Yo soy muy bien! A mi me gusta estudio en la Universidad..

Well hello my familia y amigos. I have been way mucho busy this semester and haven't posted since before thanksgiving. However, I did have time to write a remix to an old favorite song you all know and love. here'goes "The life of a student is just nothing but work, the life of a student will just drive me berserk. The life of a student is a beau-ti-ful thing, when Hea-ven-ly Fa-ther pre-sents me some ne-cks to wring!" I sing that everyday when I get on the trax at 6:45 in the morning. So this semester I am talking 3 english classes, a service learning course and as you may have guessed spanish. Speaking of Service learning, I am so fortunate to personally know a certain teacher at Jordan who is letting me do my service with her. YAY it's so fun. 

      I am constantly bogged down with reading and writing but I guess that's what to expect from an English class. Right now 

I am reading Gulliver's travels and am greatly enthralled. Next week we are reading Jane Eyre.  Also I am writing a poem daily in my English 3400 class, and I am memorizing conjugations of verbs like nobodies business for my Spanish class. I feel like with the amount of time I put into my classes I should be the most fluent spanish poetry writer EVER! Also, I am starting up my choir again. Thankfully the Bishopric has realized the amount of work I was doing with being in charge of ALL of the music in every meeting and have finally gotten some people to support me in my calling. I'm still the chorister and ward

 choir director but now I don't have to play for relief-society and they have called some girls to play the organ and the piano for the choir. We'll see how this turns out. We are starting to get our Easter songs together we are singing Consider the Lilies, Beautiful Savior, and This is the Christ. I have also made up my own Arrangement of Where Love is there God is also, which I am going to have my men sing this month in Sacrament meeting.ANYWAY, the real reason I decided to blog was this; I am trying to compile my favorite recipes and I need help. I know that you all make some of my favorite dishes and since there are so many of my favorites I can't remember them all. So here is what I want. I want each of you (I mean EVERYONE who is reading this) to LIST your:

top 5 favorite main dishes

top 5 Desserts

top 3 Other

and then write out completely 1-2 recipes of your choosing.

I do have some requests.

Shelly- lime melt aways

Jenny- cabbage rolls, and that fruit pie/pastry thing with cream cheese filling that you make at tea parties

Jim-egg casserole 

Sara- Zucchini bread, Baclava(i don't know if this is your recipe, I just remember you making it.)

Stacy- Sweet and sour meatballs (you know I love 'em)

Josh- I think they are Swedish pancakes (they are like crepes)

Morgan- That salad with mustard poppy seed dressing

Adela- that chocolate thing you made at New Years

Mo- Those one Rolls. ya know?

These are all that I can think of right now but I know there are more.  I'll think of some more later.

 One last thing. Funny story actually. So, I work at the Apple store right? And so I get to learn some pretty cool things about computers on a daily basis. Well, Last week I learned a really good trick. I learned how to make computers talk. I was sitting at my computer at work and decided to have some fun. I programed my computer to make the other computers talk. So I would be sitting across the room typing in "Hello John" right as john walked by and  the computer across the room from me would say "Hello John" in the VIKI voice from irobot. It was the funniest thing to see grown men freak out because the computer knew them. they 

would look covertly around and then some of them would try to talk back to the computer. And it (I) would answer them. I can change the voices so it sounds like the typical female computer or Have a deep male voice tell them to "get to work". I almost wet my pants.

 My roommate has a Macbook pro. So last night I was in my room doing my homework;-) and I heard her get on her computer. Ha ha wicked thoughts, So I typed, "Hello ashley." 

"Hello Ashley." I heard VIKI say.

 Ashley's, "WHAT THE!!" was not very loud but full of nervous astonishment. Had my hands not been clamped over my mouth maniacal laughter would have escaped.

 "Are you doing your homework Ashley?" the computer asked. "Who is that? Leslie, My computer is talking to me!" 

"What?" I asked in all innocence. 

"Would you like me to play you a song?" VIKI said.

(Now this is really wicked of me) My Iphone has a remote that will let me play songs from anyones computer without them knowing or having control. I went into the living room and sat down next to Ash with my phone. Ashley leaned into her computer and said to it, "i guess" so there I sat, my own victim my alibi and pressed play on my Iphone and her itunes on her computer popped up and started playing a random song. She looked so scared that I couldn't contain myself I was light headed from laughing so hard. Good thing she was a good sport about it and thought that it was a good joke.
