Word Play

This is what my little brother wrote on a piece of paper during devotional:

Satan is a nobody! Get it?

If you don't get it, think really really hard.

Quotable Teachers

I love when my teachers are quotable because it makes the topic more interesting to me and I pay attention better because I can relate to the teacher on something, even if it's not entirely related to the subject. This morning in my New Testament class my teacher said the following in a somewhat sarcastically distressed tone:

"Guys, I want you to know that as you get really old it gets rough."

Well, as long as that's established it looks like I no longer have to worry about things right now. :P

Physics-al Exhaustion

Physics makes my brain hurt! Seriously, all my mind power is focused on the problem that once I'm done with the homework I'm tired. Crazy.

What? There's a football game?

So I was trying to call someone from my church so that she could pick the song we were going to sing since she's already going to be the pianist and I called her and there was a bunch of noise in the background. I was like, "seriously? can't you find a quiet place you just answered the phone!?" To my surprise, she said she couldn't hear me because of the football game. "What?! There's a football game?" I took note this morning to wear my burnt orange longhorn shirt and my longhorn earrings in celebration of the UT game today, but I had no idea there was a BYU game today. Like I said in an earlier post, I have no school spirit. Bahaha! Confirmed today on the phone with the chick from my church.

honestly, I was trying really hard to figure out what the heck she was doing or where she was with all that background noise. it never occurred to me that it would be the BYU football game. HAHAHAH!

Blogging Buildup

It's kind of interesting that my amount of blogging increases whenever I am studying for an exam. I honestly just have to take a break from studying every 20 min or every hour because I have so many things going through my brain. It's my little outlet to let my brain drain and then I can think clearly again and proceed with my studies.

I'm currently sitting in the fishbowl of the Benson and I am taken back to memories of freshmen year and studying for Chem 101 and Chem 285. Oh the joys of being a pre-nursing major. *cough* Thank goodness I'm a PDBio major now. Go nursing, but PDBio rocks!

My break session right now currently consists of a does of "Daylight" by Matt and Kim and "Electric Feel" by MGMT.

Walking

I totally walked from my kitchen sink to my fridge on Thursday night without any crutches! I know, it's pretty amazing and my plan is to be without crutches next Thursday. Let's see if my body will cooperate :)

testing center rehab revisited



I went into the testing center for the second time this week and I left with a much more satisfied feeling. I think reading "Perfect Score" on the testing center tv is an exhilarating feeling and my friend thought so as well and so he bought me ice cream from Cold Stone. If good test scores are followed up with free ice cream and playtime with my friends, I think I'll do it more often :)

Although, I enjoyed the quality time I wasn't really a fan of the ice cream flavor. I really am just not a fan of Cold Stone because it is no Amy's Ice Cream and no Blue Bells. Well, I will just have to make due with the lack of good ice cream in Provo until I return to the wonderful ATX in December. Only a few months away :)

Glee

new show is retarded. in the first 30 seconds i was already put to sleep.

Pretend Twitter Updates


My fingers feel like they're going to fall off from all the crutching. Im guessing arthritis will feel like this in my hands if I ever get it.

My left foot pulsates every now and again and it feels gross! Almost like my grafts are going to pop off from some kind of accumulated fluid down there.

It's been confirmed - My locker food storage is out. Lame.

I wonder what movies are playing in the dollar theater.

I think after I eat dinner I'm going to reserve myself a room and study with a humongous white board. happiness!

continued musings...

I just finished studying the material in chapter 2 for my financial management class and now my brain needs a break because it's overflowing again.

1. i want to eat something...but i don't know what and im not inclined to crutch around right about now
2. i've seen too many people on campus wearing orange - mostly boys wearing orange polos. eww.
3. the inscription of my name on the back of my graphing calculator reminds me of my old chemistry teacher from my sophomore year in high school. i can still hear ms. cohlmia's shrill voice yapping about stoichiometry.
4. i think i can wear my red pumas again on both feet
5. i want to watch an asian fighting movie
6. my outfit today is wonderfully atrocious
7. i think i forgot to replenish my snack stocks in my locker. boo.
8. i've consumed about 4 chicken sandwiches within this past week. mmmm
9. i need to repaint my nails. let's go black.

Pensieve of Library Musings


Dumbledore: "I use the Pensieve. One simply siphons the excess thoughts from one's mind, pours them into the basin, and examines them at one's leisure. It becomes easier to spot patterns and links, you understand, when they are in this form."
Harry: "You mean... that stuff's your thoughts?"
Dumbledore: "Certainly."


1. wednesday i took a nap before my PDBio 120 class and the writing on my left hand ended up on my forehead
2. doctor rose said i can put wt on my foot because the skin graft is growing nicely. ^-^
3. my sleeping cycle gets all crazy when im on drugs or im in post op mode - usually i sleep in three hour increments or i don't go to bed until really late
4. frozen strawberries sound good right now - thank you chairlift
5. i want a pair of charoal pants - this guy walked past me in the benson and had some on
6. i need to thin my hair out - who cares about volume and thickness
7. i have to pay $5 to take my test - gay!
8. writing in purple makes studying exciting
9. i should probably pick up my guitar this weekend
10. my hair looks much better parted on the right side - im back to the beginning. momma knows best

Mourning My Former Life

Since my car accident I've had to work over time to keep a positive attitude and push through this seemingly endless trial from God. Well, yesterday I've decided that although positive attitudes are good I need more to keep going through this ..... hell fire.

I've thereby decided that from this day, Wednesday September 16th, forward I will wear at least one black article of clothing until my foot is recovered. As Blair Waldorf said after the Gossip Girl slam from Chuck Bass, "I don't want to go to school! I'm mourning my former life."

Testing Center Rehab


When you come out of the testing center and you're feeling like...well you fill in the blank, the following has proven to cure my ailments:

1. quick stop for fast food - chicken sandwich, fries and caffeine (preferably Dr. Pepper or Mr. Pibbs)
2. spew your frustrations to your sister and vent (hand gestures may be involved)
3. sit on a very comfy couch
4. watch lots and lots of Gossip Girl

School Spirit?

Today in PDBio this girl asked me if I was going to the BYU football game this weekend. I laughed and said no and she followed up with "Oh, are you not into football?" I promptly responded with, "It's not that. I mean I'm into sports, but I just have no school spirit." Honestly, I'm not a fan of wearing BYU tees or anything with a Y unless I have no other clothing left in my closet and if it's spirit day at work and I get to wear a t-shirt. Nevertheless, I am a fan of UT's (University of Texas) colors. Burnt orange just looks good on me :) and as far as Texas football goes, I'm rather fond of it just don't expect me to know who we're playing this weekend or the stats of the players. I will give you commentary on the football equipment, player hairstyles or accents and fan attire. Go Team.

Let me just tell you, it was amazing when I found out that the line of scrimmage is not a yellow line on the actual football field.

Mantra

There is no try. There is only do or do not.
