August 19, 2011
I spend a lot of time sitting on my futon looking out this window. And by a lot I mean almost all. Some of my best pondering has been to this view.

Day #94: Sushi
August 18, 2011
I went out to sushi with a bunch of people today. Yay socializing.

Day #93: Kitty!
August 17, 2011
I stayed the night at my friend Laney's house. She has the most adorable kitty ever! The night consisted of a billion movies, blueberry crisp, and battling Asians on Mario Kart Wii on WiFi.

Day #92: Free Day
August 16, 2011
So, it was free day at one of the local art museums that has a family interactive exhibit. My sister jumped at the chance to go so I went with her and her little family. I love museums:) Quiet ones preferably..

Day #91: Book of Mormon
August 15, 2011
So, I decided to try to read the Book of Mormon in a month, but I was already a little behind so it came to 21 pages a day. I kept along really well for a while. Then I slowly got more and more behind until it became evident that I wouldn't be able to do it at this time. It was kind of just a really bad time to try...

Day #90: Vivid Dreams
August 14, 2011
I switched to Wellbutrin. One of the side effects is vivid dreams. Let me just clear this up: most fun side effect ever!

Day #89: The Cheesecake Factory
August 13, 2011
Picked up my brother at the airport in Seattle. Then we stopped by the Cheesecake Factory to eat. I got the red velvet cake cheesecake. It was possibly the most superb thing of my life. It took me like five days to finish.

Day #88: Photo Editing
August 12, 2011
Hey! I'm actually posting a picture for the day that I'm posting..If that makes any sense..Anyways. I forgot how much I love photo editing. And with this blog I have a lot of photos to go through and edit. And usually a lot at once that I want to get through as quickly as possible. So I have just been clicking the automatic fix options on the version of Photoshop that I have. But all the pictures that I posted today I actually took more time on to manually make them prettier. With which I use a combination of Picnik and Photoshop. Whoo!

Day #87: Errands With Andrea
August 11, 2011
I ran a bunch of errands with my sister today. One of which included going to a natural food market. And by the goat cheeses they have a few little goats. I thought it was adorable. As well as highly entertaining while browsing cheeses.

Day #86: The Lake
August 10, 2011
Every year before school starts our ward has a barbeque by a nearby lake, and people go tubing and out on the boats and such. It seems like it's always cloudy every year when we do this activity. I don't ever really do much. But my mom makes me go to activities. Even though I don't have anything to do or anyone to be with. I took some neat pictures, though, and some with my Holga which I'm just loaded with black and white film for the first time! So I'm excited to get those prints back when I finish the roll.

Day #85: Date With Sister Shigley
August 9, 2011
So since my young women's leader is moving on Saturday we went on a last date. It was sad and lasted pretty much all day and into the night...I'm going to miss her a lot.

Day #84: Sketchy Stuff
August 8, 2011
I've been sketching like crazy since being home. It's a little ridiculous how much time I actually spend doing it. Especially on this day I made six sketches. I haven't finished all of them, though. I go a little out of order with that sort of thing. But I figure, it's my sketch book, and artist do weird things, so why shouldn't I jump around like I want to? Sounds good.

Day #83: Scripture of the Day
August 7, 2011
This one jumped out at me this day (Alma 32:23). That when speaking from the Spirit, even little children can say really profound things. Also, one of my young women's leaders' last Sunday. She's one of my three friends that I actually have here. I'm so glad I'm doing online school this next year.

Day #82: Love Like A Sunset
August 6, 2011
I went to a bonfire with a bunch of people who I barely know and don't really like. Because I don't have real friends. But the sunset was absolutely lovely.

Day #81: Dear Emma (You're So Great)
August 5, 2011
So pretty much since I've been home all I've done is miss camp, miss my camp friends, and miss Emma in particular. So I wrote her this song with all of our inside jokes. And posted it on her Facebook wall. Which was actually terribly more complicated that it should have been and extremely frustrating. Then after I finally got it all done the audio and video get off in the middle. Arg. Definitely worth it, though.
Don't expect to understand anything I talk about in this, by the way.

Day #80: So You Think You Can Dance and Goldfish
August 4, 2011
I have a lot of So You Think You Can Dance to catch up on..So I attempted to make a dent in my list of episodes. And eat goldfish while watching them. Pretty sure that goldfish will always taste like Emma now.
-Kaylyn
Day #79: The Truman Show
August 3, 2011
I quoted or referenced this movie so much at theater camp, and I don't even remember why..So when I came home and it was our current Netflix I was really excited. It's a splendid movie, and I definitely needed the rewatching of it.

Day #78: For Emma
August 2, 2011
Walking around the local shops there are names of donators and whatever else on the bricks on the ground. I found my best roommate:)

Day #77: Reunited With My Beloved Pudge
August 1, 2011
Oh, how I missed my little Pudge! He was so excited to see me when I got back in the wee hours of this morning!
-Kaylyn
Day #76: Seventeen Hours Home
July 31, 2011
How do I keep surviving for 17 hours at a time in a car? I have no idea.
-Kaylyn
Day #75: Zoo
July 30, 2011
Technically this was the last day of camp. But no one sees each other. Pretty much you wake up then just leave and if you happen to see friends in the lobby of your hall or outside you hug them fiercely then proceed to leave. I was already planning on going to the zoo in Salt Lake with my family on this day because I love that zoo more than the one in Seattle. But seeing as how much Emma and I were going to miss each other she came along with us because she conveniently lives in Utah. So the roommate shenanigans continued for just another day:')
I love elephants the most. And Emma the most. So this picture is extremely appropriate.

Day #74: Tonight's the Night
July 29, 2011
Show day! We did well enough on our run through that after lunch we had free time which my friends Cameron and Logan and I used to go to the art museum right by the HFAC. Then we had two shows. This picture is of Emma and I backstage before the first show, I believe. Then we all partied at the Cannon Center. Then Abbey slept over at Emma and my room, but fell asleep long before we did. We ended up staying up until 5:30. GOOD TIMES.
-Kaylyn
Day #73: Lars the Dino Goose
July 28, 2011
This is Lars, the dino goose. My friend Garrett made him, and proceeded to continue making him until camp ended with entirely tape. Garrett also takes the most awkward pictures. Ever.
Theater kids are the best.
-Kaylyn
Day #72: Writing in Margins
July 27, 2011
We had extra time for lunch on this day, so we went to Cougar Eat, then the BYU bookstore, then to the museum store. I bought this book called Happiness by Mary Ellen Edmunds (who I love) and started reading it backstage that day. I like to write in the margins of my books and take notes. Because that's what cool people do.
-Kaylyn
Day #71: Eight Bucks Worth of Goldfish
July 26, 2011
Emma and I bought this huge box of goldfish at the Creamery for 8 bucks together. We went between wondering if we could finish it in four days to worrying if it would last four days a few times. It became a lovely inside joke and definite future tradition.
-Kaylyn
Day #70: Captain Crunch
July 25, 2011
It soon became evident that waking up for breakfast and walking to the Cannon Center for it in the morning was completely out of the question. So I began joining waking up later with my roomate, Emma, and other friend, Abbey, and eating cereal or other breakfast foods bought prior to that morning on the walk over to the HFAC.
-Kaylyn
Day #69: Ducks
July 24, 2011
Sunday was pretty much the only day we had any free time at all. We got to sleep in, then we went to a student ward for sacrament meeting. Then we had free time until a fireside after dinner with Dallyn Bayles, which might I add I was freaking out about. So a bunch of us went out to play in this waterfall by our dorms and take pictures. Then after dinner a group of us sneaked bread out of the Cannon Center and went to feed the ducks:)
-Kaylyn
Day #67: Monologue
July 22, 2011
So we had to find, cut, and prepare our own monologues to prepare for a monologue show on Monday. It was a tad bit hard. But still kind of fun now looking back.
-Kaylyn
Day #66: Maddie!
July 21, 2011
My first friend that I made at theater camp!! Going to see The Hit! NO, TOPAZ, NO!!
-Kaylyn
Day #65: Chalk
July 20, 2011
So my friend, Cameron, brought sidewalk chalk. Naturally, I was crazy excited to play with it which we did after lunch at the Cannon Center. Little did we know that it is considered vandalism and although they were pretty nice about it made us clean it up. It was a sad experience, but a wonderful story.
-Kaylyn
Day #63: Theater Camp!
July 18, 2011
First day of Crazy For You theater camp at BYU!! Pretty much we just auditioned all day, which was stressful. I hate auditioning. My roomate, Emma, said she loves it, though, because it's a like getting to do a personal performance. I think I should develop that mindset..sounds a lot more fun than hating it.
-Kaylyn
Day #62: Elf
July 17, 2011
Yes, I brought Elf with me to Utah and to theater camp on the off chance that there would be an opportunity to watch it. I wanted to watch it on Sunday, but we played Wii games altogether instead. Still fun.
-Kaylyn
Day #61: Dinosaurs!
July 16, 2011
So I was crazy excited about the last Harry Potter movie coming out. But I couldn't go to the midnight show because we left for Utah the next day. So when the idea to see it the next day in Utah with my brother came into my head I knew it was a brilliant one. And see Harry Potter we did. Then we walked around and found a neat little garden and walked into the lobby of a dinosaur museum and looked at the ones that we could see for free. Overall, a super effective day.
-Kaylyn
Day #60: My Castle
July 15, 2011
Making our usual 17ish hour drive to Utah. Ugh. We used to make this trip every summer. There's this cement factory that we pass by that I since I was little thought was a castle. We now call it my castle. And my dad had the song Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds on one of the tapes he'd listen to in the car so the two became my thing and are tied together in my childhood forever. My parents also call my Lucy which is part of the reason why Lucy in the Sky is my song. Here's the evolution of my name in my family: Kaylyn, Lyn, Lynnie, Lynnie Lou, Lucy Lou, and finally Lucy.

Day #59: Packing Again
July 14, 2011
For each trip I went on in July my suitcase got progressively bigger..Leaving for Utah in the morning!
