I feel like a pathetic teenage boy who would fall in love with a rock.

College is almost here. AHHHH!!! Which means I need to find a roommate. AHHHHH!!!! And, since the school only uses its email system, I missed the email a few weeks ago saying we pick our roommates on this weird Facebook app. So, being two weeks late to the show, I'm on there, thinking that everyone who shows up doesn't have a roommate. I thought about it for an hour, and narrowed my decision down to two people. Then, I sent the fateful roommate request. Guess what? Both of those people already had roommates.

That's ok, I told myself. I looked at the other people and sent them all emails, pouring out my soul, ok not really, but they were all really long emails about why I thought we would be great roommates and what we had in common. Guess what? Since I wasn't already friends with them on the Facebook, none of them got the emails. So now those are all just floating around out there, for them to randomly find someday years later, and to think I'm a total creeper. Haha. 

So then, I started adding them as Facebook friends and staring at the computer, waiting for them to accept me. The second they did, I wrote on their wall, Hey, I was just wondering if you already have a roommate?  This is where I'm starting to feel like a pathetic teenage boy who would fall in love with a rock. Because let's face it, they're out there and that's what they do. The second you add them as a friend they email you telling you you're beautiful and they'd like to get to know you and bla bla bla. And you know they don't mean it because they would fall in love with a rock. I've had quite a few of those happen to me. As soon as they do I hit the DELETE button. So it sucks that this is what it's come too.

And the fact of the matter is, I don't know how picky I can be. Because I would really love a roommate who doesn't drink or do drugs, have people over ALL the time, and doesn't expect me to be their shadow. But right now, all the people who are left drink but promise they won't do it in the room, and want a roommate who's into all kinds of sports and such. Me = not sporty girl. So, do I wait it out for a roommate who doesn't drink, which I don't know will happen? Or do I pick someone who does and wishes I was an olympian?

I found a really pretty rock outside. I think I'm falling in love.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
