What's on your mind - Ladies edition

Social anxiety + christmas(gift giving) is terrible. Getting stuff for my immediate family isn't so bad but getting stuff for cousins and friends makes me so anxious. I almost don't even want to receive anything so that I don't feel obligated to give anything. I don't know what people want, if I don't get them the best gift ever then they'll be not happy, if I don't wrap this perfectly they'll think I don't care, what if someone already got this for them, what if I don't spend enough etc. so many things ahhhhh. Imma just get hammered on Christmas and tell them they're the best and I love them to make up for it hahaha.

Make two holes, One on the top half and one on the bottom. I couldn't tell you exact measurements off the top of my head. If is a tube they can always turn it so its hits the right side. But I know with my face tubes if its a really snowy day I send up switching which side is on my face and which is on my neck at lunch cause it gets wet.

Yeah that makes sense, I usually double up with a buff and a fleecy neckwarmer that's shorter, but ik my dad and some of my friends like the more "hood" style ones. the flipping is a good idea!!

I would lovvvveee to try and work out a design/ ideal placement if your keen to collab??

Yeh was gonna give it ago myself, was thinking like fleece kinda material ones. With no designated like "front" so if you wanted your plait out the front of your hoodie or something! Idk

yea!! I actually just picked up fleece today for another project,I'll definitely have extra, plus extra lying around from years past in my scraps bin. I could let you know what kind of measurements/ref photos I'd need and we could figure it out!!

YEAH. and watching them open your gifts... that's the worst part. Cause like if they hate it, I don't wanna see a fake smile/reaction but I also would feel terrible if they're disappointed and showed it. And when people watch me open gifts lmfao. I feel obligated to act so happy and surprised and feel goofy as fuck. It's so awkward hahahaha.

I'm glad we dont have those at my mtn haha. It's irritating cause all the vollys here have an undeserved god complex and don't really know who lift maintenance is and if I roll up to a lift they all puff out their chests and get lippy with me and it's like shut up fuckers, you don't have a clue.

ok so theyre these people who can volunteer their time to be fun-killers and ski around the mountain in their annoying puke green jackets and tell you to slow down around corners they hide behind in unsafe spots lol and in exchange for their hours they get a day pass or some shit

basically older people and parents who feel the need to make the mountain "safer"

I saw one bomb through the park the other day just cutting in front of landings of features and doing their thing. ugh

i hate them. theyre think their high and mighty.

did i mention i dislike them

I can spot you or Kurt from some distance.
 
Hanging out with my best friend tonight. Her bf isn't here. We're just getting drunk and playing bs games and listening to great music just like old times. Sometimes I miss this part of high school. It really was a great time. I'm fucking so happy right now.
 
Work is torturous today. We are slow as hell, because all of our clients are on vacation between the holidays, and all I want to do is go ski... luckily I can get out there tomorrow!

I can picture this perfectly hahahaha
 
Drinking a glass of wine while working makes the day significantly better.

In the end my job isn't too terrible. Because wine. And Netflix.
 
I did something I really shouldn't have and now I want to keep doing it because doing it was super fun. I am a child haha
 
Here's my sappy new year post.

2016 was unbelievably influential in my life. I went through the roughest break up thus far with a guy who helped shape who I am as a person. Being able to still be friends with him was a huge relief, which I didn't think would be possible. That showed me how understanding people can be.

My dad had another heart attack this year, which really threw me for a loop. We almost lost him, and I'm so so so grateful for his life and how much he loves me.

I got to see my family on the east coast and travel alone, which I greatly enjoy.

I started my senior year of college, which has been the easiest semester I've had...so happy about that.

I've met SO many great friends this year too. I'm beyond stoked about how close we've all become.

I met a few dudes who helped show me what I look for in a partner and how important it is to be friends in addition to dating. This brought me to meeting a super rad dude who I can be myself around and who has a complimentary outlook to mine.

Most importantly, in 2016 I learned to love myself and everything in life. Self love and caring is SO fucking important. I have never been as happy as I am. It's so special to love every little thing and enjoy the little things. It sounds so cliche, but when you can achieve that, you've achieved so much.

Wow fuck 2017 is going to be awesome too. I'm graduating college, which is so weird to me.

well cool idk i had to say this somewhere.
 
I'm watching a documentary on volcanoes and they had archaeologist in it and I started crying because I want to be on a neolithic dig instead of a Roman one and it's a stupid thing to cry over.
 
I haven't been this sick in a very long time. I spent the entire night puking anything I tried to eat or drink and shitting blood.
 
Got the morning off work to go ski 10" of fresh pow, but instead spent last night and this morning hurling my guts out and not being able to move from the bathroom... greatttt
 
PSA: Don't read this.

My roommate sent me a snapchat saying "when your boyfriend moves in and you get a drawer full of t-shirts."

She told me he wasn't moving in until June, which worked perfect because I move out in May. So she's either doing this to get a reaction out of me/start an argument or she's being serious. I asked her two days ago if he actually moved in and I have gotten no response. Which leads me to believe this is another one of her made up stories to get a reaction out of me.

Last week she told all of her friends that I haven't paid for cable/internet/wifi since we have moved in, which was a blatant lie. I only heard about it because one of them blew up my phone demanding me to pay her. But when I asked her about it, no response. Last month she was mad because I wouldn't go out to buy her eggs in a snow storm, so she made up a story and told it to one of my friends which caused a bunch of unnecessary bullshit. Again, I asked her about it and she had no response.

I am trying to not stoop down to her level. I've been doing my best to ignore her and not give her the reaction she's looking for(honestly probably why I complain about it so much here and I'm sorry). But I've had enough and I'm about to lose it. I'm not even that mad about what she's done; I'm more upset that I've been dragged into situations that shouldn't even be happening/involve me. It raises my anxiety which I clearly have trouble with and it's just unnecessary and should be easily avoidable.

I confronted her once when we first moved in over something superficial and she threatened her life and started a ton of shit. I would like that to not happen again because it is rather childish (plus mucho anxiety for me). However, I should probably realize that is not my doing and if she wants to be immature then I guess that's how it's going to be. I just don't want to be dragged down with that shit anymore.

I bought a jacket this year that unzips from the bottom -> top as well as top -> bottom and it's the greatest thing ever. so much easier to pee quickly
 
I'm going skiing today for the first time since I tore my ACL in early February. To say I'm nervous would be a complete understatement. Here's to nothing
 
My dad's girlfriend just signed up for the 50k up here this summer! Super stoked, she's never been to MT before and I can't wait to show her around and watch her kick some ass.
