Tim
So I know I complain about my job quite a bit but I have to admit that I actually dont mind it. Sometimes I actually enjoy it. Lately Ive been working at the boys house and every morning Im suppose to wake up seven year old, red headed, Tim a half hour before I get off. Its quite the fight to get him up. He says hes sick, has a tooth ache, and many other excuses. After he gets up hes actually a funny kid. We have a good time as hes getting ready. He likes to just sit around a talk to me after hes done everything he has to do. As Im writing this Im sitting here talking to him. He says the funniest things, but today he made me so happy. He told me that he likes me the best. Cute, right? So right now I am so grateful for my job.

Hey everyone look at my sidebar and please vote. I know this is ridiculous and you cant decide my future for me but Im so confused right now. I have no idea what I should do. I cant even make the little decisions in my life right now. So I just want to know what you think I should do. If you have comments on the poll or other ideas please comment on this post.

Grateful
A few of my sisters (Jana I consider you as my sister) have made lists of things they are grateful for this year. I thought I would do the same thing. They are in no particular order.
1. My family-dad, mom, siblings, in laws, nieces, nephews, and the list goes on. They are amazing and I really dont know what I would do without them.
2. My Savior. Everyday
I am more grateful that I have the gospel in my life.3. My job. It isnt great but I still like it and hey, it brings in some money.
4. School. Ok, I know you are all really surprised that I put this but I am very grateful that I am able to get an education so Ill be able to get a good job in the future.5. Friends. I love my friends.
6. My roommates. I have been blessed with great roommates. We have so much fun together.
7. My health. I have had some health problems in the past year and Im grateful that everything is getting back to normal.
I am so blessed!

I just watch Paper Heart with my roommates. Its about a girl who doesnt believe in love so she decides to make a documentary about it. She goes across the country asking people if they believe in love and what love means to them. In the process she meets someone and they start dating. As the relationship progresses she realizes she needs to figure out if she really does believe in love and if shes capable of it. I loved it. It was interesting to hear everyones different perspectives on love. Watching this movie made me think of a quote from Dan in Real Life. "Love isnt a feeling, its an ability." What do you think? Is love a feeling, do you need to be capable of falling in love, or can anyone fall in love?

Life
“Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin, and they end, with no lasting memories made in between. Most days have no impact on the course of a life. May 23rd was a Wednesday…”
Life is so interesting. It can be so simple at times and it hardly changes from day to day. All it takes is one day. One day can completely change your life. Whether its moving, someone dying, relationships changing, you get a different job and the list goes on and on. Right now my life consists of school, work, and little else. Sometimes I wake up thinking this is going to be a great day and my day may be the same as any other day but for some reason it’s a better day. Other days are harder. I feel like Im dragging myself through the day and I just want it over. Its interesting how different they can be even though Im pretty much doing the same things. My life is kind of boring right now and Im waiting for a change. I want something to happen whether its new, old, exciting, original…I don’t care what it is.
Ok, enough about that. So the last couple of nights Ive worked they have had me watch the boys house, which I am not a fan of. There are about seven people that do the night watch and I am the only girl. Why do I have to watch the boys? Anyways I was suppose to watch them tonight but when I got here one of the older boys was freaking out and trying to hit and attack someone so they sent me over to the girls because they were trying to restrain him. Umm what if I did stay at the boys and the boy didn’t freak out until later in the night. There have been a few night watchers sent to the hospital after they have been attacked since Ive started working here and it kind of worries me. Some of those boys are twice my size. They could easily hurt me. Im scheduled to work at the boys house for the next two weeks but I hope they change it.

A few things I learned today
I need more than one alarm to get me out of bed. I worked last night and I don’t remember turning off my alarm for my afternoon class. Oops!
Oregonians are actually cool, but I still hate driving through their state.
Kaylee wants me to join her lunch club. It now consists of Kaylee and myself.
I can get my dad to do a lot for me.
In a year we blink over 10,000 times.
