i wish i could just blog effortlessly right now but...
it's not really working.
here comes another random post.

fun fact: sydnee runs every morning.
when i got home from virginia, i had a strange motivation to run. every day.
so i have.
today, i listened to the one and only mr. bieber on my run.
and i ran an entire extra mile.
so fitness tip from sydnee.
the biebs is the best person to listen to while running.

i've been stuck in a fashion rut.
i don't even know why.
but thankfully i was refreshed while shopping at forever 21.
and i'm back.

the sing-off finally started again.
vocal point has my vote.
mostly because they're clean cut mormon boys from BYU.
but i'm not going to lie, afro blue was pretty good.



my days are getting fewer and i'm getting more and more scared.
but happy at the same time.

what? all stars?

who else knew that america's next top model was doing an all star season??
i didn't until just last week.

i've seen every single episode and cycle of america's next top model.
if you asked which cycle one person was on, i could tell you.

i once did a post on my all time favorites, be aware i wrote it over a year ago.
i was still in the exclamation point and smiley face phase.

anyway.

it's on the cw website right now if you haven't watched it.
right here

my pick?

laura.
from the short cycle.
kick all those diva butts gurrrrrl.


when i found out brittany from cycle four was on the all stars i picked her first.

but apparently nobody remembers her.
i remember you brittany.
but i guess only a true top model fan would.
and you should have stayed.


who's your pick?

a little laugh.

i have three jobs.

one being a nanny to my adorable cousins.
when my uncle asked them if they were excited to have me,
one of them yelled at the top of her lungs
"i love sydnee!"
and i knew this was going to be better.

i've made a new goal.
i am going to watch every single movie on the AFI top 100 movie list.
well at least most of them.

so far i only have ten down.
but i will get there eventually.

i started with the graduate at number seventeen.

"It's like I was playing some kind of game, but the rules don't make any sense to me. They're being made up by all the wrong people. I mean no one makes them up. They seem to make themselves up."

not my favorite but hey, it's on the list.
now i have eleven down.
eighty-nine to go.

diet coke, cookie and the gammon's.

i haven't felt complete since i got home until i made a visit to the gammon's.

i tried to facebook stalk a picture of them but i was unsuccessful.

there's mama gammon who's name explains it all.

she's my second mama. she loves sweats and cake.

haley gammon.

whose laugh makes me laugh even harder and is amazing on the piano.

claire gammon.

who is joined at the hip to haley and has the most beautiful red hair you'll ever see

grace & kate gammon.

they're younger, they'll usually pipe in with funny one liners.

not to mention every single one of them has the cutest style.
they should be featured in lucky magazine as the most stylish ginger family.

i visit their house often and usually they have delicious baked goods to serve me along with a diet coke.

my blog is one of their most visited websites so i'm sure they're reading this right now.

love you guys.

i'll be over next week.

s'wonderful.

today, i was bored and thinking of what to do
but then i asked myself
w.w.t.b.f.c.d?
then it came to me in a flash.
i'm going to make maple-oatmeal scones.

idea from here
recipe found here

and watching a little bit of audrey.

reunited and it feels so good.

tights.

i'm glad you came back.

i missed wearing you.

to the best mom in the world.

 

happy birthday.

love you.

i drive sales.

i'm employed.

hey orem costco.

come snag a sample from me.

i also left my camera on the counter last night and found my brothers playing with the panoramic option

they're... different.

carless.

remember stuart?

he looked like this.
after i left, my mom and dad had to take him back to the dealer.
so since he's gone, i'm carless.
i sit at home, wanting to drive to the mall, but can't.
all i have is a bike.

i have new man.
although you wouldn't exactly call him new.

(not my picture by the way)
he's a volkswagen cabriolet.
he needs a little lovin and some tender care and he'll be all mine.
the problem is, he doesn't have a name.
please help me out,
he is a boy, he likes to stick close to his roots so make it start with a V or a C.
he's also german.

date night in the canyon.

they can start fires without matches

and make a mean tin foil dinner

i really missed being home.

I'm home!

at approximately eleven o'clock last night i was home.

my flight was delayed for two hours and i spent the time twiddling my thumbs and reading my glamour magazine in the chicago airport.

but the second i got off the plane i realized the faster i walk, the faster i get home.

i was one of the last ones off of the plane and one of the first ones to the baggage claim.

the second i turned the corner i saw my mom and dad.

i couldn't help it.

i ran to them with tears in my eyes.

i got the best hugs ever, a bouquet of flowers and a diet coke.

i can finally breathe.

i finally have internet and cell phone service.

and i'm finally home.

i heard this song the second day in virginia.
it really kept my head up
