And...I bought a bunch of clothes. Probably too many. Outlets are dangerous. No wonder my parents never let us stop. But I have to improve my wardrobe if I'm gonna be on TV right? :) Now for the infamous list.
1. Hair cut. I got one. On Martin Luther King Jr. Day. I went to Paul Mitchell Hair School which is literally down the street from my house. I can get there faster than I can get to campus. Anyway, it was great. Might have taken awhile. But it's all good. Note to self: Do not go to get your hair cut with your hair straightened if your hair is not naturally straight. Yes, my hair is not outrageously curly (especially in Utah). But still. It is awfully hard to explain to a hair dresser what your hair normally looks like. Anyway, I chopped off a lot of hair. My philosophy on haircuts: It's a waste of money to get your hair trimmed. So go big or go home. :) Thus, I bid farewell to my long hair. It was super cute after it was styled and when my roommates are kind enough to straighten it. (Don't worry, I am in fact learning to straighten my own hair. I had to do it myself for my interview for the broadcast program and I got in so it couldn't have been that bad right?) It's OK when it's curly. It's excellent when Kellie does my hair. Kellie has truly mastered the art of curly hair as proven by the fact that her hair always looks AMAZING. Ponytails are also great. Really great. Here are the latest stylings Bridget's hair.
Day after. Still styled by hair stylist. |
The ponytail. Not that you can tell. :) |
After Kellie did my hair. Excellent. At least it makes me happy. :) |
P.S. Pretty sure the short hair is gonna become permanent with the broadcast program. But more info on that to come.
2. Rice Cookers. They are so great. In fact it was one of the first appliances I bought for myself this year at school. Rice at the push of a button. What could be better? Some people grew up cooking rice using different methods. Not the Ostlers. In fact, I grew up not realizing there was more than just white sticky rice. Yes, I ate Mexican rice. (I also grew up believing rice and beans at Baja Fresh was a whole meal.) But somehow I never made the connection. Anyway, I will forever be a proponent of rice cookers and eating rice in general (as shown by the 20 pound bag of rice I also purchased). My rice cooker even has a steamer on top. Pretty fancy. Ha. :)
3. Narcoleptic basketball players. So first you must watch this video to see what I'm envisioning. So at the TCU @ BYU game, Brandon Davies went to dunk the ball in dramatic windmill fashion and missed. It was quite embarrassing. But kinda hilarious. Anyway, my friends and I decided that obviously Brandon Davies fell asleep right before he was going to dunk the ball. The cause: narcolepsy. And then we couldn't help imagining all of the basketball players being narcoleptic. How funny would that be? Sad. But funny. Just like the dog in the video. Trying to stay awake but eventually just collapsing and falling asleep right in the middle of the game.
And now let's talk about the most epic game in BYU basketball history. 6 SDSU @ 9 BYU. Wasted my life away standing in line just to get a seat. But it was all worth it.
4. A favorite sign of mine: "1 Jimmer 1:1 Let there be rain"
5. Another favorite sign: "You should have started guarding Jimmer when he stepped off the bus."
6. Yet another: "Hands up...so what?"
7. And another (sorry, they are just so entertaining): "We got Jimmer, your chances just got slimmer. We got Jackson, move back, son." This one really isn't that funny. I just found it the "Jackson" rhyming with "back, son" part quite entertaining.
8. One of my favorite things to do at basketball games (aside from watching the actual game) is to watch President Cecil Samuelson's reactions to everything. And let me tell you. When President Samuelson stands up. It's a big deal. Really any reaction at all is a big deal. And guess what. President Samuelson stood up during the SDSU game. Translation: It was a big deal.
9. Cougarettes. They are SO good. They have won way too many national championships. And they are proof that dancing doesn't have to be dirty to be good. My high school didn't understand that concept. And for being white, their hip hop routines are really good. :)
10. Vocal Point. BYU's guys a cappella group. SO. GOOD. In fact it's kinda ridiculous how good they are.
Alright ten is more than enough. To be continued... :)
