Revising and Apologizing

Ok quick update to my school schedule....My Latina Culture class is really interesting, my econ teacher is a really great teacher and I LOVE that class, and my accounting professor is challenging but hilarious! Turns out this might not be a bad quarter! So I am apologizing for my pre judgements on my professors and on this quarter!
Side note: Life in the Cosmos teacher is off her rocker and just as crazy as I thought she was!

Living La Vida Latina con Aliens!

So Monday I started Fall Quarter and let me just give you a quick rundown on my ever exiting new quarter:

My first class is Latin Culture, where I open the book to read "Living La Vida Latina." On the bright side the professor is really funny, and apart from not recognizing any significant historic Latin figures I think I will do okay. In other words I am currently living la vida latina!
My second class was Econ...picture a crazy old cat lady in man form....got it?...thats my teacher! He was so excited about Economics I was almost interested! :) Not to mention I am in a temporary portable classroom for that class, where just about ten people have to take up residence on the floor! Note to self "be on time."
Third, I had Life in the Cosmos. I was semi excited for this class...ok I'm lying I was semi enthused about this class until the first line of the syllabus read, "Have you ever thought about the existence of extra terrestrials?!" Wow, I am really going to learn about aliens! Not to mention the teacher look like a fortune teller with real long white hair, and she is a die hard science fiction fan! Shocker! So glad I spent $1600 on that class, I can see the significance it holds!
Fourth, I have accounting which is not too bad because its a continuation from the accounting class I has last quarter! Oh but wait.....the teacher barely speaks English!! He is the funniest little man you have ever heard...now if only we can just translate how to be accountants I will be golden.
My fifth class is tomorrow...so I have yet to be blessed with that one. It's genetics in society, so how bad can it be...right?!

Tonight I am going to open a bottle of wine and toast to Living La Vida Latina while watching E.T...when in Rome?!

Bringing in Twenty Ten!

Well it has been while since I blogged, and right now seems to be a good time to catch up. The holidays went by so fast, and this year I think the warm weather made it feel a little less "frightful," but my Christmas was definitely still delightful! I received way too many gifts, and ate way way way too much! I was thankful to be with all my family and friends for not only a great Christmas, but also a Happy New Year. On New Years my friends and I took a limo to the Brading Iron for a fun filled night of dancing and drinks! We has a great time...small mishap...but all in all we brought in the new year with a bang! One of my most relaxing hobbies is reading, and on my winter break I did just that. I read the entire Twilight Saga, and let me tell you how obsessed I am! I am team Edward all the way....(Team Jacob is OVERRATED!) And Reneesme is probably the coolest person in the world...well at least in my world! Putting my unhealthy teeny bopper obsession aside, one of my favorite books was Dear John. Wow, first of all tear jerker, second most romantic book ever! Nicholas Sparks is a romance God, and this one was no different! The way he brings out the meaning of true love is inspiring! It made me want to believe in true love more than ever! For those of you sappy girls and guys...read it! Its great, but you might want to put off the ending until after PMS time. (Grab Tissues!) Thats all for now...I am reading Mitch Albom's Have a Little Faith now...stay tuned for an elementary level review! :) I am off to my first day of school now....Bring it on 2010!

Soy...the other white meat!

One word....Tums! They are my everything...I live off them, and always carry them with me! I am deciding to give up all meat except seafood...and right before Thanksgiving am I totally insane? My sister's boyfriend told me if I could get through Thanksgiving I can get through anything! So, tomorrow will be my first day without meat...I already made a list of the food I am going to eat (can you say type A personality)

Oatmeal for Breakfast
PB and J and Fruit Snacks for Lunch
Lots of fruits and veggies for Snacks
Salad at Buffalo Wild Wings for Dinner

Wish me Luck!

The Future

The future....I guess its pretty close to being here! We always talked about what we "wanted to be when we grew up," and now it seems that time is here. College they say is about figuring out what you want to be....but my college life has been more about figuring out who I am. I started school with a boyfriend who I thought I was going to marry during school, and then WE would figure out my future. God pretty much laughed at that plan, and soon we were broken up. I went on a pretty fast downward spiral through the party scene, the frat/sorority life, lots of alcohol, some short relationships, and a few failed classes. I walked away from God, and wanted to take on my future by myself. When that plan failed miserable I moved back home, and like expected came home to a find a family with open arms as well as a God who never left my side. In these last two years at Cal State I really have found myself and who I want to be. As for my future I guess I have one more year to decide, but my new plan is to finish my degree in health care management, enjoy my wonderful boyfriend, friends, and family....and let Jesus take the wheel! Yes, I ended with a Carrie song :)

Sturbridge Crew

Friday night I went to downtown Fullerton to hang out with Alicia, and also got to see my old friend Rob. We went to dinner at Palapa's, where we spent the entire dinner catching up and reminiscing. We ordered a fishbowl...which serves 8 but we drank it with 3 (definitely caught up with us later). From there we moved on to the Tuscany Bar and danced the night away! As we were all dancing and laughing I couldn't help but think how much I love these friends I made when I went to school down there! Everybody always said there are so many more people that you will meet and never forget in college! It is all too true! I love you Alicia and Rob, and we had so much fun! Its so comforting to go out with people you know you will always be friends with! I can't believe its already been 4 years since we first starting college (all nervous and unsure) and finding support in each other! So here's to you Sturbridge Crew....what you put together no man tears apart!! Here's to another 4 years of friendship!

Second Times a Charm
