Dr Kelso "nothing in this world worth having comes easy"

This show is awesome. And it may or may not make me cry sometimes...haha But this particular episode I watched today and with whats going on in my life lately I felt like I could relate to this a lot....By now with this situation it doesn't really matter anymore so its become a lesson learned a little too late, and something to work on for later...

Nothing in this world worth having comes easy, and I think thats the way God intended it to be.

Nothing is perfect. Especially relationships, but the ones that really matter are worth fighting for. I learned that the hard way and I really do believe that relationships aren't perfect, you have to do a lot of giving, and forgiving but in the end its worth it, if you're willing to work for it.

and on a lighter note, this is one of my all time favorites, cause I can relate to it so much.

I do that very same thing at least six times a day.

Oh you silly Utah people

Can we talk about how retarded Utah drivers are? Or maybe just Utah people in general? Okay maybe not...all....Utah...people...(that was hard for me to say), but seriously, why do people find it so difficult to operate an automobile? How did these people get their license in the first place? How do they suck at life so badly!? so fun fact about Meaghan. I have an extremely bad...no not even bad, extremely awesome case of road rage. :) haha okay its pretty bad.
It is rare that I drive somewhere and don't end up shaking my head in sheer amazement at the idiocy of these people or when its really bad cussing out another driver....in my head of course...;) and honest to goodness the majority (given not all) but the majority of the stupid drivers I have encountered have been from the lovely state of Utah. As if all the annoyingly naive, excruciatingly peppy girls and the arrogantly ignorant guys (more about that later trust me!) aren't enough, 85% of people in provo/orem also suck at driving. And not even just driving, but doing anything that involves a vehicle! At my chevron I've had 3 people drive away with the gas pump still in their car, many who are completely lost on the concept of prepaying for gas, and the act of even pumping their gas. And just today, some lady managed to spill about 12 gallons of gas on the sidewalk! Perfect. haha (please note this really is me being cynical and I do mostly just think this stuff is hilarious!)
I really don't like driving long distances when someone else is driving, because in my head I judge everything they do I can't help it! Haha I'm so kind :) everyone I drive with is gonna get a complex now! ha. kidding. It's not all the time only when I don't have anything to distract me....
I LITERALLY can't stand the people: that don't know how to drive the speed limit, or appropriately over the speed limit, who think that to yield means to stop completely in the middle of an on ramp (that mostly happens in Texas) who don't know how to merge, who refuse or just don't move the F out of the fast lane when someone is behind them going faster, who pull out in front of someone or cut them off, who drive slow until someone tries to pass them and then speed up to, well lets be honest, just to be a moron! and all the many other completely and utterly, mind blowing-ly stupid things people do. Would you do the people who aren't mentally incompetent, a favor and stay off of the dang road!

haha reading back on that I kinda sound like a really big jerk, I really don't like wanna kill everyone that doesn't know how to drive it would just be nice if everyone was as good of a driver as I am :) ;)

Just a few things on my mind tonight!

This is me at about 17 such a good year!!!! man...

I'm moving soon!!!

Hi!! So can I just say i'm way super excited to move into my new place this month! And i'm pretty happy to be out of apartments. I'm kind of sick of Provo right now and Utah in general!, I was getting pretty antsy, contemplating moving out of state all last month but I decided I shouldn't run away again! Consequently I'm way excited for this house and my roommates are way laid back and fun girls! it'll be a good change and to get away from lots of things I want to forget! I'm also excited that my brother gets back this month! He's definitely one of my favorite people and one of my best friends, I can't wait to hang out with him again! So today I did another Zumba class which was fuuuunnn! I do wish I had someone I know in the class with me though. Cause I constantly just wanna start laughing because I feel retarded! but I can't cause no one else is laughing! (Reagan where are you when I need you homegirl!!) But its all good, and then I went and ran on the treadmill which is...not so fun but I was listenin to some Dr. Dre and other good pump up music so that always makes it better. also there was a way good looking guy on the treadmill behind me so it gave me more motivation ;) I'm not gonna lie, hot guys are often the cause of my motivation...speaking of guys, can I tell you about the best and worst pick up line I had used on me last week? so there I was getting some gas for my little ghetto car and these two guys at the next pump go, "Hey baby, whats your grade? whats your grade?"(Pointing to the different grades of gas) ha! I just looked at them and shook my head, I may have giggled a little bit too. but Really what can you say to that? Has that worked for you before buddy? You should probably just drive away now. Okay lets be honest, I secretly really like corny pick up lines, I like to know that people have some confidence, it makes me want to have more confidence! So thanks you boys, I may just use that line someday... ;)

This is totally going in my blog!

So this is the beginning of what I hope will be a successful attempt at that blogging thing! I've always wanted to start a blog, mostly so I can say "This is totally going in my blog!!!" -Barney-How I met your mother- (best show ever) and because I have a lot of random thoughts that sometimes I just feel like writing down! so here it goes:

First off I'll introduce myself! I've never been very good at talking about myself, but maybe i'll be better at writing about myself

My name is Meaghan Camille Ricks. I don't really understand the point of middle names, does anyone ever really introduce themselves using their full name? Anyway I digress, My name is Meaghan. Some people call me megs, lately lots of people, and lots of people I don't even know have called me meg. I also get all the fun variations cause my name is spelled so awesome, but I consider myself, Meaghan.

I was born and raised in a City known as Bakersfield in the best state ever, CaliforniA. Also known to its residents as Bako, or what I've heard more, lately, Bakes. Which are both quite accurate cause it gets so insanely hot during the, well at anytime of the year. The weather is quite retarded. Not as bi-polar as I have found the weather in my current location (Provo Utah) to be but it is always some degree of hot, or so it seems. Which I really hate. Any temperature in the extreme is not okay with me. I'm always cold, always, unless its super hot. And being really hot makes me extremely grumpy. In my opinion it should be 65-70 and sunny, all. the. time. well...no lower than 45 and no higher than 85. fair enough? Anyway moving on, I'm gonna make a list, just for funsies

1. I consider myself a very laid back person....which is a nice way of saying I can, at times, be extremely lazy. I do love doing crazy and random things though, like spray painting old trains, climbing mountains, jumping off cliffs and out of airplanes.

2. If I had it my way I would play in a very intense Volleyball tournament everyday! and go hiking, camping or something like that, at least twice a week.

3. One of my life goals is to travel the world and eventually live in New York and Ireland...or New Zealand.

4. I am a very forgiving person, I don't believe in holding grudges, and I don't believe in fighting with people you love. it takes a lot to get me mad, (unless you're my little sister shes pretty good at it) but it doesn't take a lot to make me sad. And I do get my feelings hurt pretty easily, it's something I'm trying to work on.

5. I am very defensive when people call me out on things, some may say thats prideful I really don't think thats it, I just don't like feeling like I've done something wrong or hurt someone in anyway (unless they deserved it), so I defend my actions! ....So just shut up about it cause I do what I want! ;) no actually this is my biggest personality flaw, I think, and I'm really trying to work on that too.

6. I like being sarcastic, a lot.

7. I am a very loving person. When I love someone or fall in love, I love very deeply. Which lets be honest, kinda sucks. It means I get hurt a lot and care too much sometimes. But then again, lucky for the people I love cause I really would do anything to help someone I love :)

8. I have the best family in the world. No questions.

9. I also have the best friend in the world! She is my other half and we are pretty much telepathic.

10. I hate it when people judge other people, or trash talk anyone. It is definitely one of my biggest pet peeves. I find it incredibly immature, it reminds me of high school, do us all a favor and get over yourself.

11. I am not one of those peppy "oh my gosh!!" always happy, i'm always on an overdose of prozac kinda girls. I don't have enough energy for that, lets be honest. Don't get me wrong sometimes I'm probably pretty annoying, I love to laugh (loudly) at a lot of things and when I've had a monster or Red Bull I like to act crazy and talk to random people. But really? Lets tone it down a bit on the peppiness. You make my head hurt.

12. I'm completely 100% addicted to Diet Coke. I know I'm probably gonna die when i'm 30 and my internal organs really hate me but, really? I don't care enough. I like it, alot. and I'm going to drink it regardless, so don't try and talk me out of it, its just annoying.

So thats me...not all of me I'm just kind of bored with writing at the moment and I kind of want some cookies.
