"And go after the one which is lost, until he finds it...."

Don't get me wrong I love Chirstmas. I love love love Christmas. I'ts a time that I shouldn't allow myself to get overwhelmed...

but the truth is I still do.

Cause sometimes:
You feel ugly and you suck
Sometimes... your car sucks and you're pretty sure you should just sell it because you can't afford everything.
Sometimes you wish you were completly done with school...
Sometimes you SHOULDN'T care... but guess what you still do, which completely sucks...
Sometimes your too late...
Sometimes....

In order for this post to not be a complete "Woest Me-Pitty Party"...

Let me just say I am grateful for Christ and Heavenly Father and I know I'm apart of a bigger plan and picture. I just wish sometimes life happened like I wanted it to.

Sometimes I wish I learned my lessons faster.
Sometimes I wish I figured it out before it was too late.
Sometimes I wish he cared.

Resolution, Realistic, REWARD

Recently I've been considering what I want to do for my New Years Resolutions. Yes, plural. I've made several goal lists over the last few months.

I have a tendency to make a HUGE list.... After I create this gigantic list, I have a revelation to cut it down. So I create a "New" list. Next, I make a "Realistic Goal List" because let's face it I'm overzealous.

The problem is I get overwhelmed with my "To Do List" and so I accomplish nothing. Therefore, I have created a solution, the "Reward List".

I'm going to create a chart so I can cross of my success. And instead of feeling dreadful if I don't do anything, I'm deciding to use a reward system.

Yes, I'm aware it sounds slightly adolecent. But here's the thing: It's not!! :D Admit it... I'm a genius... ;P

Each goal or activity will give me a different amount of points which I will be able to use to reward myself.

For example:
21 points could allow me to eat out
133 could let me purchase a shirt...

And instead of mapping things out saying I'll do something daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly.... bla... I'm just doing to DO. And when I DO something I'll REWARD myself... :D

Here are some things I've been considering to add to the "Better Me/Reward List"

-Game/movie night We'll rotate when ever we choose. I just need to find a location...
-30 min on the guitar
-Performance at Groovacious
-Eating fruit or veggies I need to be more healthy! I'm basically addicted to sugar...
-Morning Prayers
-Pool competitions at the institute building (the kind with the "eight ball")
-Going swimming at the SUU's PE building I LOVE LOVE LOVE swimming but I have this dreaded fear of people seeing me with out my makeup(It's above snakes, public speaking [It's probably around top fear number 5 or 6].) I'm pretty sure I'll give myself 5 points for this task.... lol... maybe 10.... Although the points will only count if it's at the school PE building (or else it would defeat the fear).
-Working out at the gym

Are you working on your New Years Resolution List?

p.s.

School is out... for now ;D

Remember When

Remember when:

-Homework took fifteen minutes

-Boys were "icky"

-Being in trouble consisted of getting sent to your room or putting your nose against the wall

-Getting ready in the morning took five minutes or less

-Your mom use to make shapes out of pancakes....


Ahhhh to be a kid. At least my mother still makes shapes out of pancakes!

Apparently new technology has made waffle makers that have shapes. Our Bishop in my ward has one...



Can you say magical?

P.S.
I still think boys are icky :P

P.P.S.
It took me forever to think of kid things that I don't do currently.... What can I say, I'm a kid at heart. :D

maybe I just suck at convincing myself

I'm sick... AGAIN... boo!

That whole idea about telling yourself your not going to get sick (once you start feeling sick)... thus far hasn't worked.

Maybe I just suck at convincing myself?

"It's My Turn to Decide"

I adore this song:




Sooo I CAN'T WAIT FOR SCHOOL TO BE DONE.

...I've completely lost my focus.....

*Poof*

It's gone... Come back... I need you until next week!

1, 2, 3 (oh... and 4)

1) I can't wait to go bowling on Wed. I'm going to kick his butt...

2) I can't wait to finish this paper...

3) I can't wait for CHIRSTMAS BREAK! Woot

4) It turns out I'll be here for the next semester. So even though I was ready for a change it will be nice to be at SUU.

:P

Okay enough of that... I MUST focus!

YUM Yum Pumpkin

So I just made some delectable pumpkin butter.

It's amazing with:
-Ritz crackers
-Hot chocolate
-Bascially anything.... it's AMAZING


Pumpkin Butter
3 1/2 pumpkin puree
2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup apple cider
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp nutmeg

Cumbine all ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, 40 min until thickened. Stir Frequently. (stir a lot)

Definately... NOT

Have you ever seen the movie "Definitely, maybe."?

The basic idea of the movie is: Man and woman got married and had a little girl. Man and woman decide to get divorced. Little girl wants to know how her mother and father fell in love (undoubtedly she hopes to remind her father why he fell in love and that he should fall in love again.) Father decides to tell the girl the story of how he met and married his mother, but he tells the girl she has to figure out who her mother is.

Near the end of the show there is a scene in the park when the girl figures out who her mother is. After it looks like the father and mother might possibly get together... it doesn't happen.

Moments later the father tells the little girl something that is PURE GENIUS. PERFECT, INSPIRATIONAL.... FANTASTIC!

As the parents are parting (symbolically and physically) the father calls the little girl back.

He pulls her into to a hug then says, "I never told you the happy ending."

And the little daughter says: "What?"

And he says, "You..."

THis is perfect! This is EXACTLY WHAT NEEDS TO BE SAID!

Then DISASTER happens!!!!! The movie continues and in what can only be described as a sheer CATASTROPHE continues untill the end of the movie....

Dear Writers,

WHAT were you thinking! I implore you to PLEASE explain your reasoning....

Optimistic

Mirror Mirror on the Wall (Harry Potter!!!)

I'm not going to Harry Potter tonight........ BOOOOOOOOO!!! Boooo Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I considered dressing up today but I didn't have time.... because I woke up late. Boooooooo!



Anyhow... changing to a completely different topic.

*easy transition with nice vocabulary and word choice... (because I can't think of one)*

I know this sounds weird but sometimes I wonder how well I know myself. I look in the mirror and wonder. Who am I really?

I'm not trying to be all metaphysical and such.... I honestly just want to understand myself better.

So, as strange as this may sound I've started to really consider what I like, what I don't like, what I want to do... and etc.

I've always given the excuse, "I'm too indecisive." This may be a plausible explanation but I'm certain I can narrow a few things down (movies, colors,.... bla)

Maybe I refuse to make these simple decisions because of the commitment. I hate to pick "favorites". Trust me I know this sounds weird. Or maybe I don't like the idea of getting generalized or stereotyped in any sense.


Random Me Tidbits:

1) Some of my favorite movies include:
-Stranger Than Fiction- Awww... Harold

-The Terminal - Love Tom Hanks!

-Pirates of the Caribbean - Who doesn't adore Johnny Dept, his whole persona in the movie...
I'd date him... ;P

-You've Got Mail - I love this sound track

-Notting Hill - I bust up laughing every time!

-The Blind Side - Amazing! Watch it!

2) My favorite songs are always changing. I relate to music and what ever my mood is, it's usually portrayed in my recent top pick.... My very thought processes are usually described in the lyrics as well... ha ha... and I barely started realizing it.


Exhibit A:



3) My favorite series:
-"Psych" (I'm watching it tonight after my relief society thing. Soooo excited!)
-Monk... I'm so sad it's finished... boo

4) You know all those shows about bridal gowns and prom dresses.... I LOVE watching them. Now wait a minute! WAIT A MINUTE! I don't love them because of the weddings. I watch the sales reps. I love analyzing why they are doing things and what angles and tactics they use. P.S. To be perfectly frank, most of them really aren't that good....

5) I'm realizing I have a mellow side. I use to always worry (okay I STILL worry) that I get boring when i like a guy. The thing is... I just like to be held. Don't get me wrong I am a complete social bug and I love going crazy but sometimes all the energy i have with everyone else needs to be recharged and so it's nice to just be. Just be there. Simply relaxed. Depending on how low my batter is depends on how quiet I'll be.... This also relates to how comfortable I am with someone.


The truth is I feel slightly obligated to attempt to entertain those i talk to.... So if I'm comfortable with a person, if I don't want to put up a facade... I don't. I can just... be. I can simply recharge.

It's Two Thirty Somewhere...

So... I'm running on two and a half hours a sleep.



Is it two thirty yet? I'm looking forward for some serious zzz's.

Dear Liz,
Let's not procrastinate any more.... Please?!?

Love,
You

Life has been rather fantastic recently! I love how Heavenly Father watches over me constantly.

Things to be happy and grateful for:

1) A boy chased after me yesterday because I dropped something. How sweet huh?

2) I've received several awesome compliments from people in the past few days. Thanks all... I appreciate you recognize I'm alive and appreciate me for being me :D. whisper* Just so you know... I appreciate you all for being you! ;D

3) I saw Becky reading my blog the other day. Hooray for people who read my blog! Thanks for listening (well reading) my concerns, frustrations and ramblings.

4) The test I just took and studied for all night went well.

5) Everything seems to be running well for my Relief Society Night! Come come! Thursday 6:30 at the fireside building: Zumba and chocolate. (I don't care if your not in my ward... ha ha).

Awkward...

So this last weekend was interesting to say the least. I really don't have enough time to write all the details because I've procrastinated for a test, which is sooooooooooooo unlike me. Ug! (Well recently it seems to be my tendency... booo... boo hoo)

I just got back from Western Swinging at my FHE (a basic activity a church does during the week). It was quite enjoyable and I was partnered with a cute guy from my ward. As my roommates would put it, he's a good egg.

Unfortunately during the learning of different moves, we learned this really awkward move. Anyhow... I think I'm still suffering from the trauma...

Ha ha... I was cracking up laughing the whole time because I was so uncomfortable.

*Deep breath*

Now to do homework.

Assume Smune

Dear Self,

You know what assuming does? Right... Right.

So stop!

Love,
Liz

One way Or Another

Alas... why don't things work out exactly how I plan?

p.s.
This facebook strike is killing me. Why is it that social networking is so addicting? Do I really care if someone tried to contact me via facebook. After all, if they really wished to contact me, they'd call. Right? Right...

Oh and in case you were wondering, Groovacious went great last night. I was super nervous though... so I messed up a few times. Next week I'm going to play a song I've been working on. ;P

Winter Has Arrived

Winter has arrived. If you hate it, don't blame me... I'm just relaying the facts.

I'm simply stating the obvious. But if your afraid of the snow or slightly depressed, let me cheer you up....

Just think:

1-Hot chocolate
2-Snowcones
3-Sledding
4-Snowball fights
5- Snowboarding
6- Cuddling in warm blankets... Mmm (while cuddling with boys is nice to, I'm just talking about wrapping yourself in a blanket)

Tonight I ventured out in the snow. When I'm feeling down being outside makes me feel better. However, I know being alone isn't always good when it's night time.

So I decided to go to a public park.... Unfortunately, people were making out... *dramatic sigh*

So I had to relocate and then... relocate again. *SIGH*

Anyhow so I finally was able to find a place where I could think and get away. Sadly I didn't think much about my wardrobe because I was soooooo frustrated.


Needless to say before I had cooled down mentally my physical body was well below room temperature and so I had to leave.

Psyched!

Soooo... I had a guy I trust change my facebook password so that I wouldn't procrastinate by getting on it all the time...

Sigh*

I apparently have an addiction, which I was all ready aware. However, I didn't realize the extent of my addiction. As soon as I had him change my password the other day I only lasted about an hour and a half before I had decided I NEEDED to get on....

Alas, lasting untill Thanksgiving is going to prove to be difficult.

Guess what fabulous show is coming back on tomorrow?!?

Psych! And guess what? I'm psyched! ;P

Impending Doom

Having feelings of "impending doom" is apparently a symptom of a heart attack.... just in case you were wondering.

So... watch this...

This is reality...



This is what happens when nerds get bored. I'm really impressed with what people can do with technology.... It really makes me wonder if all the pop artists can actually sing and how much is edited or computer generated....


And if you laughed at this... watch this... (sorry it's not edited)


This the "double rainbow" actual event...


P.S.
Beauty and Brains?


P.P.S.
So EXCITED I'm playing at Groovacious this week! I'm super nervous! Eeekk!

Why Have I Gained 20 Pounds?

How many of you have seen the movie "He's Just Not That Into You?"

Below is my favorite quote:

Why am I alone? Why have I gained 20 pounds? *Imagine voice of a fantastic African American woman who sounds like a diva*

The best thing about this movie is how in a general sense everyone in the movie expresses their true feelings.

They scream it. They shout it. They cry about it.

I think that kind of confidence is astounding!! It's one of the qualities I really admire in an individual. I wish I had better communication skills when it came down to my deeper thoughts....

I wish I had that kind of gumption.

The majority of us, as a rule, don't have that kind of guts. So we cover up or mask our true feelings and thoughts. We don't want to be vulnerable. We don't want to upset or offend.... What ever our excuse, we fail to express our true feelings.

Sadly we often don't tell those we are closest to the truth. We can tell a complete stranger about i.e. but we can't tell the actual person.

In the act of lying (or masking if you prefer a lighter word choice) to others we are lying to ourselves.

How often do we fall for our own lies?

What do you love about "He's Just Not That Into You?"? What is your favorite quote? Do you believe in the "rule not the exception" rule? If you haven't watched it... watch it...

I know I've made a shout out to this movie before but even though I secretly hate its honestly, its refreshing.....

I think.... *mentally grabs carton of icecream* (Mmm... I wish i actually had some.)

IF?!?

You know those occurances that happen in life and you look back and wish you would have done something.

You start to say WHAT IF...

Well my dear friends, I've decided from now on I'm going to attempt to stop "What ifing".

(Note: Attempt. I know I'm not going to master this for a long time... and maybe I never will completely....)

So I guess this means sometimes I'm going to be vulnerable... sometimes I'm going to get rejected... sometimes...

Oh dear! Do I really what to do this?

BIFF

So today I said to a boy: Hey let's go longboarding.

So we head out....

Boy says to me: Should we go around campus or some where else?
I say: How about campus? At least I can get over my fear of seeing people watching me longboard... Oh no what if I biff it?

And so the two of us carry on our merry way. Five minutes into our ride I catapult myself into the street and Harold (my board) flies like it has wings. I jump up instantly because even though my body is throbbing my pride is much more important. Ah yes, because as humans we are weak...

Cars are lined up behind me and the opposing side of traffic is at a stand still. Why? Because everyone has just watched someone sky rocketed in the air. Needless to say, I have battle wounds.

---Later I go on another ride... Please note, it's dark outside and there is absolutely no moon out... (8:00 p.m.)---

Boy says: We are just going to go on a simple ride. It's really easy.
Me: Are you sure? I'm really just starting and I'm not so good with hills.
Boy: It's a really easy ride. Nice and easy....
Me: Okay...
Boy: Don't worry there are declines but there are up hills that will make sure you don't go too fast. And if you get going to fast you can brake...
Me: Right... Right... doesn't he realize I have a problem braking? Isn't that what beginners are suppose to be gradually pulled into stuff.

So let's recap: He said it's was a nice easy spot up the canyon... he said it was really easy.... he said the bike trials were gradual....

Cough* So he said... I have one word... FALSE!

So we get there.... It's dark outside and I keep thinking to myself: "Liz, what have you gotten yourself into?" So we carry on with these rinky-dinky flashlights.... he was a gentleman and allowed me to have the brighter light but to be honest it still sucked.

I probably got going around 20 mph and that's NOT exaggerating. Okay maybe I am slightly, at least 15 mph....

Okay OKAY I'm not sure at all but let's just say it was freakishly fast. Man, I love a good adrenaline rush. And let me tell you inside I was screaming my head off....

Luckily I'm blessed and Heavenly Father loves me and watches out for me...

Halloween

( so I realized this didn't post a few days ago when I wrote it)

This last week has been rather fantastic. Granted it had that downer when I found out about my car... but as they say, "the show must go on!"

This last week consisted of procrastination and staying up later than was needful. It also provided some fantastic "me" time.

:)

The weekend was filled with friends, dancing, dressing up and fires.

Don't you love Birthdays and Halloween?!?

I didn't dress up on Saturday but in my heart I was. I ended up heading up to a couch burning event, which turned out to be quite epic! At the end I met a lot of people and for the first time experienced a HUGE campfire marshmallow. I'm telling you, they are ginormous. (It's been on my to do list for awhile.... :P I strongly suggest you all try it!)

This coming week I need to buckle down on some serious homework as well as my resume' and fill out internship papers. I most likely will not be attending SUU next semester so.... EEEEeekkk! I need to prepare for all the extra work that is starting to get thrown on me.

Decisions... decisions....

Sometimes it's rough becoming an adult. I'm always worried I'm giong to make a wrong choice and it will cause a huge mistake....

Speaking of being an adult, I've been 22 for a few days now. Shesh! I'm ancient! ha ha... Yeah yeah... don't rub it in. :P

Why?

Confusion is an interesting thing.

Why is it that, as a general rule, I have no idea what I want?



And why can't I figure out how to flip this photo around?

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

P.s.
I want a boy to "adore" me :P

Really Grand. Really :D

So I've been fairly good at accomplishing my to do list.

However, I've learned in the process I have bronchitis and my car needs a 1,00 dollar part. Isn't being an adult just grand?

Just grand....

NO REALLY IT IS GRAND! Just... difficult. Extremely difficult....

It's really okay though, I assure you. I know why I haven't been feeling good and hopefully this will be the last thing that I need for my car for a LONG time. (long long long time....)

Who's excited for Halloween (and my Birthday :D)? ME!

Don't you adore Maroon 5?

The End Is Just the Beginning

It's nearing the end of October...

This means...

MY BIRTHDAY AND HALLOWEEN!!!

I can hardly wait!!!!!!!!!! There is soooo much to do. ;D :D

To Do List (by Wed)
-Drivers License
-New Tires (Happy Birthday Me... from me.... poor pocket book....)
-HOMEWORK!!!!! (this should probably be on top)
-DR! Sinus infection... boo....
-Start resume'
-Order shirts and business cards for CCG
-Get Halloween Costume
-Long Boarding with Drew
-Organize Birthday marshmallow night.... :D
-Gym or Run
-Carve pumpkin for date
-Finish song (hopefully for Groovacious Wed. if not for NEXT WEEK... NO EXCUSES)

...etc

You might have noticed I map out the fun things I do. I'm one of those crazy people who actually plans on being lazy or spontaneous.... Strange? Trust me, I know. But I like to have things mapped out tentatively. (I also hate starting sentences with "buts" but... sometimes it happens)

I have a running dialogue in my mind every morning where I map out my day. School till bla.... home work till bla... ... play for break... eat... homework... bla bla....

I like to be doing SOMETHING and I'm not going to wait around all day for you to figure out if you want to do "something" with me.

All right I'll face it... I'm impatient.

So give me a few hours as a heads up if you want to do "something". Really is that all that difficult? The same goes for canceling (and I'm not just talking about boys).

"She's in her cute little hug me mode."

Today is a grunge/glasses day. Yes, I'm exhausted. Sometimes I dress down on purpose just because I can. I can't explain it other than I want the satisfaction of knowing I don't care if I don't impress anyone that day with my wardrobe.

Today someone told me. "I like your looked today. This is a new side of Liz..." After a bit of talking they stated... "It makes me want to give you a hug..."

Then later they explained to someone, "She's in her cute little hug me mode."

I'll admit I still don't know how to take what they said.... Isn't it interesting what other people think of us?

I actually quite like my glasses currently but I hate the restrictions of glasses. They are always such a bother, especially when they get dirty....

Someone on facebook posted something about the fact the only thing they are good for is a dramatic removal....

I quite like glasses on other people but my preference on myself is contacts....

Besides in every cliche movie the "ugly" girl becomes beautiful when her hair is maintained and she receives... (what?) CONTACTS....

It's either that generalization or the matter of intelligence. For some reason when you slip on a pair of glasses you magically become more intellectual.....

"...what fools these mortals be..."

Side Note: I'm so excited for when my orange juice will become slush.... Yum..

AAaaahhh choooo

Bless you... Bless you all :P

Random I Know

Random Facts:

1) I like when boys whistle and cat call. Most people don't like it... Me, I think of it as confidence boost.... Must be doing something right Eh? :P

2) I like to text... usually. Maybe because I like a reminder every once in awhile that someone was thinking of me. However, I hate the pointless text convos....
-How are you? Good. How are you? Good. How is school? (Really we aren't learning anything from these convos so... just ask me directly what you want) Text me and flirt or text me and ask me what assignment you missed. If you really want to know how I am... call me.

3) I wear earplugs to sleep.... I bet if I was to add up the amount I spend on them in a year I'd be depressed.

4) I'm the biggest pansy when I'm sick. Really I just want to be held and drink some delectable orange juice. Speaking of which I have yet to get some. Boo!

5) Facebook and Hulu will be the death of me! I can't seem to concentrate. Why oh why can't I do my homework any more? I don't know....

6) I've started watching Ugly Betty.... Go ahead and mock but I really like it. Guess I relate to the characters awkward, strong headed nature.

7) I'm really picky about when people touch my face. ...especially boys who "creepily trace your features" to show they want to kiss you. Yes, there is a difference between what is okay and what is creepy....

8) I'm really depressed about the lack of heels in my wardrobe this year. I have one pair... one pair! And they don't fit right so they kill me feet. I need some new heels stat!
It's too bad I'm so hard on things....

9) I'm ridiculously hard on things. I've broken phones... calculators.. computers.... I don't know what it is. I've actually made a computer blow up.... Perhaps it's because I'm from a small town and I expect everything to last.... Or maybe it's the fact I throw things around and expect them to be durable...

10) One of my nightmare reoccurring dreams is that my teeth fall out.... I seriously wake up in a panic every time I have it....

Soo...

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.....



Boooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

I'll admit I'm feeling better. But I just want to cuddle up in my bed and I haven't accomplished anything and did I mention....

Booooooooooo....

BLISS?!

People probably assume I'm narcissistic because I blog so much.... I just like to express my thoughts... so yes, OKAY... maybe it's a tad narcissistic.

However, you don't have to read, if you don't want to. :P

The other day I was discussing stereotypes with a group of people. Isn't it fascinating that due to media we have set images of "beauty" yet, we all complain they are unattainable. If we are upset with the definitions, why do we reinforce the fake images portrayed?

Most likely we don't betray the media standard, because we don't really believe they are fake.... We tell our friends that beauty is one thing while we hold ourselves to a different standard.

I've watched others, including myself, pick themselves apart to shreds.

Why?

Perhaps because as a general rule the human race is never satisfied. If it's cold, we want it hot and vice-versa.

When we look in the mirror... what is it we see? Or do we refuse to look at ourselves in the mirror...

Are we hiding?

I have the tendency to get absorbed with the troubles around me and try to take on the world. Then I ignore the other issues and I pull away from people.... I think it's an innate characteristic of a lot of people....

So I pull away and then I retract.

Guess what... I'M OVER IT


(the only thing I don't really like about this video is the guitar under that water. I can't help but cringe... poor lovely guitar.... Put isn't George just adorable... I know he's a cartoon but still... :P)

P.S.
Love these two...

ADDICTIONS

So I'm learning to longboard. It's quite fantastic, I think it's going to be my new addiction. I'm going to be soooo sad when it's winter and there is snow on the ground. I guess that's when snowboarding comes into play... it's just SO expensive. I guess I'll just have to find a boy who works at Brian Head this year. :D

Have any of you been longboarding? It works your calf muscles... no joke. I'm wearing highheels today and man... my right leg is tired. I know it's silly but I'm slightly worried my right leg is going to get ripped and my left leg will look all small in comparision. I know it won't happen but it honestly feels as though my right leg is twice the size of my left.... Ah! I'll be lopsided... ha ha

I'm also playing my guitar more. It makes me happy, especially when I notice progress. I'm still fixing my song and I'm starting a new one.

Don't you love the things in life where you can actually see a difference? PROGRESS!!

WOOT!

SOMETIMES

Sometimes I allow myself to get offended
Sometimes I get frustrated
Sometimes I buy boys icecream on their birthdays
Sometimes I have to present something to a group of woman (tonight)... and I FREAK OUT inside... because I'm not prepared...
Sometimes I wonder why I waste my time on things like facebook
Sometimes I procrastinate homework
Sometimes I realize I should fill out my graduation papers

....

Usually I sing
Usually I place on my facade when I'm upset
Usually I don't have anything in my fridge (at least recently...)
Usually all I need is a good boy hug when I'm irritated (thanks random stranger...)
Usually I go for walks at night
Usually things work out (I'm so glad the other day went well ;P)
Usually I push people away
Usually... I'M RIGHT... HA HA...

....

However, I ALWAYS wonder what people are REALLY thinking

So tell me... what are YOU thinking? Sadly, I bet most of you can't REALLY tell me... And why not? It's okay I all ready know... I don't want to know....

Obsessed

You know the songs you get obsessed with...

Here are a few I'm OBSESSED with currently :D (seriously I love music)

"Forget You"




"Goodbye Blue Sky"


"Banana Pancakes"


P.S.
In case you were wondering about the Groovacious update... I wasn't so pleased with my performance but oh well....

Live and learn... let go and move on. Anyway at least next time I won't be so nervous....

Plus yesterday was oober stressful so I forgive myself for not giving my all.. at least today is finally over and guess what? LIFE IS FANTASTIC!

I Adore the Rain

I love the rain.... I adore the rain. It makes me happy!!!

:D

All I need is a fabulous umbrella.... Too bad the one I want isn't in stock....

This week is a... big week. Let's hope everything goes well *crosses fingers*

I'm singing tonight at Groovacious tonight. Oh man, I feel nauseous....

Akkkkkk...

Synopsis

So today was an epic day... CONFERENCE*! I LOVE it! Saturday's session was grand to. I missed the afternoon session but I'll catch up soon.

This weekend was grand. Here is a brief synopsis....

1) I went to Vegas Friday after school.... fantastic! Why are Cedar guys such pansies in comparision to other places?

2) I was introduced to a new kind of icecream, which I adore. He was right... I loved it. I think I'm obsessed!

3) I went to my nieces soccer game. Way to be Sarah!

4) I had to cancel a double due to some major conflicts.... The girl and I planning thought the men's priesthood meeting was at seven rather than six.... Oops


5) Went with the girls to Wingers. Thanks for the pie Jamie! (He's so sweet!) :D

6) I've also discovered I'm a Pink Floyd fan. I remember a long time ago listening to one of their songs and thinking it was quite... interesting. But I've realized I really love them!!!

7) Went to a dance. It was fantastic! I love dancing.

8) (Today, as in just now....) I logged on to find this comment on my last post... considered deleting it... but decided against it.

"/this is without a doubt one of the most lame blogs i've ever read"

Post a Comment


My thought process went to:
a)You are always on the computer....
b) You secretly hate me and decided this was a way to lash out (I know that thought is a bit narsistic)
c) Ummm... you were bored and feeling irritable (or your just kind of rude... either way)

At first I'll admit I was pissed... I though one of those lame childish things, "I know I am but what are you?" I considered lashing out in a major way... (I decided this way works better. Please forgive me for being weak....).

Then I realized this person actually did read my blog and decided to comment but didn't have the guts to not be anonymous.

So...

Dear Anonymous,

I hope your life gets more interesting soon. :D

Love,
Liz

p.s.
Really your still reading this "lame" blog? ....


8) Excuse me but I have to go... I'm headed for a walk. And don't' worry I have a body guard ;D

*The General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is some of the most important regular meeting of that religion. It is held twice annually, on the weekends containing the first Sundays in April and in October. The April meeting is known as the Annual General Conference, and includes annual statistical and financial reports not included in the October meeting,which is called the Semiannual General Conference. Both in a given year have the same number, which is equal to the number of years since the Church was founded in 1830; thus the April 2005 meeting will be the 175th Annual General Conference, and the October 2005 meeting the 175th Semiannual General Conference.

So I quickly recorded this in my room.... It's kind of bad but one of my friends has been after me so.... Be gentle... ha ha.

Also... I messed up a few times so... um... i apologize in advance....


Okay... So the sound is really bad and my hair was kind of bugging me. Like I said... gentle....

Guess What??

Hooray for the wonder of things such as pandora....

Teddy Geiger: Hallelujah



P.S. Guess who's new song I'm totally excited for....

...MINE...

Isn't that fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I might play in at Groovacious next week (because I am playing there next week FOR CERTAIN... NO MATTER WHAT).

So... I might play what I have so far. But I'm really really nervous! It's crazy how nervous I am now that it's mine. MINE... I have a song.... Eeeekkkk! :D

Double the "C" Double The "S"

Success: Guess who's back.... ME!!! Hooray!!!

This weekend was over all a SUCCESS (except for in the homework region.... Boo) because...

-I got my car fixed. At least I'm fairly certain.... *cross fingers*

-Got my necklace that I earned from work. I wore it to church this Sunday. :D

-I hit up a few of the dances... which were kind of a pathetic turn out. However, it was fun to dance for a bit.

-I went bowling... Played and basically slaughtered who I was playing. SCORE! We played four games and the third game I got a score of 193..... I KNOW, I BASICALLY ROCK! :P Don't worry I was put into place when my last game I didn't even get over a hundred....

Guess I had to give the guy his man pride back after kicking his trash on the first three.... HAHAAH...

-I attended a training meeting for my calling. I'M SOOOO EXCITED! :P By the way, if any of you ladies have ideas for Enrichment let me know.... Also, what activities would make you want to go?

-Got to eat at the Pastry Pub which is always fantastic! And not paying is always a bonus ha ha.

-Bought a poster, which I adore! Seriously this poster captures my mood perfectly.... I'm not obsessed with Pink Floyd or anything but I love their poster image for their "Animals" cover... and I like their music.

Do you see the pig in the sky? That's right it's FANTASTICALLY BRILLIANT! And yes... I just said that....


-I had awesome inspiration for a song.... Heck to the yes! I decided to change tempos and I'm really excited... too bad composing is so difficult... ha ha I'm getting so impatient with it all ready.

-I went to the Volleyball game. It was fun but girls games aren't as much fun because there aren't as many people... (eh-hem.... boys...)

However, one boy did give me a Frisbee... thus... it was over all a success. :P

-I went to the movies with the roomies. I really liked it but I wish there hadn't been so much swearing, it really was unneedful. Oh well....

-I played at Discovery Park with someone in the wee hours of the morning and cracked up laughing the whole time.

-I watched a movie with bff Kelly. And in case you were wondering it was a romance (come on were talking about Kelly here :P). We watched Enchanted... such a cute movie. The only disturbing thing in that movie is when the bugs and rats clean the house.... Couldn't they have shown a shot of all the animals taking a bath in the tub before they cleaned. What about sanitation???? Come on people!


P.S.
If you want something to laugh at, look up "I didn't get no sleep cause of ya'll (Tanisha)". However, I apologize in advance there is some language but it's beeped out.

I've always wanted to do something in the likeness when people wake me up at night or early in the morning.... Ha ha.

Morning and Night People will never understand one another.....

Long Noses=In Style

Have you ever wondered if people just lie to you to make you happy or if they are telling the actual truth?

Is a white lie really okay?

Why can't we all just be honest with one another?

Because we can't.... WE CAN'T ACTUALLY HANDLE THE TRUTH....

So we lie...

We lie to protect others.

We lie to protect ourselves.

But in the end is it really protection?

....

...Probably

So for now... just lie to me.... I'd actually prefer it.

Phone!!!!

So I haven't blogged in awhile...

Tonight....

I wanted to play at Open Mike at Groovacious tonight but I couldn't because I had a meeting. Then I have nother meeting thirty minutes...

SO NEXT WEEK I'M PLAYING... No matter WHAT!

This weekend at Vegas my phone got stolen... and I've been dying with out it. Interestingly, Kelly had her phone stolen to... rotten luck...

(I'm 96 percent possitive I got pick pocketed but... I'll share that story later)

Now... I HAVE A PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!!!! And it's BEAUTIFUL!!!

I'm completely addicted to technology... maybe I should work on that....

VIVA LAS VEGAS!!!

So this week I'm going to Vegas! Heck to the yes! I'm headed up Tomorrow morning....

...Yeah!

Recently I've realized how much I rely on music. I love jamming out on my guitar to simple cords and just making up songs. There really isn't anything quite like writing a song to express your feelings... even if it doesn't rhyme.

I went to a concert last night where these guys played.... They are amazing! I love their edge and the piano combination is fantastic....

Of course the singer/pianist was attractive... as well.

:P

I'm a people watcher and I specifically hung back at the end of the concert to watch all the girls go crazy. Ha ha... we all are such suckers. Don't worry I'm putting myself in that generalization as well.

"J.Wride"



I loved their "Work of Art" song but I can't find the original one...

Here is a remix that was done that I quite like (but I liked the original one better):



The whole time during the concert I just wanted to get up and dance.... I really don't understand sitting concerts.... Maybe it's because I have a hard time sitting still no matter what I'm doing.



This year I plan on going to some big concert. It's on my bucket list....

I also have decided to play at a local open night event that goes on weekly. I'll probably only play once every month or so (don't want to burn people out of me).

This coming Wednesday I'm playing this song:

I'll admit it... I'm nervous.... Slightly starting to freak out it since I'm thinking about it now.... *GULP*

So Far So Excellent

This weekend so far I've:

Friday

-Went to an awesome Jazz/Rock band "Darren (something) and the Burgs)". They were awesome. I was talking photos for the College Newspaper "The Journal". It was a blast and I took some epic shots.

-Had a dance party in the parking lot.

Saturday

-Went and visited my niece and nephew and ate some delicious food Deb made. Thanks Deb.

-Went to a rodeo, fair and dance...

• At the rodeo I watch some crazy stuff like the watermellon contest. Contestants have to ride a donkey with a teammate and ride carry a watermellon.... HA HA. It's fun to come to a bigger city one but I was getting slightly restless near the end.
• Got to dance for a bit and rocked out to "Sweet Home Alabama".
• Headed over the the fair (First fair of my life! :D)
• Ate some Cottona Candy
• Went on some rides. Man I love thrill rides but I sure do scream!
• Squelled when a guy ate my roommates fish and drank the fish water. Poor fish!!!
• Was given three fish. I love you: Harold, Mufasa and Cord! We are setting them free today in a pond and I'm sure they'll be more happy in a larger environment than their current tiny tank. However I'll miss their fishy selves. *Sniff*
• Was given a stuffed butterfly from a stanger and called a "Turtle Dove..." Er... yeah. ha ha

Thanks Kyle for being so sweet (love the fish!) and for my awesome roomies! Oh man... it was a fun/interesting night.... ha ha....

Tonight

-We are celebrating Chenelle's 21 Birthday today. Woot woot! So I'm just killing time untill the fun begins. :D

It's better this way

Just a few...

PANSIES!!!! They all are pansies...

Today is going to be a stressful day but considering the frustration, stress and exhaustion I'm doing fantastic.

After all, I can J-walk (cough: not that I do....). I know that doesn't make much sense. Short out of the long is I was walking to my apartment the other day I saw this woman in a motorized wheelchair. I said hello and we carried a short conversation.

Really who cares about a few pimples or a few minor set backs? Okay I do, but I'm grateful for the reality checks in life.

I'm trying to play my guitar more, which is awesome. However I'm really frustrated because I've come to a complete stand still with my song. Sad day. :( Guess I'll start working on something else. I'm also trying to decide which song I want to work on for a cover song. Too many choices....

I'm going to reject

Can I just say this semester has been so frustrating and annoying. Yes, I'm aware that I'm only one week and a day into it, but I'm completely annoyed with it all.

I've been trying to figure out my class schedule. I need everything squared away so I can graduate this spring. Sigh*

Is anyone else having every possible problem arise?

And the next woman who asks to take photos of my, I'm going to reject.....

WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED

Letters to those who "Who Shall Not Be Named",


Who Shall Not Be Named, *Cough random boy in library*
So you just saw me sneeze in the library and I pretended you didn't see my gum pop out. I tried to stop it from rocketing out of my mouth but alas to no avail.

I watched you as you watch me stare at the floor where it had landed. And yes I noticed after I snagged it when I thought you "weren't looking" that you were indeed, still watching. Don't worry I didn't eat it, I simply tucked it away in a wrapper.

Just don't tell anyone I'd hate for it to go public.... like on the world wide web or anything. :P

Love,
The girl in the Library

UNAFFECTED

We relate to music because it expresses our souls.... or because it allows us to want to rise above.

Currently I'm diggin this song...

"[S]he just wanders around... unaffected." "[S]uch a tough enchilada"




I haven't been working on my song for awhile but I'm feeling the itch so hopefully some inspiration will come so I can finish it.

School is ridiculous. I feel completely overwhelmed but I guess you can sleep when your dead right?

I have to finish my last few days of work this week, fix my schedule, check out of my other apartment.... and NUMEROUS things.

What ever happened to easy transitions? Heck... just give my a really dramatic pause!

Chicken Nuggets

So today I worked all day... fantabulous....

Afterwards I went to McDonalds for some chicken nuggets with my friend to catch up. Seriously who eats at midnight..? ...me.....

Step One: Make certain cashier gives me ALL my change this time.....

Cashier: "That will be ... bla de bla..."
Me: (hands money to cashier and starts considering the last mishap regarding the 15 cent deliema) "Oh and I'd like all my change please." (smiles polietly)
Friend: (cracks up laughing b/c of course they know the story)

Step Two: Inform guys at delievery window that if their friend can't ask for a girls number himself he's a pansie and therefore, won't recieve our numbers... (In a teasing mannor)

Random faceless Pansy McD boy doesn't show his face... so his misses out on some digits (Yup, I just said digits...).

Step Three: Ask for extra bbq sauce, which takes delivery window guys a while because they're making fun of Random Faceless Pansy McD Boy.

Step Four: Ask for more bbq sause because two containers isn't considered "extra".... This still takes awhile because both delivery window boys are cracking up.

Numbers were still not exchanged.

Step Five: Eat chicken nuggets and catch up on juicy stories.

Step Six: Write really pointless blog... Simply for the fact that you wanted to blog even if you realy had nothing to say :P
.......................................................................................................................................................................
Random thought: Why is post office called a post office. Is it becase it's after you write a later? Post? After.... I don't know...

Sometimes

Sometimes I'm annoyed...

Sometimes I put a whole bunch of money into a car....

Sometimes the mechanic still doesn't know what's wrong

Sometimes my room is a complete disaster...

Sometimes I have to figure out where I'm living...

Sometimes I have to work a full week from 10:30 am to 11:30 pm from Mon-Sat

Sometimes I'm still annoyed...

Sometimes I have to write a talk and a lesson and nothing is coming....

Sometimes that lesson and talk is due tomorrow and it's only half way done...

Sometimes someone gives me free icecream pie and I'm still feeling sad... better but sad

Sometimes I verbally/emotionally throw up on my blog....

Sometimes the bite of the icecream pie helps a little bit....

Sometimes a few more bites make it a little bit more better....
.......................


A few nights ago I dreamed I was making a Star Trek movie. Strangly so it was suppose to be for a church thing (remember this is my dream). Anyhow we were working with a blue screen and I was holding a small model of the Enterprise. I was singing the song and I kept getting annoyed at this kid who was suppose to be filming it....

I woke up with the Star Trek song in my head for the next two hours.

School is comming up but do I have everything figured out yet? No...

Work is getting slower slightly slower. All the patrons who come into the shop, who I quite well know AREN'T going to buy anything are the current miglers. Every once in awhile I get a blissful customer who I know is... "well off" and it get's me pumped

Oh yes... and SOMETIMES I eat too much icecream pie....

I can't handle...
my room. It's seriously a disaster. Yikes!

I'm trying to figure out...
what I'll be doing after I graduate.

I'm craving...
chocolate and icecream. But really when does that not happen.?

In the last few days I've had several people ask me if they can take a photo of my hair. I know copying is the biggest form a flattery but i really don't want a whole bunch of people to have the same hair cut as me. Alot of the time it's older ladies to... really? Really?

I recieved...
my glasses! However they are so strong... my eyes are having a hard time adjusting. My last glasses were three years old... so the prescription was needless to say, very old. Some one whith out glasses won't understand this but... for the first few weeks new glasses always give me headaches.

I've stayed up past my bedtime...
exactly fourteen min...and counting. *sigh*

The More it Stinks

I have this problem. You see I am unable or inapt to utter one simple word....

..."No"

Two little letters, and yet I struggle at the pronounciation. NNNNNOOoooo

I first came upon this mental disability through my genetics. My mother can never say "no". I'm getting better but usually never actually say the word. I inform the indiviaul that "blah de bla bla... I regretably can not bla de bla blaaa." It's not like I tell someone I'm sorry but I'm going to the hospital or that I can't go on a date because I have to "wash my hair."

No my dear readers, I do nothing of the sort. I'm simply giving a basic reason instead of using the blunt... "N" "O" word.

However sometimes I need to be able to say that one little word and I can't seem to be able to. Alas!

Don't you love when someone is telling a story and they don't share the details.....

"This thing is like an onion. The more layers you peel, the more it stinks."
-George from Sienfeld

AAAAHHHHHhhhh (minor melt down)

-Today I looked into my bank account and wonder... where the heck did all my money go? (Oh right... my car)

-How am I suppose to pay for the problems with my car, pay for schooling, housing and STILL remain out of debt?

-One of my classes is counting for exactly zero credits.... (ER? How does this work) So that puts one of my scholarships on hold. And no one can fix it at the moment.... AHAHA

-My other scholarship is having a problem going through.... I'm at a mojor stand still.

-My living situation is still unknown to me and there are problems on both ends.

-Am I doing everything right so I can graduate this spring? Is everything under control?

...I feel sick...

On the brightside at least I didn't have to work today.

To Do List:

• Mailing address for scholarship ASAP
• Contact Professor Challis for credits for PR class
• Contact second scholarship
• Do I have to apply for a GPA scholarship here?? SHOOT!'
• Mail off letters
• Organize room
• Figure out living situation. Work through PROBLEMS..
• Determine budget for school semester
• Get car checked out... How much?
• Cry... okay not really, but I'm starting to freak out.

Fun to Do List:

• Lighthouse?

Marshmallows and Pennies

Did you know:

-They sell ginormous marshmallows now? Yes... they are at Walmart. They are called campfire marshmallows. I can't wait to buy some....

-The sheep tunnels in Cedar underneath WalMart are FANTASTIC!

-My glasses (as in for my eyes) I ordered STILL haven't arived.

I don't understand:

-Why girls cat-call other girls. Number one I'm sure they all aren't homosexual... so... why would they? Just wondering. Because it seems like every night some girl yells something. I don't get it.

-Why people scream at people when they drive by in cars. If you don't cat call a girl... don't make other noises.... Last night someone screamed "Baaaaahahaaa". ...crazy people.

-Maps. At least not very well. Don't give me street numbers... give me a landmark. :D

Do you know what's stupid:

-I went to a drive through the other night. I bought a small ice cream cone and when I was receiving my change, I recognized I hadn't received any coins. Doing a quick calculation in my head I realized I at least (AT LEAST) had twelve cents coming.

My friend turned to me and stated that the window guy said he didn't give me my change because he thought I wouldn't want it. Now I can understand if it was a penny, even two pennies I can understand, I can even understand if it was up to four pennies. But 15 cents? Is this guy slowly just getting tips because he keeps assuming people don't want their change? How dare he not allow me to make the decision myself!

So I turn to my friend and tell her that I rightly so want my change. She of course believes I'm being a diva and pulls into the next window where I will receive my ice cream. I then lean over after receiving my cone and bolding inform the nice woman. I would like my change.

It took them about 8 to 10 min to get 15 cents. I very well could have given him the 15 cents as a tip but because he refused to allow me the decision... well I HAD to get it.


I ask you what is the fast food industry coming to?

-whisper- just plain crap

Currently I'm just killing some time before I head over to celebrate my niece's Birthday. She is eight now! Crazy!

Today has been a lovely Sunday. I woke up late but I was only five minutes late. So I'm getting better at sucking it up if I don't get ready all the way....

So cough *I'm totally not finishing getting ready to go to my nieces Birthday party* Okay okay... I am. But come on! They'll be taking pictures.

My life has been fairly uneventful. So I've really got to change things and shake stuff up. I'm starting to feel a little crazy and bored....

Last night I hung out with a group of friends and we just chit-chatted until the wee hours of the morning. While we talking I was playing with one of my friends Ipod touch aps. It was this awesome chart that would play music depending on what boxes you highlighted. Some of the technological stuff they come up with is truly fascinating.

I went on a hike to a short canyon up by the bike trials (up here in Cedar) this week. It was nice and then we had lunch. I'm going through the sheep tunnels this coming week with someone, so that will be exciting. I also plan on talking to the major about the lighthouse ASAP, the problem is my work schedule sucks to figure out an information. Oh well, where there is a will there is a way. :D

I'm getting my hair cut so I'm excited for that.

Work is going swell. I sold quite a bit of jewelry yesterday, so I was rather pleased. I've been receiving some nice compliments, so that always fantastic.

My room is still a complete disaster. I've started cleaning thousands of times and then I find a way to better distract myself. The problem is I have too much crap for this small space. The problem is... my room really isn't even that small. It just has NO closet space. So I don't know where to stick anything so I'm STILL not yet completely unpacked.... And I have more stuff.... lame.

I have to sort through my clothes. I have all of these hand-me-downs that people have given me over the years that really aren't my style so i don't really wear them. The problem is I'm too cheap to actually pay for a wardrobe I really like.... Thus, I'm sure my wardrobe will always be part me, part not.

Closets are interesting things. People keep clothes they don't like for reasons they don't really understand or know. They keep Birthday shirts and Christmas sweaters they don't like because "So and so gave it to them." They keep articles of clothing that don't fit because perhaps one day "they'll fit into them again". I have this theory that maybe my torso will shrink so I can fit into some of my old clothes again....

Then you have people like me who are pack rats.

• We keep papers from high school because... well you don't really know why
• Study guides from college because maybe someday when your in your career you'll think, "Ah yes I wrote a paper on that... hmm... what year was that... Where did I put it?" -Cough: Yeah right-
• Little trinkets we played with when we were kids because well they have so many memories attached to them
• A broken camera someone gave you,which you keep hoping will magically work so you won't have to invest your own money into
• Old makeup that you'll use "someday", since you paid x amount of dollars and someday you'll use it for Halloween or something
• A curling iron because maybe someday you'll grown your hair out again
• And some -whisper- just plain crap. I mean... er treasures :D
