The first rant I want go on is about boys! Im going to assume no guys read my blog because they are too busy playing video games or doing the manly things that men do. Or, at least I'm hoping because after reading this I will probably have sealed my fate of being forever alone. Ok where do I begin??? You know what? I am going to just make a list of what I hate about guys, the things they do that makes no sense to me and drives me CRAZY. Im sorry if your a guy and reading this but I did warn you beforehand. Maybe you can help me out with this and answer some of these questions that I have, so I can move on and use my brain for important decisions like should I have a banana with peanut butter or my whole easter candy for breakfast? you know? normal things. So if your a guy proceed reading at your own risk.
1. Texting. Texting a guy is a complete headache. One of my friends has this rule where girls dont text guys unless they text you first. I thought this was a pretty good idea because in the dating world the guys have the upper hand so if he wants to talk to you, he will find a way to get a hold of you. I have lived by that rule like its one of the ten commandments. So then some guys will text a simple "hey whats up?" and I will text them back and tell them whats up and then I dont hear back from them forever. Did you really just want to know what was up? Usually when I text people, I want to hear more than what they have been up to. I dont get it. Its cruel, you get my hopes up (depending who you are) and then I never hear back from you again. Why even text in the first place if your not going to follow up with an actual conversation? Unless you ran out of free texts to send, your phone is about to die then there really isnt an excuse for a sudden end of the conversation. Even if this was the case, why in the heck did you wait till your battery was dead or your very last free text to text me anyways? oh and one word answers are just awesome. I write this beautiful paragraph with just the right amount of laughter and info a text should have and I get back "k" "lol" "oic" If you dont have something equally as funny or cant contribute to the convo more than that then why even text back? I just become embarrassed for the novel I just sent, and wonder if you even really care what I'm talking about. Or the people who have a phone and you need to ask them an important question or someting like right away and then three days later they are like " oh sorry, I didnt have my phone with me." Say wha? I dont get many messages myself but its unsafe to travel without your phone, especially with my luck. I mean props to you for living in a world of technology without your technology but please for just the sake that I might call you. BRING YOUR DANG PHONE AND CHECK IT! im feeling better already...
2. As I was saying before, Guys have the upperhand when it comes to dating and in our church we have plenty of dating opportunites. We are counseled by our church leaders to not just "hang-out" but to go on actual dates. I go on dates, i have a date with my sad sappy chick flick movie and barrel of ice cream and a tissue box every friday-saturday night. Thanks guys! haha im kidding I just want to complain about the difference between a date and just hanging out. Im not sure what the difference is to be honest. I thought if someone of the opposite gender as you are asks you to do something, just the two of you, its a date. A hang out session is when you have nothing better to do and you dont have anything planned and its usually with other people. Those are my ideas of what those two are. If your a guy and your interested in a girl all you have to do is plan a wicked awesome date, call the girl of your dreams, find a time you are both available and then go pick her up when that time comes and go have a blast. If it doesnt turn out the way you thought it would for whatever reason, dont call her again. If you had a great time and your still interested, ask her on a second date. This isnt rocket science! Im not sure what the big deal is when it comes to dating, but whatever the issue is, your probably making it bigger than it is. So all you have to do is attend some activities look for a girl who you can maybe see yourself with, ask her on a date. If she declines she obviously sucks at life and you wouldnt want her anyway, if she accepts, im giving you an air high five right now. ...moving on...
3. There is nothing more awkward then hanging out with a guy who you may think is interested in you, and you sit in silence because he just asked you to hang out but he is relying on you to talk the entire time. I hate that I have to start all the conversations because you wont contribute anything. Im sure there are some topics you like to talk about, say something! You obviously dont know me very well maybe start asking me some questions about myself. How else are you going to get to know the girl your dating if you dont ask. If you know everything already then your either a stalker and thats uber creepy or you have already been friends for awhile and have warmed up to each other so you can talk about uber creepy things haha I dunno. I thought guys loved the "chase" or is that trend dying as well?
I cant go into detail of EVERYTHING that annoys me about guys because I havent dated one for awhile, but when I am, I will let you know all about it when I feel like venting about that.
Another thing that has been bothering me lately is my obsession with food. I know I talk about food on here all the time but Im hoping that posting my eating habits for the people of facebook to see will embarrass me enough to make a change. I dont know if Im going through a late adolescent growth spurt or my inner fat kid just has 0 control. Im thinking its the latter. I am constantly hungry, If Im not eating, I am usually dreaming about it, already on my own way to get it or digesting it (shortest phase). I used to have this rule to not eat after 8pm and I was doing so good until christmas hit! then new years eve and day in the same week. Im japan and that was freaking bombs on hiroshima and nagasaki. I keep telling myself that bikini season is coming and I need to get myself in shape so no one mistakes me for free willy but I have no incentive. What do I award myself with if I run everyday, and eat healthy? It seems contradictory to reward myself with a cheat day of allowing myself to eat anything I want because I ate soo good previously in the week. If your an addict, and you are sober for a week, are you allowed to have a cheat day and you get to use the drug or alcohol of your choice. I should hope not. Buying clothes is useless, if your living in the depths of poverty like me that isnt an option. What is the point of shopping for clothes when you are working to decrease your dress size and its taking forever for the weight to vanish? You cant buy the clothes the same size you are now because you might not be that size later. You cant buy something that will fit your goal size you because there might be a possibility you wont ever reach that and you just spent money you didnt even have on something you wont ever get to wear. I dont know about you but, I dont run a little bit faster or harder because I have a fresh bag of carrots waiting at home for me. no incentive.
Running isnt really the issue, my diet is. Here is a little background knowledge about my eating habits:.
There once was a time where I could eat anything and lost weight. Doesn't make any sense but while everyone was concerned about me being annorexic I was finishing my 9th whole bagel for breakfast-actual story, I have witnesses. Unfortunately my metabolism hasnt got the same memo as my stomach has, so im in deep trouble if I carry on with this diet any further. Dont worry, I havent ate a whole bag of bagels recently but my problem isnt portion size, now anyway, its saying no to the wrong foods. If I am in lethbridge, I always will hit up some junk creator like mcdonalds or marble slab, dairy queen and get something from their menu. ALWAYS. I could leave my house crawling because I am so full and 10/10 times I will buy some dessert in lethbridge. I greet food like I would a long lost bro. Sometimes I get so desperate for junk food that I will try and make it myself.
There was this
*The christmas before last, I cried when my mom only made 2 buckets full of cinnamon buns. My exact words were "what? we only get 4 each?"
*Is anyone else concerned that Im always the first one to dish up my food at all events I attend?
*One time my family was ordering chinese with some relatives and my aunt asked what dinner we should order a dinner for 5 or a dinner for 6? my mom told them a dinner for 6 because I was going to be there.
*The other day my brothers and I went to leth to buy some food for our bonfire, we stopped in at mcdonalds full knowing that we were going to be eating at our bonfire. We ordered a full meal for ourselves, holding our purchases for our bonfire we were going home to create as soon as we got home. Ordered anyway.
*Last night my brothers and I had a bonfire with hot dogs and smores. I roasted myself a marshmellow, had the crackers and chocolate ready, put it together, halfway through the smore I realized my chocolate wasnt in it and went back to the table looking for it. After ten min I found it on the ground and ate it anyway. While I was on hands and knees on the ground searching for this little piece of chocolate, I kept saying "you can run but you cant hide." how pathetic is that?
Unless I have plans to be a sumo wrestler in the near future this is not ok. So if any of you out there that have made it this far reading my blog and havent died from boredom yet, if you have any suggestions of what I could do to improve my control skills, I would be open to hearing them.
My brother is going on a mission next month and Im actually really sad about this. Sure its exciting, he said I could babysit his mac computer while he is gone, so thats a plus, but I cant get over the fact he is leaving for 2 whole years. My brother and I are alot a like and get along really easily and have alot of fun times. I dont know what I am going to do while he is gone but I can tell you it wont be as much fun as it would be if he was here. I think he will make a great missionary and I am happy he is going, I just wish I could fast forward 2 years so he is already back. and my other brother has gone...haha jk. I am excited for the trip taking him down to the MTC. I love road trips listening to music, and hanging out with the fam. I know there is some pretty good shopping places in utah and Im going to need a little retail therapy after dropping off my brother. Also, I get to see my best pal Jon!
Anyway I have a couple stories and pics with my brother matt just so you know how close we are and how much I will miss him when he goes.
Truth is, my mother failed to take pictures of me and mathew playing when we were little so I had to crop the others out of these photos, so people would think we were close friends haha
AWWWWWW wasnt I cute?haha
I dont know why he is wearing a blanket around his head? 
This has nothing to do with matt and I but I just had to post because I couldnt stop laughing. I cannot figure for the life of me why I didnt have friends in that grade, can maybe one of you help me out with this? I think maybe I was too busy being kara's friend because she looks a little geeky here too. haha Some memories I have about hanging out with mathew is when we were children, us girls had our dolls and barbies we liked to play with and almost everytime we played with them, my bros wanted to play too. If we were playing barbies they would pretend they were our husbands (with their GIJoes) and they would pretend to go off to war. If we were playing dolls, they were our husbands then too. We would have play church on the front stairs and they would take turns taking our doll children out for a spanking. I wonder where we learned that from?
We would play judge judy and I would be the judge and Matt and Mike would be my bailiffs haha They would wear their suits and draw beards on their little boy faces.
One time matt and I were watching Dante's peak (a movie about a volcano if you have never heard of it) and this one part scared us so much we went upstairs and played lego together. We were shaking and just couldnt stop talking about how much it grossed us out. Even talking about it now we get the shivers.
When we were younger I would sneak in their rooms to talk about everything and anything at night when we were suppposed to be sleeping. Sometimes our parents would hear us and try to come downstairs and threaten to spank us but I would beat them to my room and pretend I was sleeping, my bros would do the same. It was so much fun and I enjoyed talking to them before bed every night.
We went to disney world one year and the whole time matt and I would pretend to be overly excited idiot tourists. It never got old...to us. 
We hung out this whole trip I swear
Im going to miss going cruisin and listening to country
We sun tan in the backyard every year. Now I will be all alone :(
We grow out our beards together. haha
When Matt was born he was born with an undeveloped lung and almost didnt make it. The story goes as told that when I finally got to see him, he was hooked up to alot of different kinds of tubes and my four year old little self didnt understand his condition. My mother said that I didnt want to hold him and told them I wanted a new brother. Once he got home, I thought he was pretty cool. I actually remember him throwing up on me the first time. Anyway Im glad he survived and his lungs are ok and my parents ignored my requests for a new brother or else I would have missed out on all these awesome times. Matt if your reading this I love ya tons! your one of my bestest friends and I love talking to you. You have impressed me with your maturity and advice you have given me when I have come to talk to you about my problems. I am glad you decided to go on a mission and I know you will change some peoples lives because of this decision.
anyway I have been working on this post all day and I want to go eat something so good day to you all and I hope you enjoyed this post.
oh kaylee. You make me laugh. I didn't make popcorn but i sure did settle in for a good read!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your brother and his call.
And best of luck with the food. Maybe i'll have more tips once this baby comes out and I have to stop putting everythign into my mouth!
