Never enough time

Why does everything go so fast?

I wish things would slow down. Just a little bit. I feel like my life keeps going in fast motion.

Things keep changing. So many of my friends are getting their mission calls and leaving for two years. It's going to be so weird for the first few months. It's almost depressing in a way. I mean, I'm totally happy for them and they're doing something they want to do, but seriously two years is such a long time. Everything changes in two years. And I mean everything.

By the time most of my friends come back I'll be working on my Bachelor's degree. It's a very weird concept to think about. Where will I be in two years? Out of state? Still living at home? Going to the U? Engaged (unlikely, but still)? Traveling the world (again, unlikely)? Alone? It's really hard thinking about this kind of thing. I guess I'll do what I always do: go with the motions.

So, I'm pretty sure I will have no homework over spring break. :) This is good news. This means I can focus all my time and attention on work and random adventures I go on. I'm totally cool with that. Wouldn't you be?

I wish I had money to buy every color and design avaliable for chucks. That would be freaking sweet. I'd seriously wear them all depending on what day it is and if it'd match my outfit. :) Wow. Now I'm intrigued. Maybe I will do that someday.

Allred's new rerelease cd comes out in April. I'm planning on being there.

I don't really have much to say today. So. Bye.

Concerts

As you all should know, I love concerts. All kinds really.

Currently, I'm stoked for the concert I'm going to on March 24. Every Avenue w/Cute is what we aim for. And some other bands. :) I'm so excited!!! oh my gosh!!!

I also would like to go to the Fall out Boy and Metro Station concert at the Saltair venue. I think that concert would be amazing. We'll see if I end up going. I am willing to go. :)

I just finished writing chapter 5 for my Human Growth and Development class. I think it turned out well. :) If you don't already know, I have to write a short biography for the growth of a child throughout the semester. In the beginning, my teacher gave us a scenario a child was born into. And through all the stages of development, we have to write a chapter using concepts from the chapters in our textbook to see how the child's development is coming along. For each paper, our teacher will give us wild cards (which are certain experiences the child deals with during its growth). The wild cards can be normal or difficult for the child. It's pretty fun to write about how someone is developing.

I slept in today which means I didn't go to Anatomy. I needed to catch up on sleep, so I decided to skip that class today. I'm sure I didn't miss much.

Badminton sucked today. :( My back has been hurting, so it was hard to play. I am out of the tournament because I lost twice. I'm ok with it. I wasn't up for playing today because I was in pain. Maybe on Thursday my teacher will teach me some cool techniques. :) And we'll hope my back is better by then.

My sister has a scrimmage soccer game tonight. I wonder if they'll even be playing because of the snow. I won't be able to go anyway, but I still wonder. :)

And that is my kitty. :) I love her.

I'm going to make this a habit

Wow! Look at me go.

I'm going to start playing again. I think it'll be good for me. I miss playing the clarinet. When I have a free afternoon, I am going to get some music. I'm pretty excited and I hope I stick with it. Who knows, maybe I'll even get better. :)

I'm going to Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Ohio in May. All in the same week. It's going to be quite the adventure. I'm going with Melissa and her family to visit their dad. He lives in Wisconsin so we'll hang out at his place for a while, then for a day we're going to the Mall of America. :) You know me and malls..we're tight. And the Mall of America is supposed to be huge. After Mall of America (well, after we go back to Melissa's dad's house to sleep), we'll be traveling to Ohio to go to Cedar Point Amusement Park. Pretty much stoked for that. Huge rollercoasters, overpriced food, and screaming people. Sigh. Gotta love amusement parks. Since it's like seven hours away from his house, we'll be staying in a hotel for a couple nights.

Btw, I already bought my plane ticket. :)

Spring break is next week. I don't really have any plans other than working, but I'm sure stuff/fun adventures will come up. Something enjoyable always happens for me these days. Most of it is spontaneous. I like spontaneous. :)

I've been listening to the new U2 album No Line on the Horizon. It's very different from their other stuff. I like it. It's new, fresh, and exciting.

I want to cuddle. By this lake.

2 posts in one night? Weird...

So, maybe if I keep writing in my blog, I won't neglect it so much. This is my current theory.

I just remembered I get my Stats test back tomorrow. Oh no. I'm scared.

I like my name. It rolls off the tongue quite well. :)

I really should be asleep. And yet here I am writing complete nonsense on a blog I hardly ever check. Eh, I must have gotten my second wind.

My room is cozy. I like small rooms.

I miss high school football games...

Last post: December
Current post: March

Ok, glad we got that settled. It's been a while. Lots has happened. I mean, lots. But we won't talk about the past because I mean, who does that?

Let's talk about the current days of Samantha Brooke Perez.

I still go to SLCC. I still work at Vanity. I still have homework. That aspect hasn't changed much. :)

I love boys. Nuff said. Things are looking up in my personal life. I like to go on date adventures. Good times. :) I recommend that everyone should go on a date lasting nine hours. Just do it. Have fun. :)

So...I have a new room. Nick, Jaron, and Rachel came over to help assemble the dresser, nightstand, and bed. My dad did most of it. We got distracted because we were watching Flight of the Conchords. Good show. I think everyone should at least watch one episode. Or listen to the awesome songs. Either way, they could possibly make your day that much brighter. :)

This weekend has been quite the adventure. Actually, life has been quite the adventure.

I want to go hiking. Like, really bad. Too bad the snow isn't melted yet.

Updatedness

Wow. My last post was a poem. And I liked that poem. Good times.

Anyway, so much has happened within a few months. School is almost over for the semester, which is definitely a good thing. I'm ready for a break before the spring semester begins. I just need to get through this week, and my two finals next week, and it'll be good. Then I'll be working a ton to earn money for Christmas! :) I'm excited about that. Worrying only about work and Christmas stuff for a month sounds pretty dang good to me.

I've been reading some people's blogs...and they're really depressing. I mean, I wish I could help these people out but there is only so much I can do. I can always say the generic "You're going to be ok!" and whatnot, but it's not sincere at all. I feel bad because I'm relatively happy right now. My life is going great. I couldn't ask for more. I'm meeting new people, I love my job, and I enjoy school despite the constant stress. Of course I fight with my family, but who doesn't? And then I read blogs that are somewhat sad and it gets me thinking: It's hard living in this world. Living is hard. Making money is hard. Good thing there is love in this life or else we'd all be dead zombies with no heart. I wish I knew how these people feel. Perhaps I have before but just forgot...

Anyway, I went to St. George over Thanksgiving break. I didn't get the traditional turkey dinner this year, but hopefully my parents decide on making one this weekend. We'll see. I went to St. George for my sister's soccer tournament. It was a pretty good trip. I was upset the first night because I couldn't sleep. It wasn't very fun. I wanted to go home and I felt like a burden to my family. But after that night, things started to get better. My sister's team got second place in the tournament. I was proud of her team. I love watching them play!

Well, I better wrap this up so I can go eat something before I head to work. Have a good day everyone!
