D'habitude, il fait plus beau. C'est magnifique.

Yeah... that's where I used to live. I know, it's gorgeous.

I haven't been blogging it up that much just because I write in my journal every day, then there's 2T2C (http://www.twoteenstwocontinents.blogspot.com/) and flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/lauren-dautel). Too much to update, silly technology.

Anyhoozle, I can't wait for TREK. I got so excited today for it, and it's all the way in March. But dude, it is going to be the most intense experience of my life. People that have told me about it say that it was the hardest thing they've ever done but it was the best experience they've ever had. And that says a lot right there. But I think it'll be absolutely positively amazing.

Gosh you guys, I want to move to Singapore so badly! Or China. Or both. That works too.

Skip to the ending.

I love this dress. Obviously it is more of a prom dress as opposed to homecoming but WOAH. Laaaaav it!

Okay. I hate to be a debbie downer but DUDE I gotta vent. Homecoming is absolutely positively stupid. I cannot stand it right now. I am on date fail #4 and I feel like the most pathetic person on the whole, entire planet. I mean it's not like it's my fault that they can't make it but it just makes me sad because all of the ones I've had dates with so far would be fun, it just never worked out. I've just been stressing so much over getting my friends dates and it's just kind of hard, you know?

Anyhooter, I love skyping with people. In the past like 15 hours I've skyped with 4 of my really really close friends and it made me feel like I was with them, just like old times. It was super fun, and I'm so grateful for technology because it makes everything so much more convenient. Wahey!

OH SNAP GUYS. I want to learn to play the guitar so dang bad. Fo' real. I need to stop saying 'fo' real'. Seriously though, its become a legit part of my vocabulary and that freaks me out. HEY- I went shopping for homecoming dresses yesterday. I think I found the one. I'll put a picture up if I actually get it! :)

forever is a long time, but i wouldn't mind spending it by your side.

I love He is we.

I love love love love love love love love love He is we.

"I have a gum."

I honestly have my knickers in a twist. I am so confused. I have no idea of what I want to be, but then I have every idea of what I want to be. I don't know... there are just too many choices. I'm just confused with life in general.

I want to go into one of these fields:

-photojournalism

-journalism

-photography

-international relations

-international business.

But I have absolutely positively no idea which one. I need some help here.

The photoshoot with my friends was AMAZING. It ended up being just Siri, Sarah and I which was probably better because it would have never ended if everyone else came, haha. Wowza I was tired after.

Nikon>Canon.

Photoshoot tomorrow with Siri, Sarah, Brynn, and Julia. Am I excited? Heck yes.

Go Nikon.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Perfection: perception of what we find to be incredible, of the all knowing, standing out amongst all. Its who, or what we find to be amazing. And yeah you are.

I AM STRESSING SO HARD OVER HOMECOMING RIGHT NOW.

There is sunshine in my soul today.

In da kitchen making a sammich.

I babysat these 4 kids that were probably the most hilarious kids I've ever, ever babysat before in my life. Here are just a few funny things I heard:

"There was a cricket but I didn't wanna pick it up and eat it so I didn't."

"Lauren...Sometimes my underwear gets stuck in my butt."

Everytime one of the boys wanted to say something, he'd say "And guess what?"

"Lauren I wanna talk to you now."

"If you don't exercise you'll get fat and die."

I was honestly laughing my head of the whole time. It was just great.
