long time, no blog

well, well, well. summer finally came to a depressing end, and school has slumped back into session.
i'm living in an apartment just south of campus, and it's sooooo conveniently close. nothing gives me greater joy :D
except for the fact that my best friend is getting MARRIED! what is the world coming to? i can't believe it! i've been so tight with carah since 8th grade and now she's engaged. pretty much, i'm being ditched for a much taller, older boy.
marriage terrifies me. but apparently it isn't as fearsome to carah.

i went to the utah state fair rodeo on sunday with elena. i love rodeos!
it was really fun. elena was explaining the "hotness levels" of all the guys who compete. there's the bull riders, team ropers, cattle wrestlers, etc. each has their own level of attractiveness--according to elena.

well, i must finish my essay for biology now. however, this has been a very cathartic distraction session. i have a feeling there will be many more to come this school year...

expuhlosion, five beautiful rings and TMJ

i am going to EXPLODE because i am feeling so many emotions right now.

man, life sucks.

and--on top of everything--i have a sunburn and look like a tomato.

but the olympics are officially the coolest thing since sliced bread. well, technically they came before sliced bread, but whatever. michael phelps is seriously an alien sent to earth from some crazy water planet. and i think that lochte swimmer guy is totally cute.

it has recently come to my attention that i have TMJ disorder, a.k.a. lockjaw. my jaw totally clicks whenever i chew, talk, or even just move it for fun. my TMJ discs are out of place or something...? anywho, at the dentist two days ago my jaw totally locked on the little x-ray plastic stick the nice dental assistant lady asked me to bite down on. i felt really bad for her because she couldn't get it out of my mouth. but i felt even worse for me, who was experiencing a pain no human should ever have in their mouth.

but, back to my explosion. i am freaking pissed off. i think i'll go cry now.

$6 jeans and hot flare pants

i was late to work yesterday, but i have a very good excuse. i work at tie one on, the tie store in the university mall. as i was walking through the mall to get to work, i walked past pacsun and happened to notice a huge "70% off" sign. so i went in, tried on some jeans, but realized there wasn't a price tag. i decided to take them up to the register anyway, and it turns out they were SIX DOLLARS. $6 jeans!

what a beautiful thing. nothing makes me happier.

last night i went to a sweet abba concert. man, i wish i had been a child of the 70's. those songs are so great.

IT'S JULY! and sad disney movies.

IT'S JULY!
oh my july is the best month in the world, for these reasons and more:

5. i'm not in school. school=the devil
4. the weather. in july, we have that lovely, roasting sun which burns me to a crisp. however, i like looking like toast.
3. the holidays. namely, the fourth of july--which is my favorite holiday EVER. for practically all of july there are holidays which give you the excuse to blow things up with wonderful fireworks.
2. you can do all sorts of things outside. it's warm enough and the sun doesn't go down until late, so biking, boarding and swimming are always an option.
1. and other reasons that i probably just can't think of right now. but trust me... they exist.

last week at work my friend and i decided that the two most tragic disney movies are bambi and the fox and the hound. why on earth any child would enjoy these films is beyond my mental capacity.
