peeves

Now that i have been "vacationing" up here at Utah State for a substantial amount of time, i have made a list of the top 5 things that peeve me, and am now blogging to share them with you.

5. Maintenance- So i understand that these housing guys have a lot of houses to fix, but they don't prioritize! it took them a good 4 weeks to fix our heat! and heat in Logan is kinda a big deal! they have however come over to immediately fix our:
~lights (it was 10 am when we called and they were here at 10:15... it's day time!)
~door (this was an issue because it wouldn't shut ("what do you mean it doesn't shut, have you tried to shut it?"... they think 208 is dumb)
~shelving issue. it was RATHER LATE but the guy who brought it was nice

4. Dr. Cann and his WONDERFUL quizzes. he seems to know what days i didn't read! because i read EVERYDAY except the few and that's when he gives the pop quiz that asks for the exact term.... humm thanks a lot robo-spice! (just made that name for him right now!)

3. The roommate and toilet paper issue. So first off my roommates love to shop, but hate to buy toilet paper! i don't understand. so we go a full day with out any every time we run out... unless its my turn! it is beyond me why these girls do not see that we only have one roll left and it is their turn to buy. ALSO another peeve that goes with this is that when they use the last square, they don't replace it, and we keep the toilet paper around the little wall thing so then you are still wet cuz you just peed and have to somehow get a new roll of tp so you can wipe!!! it drives me nuts!

2. people who talk all through class... and not even about any subject that has to do with class... ALRIGHT GIRLS you obviously aren't learning anything and we don't care about your hair! the teacher doesn't take attendance, WHY ARE YOU HERE?!? LEAVE!

1. THE PHONE- so i think this is a Utah thing or something! but when the phone rings, they answer it (as does the rest of the world) but then have the conversation with the person on the other end with everyone else standing around and try to yell over is, or even worse, ask us to be quiet. Excuse me?!? we are actually having a conversation with someone who is ACTUALLY HERE! how about you excuse yourself into another room where it is quiet so you dont have to yell and we don't have to hear it (although some half conversations are rather amusing and can be interpreted in many ways!)! even worse is when they have the conversation in front of an audience, hang up, then say "oh gosh i cant believe... hennah hennah" so the audience is intrigued but the phone user "cant talk about it" WELL Heck we already know half of it, please do enlighten us, or leave the next time.

thanks for reading!

Who Used All the Black Crayon?

Guys, I am used to about 14 views each post. That's it (which is weird, because I post every blog link to my family's Facebook group and there are 40 of us in there... Thanks guys!). I was not expecting that many hits on one post, but I got it, and it has sparked a lot of conversation that I feel to be very productive. I have been so honored by the respect I have been given from those who’s opinions differ from mine, and the dialogue we have been able to have on the matter of race in today's society. Some of the best conversations have come from the, "But why?" question. But why is that offensive? On Facebook I shared this Vox link , so I won't get into that, but I do want to take some time to talk about taking offense. Life is a collection of experience. After one is written into our book, the next experience will be affected because of it. In kindergarten, I had a true Corrina, Corrina experience in class, when someone asked, "Who used all ...

PSA: You Didn't Win Halloween & Neither Did I

Last night my social media feed was filled with photos of friends attending their weekend parties in their Halloween costumes. There were a couple families and friend groups who were the cast of Napoleon Dynamite, a hilarious couple who went as their dogs, Curious George and the man in the Yellow Suite, and even Tess and Emily Tyler (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen from Billboard Dad). People are so creative when it comes to Halloween costumes! I am so not! But then I saw a couple’s costume I was so unbelievable uncomfortable with. alloween It was on Snapchat. Two people, one had painted himself brown to depict a character, a “hero” from a TV show we all watched in high school. Not just face painted, but arms, neck, chest. Then they added the chains. This, to that couple was a costume, but this also has a name, and that name is “blackface”. Minstrel shows started in the mid to late 19 th century, where white actors would paint their face to depict blacks on stage. The acto...

My Chiari Life: the Journey to a Doughnut

"I think it's time to order an MRI. I've tried everything I can think of and it isn't helping. I'm afraid it might be a tumor."  I've had headaches all my life. I remember when I was 8, I had my first migraine. I was so grouchy and just wanted it dark and quiet, and for my mom to to cook anything because the smells made it worse. They blamed it on allergies and diagnosed me with "chronic sinus infections". Age 8 was when I first became familiar with medication. My anxiety and depression started in 2010, but the anxiety didn't become crippling until the migraines did as well, just a year later- my senior year of college. If I wasn't having panic attacks in my classes of 300 then I was in my bedroom hiding from the sun because I was sure my brain might explode. Let's just say, senior year wasn't my best.  Since 2011, Christian had been begging me to ask for brain scans but I continued to have faith in my doctors. From my pediatri...
