Here I Lay

I am trying to not throw up. I didn't think I was this sick. I went to class all day and stuck it through, just because I could. Then the moment my last class is over: BAM!! I start feeling more sick. Not too bad, though. I went home and started eating some crackers, come to find out that eating is a bad idea. I do okay as long as I don't eat or move around a lot. Hopefully I'll wake up in the morning and be miraculously healed. I'm glad this is all it is. I was able to go to (and pay attention in) all of my classes today, and my class tomorrow is canceled. I can even do my homework in bed, so it works perfectly.

I have a confession. I love my statistics class. Don't tell anyone! It is going really well. I like being able to plug in numbers and get an answer. It's so easy! Maybe that's what I'll go into. I'm not opposed to doing more math. Hmm. Something to think about.

Life is good, isn't it?

Flight of the Conchords

I do love them. Here is one of my favorite vids:

I'm Not Crying

I know that there's an annoying advertisement on the top, but it's the best one I could find. It doesn't really distract from it.

Miters and Marines

Today On How to be Lovely I read a tip on how to make housework more enjoyable. I think it's fantastic! (Note: a miter is a crown, worn mostly by male authorities in Judaism and various other religions, but it is also something that women wore in ancient Greece.)

My brother Logan is home. Hooray! He got here yesterday, and I might see him tomorrow. If not then, then very soon.

If you're looking for a good laugh, this may be the funniest thing you see all day. I saw it and couldn't stop smileing for a very long time.

Dear Computer World

I would like to write a post, but I think I'm about out of power. I could go get my power cord, but I don't want to. I'll just try to type quickly.

School is intense. All of my classes require a lot of reading, probably assuming that the other classes won't. Thus, most of my homework time is taken by reading. Sadly, I do not learn best in this manner. I have to read everything more than once if I really want it to stick. But despite all that, I am loving my classes.

And now it's going to die.

Logan is Home!

My good friend Logan has been in Iraq with the Marines. Late last night I got a text that he was home! I wasn't expecting him to be back for at least a few more days. He's not really home home, but he's at least in the United States. I'll be able to see him in a couple weeks. He's like a brother to me. I have to admit, however, that we weren't always friends.

My year in fourth grade was a pretty normal one. Classroom, teacher, students. Then on one fateful day, there was a new kid. We didn't get new kids very often. This one's name was Logan Morlock. He seemed pretty normal, but before you knew it, we were having a fight about who had the bigger buckteeth. What a way to start out a relationship! From that point on we pretty much grew up together. We lived in the same little town and rode the same bus for a lot of the time. Being the same age and having the same interests, we saw a lot of each other. I think that buckteeth conversation had a huge effect on how we felt about each other because we didn't become friends until junior high. I think. It was a gradual process.

Logan and I know each other so well. We grew up together! We've seen the best and the worst sides of each other. We've been there for good and bad times. We've had a lot of fun throughout the years. We even look kind of alike, so sometimes when we are together people ask if we are siblings. We've come to the point that we just tell them that we are. It's easier. I love this guy, and I've missed him a ton. Welcome home, big brother.

Of All the Luck, Mine is Good.

I had a good day today.

First of all, I made myself get up at about 7 so I could get stuff done and not be rushed. I got a lot done! It was so nice. Even though I got up early, though, I was running late to class. On my way out to my car I realized that I had never turned off my iPod, so it had been on all night. If I couldn't listen to my music, how would I survive the ten minute drive to school? But lo and behold, my iPod still had battery. I got to drive those ten minutes in musical bliss.

I got to the parking lot - the farthest one away from the buildings besides the parking out by the Marriot. All of the spots were taken! I didn't have time to drive to the other parking lot, let alone walk to my classroom. But, wait. What's that? Two more open spots! I quickly took one and walked to class. Then I realized that I had forgotten my notebook for that class, but guess what! We watched a movie. It all worked out so well. I love it when things work out so well.
