Like Ships In The Night.....

"Ships in the Night" is the name of the Mat Kearney song I am listening to right now. I am trying to drowning out my neighbos' inspirational Mexican music ( I didn't know it existed either ha). Wanna know something funny? On my itunes when I uploaded Mat's new cd it put it in the genre of religious. What the devil? Basically the music that fills my days currently are Jack Johnson's "In Between Dreams" cd, "If This Was a Movie","Come in With the Rain", and "Ours" by Taylor Swift, Everything Regina Spektor, and "The Life Pursuit" by Belle and Sebastian. Thank you Cole for introducing me to some quality stuff.

My days in the last week have gone like this: Wake up at about 9:00, make cereal, toast, or oatmeal, put on a movie or surf the web (We have wifi in our apartment, so I use my laptop more than I should), then my roommae Paige gets home from work (she goes to work at 5:00 am and gets home about 11:00 am) and she takes a nap, so I either read, go on a walk, go to Walmart, watch a movie, or surf the web, then I make lunch (ramen, spaghettios, hamburger helper, soft tacos, etc.), then I check the mail and cross my fingers I get something, Paige wakes up and we talk and hang around, then at night we go to whatever church thing there is. Not very exciting I know, but since my other two roommates are out of town and they usually initiate the adventures we just chill. We have gone to the beach and hung out with people in our ward though. It is good because we have ben able to get to know each other really well. Basically, since I found out school doesn't start until OCTOBER 5TH, I tend to lose my mind at least once a day. That for me menas cleaning. I scrub the bathroom top to bottom, do the dishes and empty the dishwasher, do laundry, take out the trash, ans so on. I have watched about a million movies, and I've seen a lot I haven't seen so that is good. I have read a ton also.

So now that you think my life right now is pretty lame, I guess I will tell you that I have to go downtown on Thursday to register for classes and my school will help me find a job. Downtown is really pretty and my school is in a high rise building on the 3rd floor. I feel pretty classy walking around down there and taking the elevator up. I really am excited for school. I met a lot of cool people who go there and faculty at a student mixer last Saturday and I couldn't believe that I'd actually made it to the school of my dreams. Well, cross your fingers that I can get a job asap so that I'll stop acting like a housewife. Quick story about more crazy people in my ward. Every now and then we have an open mic night at the Institue building on Wednesdays. A lot of crazy people come out and sing podunk stuff and opera and whatnot. The last time when I hadn'r moved here yet apparently two guys went up to the front. One guy started playing a intense piano piece and the other guy goes to the front, pulls out a razor, and begins to dry shave off his beard, and then when he is all done with that he begins to cut off his hair. I guess the audience was completely silent during the whole thing because who the heck does that at a church activity? I'm curious about if he just let the hair get all over the carpet.There are plenty of other akward open mic night stories, but that one is my favorite. Also, our bishop did an extreme dating lecture and is trying to force the guys in our ward to date us girls. That was fun.
"There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together"- Jack Johnson
