Just an ordinary day.

I'm still getting the hang of this whole blog thing.  I mean if people have enough time to read about my life, I might as well make it an interesting waste of time!  But I am stumped on how to complete this task.  So I've decided to just write about a day, an ordinary day, in my shoes.  (I just realized I ran two days together so I guess it will be two ordinary days!)  Maybe this will make whoever is reading this feel better about their day.  Or when I'm reading this 20 years down the road, I can laugh during my mid life crisis.
p.s.  The title reminds me of that song I used to listen to in middle school...just a day, just an ordinary day...

Thursday October 18th.

I wake up around 6:30AM to study for the Finance exam at 9:30AM.  I convince myself that if I get out of bed I can drink hot chocolate while studying.  After studying I head up to campus to take the exam, and surprisingly I think I might have done ok!  Knock on wood.  Of course I have to blow my nose yet again...I've been sick off and on for the last month, if not longer.  When people ask if I'm sick now, I have to think about it and remember that, oh ya I am still sick I guess.  Lately I just sound like a barking dog.  I go to pick up a Corporations, Partnerships, Estates and Trusts textbook to read over the weekend for a tax competition.  Another textbook...how exciting!  I head home and get a call from my dad to work out my ticket for Africa! Hopefully by this time next week the ticket will be set in stone :)  I told my dad not to worry because if I do die over there they will pay up to 50,000 to bring me back.  And if I am hospitalized or something he can get the joy of flying over to see me in Africa!  I'm sure that reassured him. I decided today was the day I was going to trim up my hair.  Not the bottom, but just relayer it!  Surprisingly Hollywood Clips didn't let me down and my hair is nice and refreshed to grow out before the measuring of the hair on 12/12/12 to see whose is longest.   I had a nice little chat with my brother and took a nice nap.  Waking up at 4:28pm I realized...shoot I have a meeting on campus at 4:30pm so I rushed up there real quick in my car and prayed I wouldn't get yet another parking ticket.  After the meeting I came home and got ready to go to the Pumpkin Walk with a guy in my marriage prep class.  The things people can do with pumpkins!  It was quite impressive.  It was good to get to know him and we even had some hot chocolate.  I thought his response to what child do you think I am in my family?  5 out of 6... was funny.  Usually people can guess I am the oldest, now whether that is a good thing or not...After calling Kelcey we decided we would just go to her aunts house and sleep on her floor since she pretty much lives on ours :)  We saw all her cute decorations for her friends bridal shower (Owl you need is love....ahhhhh), I relived my piano days playing mario,  and then went in the hot tub, a recent purchase of her aunt and uncle!  I slept like a rock on that floor and had quite the weird dream about Jacy that I do not wish to record.  

Friday October 19th.

After breakfast at their aunt and uncles, we head home and do some homework and such...pinterest...you know how that goes.  I actually got quite a bit done before our Fall Break adventure to the thrift shops!  Kelcey met us there on her lunch.  Oh man.  I am addicted to thrift shops now.  They have so many great things!  Kecley got a nice old sewing machine that weighs more than my backpack does some days...and that is saying something!  Jace and Kelc are teaching me to use that right side of my brain since sometimes I don't think it gets used all that much in accounting...imagine that.  We stopped by Little Ceasars and I discovered a new favorite Italian cheese bread.  It will probably take two years off my life but holy cow that stuff is good.  Jacy and I explore another thrift shop before I am doomed to work for the next 6 and a half hours, making call after call without a puzzle pass (don't worry I got a puzzle pass Saturday! Booya Grandpa as Melissa would say).  
After work Kelcey came over and we had the best night ever.  Milkshakes, popcorn, painted pumpkins and even carved one, enjoyed some tunes, and started...(keyword) a movie!  (I can never stay awake in those things...)  

Look the right side of my brain does work!

Well...that pretty much describes it.  And you know what...  I love it.  Life is great.
