It's october already

Woohoo! A blog post! Yeaaah....haven't been on this for a while, but it's understandable. I love to make my life complicated :). For instance, right now I'm in nursing school as a first semester-er, and it's a doozy! Not. Well, most of my classes are pretty easy, it's just that anatomy and physiology take up a lot of time. I also started working graves as a cna. I'm so brilliant, right?

The picture here is a brain ice cube in red juice. We thought it looked cool because it was like blooood.

Ahh yes, musings from my distorted thoughts. Today I was thinking that I will make another blog depicting my adventures with a soon-to-be-mine sewing machine. Then I realized that I'd anything, I'm eclectic. This applies to my tastes in movie, music, etc. Case in point: Right now, I have just finished trying out several Linux distros on my mac laptop and installing several retro gaming systems. Computer skils: check. Next, I've tried out several recipes (successfully, to the joy of Brandon) ranging from chocolate pancakes to basil chicken cocunut curry to mini cupcakes. Culinary skills: check. Also, in going to nursing school. Academic/science skills: check. Now while I'm developing all of these, I've decided to learn how to sew my own clothes. Sewing skills: not so much. Hence the desire to create a blog about my projects. Wish me luck :D

I'm turning Purple and Black

33 days!

In the past couple of days, I have managed to turn myself purple and black. First, I finally finished the invitations for the receptions. However, my printer decided to show its love by exploding black ink. Subsequently, I had black ink marks that only just barely came off. The purple came from a stamp with our address on it, where the label part kept shifting. In order to fix it, you had to move it. I, of course, decided that my fingers would work just as well. So...purple ink on my fingers.

Lastly, I have a ginormous bruise on my leg. Haha...the klutz strikes again. I was at the doctors office and was getting off the table when I slipped and sliced my leg against the metal stirrup edge. Oops.



Isn't it lovely?! It bled through my pants when I got it. I think it looks kind of like a face. When I told my dad what happened he looked at me like I was born yesterday. Also, I tried to show my little brother while he was eating, but he refused to look because "I'm eating! That's GROSS SHAR!" Ahh yes, the little things we do to torture siblings.



Why so serious?

In conclusion, I am a messy klutz. But because of it I'm great at basic first aid and cleaning :)

The Dreaded 2am

It's 2:26 in the morning. Why am I up? You wonder, as do I. The answer, simple and poignant, is STRESS.

Planning a wedding is the WORST. Seriously, why didn't we just elope? Oh, I have an answer for that. Enter: the parents. Although I blame them for this fiasco, I am grateful for all they did. This fast-approaching bash would not have been as cool as it's going to be. You win some and you lose some (cliché, I know).

For instance. Before my parents my wedding would have looked something like this:



Brandon would look so hot in a mullet. The dog would be ring bearer, of course.

Now, my wedding will look something like this:



Okay, okay, just kidding. It will be pretty and fun, etc etc.

Too bad I can't sleep and start thinking "how will we get everything over to Utah?!" or "who should I sit Mr.?/ms.? next to?" or "I still need to figure out what to store here!" A lot of times I just think, "I'm tired, can you shut up and leave me alone?"

Even as I write this, I zone out and think "what about this," and other useless questions.

/sigh

Now that it's 3 (great...bad Shar, bad Shar!) I shall try again.

49 Days

49 days until the wedding. :o So much to do so little time!

O.o

Does anyone even read this?

Today is the last day of the week...and PAYDAY! Too bad this entire week I've been sick, either from what the doctor thinks is bronchitis, or nausea that may or may not be the side effects of the medicine. Basically I am uncomfortable all the time.

Yesterday I got off work, and class was canceled, so I went to the temple. I was there for two and a half hours...there were so many people. But I got a lot of reading done, so woohooo!

I am glad that classes are almost over, but I still have my IS classes to finish, which will take a lot of time. What I need is another month where I can just work so that I can finish up my IS stuff. Too bad it doesn't work that way.

The other day I was quoted in the Daily Universe, the school paper, because my friend is in the class that writes for the paper. http://universe.byu.edu/node/1084 There's the link there, in case you didn't believe me.

I've decided that I am sick of computers, but there is no way for me to stay away from them. I use them at work, and then at home for schoolwork. There's no escape! My new plan is to go somewhere and bring my books that don't require internet use, and maybe write out essays on paper first and then type them later. All this staring at screens is making me even more blind, my glasses aren't strong enough anymore and it's only August. I won't be able to get new glasses for another five months. Lame.

THE END IS NEAR!!

Classes for this term end in TWO WEEKS!!

Ok, I decided to edit and add more. Besides classes ending in two weeks, I'll also be moving out of the crestwood in two weeks. There's nothing I really have to say...

Opportunities

Opportunities come and go, and if one is not seized it will pass, never to return again.
