Thoughts on Those of the Male Persuasion.

Ingrid, ShoSho, Pterodactyl and I are in the A Cappella Club here at BYU. One Tuesday evening, we were walking back to our dorm after a club meeting when we passed a group of guys. Suddenly, one of the guys says, "Hey ladies, look how fast I can run," and takes off running. And we all burst out laughing, and proceeded to discuss all the way home how that was just a particularly blatant example of what ALL MALES DO.

It's true.

Men just crave attention from women. It doesn't matter whether they like the women, or would ever date the women, or find the women remotely attractive. They just want their existences validated and so they attempt to gain praise by being ridiculous show-offs.

So now, whenever we notice a guy showing off in some manner or other, we say "Ladies, look how fast I can run" and collapse in a fit of immature giggles, much to the confusion of the poor male who has just failed in his attempt to impress us with whatever (getting a concussion, being able to hit a low B flat, knowing pi to 500 places, etc.). All of the previous examples, by the way, actually happened.

So yes. Boys are ridiculous.

In other news, you should get on YouTube RIGHT NOW and watch the movie "Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging." The book is better, but the movie is still basically the funniest thing ever.

Hugs and Kisses,

This Isn't A Real Post

Rather, it's the lyrics to Medusa's favorite song, in their entirety. It's possibly the most poignant and beautiful song ever.


And So it Goes
by Billy Joel

In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense

And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose

But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you
As if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break

And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows

LALALALALALA...AROOooOOOO!

Hello everyone out there in blog-world.

It's been a while. How are you? I'm freaking fantastic. Because you know what? Medusa and I had forgotten our password to this blog and JUST NOW remembered it!!!

So I've got a lot of updating to do, on my life.

First of all, I now have a boyfriend, but you see, it's not Billy Bob Joe XII... his name is Moose. He goes to a college close by, but not too close, so I really only get to see him on the weekend...which I must say makes the reunions so much sweeter but I miss him so so much during the week. Anyway let me just say that Monday will be our 10 week "anniversary" which is good - really good, because we've dated before and didn't make it that far, ever. More on past history later, maybe. It's 11:38 and I can't go through that right now.

Anyway I love him. I'm pretty sure we're gonna get married and Medusa knows about this... she's helped me look through some dresses while I suggest ridiculously awesome shoes for her...

Oh and guess what? I got an A- on my Politics midterm exam. SO HAPPY!!!!!!

Also, I'm not quite "over" Billy Bob. I guess that's bad...but...my dear Moose knows about it, and when I told him, he said it would be okay, and just held me close. That's when I knew for sure he's a keeper - now I'm just doubting myself, what if I can't keep up my end of the deal?

It will be okay, though, I had no idea I had the capacity for so much love in my heart, to give and to receive, no idea someone would know me so well from the inside out, not idea anyone could be so patiently understanding and supportive, and the best thing is, I told him I want a career, and he said he could be a stay at home dad. I love him. I love him. I love him. Need I say more?

That will be all for now...I promise I will write more frequently from now on. I had forgotten how much fun this is.

One last thing: You all should look up this Youtube video, it's Helene Segara, L'amour est un soleil... beautiful gorgeous song... ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMbvzowbFzk&a=GxdCwVVULXe5Bnh8-2G82I71DqIIqqZC&list=ML&playnext=21
