+ love everyone I see and help everyone that asks for help

+ surprise my boy on Friday

+ apply for more than 10 jobs

A month in Review

(Me and my nephew)

I am back!!! I have so much to share, but I don't really know where to begin. I just have to say that life has been great, I have been exploring and spending time with great people. And thanks to upgrading to an iphone 4s I have been documenting my life a lot more. In fact my instagram has been blowing up haha. But all this photo taking means more photos to share on my blog.

So I guess I will start off by saying that I am officially a college graduate. It still hasn't hit me yet, as I feel like I am just on summer break. But my grad weekend was incredibly stressful. My mom tends to stress out which stresses me out. My WHOLE family was able to come down which was great, but it was so hard coordinating so many people. On the other hand my family got to meet the boy and they approved of him which was great. I am so happy that my whole family was together again in one place and I am so grateful to have them in my life. I am forever thankful for their love and support throughout the years. I wouldn't have been able to do it without them. I also had a few friends drive down from LA to celebrate with me and I had a blast. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend with surrounded by the most beautiful family, friends, and boyfriend.

Other than that I have started summer and its been great! I actually have free time now that I don't have school, along with having days off work. And I can say that I officially crossed two things off my summer bucket list. One of them was to hike new trails, in which I hiked mt. woodson with a group of new friends. It was awesome bonding with new people on a 7 mile hike. It was freakin' brutal but I'm happy that I did it. We are actually planning on meeting up once a month now and hiking different trails around the county. The second thing I crossed off was: going to a nude beach! Yes, you heard me right. Well, I more so wanted to do anything nude (skinny dipping), but on a whim the co-workers decided to go. hahaha! An experience I will never forget. It was so funny that the boy enjoyed it and was running all over the beach naked playing soccer. Yay for actually marking things off my bucket list! So far summer has been great, and I am looking forward to more adventures and memories.

Dear Friends, I think its safe to say that I won't be around here much for the next three weeks or so. My lovely life is starting to fall together. I will be a college graduate in 18 days and as much as I have senioritis I know I need to bust my butt and finish strong with my last projects and finals. In between school I will be working and saving like crazy due to the fact that I will be responsible for supporting myself come June.  I have a job interview tomorrow that I hope goes well because that would help me out so much financially and help me get my foot in the door in the department I would like to work in (just a different position). My family will be down here soon and I can't wait to see them, especially my little niece and nephews who have a big place in my heart.  And my family gets to meet my amazing boyfriend. Lastly, I hope to savor these last few weeks with friends and just take it all in. This summer might just be the best ever if things come together as hoped for. See you all soon, and have a Happy May!
