Sundayyy

This weekend was filled with productivity and fun. I feel like its way too much to write about, but I can sum it up; Basketball game, going out with the friends, falling asleep to the goonies, ballet, meetings, studying. Whew! And I am now going to spend the remainder of my sunday locked in my room studying. How exciting, right?

I do have exciting news though. So I decided to sell my books to amazon through their trade-in option. These books have been sitting in my room collecting dust because the bookstore at my school refuses to buy them back from me. I ended up shipping amazon 5 textbooks and ended up making $130 in amazon credit. Suhhhweet! I'm obviously going to treat myself to something nice and I think I'm going to buy my mom and dad a joint gift of somehow. But there are some things I have been lusting over by betsey johnson...

You just gotta ignite the light

I shouldn't be updating right now, but I don't know when is the next time I will be able to as I have so very much on my plate at this moment. Second week of school, and already feeling the pressure :/ I NEED to get everything in order, but other than that I'm still feeling very very happy. Here are some happenings/ideas/things from the last few days:

1. Started volunteering at the local library tutoring little kids and helping them with their homework. Its only once a week so its very manageable, and I actually have a lot of fun doing it. I hope to keep it up through the summer :)
2. Running and hiking are making me feel so good. But I need to start running more to get ready for the mudrun. I want to be able to run 2.5 miles by the end of February. I think I can do it :)
3. Big Basketball game tonight for our school. I think I might go to the local bar to watch it.
4. I NEED to start saving money. I need to get a passport and I have a $700 course to pay for this summer. So less going out, and less money spending when going out.
5. I also need to learn how to manage my time better. REALLY!

Cruisin' it

I'm going on a cruise with my friends at the end of march! So very excited and blessed :)

weekend

Last night I decided to be a good kid and stay in. I ended up having a great time with the roomies as we watched chick flicks. Tonight will be spent out doing a bar crawl for a friends birthday. I really feel like 2011 is bringing me so much change and progress. January hasn't even ended but I've completed a lot of my goals or have been sticking to them. I just feel more wise & more productive, and most importantly so very happy :)

Today, I took my first ballet class! It was great. Sure, I was lost most of the time and screwed up some of the steps. But my teacher was so nice, helpful, and encouraging. And most of all I had a lot of fun. It was only $9.00 for the class and I definitely look forward to going back next weekend and hopefully the rest of my time down here.

I'm going to eat and then dive into the books until its time to go out. Have  a great weekend!

New Hair

So one of my resolutions this year was to have amazing hair. Some of you ladies are blessed to have hair you can work with. Mine is constantly a problem, hard to manage, never grows, breaks off easily, etc! So I did something drastic last night......I got extensions! I like them a lot although its seriously taking some getting used to. They are sewn into hair that is braided onto my scalp. So basically having braids underneath feels like I'm sleeping on something all night. Hah! And straightening out the excess hair this morning took a little longer than expected. But I'm sure its all a matter of getting used to, and they should last me 3 months. So hard to imagine that I will keep these babies in till the end of April---basically the whole semester right there. Oh and I also got 'feather extensions' which is the new trendy thing in so cal right now :)

School has been decent so far. Looks like its going to be another tough semester! Thank the lord I am not working this semester. It would be pretty unbearable. I still have books to buy and lots of errands to complete this weekend. But I'll dedicate a post soon to the first week of school. Have a great weekend!

I just want to daaannnccee

Lately my life has been filled with lots of dancing and good times with friends. I honestly love my friends so much, and appreciate that they are just as crazy as I am. I never fail to have a good time with them :) I am in love with this david guetta ft. rhianna song. Makes me want to dance even more!

Last day to get my errands under control as school starts tomorrow. Eeek! Winter break where did you go? You were so so good to me this year and I had a blast. I'll never forget it! Today I have some things to take care of and then maybe I can squeeze in some shopping. I keep wearing the same shirts over again. I think I need some new tops. Just maybe haha.
