Fire drills, The Bachelor, and Zombies all in two hours

The best part of my Monday, along with the worst part of my Monday was held between 8:00-10:00pm. For all you "in the know" women out there, I'm sure you know exactly what I'm talking about.  That's right, THE BACHELOR!!  After skipping my classes for the morning and catching an early dinner at Gwinn Commons, I was ready to jazz up my day and see some cat fights, group dates, and SKINNY DIPPING?  Ohh yesss, the viewers saw last Monday that there would be a mystery women that gets to skinny dip with Ben.  Of course, I knew it was the devil herself, Courtney.  Personally, she needs to lay off the botox and stop treating this show like a competition.  You are already a "model" and you do not need any more attention and publicity!
But, before I got to give my full attention to this drama filled episode, Ashton Hall had to schedule the random fire drill at 8:10. 

I grudgingly trudged out of Ashton, along with my fellow Bachelor posse, praying we wouldn't miss any juicy details.  Thankfully, I had an inside source texting one of my friends all the dirty detes of what was happening--or not happening(aka skinny dipping) and we didn't miss anything too significant.
FINALLY, we were back to our old habits of scarfing down sour patch kids, Hershey kisses, and popcorn enjoying the nightly activity.  Sure enough, Courtney seduces Ben into skinny dipping!
 I was disgusted, not because they were running into the beautiful Puerto Rican waters nude and gorgeous, but because he will be proposing to a woman in two months and there is a big possibility it will not be Courtney.  Try explaining this dirty deed at the shows reunion to your new fiance Ben!  Not to mention, Courtney just looks like a skank and verifies the world's conception of models.
Before we could finish watching the the final one-on-one date and rose ceremony, Ashton Hall just had to schedule a meeting for the SPU Humans vs. Zombies game happening at midnight on Wednesday.
The cluster of Bachelor fans sprinted and screamed our way down to the lounge to sign up for the campus event.  It was a haze of registering, autographing our lives away, and lying about attending the mandatory meeting as we got our ID card and bandannas.  Alas! We made it back in time to see an awkward end to Elyse's date and time on the Bachelor.  I came to the conclusion that The Bachelor is not as intense when there are many interruptions happening throughout the show and multiple guys are making stupid remarks about how dumb and emotion the girls are.  Although, I do completely agree with them, it is hard not to watch each girl and figure out who will make it on to the next week. Maybe next week's episode will be a little more intriguing IF Ashton decides not to be lame and schedule random events.
Moral to the story, don't be a skanky, skinny dipping model, don't schedule fire drills and zombie Apocalypse games on Monday nights, and finally keep reading my blog!

Picture Post Time!

As I was studying for my first Gen. Psych test last night, I somehow stumbled upon Facebook (SHOCKER) and saw this stress-relieving pic.  Let's just say, I was in the lounge with other fellow study-goers that were rigorously invested in their homework, when all of a sudden a BURST of laughter erupts from my inner belly.  Sorry to those who were suddenly interrupted!  To my defense, I am suffering from post-snowpocalypse syndrome.  This is the awful disease that occurs after having nine days off from school due to:
1. No snow..then
2. Reports saying there would be snow...then
2. Tons of snow...then
3. Slush...and finally
4. Being forced back into a routine of attending classes and finishing piles of homework.

Why, might you ask, would school be cancelled when there was not any snow and only reports of snow? Good question, I myself was also curious.  The answer; Seattle owns five snow plows, miniature streets, hefty buses, and DEADLY steep hills.
Whether you think Seattle is pathetic or not, I am forever grateful that SPU cares so deeply about the safety of the students and were willing to give us this early Spring Break.  Although, why wouldn't they want to give us this time off, we already paid for the faculty and staff; so really, they made a large profit on behalf of God's beautiful creation.  That's right, my private Christian college is working God's system.
Welp, I have a test tomorrow..er..today, and I have yet to study.  Time to say goodbye to blogging for tonight.
Farewell for now

Not exactly a writer...or a blogger for that matter

Hello and welcome!
I'm not exactly sure who I am saying these greetings to but do know they are sincere.  This blogs main purpose is for me to remember all the thoughts that are on my mind (Or to help me waste more time while I'm at work, which is my strategy for this evening)  These thoughts include: school, finances, my faith journey, possibly about my addiction to Pinterest, and my dreams of becoming successful and independent--just to list a few.  I think constantly and analyze pretty much everything that is happening around me.  I am pretty lazy though, hence the reason why I am typing this rather than writing by hand.
Okay, enough about why I am embarking on this blogging phenomenon that everyone is partaking in.  I'll explain why I chose the title of my blog.  I'm pretty impressed with my rhyming skills and the tone of it (AP English right there!)  My group of friends always say I am such a ditz, which naturally, in my opinion it isn't true.  I like to get straight to the chase so when stories are being told in much depth or jokes become to entangled with metaphors and similes, I check out, which ultimately means I miss a big chunk of details and key events.  Sorry people ramble and I get bored!  Also, to my defense, I am book smart and do pretty well in school so I don't see why I can't be a little dumb in another area.  I have to even out my life so I am not amazing at everything. OBVI. (that means obviously)  So, that explains the ditz part.  The glitz comes from my obsession with glitter and sparkle and shine and shimmer; all those lovely, girlie words!  I think I should have been in the Glitz Pageants growing up, I would be adorable and I would win every time. :p  But, underneath all the ditsy, girlie, funness that I am, I do have a lot to offer and I wish people would take me more serious.  What better way to do this than to write everything I think and let the world wide web read about it? 
I guess this is enough for my first piece of writing.  Not too exciting or too creative, I know, but just keep expecting this type of thing to keep happening ha!
