Pretty Much Great: April 2010
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 25, 2010. So, want to hear something funny that happened in church today? There's this guy in my ward who goes down to San Diego all the time on business or for fun. Since last September or so when he found out I'm from San Diego, he's been calling me "San Diego." He'll just be like "Hey San Diego, how's it going? It kind of reminds me of this game on a radio program I once heard, where they were like "What if you were named after the place where you were born? But I have managed, so far, t...

Pretty Much Great: March 2010
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 21, 2010. The operative word is "Spring". I sometimes wish I had more interesting things to tell. This week was Spring Break, but I decided to work this week instead of actually taking a break, in order to prepare for upcoming unemploymentness. Which isn't a word. I went to my sister's house last weekend and spent some time with her and my brother-in-law, and my oh-so-adorable-and-brilliant nephew, as seen here:. This is some of what we do when Mom and Dad are gone). View my complete profile.

Pretty Much Great: May 2010
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 01, 2010. I reveled during the previews that I wasn't the only person in the world who liked movies/documentaries like this. Then the movie started. A small pair of feet wearing little kid pajamas scurried across a hard wood floor. Then little children were suddenly attacking Tina Fey and Steve Carell. What the? Instead I said "How far into the movie is it? Still, what kind of movie theater doesn't tell you which theater to go into? For example, right now my roommates are out in the front r...

Pretty Much Great: September 2010
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 04, 2010. Sometimes "Bekahs" go to South Korea. Though it doesn't happen often. But it did this time. Anyhow, about 3 weeks ago (literally, THREE weeks ago) I heard back from the program. I had gotten the job, and they would like me to come by September 1st. What the? That was two weeks away! Craziness, I know. But here I am. My contract is for a year, so it'll be over next August. To be honest, I'm not sure I'll stay the whole year (the penalty for breaking the contract i...Lindsay a...

Pretty Much Great: October 2010

Thursday, October 14, 2010. What the.How did I become an ENGLISH teacher? So, once upon a time while I was at BYU I had a decision to make. I had to decide between majoring in English or Social Work. Here's the breakdown of how the two competed with each other for my affection:. Year One: My first semester of school was spent taking classes I thought would be fun, like astronomy and archaeology. They were fun- but they were also harder than I thought they'd be. Science fascinates me! I decided while I wa...

Pretty Much Great: July 2012
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 21, 2012. Still Pretty Much Great.Well, most of the time ;]. So, for the last while I've been trying to decide what to write- especially because I haven't written for so long! So, let me catch you up. August, 2011: I moved to Tallahassee, Florida and started a Social Work PhD program at FSU. The drive across country with my sister and new sister-in-law was fun! I even got to stop by and visit Val and Dax in Texas. December: I visit my family for Christmas. Yea! January-March, 2012: I go ba...

Pretty Much Great: August 2010
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 23, 2010. So, here are a few of the things I've been working on while I've been in San Diego:. I helped Britte make these Bridal Shower cakes for our friend, Emilyssa. Mostly I helped make the little flowers on the cakes and the bodies (which I sculpted out of fondant). It was fun for my first cake decorating experience, but I realized I'm probably way too perfectionistic while I was making the flowers! Cutting tiles. It was actually kind of fun, I felt like I was back in ceramics class.

Pretty Much Great: July 2011

Monday, July 18, 2011. How Does Your Garden Grow. Britte and I worked hard on our family garden this year. We're excited, because everything is getting so big! Cantaloupe in the corner, and Pumpkin (the massive plant in the foreground). We have 5 of these adorable little babies growing! We transplanted this plumeria tree from my grandpa's house. We thought it might be dying, but now it's flowering a lot, and it smells so delicious! Sunflowers and African Daisies. And a random assortment of Tomato plants.

Pretty Much Great: December 2010
http://prettymuchgreat.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 10, 2010. I don't care what people say. I don't care what people say. The new Narnia movie is great. I have yet to draw up the energy to see the new Harry Potter. Frozen peas are good. Eating them frozen is like having a treat. No pain, no gain might be true. But yes pain, yes gain is definitely true. Weird looking ornaments you made with macaroni noodles when you were little will always look better than the fancy store-bought ones. The Sorcerer's Apprentice is also awesome. I'm back in ...
