So much time.

Why is it that when you are super busy, you can think of 124,492,491,937 things you want to do, but as soon as you are on vacation, that list of 124,492,491,937 things disappears and you can't think of a single thing to do?  Feel free to ponder upon that question while you read the rest of this post.  Let me know when you find an answer.  :)  Here's some more random thoughts for ya.  :)

1.  Staying up late.  I love to sleep.  A lot.  Then why do I always stay up late?  Well, the main reason would be that I HATE getting ready for bed.  The whole process is just obnoxious.  Thus, I just try to avoid it entirely by staying up.  This usually results in me falling asleep on the couch or at the table still dressed in normal day clothes.

2.  So if you go to byucougars.com which is the official BYU sports page, you will find on the right-hand side of the page a list of videos you can watch.  Beware.  HUGE distraction.  There are so many.  And obviously BYU sports are way more interesting than the vast majority (99.9999%) of my homework.

3.  Christmas music is excellent.  I LOVE it.  The end.

4.  Snow.  I like it a lot too.  I could sit at a window and watch it fall all day long.  And it makes everything (except for cars) look 398 times more beautiful.

5.  Static.  Definitely on my list of things I like the least.  There is so much of it in Utah.  And I thought there was a lot in California.  False.  Utah wins in the having the most static category.

6.  Frozen hair.  It's an experience.  :)  Even frozen hair will not make me wake up early enough to blow dry my hair before I walk to school.  Sleep is too precious.

7.  Poster tape.  So on the first floor of the bookstore, they have the better part of an entire aisle dedicated to every kind of tape you could possibly imagine.  Lately, I've been having a poster dilemma.  My posters will not stay on the wall for prolonged periods of time.  Thus, I decided to buy poster tape.  It's basically just double-sided tape.  I really don't know why it is that special.  However, I do know that it worked much better than anything else I've tried.  Weird.  Too bad the posters fell down again despite this magical tape.

8.  BYU is full of interesting people.  And working at the circulation desk in the library, I get to meet many of them.  For example, one time I was informing a library patron that she had some fines because she had turned her books in after the due date.  This shocked her.  She couldn't believe the library charged late fees.  "Since when do you guys charge late fees?!?!?!" she exclaimed.  "Ummmm...since I've worked here," I responded.  However, I was really wondering the whole time what planet she had been living on where there were late fees at libraries.  As much as such fees are hated, they still exist at every library I've ever been to.  Ha.

9.  Leaving my keys in the door.  I do this all of the time.  It's a bad habit.  And I usually don't notice until I leave the apartment again.

10.  Celebration of Christmas, the BYU choirs Christmas concert, was the first week of December.  There were two performances on Saturday.  I was at home for a little bit in between concert.  All of the sudden, around 6:30 p.m., I realized for the first time that day that I usually work on Saturdays from 4-8 p.m.  Ummm...last time I checked, no one had signed up to cover my shift, and I had totally forgotten to find someone to cover it.  Yet no one had called to see why I hadn't showed up.  Thus, I frantically call the circulation desk.  Luckily, Rebecca had signed up to cover my shift.  I will be eternally grateful.

I'll keep it at ten to save you from complete boredom.  Merry almost Christmas!  :)
