Because...

I have decided that because I am an old married woman with a very interesting life, it is time to make my blog....more....understandable. So everyone understands what is new with my cute and sweet husband. So yes. I will start with....Hmm...School.
This semester Jacob and I decided it was time for me to head back and finish up school. I applied for pell grants, and got one. So next came the admissions to Utah State. A big joke. I applied at the very beginning of November. A few weeks went by and the school sent me a letter saying that I hadn't paid the admission fee and they hadn't received my transcript. So I printed of my bank statement, marched myself into the office, and pointed out the error. I called Eastern Utah, they had my transcript on the way, SLCC doing the same. A few more weeks went by. Another letter. Apparently I still hadn't paid my admission fee, and my SLCC transcript hadn't come. This time, when I brought my bank statement, it also showed the SLCC transcript had been paid for. So after some research, they found my transcript filed under my maiden name (which was listed on my file). I was told to come back in a few days (it now being the beginning of January), to see if I was accepted. When I went back, I was told I was to late to be accepted, as it was to close to the beginning of the semester. Well that wasn't a good enough answer for me, so I wanted to meet with the head of admissions. Finally! Two months later! I am officially an Aggie.
Now school has started and it has been so exciting for me to get back into the swing of things. I am taking twelve credits and loving it. I am so happy to be finishing my education. What a happy thing! Only two years left :) So that is that. My effort to start a more "normal" blog.

yes thats right

I really do not appreciate self righteous people. Especially when they are your college professor. I mean really. Your opinions are not going to give me a full understanding of the subject. Please understand that there are more people studying the same things that you study. These people may or may not have opinions that vary from what you are teaching me. As your student I feel that I will gain a better understanding of the subject by having a curriculum that is not based off of your findings, your text, and your website. Now that I have said that, Mark McGwire! You suck. Do not lie. Steroids. Really. You know that you did them so that you could become the "ultimate" baseball player. So quit lying and saying that you did it for health reasons. If you really did take them for health reasons, don't you think you would have stopped taking them? Especially since they didn't "improve your game." You are a liar. I hate you. And yet Pete Rose cannot make it into the hall of fame. Also to the Logan newspaper, "The Herald Journal," please get a new editor. Check your facts. Don't put that the same team had two games in one day. Or that cattle are really sheep. History of China, please please please let me survive the semester. And the bookstore, you ordered my book a week ago. I really need it. Please get it or I will fall behind in my lit class. On the bright side, I can see the sky. ITS BLUE!! And BEAUTIFUL! I missed it so much. And today I made corn, ham, and potato chowder. I am so excited. The end.

Thoughts of My VERY FIRST Universtiy Class...

How come some people are in there? The doors are locked. Great. I love writing papers. Why did I get up so early? Gee whiz this class is huge, and it keeps growing. Okay Katie, surely you can figure out how this desk flap thing works. This teacher is like two years older than me. Still don't get the desk thing. So glad I bought my book....NOT...That kids shirt is really disgusting. This building smells weird. Oh thats how the desk thing works. Okay maybe not my desk thing...I wish someone would sit in front of me so I didn't have to pay attention. Ah. Its so early. Okay now the desk thing works. To bad my notebook barely fits on it. Is it time to go yet? Seriously people, if you would just listen, he already answered that question. The end.
