I'm on a roll. Blogging two days in a row. Crazy. And now for today's list:
1. Testing Center late fees. I hate them. Luckily you can avoid them by just taking your test on time. However, this semester I paid one for the first time. Not because I wanted to, but because I didn't realize that the day I planned to take my test was a late day until it was too late to take it any other day. In my opinion, studying for an extra day is never worth $5. In fact what is the point of late days? I appreciate the professors who just have their tests open for a certain number of days and then after that you just can't take the test. No fees. It's great.
2. Laughing at yourself. I tend to do it a lot. In fact probably too much. But sometimes I enjoy my own jokes more than anyone else. :) So why not laugh at yourself? According to reading I did for a class, George Washington said that it was not polite to laugh at yourself. As much as I like George Washington, this is one thing we are going to have to disagree on. Laughing at yourself is great! Try it.
3. Back on the subject of the Testing Center. Some professors have their tests online so you don't even have to go to the Testing Center. One such professor is my Doctrine & Covenants professor Brother Perkins. In fact, one day in class he said something to the effect of, "The Testing Center is Lucifer's abode on campus." Hahahahahahahahhahahaha. Love it. I personally like the Testing Center. At least I don't mind it. The fact that we can choose when to take the majority of our tests is great! I'm sure I won't like it as much when I have to take some super hard test there. But for now, we're still friends.
4. Spanish 326. Spanish Phonetics and Pronunciation. I LOVE this class. You think I'm joking. But I'm not. It is SO interesting. Probably because I'm weird, but that's OK. I like it so much that I actually enjoy taking tests for that class. Yes I'm not normal.
5. Being productive. It's great. So is being on time to class and actually paying attention to what's being taught.
6. So it's been decently warm here lately. Meaning in the forties. However a few weeks ago it was usually in the low thirties or high twenties at least in the mornings. I became so accustomed to this weather that I would usually just wear a sweater or hoodie to walk to school because I was so warm by the time I got to campus. Anyway, one morning in particular I remember walking outside in a very light sweatshirt and thinking that it was a nice day. Not cold at all! However, within a minute or so, my wet hair was frozen. Meaning it was below 32 degrees outside. Utah messes with your brain. Thinking it was a nice warm day at less than 32 degrees. Something is definitely wrong.
7. The other day, I tripped walking up some stairs and my knee hit the edge of one of the steps. It killed. It ripped my pants, scraped my knee through my pants, and made my knee swell up. In fact I was limping for quite awhile after.
8. I am often talking to my mother or father on the phone as I am on my way home from school. I also often ask about my new baby brother whom I like to refer to as Jimmer. While on campus, I have to think twice about saying Jimmer out loud. People could potentially get very confused. :)
9. Grant, my two-year-old brother, is quite the talker these days. He can basically quote all of Up. It's quite entertaining. Lately, he has enjoyed talking with me on the phone. For long periods of time. One of my favorite parts of one of our conversations was when I asked him if Jimmer (my brother) was sleeping. He replied, "No, he is waking." Precious.
10. My cousin Michael goes to UC Santa Barbara and has the coolest job ever. He gets to be on the radio for I think about two hours once a week. The other day I listened online and it was so cool! My cousin's gonna be famous one day! :)
Anyway, ten is far more than enough. Peace. Love. Charity. :)
