It's time.

In the words of my sister Michelle, "It's time to be a grown up" and get my wisdom teeth out. I went to the dentist today for a cleaning and at the end they told me that it would be best if I got my wisdom teeth out since my mom is having some rough times with hers. I really don't want to, but I've gotta do it eventually. Barf.

By the way, this is the first picture that comes up when you google image wisdom teeth. Haha! I think it's hilarious.

Water.

It's 2:17 in the morning.
I should probably be in bed right now.
But there's one problem.
Almost everything that I own is on my bed.
Preventing me to sleep in it.
Also, the man in there vacuuming doesn't help.
That's right.
It happened again.
Our basement flooded.
And a ton of the water went right into my room.
So.
There is a man here sucking up all the water.
And another one trying to unclog our main line.
In the meantime.
I get to stay up in case they need me.
I can't complain though.
Nothing of mine was ruined.
I'll get to sleep eventually.
My management was SUPER quick about getting someone out here.
And they are really helpful.
We have amazing Christmas lights on our house.
Things are going well with school.
My grades this semester are better than ever before.
I have great friends who are so willing to help.
I have an amazing family who loves me.
So.
You know what crappy old house basement flood?
You can't beat me.

Thanksgiving 2009

This Thanksgiving I wanted to give a special shout out to my wonderful family. They are an amazing family and I couldn't be happier. I made this video to tell them the reasons why I am thankful for them. Enjoy.

Foul Odors

So, this semester, among other buildings, I work in the Talmage building as a tech support person. For some reason this building smells something FIERCE! I'm not saying the people in the building smell bad, just the building. I walk into that building and it's super humid and it smells like death. I don't know why. Just an observation.

My First Quilt!

With A LOT of help from my mom, I finished my first quilt! I used all of my old t-shirts from high school. I wanted some way to keep them and carrying them around in a bag or something would be just weird, so this was a perfect way to preserve my memories! My mom helped me figure out the layout and helped me cut them into squares. Then I had to iron each square on to some interfacing thing to make it not so floppy. Then I sewed it all together. Then my mom embroidered "Lone Peak Knights" and "Class of 2007." Then I pinned the back to the batting and the top, then my mom used her handy machine and quilted these cute swirly things on it. I love it! It's so comfy and so fun to have. I can't wait to start my college t-shirt quilt! Here it is!



And here is the sweet embroidery job my momma did:

100% Attendance... so far.

School has been in session for 28 days so far, and I have been to every SINGLE class. This is a big deal for me. I usually skip a few classes within the first week of school. I am hoping to have 100% attendance this semester. It's gonna be rough. But, I think I can do it.

Also, I cut 5 inches off my hair. It's still long, but not crazy long like it used to be. I like it though. Here is a picture I took in my office today on my computer. Enjoy.

Indecent Proposal

There I was, Monday afternoon walking across campus.
I was at work, and I had just finished moving a projector in the Talmage building.
I race out of the unbelievably bad smelling building and make my way towards the HFAC.
I'm walking fast, my hair blowing in the wind, my little feet shuffling.
When all of the sudden I'm stopped.
"Can I ask you a question?"
This isn't unusual to be stopped while walking across campus, so I comply.
Then, all of the sudden the stranger is down on one knee.
"Will you marry me?"
He holds out a sparkling ring.
Why in the heck are you doing this?
I ask in my mind, then I tell a simple lie:
"Sorry, I'm taken."
