Should you really be nice to people?

Answer: yes.
Does that always happen? No, see below.

Last year in my chemistry class we liked to play youtube videos for fun. One day a guy showed us this gem. The song lyrics "don't bite your friends" became an inside joke between Kara, Anna and I. We thought it was hilarious and sometimes when Kara was being mean to me I would remind her not to bite me.

This week I babysat my cousins Jayben and Lincoln. That meant we watched Nick Jr. a few times. During a commercial break that song played although I didn't get to watch it so Kara said this funny quote: "Sad day. Friends are for biting!"

On a related note Yo Gabba Gabba is really creepy! Each character has their own area except for the robot which is really sad. Anna and I felt bad for him. They had an art show and one had like junk which was art, so the other characters were awkward about it. They said anything can be art even if it doesn't look good. The black guy wears like gospel choir robes and has an orange furry hat?? Weird. And at the end of the show he turns them into toys again and puts them in a briefcase and takes them away. I thought that was creepy!!



So here's my story. People always think that I am nice and quiet and that sort of thing. I am for the most part, but around certain people not so much. So you may think I am mean but that might be because I am around someone who annoys me greatly.

One day I was next door with my friends. It was a Sunday and we were at the end of a game of Monopoly. I was about to leave when a bunch of people walked in to watch a movie afterwards.

I had brought a plate of cookies over and let my friends have some. When this group came in, a boy I didn't know asked for a cookie. I politely gave him one. I then got all my things to leave and soon walked to the door. When I was right in front of the door he asked for a second cookie.

I looked at his group of friends, of the rest of them, none had asked for a single cookie yet he was asking for a second and when I was leaving, no less. I did not want to give him one but because I am nice I gave him one. Although my method was a little... rude. Since I was across the room I threw the cookie, but at the wall behind him. It broke on the wall and fell to the ground.

The guy looked at me and gave me a very confused thanks. I said you're welcome before walking out the door. Because their door was still open, I heard everyone in the room start laughing as soon as I was out of the room.

Why I Should Never Stay up Late

A couple weeks ago my friends and I stayed up pretty late. I think I had been up since 7 AM and it was Saturday morning around 1:30 AM. Luckily it was a Saturday so I could sleep in.

The guys had to leave due to curfew so just the girls were left. That meant the fun had ended and we were tired anyways, so we all wanted to sleep.

We went around cleaning up the cups left on the floor, and putting pillows and blankets away. I went to put my cup in the dishwasher when I noticed a bottle of medicine. Apparently I did not read the entire bottle label, just the last half. My brain interpreted it as "mustache relief". What it really said was headache relief. I really don't know how I got to that point, other than I just read the -ache relief part and my brain put in the most used word ending in ache.

Yes, at BYU mustaches are a big issue. I have had many conversations about mustaches and how gross they are (THEY'RE NASTY GUYS). They guys think that they should grow mustaches to prove their manliness, because the honor code prevents beards (thank goodness because they're worse!). Thus it becomes a topic in everyday conversation.

I thought about that phrase. Who would need mustache relief? Then I thought about those poor girls either dating or married to guys with mustaches at BYU. I decided that if anyone ever came up with a "mustache relief" it would be quite popular at BYU.

After that I started hysterically laughing. I like to think that I have a really great sense of humor, and when I think something is ridiculously awesome (when standing), I tend to bend over and grab my knees. If it is even more hilarious than that I will literally fall on the ground laughing, and I will start crying.

At that point I grabbed my knees and cried, but only a little. Then I turned to my friends who really wondered what just went through my head. I told them the story and we all had a good laugh about it. Then they had to question my thinking, if I was insane or just tired. I was indeed tired, so they looked at me sadly and said, "Laura, just go to bed."

This is my blog

This was supposed to be an apartment blog, however I am now claiming it as my own. My life is not very interesting but I will put some funny things in here.

Like last semester at one point I left a banana on campus. Just in the Benson. I really hope someone found it and was really confused.

My ochem TA said this last year but I just put it on overheard at BYU.
"In case you haven't noticed, I've pretty much worn the same pair of pants every day this semester."

Last week I was sick with the stomach flu of some sort. I had a test and took it even though I was sick. In the middle of the test I started feeling weird. Right before the end I went to the bathroom and threw up. Then I had to tell the testing center employees to clean it up.
It went like this, "You're Laura right? Here's your test. Good luck!"
"I just threw up in the bathroom."
"You threw up? Uh, how bad was it?"
"Well, it was mostly contained in the sink and needs to be cleaned if that's what you're asking." I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter how bad it was, just it needs to be taken care of immediately but whatever.
"We will clean that up then. Good luck finishing...?"

There's another part to this whole stomach flu but I bet nobody wants to hear another story of me vomiting. Anyways, that's it.
