Breaking up sucks. Yes really sucks. I was with my boyfriend for about 4 ½ years, I seriously thought we were going to get married and then one day he just dumped me. It was a sweet and heartfelt dump but still, it was a dump. For the next couple days I searched my brains to figure out what I did wrong. I should have seen it coming, we had stopped hanging out as much as we used to… but a lot of those times were because I wanted to go to yoga. (Namaste!) Anyways I finally decided that it was his loss. (Yes I am that egotistical.) So, after much deliberation I decided that I need to pick myself up and get back on that horse. (I’m not a gymnast Mauri…) It’s really scary though, the whole meeting new people thing. My mom told me to go and sit in the
So then, here’s the worst one yet, my mom told me to go ‘ward shopping’ on Sunday. Ward Shopping?!?!? Did you hear me?? Apparently this is where I go around and ‘visit’ a lot of different wards on Sunday and then decide where I want to have my records transferred to. Do people actually do this? If you or anyone you know has ever actually done this please please please let me know!!!
Okay so then my mom decided to point out many other things that I need to do to start attracting members of the opposite sex. Apparently showering more then twice a week is a must. Dang it. And make up every day?? Really what are they asking the girls to do these days!!! And then there’s this whole thing called brushing your teeth… haha just kidding!! I do that at least 4 times a week. Hhehe. Deodorant, perfume, jewelry, teeth whitening, hair curling, high heels, fake nails, pedicures… I think I’m going to go insane!!!
Oh and on this enlightening note, I am sitting here eating a chicken bowl from Hogi Yogi which WAS NOT bought from the Alpine Hogi Yogi. Bad bad idea. The chicken happens to still have A LOT of fat on it. And I know for a fact that at the Alpine Hogi Yogi they cut the fat off. So we can all thank the hard workers at the Alpine Hogi Yogi for their diligent effort in keeping the population of Alpine skinny…. (that and their countless hours getting tummy tucks and liposuction.)
I would like to apologize to all of those pseudo skinny people in Alpine who were offended by this post. I would also like to apologize to Jason Paul Mower – if he reads this post – about the flippant manner in which I wrote about our break up :-) You know how I feel… :-)

Ward shopping = bad idea.
General hygiene = good idea.
Make up = bad idea...don't get sucked in.
I'm glad our movie/late evening plans cancelled so I could come home and read your blog!! Keep up the random thoughts. I actually think "ward shopping" has been around for a LONG time. I will check ours for you!
Wow! if you brushed your teeth, showered, put on makeup, did your hair, etc etc when would have time to have a life, go ward-hopping, BYU or the Mall (now there's a good idea)???
I agree with Nalton. Ward shopping? No. So i just got your comment on my page, and I think i need to update my blog more often... I might actually do my culture project on blogging, so I'd better get down to business! And, just so you know, you will be one of my key informants!
Living at home really sucks for meeting new people, and I as someone who needs to meet new people, trying to meet people is hard. Ward shopping doesn't work unless you have a good friend already in the ward.
Because it's so hard to meet people especially since most of it is instantly based on the physical and you never really know the personalities, I've decided on tuesday at UVSC to hold up a sign about myself and see if I get any takers. Probably won't get any, but it's hard to find people all the other ways. One way I like doing it when I get really bored is blog hopping, but that also rarely works, just follow from one blog to another through people's comments. :)
Oh my goodness :) I want to stand at UVSC and hold a sign! Yay!!! Can I stand next to you! I will hold the "Eternal Companion Wanted" sign that my lovely Noel made for me!
