My life.

My boyfriends car is finally fixed. I was surprised to find him in my drive way the other day, but it was nice. I usually have to drive at least a half an hour to get to him, causing me to become sick of it. Plus watching all my money go into my tank for gas is hard to cope with. I made him come with me to babysit though, he was beyond thrilled ha ha. It was convenient for me to finish my homework while he kept Grant entertained with the Wii. They played a lot of Mario or in Grants' term "armio". I think my boyfriend riled him up more than necessary. He didn't fall asleep until eleven thirty, pushing midnight. We also went to the local library, it saved me a whole fourteen dollars. That is a lot to spend on a book since I am still on a college budget. The books for a psychology assignment. After I read it, it would just sit on my shelf and collect dust so it would of been pointless to buy it anyway. I also found out when I picked Grant up from day care that he had a blonde haired girl that caught his eye. I wonder if at age four we all had crushes and started kissing. I told him he had the case of the cooties that he was always telling me about when I mentioned girls in general. We also rented "That's My Boy" which was hilarious if you like non stop raunchy
 humor that Adam Sandler is known for in his films.

Other than babysitting I would have to say this was one of my most chilled out weekends in a while compared to last weeks stressful one. I ignored many phone calls plus texts, and relaxed. Catching up on my homework was the only stressful part since I am a huge procrastinator.

My life

Stress. One of the main components we all experience on a weekly sometimes daily basis, depending on our situations. My situation this week was definitely classified as daily stress. Everybody wants my advice, opinion, and time lately. I feel so smothered. College on top of all of this is an over load, my nerves are shot. I just want to scream.

Besides all the stress my weekend wasn't completely bad. I played a lot of Wii with my friends and family. Everybody loves to Just Dance and of course play the classic Donkey Kong all night, plus I kicked my boyfriend's butt at euchre (:


On top of all this one of my best friends, Kayla, now works with me at my job. Its been pretty good so far, I like training her. We bump heads occasionally, but I told her she has to understand its' my job to tell her what to do. Kayla and I go to the same church too. This weekend at our church there was a bazaar. I never understood why it was called that until I had to partake at the event. People were lined up at the door before we even opened. To top it off my family and I made cupcakes, cookies, pies, cakes, chocolate covered pretzels, and caramel apples. It took forever, baking is definitely not going to be in my near future plans.

I also almost went to a haunted house but it turns out my boyfriend is just as freaked out by them as I am. I had to give him crap for the rest of the weekend. He explained why so I would stop, but I couldn't help myself. Jokes just kept flying out of my mouth, that's just the type of person I am. Then, unfortunately he snapped, long story short, no more jokes. Next weekend we compromised for a flashlight corn maze.

My Life

Its ironic how fate is so unbelievable. With in the past year I have had three of my best friends from high school come to me, out of all people, for advice. After all the ups and downs we have faced, I never imagined that would happen. Then to top it off every single one of their boyfriends have called me a "bad influence". I don't understand that. Technically as of now my life consists of nothing to classify me as a "bad influence". I guess if they are still dwelling on the past its slightly understandable, but people change. Judging people for their past is clearly unfair, just like judging a book by its cover. We all do it though, even if you don't want to admit it. Its like a habit that's hard to shake, a flaw that we all posses, or clearly just human nature. Even if I was a "bad influence" I couldn't force anyone to be like me, everyone has the chance to choose their own decisions in life.

Helping my best friend figure out what to do with her relationship of three years wasn't the only crisis my weekend obtained. We woke up to the ambulance on Saturday, my boyfriends paralyzed Uncle had a stroke. It turned out to be his second one, the first one had taken most of his speech away. Last I heard he was in critical condition. Instead of going to the hospital my boyfriend and I watched his nephews and niece. They are some of the craziest kids I now know, if you would have been there you would have agreed. I was so exhausted from the chaos I passed out by ten on a Saturday. That has never happened to me, maybe its part of growing up. I feel so lame.

My Life.

For the first time since my freshman year of high school I caught up with my old best friend. We went to Bad Axe to run some errands. The rest of my day consisted of studying. I just finished my quizzes over the two chapters my psychology teacher decided to give us to make up for last weeks no quizzes. Shocker there.

Watching the Presidential debate is another task I have yet to tackle for my weekend agenda. Two hours just seems like a waste of my time to watch two people who most likely will fail at their job. I had to do a report on the topic of the four procedures that qualify you to become our next President. I received an A- on a subject that I said is corrupt and definitely needs change. I'm thinking my professor agreed with my obvious statements.

Work this week was slightly complicated. Some how I managed to get a "muffler burn" that was hard to hide. I also received an earful from my family about that unfortunate beyond noticeable mark. I was innocent though. I didn't put it there, scouts honor.

I baby-sat quite a bit this weekend too, so trust me when I say you are never too old for a Disney movie. We watched Pocahontas, Bambi, and The Lion King which are still some of my favorite cartoons. The movies of our generations just don't compare to those of the past. Here's a fun fact, The Little Mermaid was one of the first Disney movies ever created. Grant, the four-year old I watched, had Bronchitis so the lack of energy led to our movie marathon. Hopefully, I have built up an immune system within the past four years I have baby-sat him to keep me from coughing. When his parents came home, thankfully they didn't have any small bills. It was a nice bonus to fill up my gas tank. (:

My Life


This week I did a little bit more relaxing thanks to my psychology teacher. Understanding the expectation was definately asking too much out of us, he decided to give us a week off on our quizzes that are usually due every week. I took full advantage of this opportunity and decided to go to the concert at Central Michigan University. New Boyz and B.O.B were playing there. It wasn't as much fun as I hoped it would be. I was in general seating which was the first mistake. Sweating, being crammed in between some strangers, and constantly being pushed were just some of the bonuses. B.O.B. decided to go crowd surfing in a crowd that dropped him.  After the concert we relaxed while watching “Across the Universe”. It turned out to be a very interesting movie that I suggest everyone should watch. It opened my eyes to the reality of all the issues before I was even born. I had a sudden motivation after we watched it, decided to get up at two in the morning, and leave. The only bonus to driving that late was the no traffic equaling no road rage.

Camping is one of my favorite things to do.  We played corn hole, passed out candy, and played one of my favorite games, polish golf. The tricker –treaters were adorable in all the many costumes from frogs to princesses. I refused to go into the haunted house due to the fact I have no tolerance for anything scary. At the end of the day I found the secret stash of leftovers, filled up my backup, and made a sneaky get away.  One of my best friends went with me to my friends after. By the time Sunday strolled around I was exhausted but still had to prepare for my exam on Monday.
