Time to Catch Up

Usually when I come home the people across from my apartment are blasting Spanish music.. which makes sense because they are Mexicans. Today I was greeted with something I recognized, the Spanish people had American Idiot by Green Day cranked up so the whole complex could hear. Funny stuff.

Saturday I went to the grocery store, I was surprised how much fun shopping for food on my own could be. I had a great time. Not to mention the 30 year old looking man trying to flirt? with me while trying to pick out vitamins to help your body when it gets old...  yaa.. Haha but nothing tops the college student with his grocery list written all our his arms in a black sharpie marker. Dad you would be proud, bread was .88 so I bought 2 and froze one. I also bought a nice biggg thing of tortillas that I separated and froze for later :] You taught me well. Not only was it  a successful trip but right after I was done putting away all my food I updated my checking account and saved it! Now that is an accomplishment. I am keeping up on all of my spending making sure I don't go over :] Thanks Mom and Dad for yelling at me for never doing it before. It has finally stuck.

Church was great, my Bishopric is amazing. I cannot wait for next Sunday. The Stake first Counselor gave the Sunday School lesson. He introduced the Stake theme for the semester. It is a very familiar scripture, "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity."-1 Timothy 4:12. Tonight for FHE the Stake wanted to do a get to know the Stake Presidency. They are all great too. I feel soo blessed to have such awesome Ward and Stake leaders. The lesson they gave was really weird though.. My whole stake is pretty much return missionaries so they emphasised dating.. The Stake President said something about 3 P's? Prepared, Paid for, and Paired off... Not use to hearing that one said over the pulpit. Haha Ohhhhh boyyyyyy..

Today was a little hectic... I was so tired this morning so I don't think I started off right. I dropped my little Baby off to get its oil changed for the first time by myself. The guy was really helpful so that was nice. I made it back in time to eat my lunch. We learned allllll about coloring hair. It was kinda intense, alot to take in. We did a super fun activity with cup cakes though. We made the 3 primary colors with food coloring and frosting, then we had to take from the 3 and make secondary colors like red-violet and yellow-green. It was fun mixing the colors to make it just right. I had to make blue-green 

I think it turned out pretty dang close.

We had to make brown and black.. those ones were hardd.

After we were done I ate a whole think of frosting... ughhhh so much for being healthy. And thenn if that wasn't enough, I ate 2 cupcakes. The stupid things were so good.

I figure you all saw my lovely white girl corn rows. Ya, I was stupid and left them in too long with loads of gel.. So I take out all the braids and brush it all out. Everything was fine, super easy to brush no prob. I go to wash it out in the sink, shampoo and condition, take it out and dry it off. As I sit there waiting for my friend I notice something is realllllllyyyyyyyy wrong.. My dolls head is one HUGE knot with the texture of dread locks. I have no idea what happened. I did what I always did when I washed. My teacher is freaking out and is like "I have never seen this happen before!!" and goes around to show the other teachers laughing.. Haha it was a superr funny sight but I had no idea how I was going to get it out!! It took about 2 hours and lotsssssss of conditioner. 

NO BUENO

 If that didn't stress my out, then leaving Baby to get her Oil Change surely did. I dropped it off at lunch so I could pick it up at 5 when I was done with class. The guy was super helpful because I had noooo idea what I was doing. The hair mess thing took until 5 30 so freaking out I run over to the car place and luckily they were still open. Huh, so happy today is done with.

                              I know it could have been much much worse so I am grateful.
