Vindicated

I finally saw V for Vendetta!!! All of my friends have been pushing me to see it for so long, and i finally did. And i LOVED it. It really hit me at the end (this will not ruin anything i promise) when everyone has their masks on and they are united in revolution, but then they take their masks off one by one and you see the faces of the living and the dead. It gave me chills. It just shows how we are united in one cause, but individual in our additions to the cause and in our personalities. It was amazing, I have to see it again because it had so many connections to favorite books of mine- Count of Monte Cristo, Faust and countless Shakespeare plays. If you have not seen it, go see it today.

Also, today I had my interview to be an EFY counselor and i will know in 2-4 weeks if i make it! I was so nervous, but luckily a friend from my ward was in the interview with me, so having him there made me less nervous.

And! Remember that girl that chewed on her hymnbook in my class? Well, her slightly less awkward friend today decided that she needed to sing "You Can't Stop The Beat" super loud to the class before it started. And she didn't know all of the words so it went something like this -- Motion of the ocean and the sjlkdaf froma dn fjsadkl adfjsdkfsjk adfjlds sjlskjf-- and then she'd skip to the chorus which she knew most of. And then sometimes her chewy hymnbook friend would sing a long. It was awkward.

And. Lauren comes to visit me in about 2 weeks!

The End!

Awkward Moments Define My Life



So you know those awkward dances you do with people as you are walking? i want to go left, and he wants to go right, and we keep on dancing? well a few weeks ago, i was walking on campus and this guy and i start the dance, but we're relatively far away, so i figure, it'll work itself out. well, it didn't. and the next thing i know, we were right into each other. really. we were standing against each other. if i had been a few inches taller, we would have been kissing. then he moves me so one side. i laugh awkwardly and say thanks, bye. and he mumbles something unintelligible. it doesn't seem that awkward, and its not the most awkward story of my life, but i thought it was worth sharing. Happy day!

Dead Plants


So yesterday i went to take a test in the testing center and i had procrastinated taking it a WHOLE ton. so i went in to take it finally, and first the guy that hands me my test is absolutely adorable and he is so funny and nice, and hes from poughkeepsie which is cool. anyways, so i go in and start taking my beastly test, and i like to sit up against the wall. So im writing and all of a sudden this girl yells "ITS SNOWING!!!" so everyone looks out the windows with crest fallen faces, mostly because no one is wearing warm clothes. but since it was night time, it was impossible to tell if it was snowing or not. who really knows where the girl was or why she decided to yell that it was snowing, but it wasnt. but it was funny.
then i was looking around at all of the plants and i started making this analogy about how we are all our own plants and we're growing in knowledge and how my professor always talks about how tests are meant to make us smarter and then i look at the plant above me and its DEAD. and i think oh great, my knowledge plant is dead. Then i look over at the wall next to me and someone had written in HELP!!! and i wanted to laugh, but i also got a little scared. first my knowledge plant is dead and then it says help on the wall next to me! bad signs...bad signs...
and then the cute testing center guy started walking around "patrolling" which didnt help my concentration. but he was so cute! but i think i prevailed against all the random things and i think i got at least an 80%. so im happy.
and this has been a lame blog, but i was being hassled by Soupy. :) Enjoy!
