, I can hardly stand it anymore. I'm also sick of being pale, a tanning bed is very tempting at the moment.
