One thig is certain; coming home from vacation is never fun.
I just got back from vacationing in Mexico. I love that place. It is a 15 hour drive from Provo but SO worth the drive. I spent 5 days relaxing, playing in the pool and the beach and soaking up the sun. What could be better? I just don't know. Well if you haven't already check out the photos on fb do, and you can see it all. I am new to this blogging thing so I haven't even tried to figure out how to put pics on here. Anywho, Mexico was fantastic and I did NOT want it to be over. I didn't want to have to come back. Can't a girl just stay in paradise forever?...
Life as of now isn't too exciting. School is well... school. I have never liked it. I did really bad on my last biology test, which is a bummer. I really don't want to retake the class so I'm going to have to study more. Ugh. I felt like I studied just as much on the first test as I did on the second. I did really well on the first test so I felt like I would do ok. But no. All my other classes I though would be ok but I just don't enjoy them. The only class I remotely like is my Children's Lit class. But that class is very demanding. So all in all, school... not my thing but I'm going to keep doing it anyway.
Work. Oh work. I hate work. Well I like working but I don't like my job. Its boring, tedious, repetitious, unfulfilling and full of drama. If you know me at all you know that I don't do drama. And it's not even my drama at work. All my co workers come to me and complain about everyone else in the office. I don't care, just get over it. So I'm going to start looking for a new job. I've seen a few things but it would be a cut in pay so thats not going to happen. I'm barely making it as is.
Social life. Not so great. In my "old age" (haha) I've become a boring person. I hardly have fun anymore and when I try to have fun I just become an awkward person. I feel like all of my social skills have gone out the window. Well I don't know if I had any to begin with. haha. I have a lot of friends up here but not a lot of close friends. Its been a struggle for me to make new friends so I just hang out with people from Cedar and my roomates. Luckily I have awesome roomates or I'd probably be a hermit.
Well that's life as of late. Not too much to come home to after a fun vacation. Hopefully things will start to get better soon.

17 Secrets
This past week we had a fun lesson in my Institute class. I'm taking Preparing for Celestial Marriage; Dating and Courtship. Thursday night we discussed what we think the opposite sex is looking for in a spouse. So anyway I just wanted to share this list of 17 secrets. It is about the male and female psychology. I thought it was interesting so here it is.
Male
1. Men seek out relationships that make them feel trusted and respected
2. Men love through sacrifice.
3. Good men are largely logical about their relationships and commitment. Thus they do not commit easily to things they have not invested in over a period of time.
4. Men ad driven to succeed, face challenges, compete and conquer.
5. Men like women who like themselves
6. Men love to be heroes.
7. Men like being appreciated.
8. Men like femininity.
9. Men like women who have opinions and assert their needs.
10. Good men pursue women who are approachable and appear to be available.
11. Good men want sex with a woman who feels good about having sex with them and will wait until marriage.
12. Men need to be needed
13. Men are repelled by criticism, nagging and whining.
14. A man experiences anxiety in every conversation a woman initiates until she tells him what she wants him to do.
15. Men bond through doing activities and talking about things more than they do through talking about people, problems, feelings, or ideas.
16. Good men adore women who give them love attention and affection.
17. Good men are often willing to talk openly and honestly when they fell it will help them or another person to do so.
Female
1. Women thrive when they feel safe and secure.
2. Women love through sacrifice. However, women often love and sacrifice in ways that are not good for the male psychology. Thus, a woman needs a man to communicate about his needs. Not only will a woman love him for communicating respectfully with her, but the more she sacrifices to meet his needs, the more deeply her love will grow.
3. Women read into men's behaviors, get excited, assume commitment, and then get hurt when he pulls away due to the added pressure.
4. Women are critical of their bodies and fear competition from other women,
5. Women are attracted to strength and confidence.
6. women are turned off by men who are too nice.
7. Women often fall in love with friends.
8. Women like to be pursued and to feel wanted.
9. Women enjoy touch, kissing, and affection but feel vulnerable and prone to shame after sexual contact.
10. Women want men who hold off sexually - it makes a woman feel respected and wanted rather than feeling like an object.
11. Women want immediate relationships but trust and value slow progressing relationships.
12. Women long to feel adored.
13. Women are repelled by moping, brooding, and the silent treatment.
14. Women worry. They need to know they are not alone in dealing with the problems of the relationship.
15. Women who don't trust and respect their men, fall out of love, especially if there is no communication.
16. Women like gifts, surprises, reasonable spontaneity, and excitement. The extra effort makes them feel special.
17. Women would rather have open and honest communication about misdeeds than to be protected from the truth.
Well there you have it.
