Random Thoughts of Pretty Days, Arizon and Strange Urges

Do you ever get random urges to do something?
For example:

I will get random urges to just smack my friend Spencer in the face. Out of the middle of nowhere. He IS anoying at times, but the urges are completely random.

....

On certain days I have the most overwhelming urge to go for a really long walk. Like those days that are perfect for strolling around a park with your lover holding your hand. Those days that would be perfect for a picnic and flying kites. Ah! With a perfect blue sky with adorable clouds, if there are clouds at all. And a breeze that isnt too hot, but not too cold either. Days where the birds sing the prettiest tunes and the crickets and cicadas create an orchestra. These are the days I walk home the long way and sit at random park benches just to stare at the sky. These are the days that I feel like skipping and spinning in circles. I love it! These kind of days happen all throughout the year, sometimes they are in fall, winter, summer, or spring.

Arizona has the most beatiful sunsets and skys and ah! they are so pretty. I love the way the desert feels at night. So...serene. Its so quiet here in Arizona. Back in Cali, there were busy streets and police sirens, gunshots even. (haha I'm exagerating a bit) But here, its crickets and cicadas. I love how the best time to swim is at night. 8pm, 10 pm, 3am, you name it. In the summer, its absolutely amazing.

But yes...back on topic.

I love pretty days. Days where picnics and holding hands and skipping are just a natural thing. Days that make you giddy and happy inside, that make you giggle for no reason. Those are my faovrite days...

Busy as a Bee (What am I going to do in IB?!)

Life is crazy.

Like...I haven't a single day off.
This week looked something like this:
  • Monday-Crazy english project due, babysat after school till 5, came home, lots of school work, some Facebook time, and then sleep.
  • Tuesday-AP World History project due, see above
  • Wednesday-hmmm. dont even remember anymore. Oh, today was a nice break, i put everything else off to go hang out with Sissy, then went to mutual, came home, sleep.
  • Thursday-school. LOTS of studying.
  • Friday (Today)-Two tests in school, an oral presentation due, worked from 3-7, came home, did chores.
  • Saturday-Chores, Hilary and Cassie come over, babysit some more, DANCE!
  • Sunday-Sing in both sessions of Stake Conference 9-?, Mia Maid metting @4, fireside at 6

Hey, thats life right?

I just feel a little drained lately. And stressed. But I'm always stressed. I will die of stress related colitis just like Wilbur Wilberforce. (He abolished the slave trade in England, in case you didnt know. He was a very deticated person who was continually ill because of stress. But, he did accoplish great things, so maybe its worth it..?)

I'm now "working". Not exactly what society calls a real job or a real paycheck, but I'm still not able to get a real, paying job. So I babysit. Two to three times a week till 5-7pm. $20 a week isnt so bad. Although, it is pure torture to make babies cranky while they are teething, it makes the whole world miserable. lol
