Contention is of the devil.

I go through phases.
I fail at blogging and then suddenly I am quite on top of things [yes, that IS what she said.]
I find it quite amusing though. Getting my thoughts out of my head and onto some electronic device.
But I guess that's what happens when you get a laptop for your birthday. You love it too much.
As you can see...I've learned to change the background. So now it is something I enjoy looking at.
It's funny. Yesterday it was a whopping 82 degrees and today it is raining. Only in Utah.

Today, I realized how competitive I am.
And I realized that my competitive nature is almost dangerous to those surrounding me. We played a game in Seminary today, where we answer questions and depending on whether we answer right or wrong, we move up or down a seat. I had no such luck in becoming the "top dog". I came close once [number 3] and I was defeated by this girl. It was quite clear that we tied, however, she refused to accept the concept. It made me quite angry but I reluctantly took my seat at number 5. I continued to move down the seats till I came back to my original spot [number 9 out of 21]. I moved up and down, but remained in the same few spots. My friends pointed out that I yell when I get riled up. They told me I was "dangerously hilarious". There was another point, when this sophomore in my class won a second time. I yelled amidst the students "WHY? He already got candy!" The only reason this was funny was because it was dead silent. Ironically my teacher asked what 3 Nephi 11:29 was about. The answer:
Contention is of the devil.
Defined by mood and actions during the game. Ironic eh?

I am looking forward to a lot of things.
My new car [I have no idea what kind, I just know I'm getting one. Hopefully this week.]
Senior Prom [this Saturday. And I LOVE my dress. I will post pictures when I take them.]
California Trip [one week from tomorrow. SO excited.]
College [BYU...here I come. Even though I am a Ute fan.]
The Utah Jazz [2010-2011 season. Lakers...you going down.]
Posting this post. Ha.


Tonight is our final [spring] a'cappella concert and I cannot explain the joy I will feel when it is finally over. To be quite honest, we are NOT ready. But winging it means winging it. I have a feeling something hilarious will happen.
I am anxiously awaiting a new bag and wallet. I got both for $20 total. Great deal!
Now I just wait for the postman to come.
