Winter Break

I cannot wait for winter break. I just had to write at least one more post before the week ends. I realized that finals are actually here, and once I'm done with them, that's it for these classes. How sad. I'll miss everyone for sure. I definitely liked the whole clicker thing in our class when we were answering questions with the clickers. Or the debate on marijuana! It was fun while it lasted. But I just can't wait until Christmas! It's so exciting. I hope everyone has a great break, because I know I will. Winter Term, here I come!

How was my semester?

This semester wasn't bad at all actually. I've been so busy with work and school, and I hardly have time for my friends. In the end it's all good. My friends have lots of drama anyway, and I hate getting into it, so I try to avoid it as best as I can. I love when my boyfriend visits, so that makes me happy. When I have family time, that's good too. I guess when you're taken away from the things you love, it's nice to miss it sometimes. Then when you finally get it back, you enjoy it so much more. I've been trying hard in school, but as of late I've been getting sick more and more, and working more and more. It gets kind of hectic at times, but I manage. Over all this semester has been great. A really good start for my first time in college. No complains whatsoever. I feel like I've improved in English because every lab that I did with these high scores got me really happy. Professor Alessandri is a wonderful teacher, and I definitely recommend her to everyone. She's very sweet and accepting, and will help you with absolutely anything. I've learned quite a bit in her class. Now I just wait for winter term. I wonder how much different that will be. I hope everyone had a good fall term. It's been a good year so far.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am very thankful for my family, my friends, my dogs, and just about everything I own and have. I am very lucky to have a home and to be living peacefully. There are stresses here and there, but everyone has those. It's nothing new. I'm glad that I have wonderful parents to take care of me and provide for me. I have great friends that keep me happy and are there for me whenever I need them. I am very thankful for my boyfriend Manny because this thanksgiving I spent it with his family. My mom was working and my dad was in New York for a little bit. I thank his family for allowing me to spend it with them, and it was so nice of them to welcome me. They're very sweet and of course I can't thank them enough. I appreciate just about everything I have in my life. There is no way I am going to live one second and not appreciate everything I have because one minute I could have everything, and another minute I could lose everything. So it's better to acknowledge everything and everyone now before it's too late. I am very thankful for my life and that I'm still here to live it.

Santa's Enchanted Forest

I went with 3 of my friends, Kelly, Veronica, and Liz. It was really fun, and it would be my second time going. Some of the stuff they have is a little freaky, but the lights are beautiful. The smell of food, the sounds of people laughing and talking. Overall it was fun. Full night of just fun and rides. It's always packed. The rides are so much fun. Some are a little scary because if you think about it, they put these rides back in trucks and just travel around, for years! Who knows how old and rusty those rides may be. I don't know. I guess I shouldn't think too much about that cause then I won't enjoy myself. There was one part of the night that was really funny. We were in line waiting for a ride, and this lady out of nowhere walks up to us demanding her spot in front of us back. She was never in front of us. In fact, she was sitting on a bench waiting for the line to move. It wasn't our fault that she became lazy, sat down, and lost her spot. It just amazes me that someone could have the energy to fight with kids because of a spot in line, especially at a children's place. This was an adult giving attitude, and swearing at us, calling us stupid, and threatening us. We just laughed in her face, letting her be angry. It was pretty funny because of how much time and energy she wasted. With all that anger and energy built inside, she should have used it to stand up and stay in line. Oh well.

Goodbye My Almost Blubber

Yeah I know, the subject is clever. There's a song from A Fine Frenzy called Goodbye My Almost Lover, and I just made fun of it I guess, even though I love that song. Anyway, back to my point.

I've come to realize that I eat a lot. Especially out at fast food restaurants. I love food so much. Sometimes I think I'm hungry when I'm really not. Or when I'm really bored, I try to find something to eat. Believe it or not, I'm eating right now as I type this. My grandma asked me if I wanted to eat, and my answer was an automatic yes. I think I need to start working out more. LA fitness is not too far from here. I should really take advantage of any free time I have and go to the gym. I mean, I'm not that big or obese, but it worries me sometimes that I may be eating way too much. Sometimes I find myself eating bigger meals than my boyfriend. It's crazy. I love mcdonalds so much, it's my favorite fast food place. I love Big Macs! I think I've eaten way too many though. I don't think I'll ever stop even if I tried. I feel bad for any vegetarians. They're missing out!

Overwhelming Fear

A moment in my life when I felt an overwhelming fear was when I came home from school one day, and saw that one of my kitchen windows were broken. Instantly I thought that my house was broken into and that there could be someone still inside. I have never felt so scared in my life. I was by myself because both my parents were working, and I just didn't know what to do. I called my parents right away and they told me to calm down and just leave it the way it was. I didn't go upstairs and I was too afraid to walk around anywhere. I sat on my couch with this huge fear that someone could be upstairs hiding or waiting. Police came, and everything was calm again. I began to cry because anything could have happened. When my parents checked upstairs, the drawers were actually out and the clothes were everywhere. Someone must have been up there looking for something. It was scary, but mainly I was safe, and that's all that mattered at that point. It was really scary for me, only because I didn't know exactly what to do if someone actually was inside. Nothing like that has happened again at my house, so I'm fine now. Again, I don't understand some people and their ways of doing things. It just makes the world look bad.

Lady Gaga

I absolutely adore Lady Gaga for her expression in art and pop culture. She defines an artist in my eyes. I love her style and her mindset towards everything. She became really famous, really fast and it still amazes me how far she got in a little amount of time. She's very unique and she knows exactly how to get a crowd's attention. She's weird at times, but hey, what to do to get publicity right? That's what the celebrity life is like. She's great. Her music is catchy, and she actually sings really well live. This is my favorite video of her. She looks stunning. I want my hair to be just like hers, except not blonde!
