I tried to be chill, but you're so hot that I melted...

Man...I have an hour to fill before Letterman is on tonight. That's probably the one thing that I miss about not getting any channels at my place. Late night television. Ok, well mostly the news and Letterman. Haha...can you tell my age? I miss the news enough to mention it in my blog. Gosh, how boring am I?

So, I am a little peeved that my ward is a little anti-social these days. Ok, maybe I noticed it before, but was probably in denial. Now, that I don't hang out with the same group anymore, I see that people have a rough time going out of their way to fellowship the new and old of the ward. There is a definite clique in the ward and honestly, they're all a little old to even act this way. My roommate, Laura, called the Relief Society President yesterday to see if she still had tickets to the General Relief Society Broadcast for Saturday. She never called my roommate back. If anyone from church called me, regardless of whether or not it was business, I'd call them back. I'd expect more of people with leadership callings, such as the Relief Society President, to call people back in a timely manner. It rubs me the wrong way when someone who has that kind of leadership is anti-social and basically shuns new people. Don't get me wrong, I love my Relief Society President. She's a great person. But really? Regardless of whether or not you're the President or the visiting teacher, you should at least say hi to the new people at least once before the month goes by. I don't know...I just feel a tad let down by the President. She is normally on top of things. Lately though, she pretty much ignores most people. Laura does have a pretty big personality and can come off as a I-don't-care-what-you-think-of-me kind of girl. But in spite of that, she's just like everybody else. I almost suspect that Lynn, the RS president, is a tad intimidated by Laura. Which she shouldn't if Lynn actually got to know Laura...which you can't do if you don't talk to the new people. Vicious cycle I tell ya.

Anyway, I needed to get that out of my system.

Um...yeah...

I wish I had something more exciting to blog about. If I waited for that to happen, I'd probably never blog at all. Uh...my dad might be coming down this weekend. Don't know yet. If he does, it usually means I get a free meal and an interrogation session. Bleh...

Well, I am officially out of things to blog about. Oh wait! My roommate, Laura, got hit by a car yesterday while riding my other roommate's bike. Part of her upper thigh and arm are bruised and I think that the bruising is only going to get worse from here on out. Oh and she's limping. Definitely not good.

Ok...I'm out.

Late...As Usual

So, turns out that I'm not so great at posting on here as I once was. I was even late to post my once yearly Dear Mom post. I really have no excuses other than I've been out of school for almost 3 weeks now since I started going full-time in January. I'm pretty sure the last time I posted anything was in October of last year. Anyway, let's play catch up! I started school full-time in January at BYU-Idaho's online program. I completed 28 credits this year. I'm ready for a break. The accreditation for the public health degree program changed but the changes only apply for the on-campus students and not the online students - aka me. So I'm going to have to transfer schools...again. I've been looking at grad programs in Portland, Oregon. Portland calls my name at least once a year, and I always research reasons to move back. The first time I moved there I was under prepared. I moved with the wrong person. When I move back, I'll be done with school...

A Healthy Start

So, you know when the beginning of the new year rolls around and you recommit yourself to begin a healthier lifestyle and then you kind of crash and burn somewhere around the end of the month? Yeah...I've been there. Like every year of my my twenties. For some reason, the closer I get to turning 32 - yikes! when did that happen??? - the more I think about where I want my life to go, what I want to do, who I want to be...you get the point. Almost a week ago, I started exercising every day with just one rest day a week. Today - Saturday - is my rest day. It also is my sugar day. Anyhow, last Sunday I was sitting in my room perusing Pinterest. I was coming off a graveyard shift sleep the daylight hours away stint and I was bored. I said to myself, "You should do something healthy today. You've slept all day and have energy to burn." Somehow I ended up on this wall exercise chart thing on a friend's board and I thought, I can do this. It's quiet. I won't wake...

New Things

So, I haven't made a public announcement, but I got a job T H R E E weeks ago. I've been gainfully employed for just over 3 weeks ago. I love working. I love having a job. I love being able to buy the stupid things like toothpaste and shampoo, because really? Since I can buy the stupid silly things that people need to function, means that I can start saving, pay tithing, go grocery shopping. Also, since I work for a certain Church funded company, I also get to go to school. For free. Then, after I'm done doing the program that I've been interested in, since forever, I get to go to Weber and finish my bachelor's degree the debt free way. Awesome, right? It is. It's also a lot of work because since the Church is all about self-reliance and what not, I have to do the work all myself which means that I have to find the motivation to go to 2 night classes a week to get to the point where I can finish my bachelor's without going into more debt. But you know what? ...
