week update

So it's been a century & a half since I've blogged, but it's because my week was jam-packed with all kinds a stuff. Here are a few of those things as follows:
I started school again at the wonderful campus (notice the sarcasm) of ASU. Surprisingly though, I love my classes, my schedule, and my teachers. Which = pretty much a miracle considering how late I signed up for classes.
(The pictures totally don't even capture the ginormous-ness of ASU but I looked like a freak taking pictures, so 2 was my max.)I rediscovered the joy of doing homework.
I decided that to help with this I was going to actually use the scheduler that comes with my phone, & let me tell you, I'm in love. I got all 5 hours of my math homework done THREE (ya baby, I said three) whole days before it was due. Go me. I made it a goal to actually USE all of my learning potential, considering I haven't in, uh, ever. I'm actually READING the textbooks, & it's not the day before the test. I'm kinda in shock.I put on the ol' dancing shoes once again & danced like crazy in my kitchen. It was mucho mucho fun. I just wish I could still do three pirouettes in a row without losing balance at all. Ahh, someday. I finally got camera batteries (yaaaa!) So I could delight you with these here pictures & once again take millions of pointless pictures of myself that always look like poop.

So add hanging out with friends I haven't seen in forever, goin to the cousins' to watch Bourne movies, goin on a date, & eating myself to death (seriously, I could have fed an entire third world country with everything I ate this weekend) and you've got basically what I've been up to this past week! I'll probably be back to postin next sunday, updating you with the adventures this week holds!

adios, yos

one of my obsessions

More than I can express. One day I discovered how to download them, & it was the happiest day of my life. I was freaking out for hours cuz I was so excited & in love with the fonts I found, & my family thought I won the lottery or something. Just looking at them make me so happy inside. I don't know what it is, but there's something about certain fonts & handwriting that just makes me so....happy! which reminds me, does anyone know how to use cool fonts with blogger? I've tried, I just can't figure it out. here are some examples of awesome fonts:

I could go on, but Paint has a very limited number of colors that go together & I can't repeat any, so that'll have to do for now. Plus, it's past my bedtime. This took friggin forever, so I hope you enjoyed! If you want to know the names of them I'll get back to you...cuz I don't remember right now.
adios.

my life right now in a nutshell

Since my last post, in relation to stress, I've gone three steps forward & 2 steps back. But hey, that's one step forward! I decided my major is going to be Finance, since even if I don't use it at least I'll know more about money, and it leads to jobs I would actually like. I also decided that since I was torn between a more logical degree or a more creative one, I'm going to buy a semi-nice camera and take photo classes, since I've always wanted to. That way I can have the best of both sides. I also was able to sign up for all of my classes, & since accounting & finance are similar in the beginning I only had to change one class! It's actually kinda crazy how nice it worked out, even though while it was happening it was NOT working out nice. So now I'm ready for school & a load has been lifted off my mind!

Which brings me to the 2 steps back. Well, I'll start off by saying I do some really unintelligent things sometimes. Like deciding to wash my car during the hottest part of the day. To me it was just a convenient time, & I thought hey, I'll get a tan while I'm at it. Well, despite the conveniences, it is NOT worth the inconvenience that comes with it. Like, spraying your car with cold water onto the very hot glass and causing it to crack. I didn't even know I cracked it until I was done cleaning it. So now I have to get it replaced. Another thing I have to do now is find a new job. My schedule at school takes up most of the day, which means I have to trade my day job for one that is later at night :(. I knew it was coming but I guess I just didn't think about it much. So that's the update on my life. Sorry it's pretty dull. & sorry about the lack of pictures, but every single AA battery in my house isn't charged enough to make my camera work :( :(

ughness

School = Hate right now.
I'm stressing out MAJORLY about my major (ha I totally didn't even mean to do that). I thought I was happy about deciding on accounting, but it turns out I'm wrong. I just don't feel right about it & when I think about starting school again I wanna crawl into a hole & never come out again.
So then I looked at every single major available, and like, only one sounds good. Which is psychology/family & human development. Which equals pretty much no direct job opportunities unless I get a masters which I most DEF. am not doing. Oh & on top of that, I looked to see about changing my classes, & pretty much ALL of them are full, except for like the 4-5:30 ones. I'm majorly majorly stressing out. You have no idea. & I don't really have time to figure it all out cuz I'm always working & then when I get home it's too late to talk to an advisor at ASU. I'm kinda freaking out here!!!
Anyway. Those are my troubles at the moment. The sooner the next three years of my life are over, the better. Ugh.

i'm baaaaaaaaaack

Ok, So I'm finally here again to finish my random seven things!! I've been quite busy so I haven't been able to do it. I'm sure you all have been dying to find out the rest (ha jk). Well, here are 5-7! Woohoo!

Numero CINCO:
I am completely afraid of yellow lights. It's ridiculous. Like, forillo. One time I got a photo radar ticket cuz I BARELY (I still swear it was still yellow) ran a red light while turning left. The only reason I did it was cuz I'd already waited like 2 whole lights cuz there were so many cars and I was late for institute. I was able to get out of it with a (very expensive) class so it's not on my record, but now I have to go 2 whole years without a ticket! So I'm EXTREMELY paranoid. If I see the little hand flashing I'm like, when is it gonna turn yellow? Am I close enough so if it turns yellow I'll make it? Please don't turn yellow! And I'm so bad that I could make it through but for a SECOND I'm not sure so I slam on my brakes, usually resulting in partially hanging in the intersection. I get SOOO mad at myself when I do that too. It's like a disease! Anyway, enough rambling about my fear of yellow lights.

Numero SEIS:
I'm in love with So You Think You Can Dance. Just knowing that it will be on brightens up my day. And the good news is that it's on TWICE a week! Yay! That's double the fun! It's pretty much the only show I watch these days. I love it.

And last but not least....Numero SIETE:
I can never have too much Dr. Pepper. Ok, maybe I can, but it'd take a lot. It's a delectable drink that makes me happy with every gulp. It makes me sad that it's so bad for me, but when I do drink it it's a lovely treat. That's all I have to say!
Adios
P.S. I'd tag someone but everyone that reads this has already been tagged!
