100...

So remember when you were in grade school and on the hundreth day you would have to bring 100 of something to count? Well I do. This is my 100th post I just realized. And actually it's just the 100th that's going up and staying up. Because I shall admit that I have psted things let them stay up for a couple hours and then taken them down again.

Anyways Wow. I don't even know where to begin or what to talk about or anything. It's all too much for me.

I'm not going to be in school next semester. I have to get a job and probably work more than full time so that I can earn tuition for another year. Hopefully if everything goes well this year I'll get a scholorship sometime in the future and financial aid.

I wanted to move because the rent here is too high for me really. I work to earn rent pretty much rent and food. But everything else is just as high except Wyview which I would live in but you have to have at least 9 credits, which is almost $2000 so why wouldn't I just go to school full time if I was going to do that. Wyview is also in a better location for working too. It's closer to the mall, restaurants, hotels and other such places where as where i live right now it's at least a 15 min bike ride. And When it's snowy out I'm not riding my bike.

I'm not riding my bike right now anyways because its crap and almost got me killed the other night.

So I was riding back from Tom's Hap Birt Party Sat night. It was around 11:30pm so there was a decent amount of cars on the road but not very heavy traffic. I was riding on the sidewalk because that's how I roll, deal with it. Anyways I was coming to an intersection and then the flashing hand stopped flashing so I applied the brakes...or I tried to my brakes didn't take and I rolled out into the street. You know how when something scary happens you lose all your common sense? Happens to me all the time, not that I have much to begin with. Anyways so instead of getting off my bike and going back to the sidewalk (as I wasn't too far int the road) I tried to turn on my bike which puts me in the middle of the intersection where three cars came wizzing by honking their horns and making ugly faces. Like I don't know I'm in deep right now thank you. Actually at the time it was scary but the one girl who drove by gave me this face from this f-minus comic and it made me laugh so hard. It's the one from yesterday where the little girl wants the doll. When you think about it it was quite funny. Well I'm safe now anyways.

Tom let me wear his coat home because it had longer sleeves and it was freezing outside. When he and Ethan walked me to my bike they were both like "There's frost on your seat" And then Tom wiped it off. Ethan offered to sit on it so it wouldn't be cold when I sat on it. They are nice fellows. Perhaps I should have let him sit on it because when I did I was like "AH That's cold" As I was riding away Tom was like "Please be safe I'm calling Kelin to get your bike fixed" I think I shall let him call Kelin now. Tom hates it when I ride my bike because since I crashed it twice this summer it's quite broken. If my basket isn't on the handle bars won't stay up and they move when the basket is on at the slightest touch. Sometimes while I'm riding my chain falls off. Other times my brakes don't work. But It's an adaventure. What can I say I'm a thrill-seeker that's what I do, seek thrills.

Kelin is Tom's friend who offered to fix my bike for me. Also my friend Robbie from my ward said he would fix it for me also. I will make brownies for whoever does it so perhaps that will get them to do it.

So On Sunday I had to give the closing prayer in Sacrament meeting and I was really nervous. So I was standing there saying my prayer and I almost fell over. I know I'm the only person who could trip while standing in one place. But everyone's eye's were closed so I think I'm good. Except then I was trying no tto laugh since I was so embarrased almost falling over and my roommate Kelsey said she looked up at me and I was grinning really big. Oh well.

After church my old FHE dad invited us to his house in Alpine for dinner. Only Kelsey and I went (which is a story I'd have to tell you in person depending on who you are) and it was fun. His house is hugenormous, and beautiful. His family is really nice. It was like his whole extended family too and there were cute little babies and toddlers. Also some other people from our ward were there. We had ribs, mashed potatoes, sweet potaotes, salad, and coeslaw. I also had orange cream soda twas quite an amazing meal. And for desert there was apple pie with ice cream.

But Kelsey and I had to leave early because we were throwing Natalie a surprise Party at another guys house in our ward. So we left around 7 and Robbie took us. We had to stop by Tom's apt so i could give him his coat back and pick up my baking supplies that I had left there from making the cakes for his party. He couldn't talk. It was sad.

The party was a success there were boys and girls and surprises and cake. So it was good. I talked a lot. More than I ever have before and I pretty much think it was because I was tired. I was definately just blathering to these two boys for like 2 hours. And it was nothing like word vomit just whatever I felt like saying. I mean nothing bad really just weird random stories I'm sure they didn't even care about. And they were probably thinking why doesn't she just shut up and I tried but they didn't say anything or if they did it would fizzle and I would start talking again. It was, in Ethan's words, no good.

In the dating scene I have been on two dates in the past couple weeks, which if you know me you know that's something. And they were with the same person and he wants to do something again this week. Yeah ask me about those and the situation in person because this post is getting long.

In other news, I wish hearts were like livers. Livers are great because they regenerate themselves but hearts don't when you get your heart broken it's just crumbled and it takes a long time to put it back together and I'm sure there's always that one piece ou'll never find. Kelli broke my heart yesterday when whe told me Santa wasn't real.

School...

School is going well


I got a 97% on a test the other day...well the multiple choice part I don't know about the essay portion.

I think I have all a's or b's except in stupid anthropology because my stupid ta I probably have a c but I can rewrite the paper. So that's good but I have another one due next week and I can't get through the book it's so boring. Also I have no idea what I'm supposed to write about and the ta isn't very helpful as she couldn't even figure out how to write a thesis for the next paper.

I have to write a paper for my living with plants class too but I don't know what the results of our experiment mean exactly because they were very messed up. Extremely so I don't know how I'm supposed to write a paper on a flawed experiment...whatev if the TA is grading it he probably won't even read it like our tree keys...

Astronomy, the only class I'm in for my major right now, is fun I really enjoy it. ANd it's way easy. I"m going to make a movie for an extra credit project about a star named Lucky and go through the life of a star and have the background music be Lucky by Britney Spears. I think it will be grand and I'll post it here.

Family History is way easy except the tests because you have no idea what youre supposed to focus on when you're studying for them. Hes like all the lessons, the chapters from the book, the extra readings, the assignments, the workshops. And when you ask him for what to focus on from the chapters he won't tell you because he doesn't want to give anyone an unfair advantage but it's like this is a 2 credit class we shouldn't be spending 5 hours a day studying for it.

Student development is easy except we have a group project coming up and I'm nervous about that I still don't know anyone in that class and I hate group projects

I think I should work in a morgue because then it doesn't matter if the people around me get my sense of humor they're dead.

Oh yeah no one ever gets it. So then people just think I'm weird. I have a really dry like desert kind of sense of humor and people always think I'm being serious and they give me these looks and are like "Oh that's cool." so I've stopped correcting them and saying "Oh I'm just joking." Because I do I really want to have to warm people up to me, if they are too weird not to think I'm funny they can talk about me after I leave the room with everyone else who didn't. Mean while the lone person who is laughing at my comments will relize how amazing I am and persue friendship. It always helps if I have someone there who gets it when I meet new people cuz then they'll laugh and sooner or later everyone will catch on.

I'm ok with people who only part get my humor though.

I mean very few people could laugh at all my jokes,

There are people thought that just don't get it at all and get all offended all the time and I won't list them but they should learn I'm just joking. A lot of the time there will be a group of people and someone will say sorry for something that really they didn't do anything wrong and I'll be like "Wow now we all hate you." Obviously a joke but some people don't get it and they all give me these looks like "wow you're a jerk" and tell the person "I don't hate you don't worry" sincerely.

I'm like seriously so then I have to be all like "I was just kidding you know" and usually they are laughing at what I said and are like "I know"

seriously

I don't know how this changed from school to my sense of humor but there ye be

Single-minded to the point of recklessness...

Do you ever let one thing eat away at you? I do it all the time.

Last night I was single-minded to the point of recklessness

I let that one thing eat away at me and it made me so angry and sad and I just couldn't take it any more

and I did something reckless that I kind of regret now

And the funny thing was while I was going on my rampage I was thinking to myself "You're going to really regret this later" I was right

Good thing that thought stopped me from totally destroying everything.

What did you do? That's what you're wondering

I deleted someone completely from my phone, deleted all of our wall posts to eachother on facebook, even some pictures off of facebook, untagged myself in all the pictures of both of us on facebook, went through my photo album and threw away all the pictures of that person or pictures that reminded me of them.

I contemplated totally deleting them off my friend list and being done with it forever

I told you it was really reckless.

I don't think they even deserve it

I think this was the outcome of bottling my emotions up for years and never having the nerve to talk about what's bothering me

If I would talk to the person then they would know and would could talk it out but instead I kill myself inside with the idea that i don't even know if it's true.

I's like that line in the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants movie where Bridget talks about how she is singleminded to the point of recklessness

Also that line where she says she's obsessed and as we all know obsessed girls can not be held responsible for their actions

Although she left out the part about having to deal with the consequences
