One More...

Just one more day until I make the trip down to see Matt. It will probably be a short-feeling weekend, because he's working 20 hours in 2 days so he's going to be sleeping a lot.

Matt got a hamster. Fuzzy lumpkins.

Matt has begun the job search, as after four weeks he still does not have a schedule and is often just "called in" on the nights when he can work. It's certainly a pain.

I'm going skiing this afternoon after my Global Perspective class, in which I just took a test. I think I did pretty bad. I didn't study much, but after looking at the test, I don't think any amount of studying what I had in my notes would have prepared me. There's a lot of stuff in there I don't remember talking about, and it was primarily in multiple choice, and often the multiple choice answers could have varied depending on opinion. There is no such thing as "exact science" to me anymore. If I have to hear any more crap about evolution and a 3,000,000,000 year old world I'm going to explode! Whats worst is that she was talking about something that I've read about in Christian books, so I know that there is evidence against it, so I asked her "Is this fact or theory." She responded, "There is enough evidence toward this that it is pretty much fact. This does happen." Yeah, right. And pigs will fly someday. But to end off my tantrum, this definitely my least favorite class of my college career. I'll be glad when I never have open an environmental science book again or feel guilty that I'm using up too much of the earths resources because my parents built a large house to raise their children in, and that they fulfilled God's command to populate the earth. Gimme a break people.

Oh, and Pepin is Matt's new roommate!

Why One more? One more day, one more argument, one more job, one more straw of hay on the camels back.... And one more person I have to compete with for Matt's attention :-p! jk love yah pep!

Winter Vacation

Since I had this week off of school, and was hardly working, I spend Monday night - Saturday morning with Matt. (It was only supposed to be until Friday afternoon, but there were changes due to snow). He was working some of the time, but I survived ; ). We ended up officially getting the Generation Christ website finished!! Yay! We also did a little bowling, and Matt got a high score of 131! I'd be more excited for him if he didn't beat my previous record of 130... I barely broke 100 this time. Let's see, what else? (I took some pictures, but they're not loaded yet, so I'll save them for another post.) Oh! Pepin came home. That was fun... I went shopping with Amanda, Matt's sister... I watched Hailey... Matt slept... Haha! I have discovered my new "addiction" is the vanilla cream donut at Dunkin' Donuts!! I had like 4 this week.

Um. If I remember anything else, I'll post it with the pictures, but although I had a great time, it looks pretty boring on paper, so to speak!

Ta-ta for now!

Sunday

this was on a pinball machine at jokers

So I spent most of Sunday morning being depressed, and ended up going to Matt's cousins birthday party with his family. Then, we both drove to Portland anyway. So, Matt didn't come with his parents, but we still met halfway and had a great time. First we browsed the Mall and took pictures with one of those photo booths (I'd show you, but I think I left my strip in Matt's car). Then we spent the next half hour driving on and off the highway paying tolls trying to find a movie theater. We got some pretty bad directions from guy from New Hampshire (why listen to a guy who lives in NH when we were 1hr into Maine?) It doesn't help that I'm the worst person with directions and navigation and last night I learned that Matt isn't much better. We saw "Jumper." It was pretty good, and it was a short movie, which worked out well because we still got to eat out and get home by 11:15. We went to Applebee's, because I had a gift card there. We went a little over, but not bad. We got this wierd mac and cheese with roasted chicken, a ceasar salad, mozzerella sticks, mini angus burgers, this wierd bread dip (YUM) and a chocolate mousse shooter thing for desert. Most of those are appetizers, and we split everything, and the bill only came to like $30 including tip, so I think we did pretty well : ). AND I get to see him Tuesday. Yay!

Yeah, Right

Never mind the whole Sunday thing. See the 1st Valentines Day post and you'll see how we might do something either Sunday or next week. We decided on Sunday.

Yeah, Right.

Read the posts "So much for this week" and "The snow is out to get us" and the first half of the post "If life were perfectly planned" and I think you'll understand what happened. Except this time it wasn't the snow.

Symphonix needs to die.

Valentines Day, continued. . .

Okay, so update:

I got my power back. : ) YAY! I love electricity!

I didn't take any really good pictures of the trees, because my battery died in my camera and I had no way to recharge them, and now its dark, plus a lot of the ice has already melted off of the trees (thank God.)



In other news:
Matt being the pain in the butt that he is got flowers and chocolate delivered to my house even though I told him I only wanted him to read "The Dream Giver" as a gift. They're pretty, and I have some pics of the roses to post:







I haven't read the book "The Five Love Languages," but I can tell that Matt's major love language is giving gifts, so I try not to give him a hard time about it, and try to find ways out of him giving me gifts, such as asking him to read a book, (even though it was the perfect excuse to get him to read it anyway.) and Matt: Don't think that flowers and chocolate is going to get you out of reading "The Dream Giver!"
