what? i do things like write blogs still?
yes. sometimes. so here's a little treat for ya'll...my life update! :) also, some other thoughts about things that annoy me.
okay..where to start? school? mkay. so school started. i'm almost 2 weeks in and already i can tell i'm in over my head. but it's a good thing. i am taking 5 classes (two online) and the other three are CLASSES FROM HELL.
okay, truth is they are all from hell. nobody told me business was really really hard! but i love it :) i feel like i'm actually learning something, instead of playing games and taking the easy way out with elementary ed.
besides the whole buying books and paying tuition thing, i am happy with school! oh, and the weird creepy boys that try talking to me. i've become overly antisocial.
ONE of my 5 books costs $200. ONE BOOK. the other ones are almost as bad. booo. anyone wanna contribute to the "mallory works her butt off and doesnt wanna spend twelve million dollars on books" fun..that's totally fine with me.
work.
welllll i dunno who knows this and who doesnt (if you dont, you're obviously a really bad friend...) anyways..i got a new position at work! i am now the very prestigious financial assistant. GO ME!
what does that mean? it means i sit at a VERY awkward desk and talk on the phone all day and be nice to people and harass the bank until they fund all the deals we send them. it's a pretty intense job, but i love it!
the guy i work for is awesome, and i get paid more...so those are all good things! i work wayyy too much though, so trying to balance school and work is going to be tough but i can do it! because guess what our new family motto is?
"DENISONS CAN DO HARD THINGS! " all the hard things.
that's courtesy of my mother. if you ask me it's a little provocative. but whatever.. i just do what my mother says.
okay what else? oh i moved into a house in orem. it's a giant really super nice house and i love it. i have my own room. and a tv in my room. what does this mean? i lay in my bed alll the time and watch tv. that's another thing i have to be careful about. if i dont watch myself i'll be one of those people that wakes up one morning weighing 700 pounds and all i can do is eat and watch tv.
i dunno though..sometimes that kinda sounds like fun.
okay, too much happiness. it's time to complain.
am i the only one in the entire world that doesnt understand the english language?! seriously, i had an angry panic attack today during work because i think i missed like 12 years of grammar lessons.
i understand the basics..you know, verb, noun, pronoun, adjective, conjunction, interjection, how to write a sentence that makes sense. whatever. but then you get into these difficult, wordy things that i have NO IDEA what you're talking about.
past participle
conditionals
predicate
preposition
infinitive
past perfect continuous
reduced relative clause
etc. etc. etc.
WHAT THE HECK ARE ALL THOSE THINGS.
i really feel stupid sometimes because people will go on and on and on and onnnnn about all the things, and my brain just turns off when i hear any words that have to do with grammar. i cant handle it.
which is weird, because i'm kinda obsessed with writing and editing and such but grammar is just WAY tooo much for me.
and not to be rude or anything, but the last thing i want from this post is for some smartypants (aka you dad) to comment with the definitions of all those things. i'll probably get really angry and write some sort of hate mail to you.
i have more things to complain about...but i should probably get back to work. so expect an angry post about ring back tones and hold music some day :)
