Clowns
OK, many people are freaked out by clowns, even as adults. Many psychologists have attempted to identify the root cause of this fear. The most common explanation has to do with some traumatic experience from the individuals childhood.
Wal*mart, as a result of one of it's social endeavours, has been able to uncover the origination of these fears. Make sure all the lights are on in your house before you watch this video. It literally brings me to tears every time I watch it.

Important announcement . . .
I have come to the conclusion that some people in the psychology advising office do not know what they are talking about. Not only did they cause me undue stress, but . . . well yeah it is all because they caused me undue stress. So change of plans, I AM GRADUATING THIS MAY IN PSYCHOLOGY AS PLANNED!!!!! I am very very excited, I am going to wait for some of the snow to go away before I start getting official plans under way. I have have Candice's husband Marcel to take some pictures for my announcements and my mom will order them through Stylart . . . anyway thought I would update ya'll. Until next time. . . keep it real!

Mixed emotions ranging from ok to crumpled mess on the floor
So I just found out today that in order for me to graduate in May, as I have been planning for the last 3 years I must change my major from Psychology to interdisciplinary studies. This means that my degree will be a mix of psychology, sociology and religion. In a way I am relieved that I will be able to graduate this May as planned, but in another way I feel as if I am taking the easy route out. My Mom has been talking to me and she said things that made a lot of sense. Since my only other option to remain in the psych major is staying an additional 3 semesters, this is the smart and best choice for me. However I still feel like a slacker or an idiot, or both. I am sure given time things will change. But since the purpose of a blog is to record what is going on in your life, I can't find myself to leave this out. I hope that all will work it self out, I have been promised that I will excel in my area of study and if my Heavenly Father has promised me that, then this must be the path that I was always meant to take. Until next time . . . keep it real!

Spring has sprung . . .
Well the new year is upon us so with a full breath of air I say Happy 2010 to everyone! I do hope that everyone's new years resolution are a success. So with the beginning of a new year I am reminded of the current status of my life. I am getting ready to graduate from college in just 4 short months. Finally. It seems like my life has taken several detours to get to this moment. I am very excited for graduation and I am ready to take my next steps into the world. I only hope that after graduation is over I can find myself a good job and eventually into a good graduate school.
Another current spot I find myself in is living a life with no "significant other" to share my triumphs (and trials) with. As I attend the single's ward and see friends and previous roommates find love and eternal companions, most of the time I can't help but think "I'm just not enough." I hate feeling this way because I know that it is a lie. Yes it is hard to be alone when I so dearly want someone to be with me, but I realized that I am enough to the right person. It really brings into perspective that quote "to the world you might just be one person, but to one person you might just be the world."
This realization came about after having a conversation with a dear friend of mine concerning her own lack of relationship and she said "you know, I realized a long time ago that I will not be with anyone who does not look at me like I am his everything. Because the man I end up marrying will be my everything." It was like a slap in the face but a much needed wake up call. I can't expect everything to go the way I want it to. That is not how the world works. One day my time will come, I just have to be patient.
School is starting tomorrow and it is my last semester in my undergraduate work, whew. I will be really busy that is for sure. I work two jobs, I have an externship with a forensic phychologist and I am trying to balance 19 credits. Yikes. But I have confidence in myself, I view myself as a good student. I have great friends and a loving and supportive family that I always know I can turn to.
I wanted to leave today by posting my new years resolutions so I can see them, and others who read this can see them and encourage me to get the done (so no pressure, but if I fail it is 50% your fault):
1. Take my medications religiously
2. Post at least two new blogs a month
3. Take time out my schedule to relax and enjoy time with friends
4. Get kick-a** grades this semester
5. Go to church more regularly
Wish me luck, because I am going to need it! Until next time . . . keep it real!

New Roommates . . .
So today I got home from spending a couple days in Idaho and went directly to work. I came home kind of expecting a room that is half empty ( because Sarah, my dearest roommate of 2 long years, is getting married this up coming Tuesday 12/15). I was kind of looking forward to having some peace and quiet for a few days. I came home to see an entire room filled with stuff. I met my new roommate ( Hannah) very briefly. All I know about her thus far is that she is a PR major with a minor in Psych and that she is a Junior. I don't even know her last name ha ha. It seems very strange to me that this is my first night without Sarah. In a way I feel as though a part of me is missing. I am sure that Hannah is great, but it is still really really really really weird for me to think that my best friend is gone. I really did not think that it would be that big of a deal, yeah weird, but honestly I thought that I would not have as many weird feelings that I have. This is only my third roommate in my life and I have no clue how to act. I really lucked out with Katie and then Sarah, I just feel like I am not the kind of person that she expected. That makes me feel weird. I am sure that with time, all will sort it self out. She does seem very nice and she is very fun to be around from my first impression. She went out of her way to invite me over to her boyfriend's house ( he invited me too so he seems nice too) but I would much rather get to know her better before I go and do something like that. It will take me some time to get adjusted but in time I think that all will be ok. This is my last semester and I am determined to have fun and go out in style. I will make sure to keep Hannah progress posted. Until next time . . . keep it real!

The story so far . . .
So it has been many many moons since I have been on here last. What has been going on???
1. The calendar months have changed from April to October (a very important change)
2. I stayed in Logan again over the summer so I could continue working and saving up for the school year - - - senior year baby can I get an amen?
3. My neice Laramye turned one in the middle of August, She is so cute I can't believe how fast time flys
4. September nothing of interest happened except school, school and more school
This brings us up to the present. I have a roommate getting married in 9 short days, I can't believe it! Next up on the list is going to a marcy playground concert in pocatello ( I am so excited for this one) followed by a nice weekend at home getting my halloween costume all put together ( I am going to go as the original 1980's strawberry shortcake)
Other than that I am pluggin along keeping myself busy. I still work at borders on the weekends, I work at the CPD three days a week as a file review clerk and the cognition lab on campus. I enjoy what I do, I just wish I had more free time for me. Gotta keep movin to get to the other side I am afraid. Until next time . . . keep it real!
