My blog

is pretty dead. I apologize. I hardly write anything that really happens in my life. So I'll write a few random details to get you up to date!

-2 new baby cousins were born in my family over Thanksgiving break. One Monday night the 24th, and the other Saturday morning at 5am. I have learned way too much about pregnancy that it is officially the best birth control available. There are WAY too many details I didn't know that I do not like. Bleh. But anyways, I love little ones and am ecstatic that Kaitlyn Marie and William Jace are here :) Kaitlyn is having some problems in the ICU but she should be better. I also got to meet my 21 month old cousin Kaelyn Grace (the sister of William Jace) and hang out with Kellene Rae (the older sister of Kaitlyn). Good times.

-I just finished a 2 week set of antibiodics for my last illness. I went off them YESTERDAY and right now as I'm sitting here, I feel sinus pressure, and swollen lymph glands with a sore throat. I am terrified. I can't fathom this. I don't understand why doctor's say it's just 'college'. I should be able to fight off things. I get lots of sleep for a college student and try to manage my stress.

-I started watching Dancing With The Stars. I know. WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME. I just started to watch because I was bored and then BAM I was hooked. I love that Julianne Hough though. Too bad she is leaving. Also the season is over so I am not ashamed anymore.

-Black Friday should be a holiday itself. I live for it. That is the ONLY time of year I will happily jump out of bed at 4am to stand in line and buy great things. I love people watching too. This year my big purchase was an mp3 player so I can have all my music in my car finally. It took awhile because I had a 6 cd changer and was sad that it wouldn't get any use. But it will because I have to run the mp3 player through the FM radio which causes static if there is a station there. Not fun. But no other way to do it. Unless you know a way then you should help me. I was looking for a GPS but my freaking sister insisted we go to wal mart first so she could get her camera, and the gps I wanted was at Target. They were sold out when we got there.

-I'm glad Britney is back. Ya, I said it.

-I really want to see Marley and Me (I love Jennifer Aniston!) and Four Christmases (Reese!). I also am really excited for Doubt with Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. We read the play my freshman year here at Biola. I actually read something that was assigned and liked it. Good stuff.

-I am trying to get tickets for the last ever showing of Wicked in Los Angeles. I am ridiculous. This is the 5th time I will see it. And the last. I think it will be so amazing to see the last curtain call and everything. I am too obsessed.

-My knee is still giving me trouble. When I fractured my foot, it affected my whole leg and I still have trouble getting up and bending my knee. My foot is totally fine. Weird, I know. I am still hoping it heels on it's own. I don't need physical therapy. I also still need to learn how to do the back handspring in my gymnastics class.

-For Christmas I am hoping for donations for an electric violin. For those who don't know, violin was my life since 5th grade. The only thing I have ever really been good at. I stopped playing after one year in the Biola orchestra. It was just too time consuming. I did keep playing on praise teams at local churches though, until my electric violin broke. I have not played in probably a year now and it kills me. I hope I still can. Anyways, bottom line is I need a new one and it costs a LOT and I really want one ok?

-My work hired a 2nd secretary. She is my mom's age. I started training her today. It is weird to explain things to people when you have been doing it for almost a year and a half on your own. She literally wrote everything I said down. Hilarious. There is so much to know though.

Well, I'm out.
