Procrastinating Going to Work
I have zero motivation to go to work today. It's cold and rainy outside, and I want to just sit at home. I originally didn't have to work today, but since Kirsten quit the other day I'm taking her shift. Lucky me. I should probably leave now so I can go to the school and do my nutrition quiz that I'm pretty sure is already late. Yep the nutrition quiz was late. First late assignment this semester. I suck. Well anyways, work was kind of slow. I was upstairs for awhile then down in the fitting rooms. I guess they trust me enough to have somewhat "trained" someone today. I never got trained in the fitting rooms. They just threw me in there. I had a massive headache the whole time I was at work. I was hoping by some miracle chance they would send me home. After my ten minute break it wasn't that bad. Haleigh and Ty came in to visit me a couple times. Haleigh claims she went in every store in the mall looking for something to buy me for Christmas and couldn't find anything for me. I didn't think I was that hard to shop for. There are legit ghost hunters at my house right now. They have cameras, audio recorders, and everything. Not quite sure how I'm going to feel once we see what's on the recordings. I feel like I've become a lot less sensitive to other people's feelings since I've moved out here. I actually tell people how I feel most of the time, even if it is mean. Which I feel bad afterwards, but most of the time it's necessary. I guess that comes with living with six other girls. I guess it's good for me, because I've been told before that I'm too nice. My throat still hurts. I'm just waiting for the day when I randomly die from a sore throat like last time. Last time I went about two weeks with a sore throat, then one day I just woke up and had to go to urgent care right away. I wake up during the middle of the night choking. This is not a good sign. When my brothers were babies they had a hard time learning how to talk. Apparently that is common among twins. They also made up their own language, which is also common with twins. They would always call each other "mos." For some reason I told Haleigh and Kirsten this story a few days ago and we seemed to find it very funny. Now Kirsten and I always call each other mos which is even funnier considering where it came from. We even have each other in our phones as Mos. We're so cool. <3

I Blog, Therefore I am
I"m blogging because I am bored. Very, very bored. Let's see...Two nights ago I watched The Lion King and The Little Mermaid. Oh how I love The Lion King. What a classic! And I watched it again last night. I actually went to bed at a semi decent time last night. It was like 1:30, which is really good for me! Yet I still managed to sleep in until 11 this morning. I woke up to 28 text messages..in my mind I was thinking dub tee eff. Someone had A LOT to tell me, but it was just silly Pablo sending me one letter of the alphabet at a time like we used to. Gave me a good laugh. I went to communications with Haleigh today. I'm really excited to take that class next semester. Although, I hope I don't have the teacher she does. She's borderline crazy I think. Oh this one guy who I've basically been stalking since the beginning of the semester had the nerve to tell me that I broke HIS heart. Pretty sure that's false because he wouldn't even give me the time of day. Anyways, I'm very glad I went to communications with Haleigh. Something pretty good came out of that. :) Then I went to Walmart with Kirsten, Ali, and Brinna. I feel like we spend so much time in there every time we go. I was late to IT class. I hate being late. We did a practice test. Pretty sure I'm going to fail the real one. For the third time. Then Kirsten and I did our typical Wednesday night stalking of Garrett's life. And New Testament was actually really good today, not only did we get cookies and chocolate milk, but the lesson was really good! Garrett gave Kirsten and I a ride home. He has a really ghetto truck that I find really funny. Kirsten and I are about to watch Inception. I haven't seen it, so I'm pretty excited. Kirsten is ranting on about what a GENIUS the director of Inception is. I would just like to say that I hate the new facebook. Like, what's wrong with the way it was? Nothing. One more week of school! I'm so excited. And only like 15 more days until I go home! KAHK (Kirsten, Ali, Haleigh, and Kelsey) is doing a gift exchange and I have no idea what to get the person I'm suppose to be buying for. She's a bit of a picky pants. She gave me one idea, but that would only be like 1/4 of her present. I also don't know what to get my brothers. I'm thinking about getting them LDS Business College t-shirts to be super lame! They'll be ungrateful either way, so I might as well get them something lame. I would also like to say that this whole number game thing on facebook is really really annoying. We are not in 7th grade. If you have a little secret about someone like you think they're cute, why don't cha tell them! Instead of trying to make it all suspenseful. No one cares. My throat really hurts. I hope I'm not getting sick..again. I'll be down and out if so. I just got so upset that I have to work on Friday! Something came up and I doubt the opportunity will present itself again. I'm going to beg Haleigh to take my shift. I'm really hungry. Haven't had real food all day. Probably because I don't have any, but I don't want to buy groceries since I'm leaving soon. This blog is extra random. I'm not sure what else to say, but I can't watch Inception until Kirsten is done wrapping her Christmas presents. So I decided I'm going to stay at the BC for another few semesters. I'm going to get my associates here then maybe I'll go to the U or something. I'm not really sure yet.

Indecisive
I'm probably the most indecisive person I know. I hate making decisions. When people ask me something that involves me making a decision my response is usually "I don't know" or "I don't care." Even if I do know or care, I like to keep my opinion to myself. Being in college and being indecisive are two things that just don't go together whatsoever. Choosing classes, a place to live, it's all just too difficult. I hate change. I like routine and everything staying the same, but sometimes change is good. I just have to make myself make the changes. I like having security in things. Even though is doesn't always work out the way people say it will, I like when people tell me things are going to work out and they make me feel confident in the things they tell me. I think I trust people too easily. I will open up to anyone, which makes me more vulnerable to getting hurt, which is usually what happens. For some reason my heart is under the terrible misconception that it always has to be attached to someone. Dear Heart, STOP THAT. Love, Kelsey. P.S. vi.sualize.us is one of my new favorite websites. That's where I get all of my cool pictures and some of my quotes.

Christmas Wish List
So I already sent a wishlist to Santa of all the stuff I know I need, but here is my unrealistic wishlist. :)
Car. I'm sick of walking everywhere and bumming rides from people.
New phone. I REALLY want an Iphone.
New laptop. I love my baby laptop and all, but she can't handle much.
THAT ring. (As in the one I've previously posted on my blog)
To go home for the entire break.
Trip to Iowa...I mean somewhere warm.
Pink pea coat or maybe green.
A whole new church wardrobe. I feel like I've been wearing the same skirts to church since I was twelve.
A lifetime supply of nutella.
1,000 dollar gift card to Victoria's Secret.
A new place to live next semester.
Kirsten to come back to Utah after break. :(
Financial aid.
A real Christmas tree at my house.
New Chi straightener.
New pair of Uggs.
Nikon camera.
Hair like Haleigh's.
Meet David Archuleta.
Marry David for all time and eternity.
Live happily ever after with David.
Kelsey Archulta.
To be a ballerina.
Fast forward to the future, be a teacher already.
I can't think of anything else at the moment, but I'm sure I'll add to this list as I think of things.

Festival of Trees
Yesterday Kyle and I went to the Festival of Trees. It was this huge building with rows and rows and rows and rows of trees people had decorated. We didn't even get half way through the trees before we wanted to move on the to gingerbread houses. All of the trees are sold and the profits are donated to a children's hospital. I had to take a picture of the twilight tree. This was actually one of the lame ones. There were some really pretty ones that were just very classy, and there were also some that had themes, obviously like the twilight one. The ballet one was on of my favorites. A tree in a tutu. How cute! But the best part definitely was not the Christmas trees..it was the flipping gingerbread houses! Some of them were seriously so legit. I would like to meet some of the people that made and decorated them. So anyways, I worked two shifts yesterday. I got trained as a cashier. Being a cashier is so much more fun than working the fitting rooms, or being a runner, or just taking care of a section. There's a lot more interaction with the customers. The down side is, our computer is super slow when it comes to running debit cards. It's a really awkward like 60 whole seconds while it processes and people are always like "should I type my pin again?" No, just stand there and wait. Hence the reason I said, "give it a second, it's slow." It's also really annoying that you have to have a manager for exchanges, gift cards, if a customer decides they don't want something, and a million other things. So they give me a walkie talkie to call for a manager when one of these things happens, but multiple times last night I would call on the walkie and I would here it on the other side of the counter. What's the point of giving me a walkie to call YOU if YOU don't even have it with you?! Odd..

Working at 9:30 AM
This is going to be a very short blog, but I don't have to leave my house for another 10 minutes and I would like to express how I am feeling right now. So for some reason Forever 21 decided they needed to hire like 30 new people. Well guess what? Now they can't pay all of their employees. It's an outdoor mall, so when the weather is bad, we don't get a lot of business. Anyways, these people are pros at having people come into work and THEN cutting their shifts. So I'm really scared that I'm going to get to work and they are going to send me home. Not only would I be angry because I could still be sleeping right now, but that means I will have walked all the way there in the cold. If I come back home there's no way I'll be able to fall back asleep. Part of me is hoping they will call me in the next six minutes telling me not to come in, but I do need the money, and today is pay day, so I can pick up my check while I'm there. Oh I went to IHOP for the first time last night. Blueberry pancakes..yummmy! :) I had a guy at school yesterday tell me that my hair looks 10, no 20, no 60 times better when it's straight. What kind of compliment is that? Not sure, but I will be wearing my hair curly next time I have class with that kid! Just so I look 60 times worse than I did last time I saw him. Crossing my fingers I don't go to work for nothing!

It's December?
I cannot believe it is already December. This year has gone by way too fast. I'm pretty sure I'm still suck in August. Or maybe even before that. I feel like it was just yesterday I was at my high school graduation, but then again I feel like I've been out here in Utah for years. I also can't believe I've almost made it through my first semester of college. I feel like I haven't posted a blog in forever, but I haven't really done much the past few days. Work on Monday was pretty fun. I was upstairs all by myself the whole time and there was a total of maybe ten customers the whole time. I also got a walkie talkie, so I felt pretty official. I basically folded clothes for four hours straight. I really needed a nap that day, and I totally originally planned on going to IT class, but I didn't wake up until ten minutes before I had to be there, oh darn. Although, I did clean my room! It is spotless, and I'm very happy about it. I hung a sign on my closet for my lovely roommates telling them that if they wear my clothes or borrow any of my things, they should put the things back right after use. I'm somewhat tired of finding my clothes waded up under piles of other things in the living room, and wanting to wear something but having no idea where it is, even though I didn't use it. Yesterday was difficult..getting back into the swing of school. I spent most of my day writing an essay that I ended up finding out wasn't due until tomorrow. I guess that's what I get for not thinking my teacher's email wasn't important enough to read. And now I don't have to do it tomorrow. :) Before I came to college, I had only slept in past noon once in my life. And very rarely did I sleep in until noon, or anywhere close to it. But these past couple weeks I have slept in past noon quite a few times! My mom is worried that all I'm going to do is sleep when I come home, which is probably true, because it will be so peaceful and I won't have any distractions. Oh! Haleigh, Kirsten, Kyle, and I went to Temple Square Sunday night to see that lights. They are so freaking pretty! For some reason I just can't get into Christmas music this year. Which is sad, but probably because it still hasn't hit me that it's December! Kyle and I started watching Bones. I love shows like that! If I didn't detest Chemistry so much, I would totally love to be a forensic scientist. There was a guy in my religion class today wearing an Ohio State shirt. I told him he was my new favorite person, but then he ruined it by saying he was happy about the BYU Utah game. My roommates and I have a Christmas tree! It isn't half bad for being fake. But it is very plain. It only has white lights on it, but none of us have anything else to decorate it with. You and I collide. <3
