Kind of Cranky Today

Today has been just a normal Sunday, it was cloudy and a bit gloomy. Nothing really of not besides for the 2nd day in a row no one told me about dinner when it was done and I almost didn't get any AGAIN! It happened yesterday too. We had grilled cheese and tomato soup. This tomato soup is a lot better than the Campbells soups though and it usually goes pretty fast when we make it. I hat it when I am almost left out of stuff like that, it gets on my nerves.

I am a bit behind in school right now in all my classes except Astronomy. I don't remember if I told you, but we have these weekly quizzes we are supposed to take online on the weekends and I forgot to do a few. My professor was kind enough to unlock them and let me do them so I could get the points. They are pretty hard quizzes, it took me a good 2 and a half hours to get them done. That was earlier this week sometime I think.  I have been able to stay caught up lately which I am glad about. I have a lot to do in my English class though. I am sure I'll survive somehow, I just have to pace myself slowly and keep my mind relaxed. I nearly forgot to do this weeks Astronomy quiz, it was only 20 minutes before it was due before I remembered. I was able to finish it in 12 minutes and get 11 / 20. Not the best score, but it'll have to do.

We had a test in Yoga on Thursday, I was the last one to finish and I actually had to correct after class with the teacher because I was so slow to finish. I was a bit embarrassed, but I did try my best. I even tried to study in my two hours of free time between classes, but couldn't concentrate. I ended up giving up and just heading to class and looking up some stuff on my phone before we did the test. I will be glad to be doing actual Yoga in class again this week. I still have a few things to turn in, but I have to worry about English first. I got all thrown off and stuff and now I am in big trouble. I'm really going to have to crack down on everything this week.

Saturday was boring, I just watched Star Trek, hung out, and did lazy stuff all day. I didn't get any homework done this weekend. I know that is bad, but I had to get organized and plan everything out. I have a feeling I am going to have to be extra motivated this week. 

I went out for Ice cream on Thursday, and got Lime Ricky sherbet. I love Lime Ricky sherbet, it is one of my favorite. I ate it on the way to my yoga class, I was trying to calm down and relax, I was super worried about the test.  I had some cherry chocolate chip ice cream earlier this week, but I didn't like it as much as I thought I would so I decided to get the sherbet the next day.  On Friday they were out of the fruit and yogurt parfaits they have usually, but they had these cherry chocolate pudding pie cups and I decided to try one out. It had whipped cream, cake, pudding, and the cherry filling which was pretty good. I don't think I will get it again, much to sweet and strong for me, but it was good for a one time spur of the moment thing. I had woken up late on Friday, so I didn't get to eat breakfast and I was pretty hungry after English.  I usually do not buy so much stuff at school. I think I am pretty much broke for the next week and a half which kind of sucks.

I've been in kind of a bad mood today, I get that way sometimes. It always passes, but I really don't like it. I probably should have payed more attention to church today for sure.  I went out and visited some of the people in my ward today with my visiting teaching companion. For those who are not familiar with what visiting teaching is it's when you have a female companion, and you are assigned to two different people (girls) and you visit them and talk and give a lesson about some gospel topic once a month.  It can be fun, not everyone's visiting teachers come though, like mine for example. Mine haven't come in over 2 months I'm pretty sure and believe me I hate it. I might just have to complain soon.

I'm still talking to Ronnie, but we haven't gotten to talk very often lately for the last month or so. His life has been pretty complicated and tough and stuff. I really wish I could do more, but he lives so far away it's hard. I really care about him a lot he is an amazing person.

Anyway, I guess this is all for now. If I forgot anything I'll just add it into tomorrows post. :)  <3

Guess who's baaack? FAST FORWARD!

So instead of painstakingly going all the way back to August of last year and trying to insert all the blog entries I have missed, instead of writing individual blog posts for each day I have missed and trying to pretend like they were always there I am just going to summarize everything that has happened in the last year since last August when I started being slow about blogging. Here we go.

 

August: I introduced my first baby picture to facebook, cleared up things with Dylan (I was just being dramatic), I wrote a poem called "You Are" which I will show later, I came up with my motto "I float, I fly, but I never touch the ground. I started walking more, I started taking a serious interest in empathy and my empathic abilities, had my mom's and my nieces Birthday, went to Los Harmonos for my nieces birthday, went to the eye doctor (I am still legally blind). I started watching the Twilight zone, I discovered Minecraft, but didn't start playing yet, I went to a back to school church BBQ, I started doing heavy edits on some of my pictures for fun, went to Lagoon (amusement park) with my ward for a church activity, and became really active in Yahoo Answers and Tetris.

 

September: Got into brain exercise sites like Lumosity and others reached my half way point in weight loss, got a haircut, started reading the Glass Mask manga, continued playing Tetris (that never really wore off remember that). I started walking to the store alone, I joined the Hard Drop Tetris community, got interested in doing T-spins in tetris, did some sunset photography, played a giant game of twister with my church mates, I started using this blog, started using Instagram seriously, listened to my first football game all the way through, it was a really great game. saw Darik and Dylan for the first time in 4 months, got into mines and living statues, got into Masterpiece theater anime, got accepted to uVU, became more conscious about my health and stopped drinking pop, did a whole bunch of tests that helped me figure out what I wanted to do, started playing Minecraft, and had my sister's birthday.

 

October: I dressed up as a golden queen for Halloween, I gained a few pounds from candy back, I seriously started playing Minecraft, I bought Minecraft, started exerimenting with night time themed nails, started making custom My little Ponies for fun, got into My Little Pony Friendship is Magic in general, lost my liking for all Zynga games after I started playing Minecraft, decided i did not want long hair anymore, nearly destroyed my other creations in Minecraft when I was just trying to destroy one of them with TNT blocks.  LDS general Conference, I got over a little case of depression and finally decided I wanted to go into Psychology instead of English, my motivation and happiness went up this month in general. I also kicked some bad habits.

 

November: I renewed my subscription to Pandora One, my dad started seriously making bread, a new Tetris app came to the app store, I made my first reading list, celebrated Thanksgiving, started seriously thinking about using my white cane, had my first facebook profile picture that was me as a baby.

 

December: The power went out for a little bit on the first, cut my hair and regretted it, played my first 100 games in a row on Tetris Friends and won exactly 25 of them, also had one of the luckiest games I have ever played. We started remodeling, tore out all 3 bathrooms and re-did all of them, made an extra room downstairs, painted, did new carpeting, got rid of our ugly brick wall downstairs, got rid of the creaks in the floor, got a new storm door, celebrated Christmas with the family and new, years, everyone caught the flu after Christmas except for me, i only for a minor cold and was lucky. Saw Sam and started to think about letting go of him, switched to the new timeline design on facebook, went to a ward, church Christmas party and brought home lots of candy and stuff. Bought muppet Christmas Carol off of iTunes, finished remodeling the house (upstairs only) Got a new bed set, and moved everything back into my room again. We didn't get the Christmas decorations up until the day before Christmas because of the remodeling.

 

January: New Year, Dyed my hair again, did some family pictures with everyone, finished carpeting and everything else downstairs (I remember that we finished this month, not last month). My room was finished last month though, also the upstairs obviously.  Started my first semester of college in almost 4 years, took Student Success, choir, psychology, and 2 institute classes (teachings of the Living Prophets and Dating and Courtship), got a new laptop, got my textbooks, did a brain drawing in psychology, worked in a group successfully in psychology for the first time, got off to a really great start in school. I found my favorite study spot in the library, started going to Jamba Juice regularly on Mondays at school. Started eating at school for lunch, went shopping, lived off of 94 dollars this month it was crazy after all the shopping I did. Had my first conversation with a complete stranger over lunch. When i was crossing a street my phone fell out of my pocket, when i realized it was gone I retraced my steps and found it without a scratch on it. It was a busy street.  Got used to reading Textbooks, and memorized the university campus.

 

February: Got into a show Called "Merlin", pondered how silly Groundhog day really is, finally officially lost interest in Sam, started looking up 5K plans for running, kicked my habit of not drinking enough water, started using the Calorie Count website, went to Cold Stone Creamery and got some Mint Ice cream. Celebrated both my brother's birhdays,  nothing much happened on Valentine's Day except for FHE (family Home Evening) we made valentines, I didn't really make anything that great, I just fooled around mostly and listened to people talk, I think I remember going to the store that day and getting chocolate for fun. I listened to Nightwish's new album for the first time and got hooked on it for a few weeks,  I found out my intense love for stars is called "Astrophillia". Finally got my feelings for Dylan back, I had been numb for a long time after I lost my best friends.  I bought all of Jane Austen's books, joined Pinterest, my ward did a murder mystery night it was fun, and I went back and watched some old Sesame Street videos I liked and thought about the past. I also did some poetry this month but I will post that later. School was doing great this month.

 

March: Got out my old Marble collection and set it out in the open in my room again, bought some Miyazaki films like Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind,  and the Cat Returns. Had spring break it was kind of borig being out of school.  Started reading the bible but slacked off half way through the month, started looking for 90's cartoons I hadn't seen in years, went to Costco a few times, did not wear green on St. Patricks day due to not having anything green, made a magical girl anime list for some of my friends, bought a digital psychology textbook to help me with memorizing, also bought a 1 year subscription to MyPsychLab. Started eating Sixlets again after a long time, made home made pizza with some friends, I think general conference happened at the end of this month too. I was a little nervous at this time because finals were close in a few weeks.

 

April: Got my own Netflix account, realized how many times i got to text someone but end up not saying anything a lot of the time, started to get a little sad about school ending soon, finished my last homework assignments, did my psychology final, and gave my final presentation in Student Success, did a choir concert, signed up for fall semester classes, got straight A's in all my classes, was a little nervous about the final for psychology at the beginning of the month but it turned out perfect. I finished my psychology final a week earlier than everyone else it was open book and online. Joined Khan Academy, told everyone about my former phobia towards mirrors, finally learned how to take screenshots with my phone. i had never really bothered to learn before. Started jogging / walking a little, but kind of slacked off a little.  Said goodbye to Darik and Dylan for good, it ended really awkwardly which is sad but there is nothing I can do about it now. I'll probably never see them again and even though i do have regrets I will have to deal with it. I learned that expressing myself to them isn't a good idea because they just don't get it. We celebrated Easter and I rally aggravated a few of my teeth with all the candy and nuts. I started using xylitol toothpaste and mouthwash to help my teeth more, before I had been using floride toothpaste and stuff.  Realized that staying inside or inside my room makes me a little crazy and irritable so now I have stopped staying in my room 24/7. one of my friends brought me cupcakes, did a hobo dinner with some friends for an FHE activity one evening it was awesome. We roasted a whole bunch of stuff over a fire and made banana boats as well, we chilled our drinks in the nearby river it was cool. My grades became final, got straight A's for sure.

 

May: Started reading the book of Mormon seriously, went to my brother's graduation, mentioned how I am glad I only have to be out of school for a 3rd of the year, minecraft came to Xbox 360 I do not own an xbox though. I took picture of m goalball trophies and uploaded them to facebook to share with everyone, joined soundcloud, went to seven Peaks a few times, bought a season pass to Seven Peaks,  went to Trafalga with a few of my friends for an FHE activity, went to a party at my friends and swam in her Venice themed swimming pool, also made smoores, and watched a movie as well. went to the Rec Center nearby once,  got my nieces into Phineas and Ferb,  watched Redwall again.  had to cut more branches off our apple tree, found out our next door neighbors are moving.  Got a new wall clock.

 

June (so far): Went shopping for some new clothes, just new shirts. Got a new chair for my room, my family got a new fridge yesterday, I reached episode 85 in Xena, all caught up in Phineas and Ferb again, Made it to Mosiah in the book of Mormon,  Started attending the Temple Prep class in church,  went to Seven Peaks, became really active on Instagram again, roses have bloomed and I took pictures. I went to this place yesterday called the Pizza Pie Cafe and ate pizza, pasta, salad and breadsticks like there was no tomorrow. I also went to a movie (Mirror Mirror) it was fabulous. I had thurch this week, and got all the way to Alma in the Book of Mormon, i reached season 6 in the Xena series, been spending time with my nieces, became really active on Experience Project until someone with a gross picture started following me. I got turned off after that and left. Decided to go back to Xanga, and this is where I am now!

DON'T GROW UP TO FAST!!

QUIT GROWING UP TO FAST!

I see all these little girls that are pressuring themselves to be "mature' and "adult like". Stop it please and enjoy your youth while you can!! If you don't do that then when you really become an adult you will be facing a lot more regret than you'll imagine. Your a  kid because your supposed to be one your not supposed to grow up. Get an imagination play some stupid kiddie flash games don't let you parents pressure you into growing up fast because its a bad idea. 

Quit wearing makeup it doesn't belong on your face before high school. Live as a young girl or boy be silly have fun get dirty play sports climb trees. 

Its not healthy for your mind or your body to try and take something you can't handle. you can't handle being an adult if your not an adult. 

Now that I'm almost a  full adult I find myself with no regret behind me. I almost made the mistake of trying to act older than I was. Before it was too later though luckily I realized just how important my youth was and i lived it to the fullest. I have absolutely no regrets now that I'm almost an adult. I can't wait to go out inot the world and show them what a women I've become. I'm sure I'll still get to do the fun and games like before but I'll be in college again and Ill have a job and I'll be able to be the grown up me without worrying that I wasted my life. 

Another thing for all those people that are in High School right now. When you get out you're going to wish you were back in and you're going to wish you had that time back. your going to wish you were younger and you hadn't rushed it so much. I did go through that stage. I have no regrets about my life outside of school but when it comes to school I have a lot of regrets. I wish I could do it al over again and try harder. So do your best and be the best person you can be

enjoy your life while you are still young.
