No Nonfiction Friday

So everyone should be aware that the Aggies are playing in Idaho on Friday at 10:30 (am)! That should keep everyone happy for a while.

I would like to blog about the amazing past two days (including today).

Yesterday was ST. PATRICK's day, and boy do I hate St. Patrick. The St. Patrick I know about gave amazing sermons and helped a lot of people in the Christian faith, but he killed a lot of people who wouldn't convert to his faith. To me, pinching someone because they aren't wearing green symbolizes killing someone because they aren't of your faith. So, yeah, I hate St. Patrick's day.

BUT GOOD NEWS! I found a reason to love St. Patrick's day! That very same day that I used to abhor is Keara Lei's birthday! So now I don't hate St. Patrick's day--I just hate St. Patrick.

anyway, I think she had a lot of fun, and let me tell you what i gave her because you can use my idea for your own friends if you want.

Keara Lei loves Smilies fruit snacks from Walmart. She loves the red and purple ones, and the orange ones are okay. However, in each packet of 10 fruit snack pieces, 6-8 of the pieces are yellow or orange, so she doesn't get a lot of her favorite fruit snacks. So, I was walking through Walmart one day and I got an idea. I wanted to get her a box of just red and purple smilies. I almost didn't, but Becca the Fill was at the store with me and assured me that it was a good idea (because I was doubting myself--I get a lot of stupid ideas and I thought this was one of them). So I got some boxes of smilies (not revealing how many, because that's not the point) and becca helped me get all of the purple and red ones out. We ended up with 4.5 sandwich ziplocs full of yellow and orange smilies and 1.5 bags of red and purple ones. Then we put those red and purple ones into some of the empty smilies bags that we were very careful to open and we resealed them and put them in a smilies box that we were very careful to open and we resealed it. Then I hid it and had a difficult time keeping the surprise from Keara Lei because I get excited to give people presents. I ended up giving it to her at 12:00 am on her birthday. :D It was a fun gift.

Then, I went to nonfiction today and it was my professor's birthday! His wife and two of his kids came in and brought us cake. And he told us the story of how he met his wife, and they saw each other twice before he went on his mission and they had their first date (a musical at a high school) 2.5 years later and he fell asleep. :) Then he cancelled class on friday thanks to the aggies game!

Ha ha ha ha ha! My next blog is my 44th! YES!

Book Earrings

Look at the title.

What the heck does that mean?

Read on and find out.

But first I'm going to type about my exciting morning!

There are things in life that are supposedly simple to do or easy to understand. Well, you know how frustrating it is when you can't do them or you don't understand them?

Well, I didn't understand Photoshop, so I couldn't do simple things on it. But now I can!

Does anyone else hear the bells?

Photoshop is one of my new favorite things in the entire world. GEEEEEEE I love it!

Number Two: (not that I labeled number one, but i like to label the twos in life)

Last night Shelly (roommate) was talking on her phone (cellular device) from 10:30ish to 11:52pm last night (when I was trying to sleep). Not only was she talking (loudly), she was also laughing her shrill chug-a-lug-almost-snorting laugh (also loudly) last night (when I was trying to sleep). She has been doing this for the past two months (talking and laughing loudly on her cellular device when I am trying to sleep), but she usually gets off the phone at 11:30pm (still when I am trying to sleep). This condition of hers to wait until late at night to call people is getting worse, and if it continues and if I keep losing sleep because of her, I think I'm going to lose it, and I'll lose it all over her.

I consider myself a nice person, just so long as I get my sleep, food, and drinks.

But Shelly dear is messing with my requirements of being a nice person. If I get mean, I will be very sorry, because I'm not very fun to be around when I am mean, and I am all about people having fun around me. But I want as much sleep as I can get.

BOOK EARRINGS!

Yay! I will explain this to you!

Do you like books? Do you like having books around you even if you don't plan on reading them?

Introducing Book Earrings (as found on wikihow)! Now it is possible to wear earrings with 1 inch tall books attached to them! They come completely customized because you make them yourself!

What do you have to do for these book earrings?

All you have to do is wait! I'm making an instruction set for making these nifty little accessories!
So stop worrying about your bookless ears and start waiting for a solution! You'll have books around you whenever you want in the near future!

NUMBER 4: (I didn't label number three either. I think today is Label Even Numbers Day. Put it on your calendar)

I'm going to work on my homework now. Good luck guessing what I'm doing. :D

Cords

I dedicate this post to my mother. Without her, I would be missing out on great comments. Thanks, Mom.

Now, you might be asking yourself why this post is called "Cords".

If you aren't, then I'll ask it for you.

"Hey, Brittany, why is this called 'Cords'?"

Good question, Brittany. I'd love to tell you. Love to.

Recently, I've decorated the living room, with the help of my good friend Aurie. I would like to take a picture of the walls and cupboards in the kitchen, because then I could post it online for everyone to see. I know everyone would think, "Oh, how cute and fun and silly! That's a very creative way to bring color into a dull, boring, cheap-hotel-looking apartment!" I just know those are the exact words that would go through everyone's minds!

But I cannot find the cord for my digital camera--the one that lets me transfer photos from the camera to the computer.

So where is the fun in that, I ask you?

That is also a great question, Brittany.

Next topic.

I want someone to make a musical device that blinds everyone so that I can dance even if I'm in the middle of the grocery store and no one will notice. They will be too busy with their sudden problem of blindness and wondering how they will find the rest of their groceries and get home.

I think that would be a very convenient product, and I would buy it.

Next topic.

I have another bedtime story for all of you.

Once upon a time, a U.S. Naval Ship and Canadian Authorities off the coast of Newfoundland had a conversation over the radio:

U.S.: Please change your direction 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision.

Canada: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to South to avoid a collision.

U.S.: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

Canada: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course.

U.S.: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER ENTERPRISE, WE ARE A LARGE
WARSHIP OF THE US NAVY. DIVERT YOUR COURSE NOW!

Canada: This is a lighthouse. Your call.

And they lived happily ever after.
