Unmotivated

Midnight is approaching far too quickly for me. I should be in bed...you know, practicing the whole "early to bed early to rise" adage. But nope...I am pretty much at the point of rebellion and am putting off retraining myself before school starts. I still can't believe I signed up for classes that start before 10am. Oh well, this fall semester I will be getting out of class before 1pm on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and on Tuesday and Thursday, I'm out before 11:30am. How marvelous it feels to be done with my face to face contact with my soon-to-be-determined-if-they're-boring teachers at a decent hour! (Which reminds me, I need to check what books I need for the fall...this could be a disastrous way to end a perfectly good day.)

Bah. I just completed a Sexual Harassment training for UVU. Oh yeah. I forgot to say that I have a temporary job working in the UVU Bookstore for Fall Book Rush. My chances of staying on may be a little slim. From what my trainer said today, they only kept 2 people from Spring Book Rush and 5 from last fall's Book Rush. There were probably about 50 people there for cashier positions and 30 people for floor positions. So my chances are looking slim. I'm just glad that I'll be able to make a little money for school. Plus, I get a discount. So I'll be buying my UVU sweatshirt and sweat pants before the 2 weeks of Book Rush are up.

...I guess the looking up of books will have to wait till another day.

Oy...I have a headache and its late. I need to sleep. Maybe I'll be motivated and wake up at a decent time tomorrow. :]

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...

Reasons

So, you remember from the last post when I said things were "a-changin'"? Well, they are. I'm moving to Hillsboro, Oregon. ETA: November 1st, but probably November 4th so I can at least finish the pay period instead of leaving in the middle of it. Anyway, here's a quick list of things I bet you didn't know about Hillsboro: *It's near the ghost town of Idiotville, Oregon. Real place. Wiki or google it. *What Draper, Utah is to SLC is exactly what Hillsboro is unto Portland. Almost the same place. *Has AMAZING parks and waterfalls. *All voting is done by mail. Secretly, I'm a little bummed about not getting a "I voted" sticker. Okay, so I could only really think of 4 things that you might not have known about Hillsboro or the surrounding area. Oregon as a state though, is pretty dang fantastic. I'll finally be able to partake in the Goonie-for-the-day festivities in Astoria. While there are many reasons why I'm moving away, the main rea...

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 ...
