Just Me and My Music

So as total inspiration from a friends blog, I'm going to put up some of my favorite tunes and let you listen to them. Now this totally isn't going to be as cool as 'friends' blog, because she has a really unique style in music that you can't help but love completely. So here are some of the songs the I <3

I'm a flip-flop wearin', free carin', California lovin' girl

So after seeing all the amazing pictures of my sister in Jerusalem and seeing all her friends amazing pictures, I thought I better represent with some photos :) These are just some pictures of the last 3 months of my life, and looking back, they've kind of rocked. So as jealous as I am of all those people that are off on some big adventure, I'm happy to be on my own little adventure. It may not be exciting and it will not involve great stories or big romances, but none less it is my adventure and anyone is welcome to come along for the ride anytime.

My life ran away with it self...

My life just got incredibly busy. I came back from an amazing vacation and all of a sudden my life just ran away with it self. My sister is currently in Jerusalem taking classes through BYU and she recently posted her hourly schedule of a typical day. Now granted my typical day does not involve cool stuff like going to the old city of Jerusalem or being woken up by the call to prayer, but none the less I will bore you with my boring and yet busy daily life.

6:30am Wake up to the noise of my little sisters annoying alarm clock and then proceeding to put a pillow over my ears.

6:45am Wake up to my annoying alarm clock, which I typically snooze until seven.

7:00am Officially wake up, now late, I rush to get ready in a short twenty five minutes.

7:25am Leave my house and head to classes at SLCC.

8:00am Attend a computer systems class with a professor that does not speak English.

9:00am Attend History 1700 with a very quirky professor and some very very dumb people.

10:00am Attend International Politics, the only class that shows some potential of decency.

11:00am Attend a Personal Ethics course with a professor with such a thick Russian accent that he might as well just be speaking Russian.

12:00pm Spend a sweet 40 minutes eating lunch and catching up on reading for my next class.

1:00pm Attend English 2010 with some interesting characters.

2:20pm Drive back home.

2:45pm Spend a precious forty five minutes shoving down food and packing a lunch for work.

3:30pm Drive to work

4:00pm Spend a monotonous five hours working on telephones taking surveys.

9:00pm Drive home.

9:20pm Arrive home completely tired and crash into bed after a ten hour day.

I suppose I did this back in high school, but now it seems so much longer. I'm not sure how long I will survive.

My love affair with the ocean

Now I know what your thinking... First of all that is a really tacky title for a post, and its way cliche. But I couldn't come up with anything better and I need to save my creative juices for my actual post, because my creative waterfall is running dry as of late.

So I had the marvelous and blessed privilege to come to Santa Cruz for a week right before classes start. I can't believe it worked out so well. I love California from the bottom of my heart. I've been trying to figure out if everyone loves the beach and the ocean like I do, or if maybe I like it more. I've never had anyone try to explain to me how much they love it and I think I've come to the conclusion that I must love it much much more than most. Today I walked about 3 miles up and down the coast line in Santa Cruz and I can't describe to you how much I never wanted to leave. I've never fallen in love with a boy like the way I've fallen in love with the ocean. The last time I left the beach I really thought it would cause me physical pain. Every time I'm there its like I can breath just a little bit deeper. My entire life seems to be washed away and I can sit there and smell the ocean and not have to worry about anything.

So now that I've attempted to convey my love of the ocean I'm going to write my top five favorite things about nature, what I couldn't live without, things that Jesus really must have put a lot of thought and care into...
