Fall Break

Life has been going super crazy fast, there never seems to be enough hours in a day to get things done or to just relax before it's time to go to bed and then wake up and start all over again. I got a new job and I enjoy it much more then Opinionology. I no longer have to call people and annoy them into taking surveys, which is great because annoyed people generally tend to yell mean things at you. It's almost like they don't realize you are a real person. Being on the phone you never see the persons face so it really is like they don't really exist they are just a floating voice on the phone line whose sole purpose is to annoy and aggravate people. From working there I have learned to be more patient with the people who call me to get surveys or to sell me something because a little kindness even from a stranger goes a long way. The times that I didn't despise working there were when the people I called treated me like I was a person who had feelings, and really no matter how hard I tried the rude things that people said still affected my mood even though I knew they weren't really angry at me but at being bothered by another survey call. Now I clean student housing on campus and it's wonderful, I don't have to talk to anyone if I don't want to, I could just ignore the whole population of student housing it's great. Of course I don't ignore them because that would be plain rude but it's kinda nice to know that I could ignore them and not get in trouble for doing so. This past weekend was fall break and it was blissful, I didn't have to work on Friday because we had no school and I am not required to work on days that there is no school which is amazing! For fall break I went home and just hung out with my beautiful wonderful parents and my sister and brother in law and my cute little nephew. Going home is one of the most peaceful things in the world. I miss the quietness of the farm. I am not saying Logan is a huge city but it still sometimes feels overly crowded compared to Elwood. I love how we don't have to close our blinds in the living room at home because nobody is around to peek in the window, but in Logan it feels like the whole apartment complex is watching you if you don't close your living room blinds, I really despise that feeling, not that I am blaming the other people who live in my apartment complex because at night when it's dark outside and you have your lights on in your living room it is super easy to see in.Also I missed chasing cows back into their pens. I got to do that over fall break and it was soooo much fun. Now you may think that's a little odd but it's just something I have always loved doing maybe it's because cows are the only things that are bigger than me that are scared of me so I can actually chase them back into their pens.I am glad though that the pig didn't get out, pigs are way to smart, cows are cute but they aren't the sharpest pencil in the box. I get to go back to school tomorrow, and I really don't want to. Fall break reminded me of summer and now I just want it to be fall break every day, though I am  sure that I would get tired of fall break if it lasted forever. Anyways I hope you all have a very happy week!

Oh the scary things of life

Each one of us is scared of something, silly things, real things, imaginary things. The point is each of us is scared of something. I have...
