Music Monday

On days when I think I have it rough I head over to Nie Nie and realize I am completely fine and my trials are small, and can be handled with remembering to breathe & prayers, and sometimes I just need some good dark chocolate. Nies story is amazing. She has a video on MormonMessages called My New Life featuring the song below called All about your heart by Mindy Gledhill. This is my favorite video to the song because I would love to be this little girl sometimes. Especially when I get stressed out because of things going on... Id love to just twirl and smile (and yeah, have people think I'm cute haha)

"I dont mind your odd behavior, Its the very thing I love. If you were an ice cream flavor, you would be my favorite one. My imagination sees you like a painting by Van Goh. Starry Nights and Bright Sunflowers follow you where you may go. Oh, Ive loved you from the start, In every single way. And more each passing day. You are brighter than the stars, Believe me when I say - Its not about your scars, Its all about your heart"

I'm Back!

Back to School.

It is that time of year, I suppose. Classes began for us this past Monday and I can already tell I am in for a fun, but busy semester. I am taking 16 credits total along with some extracurriculars and I am hoping to at least begin my Senior Paper by December.

I am taking the following classes: Principles of Marketing, Human Resource Management, Business Law, Spanish 3, Reason and the Self (Philosophy), and Body Attack. Yeah, they are finally offering Body Attack for credit. Personally, Im pretty excited that I finally get credit for a class like that.

On top of my classes I am back working in the Career Development Center on campus, Director of Operations for Management Society and have been "recruited" to be the Business Manager for the Paladin - again. We will see. I have to make sure classes and CDC are taken care of first.

For now... I am off. There will be more updates to come, Im sure.

Ooops!

That last post was supposed to go on my summer blog, My Summer in Washington, but ended up here... Oh well.

"When the lights go down in the city..."

We have been without power since Sunday afternoon. Really, it has not been that bad for us. For a girl like me who is pretty freaked out by all the glorified dooms-day talk it has not been fun at all to drive down Wisconsin/Rockville without any street lights at 10p.m. but my car functions, My roof has not been smashed in by a tree, and we still have water (whether its cold or not).

Kita posted a link to some photos that PEPCO posted, My inconveinance is nothing like this.

I have great friends in the ward and great coworkers that have offered advice (Mauri made sure to give me the motherly warnings of "Watch how you feel, If you smell something different it could be CO, Dont become overheated", etc.) places to stay (Thanks BadAsh, Ciera, Johnathan) & laughs (Kita, M, Mags & Others)

and just for kicks, I needed to include this....

Muffins

Tomorrow, Finance is starting an hour early!! Harsh but we have a test and its pretty necessary. Now the first time we met early a few weeks back I suggested doing breakfast fridays... it hasnt happened due to some recent happenings but tomorrow (er... tonight) im making blueberry muffins for class tomorrow! I hope this isnt a bad idea. Making them tonight for tomorrow mornings class... here is what i hope they will look like :-)

This photograph is from THIS BLOG and Jessie, author of THIS POST, seems to love these muffins. Now, bear in mind im a poor college student so I do things on the cheap a.k.a. my muffin mix cost 76cents a pack, all i have to do is add water and the "blueberries" look like little pellets... BUT Im hoping the crumb topping will take them to another level and make "just ad water" muffins a whole lot more yummy!
