Ok so lately i've had some things on my mind that i've just had to put up for discussion. So here it goes;
1. Emoticons, good or bad?- While I can be mildly irritated by excessive use of emoticons, I really think that they're great tools, who doesn't enjoy a little smiley face at the end of a message? They work great for flirting through text! And i can't help but love the animated faces on gmail and face book chat, but when someone does some weird sideways face that you have to tilt you head at and stare for 2 minutes to figure out what emotions they're trying to get at, its just not worth it. So here's my concise opinion (that no one asked for) When texting and flirting its ok to send a smily face at the end of a message, it makes the person recieving th text smile, however when messaging or texting only use animated or emoticons that are easily understood, no one wants to spend time trying to figure your face out.
2.Text and messaging abreviations- ok so when your friend says something funny but not laugh out laough out loud funny, but not snicker funny, what do you text? And does it make a difference how many times you type/text hahaha? does that tell the other person the intensity of the laughter? Also whats the deal with brb and ttyl? I use them but would it really be that hard to just say o i have to go do something, or say good bye? Would anyone really be upset if you didn't use an abbrevitation? And when did we get so lazy?
let me know what you think.
3.And lastly this one is my personal pet peeve, because i have alot of close guy friends, but what is up with adult males calling their girl-friends bud and kiddo? I'm neither your drinking/ sports game buddy, neither am I your 5 year old niece! I'm cool with nick names and being called by my actual name, but I AM A WOMAN! Don't call me little girls nicknames, it bugs me. but what can you do.
Thats all for today, thanks for reading! :)

Alright, I've done it! I finally started a blog, for reasons I still don't understand. But I talk alot so I guess I'll have enought to say. Not that many people are going to read this though cause really I don't plan on telling many people about this, but we'll see. I guess it can help me with my lack of Journaling skills. I'll see how long this lasts. :) Anyway i want to tell you about my life so let's begin.

So this week has been a little busy with concerts, dinners, sleepovers, and color night. So to start, I went to dinner with an old friend the other day and it was great to see her and just spend time together. Then we watched Chuck, which if you haven't seen you need to look into it. It is in my opinion the best show on television right now. All in all not a bad start to the week. Then on tuesday night I went to a concert at the Starlight Room, Wintersleep and An Horse played, they were both really cool. It was my first non-country concert, so it was a new experience and I enjoyed it. Plus it helped all of us to forget about life for a while which is always nice. Then on wednesday I went with Ashleigh to enrichment, it was really fun we learned alot of random money and time saving tips. And we signed up for yoga, watched twighlight and had a sleepover at my apartment with my little sister. Busy, but fun. I'll write some of the tips at the end of this so you can see what i mean by random. Then Thurday was simply shopping and laundry at the parents. I got alot done and saved money, that's great in my books! Then Friday, by this time I was exhausted, and frankly a little grumpy, I had to spend the day at work alone and wouldn't you know it no one comes in that day. So I had no desire to go to color night (an awards/end of semester dinner and dance) but once I got there dancing was the greatest thing in the world, I love being a a crowd of people and not having anyone watching you so you can dance around like an idiot. It was GREAT! Then I had to drive my friend Jesse home to Fort Saskatchewan from Edmonton, it was a long drive, but actually alot of fun, we have similar views on the whole city vs. country thing so it was nice, and when I'm tired I have a tendency to talk about random things so it must have been an interesting late night drive for him.
Then on Saturday I went to Strathmore with my family for my 2nd cousins' joint anniversary. It was a lot of fun, my cousins from winnipeg came up for it and my cousins that live in southeren alberta were all there too and they know how to party, it was a blast two stepping ((or in my case we'll have to refer to it as an attempt) all night, my cousin Lance is probably the greatest guy to two step with, cause he litterally just twirls yoiu around the floor and you don't need to worry about following cause you dont get a choice! It was alot of fun, but it made me a little sad that we don't have more family functions like this cause it really helped me to slow down and relax which was exactly what i needed. Especially because when i got home last night it all started back up again. And I missed all of general conference, so this week I am making time to do everything especially watching conference and going to bed early......we'll see how that goes.
