Things I miss.

1. Kids. Nobody tells you that when you go to college, no one is allowed to bring their younger siblings.

2. Holding hands. It's been a long time. I think hand-holding is more intimate than kissing...

3. Mint brownies. Have you tasted heaven? Because I have.

4. Concerts. If I had money (which I don't because I have to pay for textbooks that my teachers never have us read) I would go to Salt Lake every weekend. Concerts there are bomb.com...times a google.

5. My sister. She gets me. Even though she's half a decade younger than I am.

6. Rockwood Blvd. Fall is my favorite season and driving down that road captures the very essence of it.

7. Reading for fun. This guy in one of my classes was reading Freakanomics. I was jealous.

8. Diversity. BYU-I girl= Plain bootcut jeans with sparkle buttons on the bum with a shade t-shirt and black flats with tiny bows. BYU-I boy= American Eagle jeans with a knock-off polo and k-swiss shoes. Barf.

9. Shopping. Wal-mart anyone? Or K-mart?

10. Sharing my testimony. For a church university, there aren't as many opportunities as you think there would be...

Saturday is a special day...

This is how I get ready for Sunday.

6:00 am- Alarm goes off. I should wake up to go for a run, but a couple more minutes won't hurt. Snooze.

6:05- Alarm. My clock lies, that wasn't a real 5 minutes. Snooze.

6:10- Alarm. Screw it. Cancel.

9:00- Wake up for reals and try to look at my reflection on the back of my ipod to see if yesterday's make up still works for today. It doesn't.

9:30- Still in bed, pick up laptop to start doing homework.

9:31- Get on Facebook.

10:00- Do real homework and use the thesaurus every other word to sound smarter.

10:30- Go pick up our goodies at the Bountiful Baskets pick up spot.

11:00- Get home and decide to go tanning. Best 3 dollars I've ever spent.

11:45- Watch T.V. and look up recipes for oatmeal smoothies. All of them include bananas. Which are sick.

1:00 pm- Sit on couch. Get on Facebook.

3:00- Decide to take a shower and put on clothes that haven't been slept in.

5:00- Remember I have a date and redo my hair and make up and try on 50 outfits.

7:00- Date.

12:00 am- Home from date.

12:15- Go on a run because I feel too guilty for not going this morning.

1:15- Decide do homework.

1:17- Decide girl talk is better than homework.

4:00- Decide girl talk is better than sleeping.

It's on like Donkey Kong.

I registered for a marathon yesterday.

It's January 16th in Phoenix, Arizona.

I am going to rock this bit.

Marathon registration: $100

Plane ticket- $240

New running shoes- $100

Beating up my body so that I can get that super awesome t-shirt that says I just ran a marathon?

PRICELESS.

Rexbuuurrrrrrrg.

So much for being cute on the first day of school. My dear, itsy, bitsy, teeny, weeny city decided to be 45 degrees today. Can I just say that again? FORTY-EIGHT DEGREES. To top it off, I think half our city is flooding. While walking home from my last class it started to pour. I had a sweatshirt on but I guess I must have a massive head because the hood barely even covered half of it.

The rain made my mascara run all down my face and my wet bangs stick to my forehead. Needless to say, I was quite the boy magnet today.

Roomates.

I love them.

Our apartment is going to be crazy busy this semester. It seems like Spring was like THE time to make friends. Unfortunately, I wasn't here then. So I have only a few friends. But those few friends have bunches of friends.

Pre-first day activities

I think bad luck follows me. Actually I KNOW it does. You know how everyone says that things will work out?

Well, what if they don't? Then what.

Then nothing. That's what.

I haven't been able to find a job in Rexburg and believe me, I've tried. I'm not one of those people that sits around waiting for the perfect opportunity. I think I walked into every single business in Idaho and Rigby and either dropped off a resume or filled out an application. I also sent 14 e-mails out inquiring about jobs I found online. Still, no luck. I suppose it's not the end of the world. Sure feels like it is though.

On the plus side! I will now be taking 20 credit hours- the maximum BYU-I allows you to take. Maybe the big guy up there wants me to take extra classes this semester so that I will spend extra hours in the library. And then there I will meet my soulmate (yes, I believe in soulmates- emphasis on the plural) whilst withering away under massively expensive textbooks, that I wouldn't have, had I found a job, and be married for eternity by Christmas. HA. Now that is one hilarious thought.

Dum Dum Duh Dum...

I shall blog about my new roommates and classes when school actually starts and my heart attacks begin. Peace out, boy scout.

All people over 40 need glasses.

The lady at the store today thought my necklace said 'taco'.

YES lady, I love tacos SO much that I paid to have a necklace made in their honor!

It really says T&Co.

As in Tiffany's.

As in I really I hope I did not just pay an arm and a leg (and pretty much all 20 digits) for a necklace that people think is a tribute to mexican food.

For everything else, there's Mastercard.

I feel like being a grown- up has made me slightly boring. I used to sneak out. I used to eat ice cream until I got sick. I used to spend my money on over priced, yet devilishly stylish, clothing.

Now, I tend to go to bed in the single digit hours, I madly count calories and I spend my money on things like Introduction to the History and Philosophy of Education textbooks. Gross huh.

So. I am going to devise a plan to hopefully cancel out all this grown up, responsible-y (Shakespeare made up over 160 words in his writing, so I think I'm allowed to, too), I- live- in- a- town- where- I- can- count- the- population- without- even- using- my -toes, shiz.

International Language Programs! Dun da da duh! I'm going to start saving money to go to some place in China that I can't even pronounce so that I can teach english to children.

Airfare and program costs- $2,500

New clothes and supplies for trip- $500

Food/Entertainment for the 4 months I'd be there- $1,500

Going on a long overdue adventure- Priceless.

Discovery channel, here I come.

Laci vs. Wild.

This one time... at band camp....

No not really at band camp. That's just a line from a movie I haven't seen.

But this one time (for reals) my Grandma told me that if she could have one food for the rest of her life, she would have toast.

This is what's been occupying my thoughts this morning. What would I have? Obviously in this situation we would erase all the health issues. So if I didn't have to eat out of the 5 food groups and the food I chose didn't have calories... I think I would go with...................................

cookies?

Yep, cookies.

Oh and since I go back to school in a couple days, I'm just going to prepare you for mind blowing posts. Because my life will be a lot more interesting then. I hope.
