Good News and Bad News

As this week comes to an end,
I have some good news and some bad news.

I think I'm gonna start with the bad news first,
cause I'm about 99.84024% positive you won't wanna end with this image in your head.
Ok.. here it goes..
On Monday evening,
I was feeding our fish
{Andres Flores
Ole Ole Ole
Philipe Guacamole
Martinez Gonzalez}
and I noticed his stomach was lookin' a little larger than normal.
After an intense investigation by yours truly,
I came to the conclusion that:
OUR FISH HAS A FREAKIN' TUMOR.
(Yes, very weird.. I know.)
This ugly lump has been getting bigger each day and I have no stinkin' idea what to do!
I don't want the poor little guy to suffer..
but at the same time,
How the heck would I kill it to put it out of it's misery??
After all,
I have a little confession:

My name is Jenaye Lauren Collins
and I save bugs from the pool.

How can I personally kill a fish
if I hate watching bugs die?!
I'm in a rough spot to say the least..

On to the good news!

I made history yesterday when I
SIGNED A LEASE FOR MY FIRST APARTMENT!
(Don't pass out Mom.)

I am so unbelievably excited!
The part that I'm lookin' forward to the most is
decorating.
I am also lovin' the fact that I will have a full-sized fridge
AND
my own washer and dryer!
{Cha-ching}
I am livin' with three other really nice girls.
To make things even better,
we each get our own bathroom!
:)

I got some pictures respresenting my hopes and dreams for my apartment.
However, I do realize these are just DREAMS,
and not reality whatsoever.
BUT...
if I could, I would make my apartment look like this:

The Kitchen:


The Living Room:


The Bedroom:


And the Bathroom:


Oh how I wish that was possible..

I have a test tomorrow and
I have no plans for this weekend..
I will probably try to get some homework done.
Sadly,
I won't be comin' home til Spring Break
which is March 16-20.

Have a great weekend!

Peace Girls!

Oh how I hate Mondays..

This past weekend was wonderful!
On Friday, I went to a car show with my dad.
He was so excited that I finally went with him and actually rode in his GTX with him.
It is so funny to me how proud he is of that thing..
I guess it must be a guy thing.
:)

From there, Seth picked me up and we went to ASU (booooo!!) to watch a few bands play.
Besides the fact that it felt like Antarctica outside, it was really fun!

On Saturday,
I got up kinda early
(early as in like ten o'clock)
and made myself some pancakes.
Usually my dad makes them for me and I decided after tasting mine,
that I'm definitely gonna leave the pancake-making to him.

Later that day, Seth picked me up and we went to Chandler Mall.
What I am about to say might surprise you all:
I didn't buy anything.
To be honest, I'm kinda really proud of myself!
I guess it's easier not to buy anything when you are flat out broke though.
;)

After the mall,
we went back to Seth's house
where he cooked me an amazing Valentine's Day dinner.
It was so thoughtful of him to make my favorite meal!
He even got my favorite dessert!

Ok, you might be surprised again...
but we totally broke up that night.
I'm not gonna go into detail,
but things just weren't workin' out the way we wanted them to.
But let me tell ya.. there's no way I'm givin' up!
Hopefully everything will work out in the end.
But for now,
I've just gotta load my dorm room with cookies and some white chocolate-covered pretzels.
:)

Needless to say,
my Monday has been a little rough.
And...
I'm actually feelin' a little stressed for the first time this semester.
I need to get goin' on all my work tomorrow to make sure it's done by Friday.
After all, I'm going home again for my Mom's Birthday!
:)
{Love you Madre!}

I hope everyone is havin' a great week so far!

Peace Girls!

Finally

I have kept you girls waiting long enough...
I finally have a picture with the new man.
:)



I am feelin' kinda really productive this week.
I have gotten ahead in almost all of my classes
and I am so glad to not be feelin' stressed!

Even more exciting news...
I found a roommate for next year!!
I am going out to dinner with her tonight to talk about where we wanna live!
I will keep you updated.
:)

Madre is outta town for work stuff.
Her and I have a date on Valentine's Day since I gotta pick her up from the airport.
Can't wait to see her!

Hope everyone is having a great week so far!

Peace girls!

So Random

I was sitting in my room and I realized that I needed to update my blog.
But...
I didn't exactly know what to write about this time since nothin' new has really been goin' on.
So I decided that I'm gonna make a list of things that not a whole lot of people know about me.
I know,
kinda weird,
but it's somethin' a little different than normal.
Here it goes!

1. I have to sleep with my closet doors closed or I can't fall asleep.
2. I am 19 years old and I still sleep with my baby blanket (named Blue Blanky) and my bear (named Joey).
3. I have to match at all times.. even my pajamas have to coordinate.
4. If I could have one talent in the whole world, I would want to be able to sing.
5. I miss dancing like crazy and I want to start taking classes again extremely bad.
6. I have a serious addiction to shoes and purses.
7. I totally snort when I laugh.
8. My Mom is my best friend of all time.
9. I absolutely HATE Home Depot and Costco..
the whole warehouse type thing just isn't workin' for me.
10. I straight up jam out in my car when I'm by myslf.
11. Never in my life will I not have blonde hair.
12. High school was probably one of the worst times of my life and I would never go back if given the chance.
13. I'm kinda overly obsessed with ribbon.
:/
14. I am a firm believer that you can do anything you put your mind to. You just have to be willing to put in the hard work.
15. I am way too concerned about what other people think about me.
16. I wouldn't trade my life for anybody else's.
17. My cooking skills go about as far as mac -n- cheese.
18. I despise UGG boots. I think they are hideous.
(Sorry if you own a pair.)
19. My favorite numbers are 14 and 45 and they seem to follow me everywhere.
20. I am probably the most impatient person you will ever meet.
I would not recommend driving with me.
:)

I am coming home this weekend
(thank goodness)
and I've got a few cards to make and a cute boy to see.
:)
Preston has his interview in Colorado tomorrow..
I'm kinda really stinkin' nervous for him.
But I know he is gonna do great!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Peace Girls!
