The word of the day for this fine and amazing Thursday, is-
HIPPOCAMPUS!-a gland in your brain which helps memory.
-when there is a hippo on campus.
Either one, I like them both :) Even if one isn't valid :D

DISCLAIMER!!!!
This is for Buck, and Baby Boo.
My week! Well it's been eventful to say the least, where to start?! How about Sunday! A very good place to start!
I went to Jesus school, and then came home and slept on my absent roommates bed, my other roommate was putting away clothes, and the girl who is supposed to be in my room with me has decided that she no longer needs to live in our house, (long story), anyways I am TIRED of sleeping in my room all alone, when I go to sleep I like to chat with friends, being a female ( if you are one) you should know the universal need to talk before sleeping. Well I needed that. So I went in Sandra's room and slept on Alyssa's bed, and talked to Sandra until I happily fell into a lovely slumber. Ahhh happy Sunday naps :)
After such nap, which was after Jesus school, I went to Institute Graduation, where I received an award for being a good Mormon and going to Institute classes on a (somewhat) regular basis :D
Then I got an ice cream treat form Big Will, thank you kind sir, consider this your shout out. :)
Then I went to J's and we had a good 3 hour chat about everything life like. It was refreshing to just talk, enough of this multi-tasking crap. I want to just do one thing at a time and be considered doing a good job, that is a good point my sister in law Keri brought up this week. I agree Keri, one thing at a time is PLENTY. Trust me you do two at once, you wind up tripping on flat ground while walking slowly, not that that particular situation has ever happened to me. But no really, watch those flat surfaces, their a killer.
Monday i went to class...spare me. After wards I drove to Lordsburg picked up the Parental Units and drove to ABQ and studied (If you can call it that), then Tuesday I went to a Internship Interview in Santa Fe, Hippie Capitol of NM, and it all went very well.
They asked lots of questions, told me lots of facts about them, asked what I wanted in life and so on, then me and Mom got Taco Bell! Yeah!
I will find out about the job on Monday, if I get it, I will move to the 505 and work there from June1-August 27. But it pays well and it would be great experience,if not I'm going to stay in Thatch Town and go to school and (continue) to look for hell, I mean a job. :D
Anyways after that on Tuesday, I went home packed and we all left for LL and saw Carla and her fam for literally about 5 minutes, then drove to Lordsburg and I got my car, drove to Safford, and went straight to the library and studied for an hour before they closed, and went home and prayed that the little studying I had got accomplished would help pull me through a wreck of a bio test.
I took that test today, oh good grief. Screwed is Emilee.
For one of the answers I legitly put "I like Grape" I didn't know the answer at ALL, and I thought maybe if I could make the teacher laugh he would give me the point. We shall see. Needless to say that test was a little bit like Elton John, GAY.
No offense love his music, hated that test.
Anyways other than that today was AWESOME! I went grocery shopping, which to a college student is the highlight of their week, and I know I don't speak for myself on that!
Anywho, looks like a promising week and I should be getting a letter from a beloved Missionary this week, Elder Montie! I hear he is already a zone leader in the MTC and his roomies love him so all is well!
Hope everyone is doing well! Much love, and smile, there really is no reason not to :)

So this week is going to be good :) I have already decided, no matter what things are changing or making life less than convenient, this week will be grand! Life is too short to live otherwise!
Here are some of the things that make MY life happy :)
The Bark Park in ABQ, just the name itself implies utter Joy :D
The Color Orange exudes a aura of pleasantness!
Sitting on the kitchen floor in the morning, amidst the hub-ub, trying to wake up enough to figure out what everyone is up to.
Peacocks, God's proof that He loves me and wants me to be happy :D
From the "Baptist's At Our B-B-Q" Movie, When Tartan throws up on the floor after eating "funger" and Orvil says, "Wish I had a dog.". A simple solution to a less than pleasant problem! Gets me every time :)
I really can NOT get enough of the word "Pemberly", it rolls off the tongue so nicely!
There is nothing more inviting in this world then seeing a clear and still large body of Blue pristine water, especially on a hot day, your in your suit and the anticipatory tingles flood your senses as you image the split second before your nervous system realizes that your wet and OH SO HAPPY!
I love the sound of my Long board on gravel, so loud yet just dull enough to let my thoughts easily glide over it and proceed with whatever thought process, if not 7, I'm in the middle of.
The smell of Sulfur, the sting of it in your nose the split second after a firework has gone off, you can literally feel the waft enter your body and take over EVERY other smell in the vicinity. My dad made fireworks when I was younger so this takes me back to an ENTIRE scene at the old house, the "Dog House", his work shed, would be at eh end of the property and often the sun would be going down when I was sent to ever so politely ask him to come in for a phone call, "DAAAAAAAAAAADDD!!!!!!!!PHOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!" Good job EP, you are a true helper ;)
Phillie's Baseball! Win or lose the look of the Verde grass, the crisp uniforms, the fans all clad in red and Philadelphia blue, nothin' like it, nothin' better!
The smell of animals, call me gross but that, "Fresh from the barn" smell makes me smile every time!
Shapes Mac N' Cheese, there is something to the geometry of the shape that seems to hold more cheese flavoring, it WILL be proven to be THE cheesiest someday I'm sure of it!
Ferris Bueller.Need I say more? I didn't think so.
Weezer, all of it.
Post Secret Sunday's, there is power in knowing others secrets, even if you don't know them at all.
Tie Dye ANYTHING, it's EP's National Color!
Knowing that someday I will be in Ireland.
My best friends :) You know who you are :)
Dancing, the thing I do when I don't know HOW else to function.
Crying, whether you admit it or not, its a release.
Laughing, whether you know it or not, it Always helps.
I love Elizabeth and Darci's relationship, in an odd way it is completely dysfunctional, and I totally understand it.
Sleeping on my tummy. Makes me happy.
Making up my own words, I said it, you got it, it's a word! Webster ain't got nothin' on me!
Mi familia. They have to love me :) (they kinda like it too...shhh don't tell ;) )
Cloudy Days, they make me warm and fuzzy inside.
Gossip Girl.Don't judge.
Inside jokes, there are WAY too many to count haha
A book that takes me away.
This could go on forever, but I will leave you with that for now :)

P.S. I love you Gramsy!
Just when I think that I am doing awesome, I say, or do, or think something completely off base! Why is that this always QUITE literally RIGHT after I have a whole thought process about how awesome I am doing?! Because I need too be humbled I would venture! I think it has something to do with the notion that the Lord will continue to try you with something until you have shown that it is no longer something that you struggle with. There is wisdom in that, however it is quite hard to be able to get up on your feet when the bully is punching your face WHILE your standing up, rough right?!
So my question is how do I outsmart the bully BEFORE he punches me, and the usuals don't count. Praying and reading my scriptures are a definite help, I see them as the buffer that keeps me from being completely clobbered at every waking moment, however I feel the need for more! Don't read this wrong please! I LOVE my life , but I know we all struggle with things and mine seems to be getting kicked while I'm still trying to get up. Whew, trying and tiring let me just say!
Perhaps it is simply a test that will only happen for a while, endure EP, keep going! Eventually you will be able to rip the Bully's arm off and throw it at his head! I look forward to that day, and feel that it is coming upon me fast! :D
So you make desicions and you move on with your life, you live on and forget that we even had a converstaion, yet your still deciding things for me. How does that work! I want my brain to be mine, not yours!
I am in control don't get me wrong, but occassionally those little after thoughts that generally mean nothing seem to sneak attack from my blind side, which also happens to be my weak side.
Then a small mess procedes, but no worries all is back in tip top condition after a little sleep and a phone call to a most beloved best friend. It just never ceases to amaze me how hopefull I am about some people changing there evident and very inconvient faults.
I once asked if I was really so stupid as to believe what had been laid out so beautifully before me, when a good friend of mine wisely replied, "Your not stupid, you are hopeful.".
Well hope our train has had an abrupt stop, sorry for the inconvience, but don't expect an apology, or even a friendly "Oh hello, I didnt' see your heart there.My bad.", cause as in the past tradition, its not coming.
Disclaimer: This IS about a boy, you guessed it. I don't talk to him anymore, I haven't in months. But he is still chasing down my sane thought process and slaughtering it in the streets of my mind. His predictable behavior has struck again and it caught me off guard. Don't be alarmed, I'm fine, just using my blog as an outlet. I actually feel alot better :) Yay for venting!
P.S. Her "amazingly beautiful" blue eyes, yeah they are contacts. Just a heads up.
S. Clearless.
