Roommates!

So it's kind of funny but people are always asking me what I do at the Library, since I kind of work there now. And when I tell them I can tell that they're thinking 'that sounds boring', so it's kind of funny that I like working there and all. But it's totally the type of job that organized people like, since it's all about being organized. :) It's not a bad job at all, although I don't know as I'd go do graduate school in related to it. Since I've about decided that sometimes it's more about being experienced in something that helps you in the work force.




But don't worry I don't have to boring of a life, since when you have roommates it's not that boring. So these are some of my roommates: Melanie is in the middle, Megan is the one in the right hand bottom corner with the big eyes, Sarah is behind me and Amanda is the one by her with the glasses. (she was a fall roommate) :) (well that's the bottom left pic that I'm referring too)

This all of us in a serious pose! :)




When I first moved into this apartment there were boy friends involved with roommates and such, so we weren't that tight. But we decided to make a fort one night towards the end of the summer and so it's been more fun now since all the boy friends disappeared. Now though there are boy friends around, but we're better at being tight. (so it's good) Oh but how do you like the name of the fort? (the fent)



Having fun with our lovely fent!! L to R: (back) Me, Sarah and Heather  Front L to R: Megan and Melanie

So interesting fact is that these were summer roommates, although Angela had gotten married by then and moved. But Heather, Sarah and Megan are sisters, although Heather and Megan are the only two who look alike of the three. :) Melanie is the one who works at DI and she told me that she mainly applied there since I got a job there. (so good thing I went back to DI right?)



This is Angela whose with me in this picture and she's the one that I had met like in 2008. She had a twin sister and they'd always been roommates, but her sister graduated and moved. So we decided to be roommates, but by the time we got together she was engaged. :( So we were only roommates during the summer was all.




This was just a random time after an FHE were we went to Charlies and got ice cream. They were attempting to do this thing where they randomly got odd mixes of ice cream. But for the most part they turned out fairly normal, since I think mine was like Cherry and Raspberry.



I guess if you've looked at my pictures on facebook then you should have already seen these, but I figured they'd be good to keep on a blog. (you know kind of like a Journal) Although you might all like it if you had forgotten the pictures since they were put on facebook like a year ago. :)



Interesting fact is that Sarah's hair is not dark, it's actually pretty blonde but she randomly dyed it.

So anyways that was fun, in fact maybe I should put lots of facebook pictures on here and tell many funny stories. :)

Facebook Vacation!

So I kind of stopped blogging since it seemed like I never had very interesting blog posts. And I never had any interesting pictures to put on my blog, since I'm single and have no kid pictures/married pictures to post. But in the last year I've been doing facebook way to much and just realized that blogging is actually the more simplified way of life. It's the people your really friends with who actually look at your blog and your not friends with 600 people. (when the majority are more of fake friends then real friends)

So I decided to go on a facebook vacation and there are some others as well who are doing the same thing. So like with doing a sugar diet you've got to still eat sugar a tiny bit, because if you completely stop then you have problems when you start eating it again. Similar things happen with facebook, since last year I tried to do a facebook vacation. But then I started getting really addicted to it when I started using it again, so this time I still go onto facebook. (only once a week though) It's actually been really, really nice not being super attached to facebook and causes me to have more time for walking, e-mailing my real friends) watching better stuff on-line and etc. It's quite great with the having more time to go walking part, considering it's been great weather lately. :) (since it's March and all)

I know a bunch of others have told me that they're not really happy with facebook these days either. So I have a new idea, which is that every week, or whenever it happens, we should share on our blogs things we've found that are awesome. (through other sources outside of facebook) Then we can share these things on our blogs and we can all get new ideas of what can help us to be more happy through non facebook sources. :) So what do you think? Are you all going to join me on this? I actually have found something recently that is really cool, it's actually a song I was introduced to a few months ago. Then I went and found it on youtube, but it's called blessings and here it is:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CSVqHcdhXQ

I like the end of this song where it says that sometimes the trials of this life are mercies in disguise. So as I'm sure everyone knows I find it a huge trial that I never date and that I'm single. (and 30) But I think it's more of a being in Utah thing, you know everyone's married by 25 generally. (and most definately by 30) So I don't know why it would really be a blessing, but I guess that in 20 years I'll figure it out. Haha!

Oh and then I found the story that goes with this song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDiTuSLSJB8

So with her story I like how she says that we are generally given what we 'need', not usually what we want. So for some very odd reason I'm suppose to be on the single list in Utah, very odd but you never know there is probably a good reason for it. I'm pretty sure that most of you out there have some sort of problem, so you should all like this song. :)

The last year of life!

So I realized that I haven't written on this blog in over a year, which is kind of wierd but goes to show that facebook has taken over the world.

Well it turns out that Angela and I moved over to this house at the bottom of old main and were roommates during the summer. But she got engaged on finals week and so her fiancee was around all summer, he was nice so it wasn't bad. As it turned out the person you all know that's in my ward totally just hangs out and we're not even really friends anymore. (so that's lame) But I did end up becoming the relief society 1st counselor in our ward and so that is quite fun. :) Sadly I got poor from buying a car and so I haven't finished the asl classes yet. :( It's rather sad, but I'm good enough to have conversations with people in asl. (so I guess that's good) Isn't it interesting how life never goes how you plan for it to go and that is like never!!

At the moment I'm working at the Logan City Library through DI, so that is really fun and I'm planning to go next week to see if they have any openings. (or just ask them if they will have any openings in the next month) So hopefully that works out, but the only thing with that would be that I'd need to stay in Logan if I got a city job. Like I said nothing goes as planned, so for all we know I'll never end up in Salt Lake. (we'll see though)

The icky part about almost being 31 is that I'll have to go to an over 31 ward and not ysa anymore. Hopefully that isn't to bad, but I can see it being odd with dating anyways. Most likely I'll end up with lots of guys asking me on dates, but they'll all be the DI type. :(

As a side note, this is a pretty funny post to read since it's now 2018. I've been in mid singles over two years and it isn't terrible at all. Guys don't even date for that matter, it's more everyone is just friends so I like it. Also the person in the YSA that I kept mentioning was a guy that I liked. In the end he's still single and hanging out to this day. I think he's realizing that he needs to date though from comments he's made in recent months. So maybe he'll be married sooner then expected.

I don't know about this one...

So my friend Angela and I were going to be roommates in the summer and next school schools. Well today we were going to sign the summer contract, and while we were going there Angela told me how it was not going to work out for us to go to this other apartment in the school year. But she wants to still be over there due to her boy friend, during the school year anyways. So we went in to sign the contract and the girl asked us if we were going to live there in the school year. And we said that we were thinking about it, but hadn't decided yet if we would stay past the summer. Well we're sitting there and it was totally like right then and there I knew I had to stay during the school year too. So I ended up signing the contract for the whole year, and the other wierd part was that the girl asked me if I wanted to just stay until December. And yeah it was completely like 'stay until May 2014', so yeah I'm in this apartment now. And after we left and I wasn't with Angela anymore I was totally like 'wait a second, how did I end up signing that contract for the whole year.' Yeah there is a certain person you all know about whose in their ward and yeah the summer would have been okay. But now it's the whole school year, yeah I don't know about this. I guess sometimes you have to do something whether you want to do it or not...I guess! But yeah after next school year I will be going to Salt Lake, so it'll be fun and hopefully I am good enough at ASL by then to be an interpreter! Hopefully!!

Nothing to new...

Well I don't really do the whole blog thing anymore, because I really don't have anything new going on. Just taking ASL classes, and this semester especially has been pretty easy so it would be nice if I could get a job. But sadly there is like nothing and so I've applied at alot of jobs but nothing has worked out. Most likely I'll have to work for housing again in the summer, I don't know how excited I am for that. But I am for sure not taking any classes I don't need next school year, I'm planning to only take the ASL classes I need. Then just keep the summer job I end up with, because it's way to expensive without a job. So anyways, nothing to new these days...just the ASL and Institute. I do have several different friends I can go live with next year, and I'm really glad about that because it's really hard being in a ward that has the age average of 21. (when I'm way past 21) So I'm really glad about that since yeah it's just awkward being in a really young ward when your almost 10 years older then everyone else. I most definately haven't dated because of it and so it's been just a bad deal all the way around.

Love my complicated life!!

Life is great in the awesome land of Logan!!

I'm super nervous, I happened to run across a syllbus on the USU homepage for ASL 2; it looks majorly hard. I've also been thinking in relation to grad. school, I don't know if it's a good idea to even both with grad. school. I'm really not the grad. school type and I'd probably graduate with all C's.

I just hate how complicated life can be, I most definately know that I'm sticking with sign language though even if it's hard. So I may just finish the ASL classes and get a school job like Melissa Percival was doing at Myton. I guess that it'll take 4 more semesters to finish the ASL classes though, so I have plenty of time to figure it out!

Anyways, I got to sing in two choirs today, one was Stake choir at Stake Conference. And the other one was with the Institute Choir at a fireside tonight. I love weekends like that, it's in for alot of singing but I love it!! The speakers were amazing and this is most definately one thing that I do love about being in a college town!! Institute of course! :)

Well life is great, I randomly joined Institute Choir the second day of school and I'm really, really glad that I did. It's way awesome, usually I have done choirs just because it's fun to sing...but this choir is majorly tight so it's pretty cool! Tonight we had a post dedication choir concert, alot of the songs were to do with temples/temple work. Seriously every single choir I've ever been in it's been chaos right before at the dress rehearsals ad this was no different. We got there and there were several songs that we had only practiced certain parts so we didn't really have any idea as to how they were working. But they all turned out great, got to love the spirit...:)
I seem to get enlisted into alot of choirs, it's pretty cool though...I'm also in the Stake Choir. It's been pretty fun too, but I like choirs because it makes lots of fun times on Sundays!! :)
Sign Language is Sign Language, I love it but it's soooo confusing at times! But that's okay it's only ASL 1, so I'm sure it's better once you get past level 1!!
