Nothing Gets Crossed Out

That's pretty much the story of my life. I have all these goals and tasks to do and I never can seem to get them done. The list gets longer and longer. Thank goodness Christmas is almost here, I can't wait! Thanksgiving was fun, I ate way too much BBQ'd turkey and yams, had a great time at Samantha's, and had a nice break. I'm ready for Christmas though, it's weird to think that this is my last holiday season at home. I mean I'll come home for Christmas and stuff but I won't actually be living with my family anymore. I wonder what that'll be like. 

I drove to school today for the first time in like two weeks. It started snowing, and heavily, around then and I do not drive in the snow or ice. Today I finally braved the roads (seeing as they were all pretty much clear and dry) and things were fine. It was my first time driving the new BMW and it seemed to handle great. All that changed when I got into the school parking lot. The thing is covered in ice, like a skating rink. I was so scared, my back end kept sliding around and I had no idea how to put the 4-wheel drive on. It took me forever to park and I was so freaked out. I made it though thank heaven and didn't kill myself or any one around me. 

Speaking of all the ice, it is a terrible, terrible thing. I've already had my first fall of the winter. This happened Saturday when I was up at my aunt Natée's and my uncle Dan's house. Just as my dad and I are leaving, I start walking down their steps and fall flat on my butt. It hurt so friggin bad! I thought I was safe for a while though. I mean get the first slip out of the way and there is no way gravity will be so cruel as to let you fall three days later. Well let me tell you, gravity is a bitch. I was walking to seminary today, minding my own business, and next thing I know I'm on the ground on top of this huge slab of ice. I should sue the school for not properly removing snow and ice. The whole back side of the school and all the portable's are covered. If they expect us to have class out there they need to make it SAFE! Heating the stupid buildings (with more then one little space heater) would be awesome to. 

My jacket smells like fried foods. We went to Chile's tonight after Curt's choir concert. It was pretty tasty, but this huge group next to us had these obnoxious guys that would not shut up. 

I need to figure out what classes to take next semester. I want to try and get my CNA but I need to figure out if I can drop some classes so I can actually take the CNA course. Blah I'm tired and I need to get up at like 5.30 for a seminary morning side.

Weekend Wars

It's been an age since I last posted. I'm now the proud recipient of a 21 on the ACT, sister to a 16 year old brother, owner of a new drawstring bag which I made. Things have been okay, though to tell you the truth I'm absolutely wiped out. I feel like have so much going on, when in reality I really don't. I'm just lazy and my time seems to fly by. 


     Curt has a jazz concert tonight at 7. I'm excited to hear them play, I know Curt has been working really hard. The weather was great today, fairly warm which is great because I'm getting sick of the cold. I think it's a bad sign. seeing as it's only been really cold for maybe two weeks and I'm already looking forward to spring. It's snowed a little bit since I last posted but never enough for it to stick to the ground for very long. It's melted by the next day. 


     I kinda want to go see New Moon. I vowed that I wouldn't get too excited about it but I can't help it. I'm excited and I refuse to feel ashamed. I wish I had tickets for tomorrow, but I'll probably have to wait a while to see it. Ah C'est la vie.


     MMMM. I smell pizza!

1 MORE DAY TILL CHRISTMAS

Shock of all shocks! I'm posting again!

I didn't think I would have much time to sit down to my computer and write but as it turns out I'm just at home with my brother and grandpa and there's really nothing to do so I thought I'd write.

My Aunt and Uncle and their 3 kids spent the night last night so my Aunt and Uncle slept in my bed which meant I had to sleep in the living room. Then my cousins took my brothers room so he slept out  on the couch. My Grandparents are also staying here for Christmas so they're sleeping in my dads bed. He went to go sleep  on the couch in his office which he says is commfy enough. 

We didn't get to bed till 2 last night because everyone was just having a good time talking and goofing around, but unfortunately the kids all decided to wake up and the ungodly hour of 8 a.m. thus forcing me awake. 6 hours of fitful sleep is not enough for this chica so I went back into my room at about 9 and fell asleep till 11. It was nice and I would have slept longer but I've got to go to the store and buy my brothers Christmas present. I know I'm insane to go shopping the day before Christmas eve but I couldn't get what I wanted for him yesterday.

Speaking of yesterday, ugh I spent all day shopping for my dad. Most of that at Wal-Mart and let me tell you I hate that store. It's just too big and the one by my house just remodeled and now I can't find anything to save my life. I was looking for stuff for my dad and I couldn't find anything, I was about to have a mental break down, it was not pretty. Thank goodness Kim was there to help me find stuff.

Well it's been lots of fun having my family around for Christmas, it's so nice to see them all again. Maybe I'll post some pictures up tomorrow

OH and we have tons of SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
