2009-10-25T23:06:00.002-06:00

I'm thinking about making this blog into a recipe blog. I've been feeling very culinary-ily inclined lately. And I am bad enough at just updating Chris and I's blog.... just sayin.

I must apologize. This past month has been, in a word, CRAZY! I promise I'm coming back! Everytime I see my blog I get sad that it isn't updated more and I recently ventured to the bottom of the page yesterday and was shocked to see that I actually have people following me. Now I HAVE to get back on track!

I really am coming back though, promise promise promise.

P.S. who said it was ok for it to snow here AGAIN? at the end of March? C'mon spring... spring already!

WOW. It has been a crazy last couple of days around here!
On Wednesday, Chris got a call from the Houston Astros who offered him an internship this summer! It is so amazing that he was selected (early even) out of all the people who applied. Guess I'll be spending some quality time in the good old TX this summer...We are very excited and I am so so proud of him! Congrats Chris!

In other news, one of my best friends in the whole world got engaged last night. I'm SO happy for her and excited for her and her fiancee. I love you Rach! Congrats!

The BYU AdLab is mentioned in the New York Times today for our work on the Tap Project! I'm so excited!
Read the story here.
The guys in the lab have also produced some truly amazing commercials in the last week or so which can be seen here.
Overall, everyone in the lab has put in a ton of effort over the past couple of months on this project, from fundraisers and restaurant recruiting to ad designing and promotion creating. Everyone get geared up for world water week!
To learn all about UtahTap (the part of the project that the AdLab is heading up) go here and watch the video!

its comcastic?

funny thing of the day: agua

2009-03-03T01:07:00.004-07:00

so in the ad lab today i noticed a random small plastic water bottle kicking around that just happened to surface everytime i was around...

well i finally read what it said on the label:

Do not hit people with full bottles. Empty bottles are ok. If you feel guilty for using plastic bottles, pour the water on a tree

kind of awesome, kind of funny, kind of made my day.

dayyyyyy one

hello all (probably two of you...). i decided it was time for a blog and took the extra little push from my lovely roommate stacie to start one. plus i've convinced myself that this can serve as a sort of journal for me in a creative and fun way since i usually lack in that area of self exploration and documentation. and i seriously LOVE reading blogs. its a recent obsession.
anyway, get ready to see some sweet creative work, enjoy little things i find awesome and hopefully laugh a little bit.
i'm excited!!
