20 things about me

1.) I actually don't mind going to the dentist.
2.) I never wanted to live in Utah for more than a year...Hello year 5!
3.) I am jealous of my sister but we haven't been as close as we are now. I love her and can't picture my life without her.
4.) I hate Utah drivers. On the freeway, people in the middle lane are always trying to get off. People in the fast lane are going slow and people in the slow lane are going at break neck speeds because of the idiots in the other 2 lanes. Psh...they're all idiots.
5.) I love buying new shoes but I hate the actual act of shopping. Something about hordes of idiot shoppers and clueless employees turns me off to the whole idea of "retail therapy". Go figure...
6.) I hated the years proceeding my mothers death. People thought they had to walk on egg shells around me, my family situation was hell, and I didn't want to deal with any of it. So more often than not, I ran away from it all and found myself either in L.A. or on Long Island, NY. Now that I've dealt with it, I'm in Utah of all places.
7.) I hate being the center of attention but hate it even more when people forget about me.
8.) I like the idea of living in a small town but hate the thought of people knowing everything about you. I like my privacy and I must have the option of showing my true colors on my own time without people constantly watching you.
9.) I don't know if I could ever handle being pregnant and bringing home a brand new baby. It scares me.
10.) I love the fall and wish it was cool/cold enough year round so I could wear sweaters and thick wool socks. I want to spend my fall season in New England and every other season in the Pacific Northwest.
11.) I'm a realistic hopeless romantic.
12.) I feel socially awkward more often than not even though I come from a hugely social family. I come off far cooler than I actually feel most of the time.
13.) I don't want to work for the rest of life but I know that if I don't have something to do, I'll get bored.
14.) I really want to get paid to travel and take cool photos of places I've visited. Some day...
15.) I want to be and do a great many things and often feel that time is running out to accomplish them all.
16.) It makes me smile inside when I get a real smile from Bryan.
17.) I like Bryan...crazy I know. I went from liking his older brother last summer to liking him this year.
18.) I think that the people whom you love most can hurt you worse but also be your saving grace more often than they hurt you.
19.) I hate wearing shoes. As much as I love wearing woolly socks during the fall and winter, I absolutely hate wearing shoes. Give me sandals any day!
20.) As much as I like working with people, they irritate the crap out of me more often than not.

It's Okay to Be Sad

I'm sitting in my room nursing a 7-up because I ate too much cheese with my dinner. Being lactose sensitive, edging on completely intolerant, totally sucks. Sometimes dairy doesn't bother my stomach too much, but I guess eating cheese on a completely empty stomach wasn't the greatest idea but damn, that artichoke and spinach cheese dip was delicious. Was it worth it in the end? Meh..I could go either way at the moment. I just had a memory pop up of my first swig of raw cow milk. It was delicious and totally didn't make my stomach hurt. Anyhow, at lot has been swirling around my brain as of late. Here is a bullet list of the swirling mess: When I left UVU a little over 10 years ago, my GPA was a 1.95. When I came back in the fall I had to fill out a satisfactory academic progress (SAP) report thing to 1.) get my financial aid released, and 2.) promise to get a C or better for the remainder of my time at UVU. Well, I barely got a D in sociology 1010 class in the fa...

Mama

Dear Mom, You've been gone 12 years now and I miss you just as much as I did when you left this earth to live with our Heavenly Father. Life has been hard since you've been gone, but I'm sure you know. Yesterday, on your anniversary, I went to lunch with Felisa and visited Stephen and his wife, Shauna in Salt Lake. Who would have thought that almost all us adult siblings would live within an hour's drive of each other? In Utah, no less. We didn't really talk about you, but I'm sure that we were all thinking of you. My heart ached for you a little bit more. I thought of you on Sunday, since it was the day of the week that you passed away. During the Sacrament, I thought of you and everything you taught me about the Gospel, about Jesus, about facing your fears, about forgiveness. When it came to the bearing of testimonies, I was already crying. Half due to allergies and half due to thinking of you and missing you. I was always the sensitive one. Dad's ex-wife ...

Done

I am so happy that I'm done moving! Now comes the almost unwelcome task of unpacking. As it would have it, I've moved into a smaller space and I need to throw out a few things. Maybe, once everything is cleaned up, I'll take pictures. My younger brother, the previous tenant of the space, has left the bathroom a complete mess. Thank goodness for Scrubbing Bubbles and some pretty amazing toilet cleaner. It'll probably take a another day or two to get the shower to the point where I won't be afraid to shower in it. Its pretty nasty I tell you. Anyway, I'm running out of things to write about today. I'm not feelin' it...
