So I am in my English 150 class right now (yes I am a junior in a freshman class) bored out of my mind and not wanting to write my second essay due this week. In my state of boredom I decided that I should start a blog... to practice my English skills of course. Actually I realized that the main thing I do on Facebook is change my status so maybe I should just update people on my life in something longer than a sentence. Ha ha.
Ok, so for my first official rant...
I would just like to say that I hate being 21. I was really excited to turn 21 but now that I am 21 I wish I could go back to being 20. In fact, the other day I was talking to a girl (who I know is a freshman) and I was actually embarrased about telling her my age. Never thought that would happen... And I am not completely sure why I was embarassed. Ok, actually I think it is partly the BYU bubble that is making me feel this way and partly my freshman year roommates. 21 anywhere else is young... 21 here seems ancient! I am so not looking forward to Fall semester when my guy friends are going to start dating girls my little sisters age... Then there are my freshman roommates (who I LOVE dearly): they all just seem to have it sooo together. Two are married, (one with a baby on the way) and the other two are just about to go on missions. What am I doing??? Pretty much nothing, not even dating or trying to date or wanting to go on a mission. Now see, if I could pretend that I was 19, that would be great, then I would be allowed to have no idea what is going on with my life.
So there you are... my rant... yeah it is probably stupid and very BYU of me. But hey this is pretty much just for me and I am sure no one else is going to read this.

Kenna darling, you are my favorite. I love you and I think you are a very worth-while person :). I look forward to reading more blog stuff from you. :)
I admit, I have a huge problem with BYU and mormon culture. It's asinine. You aren't old, you aren't lost, you are living life. Who gives a damn if you aren't following what 'byu culture' deems appropriate. I'm 23, married, but unable to have children. To some I am a failure, not able to do the one important thing us girls can do...NOT. You hang in there girl, because you are doing what is best for you. So you aren't dating, meh, tell them to all kiss off into the air or something. (God bless the Violent Femmes) You keep this blog up kiddo. I will check up on you and you can always read my blog too. It might make you laugh. :)
