The Indicators that my Childhood has come to an End.

o hey...

So I am beginning to realize that my adolescent years are coming to an end. I no longer have an excuse to be emotionally crazy sometimes. My angst level will also have to decrease. blast! I will no longer be able to convince my mom to buy everything for me... dude. this time is just so bittersweet. Anyways, I am going to list the reasons/events that mark The END of my innocent years.

1. Smallville is officially over. I watched the series finale a couple weeks ago. (Spoiler alert) Clark Kent FINALLY learns to fly, after ten long years. it was fantastic!

2. The Harry Potter franchise is coming to an end in July. The movies/books are finally over... farewell! all of those midnight shows with mountain dew and pixie sticks are almost over. I remember when I saw the first harry potter book and was hesitant to read it because it looked a little silly.

3. Osama Bin Laden is dead. He has been the nation's number one enemy since I was in fifth grade. We have hunted him for ten years. He is gone. (so who is our number one enemy now?)

4. A couple of my friends are engaged! what? I will soon be attending some bachelorette parties. I have definitely moved on into a new life phase. (although I admit that I am still in denial about my friends actually getting married... It probably won't hit me until I see them in wedding dresses.)

5. I thought that I should add this one, because it is common sense... My childhood is over because I have been in college for two years now, and I am getting my bachelors degree in six months. hmmmmmm ya....

Year 2 is down. One semester to go.

It is truly a glorious day. I am done with school, and I am concluding my first weekend at home in Salt Lake. I had six finals! SIX. ah. Okay so it wasn't that bad. I don't know about other people, but finals week kind of demotivates me. (is that a word?) I work super hard all semester, and then finals week arrives and BAM! I really don't care... This is definitely not a good mind set... ugh A truly marvalous part of being a PE major is that I do not have to write papers. yes! just tests. I am pretty sure I passed all of them. I can't wait to get my grades back.

So I had to clean my apartment before I could move out. When we moved into this apartment... it was DISGUSTING. There was stuff smeared all over the walls and everything. gross. Needless to say, the apartment had to be cleaned before I could even think of relaxing in that place. We got the cleaning list, and we kind of split the jobs. My roommate was staying three days longer, so I was in charge of doing all of the less obvious jobs that would stay clean until saturday. I ended up with cleaning under the stove, fridge, washer, and dryer. ew. That was soooo gross. I don't understand, we hardly ever used the stove. So after doing all of the crazy cleaning jobs I had one thing to do. I had to fill in all of the nail and tac holes in the walls... I don't have putty for that. And then my parents suggested a genius idea. I could touch up the walls with toothpastes. yes! It took me an hour and a half to fix the walls of my room and the kitchen. holy cow. The walls of my previous apartment may or may not smell minty fresh for the next occupant. Because there were ALOT of touch ups. I also somehow managed to fit all of my stuff into my little car. phew. that was quite the adventure. So you know the rest. I have come home and now I have to unpack. I also have to totally clean out my room here. Cats, dog, and plants for the garden have taken over my room. (what? ew) This week is just testing, packing, cleaning, unpacking, cleaning again, laundry. And that is the story of my life. (very exhilarating, i know)
