Singapore Airlines is the BEST

We know that you have many choses when you fly; we're glad that you've chosen to fly with us. --Which airline says that catch-phrase, do you think? The greatest airline in the world is Singapore Air. I will let the following pictures speak for themselves. Here are some of my family's own pictures: These chairs really DO recline into beds. It was the best $5000 I never spent. (We were bumped up to 1st class due to a minor airline error in our benefit.)

4 Classic Studio Ghibli Anime Films

Here are some of my favorite films by Studio Ghibli. Studio Ghibli, Inc. is a Japanese animation film studio that is currently working with Disney. These animated adventures are not only for young children, but for anyone with an imagination. These films can be enjoyed by everyone in the family. Kiki's Delivery Service (1989/1998) A young witch, on her mandatory year of independent life, finds fitting into a new community difficult while she supports herself by running an air courier service. Kirsten Dunst voiced Kiki in the 1998 English dub. The English dub was also Phil Hartman's last voice-acting performance (as Jiji) before his death. There is a tribute to Phil Hartman after the credits of the English dub, dedicating the film to his memory.

The ALPINE LOOP up Provo Canyon

After the Sunday afternoon session of conference, I decided to drive up the canyon. Before I go on, I must explain what a monumental step this was for me. You see, I was caught in a "Catch 22". I wouldn't go up without a date, but on the other hand, I wouldn't go up until I knew the exact directions and how long it would take. Therefore, I could never satisfy my curiosity despite the reassurances of friends who tried to explain it to me. With that said, Sunday, I asked a friend named DAK to double with me. We found some girls in the ward who were excited to go up as well. I threw caution to the wind and headed up with a 1/2 tank of …It was amazing. The aspens were fatter than I have ever seen. The snow seemed perfectly painted on the tips of the evergreens. The variety of the colors were astonishing. And the open mountain landscape on the back of Timp was simply majestic. Here are some pics. Sorry that they turned out so dark; the flash wasn't working right. After...

My Room

I went to Ross a few weeks ago and was struck again by the oriental Feng Shui Bug. As you can see below, I bought a bunch of stuff to decorate our room. The desk belongs to Brian; it isn't really oriental but it is a nice addition to the room. Maybe later I'll show you the REST of the room...

DU: A new fragrance by Geof Trumpy

---III---___.___---III---___.___---III---___.___---III---___.___--- I recently ran out of my man-perfume and am in the market for a new bottle. If I recall correctly, Noelle or Stefanie or I bought it for myself as a Christmas gift the year I got home from my mission. I'm impressed that it lasted this long. Maybe its lack of use has led in some small degree to my single status. I'm open to suggestions for new fragrances.
