  1. I am terrible at picking out fruit at the store.
  2. "New Girl" is possibly one of my favorite shows.

  5. Precisely two weeks until I am home.
  6. I talk about myself a lot, and should stop.
  7. Someone should really clean the dead flies off of the window sills.

Salt Lake, Utah (SL, UT)





In addition to eating my body weight in Thanksgiving delight, I also got the chance to spend time with most of my family. Since little step-sister is looking at the University of Utah (Gag me) my dad, step-mom, and step-sister flew into Salt Lake where we resided this past week. It was fun because we got the chance to catch up and shop around and work on wedding details. Can you believe that that is in almost a month. Kill me how fast time is going. Even though it was only for a couple of days, I really appreciated the time I got to spend with them. I also appreciated the fact that I don't live in the hectic town of Salt Lake, I am just fine with my cold little Logan.

Happy Thanksgiving!

                                                
Here's a few to wrap up the long wonderful break that occurred this past few days. It started off by me driving to meet the family up in Salt Lake and spending quality time with them. We shopped around, hung out, drove to try and escape the hectic life of downtown, and ate wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at my grandparents and then it was bye bye back home for them. This only lead me to the land unknown, otherwise called Riverton, where I stayed in the Baucom's lovely abode. This is where we relaxed, ate food, napped (a lot), met family and friends, and basically wrapped it up with a drive back to Logan. This weekend slash break made me realize a couple of things: one, I have many blessings and things to be grateful for, and two I can't wait for Christmas and going home! Tis the season.

I'm So Stuffed, I'm GrateFULL.



So the other night we went over to a friend's and ate at a Thanksgiving-dinner-before-the-dinner dinner. Which was just as cute as it could get if you were in a room full of strangers eating spaghetti instead of turkey. Hey, I'll take free food whenever I could get it. BUT it actually turned out to be fun, and we discussed all the things that we were grateful for, like a real family. It made me realize that I have a lot to be grateful for; including homemade Thanksgiving dinner. But in all seriousness, I can't wait for the holidays that are swiftly arriving, and even more the chance to see my family tomorrow. Yipee! Happy Holidays!

You Know What I Love?

When Geeksquad tells you that you have two viruses on your computer and it takes two hundred dollars to fix. And you know what's even better? When your gas light is on and you have four hot chocolate packets left in your pantry as your only meal for two days. Yeah, it's gonna be a good week.

Eight.

Eight is the number of inches of snow that will be on the ground tomorrow. It is also the number of months that the snow will remain for. Eight also just-so-happens to be how many layers of blankets I will have piled on me this weekend. Oh, and guess what else, it is also eight degrees inside my apartment because my lovely roommates like to play this let's-see-how-cold-we-can-get-inside-our-house-without-catching-hypothermia game. I swear, sometimes I just don't know how I will survive. How about we add a "y" onto that eight eh Logan?

Awkward And Awesome Thursday!




AWKWARD:
  1. Walking in heels to go to church only to find that you step off the ledge and roll your ankle, thereby making your fall face first into the snow and showing up to church wet. This is my life.
  2. When you go to grab your binder for class and stopping to realize that your hand is stuck on a piece of green gum that is stuck to your binder, then realizing that you don't chew green gum...
  3. Going to take a drink of water in class and COMPLETELY missing your mouth. This causes the ENTIRE bottle of water to spill all over your clothes. And making you look like you just showered slash went swimming slash decided to go to Sea World.
  4. That guy who walks out of the library with no shoes on. Hey buddy, I'm not sure if you realize this...but... it's winter. And there is snow on the ground. So I'm sure whatever you are protesting can wait, because you will get frostbite. Stupid People.
  5. Going to the gym and having the whole place full of white people. What is the only t.v. channel that is on? Black Entertainment Television. (Not that I am racist, just the irony kills me)
AWESOME:
  1. Having a meeting for church and before it starts Kaela and I got praised for being so nice and service-ful. It was so thoughtful, but then again I never know how to react to that...
  2. When a boy stands up on the bus so a girl can sit down. I swear, why can't all boys just be this nice.
  3. "I don't get why I don't get dates! I mean I wear a bra almost daily!"
  4. Talking to best friends. I clearly don't do it enough because an hour and a half goes by and boom, didn't even realize it. I can't wait to be home in just a few weeks. I miss my little buds. A lot.
  5. Registering until one in the morning last night. Why? Because it opened at midnight and the whole system crashed. This caused for one big scream throughout the entire campus. I heard it. I also can't believe this semester is almost over.
