Something Positive for a Change

Well with my feeble mind taking a toll from previous tests and then brutally being thrown back into the gist of test taking, finally being able to go out and have some fun was indeed a stress reliever.  This past weekend I spent some time with my boyfriend Steven and our good friend Cody.  We visited a tattoo parlor called Element Tattoos so that Cody could get his first taste of his own tattoo.  It was quite the experience let me say.  Never had I ever stepped into a tattoo place before this one, and it was sure something.  Very colorful yet the vibrant scene was well balanced out by a couple of skull artifacts here and there, and some other random items collected throughout the years.  The people there were very great and understanding, and their artwork was indeed amazing.  I will give some props to Cody for not crying like a little girl.

Aside from the whole tattoo thing, work has been extremely fun as well, as weird as that may sound.  Work = fun when? I currently work at Six Flags, and despite the humid temps, and bolstering people the overall environment just gives me joy.  Even the staff that I work with are really nice and funny at times.  Even though I practically spiel the same lines all day towards eager guests waiting to get on the ride, I can’t help but smile because I’m having fun while doing it.  Everyday isn’t always like this, but so far this week it was.  And I’m glad, because having at least a little fun is much more better than having no fun.  Don’t you think so?

I’m Back!

Homework from Hell

For starters, yes I know it’s been a while.  I’ve been here and there and everywhere and yet God only gave me two hands, queue the saying: “I can only do two things at once.  I’ve only got two hands you know?”  At least that’s what my mother always said when I was little.  Although I really don’t know what I would do if I had more.  Oh the sight! 

Where to begin?  Well where else of course…school.  A tragedy, a downfall, a cruel and wicked thing school is.  I cannot even begin to express the amount of stress I am feeling at this exact moment.  I don’t know how I can go on feeling like this anymore.  The pile of homework is adding up, the tests are coming at me left and right.  I’m taking a full on beating.  But I shouldn’t lose hope. 

I’ve still got it made somewhere out there.  I know that once I’ve surpassed all of this…workload I’ll be on my way for sure.  To where of that I’m still unsure.  Wherever the path shall take me. 

I just wanted to take off this suit of confidence and expose my true weakness, my true self so to speak.  I think it’s okay doing it once and a while.  It’s kind of like crying when you’ve been pushed to you’re limit, and then recuperating after you’ve had an episode. 

Afterwards you feel so much better and you can probably take on the whole world if you could.  That’s the notion that I’m going for.  I’ll be 100% ready for anything that’s coming my way.  Definitely!!  Until then, I’ll just sit and mope.  :)

It shouldn’t be long till then though.
I’m glad to be back!

Bye Bye Mr. Banana

Mr. Banana has been in my life for only a few short months, but he will dearly be missed.  Today my roommate and I are officially cleaning out our room getting it ready for the day that we leave.  I remember the first day we met, it as the Rodeo carnival and I won him in a ball toss.  I will say Mr. Banana was a little creepy at times especially when you walked in and it was dark and there he was staring right back at you.  It gave me the willies.   But now we have to say goodbye because Mr. Banana is not going to go home with me.  Oh no!! Today Mr. Banana is going in the dumpster and I will say that he will truly be missed.

Almost There

Hmmm…let’s see well I’ve got only two and a half weeks of school left and it seems that they are just going oh so slowly by.  I don’t understand why.  I mean, I really do want it to go by fast so that I can just get out of here and have some fun, but then I don’t want my finals to come.  I only have to take three of them since I’ve already taken one.  It’s just a whole mix of emotions and it’s starting to boil over the edge.  I’m so close to finishing my freshman year that I can already taste the victory.  I can only say that “We’ll see where it goes from here.”  I just know that I’m almost there. Thank God!

Muffin Top

Okay, lately I’ve been getting lazy and when I get lazy I tend to eat every minute of the day.  I don’t know what it is, but I just see a bag of chips and I immediately shove them down my throat, and no later I eat two bowls of cereal.  I think it’s weird that I always eat, but I’m going to put a stop to it.  Since I’ve gotten so lazy I’ve decided that I need to hit the gym again.  So this week I’m going to go to the gym and work on the areas that need it most…well…like everything really.  But still, my mind is focused on eating not so much junk and working out.  It’s what my body needs.  I swear I see a muffin top forming and it doesn’t look pretty.  Not that muffin tops ever did look pretty…only on a muffin.  *Sigh*  Let’s hope I can stick with it.  The school year is almost to a close anyways…so until then I know I can do it!

We’re Back On

Geez Spring Break came and went.  Although my time was spent wisely and I ended up having a blast all week.  I went out, watched a crap load of movies, went to the mall, ate a lot, and I even had time to go fishing.  Oh by the way,  I caught this gigantic fish that was too big for me to carry, and also because it was slimy.  But overall my week was good.  I spent time with my family, friends, and boyfriend.  I admit, school was still floating in the back of my mind, I can’t help it.  Only a few more weeks of this and we hit the summer!!  I can not wait until that glorious day, so that I can say I passed my first  year in college.  That would be incredible.  But until then we’re back on track with the whole studying and learning.  Like I’m not smart enough?

                                                  Look at my big catch!!

Halfway Through

Well I’ve seemed to find myself backed up into the corner of a wall staring down my midterms.  They’ve arrived and coming next week is when I’ll begin the grueling process of taking them.  They aren’t as brutal as I used to think they were, but still, nobody likes to take a test…ever!!  Midterms also means that I’m halfway through my spring semester.  Hallelujah!  Following midterms is, yup you guessed it, Spring Break! It’ll be here soon and hopefully I’ll be able to bask in the glory of good grades and indulge in my free week of no school.  Not to mention that I have to get back into shape if I want a beach body. :)  A little workout here, some crunches over there, and less snacking and I’ll be good.  Plus I get a long week with my boyfriend and family, how much better can it get?  Well tonight I’m going to see Alice in Wonderland, I’ve been a fan since I was little.  So I’m really excited to the movie on the big screen.  Hope Tim Burton makes me proud.  Gotta love that guy! I’ll let you know how it goes.
