Some Semblance of Sanity

So last week was hectic. 60 hours of work plus being a full-time student with killer grades kinda kicked my butt. However I did survive, and while I am still busy with my usual 30-40 hours a week of work plus school, I have achieved a modicum of sanity after a week of hectic hell. Tonight I'm actually chilling with my Grandpa in Idaho Falls so I have some time to finally scribble a little something down.


So here is what is new with me. I'm waiting to hear about the nursing program as ISU. You all probably don't know this but I want to be a nurse practitioner and I find out by November 1 if I got into the bachelor's nursing program. If I get in then I'll start in January.

I'm trying to decide if I should buy a truck. I already have my car Jessica and I love her. But I kinda want a truck too.

I'm trying to find an apartment in Pocatello. ASAP.

I'm throwing a party on Saturday.

I got a date with an awesome girl I'm kinda friends with. I'm kinda excited about this one. She kinda dated my old roommate a year ago and she is cute. We've been texting all day the last couple days and it could be a fun date.

The super attractive girl in my chemistry class wants to hang out (Let's hope it doesn't end up like Marcy. I met her in Chemistry class too) I need to figure out what to do when we hang out. Any fun ideas for when you don't really know someone?

Charly wants to date me. She knows I just want to be friends and she is cool with that. At least she is for now. I did go to the corn maze with her and one of her friends on Monday. It was kinda fun. But she did say tonight that she wants to go again with me. Hopefully she isn't thinking just me and her.

I made the mistake of making out with this girl named Kandace. Hmmmm it was fun but not worth it. Now she won't leave me alone.

I finally added pictures to my photography blog. I have a few more I need to edit and get put up.

I keep forgetting to start my snowmobile. I'm getting excited to go.

But I guess that is enough randomness for now. Grandpa's bishopric just came over. Time for me to be social

Socks

So this is really weird but I'm picky about my socks. I'm not sure where this weirdness with socks comes from but people usually think I'm weird when they find out so I figured I'd share.

Growing up we weren't allowed to go outside in just our socks. I think this was because my mom didn't want us to ruin our socks. We could go out barefoot but if we had socks on, we had to have shoes on too. Well a couple weeks ago I'm over at Charly's and we go out to jump on the tramp. She looked at me kinda funny when I went to get my shoes from next to the front door (habit from the mission. I won't wear shoes in someones house usually) and I put my shoes on to walk across the grass and then took them off to jump on the tramp. There really was only 15-20 feet of grass between the back door and the tramp. Dumb on my part, I know.

Work Socks

So I work on a farm and I get stuff in my shoes all the time. Because of this my socks for work are never white. So I have different socks to wear for work then for anything else. The two types of socks never get used for the other purpose. Now you would think that as these socks are dirty all the time I wouldn't care if I had two different types of work socks on. But I do. I will search for 10 minutes to find matching work socks. And it isn't just the color of the sock. I have three different kind of plain white work socks. They look the same but were purchased at different times. Even though they look the same, I won't wear two different age socks at the same time. It drives me nuts to do so because they fit just a little bit differently.

The same goes for my good socks. They don't mix. Ever. I would wear sandals in the middle of winter with a foot of fresh snow on the ground rather then wear mismatched socks. I actually did that in high school. My toes froze. But it would have driven me crazy to have my socks different all day long.

Something tells me I might be a little OCD. Maybe just a little :)

Pictures

Okay here is a really quick post. My cousin just found my photography blog and she told me that I should tell people about it. So I decided to tell the two of you who read this about my photography blog. It isn't anything spectacular but I do enjoy taking pictures when I have time. You'll see that I don't post frequently on it. This is due to me not having time to take pictures. But I'm finishing some right now so I might have a new post sometime in the next few weeks.



Hopefully tomorrow I'll write a real post. About socks. Just wait, it will be epic. (At least in my head it will be interesting)

Holy Hell Batman

So I'm busy.


Really busy.

So I wrote about how I go to a new school now. Well this semester I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays and online. So I spend two full days a week doing school stuff. From 8-5 or 6 I do nothing but school work. Usually I can get it all done in those two days a week. On Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and most Saturdays I work all day. Most days it's only 8 or 9 hour days. But it is harvest time now so the hours are longer.

For example. Friday I went to work at 8 and worked until 8 that night. No breaks. I ate lunch in the tractor. And that was a short day. After work on Friday Charly and a couple of her friends came up to hang out. We watched the new Robin Hood with Russell Crowe.

I loved it. Also if I were as jacked as Russell is I'd be pretty freaking happy. The guy's a stud.

After the movie we ended up playing Guitar Hero on the projector and messing around. I went to bed just after 3 Friday night.

Saturday morning I get up at 6:45 so I can pack a lunch, eat some breakfast, have scripture study and make it to work by 7:30. I was a little bit tired. But it gets better. So we started digging potatoes yesterday on the farm. It's hot and super dry and dusty. Stuff breaks down all day long. Needless to say, it was a long day.

Really long.

Like I didn't get off work til after 10:30 last night. So, 15 hours long. Once again without any breaks. It was a long day. But to be honest, I really didn't mind it. Maybe it's weird but I don't mind working. I actually enjoy it. I think I'm slightly weird in this regard. If I have more than a day or two in which I have nothing to do I go crazy. As much as I love reading (I'm re-reading Brisingr for probably the 10th time now?) or catching up on the few TV shows I enjoy, I hate not working.

Hmmmm I'm pretty sure there was a lot more I wanted to say in this post. But I forgot it all.

Wait I remembered something. So Mormon Bachelor Pad is the reason why I started writing this in the first place. I thought it was cool that two guys in about the same place in life as I am could write what was going on in their lives in anonymity. Well Lachele's Blog told me that they confessed so I checked it out. Turns out they are old. What creepy guys. Pretty sure when I'm that old I won't be writing as if I'm fresh back from my mission and flirting with freshman college girls who read their blog.

Also just in case either of the people who follow this are wondering, I really am only 22. And nothing in here is a lie. Well my name is. As are the girls names. But all the boringness you get to read? Yup, it really happened/is happening now. Yay for the excitingness that is my life.
