I Dislike...

*commercials on Pandora after every 3 songs.
*the fact that you can't actually watch the last 5 episodes of Glee on Hulu without
paying for something that should be free.
*free trials that aren't actually free.
*free anything that has a nasty terms & conditions string tied firmly to
it's ugly terms & conditions clause that you can't actually read
because the font is soooooo small!
*fake people
*snobs
* judgmental snobby fake people


Things I DO Like

*new work friends who confirm those sneaky suspicions about the people who were
supposed to be your work friends.
*people at work who don't get caught up in the drama and who like you more than
those supposed work friends.
*Cello, viola, and piano music. I love those rich resonate sounds of the cello and viola.
And if I were an instrument and instruments were people, I'd date a piano.
weird metaphor? yes, yes it is.
*A job coach who tries motivate you.
*People who inspire me:
Brother Corey Sackett
Sister Colleen Terry
*Summer fruit
*Fall
*Adventures
*A best friend who is always on my side but tells me to stop whining
when I need it.
*Summer thunder storms
*Books. Literature of most any genera.
*Sheet music
*Excellent films



I felt that I should end on a positive note, you know? I didn't want to end my day by being
a total Debbie Downer. I just needed to get some things out of my system without being
overly specific about any of it. I guess it's specific enough, though.

Anyhow...

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? ...
