The Awkwardness of Not Being a Parent

I have been to two baby showers in my entire existence. One was when I was in high school and I had two young women's leaders who were due about a week apart. That baby shower really was like a party to me because the young women had been invited so I just sat at the "young peoples" table and talked about clearly not babies. I was completely oblivious to any other conversation that could have been going on. Which is why I was completely unprepared for what was to come. The second baby shower I've gone to was last week, and it was for my beautiful "sister-in-law". Do you know what people talk about at baby showers?!? Not fun things people. Not fun things. I am terrified to have children now. I don't want to go through labor. It sounds terrifying and horrible and disgusting. And then there are repercussions for months afterwards. Horrible, horrible repercussions. Why does anyone want to do this? Why can't men have babies? I'd much rather they do it than me. Just sayin'. The only good I found in this is that women do do this. And then they do it again. And again. And sometimes again. So, there must be something pretty amazing about having a baby that makes all that misery okay to deal with. I'm not saying I'd like to jump on the pregnancy band wagon anytime soon but I am really glad to have family and friends who have gone before me to show me that even though they pretend it's horrible it is still a pretty amazing thing. And I can't wait to meet my little nephew or niece.

Living is a Side Effect of Death

Should I be doing my homework? Yes. But if I was always doing my homework when I was supposed to be you would never read anything on here ever. Life is crazy friends! I feel like I am moving in fast forward and I am not sure how I like it yet. It's already the middle of October! Didn't this month just start? I have too much to do and too little time to do it in. I could really use that time machine now, for purposes other than becoming a pregnant teenager (long story-some of you will get it).
In other news I have recently discovered a few things about myself that I was unaware of until this last week or so:
1. I am terrified of being an astronaut. (If you haven't seen the movie gravity it's really good).
2. I am a bit of a hypochondriac and I believe doctors are the closest thing to angels you could possibly get. This explains why my mom always waited days after I told her I needed to see a doctor before she took me.
3. I'm slightly night blind. It's cool, I haven't died yet so I should be fine. My grandma is night blind and she's been driving at night for years now. If she can do it then so can I.
4. I tried a plum for the first time. Well, it was a dried plum but it still counts. (This isn't something new I discovered about myself I just wanted you to know).
Life is cRaZy!! I have two assignments due by the end of today another due tomorrow and a test due Wednesday. I looooove school soooooooo much. Not to mention I really need to get caught up on a bunch of stuff before the end of this month or I'm going to hate my life. More than I currently do.
Au Revoir peeps! (I think that means good bye but I'm not sure because I don't speak French).

Mount Doom

When my bedroom starts to look like Mount Doom you know it's been a stressful few weeks. It's getting pretty bad. I can barely get into my closet anymore. But what fun would it be to clean it up?
For your viewing pleasures:
