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!

UPDATE

UPDATE: saying yes is hard, sometimes (a lot of times) I choose sleep over clean hair, and these people make my heart oh so happy! As I continue to give fully to my job and to the people in my life, I continue to learn more and more that these humans give me more than I could ever give them.  And that is completely worth it.

I Sort Of Hate Making Decisions About Life.

Sometimes I have to make decisions about my life. And those decisions are hard and they scare me and I don't know what to do. Sometimes I think I have an answer and then a few days later I am doubting and second guessing everything that I think I  have figured out. It's so not cool. And above all I can't handle that fact that I don't know what I am supposed to do! How do I figure this out? How do I know if I am making the right decision? How? How do I know what it is that I am supposed to do? My life is a tad jumbled and messy right now.

The Top TEN!

Okay so it's actually two different top ten lists but that's fine. Here we go. The top TEN…. Things I have learned this semester… 10. Even when school is hard it can be enjoyable. 9. Drives up the canyon can do a lot of good. 8. Sometimes I struggle with people. 7. People are more understanding if you just go talk to them about what is going on. 6. My brain is capable of more than I ever will understand. 5. Some days you just need to buy a cheesecake. And that's okay. 4. Taking chances=worth the risk. 3. Even though trials may be hard, in the end you will learn something. Keep going. 2. People can be major blessings in your life. 1. I will do absolutely anything for the ones that I love. Even if they don’t realize it. Things I did this semester…..(in no particular order) 10. Went snowboarding TWICE (this probably doesn't seem like a big deal but it actually is). 9. Sparklers up the canyon. 8. Tri-wizard tournament (scrapped my shoulder up pretty bad...
