oh boy...

It's been 2 months since I last posted or read anything blog related. It's kind of overwhelming to see how many blogs I have to catch up on. And forget about Facebook. I had almost 100 game requests and after about 2 seconds of accepting requests, I got overwhelmed by the sheer volume. I can't say that I've missed playing those stupid games, so maybe it's time to cut myself off and ban myself from playing those Sim based games for the next forever.

Anyway, in the past 2 months, I've moved. I've applied for jobs. I've consistently cleaned my bathroom every week. I've met people. Including a very cute cowboy from Idaho. I've also found myself in charge of driving my dad to Malad City, Idaho and picking him up in Logan, Utah every other week when he works in the natural gas fields in Wyoming. That's how I met the Idaho Cowboy. He's my dad's ride to Wyoming.

Other than that, I haven't been doing a whole lot. Just a lot of walking around Ogden. I finally got a library card and since I don't have internet at home, the library has become my best friend. However, this is the first time I've gotten on the internet, on a real computer, in almost 2 months! I've been checking my email and Facebook on my phone, but somehow, having a real life keyboard where I can use all ten fingers to type instead of my thumbs is somehow more gratifying to me this time around. Weird, right?

I've also come to the conclusion that the people of Ogden, the ones who are the library the same time as I am, are weird. I mean, if I were in Utah County at any given library, people wouldn't be looking my screen to see what I was doing. Or just looking me, period. Makes me a little uncomfortable. Or maybe it's just my peripheral vision that's wiggin' me out. idk.

I digress.

So, there isn't much to update my blog about. My life has come to a sudden halt and I find myself increasingly bored and so I clean. Or watch old reruns of the Andy Griffth Show. The Year of Expression is coming along. I've been cooking a lot as well. Writing a lot in my journal and reading a lot about famous people. Well, mostly about famous photographers. I find myself drawn to the nature photographer as well as the social photographer. Social photographer = something you'd find in National Geographic. At least the people pictures. Like little African kids or little Asian kids. The nature and people photographs intrigue me. Mostly the people photos.

Anyway, I'm starting to babble and my time is running out. Although, the computer has automatically reset itself for 5 minutes more about three times already.

okay. I guess it's time to get back to real life and do my laundry.

my life is so. exciting. : /

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? ...
