pros and cons list

I found this message I sent to Hunter, one of my best friends freshman year when I couldn't decide which school to go to.
Funny my senior year of high school priorities...

i need some help
i would go to robbie but since he really wants me to go to baylor he isnt so unbiased

so i have to decide between cal poly and baylor and i am not entirely in love with either, but heres the list i made of the good and bad things about both. can you tell me if the things i care about even matter or i should focus on something else/?

BAYLOR:
good: better food, better housing, new/better buildings, larger cafeterias, christian school, good church nearby, awesome gym, my brother, i already have friends there, good education, really hot guys
bad: far from home, and the weather is really humid

Cal Poly:
good: close to home, awesome weather, good education, pretty hot guys
bad: terrible food, bad housing, alot of nerdy/ socially awkward people, not with my brother, too close to my parents, tiny gym


thanks!!!! your the bestest ever!




haha I thought it was funny.

Cramps and hugs

I went down yesterday to see boyfriend because he had the afternoon and night off. He was so tired that we started our time together by taking a long nap. We had dinner with his parents, and then off to the movies. I started feeling crappy once we got there and I wasn't sure if it was having a large meal after not eating since breakfast. But it ended up being some pretty bad cramps. They died down a bit during the movie but after we got out and I stood up and walked around they came back with a vengeance. I didn't want to tell boyfriend in front of all his friends I want to go home, so I waited patiently. And when we got home I got some medicine in me. Jeff asked if there was anything he could do for me, and I asked him to lay down and watch hey arnold with me until the cramps died down. He did gladly, he hates when I don't feel good. He makes me so happy, even when I'm grumpy from cramps. After the first episode they were feeling better but not totally gone, and I wasn't sure if I would be able to fall asleep so we watched another episode. For as much as I hate cramps, I did love having my darling boy there to help me feel better. He's the best.

afternoon dip

I am loving summer with not much to do. Its the first summer since my junior year to not have 40+ hours of work a week. That summer I had to quit my nannying job because I broke my hand, and could do very few things by myself.
But I am loving having free, lazy afternoons to spend by the pool with a magazine and a drink.

birthday weekend

It was Jeff's 21st birthday this weekend. He had the day off so I went down to see him. I got to see camp, where he has spent the last 15 summers. I'm glad I got to see it, its like his version of my ocean city. I am glad we both got to share that with each other.
We went paddle boarding, sailing (I was the mermaid and sailed head first into all the waves), we went to the movies, ate popcorn and junior mints, and had a fun birthday party for him! It was good, I missed him so much. It was nice to see him again, kiss him again, and be in his arms again.

I have so much fun with him. I feel like even our usual movies dates are as fun as 100 bunnies. Especially when we go to a movie theatre where we can put up the arm rests and snuggle, and with popcorn and candy. SUCH a treat!

i get to see boyfriend today

I still get so very very excited to see Jeff. Especially when I haven't seen him in a while, like today, but also during the year just to run into him on campus or have him come over. Today I woke up and started singing and dancing to my song of "I get to see boyfriend today". I was just jumping with anticipation today to see him.

I still try hard to look my best if I haven't seen him in a while. I brush my teeth, wear nice clothes, make sure my hair is nice, give myself a facial and pedicure. I know I don't have to impress him, and he still loves me and thinks I am pretty even when he has seen me, sick, sad, cranky, unshowered, after a workout, tired, stressed, mad, and lazy. But I still like to wow him.

five things

I was busy this week with school and a bit of a scare with Robbie. His tummy stopped from too much fur in it, and he got hypothermia. Poor little one, we got his system going again. And he is back to his rascally self now. Thankfully I have all the meds to cover any emergency they have, and know what to do better than the vets.

I drove up to Frisco to get some more med from the bunny lady, in case we had another emergency. I stopped at whole foods for groceries and IN-N-Out for a grilled cheese, fries, and a chocolate shake. Now that Dallas has In-N-Out one of the few reasons that kept me going back to cali is gone.



I found some gorgeous rings on etsy. Once I feel like I've saved enough money....I just keep spending....I'll get the earrings and a ring for myself. To bad I can't make them myself. Etsy has been so helpful in jewelry class. We made earrings, two rings, and a bracelet this week.






I made myself a delicious pancake breakfast this morning as a reward for all my hard work. I spent from 2-11 in the art building yesterday.




I pulled the car over on mine and Erica's way home from church and ran out to pick some wild sunflowers. I got enough for the both of us. My bunch is keeping me happy on my nightstand. This morning I rolled over and the sun came in through my windows and hit the sunflowers. =)



The last thing is really two things. I am very happy to have gotten our playpen which is the new bun cage. Its so much bigger than their old one, its got enough room so they can chase each other, and stretch. I don't feel so bad leaving them in it all day. And we are all happy robbie is feeling better.

five things

Finding these earrings on etsy. My mom had a similar pair but in pink and she lost one. They are fake, but have been my favorite all my life. I want to buy them, once I feel like I have saved some money. Well really I found a few VERY nice things.


Erica is home and is watching 500 days with me. It's not the same at night without her.


My nice looking chain link bracelet that I MADE.. good job me.


The new cave litter box that the whole family loves! Robbie is in the picture you just can't see him. And Buddy is trying to steal a blueberry out of Rob's mouth.


Oreo Truffles....Katie made them for me. Darn her...I am addicted, it's all I've been eating all day. Erica said "no one likes anything as much as you like those truffles."

my room

I love moving. WHy? I think it's because I get to decorate it and organize it. But Especially after last year, it became the one place that was totally safe in our apartment. I also have been dying to have a huge room my whole life. This year is the first year I get that, and a tv in my room...something I never was allowed before. I love it. Its huge, I can relax on my bed or couch, the bunnies have tons of room to run around.
