Fall is in the air!

I love warm fall days. They make me happy. Plus, this time change is awesome.

It's been a while since I've last posted. About a month and a half. I guess October was pretty busy for me, but who knows. This month is actually going to be busier because I have a bunch of papers to write. It ought to be fun. :) No, really it will be fun because they should be pretty easy to write. A few of them need research, and I just have to find that motivation to research them and write them, but they'll all get done. Go team! I'm excited to write my paper on Unitarian Universalism. It should be interesting and I'm looking forward to learning more about that religion.

I'm really happy with how life is going. I'm still with Brandon, and I absolutely love every single minute we spend together. This is the part where you think, or even say, gag. It's ok, I don't mind. :) But yeah, we try to make time for each other because we both have busy schedules, and it seems to work out pretty well. We went to the Ute game on Halloween, and that was an experience. It was really entertaining to see people dressed up in costumes. So funny. There was a guy dressed up as Jesus which I found really bizarre. But good for him I guess! There was also a person dressed up as the mom from Hairspray. I can't remember her name...but I hope you know which one I am talking about. It was really funny.

Anyway, I need to go on spontaneous adventure sometime soon. It's time to do something random. As much as I love routine, it needs to be broken once in a while. It's kind of hard right now though, because of school and how there are only 5 more weeks left in the semester...so it may have to wait until December. Or January. We'll see.

For those of you who haven't heard about my Las Vegas experience, let me enlighten you. I absolutely hate Vegas. I couldn't breathe there because the stench was a mixture of smoke, alcohol, perfume, and air fresheners. It's really not a good combination. It's disgusting. But, the concert was fun! And that is the reason why I went. It's always good to see U2 live. :) So, thanks Brandon for letting me experience Vegas for the first time and taking me to U2. :) :) Oh, I did like our hotel too. We stayed at Treasure Island, and it was really pretty. Our room didn't smell like smoke either because we got a non-smoking room. Yay! So, at least that was good.

Well, I bid you farewell blog. Hopefully I'll write more often, but I won't make any promises. Peace. Love. Happiness.

Lazy Day

I think everyone should have a lazy day once in a while. With the stress of life, it's just good to spend a day relaxing and catching up with the world. And I did that today. Yes, there were times where I was thinking, "Wow, I'm so bored."...but thats ok! :) I even got some stuff done. I studied for a test, went to new websites I don't usually go to, and took my sister to soccer practice for my dad. Yep. Oh, and I went to class and took my fifteen minute test. Yeah, that's how long it was. And it was extremely easy. Hooray! I love psychology.

Anywho, I'm worried about my lizard. He's acting very sluggish and I don't know why. :( I hope he's ok.

My computer is going to die. I shall post at a later time. Peace.

School, School, and SCHOOL!

I love college. :) It's really great to be in an atmosphere where people actually WANT to be there. I'm really happy with how my classes are going so far, which automatically makes it wonderful. I'm extremely fond of my Personal Growth and Development class. I think it's going to be great. I feel so peaceful when I attend that class, and then I'm continually peaceful throughout the day.

On another note, I'm trying to get into shape. A couple nights ago I went running at the Taylorsville track with my sister. I almost ran a whole lap without stopping. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it because I was exhausted and it hurt to breathe. This just tells you how out of shape I am despite how "skinny" I am. Therefore, my current goal is to get into shape. I need to ask my sister to write up a work out guide for me. She's pro at that. I swear she's going to be a personal trainer in the future...

So, I haven't attending the writing group meetings for a while. :( Unfortunately, I always have work on Wednesday evenings so I can never go. It's quite sad. I hope I'll be able to go again...but I guess we'll see what happens.

School is next week...

...and I'm so excited! I am so ready to get back in routine and attend classes. I'm even excited for homework. How weird is that? But I'm sure I'll be sick of that within a couple weeks or so. But here are my classes I'm taking for the Fall Semester:

Religious Diversity in America
Personal Growth and Development
Intro to Sociology
Abnormal Psychology

I'm pretty excited for all four of these classes. :) And I also found out a lot of people I know are attending SLCC this semester. It's pretty exciting :) I think this will be a good year.

Summer flew by. So much has happened this summer, and I'm so happy with how things are turning out in my life. I still work at Vanity which I love, I have my amazing boyfriend, and Melissa is back from Oakcrest. :) Things are turning out well. I think I completed my summer goal of reading ten books as well. I'm either going to start book nine or ten in a little while. Unfortunately I lost track of what books I've read. Oh well. I can estimate. :)

Peace. Love. Happiness.

Haagen Daz?

Today has been an excellent day. Work was fantastic and it made me feel great. :) I love working midday shifts. Just the thought that I don't have to close is comforting and allows me to be more motivated. :) I felt like a good salesperson today, and getting 4/5 stats is a confidence booster as well. :) I've been off work for about seven hours, but I still feel awesome. I can get used to this...

...there are probably other reasons why I'm feeling like this as well. After work, I went to see The Proposal with Nick and a few of his college buddies. It was way fun. :) We had ice cream afterwards and talked for a bit. I felt really comfortable with them. It was fun. I'd like to do it again.

Then at around eleven fifteen I had a visit from my cute boyfriend. :) Which was awesome. Like always. :) I'm such a sap. But I don't care. I like feeling this way. If I could, I'd make the whole world feel this way. It's a great feeling.

I also bought my jeans today! When I say 'my jeans', I mean the Vanity Samantha jeans. We really have jeans named Samantha. It's so cool! So I purchased those, as well as a cute shirt. I get to wear them tomorrow for work because Jamie asked me to come in for three hours. I'm ok with that! :) More hours equals more money. And that's always a good thing.

I thought I'd share my happiness with the world tonight. :) At least, the blogging world. I'm stoked for tomorrow as well. Not only for work, but for the writing group meeting I'm going to attend. It'll be swell.

Peace. Love. Happiness.

Money, Money, Money

Man, what a summer it has been so far. Unfortunately, my goals still need to be accomplished. I need to read five or six more books to meet my reading goal this summer. I also didn't accomplish my hiking goal. But it's hard to find the time and money to go to the canyons twice a week. I guess I should have thought this through a little more...

Anyway, despite my goals, this summer has been quite eventful. I'm usually doing something every day, which is good. It keeps me busy and all that jazz. I'm anxious for school to start though. I think it'll be good to get back into routine so I won't sleep in until noon most days.

I've been really worried about money lately. I mean, I have a job, but it's just not enough for me to pay for school and everything else I have to worry about including: speeding ticket, traffic school, gas, and other stuff. Luckily, my parents are going to chip in a bit to help pay for tuition, but still it sucks not having a scholarship. I was also going to apply for FAFSA again, so we'll see if I'll get any adequate funds from the government. I guess I'm really going to be a poor college student this year. That's ok though because I will learn.

Anyway, I gotta go to work now...I'll write some more another day! Peace.

Tacos?

Well, hello Blogosphere! I don't really know who reads this anymore, but that's ok. It's kind of like my way to piece everything going on in my life together. I'm pretty sure I butchered that sentence. Oh well.

Anyway, a lot has happened this past week. I have gone hiking, hung out with friends, and managed to get a boyfriend. Yeah, I'm in a relationship. It's been a while since I've been in an actual relationship. I like it. :) Brandon is a very nice guy and he treats me with respect. He also likes me a lot, so that's a plus. :) And...my family likes him. :) :) I have a feeling I will be happy for a very long time with Brandon. Hooray!

This weekend is the 4th of July. I'm totally stoked for it. :) I have plans for the whole weekend! And both Friday and Saturday night will be filled with good friends and awesome fireworks! :)

Well, I'm not really in the mood to write anymore. Peace. :)
