Well let's see here I guess that last time I was on here was all the way back in February. Let me do a catch up since then. 

Finals came and I made the dean's list again. I am hoping that I will do my final best in this last semester and get a 4.0. Come on guys, cheer me on!! No skipping classes and shit....hah yeah right. 

Then my summer started and I took a lifeguarding class that was being given in my hometown for 1/3 of the normal price ($300 normal; $100 for meeee!!) So that was around May, because the grand opening was around my mother's birthday and Memorial Day. The class was like two weeks before opening so I only had a little time before I was thrown into working. It's only a part time job but I keep myself busy because I don't like to be home...with my mother...

So three big things I did this summer:
I went to the Bronx Zoo. I went with my two friends and their mom who wanted to drive us. It was nice, but you know it was just sad realizing how miserable and bored those animals are. You go there and they're all asleep which makes it no fun because you want them to be happy. My favorite animal that I saw was the snow leopard. OMG he was beautiful...or she. I don't even know, I just wanted to climb in there and cuddle, seriously. 


The second thing I did was go to Great Adventure in New Jersey. It was like a double date sort of thing. We only got to go on three rides but they were pretty good. We went on The Dark Knight, Nitro and Kingda Ka. The last one is the tallest, fastest roller coaster in Northern America. With a 425+ ft drop, going 128 mph. After we met my friend's boyfriend's mom. She was so funny, and super good looking. He hates when we call her a milf, but she really is. 

The last thing I did was going to a country music concert at the county fair. It was really good and I knew a good amount of songs. The performance was good and funny and it would have been perfect if we didn't have to leave before it was over. 

So that and working at the rec center and the other place called Spillian has pretty much been my summer. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've gotten a good amount of reading done this summer as well. 

I finished A Clash of Kings and started A Storm of Swords, and right about now I am halfway through it. 
Between it I read, The Lovely Bones and The World According to Garp. (R.I.P. Robin Williams)

My list of things to read keeps growing and growing and I don't have time to read everything. 

Here's a short list of what I still want/need to read:
A Feast for Crows
A Dance of Dragons
Divergent (trilogy)
The Hunger Games (trilogy)
The Vampire Lestat (Vampire Chronicles)
The Fault in Our Stars
The Prey
Deadeye Dick
Slaughterhouse Five
Catch-22

etc. etc. 


The more I read the more I want to write stories. I like writing short stories because I feel like it's a realistic goal for me and I am more compelled to finish writing it if I don't feel like it has to be long. 


Another good thing that's happened is I've been re-watching some anime I used to love. 
Robert, my boyfriend, and I started watching Samurai Champloo, Vampire Knight and Ouran High School Host Club. I want him to watch Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist, Code Geass, and Death Note. Hopefully after he watches all of those he will be more compelled to watch subbed anime. I remember when I never wanted to watch subbed anime, but once I broke through that wall, it was great because I could watch like every anime on the internet ever. 


Anyways, I will hopefully come up with some materials to post soon.

HELLO HOUSTON!

1 min read
Yesterday was crazy. So I live about 3 hours away from JFK airport and so I left my house very early in the morning so I could be at least two hours early for my flight. Anyways my flight was to leave at 5:15, it was 15 mins delayed because of a rainstorm in Chicago. 15 mins turned into 4 and a half hours. My flight didn't leave until almost 10pm. It was awful. 
Then when I got to Chicago I went to the bathroom and realized I had no time to get to the next gate and I sprinted there. By the time I got to the desk she said that she already closed the flight, but I was able to get on anyways. 

PHEW.

So now I am here till March 3rd. 
Woohoo!

Hello Texas, I am here!

So college is going well, I suppose.

Not really getting a lot of my work done, I'm kind of being laid back because I only have Tues/Thurs. classes. I really need to get out of the phase because when the semester really gets going I don't think I will be able to keep up with it.


I already have like two short essay things that I have to write and if I keep slacking off for my four days of the nothing that I do I will never be able to get any work done at all.

Enough about college let me tell you about what I'm planning to do over my February break.

So I am really mad at my sister because when I first mentioned bringing a friend with me she was like all aboard, all gung ho about it and then the other day I called her and asked her if she would be able to purchase the ticket so my friend could come with she was all like yeahhhh, no everything I had been planning didn't really involve four people. I was so mad. Like one day you tell me there's time to save up for her and then the next day you tell me yeah no not really, maybe another time.

I just don't understand why you can't be consistent.

The last thing she tells me before she lets me go off the phone was that she was going to sit down with her partner and discuss what the plans were for the week.

So again, you tell me that you've been planning stuff for just the three of us, but yet you haven't sat down and talked about it.

What's with your story sis. I just don't get it.

But anyways, yeah I'm going to Texas for that week. I mean I am excited but I would have been more excited if I was able to bring my friend with me. I don't know I just feel like spending a whole week with just me and my sister might make me want to fight with her. And I absolutely love the friend I was going to bring. This is what she would have needed too. It sucks her and I were both really bummed.

Well we all know Valentines Day is in a week (from tomorrow). I just wanted to kind of tell you guys what I got my boyfriend.

So I don't support his binge in trying to buy magic cards but you know what, it just gives me something to get him. So I went to Wal-Mart and bough him a Deck Builders box. It comes with 285 cards and for 20 bucks I don't think that's too bad especially on the account of that he was going to get a collection box for 20 bucks and only 250 cards because him and three other guys were gunna split it between themselves. And someone else offered to give me a 60 card deck for 10 bucks. I mean I could also get that in a package but whatever you know? I didn't buy the deck yet though because I don't know what colors we are going to run. I mean I want to run a deck of every color but we will ride that horse when the time comes.

---


So the friend that I am not going to be able to bring with me to Texas, her name is Abby.

I love her to death and we started watching American Horror Story together because I heard some good things about it. Like that show is so fucked up, omg. I love it though. It's totally our show now too.

I have to go now, I hope you all have a good day!!

Back To Class

The spring semester is here and in full swing! Already I am busy as fuck! I am officer of two clubs now: Treasurer of Campus Voice (the paper) and President of College Players (drama club). 

Woo!

I got a 3.75 gpa last semester too, so I'm doing pretty well.

Here's the list of classes that I'm taking also, not that anyone really cares... 
CITA-Intro to Application Software
GOV-World Affairs
GOV-Politics of Healthcare
CJUS- Intro to Criminal Justice
GOV- Civil Liberties 
HUM-Ethics

Besides the stupid fucking dumb mother fucker application software class they all seem pretty cool. 
The ethics class is just a mindfuck though. Seriously. If you want a class to blow your fucking brain, take ethics.

~NERD TIME~

So a lot of my buddies are into Magic the Gathering now. See now that I'm out of high school I'm not as in with the in crowd and my boyfriend is more. So we went over to our friends house and there was seven of us. So I let my boyfriend play because I'm nice like that and they did a pool so they were having a tournament style game. So I sat there for five hours while they played magic without me. Don't get me wrong, I love hanging out with them. But...like thanks guys. Tumblr on my phone is cool too. 

So I got back into playing my DS and I legitimately have 100 hours on Pokemon Soul Silver. I'm so lame. Life wasted! lol. 
Also I have Animal Crossing and I realized that I hate that game because it takes FOREVERRR, to pay off for your house and get it bigger. Like screw you Tom Nook, you fucking asshole mother fucker. Sorry for the cursing spree~

I believe I am also entering the Supernatural fandom. I started watching it when it came out in 2005 (when I was in 5th grade) but then I stopped watching it. My boyfriend started to watch it not too long ago to see what it was about and now we watch it together all the time. We just finished the fourth season and OHH MANNNNN, shit is going down. I was talking to one of my best friends and she told me shit only gets crazier...BLAHHH. I'm not sure if I want that to happen, I mean that's what makes it good right? I'm glad they're coming out with a tenth season though. And I'm glad I stopped watching it too. I like when I can just watch it all at one time and I don't have to wait week after week for an episode to come out. Like it must suck when stuff happens and then you can't wait till next week to see what they do about it. Next week comes and it's some random ass filler episode and you're sitting there like WTFFFFFFFFFFF.

I really need to get back to reading A Clash of Kings. I think about reading it and I know that I want to but...yeahhhhh, I'm lazy.

Life:

So, I drove out to this like Inn/Cafe place today about 15 minutes from my house and I applied for a job. I really hope I can get a job there because I don't have a lot of money right now and the job that I do have is only once a week and I get paid pretty good, but it's only once a week. Especially since they're not always doing too good on customers we might have to cut hours or pay. Not Good!
If I can't get a job there I'm not really sure where else to look. There's not much around here and then we start getting into the problem of how far it is to get there and if the distance weighs out the pay it's not worth it.

Thanks for reading this....if you read this. 
You're really dedicated. 
And cool. 
If you read this you are cool. 
(:
yea.

Happy Holidays!

I hope whoever celebrates Christmas had a really good one and got everything that they asked for. As for me, I didn't really get anything...not complaining, I mean the only thing that I really wanted was a guitar and I knew that no one would have enough money for that. Soooo yeah. 

I'm kind of bummed that I have to work on New Years Eve. Like I mean there are other things that I would rather be doing obviously but I can't complain about getting money either. I really need it. There's like nothing around here and it sucks. I used to have a job at this place that I really liked to work but they don't have enough hours for me and it sucks. I only work on Sundays now a days. I like that but it's really not enough money. 

Ugh growing up is so lame!

Which reminds me I really need to get an oil change in my car before it explodes. OH goddd. 

Okay. So anyways I'm at my boyfriends and we are going to have a video party so I should go. 

I hope everyone has a safe and fun new years. 

take care (:
