Long day

Today has gone fairly well considering I had no sleep and had to be up early for my 10 hour school day. These days are most interesting because it starts with the chemistry professor who wears long skirts with huge snow boarding boots and she must only be 5'4. She also has the tendency to use her body as an example as an atom or molecule. Then its on to human anatomy lecture where the male professor talks so quiet but he is a intelligent man. In that class there are so many people I wonder how many of us are tied to one another .. there is a tall butch woman, who I don't like much because she likes to shush people... she always wears her hair in pig tail braids.. I guess its the hair that bothers me so.
And that's half the day.. I go on to a two and a half hour bio lab then another two and a half nutrition class which is is fun because my professor makes faces similar to my niece..
Currently I'm in the last class waiting for it to be over.. but it won't be.. busy days always make me want to do more.. problem is I never get anything done...
So now I need to pay attention.

What on Earth?!

All morning CNN has been on and so often I have looked up from my computer to catch sentences between my chemistry assignments. So another war? More expensive gas  ( good thing I filled up already).
To be honest I hate watching TV especially the news because it's people and THEIR opinions so you don't ever get the full story.

When did it become okay for us to just bomb places? when people thought it was okay to bomb us I guess... So you pushed me and I'll push you back... pointless
And I'm not here expressing any political opinions .. I'm just here wishing we didn't live in this kind of world..

Worldy Things

We live in such a self conscious world. For example I was at the gym and in the locker room you see women constantly going to the mirror and checking out themselves and their outfits ( I admit I do it too). I mean come on we are only here to sweat, don't try to look cute, you won't achieve that. I hate that we live in a world where that is all we are "superficial". Every where I turn I am pressured to eat LESS, wiegh LESS, and be LESS. When I say eat less I mean I don't get to enjoy food the way I want to or eat the really good stuff. Wiegh less means that I have to be lean and beautiful to fit that society accepting look. And be less means that I should be a lady and not talk to loud or make to much noise.
-I don't know if any of that makes sense but that is how I see the world.

Today I read that one of my friends who is 22 achieved her goal of making as much as an RN just by experience by being a child support caseworker. It saddens me because I want to be a RN and I am currently in school for it. I have no income because I'm living off of my scholarships at the moment. And to keep my GPA up to maintain my scholarships I spend vast amounts of time studying. Anyways I'm not sure how to feel about that... Do I achieve higher?? Reach for the stars and all that jazz.

Green day

So as I am sitting in the kitchen with my sister in laws .. drinking some cranberry drink ... I decide I want to make green frosting. The result: a beautiful creation

Test Anxiety

Searching...

Here I am at Barnes & Noble searching for some inspiration and of  course looking at the cookbooks. I was initially looking for Italian cookbooks and ended up seeing the one from Julie and Julia "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" By Julia Child. I skimmed it only to see a lot of little writing and no pictures. Yes I am the type of person that needs the pictures otherwise I won't know if my food looks right.
Anyways after dropping an Italian cookbook that weighed 30 pounds I look at the bookcase across which was the wedding section. Wedding books, planning books on how to get hitched. I can't wait for my special day *imagining it*

So at the very bottom there were etiquette books and I picked one up that said "How to be a Lady". "A lady never dates out of desperation" Oh my goodness why would you?! "A lady never corrects others on their grammar". Wow I do this all the time, does this mean I am not a lady? I guess I shouldn't do that but I can't help to think that the person I'm correcting is going to go around and contintuously embarrassing themselves. Is this book for the women back in the fifties?
-Why are there so many etiquette rules and no one follows them? And should we?
My #1 etiquette rule would have to be "Say thank you"
 There are so many people who fail at this everyday. Not only at saying thank you but the other person saying "you're welcome" Both of these are essential things and should be used every single day.

Simply Stated

I have never written a blog and often find it hard to come up with words to say that will be meaningful, I guess i want it to mean something and not a boring "I love doggies" You know how people write on Facebook... it annoys me so much.
Anyways I'm attempting to do this and in the dining hall at my university where it feel like a million eyes are watching me (ever get that feeling?)...

I could no more be in a more confusing time in my life.

Today I'm stuck in a weird phase where I don't know what I want to do with my life and constantly feel like I'm wasting it and taking it for granted. I need some kind of intervention for the perfectionist and boring person that I am...
So every so often I try to spice it up. Yeah that is a horrible idea for me because it always makes me feel stupid. Recently I had "brownies" if you know what I mean and it was the scariest and worst feeling EVER. My advice to people on that is just say no, a natural high is 10x better and there are no side effects.

I created this blog about 5 hours ago and didn't write right away because I feel like there should be a point to it. While I pondered on that I read about Buddhism (random I know) and wondered how other religions are like. So I thought maybe I will talk about that :]
Who knows I'll just see where this takes me.
