Today I decided it was time to do some deep cleaning. A while back (when Mr. Amazing came into my life) Shelby and I decided there were some things that we had that needed to be out of sight and definately out of mind. We figured the best (and most fun) way to dispose of the items was to burn them. Well we are a couple of busy girls and on our list of things to do, burning love letters and such was far from the top. So I decided today to stop procrastinating and finally get rid of the extra clutter lying around in my room. I through everything out. I am a pack rat and I had kept notes, letters, pictures, corsages, pictures, jewelry, homecoming questions, journals, gifts, movie tickets, and anything else you could think of. It is all currently sitting outside my house in the trash can and it will be taken to the dump promptly. How exciting. Yes it was a part of my past, but just because I don't have reminders doesn't mean I'll forget a 2 year chunk of my life. However, I find that chunk a large waste of time (except for a few events that brought me to where I am now) and I don't need keepsakes to hold on to the memories that truly matter. The only thing I even considered keeping was the necklace (who knows, maybe it was worth some money) but I quickly remebered it was purchased from K-mart and no pawn shop in their right mind would take it. Now that the old is out I feel like I have even more space to bring in the new. It's funny how life changes though. I looked through my journals one last time before tossing them to try and scavenge the smallest bit of advice I could learn from. Basically I realized that the following:
God only wants the best for us. He only wants us to be happy. If we're not truly happy with something it's probably not the right thing for us.
The greatest things come without force. Relationships take work, but if your the only working all your doing is forcing a round peg in a square hole, and even kindergardners know that won't work.
Life changes. What you once thought was going to be your life can change in an instant.
Learn from the past.
Your past brings you to your future. Without my past I never would've met Mr. Amazing...funny how things seem to get worse before they get better, but once they do they're AMAZING!!

Ok So Here's The Deal
So I haven't blogged in a while. I haven't really had a whole lot of time to even get on the internet. Here's what's been going on.
I'm going to start with today because right now I'm drawing a blank and I can't think of anything else that's going on. So today I get up and I'm dead tired! Like seriously. Lately I can tell I'm really tired by this new little thing my body does where when I open my eyes it feels like there are razor blades on the inside of my eyelids. Obviously not fun. Sooo I went back to sleep :) Anyways when I finally got up and everything I headed on my merry little way to school. I always sorta time myslef so that I know if I'm giong to be late or not. So I'm almost there and I look down at the clock and it's 10 to 11 but it usually takes me at least 15 minutes to park my car in BFE and walk to class. So I started freaking out because my teacher is a crazy old lady and she hates when your late and if you are she yells at you in front of the whole class (all 295 students(not lying(How many parenthesis can you get in a sentence))) ANYWAYS! Well after I parked I sat there in my car for a sec and couldn't for the life of me remember what time my class started..was it 11, 11:15, 11:30...IDK. So I walked to my class a whole 30 minutes early. Shnikees. Luckily I had some Bio homework to do so it wasn't to bad. After that I went to class and decided to color instead of paying attention. Well doodle not color. But I'm a weird doodler. I doodle fonts. I have lots of them. It's fun. So I doodled this little number.
Cute right. I know :) Anways, class was over and I ran to my car to move it so I wouldn't have to walk all the way across campus when I got done with my lab. After moving it I sat and ate my leftovers from breakfast (a hostess stroudel, heath bar, and a watered down Dr. Pepper) Then I went to class and luckily it didn't take to long. When I got out of class I had just enough time to grab a quick bite and run to my lifeguarding class. All I wanted was a chicken quesadilla with extra jalepeno sauce and a Mt. Dew. I drove around for an hour looking for a taco bell. When it was apperent that there wasn't one anywhere to be found I decided I would stop at the closest fast food restuarant...but guess what! Apparently people down in the ghetto don't eat. However I did find this thing called "TENT CITY" WTF. Did you know we had such a thing. We do. It's a bunch of hobos who pitch tents on a street and live there. So that was interesting. I was so pissed about the whole taco bell thing, so I come into class and everyone can tell I'm mad. So I shared my tragic story and everyone felt so bad that someone gave me a bag of lays. HOW SWEET! My day totally improved untill 5 minutes later when my instructor walked in with a taco bell cup in his hand. WTF. So ya. The rest of the class went well except for one thing. Our test is tomorrow so we were practicing for it. Well I was really nervous so I walked up with another lifeguard. I looked at my teacher and asked if I could be the secondary rescuer (which means the other person has to get in and make the rescue..all the secondary does is yell "Get out of the way!") My gay face instructor made me the one that has to get in the water! UGH! GAYGAYGAY. So I spotted my (fake) drowning person and jumped in and swam out. I get half way out there and realize they picked THE HEAVIEST AND BIGGEST DUDE to fake drown! And I'm one of the smallest!!! OMG! But I saved him. Yay me. After class I came home and jumped in the shower. What an event. Seriously. My hair has been really dried out from the pool. So I decided to use a trick I read about in Seventeen. Blast Seventeen...I think they just put advice in there so they can laugh to themselves about all the stupid girls who try them. Anyways. The trick is to put olive oil in your hair. So I ran to the kitchen to get the oil and covered my head in it. It was annoying but it came out. On to the next step. After I got the oil out and everything I went to shave. As I'm shaving my legs I'm feeling to make sure I didn't miss anything and I realize that my razor isn't really doing anything! So I try rinsing it out and realize the oil mixed with the little hair that's in there is clogging the razor. I tried everything to unclog it and nothing worked!!!! I had to throw out my razor and give up. However now part of one of my legs is kinda sorta shaved and everything else isn't. I swear. Here's some advice..1. Don't put oil anywhere near your body. and 2. Don't listen to anything Seventeen magazine has to say.

Improvements
The past few weeks I feel like I have making some huge improvements in my life. They're really more like changes but still. This week I started a lifeguarding class so that I can go find a better job and make tons of money. What will I use that money for you ask? Well I will be saving to buy a car (yes my very own car!) and to have money for when I leave for Utah. You heard right..I'm leaving for Utah soon, St. George to be exact. This week I recieved my acceptance letter to Dixie! I also recieved a scholarship! Awesome Possum! I'm also getting my hair done this week!! I can't wait. I love changing my hair. It's the easiest thing to change about your appearance and it's the probably the most temporary thing you can change about yourself. So ya! I will keep you updated on everythig!!! WOO HOO!

This is a good post..You know you wanna read it!!! (and Comment!!)
I have lots and lots of stories for this post!!! Most of them will probably bore you but who knows maybe you'll get a few giggles out of it.
So first of all, a few months ago I was ironing a skirt when something tragic happened. You see I don't have an ironing board in my room so when I iron I have to do it on my bed. Well anyways I was ironing away when I smelled something burning. When I lefted up the iron I found a huge burn mark on my bed sheets. For some reason I thought if I washed the sheets the mark would go away but alas it did not. So for the past few months I've had to look at my ugly charred sheets that have a burn mark resembling a skid mark. Do you know what a skid mark is. In case you have been living in a box your whole life I will inform you. A skid mark is something you get in your undies when you suck at whiping. They are most commonly found in my dad's briefs. Bahaha you probly didn't need to know that but anyways...so last night I was at Walmart with Mr. Amazing and found some new sheets. They were on sale for a really cheap price and they were dark green. Not only would they match the comforter I have now but if I should ever leave the iron on my bed again it won't leave a mark. So I skipped all the way up to the register excited about my new sheets. I reached in my purse to pull out my wallet and couldn't find it! Earlier last night I had been paying for something online and forgot to return my wallet to its happy little home known as my purse. Luckily I had Mr. Amazing with me and he ran to the rescue to grab his wallet. He threw me the wallet and my (not-so) excellent hand-eye coordination skills kicked in and I caught the wallet easy peasy. The older couple in front of my looked in awe an asked if I played ball. Well of course I do!! (Just not with my hands) I chuckled and informed them that I had absolutely no hand-eye coordination but they persisted by telling me I should take it up. When the turned around I rolled my eyes..PSSHHHHH SOCCER IS BOMB WHY WOULD I WANT TO PLAY ANYTHING ELSE!?!?! Anyways...
This morning I woke up ridiculously early because I'm still carpooling with my family due to Lackofcaritis! (That's the terribly awful case of not having a car for a week) When I got home I decided school was for losers and I would stay home. Oh stop rolling your eyes. I only had one class today and I have an A++++ in there so there. Anyways I stayed home and did laundry and junk so it wasn't that exciting. Then I headed off to work. Oh the joys of work. Ugh. I was talking to a co-worker when she informed me that another co-worker (let's just call him Stu) wasn't talking to her because she called Stu a FLOOZY! HAHAHA I could not stop laughing because it is so true..Stu is a floozy in dude form. Later Stu came up to me to tell me about his new nickname when I started laughing. He got all pissy and asked why it was so funny. I said..Stu you are such a floozy! Stu gasped in shock and said (direct quote) "I'm not a floozy!! I've only kissed 13 girls in one year!!!" Oh my heck Stu that totally qualifies as being a floozy. It took me 4 years to get to my number of 13!! He tied my in just one. What the heck. But this totally proved my point that Stu is a giant floozy.
After that I was given the one bit of power I have at DI: The Store Phone. This is the phone that all the annoying customers call to ask stupid questions like "Do you have refrigeraters. Not regular ones, just tiny ones." So everytime I get the store phone it stays silent for hours without one phone call. Then I decided its safe to run to the bathroom. I'm not kidding you every time I go to the bathroom the phone rings. I hate answering the phone in the bathroom because there's an echo and EVERYONE knows your in the bathroom talking on the phone. So anyways, today I went to the bathroom and on my way there I saw this sign saying ***$25 reward for whoever catches and gets rid of the cat hiding in production*** I pretty much disregarded the sign because my urge to piddle was greater than the desire FOR A WHOLE $25!!! Well anyways I'm sitting in the stall outsmarting the phone (sitting in the stall but not actually going so when the phone rings I can make a quick exit and then go back to finishing my bathroom buisiness). Of course the phone rings so I quickly exited and answered the phone.
Me: Thank you for calling Deserest Industries, this is Alix, How may I help you?
Caller: Yes what time do you close?
Me: 9 o clock ma'am.
Caller: Ok I'm just calling to confirm that the cat trap Tabitha ordered will be here tonight.
END OF CALL
K by now most people know that due to my mom's insane love for cats I'm not a big fan..BUT COME ON! Tabitha you are a whore. You ordered a cat trap! That sounds horrible. Seriously think of all the traps possible..none of them end great for the animal..mouse traps, rat traps, ant traps, bear traps!!! My word. And DI is supposed to be a place of church goers. I'm ashamed to be associated with a place that would turn to cat traps! Plus why would you post reward signs if your just gonna use a cat trap!
In other news I get my car back tomorrow! Totally exciting. Also I mailed in my tax forms and my stuff for Dixie so I should get money and hopefully an acceptance letter very soon! Mr. Amazing needs to send in his stuff otherwise the 2 of us will not be going anywhere! So sad.
