I had a roommate my freshman year, Stevie, who would check her horoscope daily. She would also wish on the clock when it hit 11:11 or she even went as far as 12:12 and 4:04. She just wanted more chances to make a wish. I would laugh at her and tell her she was crazy. I sometimes thought she really believed her horoscope and that her wishes would actually come true. Well, I have a secret confession. I now check my horoscope EVERYDAY!! It’s scary sometimes how right on it is. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I use my horoscope to guide my life or anything, but it is SO fun to see what it says. Sometimes it has really great words of wisdom, like yesterday it told me to serve others. Last week it said a lot about trusting others, being forgiving, and not being too emotional. Today it said something about going to my coworkers for advice…which I do often (because most of my co-workers are boys who are engaged or almost engaged, and they give the best dating advice)…but it was one of the lamer horoscopes. Another confession….I wish on 11:11, 12:12, 3:33 etc… but my favorite to wish on is 4:44. (4 is my lucky number). Actually, sometimes I don’t make a wish but I always notice when it is those times and I think about making a wish. I mean, that would just be silly to believe those wishes come true.
An update on my roommate Stevie: she now checks 3 different horoscopes every day. I guess it’s all about finding the right one. For example, I love the Yahoo horoscope. For me, Yahoo is the most accurate, but for Stevie, she needs 3 to be as accurate as possible.
Checking my horoscope is just part of my daily routine now. It’s fun and exciting…especially when it’s right on! I’m a Cancer…what are you? I found this great link that tells you how well you match up with people of other Zodiacs...like if you are considering dating someone, or married to someone, it tells you how you fit. Here's the link in case any one is interested (because I know you all are) http://www.eastrolog.com/horoscope-love-match/
I got a lot of really great and useful things for Christmas…stuff I have needed for a long time. I didn’t have many surprises because mom gave me money and told me to get what I wanted. My favorite surprises though were A) a Capo (pronounced kaypo) for my guitar so now I can finish writing a song I’ve been working on, and B) THE DAVID ARCHULETA CD!! It comes complete with a poster of him which I will surely hang on my wall when I get back to the apartment.
Feliz Navidad!
This is me and Stevie our freshman year. Neither of us look very different. I'm pretty sure the date on the camera is wrong...considering I didn't even meet her until over a year later.
This is (from left to right) Celes, Jenny, and Liz (and me!) up at Temple Square a couple weeks ago. We got tickets from my grandparents to see the MOTAB Christmas Concert. It was really great. My favorite line from the concert: I love Christmas...and do you know what else I love? I love animals!

Looks like Stevie is a lot of fun! Too bad we weren't friends freshman year... Can you believe we've been friends for a whole YEAR now?!?! Abby, you're really special to me.
So I found out that Joe need more freedom than I do. At least it says that we'll have a great physical relationship:)
And I like cheesecake! Well, I like purple balloons!
So . . . when I student-taught in inner-city Houston, I had a student named Charles who was as gangsta' as they come. He was always telling me about the grill he was going to buy when he graduated from the seventh grade. One day, he called me over and asked, "Miss J, what you is?" "I'm a math teacher." "No, Miss, what you IS?" I was tempted to bust out some 'daughter of God' stuff since I had NO idea what he was asking when he said, "You know, like scorpio or sagittarius . . what you IS??" We hadn't even been talking about Zodiac signs, but for some reason he thought I'd know what he was asking. Haha - I think about that whenever someone brings up horoscopes.
