Serenity Now!!

I HATE my internet connection. It is sooooooo sloooooooow! I have to watch a two-part episode of Dateline for my accounting class and then write a paper on it. It's only like an hour and a half long, but my internet is so slow that I'm not even through the first part, and it's been two hours. And I also have two tests to study for. :( I think I'll be okay though. I am so tired. I was at work forever on Saturday and my legs were killing me from running around the store, so I just crashed on my couch. I haven't gotten any homework done, although I did sort of study for one of my tests cuz I typed up some notes for one of my classes and e-mailed them to my friend who had missed a couple days because she has been way sick. So I didn't totally waste my entire night.

I have got to get some sleep though. I keep nodding off in classes! It's way bad because one of my professors is my old bishop! Yikes! I don't mean to fall asleep. It just happens. I need like an IV of Full Throttle to get me through the day. Things should start to get better this week though. I got a promotion at Allyse's! I don't have to reception anymore, so I can pretty much pick my own hours. This will also be my last week at my other job in Mapleton. It'll be so nice not having to work two jobs anymore. Especially since I no longer have a car. Makes it hard to commute when I have to borrow my mother's car. But what hurts the most is filling that baby with gas. It's like a sucker punch to the stomach.

I have so much to do! I can't wait for tomorrow to be over. I'm pretty sure I'm only gonna get 3-4 hours of sleep tonight. The first three days of last week I got a grand total of 10 hours of sleep. I'm hoping to not repeat that pattern.

Well, I better get to work. But first! my iPod picks for this week. These are all about a certain someone whom i love/hate. I had to go a little country on this one:

"What Hurts the Most" - Rascal Flatts
"Teardrops on My Guitar" - Taylor Swift
"We are Broken" - Paramore
"Umbrella" - Rihanna
"My Happy Ending" - Avril Lavigne
"I Don't Love You" - My Chemical Romance
"It's a Heartache" - Bonnie Tyler
"Over You" - Daughtry
"Don't Know What You Got Til It's Gone" - Cinderella
"Almost Lover" - A Fine Frenzy
"Hurt" - Johnny Cash
"Smile Like You Mean It" - The Killers
"I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" - My Chemical Romance

My Anarchist Valentine

Valentine’s Day is here again
And like all the ones before
There is no one to greet me
With a dozen roses at my door

I have friends who say they love me
And those who say they care
But the one I truly, deeply need
Isn’t waiting there

The one thing I need most right now
To forget the pain I feel inside
Is to be held in his arms tonight
And have him by my side

I ache for him, I pray for him
I hold him in my heart
The problem’s not that he won’t stop
It’s that he won’t even start

There is no sweet release for me
So I beg of those above
To answer me this question brief
“When is it my turn to be loved?”

I fell for you and you left me
Cold and all alone
What will it take to crumble
Your heart that’s made of stone?

I would have given you everything
My life, my heart, my soul
To have this just one thing from you:
To be called your own

I have to leave you behind now
But maybe one day you’ll see
I will always be the one for you
Even if you won’t be for me

And so goodbye my valentine
You’ve let me slip away
Once again we find ourselves
Alone on a Valentine’s Day.

I belong in Seattle!!

Tomorrow night one of my favorite singers is going to be rockin out in Seattle, and I won't be there to see him! James Blunt is going to be performing at the Moore Theater and oh how I wish I could go! He has no tour date for Utah; the closest venue is in Las Vegas this Friday. It's official: I need to live in Seattle. They have the best concerts and the gloomiest weather. It's totally my scene. Even though I probably won't ever see James live, I can still watch his videos!
