After cyber-stalking people on Facebook and checking everybody's blogs I mustered up the courage to check my grades. This past semester wasn't my greatest. Oh well. At least I passed physics- I was afraid that I would have to retake it (I got 39% on the final... you'd think I'd be too ashamed to let you all know my score). My senior year at BYU is starting to be affected by the "I-don't-shiv-a git- syndrome" that plagued me senior year at Dalat International School in Malaysia. I do want to get into graduate school so I guess I'll shape up next semester. I'm taking biochemistry... doesn't that sound delightful???? I worked with a biochemist over the summer- he said it's cool stuff and that it's different from organic chemistry. I'm still suspicious because it is chemistry after all.
I went and saw Where the Wild Things Are at the dollar movie.
I really, really wanted to like it, but it was soooo depressing (much like this post?). I also fell asleep through part of it, maybe I missed something important. I couldn't wait for it to end.
On the other hand,
Avatar was AMAZING!
My little sister's boyfriend Brandon has a good review here. He sure knows a lot about movies.
Check it out!!! I went and got a pedicure today.

Ugly toes are unacceptable-they are an abomination. Even in the middle of winter when you can't wear sandals and people don't see them. You might think my toes are pretty ugly-pedicure or not. Don't tell me though because it would offend my sensibilities and injure my vanity. This obsession with feet stems from my parents. My whole family is obsessed with feet. The first thing we look at when people step on the elevator or pass us as the grocery store is their feet- if they've got sandals on. I'm pretty sure I've posted about feet before. You don't have to get expensive pedicures but if you're going to wear sandals the least you could do is cut your nails and clean the dirt out of them.
I was hoping to see some whales while in Hawaii.
I didn't see any, but then again I didn't look very hard. I laid around like a beached whale-it's about as close as I got. I don't even know if killer whales migrate to Hawaii. I bet other whales do. I think whales are my new favorite animal... right up there with elephants.
I'm getting sleepy. Hope my rambling didn't make you sleepy.
what time did you guys get home from the movie? Cause guess what... for those who were asleep, were awaken to the sound of Dustin.
ReplyDeleteThis is a funny post. You sound really tired.
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel when you can't sleep! That's what happens to me every night of my life! I really really really really really really really want to see Where The Wild Things Are...
lol I pretty much adore you, where should I go to get a reasonably priced pedi? And I Violently disliked where the wild things are.
ReplyDeleteWhere the wild things are was so depressing. Nothing but a bunch of whiny monsters complaining!!! Go to Royal Nails on State street in Pleasant Grove- 25$ pedicure. They massage, use hot wax and do nail art. Ask for Didi, Kim, or Kimberly. If you look them up in the phone book to call and make an appointment (which I would suggest) call the Royal Nails 8 number.
ReplyDeleteNext time we'll go see a better movie.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your grades!
Yeah, I'm not too sure if I really want to see Where the Wild Things Are. But yes, Avatar was simply amazing! Oh, and the only time I've seen killer whales was in our peninsula here in Seattle. I guess they migrate over this way? Random. But, it looks like you had a splendid time in Hawaii! I'm thinking about doing grad school there (speaking of which, best of luck this upcoming semester). And last, but not least, I love how the main pic on your blog seems to always be from one of your adventures!
