how i love sonic dr pepper.

today, was the 2nd day in a row i have been to sonic during happy hour for a large dr pepper. there is something about a fountain dr pepper that is better than the bottle or can. maybe the special sonic ice. i dunno. anywho, this makes me happy. :) update, i am not going to my real estate class this weekend, i called yesterday to register, but the class did not make, so it is off next weekend to do that... at a different location might i add. i have my first statistics test on tuesday! EEK! we did have a review today, a FULL REVIEW. i am sure jenny and i will be up for a few good hours memorizing what "muh" or "moo" is and the standard variaion and correlation variance or chebby chev's rule (no now "the twist" guy!). but anywho, i came into the house the other night after bootcamp and my little sister was drying a dish, this is very odd for my four-year old sister! but she was just smiling at me, and the first thing that comes to my mind is "what did she do?" but no. that sweet little girl decided to get her ears pierced and SHE DID! she was so excited. they are little pink flowers and she did not cry (better than i did at SEVEN!). this child has started a trend in her pre-school class.. another girl got hers done the very next day with the same earrings as kaci. haha.. amazing how these little girls look up to one another. but i am gonna be off to bootcamp in a few. ta ta for now!

Hello World.

So, it seems that I will post one blog and then I will forget about it for a few weeks. Woops. HA. So here I am after my abscence of a few day... weeks, whatever. We have been in school... what two, three weeks now. I am already tired of it. Well considering I am only going two days a week for two classes it is REALLY not that bad. This weekend I will make my first trip to the big city for my real estate classes. I took two of my classes through corespondence and for the final three I really wanted a classroom setting so this weekend will be a day and a half trip. Alone. SCARY! But I need to do it, and I know the entire month of Feb I will be panicked but I know it will pay off, somehow. Anywho, Boot camp today. I am really enjoying this class. Tuesdays are my favorite because it is kickboxing day! Tuesday is also my favorite because we do not run on Tuesdays. :):) Ok, so I better get back to work blog world.

All About Nothing

Well, in my spare fifteen minutes before 5:00 I thought I might post a little something. About what I don't know but I am sure if I ramble on for a few mintes I will get to some topic. Well, school starts next week. There's a topic. I feel like this Christmas break has FLOWN by!! WHY?!? I hardley got to spend time with Kristin. :( Well, considering the situation it is alright but I hope I get to see her before she goes back to Arkansas. I really thought this month would creep along. I don't want to drive 30 minutes and back to school. blah. Well atleast Jenny is in two of my classes. Oh, Kaci (you know Kaci) turns 5 tomorrow. FIVE. I remember she was a baby when we moved to Paris. Where did the time go??? We are having her party at a Pretty Princess Room - which is exactly what is in its name. It's a room. In a clothing store. Painted pink. With GLITTER. And a castle on the wall. Any 5 year old girls dream. I am sure there will be hillarious pictures so I will be sure to post those next week after her party on Saturday. Wow, seven more minutes. Hmmm. Well. What's next? OH, I have been addicted to the Food Network website! I look up these really tasty recipes, like I will ever cook them. They are mostly from Paula Dean cause let's face it, as much as I love Rachel Ray, cumin and coreander and endive aren't coming anywhere near my kitchen. I like to look up things that I might actually cook one day.. yes ONE DAY. I do love to cook but it's hard to when you still live at home and there is someone conveniently there to do that for you. THANKS DAD! I like simple things that have amazing flavor. The thing I looked up today was Baked Macaroni and Cheese. YUMM. BUT considering I have started this new bootcamp fitness thing, it doesn't look like too much macaroni or any pasta will be my friend. (but if you won't tell, I won't tell ;) ) So anywho, I guess that's all I have to say about that.

Happy 2008

Since I have not blogged in QUITE some time, and I got a link to my blog.. thought I might give it some fresh-ness since November? December? Anyway, the new year is here. (look at that it rhymed!) I am not making a resolution this year. Actually, now that I think about it, I never have. Woops. I don't think making a rule for myself that I will not follow and then feel guilty about not following it is very bright. So ANYWHO, my 2008 GOALS are not too complicated. But are things I think are important in this point in my life:

1. To become a better WOman of God.
-- Read my Bible and Devotianal and talk to those (Kristin) that I know can help me with questions and I am pretty sure if she cannot help me she has got someone who can. :)
2. To be healthier.
-- I do not want to make the "diet" resolution cause I know I will never follow that. I watched The Biggest Loser Marathon and if a man can lose 200 pounds in a year... I can drink less dr pepper and run every now and again.
3. To be a better student.
-- I was a straight A student in high school. But that changed.. DRASTICALLY. Yes, college is harder but I can do better. READ BOOKS for real. My goodness.
4. To make sure I am happy.
-- I spent a lot of 2007 worrying about what other people. Some of them family and some of them friends. I lost one of my best friends(as in we are not friends anymore) and I was so hurt when it happened but now that it is over I am not worried anymore. I realized she was a burden on me. Why would I want a friend to walk all over me. I have found comfort in a few old friends from grade/middle school that are amazing. I know these people will help me in deciding what may be the best for me. I am not trying to be selfish but to make sure I do not put something so important to someone else in front of what I believe is right. I will not let someone walk over what I believe.

So there you have it. My little list. :)

Have a happy 2008!!!
