Pish Posh

Well, I am in the midst of studying for finals. More specifically, I am currently in the midst of studying for the final for my Foundations of Social Inquiry class.

The final is in 4 hours and it may or may not kick my butt, so I wonder why I am blogging. I just simply feel too distracted to study. I am at work.

Tomorrow is the last day of finals, and I have 3 left. My plan is to take the one this afternoon, cram-study and take my Social Psychology one tonight, and then take my Spanish one tomorrow.

I've decided to drop my Spanish minor. I want to become fluent in Spanish and the only things the upper-division Spanish courses will do is teach me about the literature and history of the Spanish language. So, if I drop my minor, I can then graduate in December 2011 instead of April 2012. I can THEN also for reals move to Mexico (remember when I told you all I was doing that?) through a program called ILP to teach English/improve my Spanish. One of my friends told me that you can get a Spanish Certificate from BYU...so I feel that living in Mexico for a few months + Spanish Certificate is just as good as a minor. End.

Well, lots of crazy things are going on in my life. As those of you who know me well may have guessed, many of these crazy things center around boys and I must just say it is stressful. But....it will all pan out. I just hate hurt feelings so I hope none of those happen.

Anyways...I just needed to distract myself for a few minutes. Hopefully I have the restlessness out of my system so that I can STUDY. Wish my luck. Ugh.


P.S. My Travie is in AFRICA.

Today.

Today I am irritated. People are bugging me, school is bugging me, work is bugging me, and most of all, I am bugging me. And there's no escaping THAT one.

I need to get away for a while.

Days 29 and 30

Day 29: Favorite TV Shows and Why
-The Office (granted I feel that the quality is steadily declining...and Will Ferrell? Really?)
Why? It is hilarious. It has become my family's TV show. We quote it all the time. What I am saying is that this show is a family bonding experience. Haha. And I love (most of) the awkward humor.
-Boy Meets World
Why? I grew up with that show. It is also hilarious. You just feel like you relate to the characters...and you gotta love the Feeney call. This show has a special place in my heart.

Really those are my only FAVORITES. Shows I also enjoy include:

Community
Parks & Rec
Modern Family
House
Criminal Minds
Desperate Housewives (I know)


Day 30: Movies I Can Watch Again and Again
-Disturbia
-Hook
-Sweet Home Alabama
-Salt
-Get Smart
-27 Dresses
-Inception
-Step Up
-Remember the Titans

Day 27: My Day Job vs. My Passion

My day job is a Customer Service rep/Trainer at BYU Independent Study. Here is my picture from the photo directory in all of its shiny-faced horror.

My dream job....so I hadn't even thought of this until Ashley posted that she wants to be a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. So I'm kinda copying her but I'd TOTALLY love to be an Auror.

Buuut....since the magical world doesn't exist (which I KNOW it doesn't because I absolutely refuse to accept the idea that if it does, I'm a Muggle), my dream job would be working with youth. And I was too lazy to find/make a picture of this. Troubled youth, abused children, whatever. I love it all.

And I really hope that when I'm married and live in a family ward, I'll get called into Young Women. Now I probably jinxed myself.
