When is there a better time to write a blog then when I am in my two and a half hour long art history class? Well, there is no better time. Hurray.

Phew. I just went on and rated my professors for the semester. It's hard for me to give criticism but I did it. A couple of them were kind of harsh...but it's better they know right? I suppose...

So, I'm a big fan of tagless shirts. The shirt I'm wearing right now...is driving me crazy. As soon as I get home, I'm cutting the tag out. Ugh.

Do you ever think about what it would be like to be someone else? I think about that all the time. I think what if I was my roommate, how does she think? Or what if I was someone famous, they're normal too. You know this idea sounds much more interesting in my mind. But as soon as I see it in words...not so much. The other thing I think about is what other people see when they look at me. Or my friends, what I'm like to them. It's kind of scary to think about. It's so hard to imagine being someone else because...I'm so used to being me. =) Makes sense..
In child development we talked about egocentrism and how kids think that they think everyone sees and experiences exactly what they do. Sometimes, I feel like I think this way. I think about how I do a number of different things during the day, I have to consciously think about how other people aren't doing the same things or thinking the way I am. It's weird to think that people are experiencing different things than I am. I'm not sure why that's weird to me, but it is.

I often forget that I'm so old. I still feel like a 10 year old.

Reading through my old blogs makes me realize how pathetic I used to be. Ha.

I'm not very good at handling stress. I tend to let it build up for a while, then explode. Gets messy sometimes.

I love college. I've met so many incredible people. My wonderful friend Kelly who helps me through everything since we've been here. It's an old friendship just picked up where it left off =)

Then there are my roommates. They are so awesome. Mariko is so smart and fun. I'm so lucky. Mikelle is hilarious and always keeping us laughing. Lucy is so cute. She inspires all of us to work harder. Annie is so talented and smart. She teaches us a lot. And Becky is adorable. She keeps us young.

Matt and Spencer. These two boys in my ward are constantly there for me. They are the people I run to when I have some exciting news...or a fun letter to read ;) They mean a lot to me.

All the people I've met in my ward and my building and even just random friends. Every single one of them has taught me something just through their examples. Or even just smiling and saying hello when I needed it.

More recently, Josh and Devin. Josh is just adorable. He keeps me smiling and is a lot of fun to spend time with. I'm more impressed with him the more I learn about him and get to know him. Devin cracks me up. He is completely ridiculous all the time. Which makes hanging out with him all the more fun.

Then there's my friends from home that I miss terribly.
Alyson my besty forever and ever
Kristin who has and always will be there for me
Alex who is the sunshine in my days...

and there are so many more...

Joshua, Keith, Corbin, Jon, Marie, Darci, Dallin, Dallan, Cory, Riley, Alicia, Rebekkah, Emily, Desiree, Ben, Nathan, Clarissa, Scott, Siara, Kayla, Jon, Chris, Anthony....I could go on.

Hmm...this blog turned kind of thoughtful. That's alright I suppose. I like being...thoughtful once in a while haha.

I've only been in class for an hour and 14 minutes. I might die...

I used to be so good at writing in my journal. I would write every single night. Since I've come to school...I've written once. And haven't even finished that entry. Isn't that pathetic. I wish I could get back in that habit. There are other good habits that I've lost as well. An interesting thing I find coming to an LDS school...even though I'm surrounded by LDS people...I hear a lot more crude humor than I ever heard at home. It's interesting. I wonder why that is...

Another thing I never understood was why when I'm using the computer...my right hand gets really cold and my left stays warm when my left isn't doing anything and my right is using the mouse. There has to be some explanation...yeah...I'm sure of it.

What's the big draw with blogging? What is it about typing out whatever you're feeling or thinking that is so fulfilling? We talked about Twitter in English today. I've never really looked into Twitter but as far as my professor explained it, it's basically a way for your friends to know where you are all the time. It's on the spot blogging. You can send a message from your phone to your blog so people know what you're doing while not at your computer. This seems strange to me. But it's not much different than updating your status a lot on facebook, which I am guilty of.

I miss my sister.

Only 52 minutes left of class. =) thank goodness.
What's sad...I have no idea what we're talking about in class. That's pathetic. But pretty exciting.

I love it when people can't remember how to pronounce a word. My mom is the best. She can't say Ohio. She can say Ohiho. But she can't say it without the ho in it. =) Humorous yes. She also can't say strategy. Also quite humorous.

So, I think the reason I procrastinate so much is because I know that I'm really good at doing things last minute. I just wrote a paper for my Book of Mormon class in about 6 minutes. =) Yep. Good stuff. Yay...only 34 minutes left. and 36 minutes left on my laptop battery.

Dang, I'm starving. Which is weird because I ate right before I left for class. Which was less than 2 hours ago. Well, good thing I'm eating dinner when i get home. Yay...food.

I just got hit with a tired wave.

I also just realized how pointless this blog is. I feel bad for any person who actually takes the time to sit and read it. So...if you're reading this...congratulations...and I'm sorry.

Well, I suppose I will wrap this blog up. And say farewell. Until next time...
