Day 20: Nicknames

1&2. Bon, Bonbon-pretty much everyone calls me one of these. My niece calls me Bonbon when she's happy with me and Bon when she's exasperated with me. So cute!
3. Bonster-my halo name (which my brother made up), what two of my brothers call me, and my blog name.
4. Bombie- some guys in my seminary class had this conversation: "Bonnie is bomb, Bonnie's the bomb, Bonnie bomb.... Bombie!!!" And they were really excited at their cleverness and called me that for the rest of the semester"
5. Bonniebommiebon: my friend heard the above and started calling me this every time she saw me
6. Waffles- When I moved here the girls I started hanging out with had food names as nicknames, so this was mine
7. Cherry- I happened to be wearing a Cherry shirt at the time...
8. Big Mac- I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you
9. Betty- this guy in my government class told me I look more like a Betty, so that is what he calls me
10. Bonnielass- Becca and Jecca :)
I think that's about it, that's all I can think of anyways :) Funny story one time I found a horse online whose name was Bonnie, and it's nicknames were Bonbon and Bonster. Then when I was trying to find that horse just now to show you I found this dog, whose name is Bonnie and whose nicknames are Bonbon and Bonster. Awesome. :D http://www.dogster.com/dogs/28123
Here's the horse too, it's the 9th one down: http://paradigmfarms.blogspot.com/2010/05/nicknames.html
Makes me laugh :)

Day 18 and 19


So I'm going to combine Day 18 (Favorite place to eat) and Day 19 (Something you miss) because they are both the same thing:
Plum Loco!!! (Formerly known as Mi Casa)
Best. Mexican food. Ever. And it's in Idaho Falls, so I haven't had it in about 6 years, but if I had the money, I would fly up there for a chimi. No lie, some of my family members have done it :) My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Also their salsa is to die for :)
Sooooooooo good :)

Day 16: Dream house

For me, it's all about location:

That's right, Bag End baby!!!! (P.S. if you don't know what I'm talking about, go read Lord of the Rings, and then watch the movie :)
But just think, it's perfect, it comes with beautiful landscaping:


amazing housey-innards:


And HOBBITS!!! Who are pretty much the coolest. EVER. (Sam's my fav, closely followed by Pippin, fyi, but they all rock :)

And who doesn't love round green doors right?

Overall it's pretty much amazing. However, it does have one very small setback:



It's a little too small. You really only fit if you are about four feet high.
Also, it is in a slightly not real location...:(
Sighhhhh, if only I were four feet high and fictional.
Oh well, a girl can dream right? :)
P.S. Check it out, they made Bag End into a doll-house. AWESOME.

Day 15: Bible verse



2 Timothy 4: 6-7
"For I a now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith."

I have always absolutely loved this verse. Every time I read it it inspires me, and makes me want to try harder to keep the commandments and follow the Savior, so that one day when this life is over, I can know that I've fought as hard as I can to keep the faith.

P.S. The picture above is of Paul writing a letter to Timothy from prison. The picture below is of the Stripling Warriors in the Book of Mormon, which kind of relates, because they fought hard (literally) and kept their faith :)

Makeover Time!


So this one time, my lovely nieces (Strawberry, Apple, and Mango) came over to visit. And we were bored. So then Apple said, lets have a makeover party! I guess it's cause I'm just that good at makeovers!! haha....yeah. Anyways, despite my lack of photography skills, hair-doing-make-up doing-fingernail-painting skills, my models still manage to look beautiful :) So here they are:

Here's Strawberry after her eyes and nails: (She liked my green monster rug :)

Here's Apple after hers:













And Mango...was really wiggly :)

And then they all saw my lipstick :) Hehehe




And then came the hair...
















































So basically it was super cute, and then they went through and picked out the pictures they wanted me to put on my blog :)

Day 14: A picture of you last year - how have you changed?


So this picture was taken last year when my family went to the museum. How have I changed since then? Well for one thing, I'm not about to be eaten by a dinosaur skeleton anymore :) Also, I am a sophomore in college now (almost a junior!), I have been volunteering at a hospital for about a year, I started going to a student ward, I fell in love with Thai food, I read Jane Eyre (again :), and I met a few new peeps, and I got called to be a ward missionary, and in one month I will put in my official application for the nursing program!! Other than that, I'm pretty much the same as ever, I go to school, I stay with my familia, aaaaaaand I have a dog, who is a little insane :) That's about it :)
