summer...

So...it has been a while. sorry :( oooops so here are some tidbits I feel like sharing

1. So on our car ride home I told my parents that my room mate's grandparents own a steak farm...they won't ever let me forget that and the image they get of someone planting steaks in the ground...

2.Someone I know told me my face book status' always seem so real. that made me smile.  And it suddenly made sense why someone I only kind of knew kept liking my status'.

3.A random guy at a church thing complemented my white calves. not only is that weird but I feel awkward that some dude is looking at my legs.

4. I sneezed so loud at one point it sounded like a bomb.  And the whole chapel jumped in their seats. ooops. And yes rocklin 6th ward the sneezer was ME. I confess :)

5.Having no job while being home has made me very bored..so bored I enjoyed weeding the garden. I think something is wrong with me.  I also thoroughly enjoyed washing my car yesterday...

6.My brother and I have decided that there must be toilet bandits running Amuck in town..because someone confronted me about a toilet they found on their lawn? WEIRD.  I must wonder where the toilet came from?  So there must be toilet bandits coming at stealing toilets straight out of your house! hopefully someone isn't on them when it happens...nasteh

7. I got 2nd degree burns on my thumb from making mac and cheese while baby sitting...mean while the kids I was baby sitting were still demanding for lunch.  Fun stuff

8. My mom who I INHERITED my stark white skin from has decided my skin is too white for me to go out in public...so to get her to stop riding me i got this weird skin lotion that gradually makes your skin look tan that she claimed worked?  all I got from THAT was the left side of my right calf looking orange. thanks mom.  I preferred my vampire look.  It helps me to match...snow ;)

so that is my summer :) enjoy the sun, ignore the crazy blond chick going insane with nothing to do and PEACE

my life is...

so...it's been a while.  oops.  so for starters a few weeks ago tHE LAST HARRY POTTER MOVIE CAME OUT!
personally...I think it would be cool if the movie came out today..on july 31st because it is Harry's 31st birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARRY!)  but today is a sunday and movies just do not come out on sundays. laaaaaaaaame.  The movie however was quite AMAZING! I saw the midnight showing OF COURSE...all by my loesome even becuase no one would go with me.  but it was worth it.  I was cheering, laughing, and drooling over the movie.  it was amazing.  of course it was diffrent then book...but i went in there telling myself i would not compare them too much so instead of coming out unhappy I came our very happy!

a week after HP came out was finals. laaaaame.  finals suck.  yet i guess i dominated at them or something becuase I have a pretty good GPA now.  which is always nice.  and very nice I am now done going to child lit class because that class room is a giant ICE BOX!  i felt so weird carrying a sweatshirt to class with me everytime...but i always wore it in there.  i wore it in my history class too i guess...but i didnt mind so much because it was interesting and not a total snore so worth the frozen body. sorta.

after finals i learned that river tubing + robyn=not so good.  i dont know why but even thought i kept being told how to steer the dang thing i just couldnt figure it out!  as soon as we hit rapids...faster than you could say "water" i was far behind the group and dumped out of my ttube over a rock and fighting with the current so i could get back in my tube! dosent that sound fun?  welcome to the world of robyn


now:HOME FREE! filled with me trying to force green beans down my brothers throat while he shouts *while his mouth is full mind you* "i am not a garbage disposal!" and me just chillin'..or should i say bakin in cali?  i would say bake. i forgot how HAWT it gets here. oh mama!

so that is allll you missed!  why rapids are rude and harmful, why harry potter rocks and why i am the weird college student who carries a sweatshirt around in the middle of july.
PEACE SUMMA fOLKS

super sneeze

so, it is llergy season which means what? ROBYN SNEEZES A TON! And, if you know me (and i have no clue why any complete stranger would bother to read my blog) you would know I sneeze SUPER loud.  Here is what has happened thanks to my sneeze over the past month:
1. My sneeze has echoed around my bedroom on numerous occasions and made my bed make a weird ringing noise
2. My history teacher literally took a step back from shock, the whole class sat silence stunned s my sneeze echoed around the room
3. I have caused everyone in a sunday school class to look at me funny and stop talking mid sentence
4. I have efficiently scared my self because of my sneezes
5. this didn't happen this month, but last fall the bishop said "bless you" over the pulpit.

Aren't my sneezes special?  More like obnoxiously loud but still

PS: I THINK I MIGHT HAVE GOT A TAN! this is super exciting since i have stark white skin and the last time I was in a bathing suit people were calling me dracula

On an unusually serious note:  Do you ever feel like you have some greater purpose in life?  Like you are not living up to your potential and one day in life you are going to make a big differance?  Like your potential is just waiting to bloom?  Because I have felt that way every day of my life and am just waiting for that feeling to go away and for me to realize what it is that I have felt my whole life I am building up to.  Because the tension is nauseating and I would like to be done with it.  end of story.

on my usual less serious note:  It was brough to my attention today that my brief opinion on movies/ books is "funny"?  I am not so sure but I feel like sharing them.

The voyage of the Dawn treader -movie vs. book:  The movie added an element of the green mist so that the climax is actually there and made a story I already loved more interesting in a style so much in the fashion of C.S. Lewis I had to rack my brain to remember it was not in the book.  Whereas in the book there are a bunch of cool short stories, then suddenly they are at the end of the world and aslan is a lamb.  woo buddy great climax.

Romeo and Juliet: I realize that this play is a classic by the genius Shakesphere.  I get it, but who can DENY how CHEESEY the play is? "I just met you but I cant live without you?"  is just lame.  i mean they met each other just a few days before, but fall in love and kill themselves over each others alleged or real deaths because they CANT LIVE without each other? talk about the first soap opera this world has known of. super cheese.  end of story.

Post Grad: i just watched it with my room mate.  she did not find it funny while i was laughing histerically.  a crazy family complete with a woman trying out coffins before she dies, a boy who licks other people and a coffin made into a derby car?  it makes my nutso family seem normal.  

hmm another movie i rant on a lot...nacho libre: a fat man in spandex? no thank you.  it's gross.  end of story.

so that would be the end of the late night robyn movie rants. lol.  sorry if i offended any one. especially with romeo and juliet.

So...a week ago was my 19th birthday.  I don't really feel any older or wiser.  Maybe it's because it's a hump year birthday.  Between to bigger birthdays.  I am not really sure.  What I am sure is I have never gotten so many packages in the mail before.  Note to self: if there is any time to be depressed it is right before your birthday.  Why?  BECAUSE EVERYONE BOOSTS YOUR EGO! not that i was depressed...i just had that        
random thought.  along with the thought neon socks are super cool and i now have enough sugar to feed an army.
DEAR WORLD: just because I am skinny does NOT mean i can eat as much sugar as i please.  so i would like it if you would stop tempting me by giving it to me all the time. 

wind is lovely.  the other day I was walking around campus and the wind was rippling through my hair perfectly.  I felt like I was in a shampoo commercial.  I have always wanted to be in a shampoo commercial :)  yay for my imaginary ten mins of fame.

SO THATS ALL!  this is what happens when I am tired and feel lame for doing nothing on my Friday night.  Aren't I cool?  hahah how about NOT.
PEACE

Random thoughts

Ever since memorial day weekend my beloved room mates have been acting like old farts.  They each have both in been in bed by 10:40 at the latest every night.  They need walkers. seriously.  Somehow going home aged them ;)

It is june an all around the west coast it is COLD!  we had nice weather yesterday but it quickly retreated like a dog with it's tail between its legs.  REMIND ME WHY HIPPIES THINK THERE IS SUCH THING AS GLOBAL WARMING?  i mean seriously.  Al Gore must be feeling really stupid right now.  And please don't just pick up the global cooling theory right now becuase i wish the hippies would stop being so fickle. yes we should stop polluting but no pollution is not why the weather is bi poloar.  it is becuase the weather is like a teen ager.  it is moody and cant decide what it is feeling.  *END OF ROBYN'S RANT ON WEATHER/GLOBAL WARMING*

 Is it just me or is the IDEA of funerals more exciting than weddings?  They have a dead guy in a coffin where people weep over then and claim how awesome they were.  There is food and a color theme!(black)  Becuase my family thinks it's weird that I have been planning my funeral for the past 2 years instead of a wedding(my dad claims that's what girls my age should be planning).  Weddings are so cliche'!  You have the wedding colors, a cake you shove in someones face and some lame music no one dances to while people admire the several hundred dollar ress the bride is wearing she will never wear again.  Funerals are interesting becuase of the CORPSE element.  And the fact it is your last party above ground.  even if you are just the dead center piece.   My dad thinks I should join the two and marry a corpse.  There was already a movie called the corpse bride,  i don't think my life shoul be called the corpse groom.  thats all i have to say about that.

I swear my room mates are out to get me an they don't even know it.  One of them burnt my kitchen towel beyond use, and the other one broke one of my kitchen plates.  I love them dearly but I seriously wonder WHAT IS NEXT?  My shoes? ( I hope not.  I love my shoes.  Theysa cute)

AND THAT END MY RANDOM THOUGHTS/RANTS!  I hope I didn't offend anyone...
p.s.:IF YOU THINK A DINO PACK IS COOLER THAN A WOLF PACK RAWR AT ME!

only me...

So guess what i did last week? I STARTED A FIRE IN MY APARTMENT!  now before you call the fireman to come and keep me away from fire for the rest of my life and hide all matches from my possesion you MIGHT want to hear what happened.

My apartment segments up dinner duty each week.  I always cook dinner for all three of us on wednesday.  So there I was making spaghetti(but with chicken instead of beef) and my noodles were too long to fit in the pan!
so there i was snapping the noodles in half right by my stove (which is electric by the way. we are not allowed to have open flames in our apartment) and little peices kept flying everywhere!
well JUST MY LUCK apparently one of the noodles flew under the pot right by the already hot burner.  Within five minutes a flame started up UNDER MY PAN!
Which if you think about it, that is completely IRONIC that i had a unwanted flame underneath my pot on a stove!  So there I was worried what to do about a flame that was starting to slowly get larger and I was constantly flickering my eyes to our fire extinguisher when it extinguished on its OWN! TALK ABOUT TAKING AWAY THE EXCITEMENT IN MY LIFE!  So that is the story of how i started a fire in my apartment.  Aren't I oh so reckless?


random note: in my English class we always have a "news" portion before our teacher starts well..teaching.  I am always soooooo tempted to raise my hand ans shout " I'M ENGAGED!" then i would get a bunch of congratulations and then yell " PSYCH!" hahahahahahahahaha! so tempting.  but i am afraid my whole class would jump me...


 this is what i spend my weekends doing :D

personality strengths!

so we had to take a personality quiz for my leisure class and I felt like sharing my "top five strengths".  Mainly becuase I felt like posting a blog but had no idea what to write.  SO I AM SHARING THIS!  Because I am cool like that

1. Capacity to love and be loved
2.Humor and playfulness
3. Kindness and generosity
4. Spirituality and faith
5. Origionality and creativity


TAH DAH! it's kind of spot on.  My number 6 strength was zest.  Which is a large part of me too.  Another intersting thing I have learned from that class is that laughter is supposed to aid with your digestion.  I feel cheated.  Because I laugh a lot.  One other thing: on average children laugh 400 times a day and adults laugh 14 times a day.  LETS CHANGE THAT AND LAUGH FIFTEEN TIMES A DAY! hahahahahaha. just kidding. or am I?  This is also proof i read my homework assignments.  Just sayin.  Now I am going to go sunbathe on the grass outside my apt.  Seriously.
PEACE
