Women are from Mars...

Dear Readers,

So I randomly asked my brother and his friend what I should write about today and they suggested girls, followed by the top ten reasons men don't understand women. I can sum it in one: Men are stupid. They laughed at this comment and my brother agreed. So, why is it men and women are so different? I'll try to come up with some differences.

1. Women are much more effective when it comes to communication. I once heard a funny phrase about the fastest way to speak an idea, "Telegraph, Telephone or tel-a-woman." Although this is meant to mock women, the idea couldn't portray more truth. Women are great communicators and can spread any kind of news like wildfire. I'm pretty sure the origin of this speed can be found in the ancient tradition of going to the restroom in herds. Not to mention, when guys get together they usually only discuss three things: women, sports and their choice between cars, sleep or food. Thus, women are much more informed.

2. Men participate in pretty pointless activities. Women have hobbies similar in nature, but no where close in number. Racing cars, sporting tournaments, etc, are all pretty pointless. Yes, sports keep men in shape, but there is no reason to base an entire month off of basketball. Watching these sports on television dominates the list in idleness. I love sports, but they have so many needless applications.

3. Chick-flicks. Now, I would like to ask a question. What classifies a chick-flick? Women love them. Men hate them. I love them(Except for "Win a date with Tad Hamilton," that movie has a terrible flavor). Until that receives a good answer, I will let your imagination give an in-depth description of the different genders' opinions.

4. I have kind of the same policy about what men and women think about love. Women strive for it and men...to be quite honest, I don't know what men think. Although, I enjoy the comedy sketch by Shaun Rapier about the BYU Board with Wedding rings and dresses. Watch that to find another explination of how men and women are different.

5. Women take forever to get ready. Case and point: I had to be over to a rehearsal at 10 this morning. I got up at 9:45 and was still there with five minutes to spare. Also in my house this morning was one of my brother's female friends. She appeared to been up for about an hour when I was running out the door and she was still in the bathroom straightening her hair. Women take forever. Especially at dances. They need about 3 hours. Although, I love the song entitled, "Waitin' on a woman." It points out that men don't mind anticipating the girl's arrival.

There are many more differences, but if we were to explore them all I would be here all night. I can't pretend to even begin to know them all. So, Curtis, you and your girlfriend should feel honored I took my subject from your inspiration. :)

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breath, shine like gold...

Dear Readers, Ok, so I can't fit the entire title into the title box. It's a good song, go look it up: "You make me smile." The title can apply to anyone, I've found. The rest of the lyrics would probably refer to a best friend or a significant other, but anyone can make you smile. They all have the own way of doing it. Some are just funny all the time and you can't help smiling when you're around that person. I know some who take care of people so well that you just smile when they're doing something for another. Others you can talk to about your problems and no matter what they say, it seems to make sense and you feel better...thus a smile. Ok, a smile doesn't always come in that case, but people usually smile after that. Anyone can have a blonde moment and make everyone smile because of it. I'm glad I've got friends who can do all of these: have blonde moments, take care of others or have an episode of hyperactivity that you can't he...

Happy Doo da Day!

Dear Readers, You'll all be pleased to know that I accomplished something recently. It involves music and I feel very proud of myself. I was selected by our music director to play in our school's concerto night sometime during the month of May. This is one of the few things I've been hoping to do for a very long time. Although, there are a few reservations about being part of this honor. One of which deals with how the selection process works. I know it doesn't matter in the least bit, but I can't help thinking about me being picked as a senior. I tried out last year and did not make it as one of the soloists. I have to assume that had to be part of the process in selecting someone when looking at the list of soloists. They are all amazingly talented people in music, many of which were part of Concerto night last night. Most of the ones who were not participated in the Spring Concert as soloists. See what I mean? It could be possible that I was picked merely because...

When You Wish Upon a Star

Dear Reader, One short day in the [Segovia] City! It is a beautiful city, to be sure. As part of our study abroad program in Spain, our group takes various trips to different cities here in Spain to see museums, palaces and history from several different eras of humanity. Today it was a pleasure to travel to Segovia. We had several adventures while we were there. First off, we stopped off at the Palacio de la Granja (Palace of the Farm). It was an attempt to replicate the Palace of Versailles in France back in the 18th century. We weren't able to enter the palace itself, but we spent about an hour walking around the numerous gardens on the south side of the palace. The palace gardens awesome. The pictures taken here don't do it justice. The gardens stretched father than you can see and the statues were absolutely beautiful. They were representations of hunting on the grounds with dogs, Greek Gods, and other famous figures from the middle ages. However, despit...
