I am so freaking bored here in class. It seriously can't get over soon enough. I need to stop by the store on the way home for a few huge bottles of water. I've done a little bit of research and the pains I'm slightly feeling are brought on by dehydration so I need to drink more water. If they get worse I'll call the doctor but I doubt it will come to that.
25 minutes left until class is over. Hopefully I can turn in my lab assignments today because I'll probably forget them on Wednesday. I am so ready for this month to be over; maybe we'll get a nice day before April. 5 more days til my birthday and I've never felt so old in all my life. Being pregnant sure does take a toll on the body and honestly I never thought I'd be pregnant on my 24th birthday. I always wanted to wait until I finished school but I am quite happy with my little Monkey :-) I wouldn't have it any other way right now.
I really need to get out of here before my IQ drops any lower.

Yes, another WTE rant. This one shouldn't bother me as much as gender disappointment but yet, for some reason, it's right up there with it.
I don't understand board hoppers. Ok, let me rephrase that. Let's say you are due May 30th but don't know when the LO is coming so you are part of the May board and part of the June board. Or vice versa, if you are due in early June but your LO comes early, or if you have a C-section scheduled for a few days to a week early. I can understand that fully. I can also understand if you go into labor early or need to be induced due to pre-eclampsyia(sp?) but other than those issues you have no reason to board hop.
What I don't understand are the women that are due full well into another month and yet still insist on board hopping. Hey lady, you are due July 10th even if you were to come, let's say, a week early you'd still be on the JULY board! Plus there was a woman that was due July 25th that was posting on our board. I understand going to other boards and checking out what others are talking about but to actually post? Uhm no thanks. This shouldn't bother be but it does. If your home board is so unsupportive to where you have to hop to another board, which in the case of the woman due July 25th she could've went to the August board, then maybe you should find a different forum for support.
I know that if my home board wasn't as supportive as it is I would no longer be on WTE. If I couldn't find the extra support on a pregnancy forum you can bet your sweet bippy that I wouldn't go back to that website. I wouldn't dream of going to the July or even the May boards and posting. I would look at the topics and read the comments but I wouldn't post on them. I wouldn't feel right since I am due in the middle of June. Even if I were to come early, or even late, I'm sure I would still be in the month of June.
I don't know. I just feel my hormones rising every time I see someone from July, hell there were some people from the August board posting!, it bothers me because they really shouldn't post on a different month's board. These hormones suck royally and I just wish it were June already!
I have so much to do today. I've got to shower, do homework, do laundry, go to my doctor's appointment, come back home to clean my room up, and then pack a bag and head over to Becky's house for the weekend.

Another boring post from me. I'll be 24 in 11 days and the one thing I'm going to miss is not being able to have my strawberry margarita from the Roadhouse. I also need to have my hair thinned out, seriously. I hate having thick hair and I know it's going to come out after birth but I need to thin this mop on my head. Plus I may be able to get some more of the blond cut off. My ends are still blond/blue and I know if those can get cut off my hair might just actually grow. I keep having dreams of having long hair again and I truly want my long hair back. I'm talking about the long hair I had when I was younger; so long I could sit on it.
I am pretty hungry right now. I am gonna get dressed and try to find some num-yums. Which to a pregnant lady chicken nuggets are sounding so good. So I'm probably going to head to Giant Eagle and get some. Plus it'll be safer to go to GE than to sit in the lunch rush at McDonalds or something.
I am going to finish my episode of Family Guy, then get dressed, then head out. Dad said the main roads are clear and I heard someone drive down our road and it sounded like slush. Hurray!

Another stupid rant:
I really wish people would use proper grammar and punctuation. Especially all of the women on the WTE Boards. Seriously? Most of them are in their 20's (or older) but yet they talk in "txt speak" and it irritates the hell out of me. i CaN't UnDeRsTaNd u WeN u tYpE LyKe DiS. It's annoying as hell and you are grown women. Learn to spell and use grammar/punctuation as if you actually went to school. Please for the love of whatever god is up there, type like you have an education. It's quite embarrassing when ladies my age, and older, type like they are 3 years old and expect people to not jump on them about proper spelling/grammar/punctuation.
I try so hard to make sure that my spelling/grammar/punctuation is correct and I proofread all of my posts before I actually post them. Oh and don't even use the excuse, "My phone auto-corrects to the words I normally use when I text." Bull. Shit. My iPod auto corrects to the correct words, normally but there are times where I have to fix the word myself. Again I proofread all of my posts before hitting "Post."
Also I've realized something about my family...they represent Family Guy. Fuzz is Peter, Crystal is Lois, Jonell is Meg, Taven is Chris, and Lexi is Stewie. Pretty odd if you ask me.
Well anyways I have a few things I need to do. Hopefully we don't get that ice storm/snow storm they are calling for.

YAY! I finally remembered my password! Go Me! I seriously need to keep up with this blog and I will start by renovating it. It needs a new theme/color scheme. After I do that I am kind of craving Peanut Butter Crunch Cereal...it's also my first milk craving in this pregnancy.
ETA: I am extremely surprised at all the women on my home board. You would not believe how many of them are disappointed that they are having the opposite gender than they wanted. I get being a little sad about it but it being so bad that they cry for days on end and feel "detached" is beyond me. I think that they should just be happy that they have healthy babies and the gender shouldn't be that big of a deal to them. I understand wanting one gender but getting another could suck but there was one woman that was seriously depressed over finding out she was having a boy. She kept thinking she was having girl and she even bought bows, dresses, pink stuff, and every time she felt "down" or "depressed" she would cheer herself up by buying girly things. When she found out it was a boy she nearly flipped a lid claiming that it couldn't be a boy (or something along those lines) and how she couldn't believe that she was having a boy after buying all those girly things.
....People, you DO realize that gender is 50/50? You get what you get not what YOU want. I seriously can not believe that a mother would be so selfish to think that the gender of their baby is more important than the health and growth rate of their baby. BE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU GOT! BEING PREGNANT IS A BLESSING AND IT IS SELFISH OF YOU TO BE THAT DISAPPOINTED IN THE GENDER OF YOUR BABY. There are millions, possibly more, of women that would LOVE to conceive but can't and yet here you women are bitching about how you didn't get the gender YOU WANTED. Y'all should be HIGHLY ashamed of yourselves! BE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU ARE BLESSED WITH! I just hate how many threads I see on my home board about women that are "so disappointed" in what gender they are blessed with. Get a grip it's not about you anymore! It's about that little one growing in your stomach..."you" pretty much went out the window when you got pregnant.
Ok I'm done ranting and raving.
