oh my.

I'm counting down the summer. only a few more weeks and i'll be back at school

Right now I feel like school is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.. but i know that once i get back into the grind of school I'm going to be longing for the carefree days of summer.

But anyways this week:

I made an Earring holder.

All I used was a screen(from a window), ribbon, buttons, spray paint. oh and a hot glue gun.

Also yesterday my sister and I went to a Progressive dinner and it was very interesting...

all the people in her ward that were from latin countries cooked food from their native countries. we went to a house and had Guatemalan food. it was pretty good. But the diamond in the rough of food last night was this baby:

White Corn Guacamole

we snatched the recipe and made our own batch today

White Corn Guacamole

Ingredients:

-1 avocado, Diced fine

-1/2 cup sweet white corn

-1/4 cup black beans

-1/4 cup Jicama , diced fine

-1/2 cup onions, diced fine

-1/2 of one red bell pepper, diced fine

-1 handful of cilantro, chopped

-1 lime

-1/2 teaspoon of salt

Combine in a medium bowl, serve with tortilla chips

try not to eat the whole bowl in one sitting: that's the hard part.

Motives

I was once told that "guys and girls can never become just friends. they may end up being just friends but at some point somebody on one end had motives" I thought this was ridiculous. and I don't think its true.. but then i got to thinking and I guess its possibly true. They may not be romantic motives.. they may be selfish motives like "hey they drive a nice jeep wrangler. I like those cars. i want to ride in it" boom friendship formed because of that reason. When you get to meet the person a lot of times those initial motives melt away. But it made me sit back and think upon the relationships I've developed. I wonder what caused them to want to get to know me better.

I think its interesting.

I liked this video too.
There is so much world out there to see. It makes me want to take a semester off and travel.

we'll see...
