Picnik.com


My genius of a sister found this website. www.picnik.com. It's basically photo shop for dummies, which is good because I'm a dummy when it comes to stuff like that. Anyways, here's a picture of us second ward girls at Jessie's wedding Polaroid style. Check out the site! : )

likert , guttman anyone?

Oh college! Here's the thing. I like learning things that I'm interested in. For the most part, sociology has been just that. Learning about poverty, human behavior, patterns in society, etc all spark my interest. Social research however, does not. I guess I'm the type of person that likes to learn from other's findings, not find my own. I have a test in my social research class tomorrow, and my brain is going to explode from the boringness the topic. Surveys, graphs, statistics, models, control groups, blah blah blah.... This is one of those classes that would be useful if I were more academically adventurous to pursue a masters, and actually conduct research, but for now it's just another thing to check off to get that 'oh so distant' bachelors degree. In my 14 1/2 years of formal education I've become a master at jumping through hoops. This, along with my evil art history class of fall '07, may be the trickiest hoops yet.

Conformity=Blogging.

With most of our families and friends creating and loving blogs, we decided (well I decided and am hoping Josh is on board) to start one of our own! I'll be honest and admit that I'm a little nervous for the blogging world for a few reasons. The main reason why I'm reluctant to start a blog is because I have no idea what to write on this thing! Don't get me wrong, I enjoy writing in my journal and all, but what am I going to say that will really interest anyone? I feel like it's normal if you lead some exciting life, or have kids, but I don't! I don't want to be cheesy, or gushy, and I'm afraid I'm not witty enough to entertain people. I'll give it a shot, and if it's a total nose dive I'll resort by going back to facebook where you don't really have to share anything. You just post a few pictures and tell people how adorable they are in theirs! :) For now though, I'm giving blogspot a shot!
