Merry Christmas!

I am in St. George, three days in to my blissful Christmas break. I forgot my camera, although my lovely roomie Audrey is going to bring it to me, but until then, I can't post any pictures.... sorry y'all!
But there is snow on the ground in St. George which hasn't happened in ages! Its very exciting, but a little crusty and thin :) I love St. George!
I have done a lot of baking since I have been home; I have personally made at least 8 dozen cookies. We are done baking all the sugar cookies and are going to start the frosting process tomorrow.
To combat the fat that is trying to stick itself to my body, I worked out extra hard to day. . . and had to go to the chiropractor as a result. Yeah, he wants to see me back on Wedensday. I have no idea how I did this.
I am going to bed early tonight because I am getting up at 7:30 a.m. to get my hair colored. That is earlier than I have gotten up in like two weeks! The lengths girls go to for their hair! I mean to think that two sane women are waking up at that hour to smell chemicals and read gossip magazines for two hours is a little crazy. But that's what we do. I want these ugly britney spears wannabe roots gone before all the pictures are taken for Christmas! Seriously. I know my appointment is soon, but I still don't know what to do with my hair. To some people, this is a big decision. To others, they don't think about it because they do the same thing every single time. To me, I show up, tell Tami what is bothering me about my hair, and say "surprise me". I am leaning toward brown. Or red. Or anything that is less like my current straw yellow blonde.
Pictures to be posted later on with the results.
Peace out :D

Back in business baby!

I got my computer back on Monday of this week! I am very happy; I will no longer have to endure withdrawls. I got Microsoft Office from a friend and installed it last night, and downloaded skype firefox, and converters etc. so I am back in business baby! Woohoo!
The computer wizards on campus couldn't get anything off my hard drive, so all of the pictures that I've ever taken, and all the music I previously had on my computer is gone for sure. They gave me my old, broken hard drive back though, in this little plastic baggie, which was pretty funny because (a.) I don't want a souvenir because I am trying to forget this ever happened, and (b.) what am I supposed to do with it? Maybe I can be creative and use it in my next art project. I will let you all know.
But there are two morals to this story: (1) Buy an external hard drive and put everything important on it as a back up. Don't let this happen to you! (2) Send me any pictures that you have of me so that the past three years of my life don't fall into an undocumented black-hole. I need proof that I have been doing something with my life besides studying and working!
