So. This is the blog where I tell you all the little random things I keep forgetting to in my other blogs. So it's gonna be a little chaotic up in here, just bear with me. :)
1. Jennifer and I ran over a HUGE snake the other night. We screamed. It was funny.
2. Tonight I got to see the AC Wal-Mart..holy cow..there's NOTHING in there. Seriously. It's just a bunch of shelves. The only good thing that's coming out of this remodeling is yellow walls!!. :)
3. The Navy called the other day [yes, the entire Navy] and told me that I have to lose 15-20 lbs before they can continue the "so you wanna join the Navy" conversation with me. Bummer. Prayers are appreciated.
4. It was hot as blazes in our house today. Geez.
5. My friend is getting to drive a Governmetn Issued Hummer! How exciting is that!?!? I think it's pretty cool. Unless he has to pay for gas, of course, then that would be a BUMMER!
6. My sister graduates on Friday. That's scary! I turn 21 in less than 2 months..that's scary too. Man, my parents must feel old. :) Love you, mom. haha.
7. I watched Remember the Titans today..IT HAS RYAN GOSLING IN IT!! [the guy from the notebook] I LOVE HIM!! His character is sooo funny. I don't think he has a name though..haha. I LOVE that movie so much. It's one of my all time favorites!
That's all I can think of right now..my brain is shutting down. Goodnight.

I'm So Obsessed My Heart Is Bound to Beat Right Out My Untrimmed Chest [HAHAHAHAHAHA]
I just need to start this out by saying that there's a HUGE bug flying around me and when it lands it looks like a cockroach...sort of. It's wiggin me out.
I hate it when you tell someone something and they don't listen. They just don't get it. Not like they don't understand..more like they hear what they wanna hear and that's that. It bugs the ever livin daylights out of me and I want to scream at them. When I say something...that's what I mean. You can't change my mind or make me say something else. Just let it go.
So. You're reading the blog of the newest certified guarder of lives. :) Seriously, I was the last to take the last portion of the test..last to get out of the water..so I am the newest. I tell no lies. :)
I hate Brentwood. I don't know how many of you have seen my rant statii on Facebook but I absolutely hate it. I find NO reason on the planet to have houses that large. I just don't [plus their lack of melanin is discomforting]. I think that if I were rich enough to own a house like that [seriously, these houses are like mansions and they're EVERYWHERE] I don't think I would own a house that large. I almost wholeheartedly believe [about 98%, sometimes money changes people so I can't be 100% certain] that I would give most of that money away. Either that or save it for college funds for kids and grandkids etc. Unless I'm building an army or planning on having 25 kids, there's absolutely no need for me to have a house that gigantic. Ya know? It just makes me sick. There are people dying all over the world because they don't have money to buy food or clothes or anything. Yet there are people in our own backward spending only God knows what on utility bills that could feed 3rd world countries. It's just heartbreaking that people are so selfish. Maybe it's because I've grown up with parents that don't give me everything I want. That know how to manage money and very rarely splurge on anything [except icecream..that's a given..but it's not like we own an icecream factory or anything] I think people are ignorant or they just don't want to know what's going on around them. They could sell that huge house they own and adopt a child from Africa...actually they could probably adopt 10 or 12, buy new instruments for several schools, buy hundreds of pairs of Toms shoes and instead of keeping their pair sending them overseas. They could use it to rebuild homes in Haiti, to dig wells in someplace that I don't remember, to help missionaries home and abroad. People are so selfish, like I said before. Just ugh. If I ever become rich [that's not the plan right now] please, hold me to everything I've said in this blog. I want a modest house, I want enough to get by. I know that's stressful, I don't like it now and I'm not married..but I know with the right man I can make it work. And even with not a man at all I can make it work. I don't need lavish things..even though they're pretty and nice they're just things that will one day pass away and be eaten by moths. Pointless things. Isaiah 40:8. All I need is the Lord and His word and I'm set for life. Isn't that so great? I mean seriously. I wish people could see what's really going on and what really matters in this life.
I need a job. This house is making me CRAZY! And you probably think "she really means her mom" and no for real it's not lol. I've spent most of the time I've been back in town at home alone. It's the dogs that are driving me nuts..they follow me everywhere. I don't know how my mom does it everyday. I get tired of watching tv so I read..I get tired of reading I've got nothing to do because I'm still tired of the tv..it's a vicious cycle. I hope to start riding bikes in the next week. And I'm PRAYING that the job I applied for at Steak and Shake comes through. You can pray too, I wouldn't mind. :)
I'm having trouble finding a place where I can sell all my books back at once. I've tried several different websites but they don't want all of them..just like 3...of 15! My mom suggest McKay's..anyone else got any ideas?
Today at lifeguard class, we were sitting outside in the HOT sun just waiting. This lifeguard [who works there] walked past, he was black. And the girl sitting next to me said "Can black people get sunburnt?" and I said 'YESSS!!! They actually just get darker. It happened to my friend last summer, he was fairly light at the beginning then he marched drum corps [I don't think she knew what that was] all summer and he was about as dark as him" and pointed to the guy. And she said "Whoa" haha. I enjoyed that moment because it shot a good memory into my brain! I'll tell you all about it:
So Jenn and I went to hang out with this guy Austin that she was sort of talking to..he marched in a drum corps. We met up with him at a laundromat while they were obviously doing laundry. They had like 4 hours or something. So every single white person there had FUNKY tan/burn lines. No joke they were FUNKY. Anyway, so Brandon was with Austin [even though he didn't really like Austin lol] I had met Brandon once already [he says he doesn't remember the first time..whatever] anyway. So we hung out with them, took them to Wal-Mart etc. Well we get back and we're sitting outside the laundromat just chatting [maybe this is before Wal-Mart I don't really remember the sequence of events lol] and I whispered to Jennifer "do black people get burned?" and she said "i don't know" and I said "well ask him" and she, of course said "no". He noticed we were whispering and asked what we were talking about so I said "Do black people get burned or tan?" at first he acted offended that I called him black he was totally kidding though and he said "Yea! look" and pulled up his shorts leg and sure enough his thigh was a good 4 shades lighter than his calf! lol. That was a fun night.
Well I guess this probably long enough. I've still got a lot on my brain though. Thanks for stickin with it til the end! haha.

I'll Be Your Teacher I'll Show You The Ropes
Again, it's been a while, eh? Like I said before...life happens..and my parents have dial up so it makes life happen even slower than normal. Today was like a roller coaster. Geez. I wish I had been warned when I woke up this morning...I'll tell you all about it.
I read my book today. It was about a woman who is a Navy pilot [that will be me soon enough] and she falls in love with an Air Force pararescue jumper. AND they both love Jesus. Oh it's so beautiful. It's called True Devotion by Dee Henderson. She has other books too. One was about a Navy SEAL. Oh it was beautiful too. I got about 20 pages from the end and had to start getting ready for lifeguard class [which I've recently decided is the bane of my existence but my mother won't let me quit because I'm not a quitter.]
Then...here's where it gets good and slightly confusing so hang on. So I'm about halfway to the country club where this class is being held when I realize they've moved it. Yes, I had forgotten the instructor had said it'd be at the YMCA from now on. So I start calling everyone I know that could possibly tell me where the YMCA is located and none of them can. Then I think of people who are home so they can google it. And my darling friend Ali came to mind. So she got me the address. I went to the country club just in case I had heard wrong. No one there. So I kept on going down the road I'd originally been traveling. I got to a point where I thought "surely it's not past here" so I turned around to ask for directions. I walked into Smoothie King and the kind young lady behind the counter was more than happy to assist me. She started giving directions then stopped and said "wait, do you want the one on Maryland Way or the one on Concord?" I gave her a blank look and thought "well since the address Ali had given me had Concord in it I should choose that one." So I did and she gave me directions and sure enough it was farther than I thought it would be. Well on top of the added distance [mind you, I'm supposed to be there at 5:30 and it's now about 5:45] it was rush hour and people in that place are CRAAAZY!! I'm not even kidding! So I get there probably around 6. I go in and ask the guy at the desk where the lifeguard class is, we'll call him Chuck. So Chuck says look in the 2nd door on the right. So I go down the hall. What the heck!?? There is no 2nd door on the right..so I go down the hallway on the right that's past the 1st door..nothing but lockerrooms. So I come back to the front and tell Randall [that's the other guy's made up name] that I didn't see them and then I ask him if he could give me directions to the other YMCA so he says sure. Then stops and asks if I'd like him to call over there to make sure they're having the class and I say yea that'd be great. So he does. They put him on hold for like 5 minutes. So he hangs up and tells me he doesn't know what to tell me. And I said well can you just tell me how to get there and I'll figure it out? So he gives me directions. I leave. It takes about 20 minutes to get over there. Before I see the building I see a parking lot that says "YMCA parking/shuttle" and I think "UUUUH NO WAY am I waiting for a stickin shuttle!" So I think the building will be close...NOT. I get there and the parking lot is TINY!! TINY TINY TINY! So I go around it probably 5 times before a spot opens up. Great. I'm parked. I go in and say "can you tell me where the lifeguard class is?" and the guy, I'll call him Tad. Tad says "We don't have a lifeguard class here" and I said "excuse me?" and he said "there's not a lifeguard class here" and I said "The other Y told me to come over here because it wasn't there" and Tad said "hmm.." then he hollered at a woman, I'll call her Patty. Patty said "oh honey. They just called and said it is over there. The guy said that they sent a young woman over here because they thought it was here but it's really over there" and through clenched teeth I said "ok, thank you" So I walk out. Give up my parking spot to some stinky person driving a Jaguar [pronounce Yashwa according to Kevin Bacon in Beauty Shop. :)]. It takes me a shorter amount of time to get back because rush hour is now over. I get there and it's about 7...I'm an hour and a half late...great. So I walk up to Chuck and say "where is the lifeguard class now?" and he said "I think they're in the corner of the pool" and I say "thank you". So I see a sign that says entrance to the pool through the locker room. Ok. Find the locker room. Well. Easier said than done. I find the women's locker room [that was traumatizing] and I find doors to other rooms..like the sauna..and something else that I didn't know what it was..but no doors to the pool....great. So I leave that locker room, avoid the men's because I know it'll be more traumatizing, go in the family one. EUREKA! Entrance to the pool. I go through the door and my instructor sees me, smiles big, gives a wave and says "Sorry for the confusion!" he's a nice guy. I like him. He reminds me of one of my high school teachers that I really enjoyed. He's really laid back so I didn't get like a scolding or the cold shoulder or anything.
So I get my swim on. Geez it's hard when you're really tense. And the water in that pool is DISGUSTING. It's foggy and it tastes bad and it's warm. YUCK. I do my brick retrieval, it was hard bc I couldn't see the brick at the bottom because the water was gross. He didn't tell me that I failed so I assume I passed. I thought I was gonna drown in the process but I didn't. Yay.
Class lets out. Hallelujah. Dang. I forgot a towel...great
Randall is at the front desk [Chuck is gone, luckily, I didn't like him he was rude even if he did have more melanin than Randall] and he hollers at me and says "I'm really sorry about earlier" and I said it's alright. And he said "A few minutes after you left your instructor walked in and I was like CRAP!! [except he didn't say crap]" and I said "It's alright" So I walk to Bertha.
On the way I sent a friend a text because it's 5 months from his birthday today. So I told him happy 5 months until your birthday! And some other stuff. I didn't expect a reply at all because he's at army training [no, not basic, don't say that or he'll tell you what's up..trust me I made that mistake lol], I didn't know if he had his phone or if he could check so I was like well ok. He'll get it some day.
Then I called my friend Boogie. She needed to talk and it's been a while since we've talked. It was a good time.
I got home, finished my book. Oh it was BEAUTIFUL. Man oh man. I loved it sooo much. Then I was talking to my friend Ali and I got a text from my friend!! Yay. I was so glad it was short but I hadn't been expecting anything back. :) Yay. That truly made my night.
That's all I've got. It was a hectic afternoon/evening. Bah.
Until something else happens in my life...Goodnight Blog Friends.

Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day?
It's been a while, eh? Well. Life happens.
This has quite possibly been the most physically, emotionally and mentally exhausting week since May 1 of 2006. Yea, that one was REALLY bad. Luckily, no natural disasters occurred in that one..just a heartbreak. Worse really. Anyway..
I had a gajillion finals that I never thought would end.
I got an A on my HUGE project!
I had a smoothie party with some great friends that I just adore!
I did a presentation on Tango music..well I worked the video and audio stuff, rather.
I think I did pretty well on my hardest final.
I got a B- on the singing portion of a final WOOOOHOOO!! [that's the first B I've gotten in that class since the 2nd semester of my freshman year...yea...]
Several of my friends lost everything they own.
Lots of people I don't know and never will know lost everything they own.
You should donate to the flood relief. They need it.
You can go here: nashvillefloodtees.com and buy a REALLY cool shirt. But wait a few days because they've overwhelmed paypal and it's not working properly right now. Be patient. Good things come to those who wait...or so I'm told.
I hate it when people ignore my texts when it's something they don't wanna talk about. Thats irritating. [And yes, that has something to do with the last statement, this isn't a tangent]
I can't wait to go home tomorrow and see my family! I miss them SOOOO bad.
I've become quite the bracelet/anklet making queen lol. :) Liz says I should make them and sell them but I don't think I'm that good yet. It's just fun!
I watched Meet Joe Black the other night...it was interesting...I'm not sure how I feel about it. The ending was GOOOOOD but it was SOOOOO long..oh my word. So long!
I will miss my Murray friends this summer.
I am so sore right now. Andrea has pushed me and pushed me while we're swimming. It's harder than it looks. For real!
Well. I'm tired. I'll try to update in the summer. We'll see how exciting life is..
Love you guys for reading my thoughts and stuff!
Farewell!

I watched Meet Joe Black the other night...it was interesting...I'm not sure how I feel about it. The ending was GOOOOOD but it was SOOOOO long..oh my word. So long!
I will miss my Murray friends this summer.
I am so sore right now. Andrea has pushed me and pushed me while we're swimming. It's harder than it looks. For real!
Well. I'm tired. I'll try to update in the summer. We'll see how exciting life is..
Love you guys for reading my thoughts and stuff!
Farewell!

Life.
Today was a lot more stressful than I anticipated.
My hometown is being washed away and there's nothing I can do to stop it...well there's nothing I can do anyway anywhere I am. But it's still scary. That's my entire world being drenched in water. My family and home are alright for now, they're expecting almost 10 more feet of water. They say the dam could break so they've opened several to keep it from breaking. I've never known anything like this before and it's scaring the crap out of me.
History is being erased every second. Look at this picture of the Grand Ole Opry:
The Opryland Hotel is completely ruined. They had a river running through it with waters from all over the world and fish too in it. Now that's all lost as soon as the waters go down.
People are losing their homes, their lives, everything. It's terrifying. I wish people would get smart about this and just stay in their homes, don't take their boats out and go tubing, 2 people are missing now because they decided that would be fun. There have been 18 deaths so far according to the Leaf Chronicle
I know that God is in control. I know that. And trust me, I know there's no sense in worrying. And it's not really that I'm worried so much as I'm terrified out of my mind as to what else could possibly happen.
I'm supposed to go home on Friday. I really hope I can. I don't know what I'll do if I can't.
So, after I found out all of this, I had the pleasure of taking my oboe final. I think it went well but I've been on the verge of tears all day and that ten minutes of my life couldn't have gone faster.
They just need prayer down there please. I wouldn't mind a few prayers either, I've got 4 more finals that really need my attention.
