Please tell me that Spring Break is making it's wonderful return soon. I'm so tired of school this semester. I can't figure out why. I do have some pretty awesome classes, how can you beat independent study where you listen to the boys try to be the next Justin Bieber...answer you can't. For some reason though I've lost all my motivation to wake up and go to class. I must say though when I don't show up to one of my classes it sparks some pretty entertaining texts from my dear friend A. "Kelcey, the aliens have attacked Blake's class, so as a last ditch effort before I'm dragged off to some far away planet...stay in school and um come back? I sort of miss you and watching Harry Potter with you" He totally knows how to make my day.
A did accuse me the other day of being waaaayyyyy too blunt. I guess that's a bad thing? No, just kidding, I know it's a bad thing, but sometimes I can't help it. I hate when people beat around the bush if I hate when it's done to me so why in the world would I do it to someone else? Whatever. I had someone be really blunt with me about something I was being extremely ridiculous about. I can't even be mad at him for it. He did it because we're friends and not to hurt me (although it sort of stung, like getting slapped or more like ripping that stubborn band aid off.) I totally needed someone to force me to see some sort of reality. I can't even be anything except grateful, he saved me many nights of being super confused. So thanks. You know who you are and you rock :)
Can I just say that I hate asking a guy out. Apparently I'm old fashion and I'd rather wait until someone finds me interesting enough to ask out. A keeps telling me to step out of my box. (Did I mention that AJ is totally like the big brother I never got?) He always says that I can't be a wallflower and expect to dance everytime. So being the pain that he is, he's challenged me to talk to at least one boy a day. Wow, this is going to be a lllllooooonnnngggg year ( A and I have classes together until we graduate woo).
Bleh. It's so late. I'm going to bed so I can actually function tomorrow. Peace out girl scout.
"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone."-Audrey Hepburn

Seriously?
Two weeks into the semester and I actually really love every single one of my classes, well except math, but who loves that? My classes are as follows: Stats, Gender in America, British Literature, Western Civilization from the Renaissance to the 20th century, Psychology, Intermountain West. Yes, two sociology classes and psychology...I love it.
As for being twenty-five days into a brand new year I guess it's time to make a list of all the things I'd like to accomplish before it's all over.
Jess leaves for her mission tomorrow. :( Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely excited for her, but it stinks I won't see her all the time now. She'll be a great missionary and the people she teaches are incredibly lucky to get her for eighteen months. I know I'm incredibly lucky to have her as a friend.
Sitting in stats yesterday my teacher was making up a problem for us to figure out and he said that in the United States there are fifty-three states...seriously? I think I should be worried.

- Learn Italian.
- Visit Carolina and Clarice since I haven't seen them in sixteen years.
- Stop being so shy. (this is the goal every year and it never works out.)
- Take my endowments out.
- Find Charade.
- Pick Behavioral Analysis or Marriage Counseling. (I know it's a strange combination.)
- Go skydiving. (this one is going to take FOREVER)
- Re-learn the Waltz.
- Be in a play or two.

Days like this I wish the sun wouldn't set
I'm kind of in love with this song. It's amazing. It's also been stuck in my head for two weeks.
Enjoy. :)

Between the lines
Monday is fast approaching. I wish it was still December. I'm not ready to start school again. I went a little crazy and took a full load this semester, in a way it's a good thing I'll be done faster, but who in their right mind would do that to themselves? Gah. Nothing I can do about it now. Tuition=paid. Books=bought. Here we go. I also have to say that my math class will be the only class that I probably won't do that fantastic in...I hate math. As long as I can add, subtract, multiply and divide I think I'm good. Bleh. Stats...not looking forward to you at all. Stats=death.
Listening, it's kind of a big part of my job. I listen to people complain about rates, fees, interest, their husbands, kids etc. Yet when I say something (you'd think what I have to say is semi-important...I mean I am playing with money on their credit cards) no one listens. I don't get it. People call me and ask for answers...when the answer is given they don't listen. It's very irritating. So I've sort of taken up counting to five before I answer anyone. It's silly I know, but it's also a lot better than getting angry with people and having a pow-wow with my boss.
Reading between the lines. Some people are incredibly good at it...others not so much. Or maybe they just choose to ignore what you're really trying to say. There's one person that I can't just come right out and say what I'd like to so sticking with hoping he'll just pick up on what I'm trying to say. Can't say that so far that's worked out to well for me. I guess when someone doesn't respond they either have nothing to say or get what you are trying to say and think that no response is better than a mean one. Apparently I need help, although some of you have known this for a while, it's recently been brought to my attention. I guess I'm special when it comes to talking to a certain person. Nothing ever comes out right and I end up looking really really stupid. Case in point I get so nervous talking to him that instead of just coming right out and asking him out, I beat around the bush and hope that he can just read between the lines of "we should hang out sometime" to what I'm really trying to say. I guess things only go right in a Taylor Swift song. Too bad. So in case you're reading this, when I ask you to hang out it's my weird way of asking you out on date. It'd be nice if you would respond. I think you fall under the category of ignoring what I'm trying to say. Rude.
On a side note I totally want glasses like Ben Folds. They're pretty stinking cool. I seriously want them. Also who ordered the snow? Don't order more. Please and Thank you. :)

"Tell me darling, can I get a break somehow?"
I've had the same stupid song stuck in my head for 4 days. HELP! Oh well it's better than a week ago when Frosty the Snowman was stuck in my head.
Anyway Christmas was fantastic this year! Although I didn't get a puppy (I've been trying since I was 5 so no big shock that he wasn't under the tree this year) I did get lots of other cool stuff. :) Can't complain at all this year, but who would complain during this time of year?
So at work we were talking about the upcoming year and all the fun things that everyone had planned and somehow we got on the topic of things that you regret or are thankful that happened to you this year. I honestly could only think of one thing that I was grateful for this year...Sigma, but everyone already knows that. Now though thinking about the flip side to the question one thing you regret...I have one it's pretty silly and I don't really know if it should be something I regret because it's just really silly. Over the summer this year I met a boy. This boy is pretty incredible let's just get that out of the way right now. I kind of thought he was attractive then I started talking to him....turns out he's even better than I thought. He made me laugh and had a killer smile. Yeah, if you haven't guessed I totally fell for him. Crap. I knew he'd only be around for the summer before heading back up to school, but it was only one semester and lucky for me it was his last. We became pretty good friends, at least that's what I'd say, and of course the summer ended. He left and we didn't really talk much. Here's the part of the story that makes me want to crawl under a rock and hide. I thought about the boy everyday while he was gone. Yep. Everyday. I feel a little silly sharing that, but it's the truth. So as you can imagine the semester was horrible because I couldn't get him out of my head. I wasted an entire semester thinking about him. Ridiculous? Yeah you could say that. Here's the kicker though I FINALLY get the kid out of my head and I find out he's back from school. All graduated and back. Will I do anything about his being home now? Probably not. So I regret being so shy. Yeah sure I can admit in a blog that I really like someone. Woo go me. Seriously though what I know I'll regret most this year is not doing a thing. Just sitting back watching someone else be bolder than I ever will be.
So my New Years resolution this year....actually being bold and doing something instead of sitting back doing nothing. Easier said than done, but I'm going to do it. Who knows, maybe something good could come from this. :)

Winter Wonderland
Snow. It's so pretty to look at. Fun to play in. An absolute nightmare to drive in. I really wanted a white Christmas, but I was kind of hoping it would snow on the days when I didn't have things to do. Bleh. Whatever. It's soooo great to look out and see all the snow. White Christmas I will get. :)
This time of year is my favorite. Not the whole everyone rushing around and everything being so busy, but the fact that you get to spend a lot of time with your family. My family means the world to me and to have all this time with them is amazing. We have such a great time together and laugh like crazy. It's great. I wish it could be like this all the time.
I've decided that this year I should actually express graditude (yes, I'm aware I should have done this for Thanksgiving, but it makes more sense to do it now.) to the one person who gave my family the best gift in the entire world. So story time and of course many thanks to this individual.
As some of you know my little sister is adopted. For those of you who didn't know...now you do.
She's an amazing person. For only being eleven she's extremely talented and smart. So to Cristen...you are an amazing person who thought of more than just yourself. I don't think you really know just how grateful I am of your one act that gave me my sister. I couldn't think of a better gift to be given to someone. You'll forever have a special place in my heart because you gave my family Rylin. I'll forever be grateful that you gave her to us. So it may seem really simple, but it's the best I've got...Thank you Cristen. Thank you so much.
Sitting here staring at the picture of the temple in my room got me to thinking about how many weddings I've been to this year...most of them have been married in the temple and I must say those are my favorite. Going to the receptions or even hanging around outside the temple for the happy couple to come out is just awesome. Everyone who was present for it has a glow about them. Do I envy them? You bet. One day I'll have that because I refuse to settle for anything less than having my husband and family for eternity. This seems so random, but one of my dear friends got married yesterday and just watching her...she looked absolutely beautiful and had this look in her eyes that one day I want to have too. She's probably the most beautiful bride I've seen and did I mention she glowed too? Does it have something to do with the fact that she got married in the temple? Pretty sure it does. One day. One day I'll have it too. Moral of this story...I love the temple. :)
Now I'm off to read my scriptures...I love reading the story of the birth of Christ. Best Christmas story ever? You bet.

"What's Twilight?"
So I've given up on that 30 days thing. I made it a whole 12 days. Woo.
Anyway...finals are over. Whew. Only one I'm pretty sure I sucked it up on...math....I hate math. It's stupid.
Race and Ethnicity was easy so was my Music Theory and Marriage and Family finals. Easy. Super easy.
I'm so glad that fall semester is over. I'm ready for spring semester. All those classes will be really great.
As far as winter formal goes....I had fun. It was a good excuse to wear a pretty dress again. Although now I remember why I don't really like dances, but it was still really really really fun. It was nice to be with all my friends and just not worry about the stress with finals. :) Everyone looked fantastic too. It was fun...a lot of fun.
Criminal Minds is by far the best show ever. I finished season 5 and now have to wait for season 6 to come out. The things people say, namely Reed, in the different episodes crack me up. There was one that made me laugh for like 20 minutes. I know right? How could such a serious show make me crack up for that long? It was funny. One of the episodes ws dealing with a singer who "played" a vampire for his singing career...here is what made me laugh. (Reed, just a quick btw, is a nerd. Full on nerd. Who never gets any jokes that the team tells him.)
JJ: Her password was Cullen.
Reed: Cullen?
JJ: You know as in the Cullen family from Twilight?
Reed: What's Twilight?
Yep..."What's Twilight?" It made ma laugh. I have no idea why I found it so funny, but it was. Hence the title of this post. :)
