Alarm

It's the worst sound in the world. It makes my skin crawl, my entire body cringe, and for a brief moment I want to kill something. It's my alarm. I hate it!



Especially, when I am having a wonderful dream about Mr. Talldarkandhandsome, just when he is about to give me the best kiss of my entire life, the alarm goes off and ruins the whole thing.



I feel like the alarm clock enjoys it!
It is the alarms job, waking people up. I just picture it getting so excited about going off. I know that it is an inanimate object. But it has been taunting me for years!

This week I finally figured out a way to not let the alarm clock torture me! I wake up before it goes off! It’s like a race, and I am winning! I was so excited on Tuesday when I beat it two days in a row. Now it is Friday and I went all week without hearing my alarm go off once! And I have been in a great mood everyday that I have woken up before the alarm. It may be that I just love winning so much. And I am defeating something that has given me grief for years. I am just so proud.

I thought I would share. If I make it two weeks, we need to celebrate with a dinner.

F

So I told us all to blog by Sunday but I didn't do it!

I failed!

I know I get a big F! But I just so you know I did think about it! I thought about it a lot actually!

I just didn't know what to post!

I must say one thing! I am excited to be a roomie with you two! Seriously! I couldn't ask for two better roomates! We all just seem to get along so well!

The deposit money came out of my account today! It's getting real! I can't believe it! Two months from now life is going to be a bit different for me and I can't wait for a new change!

Change usually scares the crap out of me! It's a scary thing! Especially when your life has been in a nice rythme for so long. I am scared, but it's a good scared! I am excited to see what will happen with me! But I am scared because this is the first really big change in my life in 10 years! 10!

(finding all of the f's in this post was hard! I am pretty sure I missed some.)

sometimes cake looks so good

so, i've got like one hour 2 minutes til i have to have a blog up here.

I know like all my posts are about food, but, i just really like to look at food. and eat it. and think about it.

For some reason cake sounded really good today. Good cake, not normal cake. really good moist chocolate cake with that really good frosting. And then I thought, what better time to eat delicious cake than at a cake testing. And that's when I decided that I'm extremely excited to go cake testing for my wedding cake. I'm going to milk that experience for all its worth.

because good cake. is so good.

Sometimes life just falls into place

It truly amazes me. A couple of weeks ago, life came to a point where it looked me straight in the face and said, " Okay check it. Big girl decisions soon have to be made." Crap. In result, stress gets higher and higher and anxiety becomes greater and greater. As the ever-so-talented singer/song writer Ben Folds says, "Everybody knows it sucks to grow up." And it's true, especially when you are trying to decide where to live, what alternative job to take, trying to move forward in schooling/career choice, what the best option for housing is, throw monies in the mix and your head is all sorts of messed up. As it is all sorted out little by little, one thing at a time, you might start seeing a speck of light at the end of the tunnel. You find a great condo that suits three girls just fine, and hey, rent is reasonable. You decide to apply to a dental assisting program to gain knowledge in the dental field. You also find that the location may be 30 minutes away from your comfort zone but it is a lovely place that you will soon call home. And when you think you might be stuck at a job that is 30 minutes away from where you will be living, a suitable job in your soon-to-be-living city opens up and falls right into your lap.

So amidst the stress and anxiety of the decision making that so called "grown-ups" do, really you're just making positive changes that will benefit you, your future, your roommates and maybe, just maybe, you will be lying in bed blogging about how much better you feel because it all seems so worth it. I am excited for the changes ahead, whether they work out or not. Life happens. And whatever happens, happens for a reason. I'm sure it will be a great ride, tons of fun and a wonderful experience in the next chapter of my life.

Question for Ali and Ria: Wanna move in together?

Post by Sunday!

We all have been really slacking on the posting here! Of course Ali has like 5 blogs she has to keep up with and Bethany's schedule is crazy! But I expect more from us ladies. (me included.)

So new goal for this week. We each have to post by Sunday! And it has to be a good post! Alrighty?

mmmmm

I just wanted you all to know that I really want some of these today:

....maybe all of them

Tuesday!

I have to say that Tuesday and I have not had the best relationship for the past 24 years.

I have many reasons for disliking Tuesday.

1. It comes after Monday. Monday is the day where I am still in a daze from the weekend it hasn't quite hit me that I am back to reality. But Tuesday is the day it seems to hit.

2. I am always tired on Tuesday! Always! It's harder to get up and my day is always not nearly as fun.

3. There are still 4 days till the weekend! 4!

4. Nothing really happens on a Tuesday. Seriously, all the other days are popular and have wonderful things happening. Even the good television shows are on the other days, but nothing on Tuesday.

I have decided to try to mend my relationship with Tuesday. I feel like we got off to a bad start. I need to start being a bit more positive about it. And hopefully, eventually it will become one of my favorite days of the week.

I am sorry Tuesday.
