Secret Weezer Love

So my whole life I have been denying my love for Weezer. There are two main reasons for this and they are called my brothers. It seemed like Daniel and Jared would listen to absolutely nothing else for the longest time. AND they claimed that there was no other band that had covered as many genres as Weezer. For some reason that made me quite mad and I (being the original black sheep in the family) wanted to be different from everyone else, so I claimed that I couldn't stand them...But secretly, I actually really enjoyed listening to Weezer. Even to this day, if one of my brothers were to ask me how I felt about Weezer, I would probably say something like, "Meh...They're okay, I guess." While to the rest of the world I would say, "Weezer? They are the greatest!!" I guess that's just how it goes.

P.S.

Mono is not the greatest. It is the worst. Be a germaphobe and do not share things or touch doorknobs with bare hands and definitely do not kiss anyone without checking if they've had mono first.

P.P.S. Next week is the most important week of this year for me!! My birthday is on Wednesday and I'm celebrating it all week with different friends! AND The Hunger Games is coming out on Thursday night and I have been planning on attending the midnight showing since I first read the book when it came out in 2008!! SO. FREAKIN. EXCITED.

I seriously want to punch some girls right now...

Really. It's taking all my self control and a very comfortable bed to stop me from going to the girls' apartment above me to rip a few heads off. What kind of sick, cruel people play Selena Gomez and other crap at volumes so loud that it is making my ceiling light fixture rattle??? I want to go find a couple of rabid skunks and a few other feral animals to trap in their apartment. Gall.

I got the job at Which Wich that I wanted! I LOVE it. All of it. My boss, crew, product, location, atmosphere, decor, custom radio station, customers, duties, hours...It's a perfect fit for me. I HIGHLY recommend going there. The "wiches" are DIVINE.

Hello 2012...and zits...

So Shannon and I pretty much did what we set out to do, for those that wanted a follow up on that.

Right now my life is pretty much consumed by The Job Hunt. I HATE The Job Hunt. It is overwhelming, anxiety-inducing, AND it has led me to have THE WORST break-out of zits that I have ever had in my life. No exaggeration there. And I'm not just getting them on my face, either. It's incredibly sucktacular. (My computer does not recognize this adjective as a real word. It is trying to tell me I mean Unspectacular, semicircular, testicular, or muscularity. I don't mean any of those words. I mean SUCK-tacular.) Anyway, The Job Hunt has bore forth a few interviews and one offer, but it was a commission-sales job, which is something I can't handle right now. I am hoping for another offer at an all-new sandwich place called "Which Wich?" with in the week, so we'll see how that goes. Obviously I'm still applying for more places online and in person while I wait for this place to get back to me. I really want to work in the food business and if I don't have a job by the 10th, it's "Hello 2012, good-bye Orem."

Farewell 2011! It's been a good one...

So tomorrow evening, my roommate Shannon and friends Justin, Craig, Sadie, Colter, Mike, possibly Patrick, and Nate and I have awesome New Years Eve plans. We are going to dress up in our finest, eat dinner together and find a few parties to crash. I am so ecstatic for this plan because usually my New Year's Eve consists of hanging around with the family til midnight drinking Martinelli's sparkling cider and eating shrimp cocktail. Last year I was even playing Angry Birds on my dad's iPad when the clock struck twelve. This year is going to be a little more exciting, I hope.

Soo....It's been a little while...

Sometimes, when I am doing something productive, or when I'm not by a computer, I will remember that I do actually have a blog...And that I love my blog...But then when I get within a 15 foot radius of a computer, I forget immediately. So that is what happened to me over the past 4 or however many months.

College is okay, I guess, but I've decided that I want to spread my little baby bird wings and officially leave the nest. For my family, that just means that I don't want to be financed by my parents anymore. So. I have made the decision to work full-time and pull out of school for a little while. There are SO many details and thoughts that went into this huge decision, but I've gone over them so many times over the past couple weeks that I really don't feel like vomiting them out all over the internet at this time. Maybe later.

Now some of you in my imaginary audience may be wondering what my life is like in the land of Orem, Utah...The only thing I can really say is that SO many things have changed in just the past month of my life, I can hardly believe that I am the same person. I don't know if I've ever opened up so much to so many people at the same time. I trust my little circle of college buds so much, it's odd to think that we haven't known each other for eons. I've had so many more full-disclosure conversations with these people than with any other friends I think I have ever had. It's so strange.

I've really got to go wrap presents now. Merry Christmas!! We'll see if I can continue to write on this somewhat consistently...

Updated Ramblings...

So I'm off to college on Friday evening. I will unload my things the next morning at UVU. :) When I woke up this morning, I was so full of things to say, but now I can't really think of anything. Most of my excitement and anxiety is summed up in those first two sentences. I better go pack.

I've give up.

So...The whole 30 days of blogging thing was an epic fail on my part. I've proven to myself that I can't get on my blog everyday. It's practically impossible. But isn't that a good thing? That I actually have a life and I'm not wasting it away by being egotistical all over the internet and posting about my existence daily? Or maybe I'm hopeless with being consistent and meeting goals and persisting. Probably the second, because we all know it wasn't like I was staying off pointless internet sites... I'm guilty of facebook posting, Bones watching, and I spent WAY too many hours watching "How to speak in a Scottish accent" videos on youtube, among other things.

Term I made up for the day: Impromptu dissonance :)
