Boys and Snowcones. :D

Snow cones. Who ever knew that I could be so happy getting one? I for dang sure didn't. I mean... I always have liked them... who doesn't? Isn't that against an American law? HA! Anyway, after experiencing a rather stressful day filled with dropping my phone in water and doing a lot of laundry, and ironing a shirt for freakin ever! My brother texted me and asked me if I wanted to go get a snow cone with him and his friends... how could I resist?

After getting in the car with my brother's friends, we drove over to my parents house to get money then over to the snow shack (or... whatever these Cedar people call them... it's different up here) my brother's friends are so cool. They make me smile. They make me laugh. They are just... awesome (for lack of a better word) Cedar guys are simply the shiz. Most of them are just all around good guys. I'm excited for college now. I am also looking forward to getting to know my brother's friends more.. is that really weird?

Vector Marketing called me today. I have an interview scheduled with them tommorrow afternoon. WISH ME LUCK!! I really hope I get this job... my first job interview... wow... i'm so... AHHH! :D :D :D I would like to say thank you to boys, snowcones, and Cedar. Life is going great.

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it!

So last night I went to a dance. You know. One of those dances where the flashing lights and lasers always penetrating your eyes makes you want to crawl on the floor and have a seizure. Yeah. THAT kind. It was pretty cool. The best part about these horribly lit dances is that you can look like an idiot and do what ever you want and no one can see you to make fun of you(sprinkler it up baby!)! That's not why they dim the lights down... but HEY that's how I used them.

I had way to much on my mind last night. You know that feeling you get when you leave some place (or never talk to someone again) and you still have some loose strings to tie? I feel like that. It's disheartening. Very disheartening. For the first time in a long time I was quiet and socially awkward... I need to write in my journal more. BAHAH!

I bowled a 62 last night before the dance.... YEP. I am that good. Many of you would be pleased to hear that I used my nickname "mama" as my name while I was bowling... to bad it made me LOSE! haha just kidding. My lack of good bowling skills made me lose. Fortunately, this bowling alley is close to home and costs less than a movie so in no time... I will be a pro! Step aside sucker (sucker should be said like a white girl trying to hard to sound like a black boy [yes... I DID just say black boy]{HA HA HA HA})!!

The search is on for a job... I was kinda an idiot thinking I could get a job over memorial day weekend... I am special. I called this one place to schedule an interview and, of course, they were closed. How is a broke pre-college student supposed to support herself and pay for gas without a job! AH! The stresses of money are hitting me already! SHOOT! Look at me all growing up...

First day away from home...

Well, today is my first official day living in Cedar. Exciting, I know! But it is also extremely frightening. It's kinda weird being away from home. For the first time in my life I am sitting at the computer all day searching for jobs. It's crazy... I am now officially going out in the world to make something of myself. I like it. It's about freaking time!

I was up until about 2:30 this morning putting a desk together. It's pretty legit. I bought it at Wal-Mart yesterday for about $40. I love it. There is something about putting your own desk together bought with your own money that gives you a sense of pride. I like feeling like an adult, but to tell you the truth it makes me feel VERY uncomfortable. I have gone from hanging out with freshman (don't get me wrong guys I love you with every fiber of my being) to entering the adult world in a matter of days. Talk about reality slapping you in the face! It was like... PAOW! Sorry Alexis, can't let you be a kid anymore. Time to grow up... I can't decide yet if I like it.

MY ROOM IS ALMOST DONE! Let me tell you! I got in here and got STUFF DONE! It's pretty much legit! In my 27 or so hours that I have been in Cedar, I have successfully put a desk together, organized a closet, hung up a cork board and white board, organized a bathroom, gone to a graduation, saw Prince of Persia (which was bomb by the way), printed out some pictures, started a blog, and applied for a job. I know... I am pretty much ridiculously cool AND a babe! (I love you Megan!)

In closing I miss St. George already. I miss the lack of wind, the sun, the heat, the people, my freshman, my best friends, my life, my theatre, but most importantly my family. Life will be different for me up here... but I will take it by the horns and... attack? (I don't know how that analogy is supposed to end.. hahaha) Wish me luck!!
