Habits Hard to Break

One habit I have that I find difficult to break is procrastinating...I have the hardest time doing my assignments ahead of time. Granted I always get the assignment done..whether it's earlier that morning or the night before. But I just wish that I would use my free time and get some extra things done. When I do have free time the last thing I want to do is homework..so I just put it off until it needs to be done. But I think everyone is guilty of procrastinating. It really is just a pain in the butt and gets on my nerves. Another bad habit I have is talking bad about people. I hate this one more than anything. Usually you talk bad about someone just to make conversation, or to get frustration off your chest. But honestly it's not worth it. After I have spoken bad about someone I feel horrible and wish I could take what I just said back..and I try and try to make myself not take about people but it's truly a hard habit to break. I just need to keep working on it everyday and I'll get better!

Profiling

At the beginning of the semester, I knew exactly what I wanted to be and exactly who I was going to profile..but as of a few days ago this has all changed. I did want to be a speech pathologist and I knew the perfect person to interview. But I was at work the other day and a woman came in to order food, she was in scrubs so she obviously works in a hospital, or something of the sort and her name tag said NICU nurse. I light popped in my head and I immediately knew that I want to work as a Neonatal nurse..its should be the obvious profession for me because I love making a difference and I love working with children, especially babies. I have loved and been good with babies ever since I was a little girl, and I have always wanted to be a teacher..but pay isn't that good so I decided...with the help of my mom that I wanted to be a speech pathologist..which should have been my first clue that that wasn't technically my choice..I was just going with it..so now I don't have a clue who I want to...or can even profile..so I am in a bit of a pickle...I'll figure it out...soon I hope?

things things that annoy me

1. talking loud
2. trying to make yourself be noticed by being annoying
3. wal-mart
4. being ignored
5. when my phone service doesn't work
6. people talking while I'm trying to nap
7. waking up in the morning
8. people who cannot drive
9. ignorant people at work who leave their trash/ask stupid questions
10. lazy people who don't do their work

Hmmm...So I think being ignored is possibly the most ANNOYING thing in the world. One thing that goes with it is repeating myself..which I also hate. When I am talking and I clearly have your attention, then you don't bother listening I do not feel the need to repeat myself because obviously what I was saying wasn't important enough to begin with so I won't mention it again. It happens a lot with my boyfriend..which I give him a little slack because it is proved men just aren't good at multitasking. But it still royally pisses me off when I am talking and he does not listen to me, and then we get into a fight because I won't repeat myself! Its just plain out annoying and rude. My mom is the same way...she will ask you how your day was then walk in the other room without listening..which I think she got from having four kids..she has learned to just drown out listening to people. I just wish everyone will listen and take the time to listen to other people!!!!! :)

What I look forward to

I had all last weekend off of work...but that really didnt count because I was in super duper pain the whole time...and it just wasn't a good weekend. First of all the Braves are out..and Bobby Cox is retired. Thats worthy for at least three days of mourning. But I have this whole weekend off of work again..and I am very excited to go and do my plans. This weekend, since its Halloween/Fall time me, my boyfriend Dillon, my sister Chelsea, and her boyfriend Tony and possibly some other people are taking my nephew Xan to the pumpkin patch and Zoo Boo!!! I enjoy this so much because I love how excited Xan gets and he enjoys it so much. And he is a whole year older than last year so I think he'll enjoy it even more!!! He is going to be Buzz Lightyear for Halloween this year and I am so excited about it. I got him the "deluxe" costume so he will be decked out!!! I just love spending time with my family and friends and especially my little nephew because he is the light of my life!!

Facebook?

The day before yesterday, in a fit of rage..I deactivated my Facebook account. As much as I hate it, I cannot stand to be away from it. It is truly sad how much of peoples lives are devoted to Facebook. I love going on Facebook to look at my friends who have gone off to college and keep up with them...but at the same time it get depressing. I dont necessarily "make" FB friends, I just have my friends who I know from real life as my friends, or mutual friends. I dont stay on FB to chit chat with random singles or anyone for that matter. I think FB is a good gateway for friends, but it can be dangerous and potentially deadly. Not only does it kill your social life, because all you know is FB and whats going on there..but just like any other website there are cyber bullies who take advantage of their privileges on FB to hurt and abuse people. I have seen multiple people bashing other people on their statuses for absolutely no reason. It makes me sick to my stomach and all I can think is that those people have no self esteem. It just fires me up to see "adults" act like children and be so irresponsible. I also see people who put nonsense on their FB pages..and I think to myself that employers check out FB for potential hires and these people will never get a job in their life if thats the case. I just wish FB would go away and we could get back to reality.

WEED

So what does everyone think about legalizing marijuana? I mean proposition 19 is going through trying to get passed in a few states and they're saying by "controlling" the selling, buying, and use of marijuana..kinda like regulations on alcohol will improve the economy, and stop mexican drug cartel and gangsters from benefiting from the sell. I just do't think that legalizing marijuana is a smart thing to do because for one..you have people like me who obey the laws and dont smoke marijuana for just that reason..because it's illegal. Now you will have law abiding citizens being added to the mix of marijuana users. And just like alcohol and tobacco products get into the hands of young adults..this will too. Once a dangerous and inaccessible will now be on the shelves for parents to freely give to their teenagers. People in this world just aren't smart enough to take on that large of a responsibility to smoke pot in a orderly manner and not take it overboard.

Ole Wisdom

My wisdom teeth were coming in, and I went to the dentist and sure enough they needed to come on out. The first place I went to didn't work with my mom's insurance, so they wanted $900 something dollars to do the surgery..she wasn't having that so we went somewhere else where it was about $450ish which is still ridiculous for something of the sort. So anyway we scheduled it for Friday, the 8th and I went on in and got it done. The surgery without insurance is over $1000 which she said people actually come in and pay that much for the surgery! Insane. Anyway everyone had talked to me about how AWESOME anesthesia is but it definitely WASNT!! I was all ready for surgery, and all I needed was a little bit of heaven. So they tried sticking me..and wiggled it around a bit...then tried again in the same place...then tried again in my hand, "had it flowing" then had to finally get it in my other arm. I was in tears before I passed out, which wasn't what I had expected from what everyone says..That was on friday, and I am still swollen, numb, and hurting. Luckly I have all my meds, but that honestly doesnt make it all better. They said my nerves were all messed up, or they messed them up, whatever so the numbness wont go away for say days, weeeks, or forever! Who knows :) But wisdom teeth and anesthesia weren't fun.
