somebody has the case of the mondays....

BUT not me! oh man it was a pretty good monday. pretty much only things that would make me excited but thats fine. classes boring. huge 3 hour break in between classes, productive but boring until i was on my way to my music class. there was a sidewalk tent sale of things from the bookstore. i was just strolling the outside when something under the tent caught my eye. a little globe. i have been wanting a globe, just for fun so i went and checked it out. picked it up and it doubled as a pencil sharpener!! ya you are probably thing, noone even uses pencil sharpeners anymore, un contraire. i am in an art class were we have to use old school drawing pencils and i just so happen to need to sharpen.

i was super excited just for this globe pencil sharpener until my eye caught a teal beauty. . . a fanny pack!

i bet people thought i was crazy cause i just got a huge smile on my face and picked one up without hesitation and got in line. $2.68 later, my monday was awesomely complete. then i had more boring classes.

also something i have noticed about my self. i dont know if it is because i am more confident cause i am like man i have already gone through this whole getting a bachelor thing and i am just awesome but i talk so much more in my classes then i ever did in my communication - advertising classes. i raise my hand and actually volunteer answers without being called on. like today i was sitting in childrens lit and it was late afternoon and i was pretty tired, i had been up since 6 but i had been participating but my teacher was reading us a book and is was kind of lame so i was kind of dozing and in a little out of body moment and he asked a question and i immediately raised my hand and he called on me cause i was up front (which i have noticed i do that now. i am a front row sitter) but after my hand shot up i was like what am i doing i wasnt ever really paying attention but i said what i had to say, it was kind of dumb but i didnt even care.

and lastly what made me excited about today is the thought of training for a half marathon. i saw the flyer on my car this morning. it is a halloween run and it will be a cool setting. it is kind of pricey which i think is dumb but i kind of want to do it. i like the idea of training for something, i kind of feel cool. so lets see if i get the courage up to actually do it. and as i was sitting in the workout building on campus i was looking through the windows overlooking the pool and watching the swimmers and it made me miss swimming and i want to try and take it up again and go during free swim. i dont have a suit for it and they dont rent them here so this might be a problem considering it is fall now and not swim suit season. we will see what i can find.

well that was my monday.

fall is in the air

so i think i have decided what i want to be for halloween! some sewing will be involved so hopefully my christmas present gets here soon.

and i want to make this cake.

uncivilized

so i was just rimanencing back in the holliday times were me, holli and mikalyn were slackers about getting the internet so we made friends and would just bum it off of them. then i started feeling guilty about using it so i would crouch in the cold dark corner of our apt where i could sometimes steal someones internet that wasnt locked but that wasnt always successful so i then resorted to taking my laptop down to the bathroom in the managers office so i could check things. just me sitting there in the bathroom writing people on facebook. oh those were the times. then we got the internet after about 5 months of not having it and i didnt have to do those things anymore. i could surf the web from anywhere in our apt. but now, here i am again. laying on the hard floor of my apt cause i have to actually connect with the cable to the router. i feel by now the internet should just be in the air and i dont have to go through the annoying process of not having my password work. dang you comcast. i just want to internet it up in the comfort of my own bed.

the unibrow singer slash self talker with the mentality of a 11 year old

yep. that is the description of my roommate. she talks to herself so much that i think someone is in the room with her. and it is not the oh how quirky she talks to herself...it is the insane, needs to be put in an institution cause i am crazy, talking to myself.

and that is not all. she sings all the time. it is not horrible singing but it is not good. she sings the same words over and over and changes the tune of the song and she is so loud and it is so irritating when i am trying to go to sleep.

oh and she only watches nickelodeon or the disney channel and knows all the words to the songs. i mean i like a good icarly as much as the next 12 year old but i dont turn it on unless there is a 12 year old in the room.

oh and did i mention she has a unibrow. i know that takes the cake and initially i really wanted to be her friend because of it but then these other qualities hit me in the face and i decided she is more crazy then anything. but i give her props for sporting the uni and actually would love to do a portrait photo shoot with her cause that thing would be awesome on film.


but today was also labor day and i went and spent it with the family and we went boating. i went wake-boarding for the first time ever. i wish i had pictures but they wouldn't be embarrassing if you were wondering because I NEVER GOT UP. ugh. that is frustrating but i was reassured by my aunt that it is usually the second time out that people get up. so i will just keep telling myself that but for now all i have to walk away with from my wake boarding experience is extremely sore forearms.


BUT i was SUCCESSFUL in getting the blueberry stain out of my brand new white shirt which had only been worn approximately 3 hours before disaster struck .

hello again

summer recap.

worked alot at summer camp. had a blast with all of my coworkers. best summer thus far. last day was great. ended with the golden rabbit, some swimming, pizza party, heavyweights and a girl crapping her pants while giving me a back massage.

oh and i had my car broken into and my purse stolen. that was sucky and still 3 weeks later waiting for everything to be fixed. still dont have my license but not going to lie i feel kind of cool when i need to show ID and i use my passport.

went to seattle. it was great. loved hanging out with tiff. it was just relaxed and i loved it. started it out with some little caesars...classic us and some hocus pocus. then i got to see her play the organ and went to brunch and ate way too much but it was so good and got some cupcakes and had some awesome thrift finds. later that night we went to see the monks sing. monday involved a movie, some sushi, and a gay guy. perfect. then tuesday was BEACH DAY. i havent been to any sort of beach in i dont know how many years. the weather was perfect. and tyler came so that was fun. i didnt go in the water cause i was chicken and it was extremely cold. then it was just some hand out time at tiffs apt and then off to the airport with some ivars as i waited. perfect trip.

provo.
