day 6-a stranger

dear stranger,
my name is randi, but you dont know me.
i am quiet and shy, and mostly hate everything.
i like to learn, and am quite the nerd.
i am getting fantastic grades in school this semester and plan on getting a 4.0.
like i said, nerd.
i love the beach, palm trees, and sunshine.
i secretly wish i was rich and could just travel the world and be carefree.
i worry a lot and stress, and am a "mom" about everything.
i am very responsible and schedule everything in a planner.
i absolutely hate being late to things, i am always early or on time.
i get joy out of really simple things in life.
i currently have an unhealthy obsession with ke$ha.
i really love the utah jazz and craig owens, they're high on my priorities list.
i love boys who can grow a good beard, not a patchy one.
i am almost done with school and on the verge of being a "grown up";
it makes me nervous, but really excited.
my nails are always painted, it is a sick habit of mine; i paint them at least twice a week.

love, randi

day 5-your dreams

im not writing a letter TO my dreams, rather about them.
and by dreams i mean ambitions, not zZzZ dreams.

incase you never knew, i have a life list which i started in 2004.
its listed in detail in a previous blog.
things on it that i've accomplished include: meet craig owens, write a letter to my senator, run a 5k, go to europe, read a book every month for a year, learn to eat with chop sticks, skydive, etc.

things i have yet to accomplish include: graduate college, make working out a lifestyle not chore, surf, own a tiny pet pig, get jury duty, go to a fashion show, learn to cook.

my MAIN dream right now is to finish school and get hired on full time at a CSI, a real career, sigh.
i am still crossing my fingers about my internship at weber metro csi, and would love to get an internship for spring semester then hired on after that.
if weber metro wont have me i would love to go to henderson or las vegas.

if i cant find a job right away i want to join peace corps.
that has been a dream of mine for years (but you have to have a 4 year degree).
i would LOVE to volunteer in africa or anywhere really.
i am a humanitarian at heart, i would love to just serve full time if i was in the financial situation to do so.

yep, those are my dreams.

oh, and eventually i want to be head over heels in love with someone who feels the same way and is good looking and can grow a beard. we can have a family eventually too, that would be good.

day 4-your sibling


gina,
we dont ever hang out, or talk, or do anything together...so i dont really know what to write to you because you're kind of a stranger to me. hmmm.
i am glad you were 'good' growing up and set a good example for me to follow.
im glad you and spencer are happy together and that he fixes my car sometimes.
thanks for inviting me to watch movies last minute, even though i never come because its always when i have plans already.


love,
randi

day 3-my parents


i pick mom, because i like her more.

dear mom,
you are fantastic, seriously. i know we dont really talk about important things like boys, or my future, or my feelings, or have ever really had a 'mother daughter' talk, we dont talk about anything "important" really, but i like hanging out with you.
we are both funny, and giggly, and silly together; i wish we could be like that more often.
i like your amazing cooking and how you do anything for me.
i like how i can call you seven times in an hour to ask you how to cook something and you dont get annoyed with me.
i like calling you on my walk to my car after school just to say hi.
i appreciate that time a boy broke up with me for the first time and you drove to ogden to bring me a diet coke to cheer me up, because i was slightly devastated.
i am grateful you taught me the importance of working and saving money and didnt just hand out money or give me things when i asked for them, you made me work for them and earn them.
im so lucky you taught me to automatically save half of my money (allowance and pay checks) so i could have mega savings when i grew up.
i like how you taught me how to shop sales and brand names are dumb.
i like playing games and being on your team because we think the same way and always win.
i appreciate the fact that you've worked all my life to support our family since dad doesnt.
i am glad you're so good with computers because i know nothing and can always have you fix my lap top.
i like that you're obsessed with NKOTBSB right now, haha, we are getting tickets next summer.
i also like that we both have a crush on michael buble and you like the ice cube song "west".
thank you for everything you do for me, even though i come home after curfew (why i have a curfew at 22 i'm unsure) and sometimes give you a headache and am moody all the time.
thanks for helping me with school/rent/books.
i love you mom,
randi

day 2: my crush

i had a hard time picking one person, but narrowed it down.

dear crush,
you are cute and i love your new haircut.
i love watching you play and how good you are at it.
I dig that you LOVE recycling as much as me and i appreciate how hippie-earth-loving you are.
i like how you're going to school and planning on traveling.
i wish we'd hang out more besides the times we do, or spend our time doing better things though.
i wish you'd not use me so much; however, i did enjoy this weekend and its my fault for being a dumb girl and letting it happen.
you're cute, and i wish you'd like me like me, not just sort of like me sometimes.
blah.
i know i shouldnt like you, but i cant help but have a little [not so] secret crush on you.

love,
randi
