Confessions
So I have to admit, I think of certain foods with accents. For example, today I put out some miny danish for my roommates. It is the week before finals which is a total nightmare. We do nothing but write papers and work on assignments that we have been putting off for two weeks straight and then we have to clean and move out of our apartment. I can't tell you how much is sucks.
So to lessen the stress I put danish out for people to snack on. I know they are really unhealthy, but you try writing 16 papers with low blood sugar. Then you can lecture me.
Anyway, it occured to me that I was writing the note for people to eat these with a French accent. "Who arrrre you to resist me!?" and "Geeeve in my preetyz! Hoh, Hoh, Hoh!". I'm sure I'm not the only person who thinks of certain foods having accents, I'm probably just the only person who will admit it. Ariba!

Wedding Photographers? What a freakin' mess!
So I have been attempting to find a wedding photographer in Utah. That isn't the hard part, the hard part is finding one that is good!
This is my wedding okay! I know some people will but I will not spend $2000 plus on a photographer that:
A) Makes me do the same cheesy, kitsch, lame poses or poses that are better left to high school prom pictures.
B) Thinks that innovative photography is the bride and groom on swings, in a park, by old tractors, by old everything.
C) Who will try to pose a bride and groom with assault weapons. How is that cool and romantic?! You are NOT James Bond! You are a dorky couple from Utah!!!!!
Finding a good wedding photographer has become a HUGE pain. Everyone is the same. Sure their pictures may differ in quality, but pose wise, I have seen the same pictures in everyone's home and everyone's scrapbooks.
Give me a break people! I for one know that any picture where my family is cheering while my fiance and I kiss is not going to happen. Heaven help the photographer that tries to pull that one! Sorry this is not a deodorant or gum commercial, no one is cheering like that.
P.S. Upside down, weird angles distorting the bride and groom is not innovative. If the bride and groom look like their in some weird acid trip, you are a bad photographer.

Slum lords, you will get what is coming to you!
Alrighty,
so I have just discovered the joy of planning a wedding, nada! Suddenly it has crept up on me that I have a little over 3 months to plan the wedding, 3 weeks to finish 16 papers for school, find a place to live, and so forth.
Hooray! So far my wedding theme is:" I don't care"
My colors are: "I don't care, just no crappy pastels"
My photographer is: "uh....."
At least I now have a date set and I already have my dress. I bought a prom dress on clearance and it has everything I want namely: 1.It was $100 2. No poof whatsoever 3. I can put it on by myself.
So really, I just want a chill party not really a reception. I hate how much work and money goes into wedding that end in a year and a half. So the things that are final are:
1. I will be serving snow cones, so get over it
2. I will have a candy bar
3. We will probably have popcorn
4. I don't care about a cake, I'd rather have a tier of cupcakes or even brownies.
In the meantime, I would just like to put a curse out on all of you slum lords who take advantage of poor people. Ptewy! You will reap what you sew! Who in their right mind puts a toilet in a kitchen!?
