Goal Update

So i think I did pretty good this week. I called the Health Center and had an appointment on Monday where the doctor preceded to tell me he wasn't sure what was wrong and that he was referring me to a specialist. So now my specialist appointment is this Thursday at 2 pm.

Next- I got more caught up on my 402 homework but not completely. I'm making progress. I just really need to be completely caught up by the time we go to Vegas. I don't want to have to do homework while I'm on vacation.

And I bought a camera!!! I'm sooo super excited I just can't wait til it gets here. I bought it on Ebay and it's a Canon Rebel XSi DSLR. Again Dad can't know about it for a while but eventually he will find out.

and the last goal I set last week was for my religion class.. which I didn't do.. oh well. But I did actually do my classing which is kinda a first for this semester. So this week.. I'm going to start that class.. :)

New goals:
1. Start D&C class
2. Get completely caught up in 402 (stay caught up in 401)
3. Go to my Doctor's appt and hopefully I'll be told I don't have a brain tumor..
4. and learn how to use the camera I bought. If it comes this week.

Well that's all for now.. I'm eating dinner.. yum! :)

Motivation.. or the lack thereof

So I just got done with my first meeting with my entire council (well minus one). It went well but I had to apologize to the enrichment leaders of the different relief societies because I have a serious problem this semester with being motivated enough to anything productive. I'm pretty far behind on homework for most of my classes. I'm not really doing much with my BSWSA assignment- but really what am I supposed to do anyway besides delegate tasks which happened on Wednesday night (and it was more Fred doing the delegating than me per say). It's like I already have senioritis (spelling?) and I'm only halfway through this semester and I still have one more to go! ugh!

Also I need to sign up for my last religion class (I'm taking it independent study) I need to finish it before April so I can ACTUALLY graduate in April and not technically in August. So here my my goals for this week:

- Sign up for my D&C class and do at least the 1st weeks lesson
- get caught up in 402 (chapters 8-12)
- call the health center (again) to set up appt to get checked out (I've been dizzy a lot lately and it sucks)
- look into cameras more (I need to buy it SOON!- my dad can't know about this.. eek!)

This is a good week to do these things. The elementary school I'm interning at has fall break so I have more time on Thursday and Friday to get stuff done. I don't have to work my second job at all this week and I don't have supervision on Tuesdays for the next 3 weeks because my supervisor is in New Zealand.. This gives me a lot more time to actually get these things done. YAY!

Ok so I want people to hold me accountable for these things - mostly that's you Christina.. and maybe Aunt Mary :) since you are the only 2 who read this.. haha Ok.. now I should go be more productive!

That green-eyed monster...

So it seems I'm not very good at controlling my emotions sometimes. But really.. is that really news? I'm a girl..

All summer I lived alone. I was excited to get roommates when the new semester started. It was a bit of a rocky start with both girls but I get along really well with one.. and not so well with the other. She's fine and all- she's never home so I don't ever really see her but when she is home she's been turning on the air conditioning and leaving the windows WIDE open. Anyways that's not the point of this blog.

I had a friend that was gone all summer and for our last school year she was going to be living in the same complex as me and we were going to have a great year together. Well her roommates are super awesome (I got to know them a bit over the summer while she was gone) and she gets along with them so well. I'm jealous of that.. why couldn't I get the super friendly/cool roommates. I endured the entire summer alone!

Today I sat in my empty apartment (when I wasn't at her apartment) and was just bored. I'm trying to make sure I have other friends around to do stuff with but it doesn't seem to be working. (I need to work harder on that.) So I ended up going down to her place until we went to ward prayer. Recently she's been deciding if she likes this one guy- he's way nice and I keep telling her she should but she's just being a girl (we've talked about how girl brains suck!). When she and her roommate were leaving "linger longer" he asked her if they wanted to go over to their place. I was standing right there but I didn't get asked to join. I'm not a fan of being left out of things especially when it's right in front of me but I wasn't about to invite myself.

Instead I just realized that I HATE jealousy. I've been hanging out with her all weekend and I don't have to go along with her wherever she goes but I don't have anyone else to do stuff with. If my roommates were home I would have been fine staying home but they weren't. So I ended up walking around a bit a moping.. dumb!

Satan is really good at getting me down on myself over the simplest things. I hate it!!! It's not her fault and I don't blame her at all for wanting to go hang out with them but Satan uses things like that to get me to second guess my worth and self-confidence. It's something I'm trying to work on but it's hard. That's why writing it out helps.

I hope when she reads this she isn't mad or anything.. I'm not mad at her- just myself and my really, really dumb girl brain and Satan for using it against me. That's all for now.
