Funny Day

Okay, I just have to ask...what is up with the over abundance of stupid government ideas that just scream disaster? People need to learn to use their critical thinking skills.

Anyway. I know I keep mentioning school, but I'm really enjoying it this semester. Yesterday I took my bio quiz on genetics...11/11, yeah I know, I'm awesome. And I got two of my lab reviews back, I got a 23/25 on one and a 25/25 on the other. I have to work really hard at it, but I'm really happy with my grade.

I've had a few good laughs today. First Amber told me her dream about me and my dad confronting our neighbors about parking in my spot all the time, apparently my dad screamed at them and I spray painted them in the face and we all ran away lmfao. Then I read the FML that Amber sent me, I was crying I was laughing so hard.

Today, I totaled my car. I flipped it over on the freeway and broke my collarbone in the process. I was in extreme pain and unable to move. It took the ambulance an hour to get there in rush hour traffic. The song repeating on my iPod was, "Don't Worry, be Happy." FML

Funniest thing I've ever read ever. I'm sure my mom thought I was insane when I could barely read the first part because I was laughing so hard...someone totaling their car and breaking their collar bone is funny? HAHA.

And then I read Jen's blog to see the picture lil' Joe drew of her working in sewers (she doesn't work in the sewer). That made my life, that kid cracks me up.

I already went to English and finished all my work in that class, then I went to Sonic with my mom for lunch, and now I have to go to my bio lab, then study for my sociology test I have tomorrow. I'm out.

Change of Plans and Walmart Trips

I think I've decided against the blue in my hair. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have blue in my hair, but it's just too much of a hassle and too expensive to have to bleach my hair and then dye it blue and then only have it last for two weeks...not worth my time or money. I'm probably just going to do a couple blond streaks. I hope I can get them light enough.

Monday was Nate's 22nd birthday, (he's old) I hope it was a good one.

Last night I took Paige and Amber to Walmart so Paige could get her new phone that she had to have right away, even though she's not going to be able to use it for two weeks. Me and Amber decided to stop by the photo center and make prints. There is nothing better than the automatic picture printer. Amber printed 64, some were pictures she took of me and derrick and others were pictures of us at the cider mill, or dressed up as thing one and thing two for a Halloween party. I printed portraits I took of my cousin's family over the weekend, the quality is amazing, I was pleased. Then me and Amber dropped Paige off at my house and we went to her house. We looked at our pictures and put them in our photo boxes, which I'm really excited about. I still have to label the back of them with the dates and everything, I'm excited.

I have a Bio quiz today that for some reason I thought was on Monday...wrong. It's today and I hope I'm ready for it.

I have lots of English homework to do, I have a paper due by the end of class tomorrow, APA format which I've never even heard of but whatever...I'm out.

Happy Birthdays and School

First I'd like to wish a happy 22nd birthday to my boyfriend Nate <3. Hopefully today will be a good day.

I have a bio quiz today and I really hope I studied well enough for it (I might cry if I get less than a 10/10). It was kind of an awkward test to study for and I'm not really sure what's going to be on it.

In other news, I switched my intro to child welfare class to a class about children with disabilities. I think that is a better choice for me since I'm planning on working with kids who have down syndrome. I'll probably end up taking the child welfare class in the future just not this year.

Also, my mommy helped me figure it out, and if I do really well this semester and next I could have my GPA up to a 3.5 by the end of this year. Magic number?

New Hair

New hair cut. You can't see the layers, but they're there and they look really cute. I also dyed it dark brown, not it's finally one color. I'm kind of questioning why it wasn't all one color to begin with since I haven't dyed it in many years but whatever. Once I get time to go shopping, I'm going to pick up some temp blue hair dye and add some blue highlights. This is probably my last semester without a job and therefore my last chance to dye my hair funky colors. I'm excited.

School Schedule

After a lot of moving things around, I finally got my school schedule in order. Looks like I'm going to have another heavy course load. I'm taking Basic Human Nutrition, The Art of Being Human (blow off class), Arabic 1, Principals of Human Anatomy and Physiology, and Intro to Child Welfare.

It'll be a lot of worth it, but I think I'll do really well and the end results will be worth my effort. And hopefully by the end of this year I'll be able to get my GPA up to a 3.5.

Fall Portraits and Happy Halloween

Today was a really good day, me and Amber went and took Joe and Jen's and little Joe's fall family portraits at the park. They turned out really well and I'm very happy with them. Some of them are a little over exposed or need some color correction, but that's nothing I can't take care of. I love taking pictures, it's kind of my passion. Amber was kind enough to let me borrow her camera. The wouldn't have turned out as well if I had taken them with mine. Hopefully I can get a job soon and buy my own really nice camera. After we took almost three hundred pictures, we went out to dinner which was yummy, we had fetta bread as an appetizer and I had a chicken wrap and fries for my meal. They also had really good lemonade, I don't know what made me want lemonade but I really liked it. Now me and Amber are going to carve her pumpkin and I'll probably end up studying for school while watching "Halloween" with her. I'm out.

School and Paranormal Activity

Okay seriously, I know I haven't blogged in almost a week. But I've gotten so much school work done!! I got most of my sociology project done, and I caught up completely on my sociology reading. I'm also caught up on my bio reading for the most part, but I'll probably end up spending all my free time studying genetics since I barely understand what's going on...P generations and F1 generations...whattt?

I decided to do my sociology project on child abuse, we had to choose an article that related to sociology and then make an, at least, five minute report. The article was about a study done that showed a link between child abuse and criminal behavior. My PowerPoint is awesome.

I've been pretty obsessed with school lately, just studying and getting stuff done and making sure I know everything. As of right now I have an overall 4.0 and I'd like to keep it that way. If I can get at least a 3.8 this semester it'll bump my GPA up to 3.25 and if I get a 4.0 it'll be a 3.35 which isn't amazing but it's better than it is right now. I'm really motivated right now, usually I get less and less motivated toward the end of the semester but I'm so pumped.

I saw Paranormal Activity last night with Amber. It was an okay movie. The acting was horrible, especially the girlfriend character, and it kind of took too long to get going, like nothing super interesting happened for what seemed like forever. But the stuff that did happen was pretty scary, I had a hard time falling asleep after that haha. 

Awesome Grades and Catching Up

Today has been a pretty good day. I started my new English class today and it doesn't seem like it's going to cause a work load over flow, so that's good. I also have to get started on my online computer class, the first assignment is due Saturday and I haven't even looked at the class yet.

We got some graded Bio stuff back this week. I got my lab report back, I got a 93% which was a little disappointing, but I'm not going to beat myself up over it, especially considering my 122% on my chapter seven and eight test. Yes, I know, I'm awesome. He actually marked one of my answers wrong but I was sure it was right, so I asked him after class and he corrected it for me, which made me happy.

Now I am going to spend the evening catching up on my sociology reading.
