Randomness.

I need to vent/give myself a pity party for a moment here. Hope you don't mind.
Do you ever feel like you're surrounded by so many people but yet still feel so alone?
This is the perfect way to describe how I've been feeling lately.
Why?
I have no idea why.
Just how I feel.
Not so great of a feeling eh?
Okay I'm done venting/giving myself a pity party.


Actual conversation yesterday in school between two girls...
"Can I tell you something?"
"Yeah..."
"You're a whiner and it's really annoying. You complain about everything"
"Well I'm sorry that you have to listen to me."
"Actually I would rather you just not talk at all."
......awkward silence.

My jaw honestly dropped when I heard this conversation.
SO rude right?
I couldn't believe it.
I actually had to ask the person sitting next to me if she heard what I heard.
And we both started laughing in disbelief.
Where is the love people?!


Speaking of love...
Check out this miracle.
Everyone is sharing.
No fighting. No hitting. No screaming. No punching.
Did I mention that everyone was sharing?
All 13 of them.
Can I get a moment of silence please....
..........
Man I was so proud!

The Pit and the Peak of a Tuesday.

{the pit} The kids were so naughty today at work. No one listened. They were hitting. Toys were flying across the room. Paint was everywhere. Things were being broken. I pray that Thursday is better. Much better.

{the peak} The movie Tangled came out on DVD today. Love, love, love this show! It's probably safe to say that this is one of my favorite Disney movies. When it first came out in theaters my friend Jackie and I went to see it. Yes, we were the only people above the age of six in the whole theater. Yes, we were the only two people that didn't have to use a booster seat. And yes we were laughing at every part even when the kids weren't. Yes, I am aware that we are five years old. Did we care? Nahh.We loved it.

Staring.

Do you ever have one of those days where you feel like everyone and anyone you walk past just stares at you?
Well, I am having one of those days.
First I thought it was just me.
Till a kid in one of my classes turned all the way around in his seat to look at me.
Makes me wonder what I look like today...
Did I only put on half my face?
Do I have a huge booger in my nose?
Is my hair a hot mess?
Course all this staring doesn't necessarily mean something bad, it could be good staring right?
Hmmm....

Speaking of staring...
I have decided that people watching is one of my new favorite things to do.
You can learn a lot from people by just watching them.
This makes school and other activities a whole lot more fun.
You should try it.
It's even better when you listen in on their conversations.
Except for it's always awkward when they figure out that you've been staring at them for the past five minutes.
Then it's just creepy and awkward.

Quote of the Week.

Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Laugh when you can, apologize when you should and let go of what you can't change.

Ticketless.

I got pulled over this morning.
The flashing lights came out of pitch nowhere.
I was going 44 in a 25 mph construction zone.
Oops. My bad.
Automatic ticket?
You would think.
Nope, just got a warning.
Got out of a 400 dollar ticket.
Thank you mister police officer!
This is now the second time I've been given a warning.
My first time was when I was a junior in high school and was going 11 mph over the speed limit.
No, I didn't cry either of these times.
How do I do it you ask?
I have no bum idea.
Pure luck? I think so!

The Pit and the Peak of a Sunday.

{the pit}
I have been craving one of these.
A big, juicy cheeseburger, well done, no onions or tomato with some salty fries on the side from in-n-out.
And I can't have it. Ugh!
Craving may be an understatement actually.
And I never crave this kinda stuff, cause I don't do certain kinds of meat.
Please bless my mouth is better soon so I can indulge myself.

{the peak}
Family time at grammas.
Don't tell me she is not thee cutest thing you have ever seen.
Check out that outfit too.
I melt.

My gramma also asked me what choch meant.
I refused to tell her.
So she told me that she was going to ask someone young at work tomorrow what it meant.
Oh dear.
So glad I'm not there to wittiness that conversation.

Insperational Nie Nie.

I had forgotten all about this video until I randomly remembered about it and showed my friends last night.
So glad I thought about it again.
Check this video out.
Truly inspirational, truly amazing.



Do you remember when I talked here about my trials and how silly they seemed sometimes compared to others.
Well this video definitely proves just that.
I can't even beging to fathom going through that kind of trial.
She is absolutely amazing for having to go through that.
And I love how she doesn't sugar coat it. She knows that she has had hard time and will have hard times to come.
But she takes it with patience, love and most importantly faith.
She also has a blog that I am obsessd with.
Check it out here.

Lost My Wisdom.

All four wisdom teeth are officially out as of 8:00 this morning.
I was so bum nervous.
I've never had a surgery before.
The worst part was the IV.
The first IV they put in didn't work for some reason, so they had to put in another one.
Actually let me rephrase that... They had to jab and shove in another one.
It hurt real bad.
And I may or may not have started crying.
Then from that point on I don't remember a thing.
I do however remember now how dramatic I was being when I got home.
My fb status went a little something like this:
"Wisdom teeth are out. Now taking visitors from the hours of never and never. Really though. No one needs to see me like this."
Psh I don't even look that bad.
I didn't know what I was saying, that anesthetic is some strong stuff.
My cheeks aren't swollen.
My mouth doesn't really hurt.
I didn't say anything ridic and make a fool of myself while I was on the anesthetic.
I'm not in any pain.
The only med I'm on is Motrin.
I'm not nauseated.
My cheeks aren't bruised.
I feel like I could go back to work today.
Is something wrong with me?
I lucked out.
Or I just have a really good oral surgeon.
Thank you Dr. Christensen!

Matching Shoes?

Jayde came to day care like this today...
Me: Haha Jayde do you know that your shoes aren't matching?
Jayde: Yeah I just couldn't find my other red shoe so I just found this other shoe and put it on and thought it would work.


Who needs matching shoes right?
Made my day.

The Pit and the Peak of Sunday.

{the pit} Apparently church was at 10:00 today instead of the usual 1:00. It was stake conference today and I missed it. Not gonna lie I was bummed. I love seeing people in the stake that I grew up with. Now that I've moved away I don't get to see them as much, if not at all. Plus I love love the talks that are given in stake conference. Extra inspired, extra important. Note to self: listen in church when they give the announcements.

{the peak} It's such a pretty day! Spring is around the corner and I love it. I haven't been in this good of a mood for months. Thank you mister groundhog for seeing your shadow and bringing us Spring.

Gotta Love Em.

"Justin Biebers gay, Justin Biebers gay, Justin Biebers gay, Justin Biebers g...teacher, what does gay mean?"'

She honestly stopped mid-scentance to ask me what gay meant.
It was so funny!
I think I could write a book with all the funny things I've heard kids say over the years.


Apparently I have a boyfriend now.
Two boyfriends actually.

Conner


Braxton
"Miss. McCall, Conner says that he's your boyfriend and he's just not cause I am. I'm your boyfriend."

I've known these two since they were two. And now they're both four.
The other day Conner was sitting on my lap and he planted a kiss right smack dab in the middle of my cheek out of nowhere.
It caught me so off guard.
Promise I felt like a million bucks.
Kids have a funny way of making you feel like that.
I'm constantly being told that they love me a million times a day.
I get told that I'm pretty.
I get the best hugs ever.
They forgive me five seconds after they get into trouble.
They're constantly making me laugh and putting a smile on my face.
All these things happen at the most random times too.
But at the times that I need it most.
I'm blessed to have such a great job.

The Pit and the Peak of a Wednesday.

{the peak} Glee, Chinese food and Leatherby's with my two favorite people tonight. Yes please!

{the pit} Another math test. Which means another not so good grade.

Up.

Remember my little old astronomy teacher I talked about here.
Well his wife died this weekend. 
Promise I was so sad for him.
"I don't stay long at school cause my wife can't remember things without me."
Just melts my heart. 
I couldn't stop thinking about this part of the movie Up...
I may or may not get teary eyed every time I watch this.

Target.

I seriously think I keep this store in business.
No joke.
Target runs are a weekly occasion.


I go in for just one thing and almost always end up coming out with twenty things.
Every time, without fail.
My future home will be filled with things from Target.
Hope the hubs doesn't mind.

I also am a very proud owner of this thing....


A Target REDcard.
Promise I pose just like this lady with my card too.

Hey look!
Zac Efron shops at Target just like me.
What a smart boy.

Peacoats.

I think I have a small obsession.
I realized that I have a lot of coats.
What do you think?
Too many?
I sure don't think so :)
I still want to add a mustard yellow and maybe a brown to my collection. 


I have so many because of how much I have to walk around campus.
Gotta stay warm!
There is nothing I hate more than being cold. 
 And I can't wear the same coat everyday duh.
So this gives me a good excuse to have a lot.

Haircut.

I got my hair done about a week ago.
I spent five hours in that salon.
The lady that cut my hair did it all wrong.
It looked horrible.
So then another lady had to fix it.
What a life saver!
Because of all the cutting she had to do to fix my first haircut my hair is really thin.
I feel pitch bald.
And like I lost ten pounds.
I don't like it.
I want all my hair back! 
It's probably not really even that thin and I'm just being dramatic.
But it's really thin for me.
I learned my lesson.
1. Never go to someone new to get my hair cut.
and 2. I need to be patient and just wait for the next open appointment with the person I know will do a good job.

The Pit and the Peak of a Wednesday.

{the pit} I have had S&M by Rhianna stuck in my head for days now.
Yes, it's true, a song as dirty as this runs through my innocent mind several times a day.
Cause sticks and stones may break my bones, but chains and whips excite me...

{the peak} February is over and March is here! Spring is in March. Thank. The. Heavens. March also means that Spring semester is almost over. I don't think I have ever been so excited for March in my whole entire life.
