So here I am with an almost recovered voice and no will to do anything useful with the free time I've had lately. Long-ass recap ( Read more... )

Phone conversation with my stepdad on choosing a boyfriend:

Steve: "You should only choose to date rich men from now on."

Me: "I thought you said I should only date good looking guys."

S: "Well honey, looks fade but money compounds."

LOL!!! XD

So, I just found out yesterday that Dan is going to be in town for 10 days next week. I'm not sure how to feel about that. Sure, we're dear friends and it will be good to see him after almost a year, but I can't shake the odd feeling that it will be ackward being that I was pretty much in love with this man for the last 3 years, and this time when ( Read more... )

Sadly, I've just learned that my former teacher and mentor, Mrs. Kathy Finch, passed away this morning. For several years she was battling a rare cancer of the blood, and had undergone multiple operations ( Read more... )

One of the guys in IT had an interesting point. He said in college, if you're in a serious relationship, your GPA goes down .5 points. More so if you get into a fight with your significant other. I guess some of his friends did a study on this in college and that's what they found out. I thought it was funny, but the correlation is very plausible ( Read more... )

Convo between me and my lil sis in NY:

Sis: "I'm in trouble."

Me: "Why what's up?"

S: "I see a really cute shirt."

M: "Then get it."

S: "But I'm on 5th Ave."

M: "GET THE HELL OUTTA THERE!!"

Who do you think helps pay her credit card bill?!?! XD

I feel like I'm having an out of body experience...that has lasted for about 2 weeks. School's almost finished for the quarter and my head feels like it's in a vice. What's been a blessing are my two study buddies, Raquel and Miriam. What's really neat about college now is that there's more chances that the people I'm in class with now will be in ( Read more... )

I find it so hilarious yet not surprising that with my luck, I'd turn 21 on a MONDAY. That's okay though. I didn't have any wild/crazy plans like everyone's anticipating. That's for Friday ( Read more... )

My aunt just emailed me this. I can't believe that this is happening. I talked with him New Year's Eve and made plans to visit him at Basic, but he was busy at the bar when I got there. How careless of me to think that I could wait until the next time I was in San Diego. It's hard to say goodbye to someone you were just starting to get really close ( Read more... )

Well, this holiday season was definitely interesting. I've made it blatantly clear to many that Christmas is not my favorite holiday, only because under the idea of spending time with family and friends like Thanksgiving, there is a requirement of gift giving which sometimes leads to hysteria and explosive attitudes amongst shoppers. God Bless ( Read more... )
