Estoy sufriendo muchas presiones!

That means "I'm friggin stressed out" in Spanish! Haha. Seriously though, I really am.

WOW, I haven't been here in SO long! I've been so caught up with school, work and lacrosse that I don't really make time for anything else. I try as much as I can to stay in touch with my best friends and the rest of the world, but I guess it's always been this way for me to have something to do every second of my day. This semester is nothing but stressful. I feel like we just started school, and I already have so much to do! Only because that is exactly the case! Ok, maybe it didn't JUST start, but it is FAR from over and I have plenty of studying and homework-ing to do.

Anyways, it's Saturday night and I'm home because I'm tired and stressed out with school. I had a really fun morning though! We had a fun day at the beach and played some soccer and volleyball in place of Saturday morning practice. (: Then a handful of us went to Hodad's for lunch. YUM.

Well, I started studying a couple hours ago and got sidetracked by this whole pre-med program mess. I just reread the packet for the pre-med requirement and what not and it just reminded me why I'm so stressed! On top of being a Bio major, I have a full list of OTHER classes I need to complete before I graduate. Then I started planning out the rest of my years at State. I'm basically taking at least 16 units for the rest of my semesters including a full load in the summer.

It makes me really think about playing lacrosse for the next 2 years. There are so many pros and cons about being part of this team. It is VERY time consuming and you have to be very dedicated to school and lacrosse which can get stressful. But honestly, how many pre-med students applying to med school are a part of an organization outside of professional health? And to top it off, I just read the section in this premed packet under "Other Activities" that says "Many personal interests have nothing to do with medical aspirations; however they are reflections of you and help you maintain your individuality and balance. These activities are important to both you and the admissions committtees. Space is provided on applications to describe your interests and activities." This also gives me something ELSE to write about in my personal statements rather than my experience volunteering in a hospital for a semester. This also gives a little excuse for my GPA being under the 3.7 I need to get in to a medical school. Holy crap.

I guess I just need to learn to be more focused in everything I do. Life is just getting a little more serious and future is seeming to be closer and closer!

Hmm, well as for the rest of my weekend I have an endless list of things to do:
1. write out my bio notes
2. study for my bio quiz
3. study for my bio test
4. read for bio stats
5. fix/update my resume
6. apply for the Children's Center on campus
7. work &church on Sunday.

then I have to figure out somewhere to squeeze sleep in! AHHHH!




On a lighter note, it's the season of Lent! This year I gave up a few things:
1. doing makeup in my car while driving
2. answering my phone/texting in my car while driving
3. limiting myself to ONE pair of Steve Madden's
4. no coffee!


That should save me from potential car accidents and money for Sonjya's Disneyland weekend adventure and for Trina's upcoming birthday after that!

I need to be better about writing more often in here too. It gets my mind off things and keeping a diary/journal was strongly recommended by the pre-med advisor.

Alrightttttt, well I really should be studying for bio now.

last stretch!

so, it's FINALLY december! that means a lot of things.
1. more hours at work
2. brokeness!
3. finals are soon
4. i'm stressed out because of 1-3!

there are so many things on my mind that i can't seem to focus on just ONE. i have to take care of my payments and fees for next semester before i can register. i have to figure out my availability for the this month and next for work. i have to pick my classes for the spring. and i have to figure out what i'm going to do workwise in the spring! i want to leave abercrombie so bad. and i want to keep steve madden even moreeee! but i don't know if either will happen. i feel like next semester is going to be SO crazy that work is the last thing i want to think about. i have so many plans for myself that it leaves me no time for anything else! i'm taking a full load of classes, then practice everyday, and i have to work, and i want to ref. WHAT am i going to do. );

ugh, anyways.. on a lighter note.. today is going to be SOOO fun! i'm gunna hang out with quade later today. we're gunna make dinner and possibly go shopping! then meet up with noa and fanelli and go out tonight! yay! all of this after class, the arc, and the sport club meeting that is.

ahh, i have a long day ahead of me still. actually, a long week. i guess you can say a long MONTH. akhdfkajh. here we go! hopefully i find some way to hang in there.

last night was relaxing, i didn't do ANY homework or studying. i just gave the day to myself. i watched the holiday and baked cookies and was on facebook the whole night! haha, yay! i feel the end of the semester coming, that's why.

well, i guess it's time to put my stressed face back on again, i have bio lab in 10 minutes. byeeeee! <3

saturday.

seriously, why is the first sentence always so hard to write in this thing? i never know where to start, maybe i should just update this thing more.. then i wouldn't have so many problems.

anyways, it's saturday afternoon.. and i'm home doing NOTHING productive. why?
1. because i'm sick
2. i have no voice because i'm sick
3. i texted my managers this morning that i couldn't come in because i have no voice.. because i'm sick
AND
4. my throat hurts like someone socked me in my sleep

sweet deal! NOT.


sad, i really enjoy working at steve madden. it's so fun and the people i work with are awesome. customers can get a little ridiculous sometimes.. but there are so many sweet incentives inbetween that make it ALL worthwhile. i wanted to go in just because.. but i'd have to be whispering to everyone! i'm guessing that my plan wouldn't quite work out. i hope i get to keep this job, it's so effing cool. and that means i would quit abercrombie! but that'll be the day.



hmm, i've had a crazyyyy week. this 3 job thing is kinda cool. its like i work full time. but not really! haha! you know what else is kinda cool? on tuesday, i hit a fckin 08 audi a6! a black one! FUCK! ); luckily it was VERY minor. we just exchanged paint jobs.. and a little stratches. no dents or permanent bruises. chinese ladies are crazy. or maybe just her. i would be too though if i was driving that car. sheesh. another pat on the back for drea. SCORE!

my thanksgiving lunch was sweet. it was different from all the other years. i'm used to going over to irene and vincent's, but we had our shindig at terri and ed's house. the whole gang was there and sonjya joined in too! that was fun. (:

killing time before shopping was kinda hard because there was NOTHING to do, but we made it through the rest of the day and black friday probably could not have been any better! well, except that trina was the only one not with us. ); my sister came with though! we left at the PERFECT time. literally. we all met up and drove over to joy's around 10:30. parked right near nike and our adventure started! the nike store along with a few other stores were already open. it was pretty sweet i must say. and UNlike last year, sales were ridiculously awesome! haha, really though. we finished around 4ish. and then i remembered about work at 8! wooooo!

so we all got home, and i showered.. got ready for work.. dropped off sonjya.. and drove to the mall and got there at like 515? i parked in a sweeeet spot.. reclined my chair and all i remember doing was setting my alarm. i really don't remember the drive to fashion, my body was already asleep. haha. scary. that probably wasn't the safest thing i've ever done. but neither was hitting a car. LOL.

well, i woke up literally 2 minutes before my alarm went off.. and my voice was gone! WTFFF! literally OVERNIGHT. so i went to work and greeted customers with a beastly voice. but luckily i made it through the day. got off at 3, and continued the shopping adventure with mcquade! yay! we had a very productive day.. and ended it with CPK. yummmm. i was pretty annoyed on my break though, because of a certain incident that occured. i'll just leave it at that.

anywho! i'm about to go eat some pho so i'll catch ya next time! i hope everyone had/is having a good weekend. don't call me.. unless you like when people reject your calls. my voice is literally DUNZO and gone. text me though and i'll gladly answer! talk it up for me because i can't at all. );


hasta luego!

i hate you, o-chem!

so i dedicated my last week to ochem, just to bomb the test today (along with the rest of the class). except for the chem geniuses. EW! i thought i had everything down, but apparently notttt. we'll see what happens come finals week! not excited.


what i AM excited for is thanksgiving! and black friday! DUH! i'm gunna go broke within the next 3 days.. but it's all gooood. black friday only happens once a year. i think that's a legit enough excuse in itself. i'll be making some SWEET dinero this week anyways. TLE, steve madden, &abercrombie! minus my phone bill, christmas presents, and gas to get me everywhere in between. whatever! 'tis the season to be BROKE! well, at least in my world it is.

it's 11:45 pm and i'm wide awake because my body isn't used to sleeping early. it's the daily late night studying that made my body this way so don't think i don't appreciate my sleep. haha. another weird thing is that i'm home! cause i never am! ever! once again, i always have studying to do. i mean, don't get me wrong.. it's awesome to finally have a break from the books.. it's just different for once!



hmm, my weekend was AWESOME. friday was spent at lips for isabelle's birthdayyy! that was fun! we all lost our Lips virginity together! haha. we paid $10 bucks for VIP seating and it wasn't even VIP! except for the fact that we were higher than everyone else.. and we got to sit on the cutest couches ever! i want one! saturday was a WAY different story. football games are always cold &lame.. but AFTERWARDS was definately worth the crazy anticipation we all had all week. black &white was THEEEEE shit. seriously. i don't remember half of the night, but i DO know that it was soooo fun and everything we've been talking about since last year's black &white! half of us ended up throwing up what our bodies decided to not hold down any longer.. and there were hang overs ALL over the place.. but it was all worth it. HA, shoulda known better! heather, i hope you're ok! ); sunday was a big recovery day for me.. physically, and o-chemically. haha. ya, i spent my day at the living room jamming those damn reactions in my brain.

alright.. well, i just finished my cup of green tea, checking my facebook, and making my new cd. and my mom is starting to ask me to do things so i think i'd rather go upstairs and attempt to clean my room.. or just go to bed. either way, i got class at 8! and then work!

please week, be over already! thanksgiving seems TOO far away. which means friday is even FARTHER!

goodnight! (:

research paper!

YAY I'M OFFICIALLY DONE! finally. hahaaaa. i've been working on that stupid thing since saturday. it's really interesting though. it's on personal love maps! its pretty much how we develop as a kid.. which makes up what we want in our ideal partner! insane huh?!

hmm, i had a good weekend. we won our championship volleyball game yesterday! i love those girls. i don't know what i would do without them!

thank goodness i was actually interested in my topic of research.. because i wasn't motivated to work on my paper even yesterday night, knowing that it is due today! haha! i just went to bed and decided my paper will get done in the morning. and sure enough it did!

anyways, we have our first lacrosse scrimmage today at ucsd! i'm so excited! practice every week with no purpose was starting to kill me softly. geeeeez. well, they're going to get smashed. HA. enough said.

pray for those that live near the wild fires up past irvine and north of there.. they were doing the same for us when it was in san diego!

well, sothiya just called me! time for chem lab! );

adios amigos!
