Confession of pet peeves

So, this past week I've been grumpy. I think it has a lot to do with the annoying things of life occurring at the same time. So, I'm going to list them, just because I can, hoping to recognize that I'm being silly and need to relax. Or maybe just bask (spelling?) in my grumpiness.. Warning, this list might get quite long, so feel free to skip it.

• People spraying excessive amounts of perfume/cologne in public: I have a sensitive nose that gets bloody noses. Be considerate people, one spray at home is enough. 
• Cover your mouth when you cough.
• WASH YOUR FRIGGIN' HANDS AFTER PEEING! Seriously, you would think that a group of 20 year oldish people would have this figured out by now.
• Don't fish for compliments. Nobody wants to argue with you as you try to gain self-confidence. I'll admit it, I've committed this in the past, but I've been good. It's annoying. 
• People ruining my favorite songs- Hold on, who sings that again? Let them sing it. 
• Don't touch me if I don't know you well enough. I have a bubble, and so does everyone else.
• Okay, REALLY annoying one- you know that kid in class that jokes with the teacher or asks a question about something the teacher CLEARLY just spent 10 minutes talking about? Don't waste my time.
• And on the other hand, those girls that totally waste their education.
• When the internet ruins my hulu sessions. Totally dumb, but whatever.
• People who can't figure out how to drive. Seriously.
• When parents leave their children unattended. You are an idiot. 
• BIG ONE- when people can't accept responsibility. 
• Third wheelers. I was on a date last night, and some guy tagged along... awkward.
• When people speak in another language for the sole intention of you not understanding what they said.
• HUGEST ONE EVER- People think you have the will or time of day to simply text all friggin day. Sorry, I don't care who you are, texting is usually boring. 
•  When people read over my shoulder without my permission. Again people, BUBBLES!
• When people talk with their mouth full. 
• When people take their shoes off in public at the wrong time... There is a right and wrong time.
• When people say "Expect the unexpected." It makes me want to punch you in the face and ask you, "Did you expect that???"
• People who don't understand how to be polite. 

I seriously could go on forever. I just needed to whine, which is ridiculous, but honestly, how true is this list?? Forgive me if this was annoying itself. But I gave fair warning....

zzz...

Haha, I'm so tired!

Yesterday: I had my Biostats class, and just chilled and did homework all day long. Pretty chill. My roommates and some other friends played Bohnanza (Super awesome game about planting beans.) We called it quits around midnight, and I had a little homework left to do, so I just went to chill in the kitchen. However, that didn't happen.

What ended up happening was a super long talking session with Elle about amazing things of the world. Yay! It consisted of pizza and cocoa puffs. And at 5 in the morning, we decided to go for a walk. I just love the world of Rexburg at 5 in the morning, as it is so peaceful and quiet, with a slight breeze and the sun rising. Really awesome. Then we came back to finish homework, and both passed out in the living room at 7:30ish. I woke up at 9:30, right before class... It was wonderful. And then I was pretty much in a daze the whole day. So, now I'm off to Pre P.A Society with Elle... go us!

And tomorrow is Friday!

Confession whatever number...

I didn't care to check. But this one is so true.

You can't put a price on a life, but I feel that my fife is EXPENSIVE!

Seriously. Here is a nice little list of what I've had to spend as of late, excluding stuff like going to BWW, eating at school, bobby pins, etc.

Tuition: $2000
Rent: $1100
Textbooks: $200 (not too bad this semester!)
Groceries: Probably $100 or so in the past two weeks, to get basics :(
New jeans, as another pair ripped: $40 :(
Birthdays (Why so many in April and May people??): $50
Misc hygiene  (Laundry detergent, toothbrushes, shampoo)- $100ish

The list continues. It's ridiculous! But I must admit, it is the beginning of the semester, so it will get better. It's just sad to have to write out these checks... :(

But to be positive, BYUI is wonderful in making higher education cheaper. The church pays for 75% of our tuition. That is such a blessing, as I know friends who have to pay 10 times what I have to. So I guess it isn't too bad. It is just expensive when you compare it to life as a high schooler, where expenses consisted of going to the movies on Fridays, getting Dutch Bros, and getting clothes.

However, with more expenses, come more fun. College is SOOOOOOO much better than high school. You meet friends who will be able to make you laugh harder than ever, have Arrested Development workouts with (where we have to do 10 pushups every time someone says "I've made a huge mistake, 20 crunches every time that Buster says "Hey brother!", etc.), and make ridiculous food together (two nights ago it was fried oreos... Surprisingly delicious!).

This life may kill my wallet, but this is life, and it's wonderful!

A not so eventful confession...

Okay, the first week is over, and it has gone really well. I already have the ritual down. It's great! And I really love my roommates, we have Arrested Development marathons and ride those amazing luggage carts that you see at hotels, even though it took a few days to figure out what they were called (there was a big debate between dolleys and trolleys... WRONG!)

I'm in the yellow, if you can't tell... and Elle is right in front of me, and Heather is to my left. So fun!

I also found out that I have classes with several people I met last semester, which makes it soo much more enjoyable. But it's great so far, with plenty of sleep, no procrastination (yet), and plenty of laughing.

Anyway, I went to my new ward today, which was pretty cool. All of the meetings are backwards, which I don't like too much, but oh well. But we had a really awesome lesson on the atonement, and the video that they showed is INCREDIBLE. I really encourage you to watch it.

I guess that's it... I really am enjoying life, and all the blessings that come with it! Au revoir!

Well, okay.

So, this semester is going to be good. At least, it looks like it so far.

I met all of my roommates, and I already love them! I share a room with Alivia, and the rest include Mckenna, Elle, Jackie, and Heather. And most of them are Pre-med!!! YAY!!!  Most of them are from the east coast, minus Mckenna. They are so fun! But pretty chilled out, too. Last night we all went to Buffalo Wildwings together, it was way fun! We got back at midnight because it was so crowded.

Anyway, this is what my Schedule looks like:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 2-3 Biostats

Tuesday, Thursday: 9:45-11:15 American Foundations
               11:30-12:30 Science Foundations
               12:45-1:45 Book of Mormon Part Deux
OH, and there's Online Anatomy.

It's pretty nice. I only have to wake up before ten Tuesdays and Thursdays. Except I naturally have been waking up at 8:30, thanks to good sleep. WOOO!!!

So I have been to my Tuesday classes, and have Biostats later today... We'll see how that goes. I picked all of my teachers on Rate My Professor, so I already knew that they were well liked. The teachers I've gone to all seem really nice. My BOM teacher is named Brother Bear. Like the movie. HAHA! Someone asked if he could be called Kenai.

I also went to devotional, where President and Sister Clark spoke together, which was way awesome. I just love BYU-I.

Sorry if this is boring. But it's my life, and I love it. Yay for college!

UGHHHH

Well, all I can say is UGHHH. Somewhat literally too, I'm sick. I haven't blogged in forever, I've just been SUPER busy. So here is a brief rundown of what has happened as of late:

Finals Week! Not that exciting, the only interesting part was "camping." By camping, I mean my FHE family went to the dunes, laid out a tarp, and nearly froze to death til we realized that it was too cold (it only took us a few hours... We left at 4:30 a.m.). I studied like crazy, took lots of tests, cleaned, packed, had a mental breakdown, but I passed all of my classes! Go Kalie!

"Spring Break"... I call it spring break, even though it really isn't. It's just the 10 day break between semesters. I just hung out with my friends, Jessi, Kyle, and Alex. And SLEPT ALL FRICKIN' DAY. Seriously, slept over 16 hours a day. It was fantastic. But I got sick. UGHHH.

Here are some pictures....

 

This is of us going bowling... And of course I dominated! Not really. I was rockin' it, until Jess started distracting me by barking. And we got this HUGE thing of fries, even though I only ordered a single serving. It was great! 

Okay, don't judge me because I looked awful. Anyway, at my favorite candy shop, there is this machine that tells you what kind of a lover you are. Every single time I go, I get bitter or stale (which is not very romantic). So this is my face of bewilderment as I am in shock. Not really.

Then there was this other picture... It was of me after the dentist, eating at my FAVORITE restaraunt. I was drooling all of the water I was drinking, and Jess took an awesome picture that mysteriously disappeared... Oh well. Too bad.

I also went to  the optometrist, and was diagnosed with astigmatism. Yay for having weird eyes! So, for those of you who don't know what it is (don't worry, I didn't know until Wednesday), it is when a person's eyes are more of an oval shape than the regular spherical shape. This causes the eye muscles to be strained as it  tries to redirect the light to the correct path. Anyway, it causes fatigue and headaches, which get worse the longer you go without treatment. Which leads to... Kalie getting glasses! Except I couldn't find a pair that screamed "Kalie!" Which is quite unfortunate, but life goes on. I get them in about a month. Until then, I will just be a cranky girl.

Now to the somewhat present. Yesterday I had my stuff in 4 apartments within the Ivy apartment complex. Ya. FOUR. It sucked. So I was moving all night until I quit. I just freaked out... A lot. I was quite hangry. (Hangry=  anger caused by hunger).

Which Leads to the NOW! I'm avoiding packing my last suitcase. I have met my new roommates, they seem pretty nice. I think everyone is pretty tired, none of us have talked much. So far I've met Olivia (my room roommate), Mckenna, heather, and Jackie. So one is missing... Oh well. It's a lot easier this semester, I have more friends, and I understand how everything works. So Ya. I'm going to have some cocoa puffs... YUM! Anyway, I love y'all. Whoever reads this...

 

Confession seis

So, I'm really tired, and stressed, but had a great weekend. I watched conference with my FHE fam, and had fun just chillin' out and eating too much :) But I got good amounts of sleep, which is crucial for this week!

Seriously, i have studying for finals, finals, packing, INTENSE cleaning, MOVING, and going home for the break (YAY!!). I just can't wait for this week to be over. Jess is going home with me and I'm so excited! Except the only plans we have consist of my hair appointment, dentist appointment, and optometrist appointment. Which I'm perfectly content with. We'll figure it out.

I guess that's about it, nothing particularly too exciting today, except a bonfire for FHE tonight.

Oh! Last thing, I wanted to share my favorite quote from conference:

"Don't judge me because I sin differently than you do."

BAM!
