So I kinda forgot about this thing altogether. I decided it's definitely going to take some one on one alone time for me to really develop feelings for this blog... once we're past the hump of getting to know each other though this thing will take off and I can see Beautiful things coming from the two of us. People have been begggging me to do another post (my last one must have been a zinger) so here I be. Ok, begging might be pushing it but someone did just say the other day, "hey, don't you have a blog?" And(flattered) I said why, yes I do!- which they replied "oh, cool". I know they meant to say- please, please do another post, we all want to hear more about your fascinating life! So, for that person's sake, and whoever else I expected them to be implying- i'm Back!
I was just thinking the other day about all the internet fads i've given into over the years-AOL(back in the day of jking wit ur grls) Myspace (the days of full extended, above the head camera placement for those who thought that would make them look "hotter" for lack of a more appropriate word. Did I do this you ask? Psh... gah...wha.. who do you think I am? Psh- Back to more important matters. Then came life changing Facebook which occupied much of my time, thoughts, and study hours. I am confidently announcing however, that I've been introduced to an even more entertaining social network! If you have yet to join in, I promise you won’t be disappointed. Trying to convince people of this is hard. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard the line “isn’t it just status updates” NO! My friends- I introduce to you TWITTER! It’s a beautiful thing. It’s like trying on those pair of pants that feel like they were made specifically for you. Well instead of fitting my butt just right, twitter fits my way of thinking just right-it gives me currrves. There are so many great features of it and I challenge you to give it a try. I will say though that you can’t just dabble in it—I tried that and if you don’t jump in full force you’ll never get the full effect of it. Try it- I dare you;)

I know I promised not to make these posts too long but I have so much else to say! I’ll try to sum it up in a turtle shell (turtle because their shells are bigger than nuts and I don’t think everything I have to say would quite fit in the nut shell- definitely a turtle’s though). In short, life has been crazy- being the annoyingly motivated person I am I decided to take a chemistry class this summer that has haunted me for the past 8 weeks. Here’s an equation for you: Bad teacher+shortened class time+prenursing girls= a lot of drama, a lot of stress and a lot of swearing. However, I am happy to announce that I’m pretty positive I’ll get an A in the class, if not then for sure an A-! See maw I am a big girl now!
Besides that, life has been great. I like summer because everyone’s always in such a good mood. In the winter I’m still in a good mood cuz I love the POW but there’s only about 45 percent of people who share that love with me. 100 percent of people love the sun so life is just good right now!
Highlights so far:
-Excellent outdoor concerts- one by the Vibrant Sound, Book on Tapeworm farewell concert for a few months, one by my friend Travis Van Hoff
-Some quality kickball
-Beautiful runs on Provo’s mountainsides
-Pool hangin’ with music, occasional penguin masks and friends.
-Occasional skype sessions, phone calls, and anything else that makes time go by faster
-Switching from cow milk to almond milk (laugh if you must, giggle or judge but this is Big for me!)
Yup, that's just about my life right now. Life will get more fun now that i'm outta that dang class. I start my job tomorrow as a CNA so i'll keep you posted on that- i'm stoked for it. And I just booked my flight home for the fourth so I can't wait hiking, fireworks and cookouts here I come!! I do wish somehow that we could make a little pit stop in Tulsa somehow but I don't think the pilots would go for that- those jerks.
