I find life humorous...

Once again my friends have persuaded me to pick up my pen (in a matter of speaking) and write again. It will be interesting to see how long it takes them to realize that I've written again.

It is not my intention to ramble. I actually try to say things that I think are amusing or interesting, but I grew up watching the movie IQ and I think one of the ideas from it stuck. Whenever Meg Ryan starts talking about ideas with her fiance, she ends up rambling. This is similar to what happens to me. I apologize, but I also don't see this changing anytime in the near future. So if you choose to continue on, my condolences and best of luck.

Things I found amusing recently...

A few years ago my brother had a bird that he named Einstein because it was supposedly a genius. While he thought the bird was smart, the rest of my family didn't care for the bird because it would always squawk really loudly. We came up with a different name for bird. We called him Heiny. As I was walking down the hall at school last week, I saw a sign for a man whose last name was Heiny. I almost laughed out loud right there, but I held it back because I didn't want to scare the people around me who probably wouldn't understand the humor in what I had just seen. That poor man. I wonder how many times he got beat up as a kid.

This next story I'll admit is a little embarrassing, but obviously not too much, because I'm posting on the internet where the whole world can see. Yesterday I took my first test in the testing center at UVU. I had looked on the map to see where the testing center was located, and parked accordingly. After that, I was lost. I began to wander around looking for the building I needed. I found a building and I went in, but there were only three men there. Two of these were extremely attractive. I felt like one of the ditziest girls in the world as I told them that I was extremely lost and asked if they could kindly tell me where the testing center was actually located. They were nice enough to tell me where, and not laugh too hard at me, because I wasn't really close at all. Ah...the joys of starting school on a new campus.

Last, but hopefully not least, because it might be sad....anyway...The last couple weeks have been technology suicide around me. My phone decided that it didn't want to work any more. Almost everything on the phone worked except for the actual sound part for talking on the phone. I could call people, and they could call me. I could answer the phone and I could send texts. People could hear me talking on the phone, but I was in the dark. I couldn't hear anything. It made me sad, because all of you that know me probably know how much I enjoy my green phone. They just don't make them like that anymore.(Honestly they don't. They've been discontinued.) Fortunately, I went camping and turned off my phone to save some battery, and when I turned it on the next day it worked. Yay! Just keep your fingers crossed that it keeps working. Another technological suicide has been my computer. When I came back to school this semester my Dad was able to build me a laptop from some computers that he had. It was very nice of him and I like it a lot! The only problem is that sometimes the only thing that will turn on is the quickplay music player. Now this would still be pretty cool, but there are two problems. 1. I dont' have any music on the computer yet. 2. The sound isn't working on the computer. However, I am now typing this post on the computer, so hopefully things are looking up in the technology department. (Or apartment....that's what I almost typed.)
