About ValPal

Oh hey there!

I'm Valpal.

 I'm a Mormon, a student, a firecracker, a artist, and a blogger.

I'm obsessed with DIY crafts.

I attend BYU-Idaho and am majoring in Art education and
I love the gospel of Jesus Christ.

I loooove  popcorn and icees (coca cola flavored of course)

I have a guilty pleasure of "that's what she said jokes" and watching extreme couponers. I will be one someday. 

I'm an emotional roller coaster, and think rodents are the cutest things ever.

I've been told more times than I can counts that I look like this chica from the show "glee"

I can't sing to save my life though.

I have the greatest family. 

I have a bad habit of pulling out my eyelashes and chipping off my nail polish. I wish I had a bad habit of eating health food and running... but what can you do?

 I love cooking pretty and tasty things.

I talk in different accents, and don't really notice until someone mentions how weird I am.

Like every other blogger in the world, I wanna be like Sydney Poulten (The Daybook). She was in my Art History class while she was pregnant and I made it a goal to get a picture with her... I chickened out. haha

My blog is a combination of everything I'd like to think, crafts, tips, recipes, and humor. But mostly, it's just about my life. It's often far more revealing than it should be, but the writings are truthful and the feelings are real, and I'd like to believe that with every post I write, there's at least one person out there that needs to hear it. So be wary, I don't mince words.

My favorites:

Shows: The biggest loser, The bachelorette.

Music: The Civil Wars, Bon Iver, Wye oak: Civilian.

Foods: Mrs Rhodes cinnamon rolls (seriously, THE BEST), Pizza lean pockets, Jello, popcorn, and sushi.

Books: The hungar games. Nuff said.

Napping.

I'm in love with this boy:

When I'm sad, he makes sock puppets to cheer me up. I never have to ask for massages and he is and INCREDIBLE guitar player. He may love his "gooter" more than he loves me actually...

He's determined, hardworking, and incredibly thoughtful and patient.

He's the definition of Indie. 

Together we like going out to eat, watching The Walking Dead and Prison Break (and little does he know, I WILL hook him on the Bachelorette!), and listening to Bon Iver. He likes walks in the park, and I prefer snuggling. He's more like a really good (and hott) babysitter for my immature self, but he sure is a keeper.

To get to know me better, here are my favorite...

Songs: Landslide by Fleetwood mac or the Dixie Chicks version, Civilian by Wye Oak, Basically any Civil Wars, Iron and Wine or Bon Iver song.

Foods: Popcorn, Nacho Cheese Doritos, Pizza Lean Pockets, and just about any junk food. (Yea, fat kid status right there baby!)

Movies: Coraline (Claymation movies just capture me!), Pearl Harbor (because who can resist the looove and the action, and the looove...), and basically any Ben Affleck or Will Smith movie.

Books: The Hunger Games, The City of Ember ( I read it in like... eighth grade.), Heaven is Here.
