Don't take your feet off the pedals

September 3, 2011

Here in Cedar City we have plenty of empty time on our hands. I decided I needed a hobby. I picked up texting with my toes, which I'm getting pretty good at. I can tell I'm building muscles from it because the fronts of my legs are sore! When that got old Kenz and I decided to go to Wal-Mart and buy scooters to ride around campus. But, when we got there something better caught our eye. It was a yellow unicycle/tricycle lookin thing. We were drawn to it and we couldn’t resist! We pulled it around the store on a leash, while looking for a bike lock. we didn't think we could get away with hiding it under the bed. We split it 30 30 and bought it. We were the talk of Wal-Mart all night. So many people came up to us and asked us about it. Hahah it was awesome. We rode it around the parking lot for probably an hour doing stupid stuff. We pushed carts around and gave each other rides on the step on the back. We went down a hill and I was on the Back and I said "Kenz whatever you do, don't take your feet off the pedals or we'll go flying", she was successful. Then we switch and it was my turn to go down the hill. It went outta control and Kenz jumped off the back and I went flying, after laughing for a long time I said "I should have listened to my own advice. Don't take your feet off the pedals!" Kenz just stared at me for a second and then exclaimed, "YOU TOOK YOUR FEET OFF THE PEDALS???" Sending us into a fit of laughter. Then we went through a drive thru on our cycocycle, and the guy got really mad at us. but it was fun :)

Tuesday the 6^th, I had work. It was pretty good. But right before I had to go to work I realized I didn’t get the car keys from Kenz and my first thought were “oh crap I’m going to have to ride the blasted Unicycle to work!!” that was a frightening thought! So I just Kenz and ran clear across campus to get the keys from her. You couldn't pay me to ride that contraption to work! haha

I like to sleep like a PB&J sandwich

August 24, 2011

Today was operation class over load. I had 6 classes back to back. Torture? I think yes.  I’m only taking 14 credits… I think… so that is total BS haha. The point of this; Monday is a lot higher on my list of favorite days now and Wednesday comes in dead last. I wish to just completely eliminate it from the days of the week if possible.

Tonight Kenz and I were just hanging out in our room and I was showing her how I made my bed ultra-comfy. It’s like a PB&J sandwich; you have to build it right for ideal effectiveness. First I start out with my purple fuzzy blanket on the bottom, then I cover myself with yet again another fuzzy blanket (blue this time), last I snuggle up to my fuzzy woody blanket. I was demonstrating this process to her and I was nuzzling the blanket vigorously like a cat (I was in a silly mood) and she said, “is this how you sleep every night… cause I’m really glad we sleep with the lights off!!” hahahaha it was a gut buster.

It’s hilarious, every night when we’re in bed I’ll start laughing, and Kenz will say “what?” then I’ll tell her. Usually it starts out something like… “I just pictured…” followed by something bazaar. The first night I was picturing my heavy duty glass plate in the microwave, and it would get really hot and I wouldn’t be able to get it out. I was laughing like crazy, and when I told her she started laughing too. It was a laughing fest for about 10 minutes over imagining my plate in the microwave. We’ve carried on this ridiculous tradition ever since.

First off I would like to say that a girl needs a little room to shaver her legs, our dorm shower is tiny and doesn’t fit my needs as I would like. I like to leave the conditioner in my hair while I shave, it adds shine ;) so in order to do this my hair cannot get wet while in the shaving of the legs process. So I adjusted the shower head as best as I could to minimalize hair to water contact. What ended up happening is I had to sit down and smash myself into the corner opposite of the shower head. While I was on my 2^nd leg I could feel my chest tightening up, even though they say hot air rises, it doesn’t. It was sinking and it was very steamy, not ideal breathing conditions. So by the time I got to my arm pits I was almost passed out, it was all blur to me. Gee what a girl will sacrifice for a little extra shine. I almost suffocated in the shower for Pete’s sake!

Today was my first day of work at Wendy’s. It was terribly boring. I went in to room all by myself and watch approximately 3000 videos on the importance of washing my hands after I sneeze. Lather soap for 20 seconds, I GOT IT!!! Before I left, my supervisor asked me if I was a small, and gave me my uniform. I got home and pulled it out of the package *gasp*first thought that pops into my mind “this will fit Shaq!! It’s giant!” I have to wear this uniform for work on Thursday so I went to the ONLY store in town, the good ol’ local Wally World, to buy pants. The only dress pants they carry are elastic waist grandma pants that look like my karate pants. What the heck? Did the designer think people would have to fight off crime while in the professional work world, if so those were great multi-purpose pants! GO GRANDMA. Eventually I found black skinny jeans, which is what I had to settle on. So far I have Shaq’s shirt and skinny pants, could it get any more ridiculous? Next I needed shoes. All I could find were GRANDPA shoes!! Horary!! I was considering them when luckily Kenz found another pair that was equally as ugly ,but  less old person, and cheaper. What a steal huh? So I bought em to add to my collection of ridiculous things I’m going to wear to work! I can’t wait!

We got free dinner at the “meet your religious leaders night”. After Kenz and I ate we were laying on the lawn talking. Mind you there are hundreds of students around. I started getting in a really goofy mood and I was laughing and all of a sudden I put my legs up in the air, and I was about the put my butt in the air (like I do at home)  when my sense came to me and I said “oh my goodness I forgot we were in public!!” that was pretty embarrassing considering we specifically sat there cause there were cute boys sitting nearby. I’m pretty sure I didn’t win them over with my charm like I’d hoped, they got up and left shortly after I made a fool of myself. In the mix of all this I folded my arms and my hand brushed my arm pit. It felt a little bristly and I thought,  “what the, I shaved this morning. I know because it was a near death experience!” so I examined my pit and yes it was VERY hairy. Confused I lifted my other arm and looked under it, I couldn’t possibly grow that much hair that fast. It was smooth. My conclusion, shaving in a state of deliria is not efficient, for best results check pulse and breathing before, during, and after to insure full consciousness and a smooth shave!

My First Day as a Lowly Freshmen

August 22, 2011

You know how everyone has that nightmare of showing up to school in their underwear? Well as of today that nightmare became MY reality. I had my first dance class today. I checked my schedule 5 times, I was sure I had ballet first, so I showed up in pink tights and a black leotard (which I detest with passion). To my embarrassment it was MODERN class! I stood out like a sore thumb…. Hahaha people even asked if I was in the right class. I seriously looked ridiculous so I put my sweats on and almost died of heat. The class was really good, and difficult. I haven’t danced pretty much since April so it almost killed me. I’m going to be so sore. My body was really stiff but I think after about a week I should be back to normal. I really feel like I am going to grow a lot as a dancer down here at SUU. In the middle of the class I got a bloody nose… great… as if the goofy get up wasn’t enough!! Haha. So I have to run outta class to fix it

Oh P.S. last night Kenz and I tried moving her bed down a couple of notches so it wouldn’t be so tall. I think there was a lack of thinking on our part… it weighed about 200 pounds not to mention there were only two of us to hold up both solid wood bed posts and lift the medal mattress frame. I was under it at first and I was being smashed, my neck was kinked and I thought death was around the corner when Kenz started laughing uncontrollably and said “Wait, stay there, I need to take a picture!” yeah as if I had the choice to move…. haha Then I got the wise idea to use me legs, it looked ridiculous but worked wonders. My life was saved. I was my own hero!! Her bed was in complete shambles, so we recruited Skyler Burgess and Bronson Shroder from Dixie to play Humpty Dumpty and put it back together again. Thank heaven for guys with muscles. Needless to say she slept great last night.

At about 10:30 I had this intelligent idea to go buy my math book before my 11:00 class. First I had to find the book, and then stand in the 15 min long line, not to mention my class was on top of a steep hill on the opposite side of campus. Haha if I keep having these wise epiphanies I’m going to have to learn to love running up a 50% incline luging about 30 lbs. No worries I was on time to class with two sweaty pits and a dripping forehead. I love colleges it’s so adventurous!

Today in English class the teacher was explaining procedure and he said all sports team members needed to give him a schedule of their games by Friday. This kid raised his hand and said “do you need mine? I’m on track and it doesn’t start till the spring…” the teacher was like “what the Hell?? No if you’re still in my class this Spring I’ll kick your ass!!” it was really funny. All of class the teacher kept going back to that, he couldn’t let it go. He was just so astonished at that comment, and the poor kid just didn’t realize that classes are only a semester long; he was still in high school mode.
