3 down, 1 to go!


Almost done finals! And it's only the second day! Fortunately, I've been able to have a little fun mixed in with the hard work of studying (and by hard work...it REALLY is...I've been so exhausted!)

So Wednesday we celebrated Tiff's birthday, and make cookies and cake. :) We actually didn't eat the cake until last night...but here's what it looked like!

Pretty much...Tiff is amazing. We should make cakes for a living. Between the two of us, we could do anything!

So that was Wednesday. Thursday I studied all stinking day. For real. Geography, geology, and Doctrine and Covenants. I don't even think I did anything else that day, really. Friday was not too much more exciting. WAIT! There was some excitement for Thursday! Okay, so in my geology review, our TA told us about a house that had a boulder go through it, so James and Tim and I went to see it...Jon (the TA) had told us in class where it was, and even showed us on google earth ("stalker assist"). So I showed James and Tim how to get there, and it was awesome. The boulder was bouncing down the mountain, bounced in their backyard, through the back of the house, sailed through a wall in the house, and went through the floor to the garage, where it stopped at the front. Fortunately, no one lived there at the time, so it's just that much better. Pictures!

This is what you see when you drive up. It's all taped off and says "Police Line Do Not Cross"... so of course we crossed and went around to the back. But yeah, there's the boulder in the garage!



Here, you can kind of see the path through the house. See the wall that was taken out? And the huge hole in the floor. I wish I knew how fast that thing was moving, because it SAILED through the house!!



Here's where it bounced in the backyard. Yeah, there's a crater there!

Today has been pretty good. James and I went on a bus hunt/mission to get a suitcase. It was great. We got a suitcase, and we also got the bus we wanted in the end, riding it only a few blocks, just so that we could say we'd ridden it! Then, when we got home, there was a shopping cart still wedged in by the stairs of my complex. It was there last night, when James and Rachelle and I headed over to alex's (it was his bday, so Rachelle and I stole some of Tiff's cake to give him!). So this time, James un-wedged it, and brought it to my apartment, where we brought it inside. Rachelle was in the shower, so naturally, I shoved it into her room.

:) Then we had some fun with it before we pushed it outside again...now it's just hanging out by our door!




And now I'm going to get ready to go to Salt Lake. I'm going to have dinner with Emma! I haven't seen her in years! And I'm going to see Brian Moulton as well! Hooray! I gotta go. Oh, and I'm done three of my finals already, which is AWESOME. Means the only day I have to do something worthwhile in the next week and a half is TUESDAY, when I take my geology final! YAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  1. Shopping carts and boulders, huh? That's interesting. You're such a rock hound!

10 Things I hate about Hannaford

Today was one of those days. I've had this list growing in my head for a while too, and today I just want to write it all down, cuz the first part of work, until I got back from my break, pretty much sucked. Stupid people. So in no specific order... 1. Frozen pizzas. I don't like eating them, and I hate them even worse at the register, because their barcodes are dumb and they don't fit in bags. 2. paper in plastic. Seriously, what's the point?! 3. customers who bag for themselves on express. THERE IS NO ROOM ANYWAY, and yet they're making less. This also includes the people who rearrange as you bag for them. yuck. if you want it a specific way, just tell us! 4. people who smell bad. nuff said. 5. old guys who wink at me. and hit on me. sick. 6. when dillon is not my bagger. hahahah. 7. when someone asks "where's corn flake crumbs?" like anyone could even know that. what are those even used for?! just get the crumbs from the bottom o...

Greased Lightning

It's snowing today! And what a great day it's been...minus the fact that I haven't finished nearly as much as I should have by now. But I DID go outside and play in the snow...and that's important! The snow was fresh in the tree....so I did what any little kid would do, and licked it. It was snow AND ice...good thing my tongue didn't freeze to the tree in my front yard! I love tree branches in the snow. There's just something about the combination of brown and pure white that strikes my artistic bone. Part of the tree and part of my house. Looking up Pennichuck Street. So picturesque. Me in my getup...I borrowed Michael's boots because I don't have any in NH (except for my cowboy boots....), and he gave me his snowshoeing boots, because they each weight like 5 pounds, and he just wanted to see me try to walk in them. My sunglasses made a comeback! Well, that's today. I've got a couple papers to write for English 316, and a bunch of Bio to r...

10 Things I love about Hannaford

So originally I was going to do this in sarcasm...but then decided that I could actually come up with 10 things (in no specific order) I like about my job. Even though being a cashier at a grocery store is not ideal, it's a job, and...well, you'll see. 1. Going on break with my dad sometimes. Because, you know, we work in the same store. It's pretty cool. 2. I love the people I work with soooooo much! Mainly the ones during the day, because I don't know any of the high school kids that work evenings, because I rarely work evenings. 3. Being the "party animal". nuff said. 4. Watching a cashier ID someone for alcohol, and him telling us that he doesn't even have a photo ID since his license was taken away for DWI. Yeah, maybe he should rethink his purchase... 5. Now when I hear the name of a vegetable, I automatically think of its PLU. Dates: 3047. Cabbage: 4069. Bananas: 4011. Tree Ripe Peaches: 4044. Eastern Peaches: 4403. Nectarines: 4378....
