Last Hurrah

So I have decided that as much as I believe money is way overrated, the more of it I have for australia the better a trip it will likely be...Thus this weekend is my last hurrah, last kick at the can. This comes for a few reasons, it will save me money here, it will save me money there and i will no doubt be in better shape because of it!! This weekend marks the last time I will purchase alchol, skittles, chips, ice cream, smarties (which are milk choclate not those american ones that are really just rockets), pop for lunch, lunch for that matter..I have decided the only time I am going pay for food is in dire circumstances and a max of 4 pleasures a week...which are divided up as: 3 dr. peppers and 1 helping of ribs at the fox and hounds! these pleasures will equal no more than 7 dollars thus keeping me under 30 dollars a month as opposed to the nearly 200 dollars a month I have been spending on junk! As I figure it obviously saves me money here at home...but once I go to aussie and want to party and all that I will need less to drink, I won't be dependant on little snacks and things to get through the day, I will have learned how to budget! As well I have decided that I will only allow myself to swear once a week. granted I really only swear a handfull of times a week...probably max out at 20 a week, so I think. But this counts as f-bombs, female dogs, donkeyholes, dog poops, derogatory comments, gender slander anything. This is one I don't really like it, two when I am a teacher i can't have any little accidental swears droppin out for example: "Today kids we are mainly going to be reading and then some other random shit" Because I seriously say "and shit" alot. I for a whole 2 weeks in the summer called my dog f**ker or asshole cause he responded to it and I thought it was funny. Or lately I have taken to when I get hurt, for example took a spill infront of the good ole Kin building today and let out quite the emphatic "SLUT" directed totaly at myself and the stair my brain and feet somehow didn't notice. So this is my blog about my last hurrah for a while! (the only exception to any of the rules is family bought stuff and new years...because come on my birthday is January 1st you can't really expect me to not go all out can you!!) If you catch me going against my little mission statement here call me on it and you can have whatever it is..ie skittles or umm 25 cents if I swear unless I am under my limit!!

Anyway the real reason I came on here to spew this to all of you was so that it is written down and I now can't go back on my words!

Happy

Life right now can be summed up with that one simple word, HAPPY! I could say the reasons unknown, I could list off reasons it could be due to (school is going amazing, the dentist said my teeth are perfect and gave me a pack of sugarless gum and a toothbrush, I am completely healthy minus the sniffles which I kinda like, I am getting along with my parents incredibly well, my brother is doing amazing and will be playign with the flames in no time, Ihave an amzing group of friends etc.), I could just end the blog here. But to do all that would be lying, I couldn't end the blog there because I woudn't have explained my happiness, the list is not the reason for my happiness because you could reverse them (except maybe if my teeth went bad, cause I don't like bad teeth) and I would sill be completely happy, and to say the reasons unknown would definately be a straight out lie. My happiness comes from one single girl! Everything she does makes me smile. Every word she says makes me think about a million things. Everytime she touches me she sends shivers down my spine. I am falling and falling hard. I have said this before, I know, so what makes this different...I really couldn't tell you. It has all the other classic signs as the ones before did: can't get her out of my head, stomach butterflies, 2 days without talking to her seems like forever, shes taken down my wall, I can't stop smiling when I am around blah blah blah... so what makes this one different?? The way she looks at me...mainly when she thinks I am not paying attention, or thinks I fell asleep during sideways (which I did but then i woke up). That look alone is enough to melt my heart, enough to make me come on to my blog and write about it. Hopefully this fall doesn't end like all the others have, which I really don't think it will, but if it does I don't care because it will be worth it, utterly and completely worth it!
Hope y'all are doing well now you hear!!

The Switch

I was walking around the university today and I ran into an old friend. His name is Chris Exner, and he used to be a really nice kid and seems as though he still is. We talked for a bit and then parted ways not with a fake "I will call you sometime" or "We should hang out sometime" but a simple "Great seeing you and maybe we'll run into each other again". As I walked away from Chris I realized something, he was the one that caused me to flip The Switch. It is because of him that I decided that I should try and be friends with everyone possible, that being nice to those you hardly know isn't that hard, that to become friends with someone it only takes 1 nice gesutre etc. We were 10 years old, we had played on the same soccer team for 2 years now yet I wouldn't have counted him as anything but a sport friend (teammate...this is before you go on a bunch of road trips with a team and you all have to become good friends being that you live together for a whole season). One day we were leaving practice and Chris came up to me and asked if I would come to his birthday party on saturday, he explained we were going to fuddruckers for food and then to ruckers for video games, as he continued to explain this would be the 4th birthday in a row he has done this and every year he is only allowed to invite 4 friends...I couldn't help thinking "I am one of the 4 you are choosing. I wasn't even sure we were friends. Why would he bring me, he has better friends on the team than me thus he must have even better friends from school."...so I said yes. Went to his birthday party and saw the way he treated everyone one of us as if we were his best friend. It was at this exact point I can trace to where I decided I would try and become friends with everyone, I would treat everyone as if they were my best friend for years (thus why I sometimes will treat someone I just met like we have known each other for longer). I flipped that switch from what I consider a nice kid with some good friends to a nice kid with alot of good friends (whether they liked me back or not I will call them a friend cause I knew no better!) So as I sit here and Type i just want to say Thank You Chris Exner and hopefully we will run into each other again sometime!

Pet Peeved

A few things that have come up and are bugging me...most of which stem from last night!

1) when your class has just finished and you open the door to leave the people waiting for the next class has some insane insatiable thirst for knowledge or the best seating to sleep discretly so they barge past you. Just paitently wait in the hall...the 2 extra minutes its going to take you is nothing to the elbow some angry class leaver might throw at your ignorant ass.

2) Ignorant drivers that cut you off without knowing and then when you beep the horn to let them know that they just about caused an accident they give you the finger. Like it was your bad just give a little sorry wave and be done with it...and by wave I mean one with all your fingers!!

3) People that guilt you for not calling them or making an effort and yet they themselves seem to never be able to make that elusive phone call. I sometime just purposely don't call the person to see how long it takes them to realize the phone works both ways and its not always the other persons fault...I called last and apparently I am going to have to be the one to call again!

4) Jelaous boyfriends at the bar. To set up the situation: ex girlfriend and boyfriend (of whom while a certain guy was dating this girl she talked about all the time in a friendly way and guy never suspected a thing) at the bar with some of x's friends. x's friends rather enjoy the company of said guy as he was a pretty good boyfriend at the time of being with x, if I say so myself, and said guy is also nice to x because really what is the point of not being nice. One of x's friends gets way to drunk and somehow sneaks off without the x or x's friends noticing. x enlists said guy to help find said drunk girl. said guy finds said drunk girl and tells x. x is happy. x boyfriend decides that he must make known to said guy (whom he doesn't know from his ass or a hole in the ground might I add) that he is x's boy with uttering the line "do you know who x's boyfriend is" in the sort of I wanna fight you tone ( I must add I..I mean said guy stands at around 6 foot 3 200 pounds and is a lover but believes he can hold his own and x's boy stands if he is lucky to pee...I mean at 5 foot 7 and maybe a buck 35) so said guy responds "do you know who x's x is? because I know if I was a small little shit trying to be tough I wouldn't beak an ex boyfriend that is just trying to help someone out because that ex boyfriend might just have some pent up aggression towards new boy friend of ex and it might only take a little bit for that aggression to get out!" x's boy then proceeds to bump chests with said guy...said guy one punches x's boy, helps up said drunk girl and drives x and said drunk girl plus friends home....ok kidding being the bigger man said guy politely tells x boy that he has nothing to worry about in the way of his girlfriend and didn't want anyproblem. x's boy then bumps said guy again. This time said guy with a little bit of frustration in his voice says "so if you wanna play the jelaous boyfriend role do it. But look at size comparrisons and look at the fact that I have tried to be nice so far. Now you've bumped me 2 times and I assume this is just because you have some sort of little man syndrome, and I don't blame you cause if I was that small I would be envious of me too, anyway 2 times I will let slide but a third time and I wont take into consideration the size difference, or the jelaous boyfriend stigma and I will have to embarass you and then you will be jelaous boyfriend with a black eye, brusied pride and a little thing I like to call just got put in his place disease etc." x then takes x's boy to the side and x's boy comes to his senses and creatively yells "fuck you homo" and walks away. So yeah those type of people piss me off!!

5) Bouncers that think they run show/ liars. Like what makes them think they have this amazing power over everything. to set it up a drunk girl walks infront of a moving car that is going 5 kilometers an hour max and gets her leg barely tapped and drunken girl proceeds to fall and hit her head on the ground and become unconscience. cops show up and the bouncer proceeds to tell the cops how the girl driving the car was pushing through the crowd of people and hit this one girl really hard with the car because she wouldn't move...this si the part where my faith in being a bit of ass everynow and then can pay off....so said guy and his friends hearing this story stop the bouncers story to inform the cop that said bouncer was not even outside of the bar at the time of the incident. when questioned about this the bouncer admits to the nice police oficer man that he infact didn't see it acctually happen but he had heard from a bunch of people in the crowd. the nice police man then turns to said guy and his comrads and asks for the truth, they tell the story and point him in the direction of others that had witnessed and that weren't drunk!

6) those that take it upon themselves to make fun of the socially challenged straight to thier faces thus probably causing a lot more damage to that social disfunction already present.

7) People that aren't open to others opinions. You can think your opinion is correct but other people have opinions as well and if you can't learn to accept thiers than how can you expect them to respect yours.

8) people that write blogs that ramble on and on and on and on and on....oh wait I live those people

9) I love em I love em I love em I love em!!!

ohh and I will add a tenth just cause 10 is my favorite number
10) those people that are racisit without knowing and then when you call them on what they just said they deny deny deny. Its just too bad!

Anyway hope all is well y'all
