Movie Marathon

~Every man's memory is his private literature.

It's been a while. I'm not doing so hot on blogging this month. But since I just did all but one assignment for Wednesday... in less than two hours (granted, I didn't really read all of the sections in Chicago-it was like 150 pages of rules that I will look up when I need them so I can get practice understanding and applying them) I thought I'd blog some :)

I had a great weekend. Went home-as always. Honestly, I'm home so much lately. And I love it. I almost spend more nights at home than I do in my apartment. One might wonder why I don't just move home... well, there are many reasons that I don't want to get into on the internet. But I'll just say I have a love-hate relationship with my apartment and living in Provo.

I saw the new movie "Thor" on Friday... now, I'm not much for the comics and superheros and all that. It was pretty good though. But then I can't compare to anything... Sometimes it seemed to drag on a little but it was worth seeing. I was also thinking how Harry Potter comes out soon! I'm excited about that. But sad the movies will be over. Which is interesting to me because I am a book person and I hate when the turn books into movies. But I guess they did this early enough in my life that it's how it is. I had only read half the books when I saw the first movie so the characters were shaped around the characters in the movie-if that makes sense. They've just been going on so long it may just be sad.

But then, when all the movies are on DVD I'm going to have a Harry Potter movie marathon. Eight movies all in a row. It's totally on my bucket list. I'm pretty excited.

Alright, due to some not-so-fun email issues, I have been unable to get onto blogger. Finally figured them out!

Feeling pretty productive today! Ya, I got nine hours of sleep last night-which I think I needed. I was so freaking tired. I didn't get as much sleep as I normally do the last two nights and have been tired by ten the last two nights... so weird for me. Anyway, I'm almost done with tomorrow's homework and halfway through Monday's!

Is it sad that I'm beginning to love the "Chicago Manual of Style"? No, it's not fun to read. But it is so useful. I'm learning so many things! I really should probably look up if I even wrote the title right, but this is my blog and I'm not going to be a perfectionist here. I did learn this week that there should only be one space after a period. Ya, I've heard people talk about it but I didn't know it was a rule and I despise it. Eww! I like my two spaces :( It's gonna be hard to change...

I did my toe nails today! Silver glitter. Haven't done them in a few months because, well, I've been wearing socks :) Haha, and it was easier to do on my floor at home because it was cement and easy to clean, but I made it work on the kitchen floor in my apartment! I'm getting excited about wearing shorts and Crocs and flip-flops and oh my gosh! I need to stop worrying so much about my writing on here! Judge me all you want if my grammar is wrong! I'm putting all that work into my homework, okay? :)

To Shave or Not to Shave

I debated taking a break from blogging because I've tried to be so on top of it... cuz that makes sense... but then I decided I have too much to say :) Even though I believe my journal suffers a little because of my blogging.

Alright, facial hair. I do not like it. I guess it looks alright on some people but still... I think it makes people look messy and un-kept. But that's just me. I'm honestly really glad that BYU has standards for facial hair. Though I don't agree with the allowance of mustaches... Haha, it was pretty funny (and sad) when I was actually at a computer testing lab when a guy was told he had to go shave in the restroom or go home and shave because he wasn't going to be able to take his test. Thing is, you could hardly see he had facial hair at all...

I guess I have a strong opinion about it but not tons to say. It's simple to me-I don't like it :)
