Valentine's Day?

Really?  Who invented this holiday?  If you can't tell someone you love and/or appreciate them every other day of the year, what is going to make February 14 so special?  I'm just glad it's over.  I'm sick of seeing mushy (stupid) cards, flowers, and ridiculously packaged chocolates come through my line at work. I'm sick of everyone being like "what are YOU doing for Valentine's day?" as if it's actually an important day.  Nothing, thank you very much.

Oh and thanks for the reminder that I'm single.  No problem, usually.  But it's pretty annoying when everyone is all la-dee-da about this stupid day and "oh, you're single? I'm sorry...."  Whoop-dee-freakin-doo.  I'm glad I'm single.  For the moment.  Hello, I wouldn't be going to Brazil otherwise!

So that's half a rant.  The other half I don't want to get into right now.  Or probably ever, on this blog.  But hey, on the bright side...remember that assignment I talked about the other day?  The paper? Yeah, it's done!  DONE!!!!  At least, the draft is.  I just have to turn in the final paper and an oral report this week, and then I can prepare for the final! And I'm going to take my Bio final probably Wednesday morning.  Which means working my tail off until I leave for New York, but after that, I lose another 30 pounds of stress, and I can enjoy my last week here!  It's crazy to think I only have two weeks left.  Time is seriously flying by.  I'm glad though.  I can't wait!

Fortune Cookies can be profound..

So I was at work last night, at KBYU, and they fed us dinner. Sweet, free food! As a college kid with almost no money to my name, I'll gladly eat food that someone not only pays for, but pays me to eat! I've learned to like a lot of foods this way... I never used to enjoy Chinese food, but now I do. And last night, our food came from Panda Express. Seeing as I've never eaten authentic Chinese food from China, I don't know how "real" this food is, but it's pretty delicious. But that is not the point. The point is, half the fun of eating Chinese food is to read and laugh at the fortune inside the fortune cookie! Especially from Panda Express, where the fortunes are usually pretty lame, silly, or in fact MISfortunes! As I cracked my cookie open last night, my heart was pounding with anticipation... what would I get? Would it change my LIFE?!!? Okay, so I was just curious, and my heart wasn't pounding. :) I read the little slip of paper, and g...

Eu Amo Meloncia!

(NOTE:  Received on 3/30/2010) Hello family! Well, this week I did something different.  I kept a list in my agenda of things to write to y'all about, instead of just writing one on the bus on the way back from the Temple, and it is LONG!  But most of the things are just things to mention, not really to talk about.  So let me start with that! Choir last Tuesday was awesome...I played the piano of course, and the choir sang "Scripture Power".  Remember in primary when we would lift our scriptures up during the chorus?  Yeah, guess what 100 missionaries did during choir!  It was hilarious and so awesome.  We have so much fun here! Soccer here is intense.  Our teacher, Irmão Mendes, has the radio on his cell phone.  One day in class, he pulled it out, turned it on, and we listened for a few seconds to a soccer game.  Long enough to hear "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL...
