Shenanigans

Pregaming
Sometimes blogs are kind of hard to write and my bosses totally feel for us so they sent us some topics we could possibly write about. Since teaching you guys the perfect bp shot was off limits and I don’t know the kuhl kid on dp with hella swag I’m going to tell you about my weekend activities.

So I am currently taking 18 units in school because I honestly think that when I signed up for classes I was actually trying to kill myself. Between working like 35 hours a week and all the stupid and sometimes unnecessary homework I really don’t have time for a social life. But since starting my job I’ve made a lot of friends and we hang out after work and it’s so nice be popular again.

There’s a contract that I signed saying that I can’t mention co workers names and all that and I don’t know if that applies while I’m outside of work so I’m just not going to say anyones name.

We started on Thursday because we are that crazy. I’m totally kidding about the crazy thing, we honestly just went bowling and ate in n out and I only won one of the games so I’m disappointed about Thursday. 

I just can't be serious
Friday night was not all crazy, I went home and slept well in order to prepare for Saturday night. I got called in early Saturday which I guess is good because I was probably going to spend all of my money anyway. So Saturday night finallllyyyy comes and one by one everyone gets picked up and the fun times begin. I love most of my coworkers so hanging out with them outside of work is always really really fun. We had a little sleepover and we just told jokes and ate Doritos all night. Most of the jokes start out, “So I was stocking the meat department” and I guess regular people wouldn't get it but it’s a grocery store joke. We had to wake up really early but a few of us fell back asleep later. I was one of those few that fell back asleep (because I'm a lazy). 

But unfortunately the night ended and I had to go back to work, I woke up with a sore throat and a cough so work wasn't fun at all but I made it through.

My weekend lacked love from cats and my mom but I had a good time and who knows maybe there will be another Doritos party in the very near future. You can read my latest blog here and until next time!

Perfection

I feel like I should apologize for my lack of posting but life happens. School and work got really stressful all at once and last week was sort of hell but I’m back and I made it out alive. 

There's been a lot of talk about death lately and especially with that lady who was doing assisted suicide or whatever and it made me think about what I would do if I knew that it was my last day alive. So here's what I would do:

I'd wake up and hug my cats for a little bit then I would get ready for the day. My Grandma Jaccie would pick up my mom and I and we would go to Santa Clarita for a family day. Everyone would be there too. We'd get there at the same time as Jailene and I would hug Dj  really tightly. I would probably say something rude to my brother in law and then go inside my Grandma Kim and Grandpa Monty's house. My Auntie April, Josh, Kaitlyn, Travis and Austin would be there and we'd play in the pool together. Kaitlyn, Travis and I would probably run across the street to Kathryn's and wake up Brent and Sage from one of their naps and then we'd steal Kathryn's food and go in the pool then run back across the street to my Grandmas house. And eventually Kathryn and Steve and Brent and Sage would come over too.

Grandma Kim would keep her promise and make tater tots with dinner and Josh would make jalapeƱo poppers and we'd eat tamales like it was Christmas and none of this food makes sense together but that's exactly what we would do. Kaitlyn and I would eat too many chips and probably get in trouble with Grandma Jaccie for spoiling our dinner. Then I'd tell her that I'm an adult and I can do whatever I want but she would give me that look and I'd stop anyway. 




My Uncle Chris would actually show up and he'd have Madison and only Madison with him. Then for the most random reason in the world Kaitlyn and I would run outside like we did a couple years ago and we'd wait for Uncle James to drive up and we'd cry and hug him and complain he's too skinny. Lastly my papa will come with Mary, Gary and Paige and we'd all go inside and we'd just sit and talk and laugh. Everyone would talk about how pretty I am and they'd envy everything about me as usual. Jailene, my brother, Kaitlyn, Gary and I would all huddle together and make fun of everyone and laugh until we cry. Then I'd go cuddle on the couch and make fun of some more people with Josh because that's just what we do.


This is my perfect day, and this is how I would spend the last day of my life if I could. The only problem with this perfect day is that I would never want it to end. The most disappointing part would be leaving and driving home. I miss my family a lot so just thinking about this makes me sad because it'll be a long time until it really happens. 


Also I'm just throwing this out but if Kanye West wants to stop by too I'll be totally fine with that. This is probably completely random and no one probably knows who any of these people are but you'll catch on someday. You can read my last blog post here and until next time! 

XOXO

On To The Next One


You know that song Fabulous from HSM 2? When Sharpay sings, "It's out with the old, in with the new". That's how I feel about my October to November transition. October was great and all but I have a feeling amazing things are coming in November. Like maybe making an imaginary relationship real. Although I never get enough sleep and sometimes sweeping at work sucks; life is going really well. I've made a lot of friends at work which is surprising considering I'm socially awkward and bad at talking to people. There were so many things I loved about October but I'm definitely ready to take on November. Also that selfie has nothing to do with this entire post, I just like how pretty I am.



October Favorites


I just discovered this new store called Heavenly Couture and everything there is sixteen dollars and under, can you say Ballin' On A Budget? We all know that I have a shopping problem so obviously this is one of my top October favorites. I've spent way to much money on clothes honestly but I look super cute all the time so it's pretty "worf it" as Big Sean would say.


Thrifty's ice cream!! Rainbow Sherbet ice cream is my absolute favorite ice cream of all time. I used to work in an ice cream shop and I definitely ate way too much of it. Most of the time before I go to work I walk over and get some. Maybe it's weird but I like ice cream better when it's cold outside. My favorite part about October and Thrifty's ice cream was walking along state street and listening to the pianos that are put up and down the blocks. I love music and listening the pretty tunes while walking down the street is so peaceful.


I don't like coffee and I'm not really sure how I feel about tea and I'm afraid to try new ones so for right now I'm using hot chocolate on the days I go to school. It looks like I'm drinking coffee like any normal stressed out college student EXCEPT I'm just drinking delicious hot chocolate.

My of course most favorite part of October is the mystery boy I kind of sort of like and right now it's just an imaginary relationship in my head. He probably thinks I talk too much or smile too often but I think he's funny and I tolerate him which is unusual for me. I still haven't completely figured him out so for now he'll remain my mystery boy. My mystery boy who makes me smile and laugh even when I'm grumpy and really just want to sleep. And everyone in my family is probably going to call me the moment they read this and say, "I had to find this out by reading your blog?" in really annoyed voices.


I know this wasn't much but even though I loved October it was super crazy and I didn't have much time to do anything besides sleep and work and go to school so I promise that by the time I post again I'll have lots to say and more exciting things to talk about. Although I think my mystery boy is pretty interesting if I do say so myself. You can read my latest blog post here and until next time!
