So, since it's been a VERY long time since I've posted anything, and with a little nudging from Kendra, I have decided to talk about the experience I had today. I have been having a lot of pain in my bunion area. And it's not the normal pain that I had before my surgery. We're talking fire, aching, 1000 needles, stuff like that. Well, after a long road of trying to figure out what it was, my doctor told me to have a bone scan done.
Bone scans are when they inject radioactive tracer into your bloodstream. The tracer quickly flows into the soft tissue in your body. They take pictures with this special machine that's almost like an MRI machine. Then they tell you to come back three or four hours later, because by then, the tracer will have settled in to your bones. If there are any fractures or breaks, even ones that have healed, or some area of trouble, they will show up on the screen as "hot spots". You are then able to see where the pain is coming from.
Well, I had mine done today, so for the next 12 hours, I will be radioactive. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to leap quickly across the room or have objects move. However, I did have an incident in the bathtub. I was just sitting there reading, minding my own business, when a huge jar filled with glass shards (I promise, it's a decoration!) fell into the tub. I didn't touch anything, and it was pretty far from the edge. (Twilight Zone Theme Song Plays)
It was really interesting to see all these little dots moving around in my foot. We'll see what the doctor says!
Please, people, don't forget to comment! I love comments! Plus, I want to see who is actually looking at my blog. Thanks!

More Pictures
K...this picture is really bad but i just added it because it makes me laugh. This is Chance. He's the star of my famous picture that I did earlier. Chance looks like a sea horse (hahaha) in this picture. He also looks like he's saying, "Hi! I'm Chance. I'm really shy, but you can take my picture, anyway!"
Trying to recreate the picture...I don't know. What do you think?!

More Pictures...
Hey guys! I know it's been a while. Oops!! So this is my shout out to Benjamin Legrow and the Nikon D40!
Last week I was in a pickle. All of the pictures I took while I was home did not turn out. Some of it was my fault because I didn't load the film on the reel correctly. But the other roll was exposed a little bit because the cap came off. There were little triangles of light on each picture. This was on Tuesday...my portrait assignments were due Thursday. Needless to say I was kind of freaking out since it is a long process to develop and print film.
That's when I remembered my friend Ben Legrow. Somehow he won a Nikon D40, my favorite camera in the world! (Umm, yeah, I'm jealous!) I called him and begged to borrow his camera. Luckily, my begging skills worked.
Okay...I know I just said that I would post pictures, but it's not working, so I'll do it later.

Pictures
Here are some pictures I took on Tuesday.
My teacher said that this one was his favorite out of the whole class. He said it made his Top 200 list, which is saying something since he has been teaching for about 20 years and the average number of students in the class is around 65. Anyway... It's my favorite, too!
I really like this one, too. If I do say so myself! Comments are appreciated!

Another Sad Day for Derby Lovers...and Horse Lovers
Eight Belles was euthanized after finishing second in the 134 Kentucky Derby 2008. Even though I wasn't keeping up with horse racing, it's still sad for me! She was the first filly to run in the Derby for 9 years. She was really pretty!

FHE Fun
I've been meaning to post this for a while but I haven't had time. This was one of our first activities as an FHE group. We went to a local nursing home and just kind of played with them. We painted most of the women's fingernails (no toenails, please!) and played games and things.

It was really fun. I'm pretty sure I met a kindred spirit there. Here name was Elaine Poole.
She was awesome. She was really funny, too. We talked about people we knew in Menan, Idaho. When I took her to her room for the night, I said goodbye, and she just kept saying, "I'm sure we'll see each other someday soon!"
And here's my group:

Blogworthy Experience
So I finally have something to blog about! I was taking a bath, just minding my own business, reading a book, and all of a sudden this girl I don't know walks in on me. I just have to say something about that. Usually when the light is on, the door is closed, and water is running it means that there is someone in there. Use common sense, people!!!! Maybe I was wrong...I don't know... OF COURSE I'M RIGHT!!! Hahahahaha! Just kidding. I just thought it was funny. It made me laugh. The girl was some random girl that my roommate invited for dinner.
Oh well...I guess you experience everything at college!

Pictures On My Day Off!!!
This is what happens when your teacher cancels class because he's in San Fransisco.
It was a beautiful day outside today, so I wanted to be outside somewhere. But by the time I got out there it was about 10 degrees outside.
My friend has horses up here, and (you know me and horses and photography) I decided to take pictures of them. Don't worry, I asked first. However, I did feel like I was trespassing. Anyway...
Her horses are Sally and Jules. I swear these awesome horses knew I was taking pictures of them. They totally turned there heads and did cute poses. It was so funny! Jules is in most of them. It's hard to tell a difference between the two.
This is Jules turning her head to show her beautiful profile.
This is Sally looking really mad...but you can tell she has kind eyes! Hehehehe...
Best friends! So cute!
And my all-time favorite picture....

Awesome Website for LDS Temples
Hey guys...just wanted to let you know that there is an awesome website that tells facts about the temples. Before you get scared about the content, it was made by the church...I think. Here is a link to the Rexburg Temple, who's dedication I attended last Sunday. They have some awesome pictures! It's really cool! Don't forget to comment!
