Flowers

I am still a slacker, nothing has really changed.
So here is the update on my life.

I was one of the winners of my friend Melissa's giveaway on her blog flowerinyourhair.blogspot.com
She makes these adorable headbands and flower pins.
You should definitely check it out.


They are so cute!
(I stole this pic from her.)
I highly recommend that you go to her blog and buy one, or two, or four.
Just sayin'.

I am fighting a cold. My head feels huge, my nose won't stop running,
and all I want to do is sleep.
Bring it on!

Tomorrow is my roomie Alyssa's birthday.
She will be the big 22!
I am so excited for her!

Thursdays

I am a total slacker.
But my life is insane, so I guess it is allowable.

Today is Thursday and Thursdays are by far my least favorite day of the week.
I got up at 5:50. Left my apt at 6:30 to walk up to the campus library and I
thought I was going to die!
The wind was so cold and I was not prepared for it.
So I work from 7am-1pm then I have class from 1:30-4:30pm and then I go to the Logan Library from 5-9pm.
I work 10 hours and sit in class for 3.
Thursdays are way too long!

Tuesday, however, is my absolute favorite day of the week.
I work from 8-1pm at the Logan Library then have my two classes until 4:30.
I went to Taco Tuesday with Nat and Car (Nat is moving to Pennsylvania
tomorrow, I am so sad!).
I saw my usual crew there and they always make me smile.
Dirty 30 began again this week and I must say Eric's play-list was definitely a hit.
I'd be OK with having Tuesday like three times a week. Just sayin'.

Classes shouldn't be too rough, just a lot of massive group projects.
My roomies are pretty cool, I guess :)
We have a lot of fun.

Last night, Andi, Alyssa and I went to Bill's rec. league basketball game, and we made signs.
He loves us.

This week I am working on being nice.

Here It Goes Again...

Two semesters left.
It is so scary!

I'm not ready to grow up.
But I am so excited that this is my last spring semester here at USU.

I'm going to be Negative Nancy for a minute and then I will move on.

Reasons I dislike spring semester:
  1. It is cold.
  2. There is snow the entire semester.
  3. It is freezing and I have to walk up to campus every morning.
  4. It is hard to stay motivated and want to go to class.
  5. My fingers and toes are always numb.
  6. It is hard to get out of bed and therefore even more difficult to shower and get ready every day.
  7. It isn't as fun as fall.
  8. Hang out activities consist of watching movies and playing games. And that is pretty much it.
  9. Everybody complains about it.
  10. It is cold.
Even though I really, really don't like the spring semester, I'm not letting it drag me down. Last night, D. Todd Christofferson gave a great talk at the CES Fireside. He talked about taking everything one day at a time. That is what I need to do. I am a stressful person. It is a fact. I am working two jobs this semester at a wonderful 35 hours a week. It is going to be rough. I am going to want to complain a lot. But I have so much to be grateful for. I am going to take it one day at a time and I am going to be happy.

This weekend I broke out my new tie dye stuff that Lil' Steve got me for Christmas. My shirts look pretty cool! I was joking around about how I should wear one every day this week and I was honestly joking. But then I decided that tie dye makes me so incredibly happy, why not start out this semester with some happiness? So yes, I will be wearing a tie dye shirt every day this week and I am going to rock it.

Bring it on, spring 2011.
2011 is my year.
