So-Cal...So-NOT.

So I just looked at the cost for my masters program and I am still trying to scrape my jaw off the ground. EFF. Eff the cost of tuition! Side note, I find it really funny that I absolutely do not like Southern California and here I am planning on going to USC for my masters! Funny how that works. At least I won't be in SoCal for it.

Id-Wyo-Ut

I am excited. Whyyy am I excited you ask? Well, I may not be going to Vegas with my best friend and the boys like we planned next month.. but.. I am going to Idaho! Ha! No Vegas, no laying by the pool, no walking down the strip and drunkenly pinching random dude's butts and no free drinks for only betting pennies.. Oh how I love Vegas.. But alas, I am going back to Idaho to see some fam and show the bestie around.

It will be nice to get outta town for 5 day weekend, even if its just to Poky. The nice thing is, we can go to Jackson for a day and check out the hot cowboys and the neat little shops and be total tourists. Then we can also go to SLC for a day as well and make fun of the funny underwear all the Mormons are wearing (no offense).

I am excited for Wyoming the most. Nothing beats Jackson and the beautiful Tetons. I am excited... Did I mention that before?

Vegas can wait, in fact it is just gonna have to wait a long time.. cause we are doing Mardi Gras in New Orleans... This might get a little crazy with Josh and Derek in tow but it will be ah-mazing.

Primal-Paleo-CaveWOMAN.

So I totally want this shirt. Like its not even an option. Except mine should be 70% instead of 80%.. who are we kidding, beer is def not paleo.

 

But on a serious note, I really do love paleo way of eating. I feel great.. I eat great.. I look great (toot tooooot!-That's the sound of my own horn).

FLYING MONKEYSSS!

Ok, so I never do book reviews.. I find it too time consuming and can't write it out without ruining the book for everyone else. I will mark how many stars I think it deserved after completion though. But here is my rant about the books I have been reading lately.

I have found this new love and appreciation for the NA and self published books. The main characters are around my age and can be easily relatable. Oh you're 25 too!? AND you're trying to thrive in this world as a adult!? Woop! There's TWO things in common right thurrr. BUT what I do not find in common are these mushy-unrealistic man/boys that are rich, shmexy and all consuming-firey-love to the main chick.

Some of the things they say, oh lord.. "Before you, there was no feeling.. there was just darkness.. you lit a fire in my heart and brought me back to life.." Blah blah blah barf. THEN they say it during sex to boot! SERIOUSLY? I feel like I am going to throw up and never have I ever met a man/boy (lets face it- they're not real men) that can think a coherent thought during the bing-bing, let alone when you're just hanging out. And whats with all the growling they do? Are they animals? "He let out a growl before he took off..." Rawr baby.. rawr.. not. The lovey-dovey stuff is really just my complaint in it all.. Oh and the fact that these man/boy characters are sooo possessive! If I told any of my boyfriends I was going out to the bar with a group of friends, they'd be like see ya laterrrr. No questions asked, no limo rented.. nada. And we cant forget how none of these girls need any hygiene maintenance? Legs always shave? Check! Breath always amazing? Check! Smells like Lavender and vanilla? Check! Ummm yeah not me.. nor any other girl I know.

Even with my complaints, I have read some pretty awesome books. The Oppurtunist? Amazing.. then the second book to it? Dirty Red? She be evilllll.. third book? Love dovey schit and christ almighty just stop being retarded you characters! He loves you, you love him, crazy stalker ex is gone and the perp is in the jailhouse.. just quit your bitchin' already and do something about it!

There's my mini rant.. Now I feel like I need to go read a good Stephen King novel...

Anatomy, Physiology and.. baby showers?

You know it is going to be a long day when... your anatomy book is sitting on your desk at work and your warehouse manager asks to flip through it to look at dirty pictures. NO you may not use my very expensive text book to look at pictures of naked women!..orrr men?

Once again, new term of school has started! I passed the dreadful chemistry class without any incidents of my own.. Although a guy did spill hydrochloric acid on my hoodie..that was fun.

I think A&P assignments that are 73 questions in length and only worth 10 points total is a sick, sick, sick torture method inflicted on students. 10 POINTS!? I stayed up till 1 am finishing an assignment that will only get me a whole 10 points. Towanda!

On a brighter side, I am glad the baby shower I hosted for my friend is OVER. I love her dearly but the next kid she pops out, someone else is taking dibbs on the shower. I really didn't think baby showers would be that time consuming! Especially when all I said was that I would help with the shower.I also believe that we are all adults here, why the hell do you need prizes when you guessed how much yarn it would take to go around a huge pregnant belly?? I think a high five or hey sweet guessing abilities would have sufficed. Nothing like a few cheesey baby shower games to get the blood flowing! None the less, of course it was a success and it was a blast. I can't wait to meet little Avahlyn Elizabeth!

Chemical Burns

I have decided Chemistry class on a Saturday morning at 8:00 am was invented by a mentally derrainged individual out to get the poor working college students. On a brighter side, I have not burned down the chemisty lab room nor have I caught myself on fire...yet. I still have 5 more Saturdays of torture so there is room for accidental pyrotechnics or chemical burns.

Also, I think it has been decided that for my birthday I will be dressing up as a questionable looking Mrs Santa Claus and joining in with hundreds of other questionable looking Santa Clauses. What? WHY you ask?! Its the anual Santa Pub Crawl. What better way to spend my quarter of a century old birthday by joining in with hundreds of drunk Santas and going to 20 different bars in Portland!? I can already here the jingling of sleigh bells to the tune of christmas carols, drunken sluring singing of said carols and clacking of knee high boots that kill your feet. I cant wait..

And just because it is almost Halloween and it is after all, one of my favorite holidays...

On Halloween...each neighborhood Glows so friendly, warm and good! Yet every town so safe and sleepy Has its side that's dark and creepy... Within these shadows -- dark and rotting, Lurks a mind perverse and plotting. Eye of this... skin of that, These potions perk in seconds flat! CURSES! Children having fun...?! Surely something MUST be done. Heartless, hateful, tempting, truth-less. How can one witch BE so ruthless? What happens next...? Must not be seen, Just go enjoy YOUR Halloween, No bumps in the night, no witches to visit... Nothing wicked is coming YOUR way now -- . . . or is it?    --- yup totally stole that from an E-Card. Go me!

Yup I did it again

That's right, yours truly started something and didn't finish. WHAT!? Yeah it happens all the time. I am beginning to think I should make a profession out of it. Then again, I wouldn't get paid because I wouldn't be finishing it..

So of course I am still unemployed... but wait! What's that? I went back to school! Of course not to finish the degree I had started. I actually changed my major again. Go me!

Something also changed during my sabbatical, I got myself a real boyfriend! So I had to say goodbye to my last boyfriend. You remember him right? Tall, tan, smoothe... goes by the name of Jose Cuervo and only costs me $15.95 for every 1/5th dose I need of him. My boyfriend is kind though. He still let's me visit him from time to time though. He said something about how it makes me easier... maybe. That's ok too. The only thing that bothers me about is that he wants me to share! SO RUDE! I tell him he is not allowed and that it is gross and i refuse to share another man with him. Jeez, what was he thinking?

Anyway, I'm off to let my head snuggle with a nice, warm body of a pillow.
