Oh hey guys, I don't know if you remember me... It's been a while. SORRY!

I haven't really been into the whole "document-every-minute-of-your-life" thing lately. I've been pretty busy trying to keep my head above water with this whole college thing. Turns out it's not as easy as I thought it was. Last semester didn't really set the bar very high. This semester is a lot tougher and I feel like free time is a rare commodity these days. Anyways, I feel like tonight calls for an update, so here you go.
Today was the 2nd of March (I guess it's the 3rd as I write this but oh well) and I'm really glad to be done with February. I've never been a big fan of February. First off, I don't like how the phonics of the word and spelling are flipped. It's pronounced Feb-YOU-Airy, but spelling suggests you should say Feb-RUE-Airy. (But you shouldn't do that because you'll just end up sounding like Scooby Doo.) It's like the word has a secret agenda or something. Secondly, this month decided that it get's to cut the corners and skip out a few days early. What the heck's up with that? Obviously February has some commitment issues. The third issue I have with February is the fact that it tries to compensate for being so messed up by offering the world a holiday for "love". Don't get me wrong, love is good and stuff, but really? Why do people need to set aside a day to bombard their loved ones with trivial heart covered gifts, assorted chocolates (there's usually only 3/12 chocolates worth eating) and showy flowers? It's not ok to pour out tons of commercial love on this one day and then save it all up for the next year. Love should be an constant thing. This list could go on and on, but I think you get the point. Hurray for March! I have a feeling like this one will come in like a lion and go out like a lamb.
So I think I've done a good job at getting my point across about how tough this semester has been. On the other hand, I haven't been doing the weekends justice. The weekends are what I live for these days. One has yet to disappoint me! Three weeks ago I took a trip to Vegas with Campbell, Moses, Krystle, and Kyle! This is us here standing next to a giant mirrored horse:

I look like I don't have a clue what's going on in this picture, which was probably true so it's whatever. On to what happened two weekends ago. Two weekends ago, I took a trip back home to visit my family. I had an the best traveling companion, Samara E. Jones. We had a lot of fun just on our way to and from Ogden! While up north, I saw all the kids in the picture above again (minus Kyle). We all got together on Saturday night to chill. While we were at Krystle's house, an inexperienced sophomore girl backed out of her driveway and side swiped my car. To be fair, there was a lot of wet snow on the ground and she more or less slid into my car, along with the 2 other parked cars behind mine. Whoops! I'm just glad it wasn't me. The good news is that her insurance will cover the damage, so Lucy should be back to normal in no time! Finally, last week I took a trip to SUU to visit my friends at Juniper Motel. I love visiting them, and we have fun every time. This time I got to meet Katy's friend Ivy and Katlin, and I got to see Dan and Nick as well. During this trip, we all nearly ODed on a 5lb bag of gummy bears, supported Katy and Pearl Toothy at their talent show, went to a crazy dance, and then stayed up until 9:30 am the next freaking day. They have this little slogan there where they call themselves "Beasts of the Night" and thinks it's really fun to deprive themselves of sleep at a normal time. Although, I do have to admit that we had a really fun time staying up!

I am planning on making another trip to SUU this weekend, so who knows what will happen this time?
The reason I mentioned the weekend was because tonight was like a mini one. It started out with me and Clay hitting the gym for an hour. Clay made me drink this protein power drink and it sucked because it made my skin all itchy. After the gym I met up with Beyonce and Toothy at Menchies Frozen Yogurt! It's basically a tradition now everrrtime they come to visit. Beyonce's friend met up with us there, and then we made an executive decision to grab a movie and watch it in the Canyonlands L-Shack. FYI the L in L-Shack does not stand for love, it stands for Laundry, aka the Laundry room. The reason I call it the "L-Shack" is because it sounds better, and really, it is a cool place to watch movies. There's surround sound, a leather sectional, and a big screen tv. Not what you expected in a laundry room, is it? We watched the horror film, Case 39, but pretty much ruined it because we talked through the whole thing, guessed the plot, and made jokes the entire time. Afterwards, everyone left and I went home to The Cave. Things are quit around here tonight, which is kinda unusual, but it's nice to be able to kick back and relax. I wish the famous Katy could have made an appearance tonight, but she was busy being a good friend. Guess I'll just have to wait to see her this weekend!
