Quote!

So as I read a friend's blog, I found this quote that I absolutely love and feel I need to apply in my life right now:

"If you believe in peace, act peacefully;
if you believe in love, act lovingly;
if you believe every which way, that's perfectly valid
- but don't go trying to sell your beliefs to the system.
You end up contradicting what you profess to believe in and you set a bum example. If you want to change the world,
change yourself."

More Catch-Up

So...yeah, I'm still behind. Clearly school has started.

Back near the first few weekends of school, I went on a few hikes with some wonderful friends of mine! Hooray for friends and the beautiful nature God gives us, right?!

This here picture ^ is from Stewart Falls up Provo Canyon. Mmmhhmmm :)

My lovely friend Jill, posing in all her fabulous beauty!

The falls - so much more water than I expected

Le tres amigas! Jill, my roommate Kira, and I :) We made it - honestly, it's not a bad hike at all
This was another hike (I believe the week after the previous one) up Y Mountain - the whole mountain, to the summit, not just to the Y. B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L.

Pretty fall colors. We went on a perfect day with great weather and great scenery.

At the summit! Yeah baby!

Back side of Y Mountain, who knew right?

Lizzie and her slendid lines!

Tradition! :) Yay fall leaves!
It's a climbing tree!

My personal favorite picture! So pretty!
