This is the tale of Captain Jack Sparrow

Okay. So ever since I started packing/moving last thursday, I have felt so incredibly exhausted. I'm just constantly tired and dead on my feet and sleeping a lot. I moved for 8 hours friday, then Saturday I went to the Renassaince faire with friends. It was a lot of fun, but it was also on my feet in the sun for another 8 hours. On sunday, I helped Lauren move for 4-5 hours. And yesterday, I started both work and school.

Basically, I'm just moving and on my feet nonstop ever since thursday and I feel drained. So I haven't done much. Including write on here.

So, yeah.

Oh. I got some new computer things cus...Sales. And...I wanted to. So I now have 12 GBs of ram. ((excessive and pointless? maybe a bit. But i feel powerful)) and a secondary 2 TB harddrive.....I haven't actually put anything on it yet, as I'm still a bit worried some of my current harddrive has a virus, so I'm trying to run scans and find it...or prove it isn't there. hah.
I like this pic of me. haha.

The Ren. Faire was a lot of fun, go to go with my Star Wars friends, who also helped me dress appropriately. I always enjoy my time with them.
And now I want to get a good period costume...with leather. I like leather.

Do you see this hat?

So, just beat Crysis. Pretty good game...glitchy though. Maybe its just cus I got it through steam?

The graphics are obviously great, but....I just kept dying randomly....for example....when I'd walk into a tank. Instantly kills me. apparently, I can soak up bullets like a sponge, but any moving object is lethal. Like that locker that I pushed when I had super strength. It fell on me. and killed me. Even though I could hurl it 60 feet, if I tip it over on me, I'm a goner.

The big kicker was the last boss...who might I say was insanely difficult and tedious....I never actually beat it. On my 17th (yeah i was keeping track) try, the game loaded my last check point and all the sudden i start hearing "that did it, its going down" and "Defeat the war ship blah blah blah complete'. So....I glitched into beating the game. A cheap victory, but i was getting sick of running around trying to dodge freeze rays while collecting rocket launchers.

I'm kinda excited for my job to start...for one, it means a new place to live that'll hopefully be a tad bit roomier than my current accomadations. Second, Money. yay. Third, I need something to do.

I'm thinking I'm still going to take my two summer classes....really worried about my grades from this last semester. Dunno how my scholarship will fare....so here's hoping.

I wasn't even there!

So, a happy Mother's day to my lovely mother. She really is all I could ever want from a Mom. She's raised me very well, in my opinion, and Im super glad to have her and all she does for me.

In other news...the last three mornings, as soon as I roll out of bed, blood pours from my nose. It's not bleeding, but apparently it...'pooled' in my nose as I slept? I know that's gross, but it's really annoying cus my bedsheet, pillow case, and now three different sets of pajamas have huge blood stains on them.

Last night was fun. Considering it was 'move out' day, the dumpsters were FULL of good loot, so I went out and did some Urban Foraging. I found a huge beanbag(slight stains, just needs a cover), a nice office chair (stains, missing one of the five wheels, but still usable) Some cleaning supplies I needed, a car stereo....that looks brand new ((kinda worried that one was stolen then dumped cus they got scared, hahah)), a garbage can, a doormat, a small rug, some clothes I plan to make a mannequin out of, a brand new with tags Google laptop case, and a plastic folding chair.

So I went to bed early ((for me)) yesterday cus...well, I was tired after going around collecting and transporting all that stuff.

Do you want ants?! Cus this is how we'll get ants!

Had my last final yesterday....and my teacher already graded all 40 of the 40 free response tests....so props to her.

But yeah...I knew I did really bad on it. I didn't know most of the answers and had to leave a lot blank. So, not surprising, this was my worst test....but at least it gets dropped.

I did really good on another one of my finals, so that's good.

And of course, in the class that I'd been scoring 98-100 on the other tests, I scored a 70.

All in all, it looks like I'm going to end up with a B average in a lot of my classes....I just hope i keep my scholarship. I'm really worried honestly. But what can I do now but wait and see.

The Problem with Bots

So you know those spam bots that randomly add you on any messenger program and act like they are a long lost friend or saw you on the dating site you never joined?
I have this weird obsession of trying to get them to admit they are bots.

I know that doesn't make sense. I mean....its not like they are sentient. They are just preprogrammed with things to say. But I'll still just reply to everything they say with things like 'You are a bot", "you aren't fooling me", "just admit you are a bot" and then finally I try to break them by yelling "THIS SENTENCE IS FALSE".

I don't know what I'd do if a bot suddenly did start responding to me intelligently. Probably freak out.

May the Fourth be with you

So. Dentist trip is now over with....lot of fun, let me tell you.

I had to drive to Ogden for it cus...that's where my dentist is. And I hate driving. I get distracted/bored and Im not the best driver so I get nervous. PLUS....my car guzzles gas. A trip to Ogden and back runs me about 20 bucks nowadays.

Anyway, I made it there and back, and my cheek is still numb.
At first, I kinda like when its numb, its fun to poke and whatnot, feels all funny. But after about 20 minutes, it just makes me angry. I'm mad that I can't feel it but at the same time it hurts...somehow. So I've been trying to glare at my cheek((quite a feat, let me tell you)) but it's still numb.


Oh, and its May the Fourth be with you day, so...yay for Star Wars!!

Once I stop fighting with my cheek, I'm going to cram for my last final tomorrow and then I am DONE for the 'year'. Exciting!

Arisotle vs....Mashy Spike Plate!

Okay. I am very bad at dedicated blogging. I just feel like im saying the same things over and over.But Ill try to post more. They just may be short posts.

So it's pretty much been a month since I posted. Ill just try to recap what happened last month to the best of my memory.
I got the same job I had last summer, doing summer conferencing. So that's good. The pay is...decent, but it has free housing so that's a good perk. I just am kinda bound to the campus.

We had our huge "Galaxy of Wishes" make a wish fundraiser on the 9th. By we, I mean the make a wish foundation invited the 501st. It was a really fun night, I got to wander around the Clark Planetarium in my armor. Lot of rich drunk people were there. It was interesting.

My family visited for a week, and I was able to visit my grandpa and that side of my family and show off my costumes. It made me really happy because they were really into it and proud of me. I was worried they'd laugh or think i was a freak.

I stayed at a Hotel with my mom/brothers for a couple days, here in SLC. It was nice to just hang out and spend time with them again. It was sad to see them go but I'm glad we got to spend some time together. I do miss them.

Let's see...what else...That's pretty much the big things....
Oh, there was the MS walk last saturday, I walked it in my armor with my garrison...but my socks were not chosen well. I got blisters. It killed. But it was a good time.
Random Pic we took with a family. The rain looks neat.


My finals are this week...two are over so far, and I feel like I did pretty well on one...no clue on the other....and I just have a third, final, hardest one to do on Thursday.

Tomorrow I get to drive to Ogden to get a cavity filled....stupid Molar....It doesn't hurt, and I can't see it. If I hadn't happened to be using my finger to clean my teeth, I never would've felt the MASSIVE HOLE IN MY TOOTH.
It sucks...and it's going to cost a lot to fix....
But such is life.

Once finals are done, I have a week before my job starts to enjoy my apartment all to myself...and clean it.
And then its JOB TIME.

Ahhh, also. I got to join a D&D campaign that takes place online. ((Yes, I'm a nerd. If you guys hadn't realized that before...well that's just sad)).
I've only done one session but its been a lot of fun.

http://angryliterate.blogspot.com/2011/05/d-breakout-kings-session-1-2.html

There's a recap one of the players wrote, if you wanna check it out. I look forward to playing more.

Are you touching me ghost?

Good weekend. Got to spend it with Devin who came down for a friendly visit.
I was able to go out to dinner with my 501st friends which is always a blast. I think we torment the waitresses a lot....they always give us dirty looks...To be fair, we are laughing very loudly at very crude things.
Speaking of 501st, I got the Spec Ops sixth anniversary challenge coin/patches! Yay for swag!
I really like challenge coins. Not sure why. But it makes me proud to hold one. I am a nerd!

So, Devin and I watched a lot of Ghost Adventures and played a lot of Wii tennis...and then he played a lot of wii basketball which was entertaining to watch. I do like hanging out with him, but we always seem to get sick or feel dead after.
Dance class was good today. I was having a hard time, but the instructor basically told me I'm more or less doing it right, but its hard when you have to do it with a partner. I dunno. It was just a fun class today. Cheered me up. And I'm not TOO tired today, which is weird cus i only slept 7 hours. Maybe that's a good amount for me? Or maybe its because devin and I slept in a lot? Meh.

Reapplied for the summer job I had last summer. Conference coordinator. I'm hoping I get it again for a couple reasons. One, I enjoyed it last year. Two...I'm going to be screwed for a job/place to live if not. So here's hoping. Provided I do get it and everything works out, then I just need to figure out housing for next year, and a job. But I have at least 2 weeks to put off thinking about that!

There was more I wanted to type about. But the teacher lecturing is distracting me from the far more important blogging. 

So, Stephen Colbert sang "Friday" as part of a fundraiser.
Here's the song

You should listen and enjoy.

I've gotta get my tax forms from the IRS sometime in order to complete the financial aid process....but I really don't want to go down to the IRS office til AFTER tax day...Because I'm lazy and don't like to deal with people/hassles/driving.

I really do hate driving.
I suck at it. And almost kill myself/others far too often.

So I don't remember if I said, but my other job ended so for the time being, I'm jobless. I feel kinda bad because I didn't end up doing a lot of what I had set out to do. Not just because im lazy, mostly because the professor just never GAVE me things to do. He said he'd get back to me and I'd do X and Y but...He never did. I'm hoping I wasn't just supposed to...figure it out on my own or whatnot and now he's mad at me? I haven't talked to him in a while, he's hard to get ahold of. Ah well. The other problem is, he's also the guy I have to work with to get my human factors certificate...another thing we were supposed to talk about but he hasn't gotten back to me on...

Just another one of those things I've been putting off because Im nervous/lazy. I just need to get on all this...sort out my life. Being an adult is hard.
Yet, I still don't feel like an adult. I just feel like a kid living on my own.

Meh. I'm still in a good mood....and I'll probably put this all off for a while longer anyway.

In other news, In Super Smash BrosBrawl, I'm really getting to like Zero Suit Samus.

A Sandwich with words?

It's been a while. Interesting couple of weeks. Overall, just a lot of school and work as usual. And Dragon Age II...came out last tuesday, beat it in a week, 40 hours....It was good overall, a few complaints, but still good.

So I had two tests last week that I felt like I did AWFUL on. I studied a lot ((for me anyway)) but still felt unprepared...They are both short answers, no multiple choice, so I'm out of my element.
Well, I just got grades back from them...I got 94 and 95 out of 100 on them. The 94 wasn't curved at all. I just got the test back and EVERY question I guessed on, I somehow got right....I really don't know how, but I won't question it. The 95...I left a LOT blank. It shouldn't be POSSIBLE for me to have scored that high, but I'm not going to question it. I'm just grateful for this spot of luck.

Spring Break is next week, and everyone keeps asking me what I'm going to do. So far my plans include sitting at home. And that's it.

This semester is almost out...its crazy. I only have 21 more credit hours before I graduate....I have no idea where I'm going after that....Life is coming up on me fast.

Tuesday, March 1, 2011

I dunno why but today seems like its gonna be a Great Day

Actually it WAS a great day. Last day of my beginner fencing class. I still suck, but on thursday I start....INTERMEDIATE FENCING. Dun dun dunnnn

And after that is when the really nice part of my day occured. I got to hang out with someone new, and we had a mini picnic at the park, fed ducks, played Zombies!!! and  just talked and asked each other questions for about...7 hours. It was really nice. I haven't smiled that much in a while.


Playing GTA with devin now, in a public match, and just meeting some crazy people who are a lot of fun to drive around and cause mayhem with. I'm drinking some grape koolaid and eating cashews. I feel content.

Am I a pretty girl?

So, haven't posted in a while. Nothing really happened until this weekend....

On saturday, I got to go to a Murder mystery dinner with my 501st friends....except there weren't enough 'male' characters to play...so guess who got cast as the slutty one?
Yep. That's me. Thanks to Lauren for dressing me up and doing my makeup and Nikki for letting me borrow the wig.
Besides the fact that I couldn't find women's shoes in my size and the dress was a bit small, not that uncomfortable. And I don't think I look TOO bad.
The dinner was a ton of fun. Good food, and we were laughing like crazy.

After that, I came home and Lauren, Devin and I stayed up til almost 5 am just being crazy and wandering around upper campus or talking. Then, we woke up this morning...well, afternoon, and went to IHOP for all you can eat pancakes.

Following that we went to petsmart and played with adorable cats that we fell in love with and really wanna adopt...except none of our current abodes allows pets....
I got to work on Swampy a bit today, and resubmit approval pics. If I'm lucky, I may be an official 501st member within the next couple of weeks. Here's hoping!

That's really all that's new. Besides that its just the usual day by day humdrum.

Sunday, February 6, 2011

Lights off!

Got a letter from Ryan today! Yay. So hopefully I'll get my reply out soon.

These last few days have been interesting. I have eaten nothing but junk food and It's starting to show. I'm not feeling too great. I was gonna go shopping on Friday, when I SHOULD have gotten paid...but I didn't, so I'm waiting til tomorrow...So I've been living off all the stockpiled chips, cookies, and assorted sugar products I've had around.


Not looking forward to tomorrow...I have a test in one of my classes that is all essay questions....and the 'study guide' the professor gave us is worthless and confusing. So that'll be fun.
And...I don't wanna go to Ballroom...Every time I think about it I feel sick to my stomach.

Still trying to figure out this summer job/living wise. Also fun.

Today was the superbowl....and what have I done today? Well, I've sat on my computer being bored, half halfheartedly playing video games, and eaten junk food. I had hoped for something to do tonight but....plans fell through.
Look at what I drew. Yay. I'm clever. hahah. Eventually I'm gonna make a Ronald Raygun that'll look similar...

I put it up on zazzle...they STILL haven't fixed the store. I keep emailing them and they just reply "we don't know when the problem will be resolved'.....so until then the store is confusing to navigate....though I get the feeling most people aren't navigating the store so much as searching for keywords. *shrug*



Can't remember if I mentioned this on here before, but I really wanna do a L4D 'poster' photoshoot.

Okay. I've sat here for ten minutes just now, and still can't think of anything to write, so I'm gonna go.

We can dance if you want to

Except for the fact that I cannot dance.

Or at least..not very well.

For those who don't know, I'm taking ballroom dance right now as an elective. I've really enjoyed the class, and up until last class period, I was more or less getting it. But these last two classes, we started doing the Viennese waltz and...its bad.

I just can't keep up, can't count the steps, I trip over my feet...People say I'm getting better, and maybe I am, but Im still messing up a lot.

I don't know if this is some childhood experience or just my low self esteem or what but...me sitting there struggling, trying time and time again to get it and still failing...I feel sick. My stomach hurts, I can't look anyone in the eye, I dont' wnat to be around people, and I've come close to crying.
Logically, I know this shouldn't upset me like this. These are tricky steps, and its natural to have problems. But as with pretty much everything in my life, it doesn't matter how logical I can be, my emotions take control.

So, anyway, Im just feeling really low today...Hopefully I can shake it soon but..yeah.
I still want to get better...and part of me wants to keep trying, the other part wants to just give up so I don't fail anymore.
But I always give up on everything. I've never tried hard for anything in my life. Its just a series of coincidental successes, and all the failures that I instantly push away to never try again.

Blah. Wasn't my intention to make this into a whiny complaining thing. But I guess that's the mood I'm in. Sorry.

Wind Chill

So I haven't written in a bit. Not much has been going on I suppose.
A few of RealityBytes Shirts sold the past few days, and 2 of them were ones I personally drew, so that makes me happy.

Ah, I did try something new last saturday. I went to a dance club. It was certainly and interesting experience, but I enjoyed it. I didn't really dance so much as people watch, but that in itself was a lot of fun. Dunno if I'll be doing it again but.. *shrug* it was something new.

Besides that life's been the usual. Work, school, video games, homework, sleeping, little costuming.

Still kinda bummed out because there's a few people who I'm trying to get to know better, be better friends with, etc...but it alway sseems like something comes up so they can never talk or hang out.
And me with my self esteem...well I can't help but think that they just find me annoying and are politely trying to avoid me.
Even some old friends have been that way the past few months. I mean, most of our conversations were only ever over the internet, but even that, now they just ignore me. It kinda hurts, and I wonder if I did something or...

Eh, but whats it matter really. I've got a few good solid true friends, and to them I am very grateful.

Picture if you will

This post is going to be a rant. Angry/emotional. So don't read it if you don't want to. It's mostly for me anyway.

I'm tired of being a backup plan.

I am trying to date. I am trying to flirt. I am trying to get back out into the world.
I've always had problems with rejection and being shy when it comes to women. But people always say you just have to put yourself out there and try.

Well I have. And unfortunately all it's got me is rejection. I am really getting sick of people who act all friendly and interested for a while. Maybe they don't mean to, maybe that's just me. I get that. But I don't think it can ALL be me.
It has just happened with multiple people. We text or chat online, its all friendly, going good, then...I don't hear from them for days/weeks. They don't answer texts. I try  not to send a ton or be annoying/creepy. And then one day, bam, I start getting texts from them again for a few hours. The pattern repeats and it doesn't take long for me to figure out when someone has long car rides or a slow day at work.
Whether the person just wants a friend or has actually considered me datable doesn't really matter. I'm tired of just being an option. Just someone you can talk to when you don't have anything else to do.

Look, I'll be the first to admit I have problems. One of them being insecurity and low self esteem. And this doesn't help.
It would just...It would be nice to know I was wanted. To know that someone cared about me, enjoyed my company, and actually wanted me for more than just a time filler. I know I have friends who care about me, and I truly do appreciate them, but I need something more.

And yeah yeah, Im sure ill find them eventually, I just have to wait, blah blah blah.
But what if I wait and it never comes.

People always tell you to wait. It's simple. Because they don't have to back up anything they say.
"Im sure youll find someone eventually". And if 20 years goes by and they still haven't found someone? well then they obviously just need to keep waiting, right?

My point is...I lost the one person who mattered to me most, and, like a lot of people, I didn't realize what I lost til it was gone.
And the more I try to find someone else, to see if I can love and be loved again...well, the more discouraging it gets.

That's my rant. And I'm willing to bet the people who this is directed at won't read it because they don't actually really care....and if they do....well, then let me know?


Sorry for just complaining, but, like I said this is mostly for me.

Pills Here!

A lot of Left4Dead has been happening recently. Yay for zombies.

I actually had a kinda freaky dream last night involving the zombie apocalypse...and River Tam was helping me survive. So i think that's a win on my part. 

Yesterday was a good day. I woke up, went to the Southtown expo center for 3ish hours. There was a big 'kids fair' type thing going on there. Lotta booths, bouncehouses, etc. So there were a TON of kids around, and they enjoyed us being there. When I say "us" I mean the 501st garrison. I wore swampy....most of which was held together by duct tape...I really need to get that thing fixed properly but...I fail...
On the bright side, the lovely Jill is helping me fix up my cummerbund. For which I am eternally indebted.

After that...I tried my hand at LARPing. It was an interesting experience. And cold. I got invited from a garrison member who does it regularly. Oh, LARP is Live action role play for those who don't know. Basically...ummm. its D&D in live action form where you act out your part, etc. 
I played NPC's all night ((it was so cold)) which meant I was all the expendable mercenaries, zombies, one-armed monsters, etc. It was kinda fun. Dunno if I'll end up doing it again. i'm kinda up in the air about it.


Today was a really lazy day. I've sat around and played 8 hours of video games with Devin. The only time I left my house was to get some tacos! which I drenched in fire sauce.So yeah...a lazy day.

And...yeah. New week of school tomorrow. Blah. Not looking forward to it particularly.

-----------
Next day. My dream last night? I wandered to a theatre that did "Toy Story" shows. Somehow ended up backstage. They were understaffed so they threw me in.....My costume? Chewbacca riding a yoshi. It was....weird.

Sandvich and Me

These last few days, my brain has been dead. I dunno if it's because school has started...I doubt it. I haven't done that much.
My sleep hasn't been what you'd call restful. I keep having nightmares, and while I stay asleep, I can't help but wonder if it's not restful, because I'm really tired all the time. Even after 10 hours of sleep.
Eh, Ill just hope it turns out better. Maybe its just my time of the month.
The extended weekend was a lot of fun. Devin came over and stayed two nights. We had good times. Video games, staying up til 5 am, etc. We turned Lauren onto video games. Left4Dead to be specific. She now loves killing zombies. Well, she probably did before. But now she has an outlet.
So yay for conversion to the way of the nerd!

And Now I'm off to play more games.

Ferrets

Sometimes, the hardest part about writing these blogs is coming up with a title.
Not that many of you who read this probably GET the titles or why I put them.
But I enjoy it.
Usually its something I've watched/listened too, talked about, etc, a lot recently.
This is today's Inspiration. It's my kind of humor. Dark and creepy. And musical.

Right. Down to buisness.

Classes still going well. I really enjoyed my fencing class. We got to suit up and pick up an epee today. ((Holy crap, I spelled that right I think. That was a shot in the dark. Go brain!)) I'm not 'good' at it. But...I really enjoy it. I WANT to get good. I'm still that kid on the play ground who would pick up sticks and swing them at people and try to challenge people to duels.
Though I blame my name for that.

I mean really, YOU try being named after a Musketeer and NOT sword fighting.

And how cool would it be if I got into it a bit competitively? And ended up dueling a trio of friends and then teaming up with them to save the king of France.


It's been a good day. A bit boring at times, but I've felt good today.

Yesterday...or was it two days ago...Meh, either way. I spent about 405 hours and finished up Chewbacca's back. Leaving the front and arms before im done latchooking!! ((well, if you don't count all the places I have to patch up, and the extra leg flares I still need to sew in then hook...))
The flash is on in this, so it makes it super shiny, but...well, you get the idea. Those are the pants laying under it. I wish I had a mannequin to put it on. Not that my dorm would have room. But it'd be fun.

That's pretty much it as of late. No homework this week, so its just been classes, work, video games, and costuming. Can't complain really.

Karma Chameleon

Well, first two days of classes are over, and they went pretty well. I'm taking an easier semester this go round.
I have two psychology classes in class, and one online one. The online one looks like its going to be the toughest, and the other two both have short answer exams. That scares me. But, hopefully I can keep an A in them.
My other two classes are Ballroom Dancing and Fencing. Both require coordination and skills I do not possess, but ideally by the end of the semester I'll be able to fare a little better on both of them.

I've been trying to work on Chewie some more but still running into trouble with him....really getting discouraged. With Swampy as well...so far, the only parts that have held together are the ones I had help putting together.
Blah.

Anyway, not much else new in my life. Things have been fairly boring actually.

Turn Around Brighteyes

Total Eclipse of the Heart has been running through my head a lot recently. I've always liked this song, and about a year ago it gained new meaning for me after I had a discussion with someone about it.

Also, if you haven't seen the literal version, go check it out, its fairly funny.

I get to move back into my dorm tomorrow! Yay! Very excited to not be vagabonding around anymore. I miss having a bed....and my car gets 20 MPG....Driving back and forth from Logan to Ogden to Brigham to Provo to Ogden to Salt Lake, etc, was really adding up...

But I would like to thank everyone who let me stay at their place. However, I don't think any of them really read this blog, so.....I guess here isn't the right place to do that.

I've been wearing the Necklace ryan gave me pretty much nonstop since I got it. I was thinking it'd take me a couple days to acclimate to, as that's what's happened before with watches, necklaces, etc. But this thing, why, I don't even notice it. Which is good. I think.

No clue why, but I can't rearrange the items in the Reality Bytes store. It says 'changes may take up to an hour to be reflected in store'. But its been saying that for days now. I don't know what to do about that....Hopefully its a programming glitch that works itself out after a while.

Things really slowed down with the 501 this month, but It looks like it'll pick up soon. There's a really cool event in a few months. A BIG Make-A-Wish fundraiser at the planetarium that is Star Wars Themed. I've only done one make a wish event before but it was really cool.
I wanna try to get Chewie done by then....It'd be a lot of fun to do. I just need to figure out those bloody legs/stilts.....

And feet.

And how to strap the mask to my head.....and get the jaw to work.


So there's still a lot to do.
But...It's 2-3 months ish so...who knows.


Well, its almost two. And I have to be awake in six hours.

Hello Happy Hobo

Dang, didn't realize I hadn't posted in so long...my bad.

Christmas was good. I drove down to my uncle's on the 25th and spent the night with my Mom and Uncle/family. We watched Labrinyth which I had never seen before. It was pretty good. Gotta love the cheesy 80's movies.
Ohh, I also got another letter from ryan with some Hungarian chocolates and a Magical Hungarian Amulet! Yay!
Okay, It may not be magic. But its pretty shiny and I've liked wearing it.
The next morning I drove back to SLC. Hung out with Lauren and spent the night there, and then I think it was the next day (Ive been having trouble keeping days straight) I drove back to Ogden, spent the night at devins, then went to Chelsea's ((his sister)) wedding the next day...that was the 29th so....Yeah. Somehow I was there on that day. I can't remember how precisely but. I was.
It was a nice short ceremony, I got a bit teary eyed during it. I didn't really know anyone there so I mostly just lurked, but there was good food and whatnot, so it wasn't bad at all. As everyone was leaving though, BIG blizzard type snowstorm hit. Really hard to drive back to Ogden in.
It had originally been my plan to go visit my family that night, as they were leaving the next morning....Well I didn't want to risk driving through the blizzardish snow...I suck at driving, and snow only makes the equation worse.
I feel bad for not getting to see them again but...I hope they understand. I did send the xbox back home with them. I think they were happier about that anyway.
Sidenote before I forget. Just got the first 50 episodes of Animaniacs downloaded. Yay!
I THINK I stayed at devin's for another day or two...then I went back to SLC...for...two days?
All I know is that I was back there by new years eve. Lauren and I drove down to a club in Provo where the lead singer of Neon Trees was DJing. Clubbing isn't my thing. Or dancing. whatever you call it.
But it was enjoyable. Small thing, only 40-50 people there. Lauren got hit on. Of course.
As soon as the countdown for midnight started, all girls in my vicinity vacated...ha. Not like I had the guts to actually try to kiss someone, but...wasn't the best ego boost.
Such is life though.

After that, I spent another night at the girls apartment but...that couch they have is just too small. Kills my back.
So off to devin's I went again. Stayed the night at his parents place in ogden and...now I'm here. In Logan.

We've been playing Company of Heroes and Warhammer and Need for speed. And pretty much all Ive eaten in the past couple days is Mountain Dew and poptarts. I stay up til 4 and sleep in til noon.
Yay Winter break, Yay college!

I want to try to get Reality Bytes going again. I feel bad for letting ...'die'. but...It's just not as fun with out Ryan.
And there are so many othe rwell established companies out there that do what we do. I dunno. I guess well see.
This break has been a weird blur. And felt really long. School starts a week from today. I still haven't bought any books...
But I can move back into my place Friday! Soooo excited to have my room back.
