Funny Thing About College

Yeah, The funny thing about college is... I hate it. I can't pinpoint one specific thing about college that I hate, it's really just the whole thing in general. I can't decide if it's just that I stayed here in Vegas or if it's just CSN in general. All I know is every time I walk into my English class I want to punch my teacher in the face and that every speech I hear in Communications makes me care less and less for the people around me. Maybe it's just because the people at CSN are idiots that give speeches about how to make whiskey and I have to read papers about how ghetto someone thinks they are and how many times they've been to jail. I could possibly be hating how I'm paying for a math class that doesn't count toward any Major at all but is required for me to move on, and the teacher teaches for thirty minutes and I leave feeling as tough I'm still paying for another hour while not learning anything.
Something is wrong with this whole college experience. Hopefully I can think positively from here on and not get caught up in how bored I am and how I'm wasting my time.

Haven't been home all day!

Today was a busy day indeed. I left for work at 8:30 and I got home at ten, just to leave again for an hour and a half before coming home!

I ate the most delicious cookie in the world today. Made by a lady in my war and after work I went straight to her house ate my weight in stuffed cookies! (Figuratively) But the stuffed cookie part was NOT a hyperbole. That part was real. And I ate chocolate cookies stuffed with caramel, peanut butter, and peppermint while that sweet sister was perfecting recipes. It was awesome. This is her sign.

It's so cute! And they are DElicious!

After eating like fifty cookies I went and babysat today. And two of the three kids were sick, so I wouldn't be surprised if I wake up tomorrow with the flu. But hey, I was babysitting for my boss, and saying no just wasn't an option.

Birthday. So, Some birthday stuff going on last week. Last Friday to be exact.

It was my birthday and we did some pretty exciting things. Mainly we went to see Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian. And it was a-MAZ-ing! I seriously enjoyed every second of it! We also went to Olive garden and my Dad and I had a contest on who could eat more endless pasta bowl.... He won.

Here's a picture of Jackie and I after the show.

I did get a surprise at work on my birthday that was pretty exciting! Flowers!

Yes flowers from Caleb Owens. He had his Mom get them, and he made sure that she got white roses because they're my favorite. How awesome of him to remember

So as you can see. Life is going going on. And maybe I'll get around to writing more on my blog now that I have no social life.

Lunch Time

It's my lunch hour here at work, and as I can't make any calls until about 1:30 when I know that other offices will be back from lunch, I thought I'd take this time to write a post. Here's an update on what's going down lately.


I work every day, and actually got in trouble on Monday for working too much. I worked too many hours and was violating labor laws because I'm only a part time emplyee... Somehow even thought I work 7 hours a day! I actually got in trouble on Monday for working too much! I guess I was violating Labor laws!

School Starts on the 29th! And then I'll be juggleing School and work together! But I've set it up so I'm taking some night classes, and I really only have one hard class (Biology) everything else should be a peice of cake! I got my Biology class! If I didn't get this class I would have sadly been a whole semester behind on my Dental hygiene goal, and luckily I got in, and am very pleased with that!

So that Kid Caleb, Yeah, I'm still you know, writing him, waiting for him, whatever you want to call it. And all is well, so Now I'm going to go and finish work, Have a good day everyone.

New Job

It is true, I now have a new job! At Hutchison and Steffen Attorney's, and it rocks! Of course, my duties are copying... I do a lot of that, about half my time is that actually, and then rest of the time, I'm staring at a computer screen and printing out even more papers! But it's awesome, really! I'm a paralegal's assistant, and I have my own desk that I will decorate any way I want, and my boss is the second counselor in my ward. He's a really nice boss, and I'm glad I get to work with him, even if he is totally crazy. The other day he said his mutant powers would be "Awesomeness and Sex appeal." So weird. But funny. And, I get to sit on a rolly chair when I'm not making copies, and wear fancy clothes, AND they have free donuts and bagels on Fridays, I think this job was meant for me.
Also another sign that my childhood is over, I got a calling this last week! I am the liaison between the young women's, primary, and the Relief society. So, there we go, a real calling, set apart and everything.

DFTBA

Don't forget to be awesome.
