    I'm happy you're so impulsive, It means that you re passionate
    California was great! I love USC, it has a really pretty campus, spacious very paradise-y and cozy enough to walk around and get from place to place. All the people were really sweet, and helpful especially since I decided to do a lot of things on my own. I saw the USC Marching Band that were featured on the Grammys and Oscars!

    My interview went well, I think. They said about 60% of people get the full tuition scholarship! :) I sat in on an Public Policy in an Urban Setting class, which reminded me a lot of my high school sociology class. It was really interesting and somewhat laid back, open for discussion. Then I just laid on the lawn in the sun! But I got to go get some authentic Mexican food with my friend from JSA Stanford! woot!

    I love spending quality time with my cousin, she's amazing and amazingly human, which I tend to forget a lot. The Californian sunshine was amazing, it was high 60s and I got to wear my shorts! Awesome food: dimsum, crawfish, sushi, in n out & Ramone's wings yum!


    It was rough coming back though. Landed at 7am and crashed for six hours. Went back to school with a mountain of make up work that I haven't even gotten to because of my laziness/excitement for JCL Semi...

    DJ was terrible, no eye candy but it was nice to hang out with some friends :] I want to do it again! Tommy let me have two Rock Stars and a Starbucks Frapp for tonight woot!
    Ah, man this week is the last week of the term!

    Yay! :) and its twentyeight days!!

    from USA Today Tuesday February 9th :)

    i get sleepy reading about the roaring 1920s but am perfectly awake when i switch to sociology and learning about trading with rogue nations, poverty and women in power.

    all nighter for the rest of the week until my break :) i can sleep then, take naps with baby! and then lay in the californian sunshine.

    ah yes, motivation is in tact.

    My brother said that if I do the 365 Daily Photo Blog at least until my graduation then I'll get a new camera :) but I'll probably do it until at least next year. It's something I do anyways so might as well make use of it! Opportune timing though! Senior Spring Semester, Summer of my life, First College Semester! What a Year!

    I am not abandoning this blog but I will convert both or just switch over soon enough. For now this is for rambling and the other one is daily photo only :)

    Ugh I hate you laziness, procrastination, good TV, sleep, bed and wisdom tooth lol
    Currently, doing homework but SO tempted to just sleep and tell my history teacher but its inauguration! I am living history! :)

    Tuesdays are my new favorite day, because its the multiple of 7 that means a week closer to April 1st! I had a dream I was at admit weekend! And yesterday I was in a dorm! Oh baby I am hyped!! Plus I had an Iced White Chocolate Mocha lol.

    Do you remember when we didn't care?

    We were just two kids who took the moment when it was there.


    This month has been about confrontations, adaptations and truths.
    I've never been one to sleep with my head under the covers, until lately and its awesome! Especially this week it was sooo cold! I've discovered the wonders of making videos online! :) yay to rebuilding and embracing friendships.

    I'm caught somewhere in between a life and living a dream.
    -very low stress week, where i spent confronting my emotions and trying to make it be understood, exhausting to say the least.

    Wisdom tooth removal yesterday. ugh, i never want to go through that ever again. It hurts even if its numb theres just pressure and watching them use these intimidating tools..T_T i cried lol, and im sooo happy Rose was there to hold my hand or else I dont know what I would have done. sigh. so much for trying to be tough lol. It hurt like hell for the first couple hours, but I set up the bed in the living room with ice, ice cream and my remote control and watched Freaky Friday, Devil Wears Prada, and John Tucker Must Die lol.. <3 Rose

    But I am extremely angry. Because I thought it would hurt a LOT more but it doesnt!!!! I woke up this morning and I was like O_O ...it doesnt hurt. I stopped my entire life for this! I could have played volleyball, gone to my Brown interview, practiced with worship team, gone snowboarding!. But i guess it's a good thing because I can take a breather, collect myself and prepare myself.

    I wish I was in Washington preparing for the inauguration! Sigh T_T But there's going to be an Obama themed Day on Tuesday lol, and I am so looking forward to it! Yay! I smell a new era, but like the Herald says, the hype is becoming overwhelming and theres tons of pressure.

    All American Rejects have been my outlet this week. Yay! :) The entire CD is good! Sigh, and I want to learn how to play gravity by Sarah Bareilles on the piano!

    Restful weekend. Crazy Week Ahead. :) Head up High.



    Yeah I remember when we stole the night
    We'd lie awake but dream until the sun would wash the sky

    Breakdown. Broken.
    Blessed. Grateful. Motivated.


    At peace, finally.
    Again.
    Patience is a virtue.

    A million directions I could take
    which will i choose?
    Saturday: interview, Worship Team appreciation dinner, Worship Team practice, Prayer Night, Katherynne's Party
    I want to do it all, hopefully with the proper resources I can! :)

    Resources.
    I need to work with what I have, make the most out of every situation and be content with what I have.
    One of my challenges for the moment, the year.
