Couches and Jobs


I am not too happy with Weber State right now. In fact, I am a bit pissed. Is that a little over the top? Yes. Is it a bit irrational? Definately. Still though, I am not the happiest camper with these Wildcats.

So I came in early with Ashlee because she had to take a math test. Perfect opportunity for me to sell my textbooks. So I asked if I could hitch a ride with her, sell my books, then wait for her in the Land of Couches. Sounds like a plan. I can get money, rest in a comfortable spot, then pay for lunch today. All is well, right?


Wrong.

Oh, so very wrong.


So I am hiking around on campus with my little red backpack resting on my butt, going to the book store with my nutrition bible and a geography book. I go into the bookstore only to be entertained by the employee telling some lame story about some lame song and lame boy. I am definately invisible to her. Not the best worker skills.

Finally, the guy she is telling the story to askes me what I need help with. I tell him I would like to sell my books. She gives me this look like "Oh, you are stupid, you freshman, you," and tells me that they won't buy books today.

What

The

Crap.

I am hoping she is a kind soul and will sympathise enough with me to take my books. Oh no, she will not. She is just looking at me still like I am an idiot. So I had to hike my books to the upper level of the store, which led me to my cousin Jessica. At least she would listen to me whine. She was even kind enough to hold my books for me so I don't have to carry them around. What a kind, kind soul. I really do appreciate that. Love is all around because of that.


Enough about me whining. So, here is the big news for all. I got the nanny job! I found out a week ago and I will be moving out on January fourth. Am I excited? Definately. Nervous. Of course. It will be so good though. I already love the family. I just can't wait.


I will be using this blog to capture all the exciting moments of the next eighteen months of my life so all can see. It is just my little mission. So I hope ya'll will come and see what exciting things are in store for me. Love you all and wish you the best.


Sincere Love.

scooters, vacation, fall

I am starting a blog. Did I think that I would start one? Sure did. I just have a lot of thoughts piling in my mind. Also, through hopeful recent events, this will be a great way for me to be in contact with people and update them of my life. Hopefully ya'll will find it interesting enough to still keep in touch with me.
So Thanksgiving is coming full force this week. I don't really understand why so many people don't like this holiday. It is really one of my favorites. Who wouldn't want to spend time with food, family, and fun? Well, I sure want to. I love getting together with my family. It really brings life into perspective whenever I see them. They are what life is about. I am just so excited to see them, to see our paths cross once again.
David proposed to Emily on Saturday. I have a new sister. Family once again. It keeps on growing and growing. You can look at family just being the immediate, but even from there, it grows to touch every person out there. We are all connected through the thin lines of family.

You teach them, you learn from them.
You love them.
You may even hate them.
But they will always be your family.

I am just so grateful for what I have been blessed with, with my special family. They mean the world to me and I can feel their love at any time of the day. It makes me even more excited that Ang, Dave/Emily, and I will all be in New York together. I love my siblings so much. I don't think they will ever understand what they mean to me. Yes, we have had our hard times, but we are growing closer. Ang is my best friend. She is the greatest sister on this earth. She is smart, hilarious, kind, endearing, and amazingly beautiful. And I get to call her my sister. Dave and I are learning to love each other, but it is working well so far. He is so funny, kind when he wants to be, and smart. He is a great brother. I never really give him the credit he deserves.
I bite my nails too much.
So family is good.
Never forget that.

Love ya'll.
