Cell Phones

So, I'm slightly upset at US Cellular. Why in the world do we have to sign a contract every time we buy a phone? My husband signed a contract last year and got a new free phone. I went in to get a new phone, and they told me I had to wait until October, because that was when I signed my part of the contract. So, I waited until October, and they were giving away free Razors then. I went in to get one, and they told me I would have to sign a new contract even though my husband had just signed a contract the month before. Now, my husband's phone was stolen, and I have an old phone, but if either of us want to get a new one at a decent price, we have to sign ANOTHER contract!!! AH! I guess I will have to just wait until it's time to renew again.

I feel like a dork...

I'm sitting here watching America's Top Model. I feel like a huge dork, because I really like this show. I'm not really on top of fashion or models or anything like that...but I love this show. My husband has always made fun of me for watching it, but he's sitting here enthralled with this show too. I guess it takes a dork to know a dork. =)

Africa

Yesterday, I was watching Oprah, and she was talking about the school she just opened in South Africa. I know that Oprah has received a lot of criticism about this, but I think it is absolutely amazing. I went to Africa the summer after my freshman year in college. I fell in love with it and have been wanting to go back since I left. I've always said that I want to adopt a lot of kids from Africa. One day, we were talking, and he made me explain why I would want to adopt. During this discussion, I discovered that I want to open up some kind of community development compound (like the one I visited). After seeing Oprah living her dream of reaching women in Africa, I realized that I want to go to Africa. Maybe not live there forever, but I want to go there and make a difference. It's so exciting to see people like Oprah seriously working to change lives. I can't wait until I can do the same thing.

Ready to go...

I am so tired of school right now. I remember in high school having seniorities; however, this feels completely different. I think I've used almost all of my absences for my classes. I've turned in assignments late. I've had absolutely no desire to be in school right now. I guess something needs to change, because I don't want to fail my last semester. Plus, so many people are excited about me graduating. It's just not in my heart anymore. I guess that sounds super corny, but it's true. I wish I could find something that would give me desire for school for a few more months. I"m tired of just hanging in there. I've quit too many other things, so I'm not going to quit here...I just need to start again or something...

Toothless

So, last weekend, I had my wisdom teeth taken out. I was ok with it all and not too nervous, until I went to church. I was talking to some friends at church and told them about me getting my teeth taken out. All of a sudden, so many people were telling me about their horrible wisdom-teeth-removing experiences. I got a bit freaked out. So, it came to the day...it ended up not being as bad as I though; however, I was so tense during the whole thing. I had like 57 shots in my mouth (which made me even more tense). However, I ended up ok. I went home afterwords, watched a movie, refinanced my house, went to Walmart, and then came home and crashed for about two days. But now, all is better. No teeth, but my mouth still hurts a bit when I yawn.
