Working Hard or Hardly Working

Going to the Food Drive concert I was a little worried. We had three bands coming that no one has ever heard of, it was our first year doing this, and there were a million things that could go wrong. Well, once I got there I realized that only half a million actually went wrong. I spent the first hour being yelled at by the guy in charge of the sound system, but once that hour was over everything ran smoothly. I had fun even though I had to sit with the guest services guy for half the time. My boss bought me an Italian soda. Those who know me know I don't drink soda. At all. Any slight fizz makes me cringe. I drank the whole thing. It was delicious... except for the fizz. Blackberry Italian sodas aren't half bad. After the first half of the concert I went inside to see a couple bands play. It wasn't bad at all. Okay, one band was terrible, but the rest were good! Talking with my coworkers, sitting with my roommates, and playing games made the night a great one! I love the picture we took with my three boys, Cosmo, and me. Today I got to decorate the Student Alumni Christmas tree. All of the Hinckley Center is being decorated in the traditional Christmas decor, but the Student Alumni tree gets to be decked out in BYU decor. What could be better than Christmas and BYU!?! After work I went to get my car checked out before my trip to Arizona. Sitting in the office, I was handed a warm cup. Expecting coffee, I cautiously sniffed it once the guy left. It was French vanilla hot chocolate. Heaven. When I got home for the day, I listened to the speech JK Rowling gave at the Harvard commencement exercises. Her speech was amazing. So, this week I may have had to deal with my curly or liony hair, it may look like the Christmas tree and I got in a fight looking at all of the scratches on my arms, there may have been a scary sock monkey in with the decorations (don't worry I left it in the box), and I may be missing the last home football game to go to Park City tomorrow, but I have amazing friends and family, the Christmas tree looks simply amazing, I got gas for under three dollars, and I am going to Park City tomorrow!

In My Own Little Corner

In my own little corner, in my own little chair I can be whatever I want to be. 

Last night I was up until almost two in the morning. I had to stay up until midnight to sign up for my classes next semester. That wasn't a big deal. I was done ten minutes later with all of the classes that I wanted. Then, I started dreaming of what life will be like after I graduate. I went through my map of classes to make sure I was on track for my CFLE and internship. I looked at internship opportunities as well as where job opportunities were for when I was done. Like I said, I did not go to sleep until almost two in the morning. 

I'm a girl men go mad for. Love's a game I can play with a cool and confident kind of air.

It was a long day. Good thing I love my job. I do not have a ton to do right now, so I was helping the officers with everything they needed. Guys, I got in trouble for flirting with a couple of the officers. My mom always says that I do not know how to flirt. I always insist that I do. Today I proved it. I got in trouble for flirting with two guys.

Then I'm glad to be back in my own little corner. All alone in my own little chair. 

Back at home, I love seeing Dani. She brightens my day. Every time. She truly is a sweet spirit, and I don't mean that in a "bless her heart" kind of way. I love her. 

I'm the bell of the ball in my own little corner. All alone in my own little chair. 

I got some time alone tonight. Those moments give me the opportunity to enjoy the quiet and think about what I really want out of life. I ended up continuously thinking about three songs from the Rogers and Hammerstein's Cinderella. I ended up watching the movie and listening to those three songs over and over again. Maybe they will give you some insight into what I was thinking about.
