Sometimes I forget that I'm smart. Then I get 100% on my Soc. midterm and 95% on Stats and I'm like- oh yeah... I have a brain.

Have your lips ever been so chapped that they literally peel off? I never knew I had so many layers of skin.

It's good to realize who is a genuine friend and who is not. True friends are rare, precious stones. ;)

I wonder how many times the average person pees every day. 8-10? Or is that just me?

Does anyone know why the guys you reject come back and come back and come back? Why are they so persistent?

If you want an intense workout, try spinning. My EYES sweat!

**I know none of this is important-- I am posting out of boredom!

Science= :'(

Can I just tell you that I hate science? Maybe it's because I never understand what the H I am supposed to be learning about. I don't think my brain has the capacity to learn complex scientific information. Why the heck do I need to know this crap anyways? Oh yeah- the whole creating worlds thing. Maybe I'll just marry someone who LOVES Chemistry and Biology and is a total genius. Then he can handle all of the complex stuff. And I can name the animals.



For all of those The Bachelor lovers-- wasn't last night a boring episode? However, I must say that it ended perfectly, when Jason gave Naomi the boot (she was so annoying and greasy). The part when Naomi's mom said that she predicts Jason was a mother in his "previous life" was hilarious. And then her dad... did he give anyone else the creeps? I am 100% hoping he picks Jillian. She is definitely the best! They never pick the right one. Never! Anyhoo, that's all.

W-O-W. It's 2009!

Okie dokie, sooo I was tagged. And I'm supposed to make 9 New Year's Resolutions. I usually don't make NYR's. But hey, what the heck?

1. Read my scriptures 30 minutes + a day
2. MORNING prayers
3. Get all A's this semester
4. Decide on a major (which means giving up my dream of becoming a professional taste tester)
5. Lose 12 lbs. = work out lots
6. Find a J.O.B.! (FYI- seCretary and seXretary are NOT synonymous)
7. Improve my cooking skills
8. Be nicer :)
9. Find time to read lots of good books

Also, somehow I need to make myself more marketable to NON-creepy/socially awkward/effeminate/immature/selfish guys. Ya know... the normal, kind, handome type.

I hope everyone has a wonderful year!

Seriously, people.

Fact: I'm 20.
Fact: People keep asking me why I am not yet married.
Question: Why are people gettin all up in my bidness?
Question: Is it that surprising that a 20-year-old girl is still single? Really??
Fact: I obviously haven't found the "one" and Theory: it will possibly be a while before I do.
Fact: I haven't even declared a major. I am pretty content worrying about that for now.
Fact: I will admit, I probably should find myself a boyfriend so I can stop lying and telling some certain fellas I have one.

Unless I am 30 (with cats) and not married, I don't think you need to worry. Thanks, though. ;)

My Life During Finals

This week is bittersweet (finals=bitter, last week of school=sweet).

Thus far, I got a B (lame) on my final for my Education class. I'm mad about that, but whatev. I scored over 100% (I'm not sure how that happens) on my Psychology exam. Go me!

This morning I took my Math final. If I don't ace that exam I will be one angry woman. After the 10 painstaking hours of studiousness, I expect nothing less than a stellar grade. Last night-- this morning-- whatever... my head didn't touch the pillow until 4:51 A.M. Yep. I studied till almost 5 in the morning. Obviously I didn't realize the amount of time I would need to devote to studying for that exam. Good thing my class wasn't until 11!

I have only one more test left!! My online class (honestly, I can't remember the name of the class... sad). It has something to do with the constitution and history and Nevada laws... something like that. A little advice for anyone reading this-- NEVER take an online class unless you have no choice. I HATE IT. I missed a few assignments because I always forget to log onto the website and check it. Also, online lectures are 900 times more boring than attending a live lecture. Just my $.02.

Moral of the story is that I should be studying for my online final right now. Instead, I am doing more important things like discovering I'm most like Bella from "Twilight" and that 7 out of every 10 men fall in love with me (impressive, I know!). It amazes me how much I learn about myself by taking online quizzes. Yeah, I'm a nerd, so what? I saw a link on someone's blog so a took a couple quizzes. Don't make fun of me. Well, I assume I have procrastinated enough for one night. Time to hit the books. Wish me luck!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Let me tell you-- I absolutely love this time of year. Thanksgiving is the perfect time to think about my blessings and cherish the wonderful people I have in my life. Elder Bednar's talk "Pray Always" (I loved this talk-- so inspiring!) from the most recent conference seems very fitting for Thanksgiving. He counsels us to periodically offer a prayer unto the Lord in which we solely express GRATITUDE for our blessings and ask for NOTHING. This week I am going to challenge myself to do that every night! It really shouldn't be too difficult. First on the list: I am grateful for my insomnia because it allows me to accomplish random tasks in the wee hours. Speaking of sleep, I need to hit the sack.

Well, I love you ALL and love Thanksgiving. It reminds me how blessed I am. Oh yeah, mashed potatoes aren't too bad either. :)

What's going down in China town?

I totally rock at math. You heard me. I ace those dang tests. The only problem is, I now recall the lack of interest I have always had in this subject. Hmmph. There might be a slight change of plans in my academic journey; however, it is tentative and cannot yet be divulged.


I eliminated gluten from my diet again. I don't want to feel sick anymore. You would not believe all of the foods that contain gluten! Obviously bread, cookies, etc. have gluten in them. But seriously... flour is an ingredient in my favorite candy, RED VINES. What the ?? Also, random foods, like certain salad dressings (?) contain gluten. And I'm dealing with lots and lots of other tricky gluten situations.


I took some totally sweet Myspace (don't actually have one) pics in the bathroom mirror the other day. I'm totally joking... or am I?


I started writing again. I forgot how much I love it. For the past couple of years, I have avoided voluntary writing. I think sometimes I let Satan get to me and I lose confidence in my talents and abilities. Okay, okay, I KNOW I do. I'm workin' on it.

The exercise chronicles continue. I have been working out with my cousin, Jill. We go to the gym practically every day. I am pleased to report that I feel stronger and healthier. I run on the treadmill a couple times a week, attend spin class about three times a week, and attend one night of "boot camp" on Mondays. Also, I lift weights a few times a week. Not bad, eh?

Honorable Mentions:

I voted.

I need a job.

I bowled a 36 (embarrassing!).

I am going to Provo this weekend.

My friend Lorissa got engaged.

I advise you to add a shot of chocolate to your Diet Coke at Sonic.

I hardly ate any Halloween candy!

Courtney and I got free hot chocolate at the gas station!

I got an 1 & 1/2 hour massage on Saturday.... oh heck yeah.

Ta ta for now!

Much ♥ A
