Quirky Things, Episode 1

I washed my hands in the testing center bathroom the other day. And when I went to grab a towel, I found this:




I just started laughing. :D
Seriously, I think they should put googly eyes on ALL the paper towel dispensers. Especially the testing center ones. just saying.

You've Got to Admire Their Spirit


My little brother's friends came to the door yesterday. They were selling artwork, so I bought this for a dollar:


In my opinion, a dollar well spent. =)

Obsessed




I'm sorry, but these girls are just so cute! And way better and way more humble than the ones you see on America's Got Talent.

Basically, I love these two! And I'm obsessed with this song. Just thought you'd like to know. :)

I Love My Sister :)

So there's this boy band called One Direction.

Maybe you've heard of them?

Supposedly they're these five hot guys from Britain (and Ireland! Don't you think I forgot!), and they sing a few good songs like What Makes You Beautiful and One Thing and I Should've Kissed You. They're all the craze these days, at least in the world of my little sister and all her friends and probably every other person she's ever met in her entire life.

They do things like sit at home on Friday night and watch One Direction's live tour DVD instead of going to Oremfest. And buy red skinny jeans, blue striped shirts and suspenders to wear at the 1D concert in July 2013 (!). Their typical afternoons are spent watching all the One Direction podcasts, updating their collective 1D facebook fan pages, and writing 17-page (and growing) fan fiction. 

Yes, you could say they're in love. 
And though it strikes me as silly, and sometimes it drives me crazy... I can't be too cynical. Because in church last Sunday, my sister gave me this:


I just had to smile. :)

Well, guys, we made it. Grades are final and graduation is upon us! And I've been meaning to do this for a while, and I just thought here's as good a place as any to share it. :) I realize not many people will get the jokes or remember those times, but for me, and for Cambry, and for many of our friends, these three years at Orem High really were filled with some great times worth remembering.

Happy Cry

Girls cry.
It's a fact of life. 

We cry when we're hurt, when we're lonely, when we're stressed, or when we're just having one of those days.  There are tired cries, sick cries, hormone cries, angry cries, sad cries, and scared cries... It seems that our tear ducts are just naturally prone to flooding at the most inconvenient of times, and to top it off, girls are also sensitive to those same triggers that tear down the flood gates that keep it in. But sometimes crying isn't a bad thing. Sometimes, it's a really, really good thing. I call them happy cries. :)

And sometimes, I happy cry when someone says something so kind to me, and so thoughtful, and so sincere, that I just can't help but smile and "aw" and cry. 

So to the someone who said all those wonderful things... thanks for making me happy cry. :)

Good Days

I love it when I have a good day. :) Though every day has its ups and downs, as long as my day turns out as an "up," I consider it a success. Today was an epic win for two reasons:

1. My audition piece is really coming together and it makes me so excited! I'm auditioning for the BYU School of Music and also the Utah Wind Symphony Concerto Competition tomorrow on Fantasia, and I love the piece, love the sound, and I really look forward to some great things happening! :) I can't wait! :D

2. Driving home from my rehearsal with my accompanist (already in a good mood), I saw a red Volkswagen Beetle wearing these:



They are simply the most adorable things ever! :) Who would've thought they even HAD car eyelashes?! Love it. Love it love it. LOVE IT. :D So when I get a car, I want it to be a red slug bug, and I want it to wear car eyelashes. :) Just like these.



Don't they just make you smile, too?

The Ultimate Pickle

For those of you familiar with the game "In a Pickle"...

There is an atom in a speck of dust.
That speck of dust is in a tear in a river in the meadow.
The meadow is in smoke, which is in the fire that appears in the reflection in the eye of the needle in a haystack.
The haystack is in a barn in a picture in the frame that sits in the closet of a bedroom in a house.
That house is in a tornado in the sky.
The sky appears in the telescope in the attic, which is mentioned in the note in the envelope in the jacket lying in the mud.
There is mud in the trunk in the alley in Hollywood.
Hollywood is in the dream of the movie star, who sits in a limousine in a parking lot at the theater.
That theater is in a magazine which was thrown into a vase sitting in the doorway in secret.
There is a secret in the recipe for chocolate.
The chocolate is in the stomach of a giraffe in a telephone booth in a rainstorm in America.
America in the past is in the film in a nutshell.
The nutshell is in a box in a warehouse built in a crater in the circle of danger.
There is danger in life.
Life is in the soul of the president who resides in the White House, which is in power.
There is power in hope, and hope is in money that lays with the gold in a mine in a canyon.
The canyon is somewhere in the world, and the world consumes the thoughts of a tourist.
That tourist is in a jam.
Jam is in the sandwich in the lunch of an elephant in a refrigerator in the jungle.
That's in a joke told by the boy in love.
There is love in the gift of a partridge in a pear tree.
That's in a song in the book lying in a library in the mansion that's in the memory in the girl.
The girl is in a bonnet, which is in a corner of a castle in the forest in the story that is told in the newspaper.
The newspaper was thrown in a dumpster in New York.
That city is in the heart of a theif in a pickle.
There is a pickle at the supermarket in the town square in Paris, which is a city in France.
France is in trouble.
There is trouble in the water, and that is in the big mystery residing in the universe.

And all the universe is in the space of the atom in a speck of dust. . . .

I'm Famous!

So I'm in photo right now, and we just took our state test.

Don't ask me why digital photography has one of those... it just does... it's a little pointless if you ask me. ;)

Anyway, I finished really early (with a 93% yeah!) so I decided to google myself. This works really well for me because I'm practically famous, and I have to go to the 11th page before I can't find at least one link that's actually me! :D

I feel a little bit like a celebrity. :)
(Actually, the only reason I'm so famous when googled is because I'm probably the only Brittney Theurer in the world. Well, there's one other girl living in South Dakota, but she hasn't done much... Whatever.)

Also, check out my cute photography ads! Not that I'm planning on ever being a photographer, but if I were... cute posters, right?? :D

Color Ad


Black and White

So... yeah! I'm in a good mood right now. :)
Today is such a good day.

My Smile Song of the Day

This is just one of those feel-good songs. It makes me burst into a smile every time, even laugh or get up and twirl around. :)



Amazing. :)
