Destiny is at Hand

I thought I would have a really hard time yesterday because it was Thanksgiving and I'm so far from home, but it ended up being a really good day. I went with Kyle's family here in Salt Lake. They weren't boring like my family and just ate and sat around. We played a card game called "scum." I guess I had beginners luck, but it wore off pretty quickly. Even though it was about five degrees outside and there was snow on the ground, Kyle's family insisted on playing football. For some reason I felt the need to go outside and watch them. By the time they were done I was almost positive my toes were going to fall off. The good news is I won "My Life on the Farm?" Or something like that. It was basically like monopoly except you had to buy cows instead of houses. And you had to pay expenses when your cows got hit by cars, struck by lightening, or got out of the gate and onto your neighbors lawn. Well I ended up with 60 cows, wooo! So I've never really believed in ghosts. I can watch a million scary movies about ghosts and not get scared. But after living in this house for a few months, I'm starting to feel a different way. Kyle and I were sitting in the living room last night, when we heard doors slamming upstairs. I figured it was just Kirsten and Haleigh, but when I went upstairs, Kirsten was just sitting in her bed and Haleigh was in the bathroom. A little while after that we all heard something that sounded like someone was throwing stuff. I went up the stairs and there was a flip flop, a water bottle, and a lint roller on the landing. Which is odd because all of those thing belong to the girls that have been out of town all week. Those three girls occupy the third floor; I had been up on the third floor earlier yesterday looking for something and hadn't turned any lights on. After I found the stuff on the staircase landing we noticed that all the lights on the third floor were on. We have all had other mysterious things happen to us, but last night made me officially afraid. I woke up this morning with the mind set of going to work at 3:30 until 7:30. For some reason I rechecked my phone and my schedule said 11:30-3:30. Needless to say, I had a minor heart attack. The store was so crazy today. Thank you, black Friday. The thing I hate most is going around the corner, thinking a dressing room is empty, and it looking like a closet exploded in there. Come on people, let's be a little bit more respectful. I watched Sleepless in Seattle tonight. It was pretty cute! Now I'm watching Talladega Nights which, as funny and stupid as it is, it kind of makes me sad..I hate when things like watching a movie reminds you of something you want to forget about. 

First Thanksgiving

Today was the first Thanksgiving I've ever had away from home, but since I have awesome roommates, we had our own Thanksgiving. We had the works; turkey, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, biscuits, stuffing, and an awesome dessert cake thing. It was way fun making all of the food with everyone! When we sat down at the table we went around and said five things we were thankful for. 1. Being a student at the BC 2. My awesome roommates 3. My family that I miss a lot 4. The gospel in my life 5. Heat in our house, because otherwise it would be absolutely freezing. I still haven't had dessert yet thought, because I'm so full! So that "HORRIBLE" blizzard that hit last night ended up only being like two inches of snow. Weak Utah, weak. Glad everyone freaked out about nothing. During the "storm" last night, Haleigh went outside in her bra, underwear, and boots and stood in the snow, and had me take a picture..she was losing her mind. I actually went to bed at a semi decent time last night. I was rudely awoken by an alarm (one of those really obnoxious BEEP BEEP BEEP ones) it went off for like an hour and a half before I finally went upstairs to see why the heck it was still going off. Oh turns out it was just Ali..who wasn't even home! I didn't think I was going to get back to sleep, but Kyle came over and I was passed out as soon as we turned on The Holiday. I have seriously seen the beginning of the movie at least ten times, but I've never watched it all of the way through. One of these days I would like to. I'm going to end up being home alone tonight. Kirsten is at work, Ali is going to house sit, Haleigh is going with family, and Bonnie never comes downstairs, so yeah, basically alone. I wish I was at home..in Ohio. :(

Severe Blizzard Warning

So here's the deal. Apparently in the past like 22 years, Utah has only issued a severe blizzard warning like two other times. Today would be time number three. Some schools were already closed for tomorrow before it even started snowing, and they already closed down the mall. My roommates and I are having our own little Thanksgiving tomorrow so we had to go to the store today to get some stuff. Walmart was completely packed. Everyone and their brother was there. It took us like 10 minutes just to park. We had to wait in line for like five days, and the cashier thought it was totally okay to take his good old time when there was like 20 people in line. Kirsten called us while we were there and asked us to get her a cake pan. Once we got home, which by the way it took twice as long to get out of the parking lot as it did getting into the parking lot, Kirsten asked for her cake pan..it was nowhere to be found. We thought we left it in Ali's car, but no such luck. We realized we left the cake pan on the little spinning bag rack, I blame the stupid cashier for not mentioning it before we left the store. This cake pan was very important, so back to Walmart we went. Half way to Walmart..we forgot the receipt..back home..anddd back to Walmart. Trip number three to Walmart it had started snowing. Luckily we were only in the store not even five minutes. We bought candles just in case the power goes out. And if it does, we will for sure freeze to death. We have nothing to do tonight and we can't go anywhere. Oh I would just like to say that I slept until two o'clock today. I've only slept that late one other time in my life. That is ridiculous! It's a good thing I like most of my roommates, I guess I won't mind being snowed in with them that much! Although I'm very salty with Ali, who decided to go to West Jordan today knowing that it was going to start storming. Now I'm afraid she won't make it back tomorrow for our little Thanksgiving. I'll be very sad.  

Kirsten Williams

I can honestly say one of my biggest fears of coming out to Utah for college was making friends. I've always been a pretty shy person, so I thought it might be hard for me to be myself right away in a totally new environment. When I got here I tried being optimistic about my house when I first saw it. I was a little discouraged when the first girl I met was so much older than me. Another girl was moving in that day as well. I was so relieved when I met Kirsten. First of all, she was the same age as me, and she was normal looking. I think in the back of my mind I expected all the girls to be total Molly Mormons. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I knew I'd be able to be boy crazy and just crazy in general with Kirsten. Although I was still kind of nervous she wouldn't like me, because she wasn't the typical person I would hang out with. Or maybe I wasn't the typical type of person she would hang out with. We had the house to ourselves for less then a week, I guess, but it was what seemed like forever. We didn't have anyone to hang out with, but I think we made it pretty fun.

We went on adventures all around Salt Lake, well at least within the areas her dad told her to stay in. She very quickly became my best friend. She helped me do my first load of laundry! There really isn't much we don't do together. We have classes together, we have sleepovers almost every night, and we even work together! I love her carefree attitude and the fact that she is always herself and she doesn't care what others think. She has taught me a lot and I've shared a lot of cool experiences with her. I mean how else would I know about He is We?! I should be glad she even puts up with me, because I know at times I can be a pretty crappy friend, as well as dramatic, and overly sensitive. Kirsten is my best friend and I'm so thankful for how quickly we became friends. She made being so far from home a lot easier. Today is our three month friend-aversary and because of me we didn't celebrate. :( But I still love you, Kirsten! <3  

Justin Bieber Sucks

"Without Michael Jackson none of us would be here." Justin Freaking Bieber. I never thought I would care so much about AMA's or anything like that, but the fact that Justin Bieber won Artist of the Year over Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Kesha, and Eminem makes me want to punch him in the face. He does not deserve that. Sadly, I would have been happier with Eminem. Kirsten and I cursed at the television when his stupid name was announced. My roommates, being the funny, cute, sweet girls that they are decided that it would extremely comical to totally flash me as payback for "mooning" them all of the time. Yeah, that really just happened. My poor eyes. I watched a movie today called The Majestic. It was quite a cute movie. I would like to watch the whole thing again sometime because I slept through some of it. So I would just like to say that I have a roommate that every time she cooks, you would think she was cooking for a family of ten. So I was in the kitchen today simply eating the rest of my dinner, which was about half a plate of spaghetti, when she comes into the kitchen and says, "wow someone is hungry." "I'm just finishing my dinner." "Yeah, uhm never mind." What in the world is that suppose to mean coming from Mrs. Cook herself? She just drives me nuts. Not that I am implying anything, but I would just like to say that THIS, this IS my wedding ring. I am in love with it. I would prefer a clear stone in the middle, but besides that this is my dream ring. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. And I'm JUST saying. It's gorgeous. 

Snow is Lame

I do not enjoy the snow whatsoever. What is enjoyable about this cold, wet substance? People just rave over it and how they can't wait for it to snow, and I just don't understand. The only time it is okay for it to snow is on Christmas morning. And Christmas morning only. So last night I had to work at 6:30, so by the time I walked to work, it was dark. Oh and it was freezing rain. I had an umbrella, so I was doing okay until I accidentally pressed the button on the umbrella and it closed on my head. All of the rain on the top of the umbrella dripped on my face and my hair was totally caught. I didn't find it amusing but I'm sure the cars driving by got a good laugh, and so did Kirsten. I was relieved once I finally got to work because it was nice and warm and dry. I went downstairs and started sorting through the mess in the dressing room because whoever was in there before had not the slightest clue what they were doing. When I was finally on a roll, Kevin (my manager) came up to me. "Kelsey, what are you doing?" "Sorting cloths..(in a kind of duh tone)" "Go home, we are way down in sales." "WHAT, are you kidding me?! I haven't even been here an hour, this dressing room is a mess and I need to be down here! Now I have to walk allll the way BACK home in the dark, in the cold, in the rain. That is ridiculous." Okay, so I didn't say that out loud, but I really wanted to. I basically got paid about 5 dollars to walk in the freezing rain to work last night. When I got home no one was here, so I watched America's Most Wanted, which used to be one of my favorites shows, until I lived in a neighborhood where most of those people probably hide out. When Ali and Haleigh got home we decided to go on a late night shopping spree to Target and Walmart. I truly love Ali, but her driving quite frankly scares me to death. I guess it isn't totally her fault. I mean she does drive a van with no power steering and sometimes the van has a mind of it's own. Kirsten, Haleigh, and I stayed up until 3 in the morning dying Haleigh's hair brown. She is a sexy brunette! We were late to church this morning, but the good part about that was we got to sit in the comfortable chairs in the back  of the commons. I really enjoyed the Sunday school lesson today! Oh and how about them Bucks! That was a close game. Oh and go BYU, atta boys! I'm so glad the snow is melting already!

I Get Carried Away

I get carried away by the look by the light in your eyes. So today was eventful.  Although I didn't accomplish my goal, we did get the whole downstairs spotless. It took three trash bags and almost two rolls of paper towels. Kirsten and I tried to wait up for Haleigh last night, but we both passed out right before she got home. Kirsten woke up when she came in, but I was dead asleep. I woke up today around noon and felt like I had been hit by a car I was asleep so hard. We all started cleaning when we got up. Everyone who was home actually helped. Haleigh, Kirsten, and I went to pick up our first pay checks today. 90 bucks isn't too bad for only working like two days. Haleigh had a hot date tonight, so Kirsten and I decided we would go on our own date. We went to PJ's, or maybe it's PB's. I don't really know, but it was pretty good. I hadn't had a good hamburger since I've been out here, so that is what I had! We decided we didn't want to be that big of losers and go home at seven, so we went back to the mall. Congratulations Kelsey and Kirsten, we wasted an hour and a half..losers. Nine on a Friday, and I'm blogging! Dub tee eff. While we were in Victoria's Secret tonight, some girl came up behind me and waved one of the scent testers in my face and made some really creepy seductive noise. After I turned around she stared at me for a good five seconds before starting to frantically apologize for mistaking me for her friend. I saw her friend...I'm offended. Kirsten informed me that one of our roommates packed garlic in her suitcase when she moved down here. For some reason that really made me laugh. Considering this girl uses crap tons of garlic for everything she cooks, it does not surprise me. I get carried away, nothin' matters but bein' with you, like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day, I get carried away.

Bullet Hole

Yes, there is a bullet hole in my living room window, but no worries, someone covered it with tape..scotch tape. And the other day Kirsten swore she heard a gun shot, but I'm still determined that it was just Zach shooting his potato cannon across the street. I just ate a fiber one bar for the first time..me gusta! Anyways, the past few days have been really weird. I have had a lot of mixed emotions. I'm trying really hard to stay positive, and remember that Heavenly Father knows what's best for me and already has a plan in store for me. Yesterday I literally did nothing except go to IT class. I skipped my religion class to go to the mall to see Brian Martin. Woo! :) It was quite a short visit, but I hadn't seen him in forever. When we got home, we went over to Zach's for movie hunting. We decided to watch Taken. That movie makes me sick every time, because things like that really happen all of the time. My Pandora country station is my new best friend. Pretty sure my roommates don't appreciate it. Oh I also got to Skype with Kelsey and Lindsay yesterday. It was only a short while, but I miss them! Today was a typical Thursday. I feel so lucky to have the president of the school as one of my teachers. He's an awesome teacher and I love that class. I also really enjoy my English class. Especially our discussions. We read a passage called "Why We Crave Horror Films" it was quite interesting. Apparently because we're all insane and watching scary movies is a semi normal person's way of letting out that insanity. I love scary movies...hmm. Hahah. My goal for tomorrow is to clean my room. I have absolutely nothing else to do, so no excuses! I remember the good old days when I was super uptight and there was nothing out of place in my bedroom..HA! I would just like to say that Kirsten and I finding a centipede in the house=really loud screaming. Ew. I hope all the crazed Harry Potter fans enjoyed themselves tonight, LAME.   I used to have an excuse to make fun of people like that, but I suppose I can't anymore since I feel the same way about Twilight. At least the guys in twilight are good looking. Plus vampires and werewolves are so much cooler than magic..come on!  

I Love The Office

So there are so many quotes that I just love. I always want to be one of those people who updates their status on facebook like every five minutes, but instead of telling everyone my life story in my statuses I just want to put different quotes. So this is my solution..I'm going to just put a bunch of quotes that I love in this here post. 

“In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured.” Gordon B. Hinckley

‎"We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us."

"The weak cannot forgive, forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." Gandhi

"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."         

"Happy moments, praise God. Difficult moments, seek God. Quiet moments, worship God. Painful moments, trust God. Every moment, thank God."

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."  Marilyn Monroe

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." 

Marilyn Monroe                                             

"If life gets too hard to stand, kneel." 

Gordon B. Hinckley

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain." 

"If we do not feel like it [praying] we should pray until we do." Brigham Young

"Two people can accomplish anything, as long as one of them is the Lord."

"If ye love me, keep my commandments." John 14:15 

"If you do your best, it will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. " Gordon B. Hinckley                  

"I hope you will simply do what you can do in the best way you know. If you do so, you will witness miracles come to pass." Gordon B. Hinckley 

"Learning enlightens the mind, swells the heart, and expands the soul." 

“Seeing people change isn’t what hurts. What hurts is remember who they used to be.”

“We don’t have to be perfect, we just have to be on our way to it.”   

“Dance as though no one is watching you. Love as though you have never been hurt before. Sing as though no one can hear you. Live as though heaven is on earth.”

I wish I could do ballet until my legs fell off.

"No one realizes the beauty of love, until you're caught in it." 

Today was a much better day than yesterday. I got to sleep in until noon, I didn't have to go to class until five, and I had no homework. I got out of English early so I decided to work on some stuff for nutrition. For the first time this semester my nutrition class was pretty fun. We played some lame guessing vitamins and minerals game, and I won! I got bonus points. :) I got Wendy's after class, that basically made my day complete. It had been too long. I hope I can go grocery shopping tomorrow, I'm craving fruit! Oh wait, I have canned fruit. Oh...wait...I don't have a can opener. Rats. I love watching The Office with my roommate.         

Yellow Means Slow Down

My theory was confirmed this evening, Utah drivers are the worst. Now granted, this could have happened to anyone, anywhere, but the drivers in Utah are ridiculous, so I'm going to blame this one on the fact that they all suck. I was walking to a work meeting tonight with Kirsten and Haleigh. When we got to the cross walk we waited until the light turned yellow, then figured it was safe to walk considering you are supposed to slow down and prepare to stop when the light turns yellow, but someone going at least 50 miles per hour decided they were going to try and make the light. I think it's safe to say, I saw my life flash before my eyes. The car was literally five feet from hitting me. She didn't honk, slow down, or anything. Kirsten was freaking out by the time she got to the other side of the road and Haleigh was laughing hysterically. I don't think Haleigh understood the gravity of the situation. I ALMOST died. Oh and to make matters worse, it's rainy and freezing outside. The meeting was..a blast. We talked about all the fun stuff like making sure people don't steal, making sure people don't get hurt on the wet floors, and dress code. I tried to take days off in December for Christmas after the meeting, but all of the days I would want off are basically full. Plus there is a girl named "Kelsey O" who writes her "O's" creepily similar to the way I write my "D's." So I took the initiative and basically just wrote Kelsey Davis on top of everyone else's names. :) Anyways, Corbin saved us from having to walk home. I mean what are the chances of almost getting hit by a car twice in one day when I had managed to go 18 years without doing so? Probably slim, but you never know. Go back to drivers ed. Utah! So I have to work tomorrow morning at 10, which is fine..moneymoneymoney! Minus the fact that the big shots from forever 21's corporate will be there. Dressed as typical shoppers. So I will never know when I run into them. Which means I have to be overly, disgustingly, friendly to everyone that comes in tomorrow. But I also have to look extra forever 21-ish. I'm so excited..we just have school this week, then I have all next week off. Wait..I'm not excited considering I get to spend Thanksgiving with my roommates. I mean I love my roommates and all, but spending one of my favorites holidays with them isn't exactly ideal. And Corbean will be gone all week...lame. I'm going to try really hard to get some sleep tonight since I have to get up so early tomorrow, which means I should probably stop drinking so much Dr. Pepper. "If life gets too hard to stand, kneel." -Gordon B. Hinckley

  I miss and love this man.

No Regrets, Just Love

Just a Dream, I still love you, Nelly..not as much as I used to when I would rock out to it's gettin' hot in herrrr. Anyways, I feel like I've done a lot in the past couple of days, but I can't really remember it. The other day, my roommates and I ran over a shirt with Ali's van. Apparently it was really mean and immature, but it was funny at the time. Yesterday, I worked my butt off. I was suppose to be working the dressing rooms, which means giving people rooms and sorting, as well as running for a section of the store. The dressing rooms were full the whole four hours I was at work and I was the only one in the fitting room. Needless to say, it was hectic. But every once in awhile I got to see Kirsten when she would come to the dressing rooms to get take backs. There was a Russian kid working the front of the store, but I don't think he was doing much of anything considering he kept coming back to the dressing rooms to laugh at me frantically running around everywhere. We finally found out why our shower was clogging. Apparently someone who previously lived here decided it would be funny/mean/cool? to put nails down the shower drain. Dub tee eff. I swear people are so weird. Haleigh has somewhat of a hot date today. Some kid from one of her classes is coming over and they're going to have a Harry Potter-athon. And somehow, against my own free will, I got coaxed into participating in these shenanigans. I've only seen like the first three movies, so I guess this could be a good thing? Corbin thinks he can just walk into my house, without knocking, with Arby's, but none for me! Who does he think he is. 

I miss my brothers, Ohio, summertime, my house, etc. Just saying. :)

The Shining

My New Testament class was boring, as expected. Then I came home to naked roommates. Literally. Haleigh and Kirsten were on the couch mostly naked, watching Harry Potter musical or some stupid crap like that. Oh and they had the blinds wide open hoping that the "hot" pizza guy would see them on the couch..naked. We then proceeded to watch The Shining. That movie probably has the creepiest people ever in it. It started out pretty slow and was somewhat predictable. I was really confused by the old moldy lady in the bathtub and the guy in the bear costume. It might be awhile before I feel comfortable staying in a hotel again, or at least a hotel in room 237..REDRUM. I'm a little upset that we never made cookies. Although I did have popcorn and nutella. Oh and I wonder why I'm getting fat. Ha. Kirsten is currently wearing a pea coat over her underwear and bra. She cracks me up. No afternoon class tomorrow=sleeping my little life away. I should really start getting more sleep at night, not in the afternoons. I think it's weird that at home, I used to take like a three hour nap everyday after school and still went to sleep at a decent time every night. Here, I almost never nap, but I can just somehow stand to party all night, every night (not literally Robyn). I just don't understand people sometimes. I'm having a really hard time trusting what certain people are telling me right now. Frustration to the maximum level. "Let your hearts be comforted concerning Zion; for all flesh is in mine hands; be still and know that I am God." Doctrine and Covenants 101:16 <3 I seriously love that scripture. I try to read it everyday to remind myself, "it will all work out!" I have officially gone two weeks without cracking my fingers. I didn't think I'd ever break that horrible habit. Sleepsleepsleep. :)

First Day of Work

So I would just like to start by saying I still hate IT 102, hence the reason I'm blogging during this class. Today was my first real day at work. When I got there one of the girls who has worked there for awhile showed me around downstairs then they told me I'd be working in the fitting room. At first it was really boring because it was 10:30 A.M., and no one starts shopping that early. But then it got pretty intense. Especially when this one lady asked me to help her zip up her dress and she had super hairy armpits. Not only that, but the dress was NOT going to fit. Anyways, everyone I work with is really nice! Kirsten, Haleigh, and I are going to watch The Shining tonight, and make cookies. No matter how "stupid" Kirsten's dad says it is. Oh! Our devotional at school yesterday was given by John Bytheway. He's way awesome! I didn't get to even shake his hand afterward because he had to be at BYU right after, yet somehow one of my friends managed to get a picture with him. It's official..boys are so stupid. I hate them all. I really don't want to go to my religion class tonight. I love the New Testament and all, but an hour and a half straight of reading it doesn't exactly float my boat. Bad news bears...I have a freakin' hole in my freakin' pea coat. Dub tee efffff. Not okay.

Rain Rain Go Away!

Today is extra rainy and gloom. Oh wait..that may or may not be snow coming down now. :( Either way, I feel like staying inside all day with a blanket and hot chocolate. I wish Haleigh would wake up, and Kirsten would come home from school. I'm really missing little Dtown, Ohio. I had a dream last night that I was at home sleeping in my bed. I woke up pretty sad. I miss my mom and bruders! I can't wait to go home for Christmas. My first real day of work is Wednesday, I'm pretty excited..for my first paycheck that is! Just kidding, it won't be that much. Considering I only work eight hours this week. Oh well, it's better than nothing! So I would love to take a shower today, but our shower officially floods the whole bathroom. This morning I went in there after Kirsten showered, and there were two towels COMPLETELY soaked and the rest of the floor was wet. Dub tee eff..that is not normal! Kirsten, Haleigh, and I came up with a new invention, well mostly Kirsten; cake batter pancakes! They are quite good. We had yellow cake batter pancakes last night. And besides that, I've had chocolate chip pancakes with peanut butter for the past like 4 meals. Yum. Except! Saturday night, Kirsten and I went on a date. Just the two of us. We went to Olive Garden. Needless to say, it was awesome. Then we walked to Temple Square and had some guy offer to buy us drinks at a bar and called us crazy for not excepting his offer. I'm going to go with he's the crazy one! Just saying. I think I'm going to clean my room today. I already kind of cleaned the living room this morning since the cable guy was coming. All he basically said was our internet router sucks and we should get a new one. Grrreat. Yep, there's officially snow on the ground. Oh what I would give for it to be August again. I think it's time to break out the Uggs for class tonight! I would like to point out that I by far have the best roommates ever. Kirsten sang to me this morning to wake me up. :) She's so cute. I hope for some sunshine today!

"We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us."

He is We

He is We is amazing! The end. Just kidding, but Kirsten, Haleigh, and I went to Club Sound last night around 5:30. We got about half way there then realized we forgot our tickets. Kirsten was pretty salty. So we ended getting there around 6. We sat outside taking stupid pictures, playing never have I ever, marry/do/kill, and freezing. He is We was so good. They're so cute, but they didn't sing my favorite song. :( The Rocket Summer was good too. His sweat dripped on me. I feel like some people would be excited about that, but I personally thought it was gross. We ended up leaving the concert early, we saw He is We, so I was happy. Random thought: I hate LSU. Second random thought: why do I have a roommate that takes two hour long showers? Seriously..Dub tee eff. I dropped my math class this week. I'm going to keep going to class to get the practice, but I would have failed even if I would have gotten 100 percent on everything for the rest of the semester. Oh well. I guess I'll just have to go to math 97 next semester, because I'm stupid.While I'm on the topic..I still hate IT 102. I just don't understand why I would ever need that class for English 101. It just makes no sense. That's the extent of my exciting life.. :)

SALTY.

Considering I can't rant to anyone in this house without them finding their own huuuuge problems to talk about, I suppose I must do it on here. 

I hate rude people who think they're funny.

I hate people that think they're always right, and argue when they know they're wrong.

I hate when people don't respect MY stuff.

I miss my brothers. As gross as they are, the girls in this house top them by miles. 

I miss my mom cooking for me. I'm sick of frozen dinners, I'm getting fat.

I hate that I have an essay to write for English by tonight. 

I hate that I have class until 10 freaking P.M. tonight. 

I miss my best friend, Kelsey. :(

I hate that someone keeps using my silverware. 

I miss my clean house.

I miss being able to drive, even if that meant coming home when Robyn told me to.

I miss the people in my home ward. 

I miss my non spastic shower, that didn't go from hot to freezing for no apparent reason. Oh and a shower that I can actually move in.

I wish I could see all the pretty fall leaves of Ohio (Utah doesn't know what fall really is).

I miss being able to take naps without getting interrupted by all the loud noises of six other girls.

I hate that my internet sucks.

I hate that no ones cares that some people spend hours cleaning.

It's rude to keep blaming other people for something that's yourrrr fault.
I miss my mom cooking waffles every Saturday morning. 
I miss the random times my dad would stop by.
I miss Sadie.
I miss the missionaries coming to my house all of the time.
I could probably go on for awhile, but I should start that STUPID essay. I love it here in Utah and I could also do a whole blog on things I don't miss in Ohio and why I love it here, but I just had to get all of this out. :)
Oh and I hate that I just went to set my laptop on the coffee table and someone took the glass out so it fell right threw. Ha.
 

Poor Kirsten

For the first time in months, I woke  up at 6:30 this morning for my first day of work. It wasn't anything too exciting. We went in just to do paper work. Right before we were finished Kirsten decided she wanted to die on us. All of the sudden! She got really pale and had to sit down. Thennnn.. She threw up.. right in front of our manager. HAHA. It was actually funny afterward. Needless to say, Kirsten made another trip to urgent care today. While she was at urgent care I had a total OCD moment and cleaned the whole living room. I officially want to kill someone. I found THREE pieces of chewed gum in random places in the living room. That is so gross. Corbin and I spent our evening at Walmart. There are so many strange people there. Then we went to his house and watched Sunny in Philadelphia (weird show.) Then his roommate watched one of the creepiest/strangest movies I've ever seen. I don't remember what it's called now. When I got home Kirsten and Haleigh (the sickies) were going off the deep end. They were baking cookies and drawing pictures of Lady Gaga at one in the morning. I made them tea because I'm like their mommy, and I want them to feel all better, anddd they took care of me when I was sick. :) I just love them!
