excuse me, sir

so a whole lot of funny things have happened lately, i just want to sit around and laugh so hard sometimes.
anyways, today i was sitting on the bus and the most disgusting smellling person was sitting here all high and mighty. it was a combination of BO and cologne. it was the smell of vomit. i couldnt stop laughing at that poor soul. bless his heart, i almost wanted to give him some wet wipes or something.

then i had to run to class because i was SUPER late and so i ran into class and there was this boy presenting, and i wasnt really paying attention to him because, you know, who really pays attention in those kinds of things? yeah,  not me. but then! i looked up at him and i discovered something that i wish i would have known years ago.
ELF'S EXIST! there is no way they couldnt after looking up at his sweet little pointy ears.

also, i need some serious help, with a few things actually.
1. i am looking for an after school nanny job...for somewhere in utah county. so if anyone knows of anything, please please pleaseeeeee let me know! i will be your best friend forever.
i miss those kinds of jobs so bad. i miss being around kids. i miss their voices and their energy! i'd rather change a diaper then sit in an office all day.
i miss everything about it.
2. i need some help. i am trying to make a budget for myself because i feel like my money just goes places that i dont even know. SO what i'm asking for is suggestions on how you've budgeted..what you've noticed that works and doesnt work .

school is getting better. it's hard. it's lonely. it's a lot of work, but i am working at it every day to be positive and to make the best out of what i have, because in the wise words of my cousin rachel, the grass is greener where you water it!

i got to talk to merrit yesterday morning, she was leaving the airport for ecuador! horray for her! i am so excited for her :)
it was kinda hard talking to her, but absolutely perfect! i miss her so much every single day. but she is going to be a super great missionary. she is doing really well, if anyone wanted to know!
she kinda feels like it's not real life, but she is loving it! she is kinda overwhelmed with the whole situation, but she'll adjust lickity split. (i know i spelled that wrong, but honestly everyone i asked had no idea how to spell lickity, so dont be hatin)

also, i need some hugs. so if anyone wants to. come to orem. give me a hug. and tell me that we're friends. because sometimes i get a little lonely and sad.

anyways. bye.
