Shop Around

I'm sure that many of you are familiar with the song "Shop Around", most recently redone my David Archileta. Not that this song inspired the following, I just realized that it coinsides. As I was driving today I realized something about one of my least favorite subjects to openly speak about in college-marriage. For those not familiar with Utah standards of marriage, getting married can happen very fast. Some people only know each other a couple months or even a couple weeks to days when they decide to get married. Shouldn't people actually get to know eachother first? I feel that marriage should be like shopping. When you are in the store and find something that you like you don't immediatly go to the check-out line. Instead you pick it up and walk with it around the store for a bit. Then once you are done with all of your shopping you decide if you still like it and whether or not you are really willing to take it home. If you are then you make the purchase! You'd hate to get home with it and realize that you shouldn't have made the impulse buy. Somethings are not returnable, and if they are there is no quarentee for a full refund.

Oxy Gene

Some are born with the Oxy gene, while others are not. We as human beings are, as well as other animals (not to gatergorize humans as animals). The Oxy gene is what makes it so that our body system requires oxygene in order to live or function. My car was also created with the Oxy gene, and just like anyone from the beach, this means that it has problems with altitudes. My car is just fine when driving on the freeway, rural areas, or normal streets; however, canyons are another problem. As soon as the altitude starts to increase my car has to slow down to catch its breath. You would think that 60 wouldn't be that big of a deal, but it refuses to hit it. It can barely hit the mark, but once it does it slowly starts to drop again. It's like it creates a goal and tells itself that it can just make it to that point, and once it gets there it wants to sit down and take a break. In order to actually get it to stay at the speed I have to urge it to go faster than necessary, which only creates another problem. Once I get it going its picked up momentum so it doesn't want to slow down. Needless to say there is no happy middle ground, and I may just have to get my car an inhaler. Poor thing.

Alzheimer's

Is it still considered Alzheimer's if what you remember is what actually happened compared to what you thought you remembered?

On Another Slightly Sentimental Note:

It seems like for the moment these might have serious undertones, though this one not as much. It is more of an observation. Actually it was more like one of those moments in life where you will most likely remember the feeling more than the actual incident, where a giant light bulb goes off and you have that moment of true enlightenment. I feel like I have reached a level of Nirvana today. In work today we were required to read this book entitled "Raving Fans." Why it required two people to write it I will never know, but it was one of those inspiration books that's just really corny. Anyway, I was just pages away from the end when a passage totally just hit my consciousness. It says, "'It's not really customers and company. It's just people and people.'" You know what that's all life is, people and people. It doesn't matter the situation or the relationship, because that's what it comes down to it how you are treating other people. The part that got me is the service. A company puts out a service for its customers. Did any of you happen to notice the choice of word there? It is a service. We are asked to give service to others and that it will make us happy, but we don't even have to be conscious about it in order to be giving service to others and making their day better. So here is a thought. If you live your life the best that you can, and just remember that everyone is a human person, just like you, with thoughts, family, desires, and dreams just like you, who knows how much service you can truly give. Just adding points to the big book for when you get to the pearly gates. Goal of the day: Customer Service to everyone!

One Year Anniversary

It has officially been one year today that I have been living in Utah. That's a year's worth of homework, dates, disappointments, late nights, games, parties, sleeping, working, lectures, frustrations, shopping, napping, reading, laughing, joking, praying, and enjoying life that have all happened. I feel like so much has happened and that I've grown so much as a person. At least I hope I have being out here for school and really finding what kind of person I am and who I want to be. Thanks Utah for the great times. Thank you friends for the fun times. And thank you family for all the times I needed support. I love you all!

My Life Is...

I found the most ridiculous website of my life today. mylifeistwilight.com ...wow...All I can say is how bad I feel for all the boyfriends who have to take part in the activities that happen on the page. I don't know why they don't make something a little more reasonable such as mylifeisjaneausten.com or mylifeisdisney.com cause then you could explain breaking out into song and dance.

Dr. Buss

I always wanted to be one of the best in my profession. I was determined to get the highest degree possible, but now I'm not entirely sure that's possible. I don't think I'll be able to get a masters of PHD. "Yes. Hello. I am Dr. Buss, PHD in Interior Design." Goal: Find a school that gives out design PHDs...I guess the equivalent would be attending Julliard which is never happening and I don't think they do Interior Design. Well I guess that I don't have to worry about getting it, so I better get the bachelor's right!

Embarassing Moment of the Day

For my summer class we were asked to bring in a picture that we will be breaking down into 5 basic values. I showed my teacher a picture of my baby sister and the first thing he says to the entire class is, "Is that your baby?" I exclaimed, "NO! It's my baby sister." "Well you never know in Logan." "I'm not even married. Let alone...done..." "Well you don't have to be married." ...Great that's exactly the thing I need you shouting to the entire class...Needless to say no I have no children! And I don't plan on having any until I have a husband I can blame for it.

Things You Should Never do in Life

1) You should never buy a big jar of cinnamon applesauce unless you have every intention of eating it. 2) You should never forget things in your car 3) If you do happen to forget something in your car, I recommend not forgetting it for long periods of time; especially if it happens to contain something that might explode. 4) If you have done a combination of the previous I am sorry for the mess that you will indeed need to clean up. Hot, soapy water, a rag,and a lot of elbow grease should get it out though...Trust me...I know

The Beginning

It's about time I finally got this up and running. I've had it created for while but I finally just got it designed the way I wanted, which was a lot easier to do then I thought, once I put my mind to actually getting it done. The point behind this Blog is to let people know what I'm either up to, wish I were up to, or what I pretend to be up to. It is also an insight into the random thoughts traveling through my mind. I'm hoping that it will inspire a smile on your face and bring a little piece of happiness to your day. Enjoy!!
