Hey gang!

Okay so this past week was kind of quite, thank god! Only one test, one meeting and one practice. Nicole, Preston, Preston's dad and brother and I were supposed to go skiing on Saturday, but all day Friday they had blizzard warnings up like crazy! So we did not want to risk it and get stuck on 70 and have to stay there over night so we ended up not going. Hit up I HOP on Saturday morning and loved every minute of it...ITS A WONDERFUL CHOICE. Nicole and I went to the last home basketball game. It was great we kicked some COWBOY butt! Sunday I had to work, 8-2:15. A little bit of homework, a glorious nap, supper, work meeting and chill-axing. I watched a bunch of movies this past weekend and over all it was not quite as eventful and busy as I was anticipating, but that is fine. I got to spend some time with friends and just relax.

Life before....

What was life like before Mike?
....I did not receive drunken phone calls at 1:30 in the morning....
....I did not have to deal with incompetent people at work....
....I was not treated sh*tty at work....
....the world had a lot less use of the word, a**hole....
....the world was a lot happier :).....

I was just bored and thought after the other night this was a good post :)

What is my favorite word/acting....Procrastination:)

Well its been awhile since I have updated, whoops! Hey now, don't yell at me though I have been so busy with school,work, meetings and what-have-you. On Monday I had my market lamb evaluation in Live and Dead and I did GREAT. I was very excited, I got a 96%, one of the best around me. On Tuesday I had my math test and I got a 100%. I work on Tuesday also- I processed calves:tattooing, ear tagging, birth weights, 4 CC of C and D and ear notching. Then I had to bring the calves in from the pivot pasture and the Conference Center pasture. Happy Valentines Day y'all! The day started off not too bad, then it turned worse. When you deal/talk with others who are down they bring you down, then I was having a strong hatred for Hallmark. They just needed an excuse to make more money and to tell the world, "hey this girl/guy is single." But anyways, I had class, a meeting for Ag Ambassadors, class, AFA meeting. Then Luke and I hung out for quite a while. And I have to say I was fairly impressed. So anyways the day ended up pretty good. It was just stupid of me to get upset and being pitiful- where does that get me? NOWHERE! Thursday I worked: we weighed heifers and took hip heights. I got my wrist smashed in between two steel gates with the stupid freaking heifers pushing on it. To this day it is still a little sore, I am pretty lucky I didn't get stepped on or kicked. Friday: I had my Live and Dead Market Lamb Exam. I am not too sure how I did, it was rough!
So Nicole left me for the weekend, so I decided I would rearrange the room. And I have to say I like it. I was sick of having to climb up and down. I did a TON of laundry and am working on homework. Since when Nicole and I are together we get minimal done, I will catch up on things. Scholarships are due soon and those need to be worked on, the Daytona 500 is tomorrow, I miss Eastern culture! I have practice at 1 on Sunday. Maybe a rendezvous with friends tonight.
This next week looks busy too! Practice, work, school, meetings, exams, ski and work. Wow! that wears me out just typing that! Anyways thanks too all for my Valentines Day gifts I love them all especially since they will feed me as well as tell people if I fall off the mountain!
Love and miss y'all :)

Randomness, a simple pleasure:)

So apparently... here in Colorado "God tells you to have sex." This evening on the news a story was presented about... kids were being sent a flyer that was from a church in Centennial giving sex tips and saying that this was what God wanted and encouraged. <- Talk about strange and wrong! So apparently... I don't know how to walk straight. I almost fall off the sidewalk and look as if I am drunk. Also, I walk prissy>I am not sure what this means but it is what I was told.

So apparently...I don't eat and I am anorexic. For more than one person and on more than one occasion I have been told that I don't eat. Are you kidding me? Have you seen me? I weighed myself today at the gym, and let me assure you I surely DO eat.

Nicole, Preston, Robert and I at Copper:)

Also, to recap on this past weekend...I went skiing-or I should say snowboarding at Copper with Nicole, Preston and Preston's best friend Robert. And no it was NOT a set-up. We had a lot of fun and we all are looking forward to hitting the slopes in two weekends. I was not very happy with my performance this time. I felt good, but it surely was not what I had done the weekend before. I think I built up my confidence too much and then I got it shut down this time. Oh well I guess I did need to be brought back to earth. Then on Sunday I worked. I was completely covered with mud! I had to process calves-tattoo, ear tag, weigh and give a shot of C and D. Then I had to bring the calves in on a sled. I was told that the next time I do that that I need to gain 50 LBS. Are you kidding me, that is the least thing I need! Leah and I had to push ourselves out of the mud way too many times-although it was pretty funny:) Then today, I had class from 9-3, 6-7:15. I feel fairly good about today, it went smooth and I got somethings done.

Nicole and I at Copper Mountain:)

Okay another tangent...What is so great about Valentine's Day? I believe that it is just singles awareness day and a way for the flower, candy and card companies to make money during this "down time." To be perfectly honest I feel that Hallmark made this holiday up to increase their revenue.

One more...I know that I am stubborn, but can you enlighten me as to why? Nicole told me this tonight and I agreed with her, but like I said can you tell me why you think this?

And the answer Alex is....

I am bored and I am doing what I do best, that is procrastination.

Cramer Please!

Just a few words to start us out...this is the story of a man named Brady...to the left...who pooped?....Cramer please! Okay, okay so I will move on:
Thursday: Class from 9-11. Then I packed up. I washed my truck, vacuumed it out and cleaned the dash board. My truck has not been cleaned since I left Ohio in August. My dash board had seriously a 1" thick layer of dirt! Carrie and Abdul kept calling me telling me that their flight had been delayed. So finally at 3:30 I left, they should have been here at 2! I filled up with gas~$1.99 and window washer fluid. It took me over 2 hours to get to the airport (over twice the normal time). So we then headed to Copper. After trying to get to Bass Pro Shops off 70 on Quebec Street, well needless to say, we failed. So we kept on "truckin'" we stopped to eat supper in Idaho Springs at Wildfire Cafe. We arrived at Copper around 10:30.

Friday: We woke up, the temperature was -8 (without wind chill factored in), 45 mph winds. It was frigid. No skin was allowed to be showing or you got yelled at by the lift attendants. Lifts were being shut down up at the top because of the wind. The conditions were powdery but white out conditions. My ankle strap broke up at the top and I had to slide down on my heel edge half way down the mountain, talk about burn! Anyways I got my snowboarding "wings!" Yeah:)(the Coppercade)

Saturday: The wind died down, the temperature rose, the snow stopped and the sun came out! I skied today and it was a great day! Carrie and I walked around the village in the evening and did a little shopping. While walking we discovered 1/2 off RMCF-Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory-caramel apples-and let me tell you they are not just any apple, scrumptious! Plus they gave us chocolate covered strawberries to walk around with. MMM, MMM good! Carrie and I also went over to the hot tub and relaxed for a bit.(Carrie and I in a huge Adirondack chair)

Sunday: We woke up early and hit the slopes again. Abdul and I skied the back bowls-Copper, double black diamond, EX-expert terrain only! What an adrenaline rush, to look over the edge was seriously a straight drop off- 90 degrees. CRAZY! Carrie, Abdul and I had so much fun skiing and boarding this weekend. We headed back to DIA around 12:30. We stopped in Frisco to eat lunch at an all natural foods store and then got coffee in Idaho Springs. I set mine on my dashboard and went to do a U-turn. The coffee flew into my eyes and all over my nice clean truck. When we got back into Denver we finally made it to Bass Pro Shops. Abdul got a Buck knife, some things for camping and a leatherman. Carrie got a really cute pair of shoes. And I got my knife sharpened and cleaned. I dropped them off at the airport around 4:20 and got back up to Fort Collins around 5:30. I unpacked, did laundry, caught up on the net and started in on homework. I then studied for my econ test. And cried to my good friend, Ryan.

Monday: Class 9-3, 5-7:15. Today as in the the last day was not the greatest. I didn't do that great on my econ test. I missed a homework assignment and quiz in Live and Dead on Friday that I can't make up and I forgot my chem folder to turn in my lab assignment. Thank god Nicole brought it for me. Then got up in cahoots with people. I hit up the gym in the middle there to relieve some major stress. Ate some supper and was highly disappointed that What About Brian was not on.

I have a pretty busy week so I may not update that often. Meetings, school, work, tests, homework, skiing, scholarships and projects.

Any questions ask me~:)
