Adventures in the Great Wide Somewhere


GAH!

I have so much to tell you!  And by “you” I mean anyone who reads this little wee blog of mine.

For a while I didn’t think that anything in my life was blog worthy *hang head in shame* but but but now I feel like there are things worth blogging in my life.  Now, stay with me, it’s gonna get a little crazy!

I have been watching WAY too much Netflix since Jess and I put it on our Wii, and one of the shows I have watch constantly is Hoarders. Today I saw a few too many similarities between me and those on the television; I spent the next 4 hours cleaning and purging my belongs, and I must say I really keep a whole bunch of unnecessary clutter with the mentality I may one day need it.  In the end I got rid of enough junk to fill the trunk of my car (both trash and donations).  And as always, about halfway through my project I realized I should have taken before and after pictures. . .oh well, you’re just going to have to take my word that the change was significant.  Now on to other business.

As summer quickly draws to a close I am confronted with the fact that there are many things on my summer bucket I have yet to complete.  Some things are simple, like buy the movie Peter Pan.  Others are bigger commitments, like going to the ghost town or visiting friends in Laurel.  But what can you do? With only a few weeks left of my summer, I’ll do what I can and fit the rest in during the school year.  :)  

Okapis. . . have you heard of them?  They look like a mix between a giraffe and a zebra (how that happened I don’t even want to know) but I find them unpleasing to the eye.  Okapis look like someone cut and pasted different parts numerous animals together.  Nonetheless, well, I don’t know where I was going with my rant about okapis, but there it is.  And a picture, behold an okapi.  


Oh boy, I am dreading Thursday and I can’t wait for it to come!  On the up side, LIZ is coming to visit before Gifted Institute, and on the flip side, we both take the Praxis II.  Once we are finished with our test, it’s off to the fair for the both of us to get in some quality grownup girl bonding time!!  Those of you who don’t know. . . Liz is one of my very best friends and I have missed her terribly these past few weeks.  Going from living with someone and having almost every class together to not seeing them at all was tough! I’m pretty sure I was having withdrawals when she first left.  Do you have friends like that?  Oh, I hope you do, because I think best friends are marvelous.


So. . .That’s pretty much it, were you expecting some bigger news?  If so, I’m sorry to disappoint but my life isn’t all that thrilling at the moment.  But really, that’s okay.  Things will happen when they are supposed to, even if I feel the constant need to rearrange the timeline of my life :)

p.s.  Choose to shine
