Procrastination

Today I made a realization of something I really already knew. You should not plan on studying everything for a test the day before. You never know what is going to happen that could interfere. For example, I should have been keeping up better in Latin because now I'm going to be up very late studying because today my roommate, Elsie, got her mission call!!! She's going to Chile! Yay! I am so excited for her. However, I became very distracted from studying because of her call. This semester I just feel so distracted from school because there are so many wonderful people like my roommates and the people in my ward. I just want to be with them. I want to be doing things and having adventures. I need to get back to studying.

My Journal

Today I was reading through my journal. It was really funny to see how I've changed. I was such a brat when I was younger. I had the strangest thoughts. For example, I always wanted to be a writer, and one day I wrote that a funny name for a book character would be Roman Numeral II. hahaha. I am so weird. I got upset over the dumbest things too, like my sister not letting me play with my brother's toy and cleaning. I wish I had written more because I mainly wrote when I was angry, because writing is relaxing. But now it seems like I was an extremely negative girl. I don't think I was overall though. Apparently I did argue more often with my mom and my sister than I thought. It's weird though because I've always considered my sister my best friend, and now we don't argue at all. It was fun to see how I've grown and how my testimony has grown.

College

It's 2 am and I most definitely should be going to bed. I can't believe how late I have been staying up. Today was fun. It was 10-9-8 and I decided to celebrate! I made a cake and I wrote top ten lists about my roommates. It was fun, and probably kind of dorky. Some of my friends came over and that was great. I love having friends this year so much. I can't believe how anti-social I've been for the last two years. I was missing out. We were cleaning our kitchen and we discovered some rotting potatoes, which was really gross but also kind of funny because everyone was freaking out about it. Haha, I love life and people. It's so funny. Work was fun today and the weather was perfectly gorgeous. I love October. Basically, this is kind of redundant, because I just keep saying how much I love everything, but it's pretty much true. Today was one of the best days ever! It was worth it not to do homework and end up staying up late.

School

So my dad told me to start this blog to write book reviews. However, since school has started I haven't been able to read very much. It's pretty sad. This summer I read probably three books a week. It was wonderful. I also spent a lot of time with my family, at work, and at the gym. It was a very nice, although not too exciting, summer. This school year is great so far. I'm lovin' my roommates, and my friends, and my classes. The next few weeks are going to be tough with tests and everything, but that's ok. It was general conference weekend this weekend. I love general conference! The first session was seriously exactly what I needed along with many other parts. I am seriously loving life right now!
