Sunday was an okay day. I was still really sick, and that really sucked. But I went to my parent's ward, and always enjoy that. This week was especially grand however, because I saw Troy Butterfield for the first time. :] He is attractive, and I wouldn't mind dating him. Ha. We will see what happens. :] Then I came home and basically did nothing, but lay around all day. I didn't have the energy to do anything else. I thought I was going to die. Ha. Tori ended up driving me back up to Logan, and that was quite a drive. :] We hit some serious traffic, and I thought Tori was going to loose her mind. It was scary. But we made it all in one piece, and it was just grand. This morning, I woke up, showered, got ready, and was way too ill to go to class. I thought I was going to throw up or pass out. It was not good at all. So I got back into bed, and slept for four more hours. Hopefully I'm getting rid of this stupid whatever it is, so I should be okay by the end of this week. I'm going to take some more cold medicine here shortly, and head off to bed. Connnor talked to me again on facebook today, and I'm interested in seeing what will happen when we meet in person for the first time. We will see. :] Me and April went to FHE tonight, and had quite an adventure with the girls from the first floor. We got lost. Seriously lost somewhere between Logan and Providence, trying to get to one of the bishopric's home. It was great. We were all laughing, and it was just a bonding experience. Haha. Then after FHE we came back up to our apartment, and rigged one of the girls nose to look broken, because she tricked her roommates into thinking that they had spent the night in the hospital, because she fell and broke her nose. It looked super legit. It was awesome. :] It was also the most social any of us had ever been with anyone in the building. Go us. :] We're so social. Eew. Tesha is freaking out about something nasty in our sink. Oh I love it. :/
Nov 28 2009
I didn't sleep at all last night. I was too busy saving my younger sister's life in every stinking dream I had. That by the way, leads for a very exhausting night. To top it off, I woke up with this massive head cold, that has just been taking over all day long. Lame. I hate sickness. It's so pointless. I saw the second Twilight today. That Taylor kid, is fineeeee. :] So, the movies made me jump to team Jacob, because hello, Robert, you are just a freaking weirdie. EEEw. You should never ever be shirtless again. Not even to the beach. Better yet, get a picture of Taylor's body, copy that sukcer onto a teeshirt, and wear that at the beach. Cuz you need it. After that I did nothing. Ha. I was too lazy and drained to really do anything else. I started laundry, which is good seeing as I pack up tomorrow. Then I hung out with Jennifer and Melissa tonight, and that was good. :] We went to WalMart, saw Bethany who was running off to meet her little love interest, and then we went back to Jenn's house to watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Which is a splendid movie, and I forgot how much I loved it. :] I'm far too sick and tired to write anything else, and well, nothing else really has happened.
Nov 27 2009
All day felt like Saturday, and it has really been throwing me off. Also, all day, I have been dreading the fact that I have to go back to Logan in like two days. That means it's almost Finals week, and I'm really not ready. :/ I'm slightly nervous. For my Bio final. Oh well. I'm going to try to enjoy my last little bit at home, then stress, then get to enjoy the really long break. :] That is my motivation. Today was a not very productive day on my part. Ha. I slept too long, and didn't really feel like doing much. We did get our Christmas Tree though. :] The same place, the same kind, the same whole ordeal. I have realized that i will probably have to buy my Christmas tree from there as well. Traditions, this family is swimming in them. But it was fun. :] It took a really long time for us to pick out our tree this year, and Caitlyn hates it. But to be perfectly honest with you, once we get it in our living room, it looks exactly the same every year. It's really rather bizarre. My dad also put up the Christmas lights today, and although there are no blow up shinanagins yet, they will be up soon. It was cool to drive home from work and see the house all lit up. :] It's my favorite part. I just wish there was snow.....I'm mad it hasn't arrived yet. Lame. It had better start showing up soon. I also worked tonight, which was pretty slow. Me and Tori are not as fast as closing as we once were. Ha. We were kinda slow. Oh well. We had a pretty good time. I saw Chad and Melissa. They came in with Danielle to visit for a while, and I miss him greatly. We promised we would both be better at visiting. So hopefully we will be. I'm really tired tonight though, and I'm waking up to work out with Melissa tomorrow. So, boring blog post.
Nov 25/26
Wednesday:
Pretty good day. This day was one for catching up with people I haven't seen for quite some time. Melissa and Jennifer took me to lunch, and that was very fun. I love those girls. :] They are just fabulous. I'm excited to get to be home for Christmas break to see them a lot more. I just have to make it through the last few weeks. Sprint to the end. Wendesday night was really fun. We went to dinner as a family, and I swear, we have just gotten weirder as everyone gets older. Then I met all the old Smart Cookie gals at Starbucks had we just chatted it up. :] I'm not going to lie, it was like really awkward at first. Ha. It was weird. I felt like I had nothing to say, and I didn't know how to talk to them. But then it started to get better, and everything was good. :] Phew. Then we went Country Dancing again, and this time it was much more successful. There were a ton of people there, and we danced like every song. It was splendid. :] I love going Country Dancing. It's just great. :]
Thursday: [Thanksgiving in case you were curious]
Today was good. :] I woke up super early after my long night, and went and got my Turkey Bowl on. :] I actually played this year, and it was pretty fun. I got bored fast though, and then just went and chatted with Rikki and Parker. We unfortunately didn't make it over to see the Single's ward folks, so no Stephen. Maybe some other time. :/ Then I came home and watched the Parade, and just hung out at home. It was relaxing, cuz we didn't have to be anywhere until way later in the afternoon. The Parade was alright, it was frustrating to me because the stupid Disney Channel hack jobs got all this spotlight and glory, and the originals, got the total shaft. They went to commercial in the middle of Cindy Lauper's performance. All during Gloria (something, the one who sings I Will Survive) she had pom poms in her face from the stupid cheerleaders on her float. It was really upsetting. Stupid new world and their stupid new morals. My kids are going to be the freaks in their classrooms cuz they won't have cell phones at the age of six, and an ipod in their head at all times. I don't care, my kids will grow up semidecent. Thanksgiving was really good. :] It always is, lots of yummy food, all the traditional stuff that no one likes, but everyone eats at least a little of. :] I love it. :] Thanksgiving of course isn't Thanksgiving without breakdowns, and yelling, and noise noise noise. Our family is really crazy. It's a joy. Our pageant was a little off this year. Ha. We didn't really have much of a script, and I just made the Indians break dance the whole time. :] But it was good. My mom spent a lot of time making all these costumes and getting this fake food for the pageant box this year, so we will always be fully prepared with costumes. I remember the days when we would wear Carol's scarves around our waist or heads and we were Indians. We would spend like an hour making up the script to the play, and practice it like a trillion times. Ha. Hopefully the younger kids will start to get more excited about it, and take the reins. :] They would enjoy doing it, if they would just try.
Nov 24
I decided today that the world is very small. I decided this while sitting in my living room. Nothing fantastic happened, I didn't find a strange connection between two people I knew, I just decided it was very small. Small world things did happen today however. I went Country Dancing for the first time in a long time, had lots of fun, and I saw Ariel. The girl I grew up with, and I saw her crazy mom. :] It was really weird! But it was cool, we like caught up on high school and what not. Weirdness. :] Her best friend's name is Patches. Ha. But that was about it. I worked again for Christian today, and cleaned my butt off. That raise had better be a big one. Me and Jennifer worked so hard on the big mixer. It looks great. :] Something extraordinary happened today. Connor, my Marketplace's boyfriend, chatted me on facebook. He talked to me! Then I gave him my number, and he text me, so now I have his. This is an incredibley large baby step. :] I'm so excited. We will hang out with them when we get back up to Logan. :] The word extraordinary fascinates me. Is it extra ordinary? or extraordinary. When you think about it, extra ordinary would make something extra plain. Or extra boring. So, it's not even that great of a thing. Confusion of the English language. I'm so excited for Thanksgiving. I can hardly wait. :] I like to be thankful for strange and simple things. Like the spacebar. Or the CAPS LOCK. Or the number pad off to the side of the regular keys. When you think about it, if you didn't have these things, life would be extremely different. I like to think about the very tiny things of life that no one else does. I would love to have been there for every cool invention. Like who decided we would need a spacebar? Was it obvious to everyone, or did someone specifically stand and say, "We need a key that will place spaces between our words. It shall be called the spacebar." If you think about it, all the people who invented stuff were viewed as really strange and weird. They were the whack jobs in the neighborhood who were always thinking of crazy projects that were going to change mankind. These projects did indeed change mankind however. Like Model T. I bet before the cars were big, people thought Henry Ford had lost his marbles. We owe all the stuff we have to the whack jobs who were crazy enough to have a dream. The history books are just one big apology to these people. We're trying to make it up to them for calling them whack jobs, even though they knew all along they were changing the world. I hope to some day be a whack job with a dream. I don't have to invent anything complex like the spacebar, but just do something that peoople think is crazy, that will benefit mankind. I don't want to be put in a History book, or get any fame from this. I just hope to inspire someone else to be a whack job with a dream. Everyone at one point in their life should try to be a whack job. Mankind might be a lot better off.
Nov 22/23 2009
So I'm doing better, at least I'm getting double days in at home. :] Sunday was pretty average, just went to the singles ward here at home. I met a pretty cute kid. His name is Stephen. :] He'll be at the Turkey Bowl on Thursday, so I'm hoping I'll get to talk to him then, maybe even give my number. :] Me and Parker went to Ward Prayer. That was interesting. :] The singles ward out here really isn't that bad anymore though. Just a little odd around the edges, but hey, everyone is. After Ward Prayer we even ventured as far as to someone elses house, and watched a movie with a bunch of people. It was actually kind of fun. I like the singles ward now. It's not exactly like the one in Logan, that I love, but it's pretty great. :] Today I went to work at Smart Cookie. I got lots of cleaning done, and just hung out with Jennifer, and Kayla. It was really good to see them again. :] Christian came in as well, and we discussed the store situation. :] He gave me full permission to kick all the girls into gear. It's great. I have an awesome power now. I'm glad Jennifer is there, she does good for the store. :] Then I just came home and hung out, and went grocery shopping with my dad and Caitlyn. That's always an adventure. Things like that are so fun to me. I miss them. I hope grocery shopping like that is fun when I'm married, otherwise I will be mad, and we will probably starve to death. :] I went to Rodabough's tonight to borrow a blender, and talked to Yvonne for a little bit. I like them. I miss them too. I wish I still got to hang out there like I used to. They're crazy, but a good crazy. :] No letter. I'm beginning to wonder if he is waiting on me.....we will see at the end of this week. I'm tired. And I miss Tori. :/ Ha. This is the longest we have ever gone without seeing eachother. Christmas break is going to be quite difficult! This is another one of those blogs where I feel like I'm droning. Lame. I will do my best to be more insightful from now on. I want something fun to read later, not just like I'm scanning through someones day planner. Anyone can list out their activities of the day. It takes something to learn from them.
Nov 20/21 2009
I told you, I fail at writing when I come home. I don't exactly see the point, cuz I'm with my family. But since this has become my only form of journal, I figure I had better keep up. So Friday, I did quite a bit. I went to classes, read an entire chapter for Psychology, packed up all my stuff, and headed home. I also took a Biology exam, but I don't want to discuss that any further. The drive home was alright, boring because I was alone. And I hit wayy bad traffic for like an hour. It sucked. Traffic is so stupid. But being home was good. :] My mom painted the basement, applesauce something or rather, and put these cool lamp things down there, so now it's my "bedroom." Much better than the creepiness of the basement that was doubling as my bedroom beforehand. I like it. :] And, may in the future, jack the lamps. :] Friday night was fun. I ate dinner with my sisters, and just kind of hung out with them. They're not all bad. :] Then the three of us and Parker went and saw The Blindside. And wow, it was the greatest movie of all time. I loved it. Every second. I'm so buying it. :] This day was tiring. :/ I woke up and had to go to work, to help Jenn bake at Smart Cookie. It was actually kind of fun. We got done really fast, and got a lot done, so Christian was really happy with us. But ohhh the store. It's nassttayy. So before my shifts on Monday and Tuesday, I'm going in to do some deep cleaning. Cuz it is needed. I wonder what Christian would do without me. Jenn is good for there, she knows what she is doing. Idk about all the other girls though. Kayla yes, but she's leaving soon. So we will just have to see what he does then. Looses it probably. He asked me to stay home for Spring Semester and work full-time for him. Ha. After work I came home and just watched some TV, because I was so exhausted. Then I went and hung out with Parker, Ben, Will, and Scott. It was good. :] I miss those boys. They are great. After hanging out at Ben's for a little while we went to see 2012. And oh my. Never see it. It stressed me out so bad. It's one of those movies, that nothing good happens until like the last minute. I swear I got five new ulcers just from that 2 hours. It was good, just wow. It's the end of the world all right. Scarrryy business. The first place to be effected was South America too. How fitting. Today was Yvonne's birthday. My mom bought her a blanket and a card. This is a very dull post. Blah. It's just relaying the events of my lame college life back to you, as if you were skimming the contents of my brain. Ha, but if you even skimmed the top of my brain I think you would die. I think about too much at once, so even a skim is like a full immersion. April has still not text me about a letter. Next week for sure. :]
Nov 19 2009
So right about now, my brain is mush. I have been studying for this Biology exam for about three or so straight hours. I had better do good on this test, or I will be seriously angry. My TODO list is getting smaller, but folks, it's still not completely crossed off. Bah. Today was just a long, lame day. I performed my thing in ASL, I thought I did pretty good, and I'm pretty sure I got a good grade. But after everyone was done performing, my teacher took the liberty of going through and reading the entire class each person's evaluation. Um, embarrassing. And I was mad, because he seemed to grade mine harder, like he does with everything else I do. Unfair. So that made me ornery. And, on top of that, when we tried to go to the Temple, THEY WOULDN'T LET US. Apparenty, we had to make an appointment. We have NEVER had to have an appointment. Ever. I was so mad. I just really wanted to go this week, but no. And, still no letter. This week was pretty much a downward slope for me. It's a dang good thing I'm going home tomorrow. We had the Silent Thanksigivng tonight. It was pretty fun. :] There were so many people there! It was crazy. And the food was really good. :] Tori went with me, and she was so lost and confused. But I think she had an alright time. I met some new people, and we hung out with them for most of the night. It was good. :] And, me and Tori successfully made mashed potatoes and gravy, and they all got eaten! Yay! So, in the future, I think my family will be able to survive off of the things I cook them. :] I found out the very best news today however. Guess who is in my FHE group? That's right. Eric. :] So, something positive did come out of today. Woot. I added him on facebook, so hopefully he will talk to me. :] We will see. I'm going to bed now, so I don't have to drop out of college. Pretty sure my parents wouldn't enjoy that.
Nov 18 2009
In case you were wondering, this is the second time I am writing this blog entry. My stupid possesed computer navigated away from the page, and erased the entire thing I wrote. Yes, I was almost done. Now, I have to start all over at one oh nine in the morning. This officially was the worst day. I had so much to do, and had to run all over campus doing a billion things. And I still have like half a TODO list to finish. But I have confidence that all will go well, and I will finish it, and be able to go home completely stress free. That is my motivation. I went to all my classes today. I finished TWO English papers. My Biology assignment. Studied for an hour. Got my ASL story all typed and printed, and fiinished my interactive paper for that class as well. So yes, very productive day, even though at the moment, I'm freaking out, because I feel like I got nothing done, and had a complete waste of a day. Me and Tori brought April to her meeting with the Bishop. It was good. :] She needed some moral support, so we just went and sat outside the Bishop's office. It was actually REALLY good, because I met the cute executive secretary again. His name is Eric. :] He is from New York, and has stolen half of my heart away from Nick. (Don't worry, my goal is still intact, and I have a development in the story. :] ) I also went and bought Tori a chocolate dipped ice cream cone. She was in great need of one. After our little shin dig at the Clerk's Office (which is probably the most social interaction we have had since we have come up here) we came back to my apartment, and had a little mental breakdown. :] There were only slight tears, shed by Tori, but it was just a random mix of laughter, and comments about things, that looking back, make absolutely no sense. Tori Creighton is having some boy issues, and she doesn't know what she is doing with Dalin. They could get married, and they both know this. So they are on break, and trying to figure everything out. So tomorrow, we're going to fast for her (and him i guess) which is a little weird, but hey, she asked me to, so I'm going to. Tomorrow is also Temple Thursday. :] We get to go after Institute, since I'm not eating anything, and don't need to be back for lunch, just ASL. I'm excited. I love mine and Tori's temple trips. Maddison was particularly annoying today, but I just left the room. I cannot wait to go home. Cannot wait. Oh, story about Nick (Marketplace boyfriend) so today at lunch, I didn't see him. I saw Connor (his best friend) however. So I was looking around, for Nick, and I made eye contact with Connor, who was looking at me. And so I smiled and said hi. GUESS WHAT. He said hi back. :] Although it is not the man I would love, it is his best friend. :] Baby steps. Tonight Taylor and Mckay came over. And I KISSED Taylor. Kissed him. Ha. Yeahhhh...... we will see about this. No letter. :/ I suck at patience.
Nov 17 2009
Tuesdays suck worse than Mondays. But today was actually better than I thought it was going to be. I took my Bio Lab Exam, so that is crossed off my list of things I have to stress about. And the lab actually didn't take that long, so I didn't waste away an entire day learning useless information about plants. We went to lunch at the Marketplace, and yes, my boyfriend is officially back. :] He is just as cute as ever. But we sat with Colten (the weirdo kid who does our fast offerings) and a couple of his friends. They were nice, and I like them. One of them was kinda cute. I then went to Sign Language, and just had a blast. Okay, no. Ha. That class is seriously boring me. Bahh. But I got my story for my performance on Thursday, I'm doing "The Snowman Storybook." It's the best ever and we found it at Hastings today. I also got my Career Analysis paper done, and feel pretty confident I did a good job. :] So this mega stressful week, is turning out to not be quite so megastressful. :] I saw the Indiana Jones man today again as I was going to my Bio Lab. There are some seriously weird people in this world. But I have learned, not to expect normalcy, because that is weird nowadays. At dinner, my boyfriend was there again. It was the most time I have ever spent within the same space with him. We left at the same time, and walked down the hallway at the same time. I almost didn't make it home. He looks at me. He notices me at the Marketplace. Maybe, yes, he is just a creeper guy, checking out all the girlies, but I have stalked him enough to know, that this is not the case. I'm determined to talk to him this week. That is my ultimate goal. I don't even care how weird it could be, I have to. It's a risk I think I'm willing to take. Hello, college only happens once, and it's not like I'm going to be geting down on one knee in the middle of freshmen-feeding-frenzy and ask him to wed me. No. His name. That is all I want. I just want him to know my name. Taylor basically texts me all the time. Hmm. He is interesting. I like him, but Idk if I really like him. We will see. I have to talk to my boyfriend first. :] No letter, still. It has only been a day. Ha. But I really want one from Peru! That is so cool to me. I will get something from a foreign country. :] He can stop writing after that, I would only care a little, but I want at least one from there. Me and Tori did an hour work out video today, and it attracted a lot of attention to our apartment. It was hard too. Power X 90 or something. It was just grand, and Tony (the abnormally buff man on the video, who mind you, did like one fourth of the workout we did) was a great inspiration to get us working. Now I'm sitting here watching April make a remote for a giant, dreading the fact that I have to get up tomorrow. But it's Wednesday! One day closer to Friday. :] Parker text me today and said she was excited for me to come home. Ben is too. :] Yay. I miss them.
Nov 16 2009
Oh Mondays. Are so grand. So I got a lot done today, I think. I studied a whole bunch for my Bio Exam test that I have in Lab tomorrow, and I went to an SI for the actual class test I have on Friday. Which were all really really super boring. My classes were extra boring today as well. I wonder if it is because I'm so excited to just get this week over, so they are seeming more boring, or if they are really more boring. I just don't know. But I swear, my entire Psychology class was asleep today. You could slowly see heads starting to sink lower and lower into their chairs, and from where I was sitting, it was like she was teaching a class full of five year olds, because I could barely see the tops of peoples heads. Who knew perspectives on personality should come with a drowsiness warning? I can see it now, the professor begins the class, and her first slide reads: ATTENTION. THIS LECTURE MAY CAUSE DROWSINESS. DO NOT MIX WITH ALCOHOL. DO NOT OPERATE HEAVY MACHINERY. That would be awesome. That is reallly all my day has consisted of, school work. Which is the appropriate answer, seeing as I am a devoted college student. :] Now we are watching GI Joe, and that is so far pretty good. I will let you know. I didn't get a letter today, but I'm being patient. :] Peru is very far away. (As we discovered on my map yesterday.) I also was enlightened today that Caitlyn and Cyler are together. Oh so cute. What is weird, is that they will date in the same truck me and Cam did. :] Haha ohh funny. She's following in the correct footsteps. :]
Nov 15 2009
Oh Sunday. I tread a little deeper in my grandfather's tracks this day. I got my very first official old people single ward calling. Oh yes. Ward Chorister. Here we go. :] We will be singing Christmas songs all year long. :] Haha you give Whitney the power of the song, she will choose the songs of Christmas joy. I also got my Patriarchal Blessing Recommend, so there we go. Soon I will no longer be wandering through this woods of a world without a treasure map. I finally figured out exactly where Peru was located today. Yes, I know, I wasn't entirely sure of the location of a country. Don't judge. Betcha can't tell me where Tajakistan is? Yeah. Didn't think so. Besides, sources say, Geography is an impossible class to pass. Went to church today, and me, April, and Ashley sat by Tryn. (Football kid in my FHE group) It was nice. He is slightly odd, but hey. Fan of being his friend. Then we stayed for all three hours, and came home. I got some homework done, and then we ate at the Junction. Sierra came home today, and acted all weird and friendly. I cannot remember if I have informed you, but she has been acting super hostile towards me. Idk. I don't have time to deal with diva drama. (Alliteration.) We went to Ward Prayer, and I actually talked to Grant. :] He is just adorable. Slight pole, but very cute all the same. :] I have a lot going on this week, so hopefully I get everything I need to done, and get good grades before I go home. :] No stress Thanksgiving week. That's what we're aiming for. Let's hope target practice pays off, and I hit that target. We all know me though. Archery is not my strong point. Also, I am hanging out with Taylor. He is very nice. Cute. And since he broke up with his girlfriend, available. :] He text me today, and we will probably hang out this week before I go home. I'm feeling a letter this week as well.Good week. Nothing like a good week. Nothing like a good week. Nothing like a good week.(My version of the red sparkley shoe poem. Now I just need a small dog, and three deranged friends.)
Nov 14 2009
Saturday. Me and Tori slept until eleven. :] Then, we looked out the window, and decided we for sure weren't going to the football game. It was snowy and chillly. But it was very pretty. Big fan. I officially decided for sure that I am going home on Friday. Yay. :] A whole week and two days at home, and away from school, super excited. I also am super excited about Thanksgiving. Because it is my favorite holiday. Hello, football. :] I have been waiting for the Turkey Bowl for foooorrrrevvveerr. (and now, I just want to watch Sandlot. I always do that. Stupid word.) It will be weird without Cam. Ha. But I'm excited either way. And, get this, I have to bring my own thing to the Yager's Thanksgiving. I'm so freaking old. I'm going to bring that yummy pumpkin cake stuff I used to make. I looked up the recipe online and everything. Saved it in my little recipe saver on my computer, in my notebook, oh yeah. I'm like a legit homemaker now. :] I got a lot done today, because Maddison forced me into my bedroom. Okay, so she didn't really, but she was kindaa being super annoying, so I just went in my room and did tons of homework. But I still love her. Then me, April, and Tesha went to the Marketplace, and it was really weird, cuz it was Saturday, and it was like a ghosttown. After that, I did some more homework. Then me, Tori, and Becca went to this girl's house, and played cards with her and her roommates. It was actually really fun. :] They were really cute, and I really liked hanging out with them. I think we're going to go back there later. Now we are back at my house, with the Taylors, Mckay, Maddison, and April. We're going to watch Saints and Soldiers. They even made us hot chocolate. :] It's perfect. More tomorrow. And yes, I'm going to Church. :]
Nov 13 2009
So last night I didn't get to write in this little thing, cuz we didn't go to bed until like three in the morning. So yesterday started off alright. I wanted to sleep through English, and all my classes infact. But, I didn't. I went to class, and there were like ten people there. But oh well. Biology was super boring. We learned about the life cycles of fetching fungi. Who really needs to ever know that? I don't care how fungi reproduce and plan to take over the world. I just don't. Anyway, after that I came home, and did some homework and nonsense like that, then went to lunch at the Marketplace. Again everyone, my boyfriend, is gone! I have no idea what has become of him. I am concerned. Oh well I guess. He is gone forever. After lunch I came home, and was going to finish reading my chapter before I went to Psychology. So I started reading, and next thing I knew I woke up, and the book was next to me. I was like oh no! Looked at my phone, and it was three o'clock. I was mad I slept through Psychology. But I just went back to bed, and slept for like another hour and half. :] So I got a very good nap yesterday. After my nap, we went to dinner. Wow, this day is extremely boring! Then me and Tori went on a date to the Girl's Basketball game, to see Jenna play. They beat the U, and it was awesome. :] The boy's won their game as well. I'm excited to go to my first boy's game. :] It should be sooo awesome. I can't wait. After that we came back to my apartment, ate brownies and ice cream, and watched....Tinkerbell! It was a very cute movie, and I laughed so hard I cried. :] Highly recommend it. Then Taylor, Taylor, and Mckay came over and we watched Jackass all night long. It was fun, I was just so tired. Ha. Awkward kind of too, with Taylor. But whatever. It was still fun. We woke up this morning, and there was snow. :] Yay. Unfortunately, I don't have any good snow-playing clothing up here yet, so I can't go play in it until after Thanksgiving. Now we're watching Kung Fu Panda. Oh college is just so great.

Thursday was long. Long long day. Woke up, went to institute, which was very good. :] I liked it a lot. Except, I think I need to go talk to someone, because I'm not exactly on anyone's role. Cuz I don't go to my class, and I'm not on Tori's role, hmm. I don't think it's that big of a deal, cuz it is Institute. We will figure that out later though. ASL was alright today. We just learned some more money signs. The class is getting better, but so am I, so I'm still really bored. Ha. It snowed today. :] Which was very nice. I enjoyed it. Even though I got my pants soaked from the stupid puddles, I swear I stepped in like every single one, it was still awesome. :] Hopefully it snows all night tonight, and it's all pretty in the morning. After ASL me and Tori went to the Temple, and that was nice. It was kind of hectic, because it was so busy, and they had everyone doing family names. So it got a little crowded, but it was nice, cuz we got a lot of time to sit in the chapel area, and just read the Ensign or whatever. It was good. :] I'm glad Tori got her recommend again, so now we can go weekly. :] We saw McKay's grandparents there as well. Cute little old people. I want to work in the Temple when I'm old. After the Temple, I had to hurry and get changed, and go to the Marketplace to eat and finish my Biology assignment. Then I ran to DESA, and had my first officer meeting. Ohhh boy. Ha. I thought I knew what I was doing. They don't slow down for folks like me. :] But still, I was pretty impressed, I think I actually got the jist of all the conversations, and didn't miss anything important. I'm pretty sure I understand my job, and that's impressive. Because wow. Ha. I was the only Sign 1 person there, everyone else was in Sign 3 or teaching. Yeahhh. :] But it was good, and then for DESA I was in charge of one of the stations. I liked it. :] I know a lot, and I'm pretty good at this. So we will see. After DESA me and Tori went and worked out, now I'm exhausted, and still have to finish half of an English paper. Bah. I just want to go to sleep. It's weird, I still get this weird feeling like I'm staying in a hotel or at EFY or something. But slowly, this is actually starting to feel like where I live. Minus the roommates. Ha. Yeahh. I love living with girls. :] (Not)

Happy Veterans Day! Today was just long and boring. Two of my classes were cancelled, so I kinda slept through Biology. Ha. But it's all good. Then I went and gave blood, which went much better this time. Except when she put the needle in, blood squirted out of my vain, so my arm was wet, so I looked at it, and that was a mistake. She hadn't covered the needle yet, and there it was just sticking under my skin, with this blood all over. Nasstay. After giving blood I came home, ate a sandwich, and headed off to Psychology. For Veteran's day, they had a 24 hour patrol on the flag, and as I was walking across campus to my class, they were in the middle of this program. I kept walking, listening as I walked. Except then the man on the microphone announced that the closing of the program would be Taps, played on the trumpet. I of course, being the beloved granddaughter that I am, was forced to stop and listen. It was really good. :] I even had a small tear in my eye. It was cool, they had all the army ROTC guys on one side, the Navy dudes all lined up in another place, and the flag at half mast. It was cool. :] Grandpa would have totally bawled. Psychology class was boring, like always. I cannot wait for the semester to end!!! Then I basically did nothing until dinner, where I ate delicious food. :] Nick is no where to be found, again, and I'm giving up hope, and probably going to be forced to move on because he is not fulfilling my love tank. I just can't believe he would abandon me, and give me nothing to look forward to everytime I went to the Marketplace. After dinner I went and hung out with Tori, Taylor, Mckay, and Taylor. That was an adventure. I guess Tori and Mckay like eachother. I didn't know this. Ha. So I spent a lot of the night with the Taylors which was interesting. They are fun people though. We played some really stupid Truth or Dare game on Taylors iTouch. And watched this sick show about this man who eats like large amounts of food. I think it's called the Challenge. It was weird. And there are some big meals at restaurants in this world. Holy. It's very late, so I'm going to go to bed. Institute and Temple tomorrow. :]
Nov 10 2009
Yay it's one day closer to Thanksgiving. :] Which is indeed my very favorite favorite holiday. Today was pretty average. Just went to my Bio Lab, winged it with the kids who sit around me, then I had to hurry home cuz we had cleaning checks today. I'm not entirely sure what we have to do now, not everything passed, but we were pretty close, but we're all slightly confused. But we had to clean in like an hour,because at eleven thirty last night Chase comes by with the assignment sheet, and tells us cleaning checks will be at noon today. Way to give us notice. Like half the apartment was already asleep, so there was nothing we could do about it then. So we just cleaned like crazy this morning trying to get ready for it. Bah. Almost everyone did a good job helping, Maddison was at a gyno appointment, and Jessica just sat in her room (lame). Oh well. Then I went to ASL and sat there pretty bored out of my mind again. Ha. But oh well. Then I came home, and did a little homework, and some research on whether or not I think I can afford to go to summer semester. We will see how it all goes. I don't think I'm going back to Smart Cookie, cuz Christian is being kinda a jerk to me. We will see. I just want it to be Thanksgiving. But ah. Then I have Finals. But guess what, I'm not that scared about them. The Psychology and Bio ones are both not on everything, just the most recent chapter, and my ASL one should be no problem. :] I'm pretty sure that English doesn't have a final, so that is good as well. I feel like I pretty much wasted this day away. Oh yes, I did go to the Bookstore and checked out the scarves there, and I really liked this set with like a hat, scarf and mittens. :] I want it badly. :] Dad said I could probably combine it with Christmas, and get it. Woo. Then I went to Wal Mart and did some quality grocery shopping. But I forgot my green WalMart bags! I was so frustrated. So basically as of now, they are a complete waste. I will remember to use them next time for sure. We went to dinner. Something terrible has occurred. My boyfriend is no where to be found. (PS April thinks she is soooo funny by interjecting her comments when I accidentally say things out loud. Thought I would let you know, she wanted me to say that the something terrible was that she was so much cooler than me. Ha. Right.) Anyway, my boyfriend. The football kid Nick, has not been seen for like a week. He has vanished. I'm getting nervous. Then me and Tori went and worked-out, and it was extremely hard. Haha I'm exhausted. And this stupid new diet thing Tori wants me to do with her doesn't allow us to eat after like eight thirty, and I was so hungry when I got home, and my roommates went to McDonalds. They torture me with their greasy excuse for hamburgers and french fries. But ohh they are so greasy good. This stupid thing is harder than I thought.
Nov 9 2009
Mondays generally suck. Today however, was actually pretty great. :] I got a pretty good score on my Psychology test, English wasn't too boring, I found out about a serious grade problem in my Bio class, and fixed it before it was too late. :] Me and Tori started our no sugar diet today, and I made it all day. :] However, the temptation is so much worse when you know you can't eat it. It's really annoying. But the best news, I got a letter from Cam! He wrote me first. :] So great. Ha. It was awesome. I will save it, so I'm not going to relay every thing his letters say. I sent mine to him today, so he might be kind of confused, but I'm hoping he will figure it out, and I won't have to. Ha. Oh, and I may have possibly met a new boy today. His name is Pierce Bennett, and his uncle is Bob Bennet, the senator. :] He's really cute, and we're friends on facebook, so we will see if we ever hang out. He has been talking to Maddison, so maybe she can work something out. I just want it to be Thanksgiving. I cannot wait. :] Me and Tori worked out hard tonight. My foot hurts, and I'm really tired. But it was good. :] When I came home though, Tesha like screamed my name, and kept yelling over and over, "Whitney, you're home!" It freaked me out. Sierra and April pulled open their slider door, and I was legitimately terrified something horrible was going to follow them out, and get me. So I like ran back to my room and shut the door. On my bed, all my stuffed animals and stuff were moved to like the middle of my bed, and the whiteboard from the fridge was sitting on top of them with "CAREFUL, LOOK UNDERNEATH." It was creepy. So first, I like looked under my bed, cuz I thought that was what the note was directing me to do, but then I looked under all the stuffed animals, and my roommates had bought me a new Marilyn poster!! It's so cute. :] And totally completes the entie bedroom. So, today, was very clearly a very good day. Until I logged onto here, and Drew facebook chatted me. Gah. He's a retard. Oh well.
Nov 8 2009
Today was my nineteenth birthday. Woot. I didn't really do much, but I will write in here anyway, because it is my birthday. I woke up super early, probably because of the large amount of sleep I got yesterday. But I woke up at like eight, showered, and then finished my entire annotated bibliography for English. Then I wrote most of Cam's letter. Then I went to church. It was Ward Conference, and the whole focus was on The Family A Proclamation to the World. It was very good. I went all by myself, because none of my roommates that do go, were around to go with me. So yes. But Tori got her recommend renewed today, so we can start going again next week. :] Yay. After church I came home, did a little bit of homework, finished off Cam's letter, wathced half an episode of Monk and then went to the Junction with Sierra and Tesha. I hate the Junction. It just is not as appealing as the Marketplace. Bah. But then we came home, and Tori and Lissy came over, and we made a Funfetti cake, and watched Monsters vs. Aliens. It was cute, but not as good as Ice Age 3. Not even close. I want to watch that one again. :] I talked to Jake today, which was weird. I haven't talked to him in ages! He is still in love with me, and still a creeper. :] But he is nice enough. He leaves on his mission on the 18th. I told him I would write him, and I will, like once or twice. He deserves at least that. Everyone called or text or facebooked me Happy Birthday and that was very great. :] Today was actually a pretty good day. All I want for my birthday now is to pass my Psychology test tomorrow, and Nick. :] Ha. Yes, I still want Nick. I am determined to try. I'm tired. Goodnight. :]
Nov 7 2009
Yay for Saturdays. :] Let us see. Today started off great. Ha. Actually, no. I woke up this morning, to Tori telling me that we needed to go bring Lissy her wallet at IHOP, because she left it in her car, and she didn't want to go alone. Rage at Lissy. So I crawl out of bed, grab a sweatshirt, curse Lissy the entire way to IHOP, get there, and am furious, and then all my roommates reveal themselves. They all surprised me for my birthday. It was very sweet, even though I was angry. :] It was fun. After IHOP me and Tori came back, and slept until two. Yes, two in the afternoon. Ha. We have been very tired lately. Then I got up, cleaned the apartment, and showered, and waited for my parents arrival. When they got here, they gave me the cinnamon pinecones I have been dying for so apartment doesn't smell horrid anymore, and they gave me Ugg boots for my birthday. :] Yay. Now, my feet will not freeze in the harsh winters of Logan Utah. Then we headed off to Texas Roadhouse for my birthday dinner. :] It was a freaking long wait, and I thought I was going to starve to death, but we finally got seated. :] It was so yummy!! I love real food. Ha. It was good, I like seeing my family, and eating at a good restaurant. For my birthday they sat me on this saddle chair thing, and like made the whole restaurant give me a "Yeee-haw." Awesome me almost knocked the stupid thing over trying to get on. Embarrassing. Ha. But it was alright. There are lovely pictures on facebook. Then my family went home, and me and Tori came back to the apartment. After watching the Real Housewives of Orange County with Maddison, we went and rented Ice Age 3, and watched it with Ashley and Maddison. It was so funny. :] I loved it. Very good movie. And now I'm going to bed. Yay. I'm nineteen. So old. Bahh. :]
Nov 6 2009
Friday woot. So I realized today, that the Friday compliment guys have been no where to be found lately. And this sort of depressed me. I'm sad they gave up on such an endeavor so early into the school year! What else could they possibly have to do in the middle of the semester?? Come on. But, my spirits were risen today, because there was a different form of entertainment on the TSC patio, a juggler. A very coordinated juggler (as jugglers mostly are coordinated, but this one especially, and I probably pick out this specific trait, because it is one I clearly lack.) Anyway, he was juggling these amazingly obnoxious neon bowling pins, and was very focused. I was very impressed. So my Friday was complete with a little bit of entertainment at least. I am so tired lately! It's lame. Today I like fell asleep while Tori was doing homework, and I was trying to do homework before lunch and Psychology. Bah. It was bad. I have a test on Monday, so I need to study. I'll devote tomorrow to that though. Me and Tori didn't get to work out today, which was lame, but oh well. I will probably go tomorrow morning, whether or not she joins me. No Nick sightings today, but Sierra and Maddison saw him. Which was good at least. I am terrified of the Swine Flu, haha. I can't live here anymore. It's killing me. I like almost had a mental breakdown. Bah. Oh well. It will be okayy. I hate germs even more now. We went to the 3 dollar movie tonight, and saw Surrogates. It was actually pretty good. Kind of a creepy concept, but I liked the movie. I'll add it to my list for Cam. Maybe. Haha it was weird, so Idk if he will like it. Now we are just hanging out in the common room, not doing anything really. I will probably be going to bed here soon, but Idk where Tori disappeared to. Hmmm. Oh well. If she wants to gallavant around with Lissy, so be it. :] My family is coming up tomorrow and we're going to dinner! Yay! Real dinner. :]
Nov 5 2009
Tonight's blog is going to be short and sweet because I was up late trying to figure out stupid registration stuff. But that is all finished now, so yay. Today was actually a really great day. :] I went to institute, saw Drew, who acted like a jerk, and therefore cleared himself from my mind. Then I went to ASL,and King was gone, so Jon taught, which is always a plus. Then after class I sat around and talked with Tracy and Jon, and this kid named Nick. And guess what. I found Laura. The girl from kindergarten who sparked my whole interest in the Deaf world. Excitement I know. It's great. :] We are friends on Facebook, and have been chatting throughout the day. Super cool. :] And then I went to the Library, got some homework done, came home cleaned my room, then me and Tesha went to the Marketplace together. Which was pretty great. No boyfriend though. :[ Oh well. Then I went to DESA, where we played a hand shape game, Amy gave us a hand shape, and we had to think of all the signs we could that incorporated that hand shape. It was fun. Me, Tracy, and Nate won, because Jon cheated. Go us. :] Then they made me and Tracy DESA officers. :] So, today was a really great day. Woo. Now I'm going to bed, cuz I have to wake up in like five hours. Booo.
Nov 4 2009
Bah. Wednesdays. Let's see, I was up at the crack of dawn to trudge across campus to my English class, where I accomplished pretty much absolutely nothing. Ha. I hate that class. A lot. Then I went to Biology, and pretty much fell asleep. It was soo boring. Like I wanted to die. Haha. Then I went to ASL Lab, and Jon was sick, so the kid that I always see at DESA was there, but Idk his name. Haha. I will learn it. He's funny. And he speaks well, and I think he may have a hearing aid. Anyway. Then we went to the Marketplace and just hung out and ate for a while. I must admit, I have become slightly stalkerish towards this kid. I know his name now though, Nick. :] He is so attractive. Soooooooo. I'm determined to talk to him. So I stalked him at lunch, and then came home and tried to sleep. I ended up just watching Glee, and being really ornery cuz I couldn't sleep. So then I tried again, and finally got a little bit of sleep. Until the efffing runnning club. I hated running before, but now, rage. They had their weekly meeting or whatever, right below my window, and I swear that they just all felt the need to scream every blasted word they said. I was so annoyed. So my nap was over before I was really ready for it to be over. Oh well. I'm going to bed earlier tonight, and maybe, might take a Melatonin. Ha. Anyway, we went to dinner at the Marketplace, and Nick was there again. Of course. :] I walked like inches from him though, and he smells so good. :] Haha I'm such a creep. But it was fun. We just hung out for a long while, me, April, and Sierra. We were laughing pretty hard. Now I'm home, doing nothing, when I should be doing homework stuff. Ha. But oh well. I'm kinda dreading tomorrow, cuz I will be forced to see Drew. Bah. Which could potentially be very awkward. We will just have to see. Maddison is asking me church questions again, this time I don't have Cam to ask. He loved helping. :/ Oh well. I need his address anyone reading this! I think me and Tori are taking a night off of working out. Ha. We deserve just one a week right? She is on this weird thing where she wants to try epicate. Sick. That nasty stuff that makes you throw up for no reason. She's a freak. I don't know about you, but I don't really get a kick out of barfing everything I had previously eaten out for fun. Woo. Party thrill.
Nov 3 2009
Today was alright I guess. Ha. Just a regular old Tuesday. My Bio Lab class was extremely boring, like always, and today it almsot took the whole time! I sat there just learning all about different types of fungi and mold. Quality way to spend my time. But the very best part, are you ready for this? My Bio teacher was like "Oh class, remember how I told you never to eat in this classroom? Well these little dishes of toxic mold were open for only a couple of seconds, and they spread to the dishes down the other side of the counter. So case and point." And she continued on with her lesson. Bah. I sat there, silently freaking out about how the stupid TA was going to kill us all, and it was going to be with mold, and how highly appropriate way to die that was for me. Then I came home, went to the Marketplace with my roommates, and then headed off to ASL. Sign Language was semi boring today. We learned classifiers, and I was super bored. Ha. But Dr. King picked on me again. Gah. But oh well. I'm learning. :] After ASL I came home, and did a little bit of homework, then watched an episode of Glee before going to dinner. I like am in love with that show. It makes me laugh so hard. It's like let's all just watch a bunch of angsty teenagers with social disorders sing and perform on stage. Top that off with some whacked out adults, who can't escape high school or the past lives that haunt them, and wahla, you have something great. :] Then we went to the Marketplace again. Ha. I just love how we eat there so very much. But, I saw the hottest kid ever again. I see him there like daily, and I just love to stare, but I'm getting sick of staring. So I told everyone today, that he was what I wanted for my birthday. :] Haha they all think I'm so weird, but I don't care. I guess he is in Sierra's math class, and I told her to tell him that her roommate wanted him for her birthday. She said no, and that I was a freak. But I'm going to get her to get me at least his name. :] That is enough for now. Tori wants his best friend, so it would work out splendidly. Oh, and his body is like a Greek God. But that doesn't really weigh my vote in his direction much, if at all. He's a football player as well. :] Then me and Tori went on an adventure to look at new apartments. We went to two, and the second one we went to is so adorable! We looked at the outside when we were up here looking at apartments, but not the inside. I absolutely love it. :] If I make the ATeam, and have to be up here this summer, I'm totally living there. If not next semester. We will just have to see. :] It's cheaper than the LLC, and I would probably live shared with Tori anyway. After that, me and Tori went and worked out. Now we're watching Pearl Harbor. I have class early tomorrow however, so I'm probably just going to go to bed. I heard from Drew. Kinda. I chatted him on facebook, so I know he is alive at least. We will see. He said he would talk to me soon, and idk if he means Thursday in institute soon, or he will actually make some effort here. Deric said I would probably be haning out with him real soon, but part of me thinks he was just saying that cuz he's like that. Oh well. You're so beautiful it hurts. I love this movie.
Nov 2 2009
Mondays are just never very much fun. Today was an averagely boring day. I went to all my classes, met with my advisor about classes for Spring Semester, blah blah. Boring school day. This week is kind of chaotic, because I have a lot of reading to do, and we just got a new project in English that is going to demand some attention. Luckily there are no boys to distract me from this. Yes, I still have not heard from Drew. Pff. Oh well I guess. His loss right? :] I went to FHE tonight, and April came along with me. It was actually kind of fun. :] Our family is really strange, kind of the odds and ends of people that live here. Ha. But there is this kid, whose name I'm not sure of, I think it's like Trin or something, but he plays football here, and he is pretty cool. He was talking to me a lot of the night. He isn't cute really though. But nice enough. :] He freaking trapped me in the elevator though! It was so scary! He wouldn't let me out, and then he picked me up off the ground, and carried me out. He is a brave soul. Haha. After FHE me and Tori went to the Fieldhouse to work out, and it was super crowded, but at least we got to work out. Because we have totally slacked off in that department. Ha. Then I came home and just hung out with Tesha, April, and Maddison. It was fun. :] We are the most random group of girls. Ha. But I love that we all can get along. Maybe tomorrow something interesting will happen.
Nov 1 2009
Yay! It's November! This weekend has been pretty fun, and you're just hearing about it now, cuz remember I suck at writing in the blog when I go home. So Friday, boring classes, I didn't wake up for English, and then I just kinda chilled until Tori got out of class, and then we drove home. Which was just great. :] There were no problems with my car, or anything like that. It was great. We went to my house first, just to pick some stuff up, and drop off Tori's dress, and then we went to Tori's because it was her birthday and what not. We had dinner with her family, and then cupcakes, and then we carved pumpkins with her little brothers and sisters. It was fun. :] Our pumpkin was weird shaped, so we had a really hard time deciding what we were going to carve into it, but we eventually carved a ghost, and a grave, and a moon. It was adorable. :] After that we went to Wal Mart, and then just went to bed. We were both really really tired from the day, and the drive. Saturday (Halloween) we woke up, and started getting ready for Halloween, her sister started curling her hair, and fun things like that. It took forever, but it turned out really pretty, and then we both got all dressed, and went to my aunt Carol's Halloween party. It was fun, not like they used to be, probably because I'm so old, but it was good. :] It was good to see like all the extended family and such, cuz I haven't seen them for a long while. It just made me excited for Thanksgiving though. :] After Carol's we went back to Tori's to gather up all our stuff, and then we headed back up to Logan. We had only come down for the night to go to Carol's thing, and pick up/drop off a couple of things at home, and Tori wanted to see her family for her Birthday. But we drove to Logan in record time. :] It took us less than an hour and a half. I was a speed demon. :] Then we hung out at my house, and got all ready for the Howl, which is a big party that USU throws every Halloween, and everyone goes. It was awesome!! We all looked really good, and were all super excited. It was crazy how many people were there. I was shocked! They did a really good job too. They had an oxygen bar, and soft drinks bar, and then the dance floor, and then in the basement they had games and stuff. The dance was really fun. It was so crowded and so hotttt!! But it was fun. :] There were so many hot guys. Like tons. And most of them were shirtless. Haha. But that is not even half as bad as the girls. Oh my. I was amazed at what some people were wearing, and that they actually felt okay wearing it in public. It was insane. We had fun dancing and stuff though, and just avoided the creepers. :] Which was sometimes quite difficult, but we all managed to make it out alive. :] After the Howl we came back to our apartment, and were just kinda lounging around on the couch, when Tesha came home. Haha it was so funny. She was drunk. She had gone to a party with her older friends, where BJ hangs out and what not, and she had gotten drunk. But oh she was a funny drunk. :] But she brought home a burrito, and was just sitting there entertaining us, and then we all smelled her burrito, and realized how starving we were. So I did what I vowed I never would, and I went to Beto's at three in the morning. But oh my. It was so delicious. :] I guess I can never judge anyone for doing it ever again. Oh well.
