i am sick of football being on tv always.
i am sick of call of duty.
i am sick of blake living so far away.
i am just plain sick.

my room is never clean anymore.
my car never has gas in it.
my bank account never has money in it.

even though my life is this bad (what a joke. i am such a whiner.) blake makes it better. 100 percent. being engaged and 12 hours away from each other sucks the big one, let me tell you. our schedules are crazy and he works late nights and i have early morning classes, and its difficult to make time for each other. texting often leads to miscommunication and planning a wedding is a real B. i just miss him a lot and wish we were married. where's the 'joy in the journey'?! it is non existent people. that's how whiney I am. is that so wrong? can't I have a bad day? Can't I blog about my bad days? IS THAT SO WRONG?! someone get this drama queen a bowl of chocolate ice cream. one of the big bowls.

what i got today.

Dear Jessica,

Congratulations on being accepted to Brigham Young University-Idaho.

(oh sure, i am thrilled about this part! It's the next bit that really ruffles my feathers. those college administrators are real sneaky... leaving me hanging until the bad news. CHEEKY DEVILS)

The next step in our review process will be to determine your track assignment. BYU–Idaho students are assigned to a two-semester track for which they can enroll in classes. If you have not done so already, we invite you to provide additional information by completing a questionnaire.



Strange enough, this doesn't take away any of the stress I am feeling. I just want it to be, say, January! And I knew what was happening in my life! uuuuuuugh. I can't tell you how frustrated I am!

better things to do than blog

So I've sort of stopped blogging. It's not a priority anymore (like it was before..?) So I'll just leave you with that and go on with this post, which has absolutely no rhyme or reason.

1. I love Waterton. I'm sure if you read Amy's blog you will find out all about the entirety of the trip. One detail she failed to mention is that we had a special visitor.. BLAKEY POO!! I am so glad he came. We fished, saw bears, and he jumped off cliffs (I think I am afraid of heights? Vimy scared me being up so high. It's a freaking long way down!). Also, Blake's brother Hayden came up too.. one last hoorah before he goes to college and the mish.

the red rock hot tub. ya, NOT.
this is Blake, being SABERTOOTH without even knowing it... so fierce and manly. (I love wolverine.)

so after Blake went home (sad.) there took pace a little Vegas House reunion. and it just so happened to be in the bathroom at Nate's reception. Classy ladies.
I miss those days... but the current days are awesome! it was great to see jane and karl and ash all in the same place at the same time.

then.. i hiked the summit. with some of the best company around. and might i add that i am grateful for the NOT ridiculous pace that was set and the time that was allotted for fishing!!!! I recently have found true love in fishing, thanks to Rich. my fishing rod has now caught at least 6 fish, and I have taken the responsibility of gutting my fish (two now.) AND the last one I even put out of his misery myself.. which was a little much for me.. but us humans gotta eat, right?and ever since then, as an unemployed adult, I have been doing whatever I can to not go flipping crazy! I am just counting down the days (NINETEEN!) until Grandma D, Mom and me roadtrip to Boise to see my lovely blake. I am definitely enjoying our above-ground pool and spent 2 hours on saturday jumping from the trampoline into the pool. also, going on runs with Lucy and Sage are great and I busted out the ol' paint-by-numbers yesterday.
NOTE: today I watched Dances with Wolves. It was so sweet.
and all this hiking, fishing, being in the mountains has made me SO excited to start school in september. Environmental Science. YES. my classes include: plant taxonomy, soil research, physical geology, terrestrial ecology, scientific and technical writing, and... BOOOOO... stats! already having to take stats ONCE in hawaii, I know i am in for a tough semester. But i am so excited to be learning again and actually using this mushy grey intestine-looking thing in my head.
