| So not a whole lot is going on....
Thanksgiving was great! I really enjoyed going down/over to Alabama and visiting with the "other Boydstuns" =D
Now I am really excited about Christmas! And not just because of the presents, but because for the first time in like... 13 years, my family is really truly celebrating Christmas! Christmas tree and all!! We put the tree up the Tues. or Wedn. after Thanksgiving and ever since I am still kinda shocked/amazed to see one in our house again. It's really pretty though! We got out all our old ornaments, which was kinda sad because most of them were somewhat damaged from being in the attic and then the garage... Its been so fun decorating, it just really helps to get into the 'spirit' of the holiday... and then our Church doing a bunch of stuff, like we're going to see the movie the "Nativity" Saturday night (though we haven't found out what time yet... hmm... that could be a 'bad' sign), and then Sunday we are having a Christmas dinner (this early before because the pastor will be gone next week and then the next Sunday is Christmas eve)...
Other than that not much! I have one more day of class/tests next Tues. then my first semester at OCCC is over! I've enjoyed it here at the O-trip, but some people have been kinda making me feel like maybe I should go back to OU... I guess just b/c of the 'prestige' that comes with graduating from there. I don't know though, while I am not completely against the idea I am not sure I am altogether for it either.
Oh, and also... for anyone who does not know yet, I now have a Myspace!

What can I say, Paige talked me into it... although I'm glad she did because as it turns out, there are a bunch of people from my highschool on there! Some I haven't seen about since I graduated... so that was an up to it =)

| I am in the mood to rant or at the very least complain... I barely got any sleep last night due to a combination of an earache and toothache (it was so bad I went ahead and got up almost an hour before I needed to... this is a BIG thing with me)
so my first rant.... Politics. I will reiterate that I do not like politics. It brings out the worst in people.... for example... John Kerry... in his desperation to jump on the join in on the ever popular sport of ragin on President Bush, he succeeded in insulting the entire US military. I don't think that highly of Kerry in the first place but this I thought is a great example of my belief of politics bringing out the worst... Also, I recently listened to some people talking about political stuff going on and they brought up some good points that I want to discuss. They were saying that all the people so against the war and President Bush don't realize that if the US pulled out all the troops from over in Iraq that the terrorist would just come over here and attack US ground. I thought that was a good point, if the terrorist came over here they would be attacking everyone, including civilians. At least with the soldiers being over in Iraq, they are armed, prepared and trained for that exact thing! Whereas we innocent civilians are not. Also, I believe that the people in the Army/military knew what they were getting into when they signed up to join, so why are people so upset and acting like they are being forced to go over there? Maybe I am more ignorant than I thought but these seem like good things to consider when choosing a side in the whole, good war/bad war, debate...
Ok, enough about Politics... new rant! Insurance policies! I am currently on my parents insurance policy. I am still living with them and considered a dependant; However, as soon as I turn 22 I am getting kicked off of their policy... ahhhh! Because of this I am having to try and get any kind of possibly medical stuff out of the way... what do I mean by that.... I have a LONG list of appointments to various doctors offices I need to set up here soon. You may say but you have another year to get that done. Well, one of the appointments is to an allergy clinic because I think my allergy problems may be causing my chronic headache problem, and in order to see if I am correct I need to get that started. I don't want to really get into all my health problems/worries but that is a complaint. Okay, I am sure if I really thought about this I could come up with more, but I think I've written enough.... Sorry, came up with another rant/complaint! Electronics! I bought a sansa e270 about a month ago with birthday money. Love it, it looks similar to an iPod nano but it has the Playsforsure thing on it. So last night I go to turn it on to let Beth hear this song I got from my Dad and it comes on and flashes this screen at me that says "Refresh data failed".... ??? ok ???? It like completely wiped all the songs off of itself or something, however the one video I had on there is still there... weird, huh? What's weirder/ more annoying, when I went to connect it to my computer to see if that would help it refresh or so I could just re-sync all my songs, it didn't even recognize the fact that it was now connected!!!! it would start charging it (which is one of the few almost flaws of the unit, it has to be charged through a USB port) but would not show up as being able to sync or do anything... so NOW I have to make a trip over to Best Buy to see if they can fix/replace it! And I have been trying like crazy to avoid places like Best Buy because I always end up spending money! Ugh... I was doing soooo good too, but there is a CD I want to get and I just know I'll end up going ahead and buying it.... maybe not, maybe I'll get Dinah to try and keep me from spending any money...
Okay, NOW I think I am done... maybe... possibly | | |
| Okay, I am really creeped out right now....
So apparently I have set up an account on Hi5 with a sparse profile of name, age, gender, and I think a location (?) and completely forgotten about it. Well today I got an email saying that I had a message from someone on Hi5, so I get on to check it out. So this is what the message said....
What's up... I checked out your profile and you seem pretty cool. If you want to see more pics of me and my profile on another site check out my homepage at:
My first thought was, ummm what profile?? The next thing I noticed was that it was from a girl... EEK! Hence the now being creeped out! Other news, I had an embarrassing moment last Wedn.! So, since work is now out in the boondocks hardly any customers come out there so it's kinda like why worry what I look like for work now?! So Wedn. I woke up and just really didn't feel like changing, so I went to work in a pair of red plaid men's pajama pants and my OU sooners t-shirt (so it did at least kind of match). I get to work and the boss is leaving so I get to take of things by myself, cool... After about an hour I get a phone call from a new person asking for directions out there, I give them to him and briefly think about running home to change and then decide that, Nah its probably an older man so who cares. One part of the conversation that was funny was I told him we were out in the country and before he said goodbye he goes.. " so I'm not going to get out there and people start shooting at me right?" uhhh... nooo. I think he was teasing about the being in the country =) So about an hour later he calls again and he is lost, missed Okay rd, I get to figure out the best way to get him there from tecumseh now... which is kinda ironic in and of itself, you know, ME giving directions!! =) So about another 30 min. and I hear the door open and a guy yell "hello?" walk around the corner and.... There is one of the cutest guys I have seen in a long time standing in the door way....and I guess he's around 25...? If I hadn't had to smile and try and help him find what he came for I probably would have fled the room and crawled under a rock! Of all the days for a cute guy to come out there it WOULD BE THE ONE DAY I DECIDE TO EXTREMELY CASUAL!!!!!!!! UGH! Well, I would write more but my next class starts in 10 minutes and we have like two quizzes so I need to do a little quick reviewing! =) | | |
| The picture is me and my Grandma Stanberry on our birthday. Me turning 21 and she turned 80! So I guess they were milestone birthdays for both of us =) I would write more but I need to crawl into bed.... big test tomorrow.... ugh. | | |
| SO, I may be going down to Katy over the weekend! My mom is the only one who is definitely going, the rest of us kids are all pretty much question marks until later tomorrow... or I guess today? But she is going down for my Grandmothers 80th Birthday! Which in and of itself is kind of amazing with how many problems she has had, health wise. But I am so glad she is still here and I may get to actually see her on her birthday for once! YAY! So as long as Uncle Barry doesn't say that he can't live without me over the weekend, We will be leaving Friday morning and coming back Sunday night (if Beth goes) or Monday night (if Beth doesn't go). It'll kinda put a kink in the whole homework and school thing, but I think I could deal with it.
Other than that the only other thing is that I have a test tomorrow that I have not studied for and I am on here and the creepy facebook instead! hehe =) Calm down, it's the intro to Apps.... basically a class that could also be titled "Using Microsoft XP for Dummies". So while I do think there is some I should probably go over, I am really not that worried about it...... all though now that I think about it there is software I need to get loaded on my computer before tomorrow..... and I am running outa time! So gotta go....
oh, I don't know about ya'll but that backgroung is kind of bugging me so when I have more time I will switch it! | | |
