2 Years Later

Long time no post. I blame facebook. I am working on my Natural Resources degree and hoping to transfer soon. Or get a good summer job so I can get experience and can afford more options.

House Sitting

I have the opportunity to house sit for a few weeks, today I am sick as no other and missed a day of work. Bleh. I don't like missing work, I feel as though I am letting my coworkers down. But I have had difficulty breathing deeply, have a fever, and a nasty cough. So being outside in the snow all day after staying up most of the night coughing, and potentially getting my coworkers sick...not a good idea. Nap now.

Work

Now that I am working, and getting paid, I have found that I don't want to eat the candy bar that I can now afford, I only need a handful of chips to satisfy me, and I haven't thought about ice cream until just now. I haven't noticed if I have lost any weight, (the scale says from 144-154 daily) but I like being outside and have found that I am a happier person...mostly.

Flakes

I woke up this morning and looked outside, and saw that is was "snowing" outside. It only lasted about ten minutes, but we had snow, I love snow.

Proud or Distirbed?

Last night my cat, Nelly, caught her first mouse (first since we've gotten her) and like a good thoughtfull cat, she brought it up into my parents room, still alive. Earlier that day, my mom had gone downstairs to get something, and saw Nelly at the door that led to the no so nice part of the basement. Nelly looked up at her and started meowing away, so my mom opened the door and she was off like a shot. Since we couldn't close the door and trap her back there, my mom left the door open and continued on with her business. Which is why, she later carried a still living mouse upstairs to show us she is taking care of us.

Today she got another one, or the same one since the other cat scared her away from hewr first catch and proptly lost it...by then they were outside so it wasn't too bad. I love my cat.

Finals

The last month has been crazy, things have gone wrong every where and I am up to my neck in computer and car repairs, well one computer is completely dead, so I haven't been able to use it for my finals this last week. I still have a few finals to go but I have already gotten one over with, and my grades aren't that bad this semester.

I am soon to start applying for jobs, have to wait until I am no longer a student, but once school is over, here come the applications...as many as I can get in the small town I live in.

Kristie, that babysitting money you gave me saved me with the car repairs, it wasn't too painful of a drain on my savings.

Tanko Bushi Japanese Dance

On March 6th, my Japanese class and I, went to our local mall and performed the Tanko Bushi.
It is a Japanese Dance and we had lots of fun. I don't have a video of us dancing, only one that demonstrates the dance. So if you imagine a bunch of college students in kimonos dancing this on a stage, then you kinda know what we looked like.
I'll try to get some pics, will have to do some work with the digital camera though.
