Boy am I glad...

That I go to the University of Utah instead of BYU—I can go into class everyday without being worried that I will get called on to pray. I have the option of “regular” or “decaf” Not to mention I get to live in the middle of salt lake.

That I am a girl—Oh its gotta be stressful to have the responsibility of asking girls out on dates especially when combined with the expectation to pay and open doors. Me, I get to go along for the ride and enjoy (hopefully).

That I have the guts to just get outta there when it is uncomfortable—I have this friend (newly returned missionary) in my history class that I went on a few dates with and when he realized that I wasn’t going to be his wife he told me that we can’t be friends anymore… Well maybe in class. So today when I got to class and the person I usually sit with wasn’t there I decided to sit by him since he said he wanted to be friends in class. After about ten very uncomfortable and awkward minutes I just got up and moved. There is no point in sitting in class being uncomfortable for an hour and a half.

That the countdown to getting my braces off is nearing its end—I will find out for sure next week!

That my professors are really hilarious—My math teacher has an incredible knack for comparing any sort of math problem into and equation about food, a few days ago he spend the ENTIRE hour talking about rice. How I am going to apply that lecture to my life I will never know. My writing instructor has turning a class about writing into a black heritage class (yes, he is black. And he’s got the accent to match!) I’ve been in school over a month now and now once have we talked about the basics of writing. My History professor refers to Thomas Jefferson as “A super wonky guy” Enough Said. And lastly, my biology professor continually makes jokes that don’t make sense then she will proceed to laugh, very hard, at the joke no one got. Oh I can always count on an interesting lecture!

That I am a very clean person—I already have a good habit for picking up after myself. So now that I’ve got a somewhat messy roommate/sister all I have to worry about is picking up after her! Okay… I still get a tad annoyed sometimes, but I could be worse!

That I have a wonderful mother—Not only does she talk to me everyday but she is even willing to drive all the way up to Salt Lake just to take me to Costco. And she leaves little notes in my things that she brings to me from Provo. Oh it’s awesome!

That I own all 10 seasons of Friends—What a great thing it is to always have something to watch that you already know you love!

That I am able to talk myself out of a ticket—University of Utah students can ride the Trax for free. The trick is that you actually have to have a U of U ID card. I had one… And I also lost one. Twice now I have talked myself out of getting a $150 ticket for riding on Trax without either paying or carrying my ID card. Needless to say, I finally went and bought another ID card. :-D

That Amber finally has some free time—Now she can finish the third book in a sequel that we’ve been reading. I have been waiting for a while to read Mockingjay. Hopefully the time will be soon! 

That I have so many socks—I really enjoy being able to match my socks to my outfits. Kinda strange since I don’t even match my socks to each other but it works!

That two of my midterms are over—Now I can start studying for the next ones!

That TV shows are also put on the Internet—Somehow I think every show that I watch is conveniently on TV at the same time that I either work or have class… What are the odds!

That T-mobile has free mobile-to-mobile calling—The only people that I really talk to on the phone are my mom and Amber. Thank goodness we don’t use our minutes when talking to each other cause we would have a big problem!

That I have a brother called Jason—The only day on my way home from school I realized that I always call Amber and my mom, not once have I called Jay! So I called him. The conversation only lasted about a minute but he picked up the phone! That’s a good start!

That I finally read the textbook before going to biology today—Sadly this is the first time I have done this… I am definitely going to do it again!

That I am at least somewhat keeping my goal of blogging—Hey it’s not everyday but Its more than I have the past several months! Woot Woot!
