Not One Of My Brightest Ideas...


Once upon a time I had like 150ish homework problems due in my math class. So I went to the library and worked on it and then I had to go to work. After work I started doing homework back at my house about 11:00pm...and worked all through the night...I didn't go to sleep at all, just went to class this morning and then somehow made it through the day until I had my math test this afternoon! I haven't seen my bed since I woke up yesterday and let me just say, I am exhausted. This was definitely not one of my better ideas. I didn't even get all of my homework done before it was due today, and I have been struggling all day long. I bought some "no sleep" pills from the Quickstop on campus (basically a caffeine pill and while I would not usually just go straight to that, I had no other choice today.) I took one about 45 min before my test and I am so grateful because I was awake and alert and there is no way I could have been without it. But I have yet to sleep because now I am feeling a bit awake and it's too late for a nap if I want to have any chance at sleeping tonight. I know the crash is coming. I also know that this is not probably not even making any sense! So having said that I have now been up for 34hours and counting...

Also I just have to tell you this adorable story! I was at work last night at the USU Basketball game and this cute little special needs grandpa comes up and starts talking to me! He was precious! I am pretty sure he thought I was someone else but it doesn't even matter because I just went a long with things. First he asked me how I was and what I had been up too and then he grabbed my hand and asked how my day was. I told him it was pretty good and he asked what "my boyfriend" had done for me. Haha this old man was appalled when I told him I didn't have a boyfriend, gave my hand a kiss, and then left to watch the game. Well, not even 10 min later he appeared at my register and gave me this Hershey's Kiss. Not only was it darling anyways but it made me feel so loved. Every time he walk past the store he waved at me and her was seriously just the cutest little thing! I was so touched at the love he had and his desire to share it! For reasons other than the holiday, I had a long and hard day/week and my night was totally made by this stranger who was genuinely happy, and who genuinely wanted to see me happy as well. It was precious, and something I will remember for quite some time. 



The sweetest little special needs grandpa brought me this at work for Valentines Day when he found out I didn't have a boyfriend!

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...

Just A Friendly Reminder:)

It's nothing new. We've all heard it before. "You cant judge a book by its cover" and "be careful what you say, everyone is fighting their own battles, and we don't know what others are facing..." and many more quotes and saying that tell us that everyone is going through something and we don't know, so we cant judge, we cant take offense, because we don't know what they may be going through. And what may be easy to you may be a challenge for them and vice versa so we cannot look down on anyone for what they are going through. Now this makes perfect sense to me because I know I certainly have trials and I have met some people in my life that have had their fair share of struggles. It's just something that I have always understood, however sometimes it isn't always the first thing on my mind, and because of that, I got my reminder this week. I have been feeling really upset about the way someone very very important to me has been ignoring...
