Update

Yeah yeah yeah.

So I think this has been the longest I've gone without a blog post. I need to repent. It is unacceptable.

But a lot has been going on. And when I say a lot, I mean a lot.

I was living at home, loving what was going on and happy about my job working for the U.S. Census Bureau. It was the best of times.

And then it became not the best of times.

Sad news #1: I heard back from France. I did not get accepted into the teaching assistantship program. This was especially sad because I really thought I would get in. Which is weird for me because I always assume I won't get accepted into things. So I thought my random confidence in the future was a good sign. Not true.

Sad news #2: My census job that was supposed to last ten weeks *SURPRISE* only lasted three and a half. So that was awesome. I was sad that it ended because I enjoyed the work I was doing. This brings me back to square one in the job department.

A few weeks prior to this my friend Rachel had mentioned working with her for the same place I worked last summer. So after both of the sad news alerts listed above, I decided: Why not?

This means a few different things:

This means I moved back to Provo. Yes, I swallowed my pride and returned from whence I came.

This means I need another job in Provo. Any leads would be welcome in my life.

This means I miss Denver already.

It also means that I have a lot to figure out. I don't know what I'll be doing at the end of the summer.

But I guess thats how things go in my life. Yeah.

I'll be back to funny blogs in no time. No worries.

Another confession

(this isn't about the same subject matter as before) A lot of the time when I meet people I feel like I know them from somewhere. A good percentage of the time I realize the only way I know them is that they resemble one of the characters on the classic board game Guess Who? Does this happen to anyone else?!?!

Recent Obsession Flair-ups

You know how there are some things that you love so much and you experience these things a ton but then after awhile they just seem to fade out? But then some time passes and you almost rediscover these things with new eyes and obsess over them again almost worse than the first time? This has recently happened to me with a few things. They include: Elton John Tater Tots Seinfeld Showering Grape Juice Thats it. PS: (Did you know?!) Thanks to Dare-bear-stare for helping me learn that my own Denver International Airport is the largest airport in the U.S. at 53 square miles! Props to Denver yet again!

Take Home Chef Wannabe

So once upon a time my friend Jeff and I made up our own little tradition. We called it "Friday Picture" and each Friday we would walk around campus and take a picture with the most awkward/awesome/unique looking individual we could find. It was something I looked forward to every week, and we would constantly surprise ourselves with the kind of people we'd see walking around BYU. A lot of weridos there. One day we decided to meander through the library to see if there was anyone extra special for our Friday Picture. Boyyy, did we find that special person! World, meet Take Home Chef Lookalike. I saw him and I couldn't believe the similarities. The striking features. The blond, pointy hair. We even found some silverware to make the photo more true to life. ( The real Curtis Stone ) Try to tell me they don't look alike. Just try. I think the best part of the story is that Jeff's girlfriend at the time (now wife) had dated Take Home Chef-a-like. And we di...
