Tuckers, Tuckers Everywhere!!

This week the Tucker family is in five different states!

I am in Idaho...as always.
Eli is in Utah going to school.
Seth is in North Caroline visiting Tucker cousins. (He flew all by himself through the Chicago airport.  I'm still not sure how he made it there alive.)
Mom, Meredith and Noah are in Kansas visiting some friends.
Dad and Zach are in Ohio...Zach at school and Dad all by his lonesome at home.  Thankfully, Zach is going home this weekend to do taxes with dad so they will keep each other company.

Wow, we are quite the travelers!

Next weekend I'm headed down to Utah on Friday for General Conference and Eli timed his mission papers perfectly so I will be able to be there when he opens his call!!

Presentation Practice?

So, yet again I prove to the world that I am not the greatest student that's ever lived.  You think I would've learned not to procrastinate assignments by now.  Think again.

Actually, this time it's not so much procrastination...I just always have this "everything is going to turn out great" philosophy for things like presentations.  This means that I do not really practice them beforehand.  I don't time them.  I don't do anything.  I just go for it!

In the past, this has worked just fine for me.  Tomorrow, I'm thinking the class might eat me alive.  But I just can't make myself legitimately practice.  I'll probably do a trial run but I doubt it'll make much of a difference.

Whatever.

It's not like it's my final for the class.

It's not like this is my only class for the semester so if I don't get an A I will really consider myself a failure.

Whatever.

Such is life.

No practices.  No redo's.  Just go for it!

Randomness Is Good

Now that I have joined the 21st century and got a smartphone I sometimes forget I still take pictures.  Here's a little catching up...through pictures...in no particular order.

I found a baby!

A boy walking his parrot to class....

This....is just awesome.

My employee picture in front of the Wellness Center.  That's how fantastic I am.

Skype date night!!!  And Meredith as the awkward third wheel....

Best boyfriend ever!  Sent me some very comfy sweats.   I wear them all the time now.

There ya have it.  My life in pictures.  Minus any food pictures because I post too many of those....

TP or not TP...is that even a question?

Someone please tell me how an apartment of 6 girls can go through a pack of 12 toilet paper in less than a week.  CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN THIS?!?!  Because I am completely and utterly baffled.  If this is a fact (and this past week, it was) it would mean each girl is using 1/3 of a roll of toilet paper a day.  I know I am certainly not going to the bathroom that much.  Is it physically possible to use the bathroom that much?  And if I'm not using my 1/3 per day that means someone else is using MORE than a third a day.  WHAT THE?!?!  Honestly, I'm tempted to put cameras in the bathrooms to see who the culprit is and what they're doing.  Do they forget a towel after their shower and need it to dry off?  Are they stuffing their bra?  Are they eating it (yeah, it really happens...)???   

WHERE IS MY TOILET PAPER GOING?!  

On a related note...remember this post from Peru regarding the LACK of toilet paper in practically every public place.  What an adventure that was...

Bored. Boring. Boringest.

I think I've lost my knack for writing funny stuff on my blog.  It all seems so boring.  I literally do nothing worth writing about this semester.  I go to work, eat, take an occasional nap, work, work some more, go to class, maybe do some homework, work, go to church and sleep.  That's it.  Next semester will be better.  I promise.  And if it isn't, there's going to be some major issues.     

Long Distance Relationships= Suck

Whoever said long distance relationships were hard was sooooo........right.  But wrong at the same time.  But mostly right.  They kind of suck just a wee little bit.  I can't make up my mind.

Even though they're hard because all you can do is talk for hours, they're kind of great because all you can do is talk for hours.  Can I have a "hip, hip hooray!!!" for Verizon to Verizon calling?

Anyways, I'm not going to complain.  It's just what life has dealt us and we're working through it day by day.  Two months have now gone by and only one left.  We're in the home stretch now!!

Sledding (President's Day)

This is almost two weeks overdue but here's some pictures from our ward sledding activity on President's day.  We went to some sand dunes and there were MASSIVE hills.
