Study..whats that?

I don't think my brain is able to absorb anything more on Micro Economics. I think it has reached it max potential. For the last 2 days I have been making notes, reviewing my notes, reading the textbook like crazy, working out questions, highlighting, re-highlighting and I don't think there's anything left to cover. Its been a hard realization that I could get high b's and A's in highschool without cracking open my book. Now I really have to work. Everyone says University is hard. Its not really, you just have to put in the work. 

I went into my last midterm thinking i new everything and bombed it :S.
But I know for a fact that i wasn't as prepared as I am for this midterm right now.

So i'm sitting in the library looking at my notes then taking a break. Theres a guy at the table beside me sleeping looking at the ceiling with his mouth open. Its entertaining; wanted to take a picture for my picture of the day...but thats not really that nice of me is it.

Dolla dolla bills ya'll
















So the last few weeks have been busy. Boy, the first week of school in university is nothing like the first week of school in high school. Not that I expected it to be, but man alive! I think i did a total of 11 hours of homework for two classes last week. 8 of it for a "test" in marketing. Got to the class that morning fully prepared got my sheet; yes i said sheet as in one. It was only 10 minutes and 10 questions for the first 150 pages of the book. It's all good i aced it!

Tuesday morning i only have one class and it ends at 1 o'clock. So i spent the afternoon shopping cause i've been super frustrated with my wardrobe lately i used to love it but lately for this season i feel like i just want more for my creativity.
On today shopping list:
2 pairs shoes
umbrella
4 necklaces
2 cardigans
1 bandeau
and 1 blouse

I still need a few more things to complete my fall/winter wardrobe but until i can go actual back to school shopping with the bestie it will do. ps COSTAL RIDERS BLOW OUT AT THE END OF THE MONTH. Can you say fusia/teal (haven't decided which color i want yet)vans hightops and some sweet sweaters. i can.

Now I get to go spend the night with my favourites doing girly things :)

Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you, If you're young at heart



I'm a University student. I still can't really believe it. I still feel like i'm around 14 years old. Technically i'm an adult now..will I ever really feel like an adult. I'm feel like i'm waiting for this defineing moment to feel it, but does that ever really happen. You think something like first day of University would do it.







So enough about rambling about life, let me tell you about my first day of University. My first and only class was Into Art Foundations. This was the class I was the most nervous about. Not having much drawing experience I thought everyone was going to be experts. I get there bout a half an hour earlier than my class just so i have some time in case I get lost or miss the bus. I found a face a knew from orientation. So pleased that its the girl that also didn't succeed in admission to the interior design program, also pleased we have the same class! Phew, one familiar face. I walk in and few students are sitting in a laid out circle and the class slowly starts to fill up. Such a relief when the teacher walked in, introduced herself and the class. She explained that this class was very basic some people had never really drawn in their life. We started drawing right stat she walked around and gave us feedback, telling us exactly what we were doing wrong and what we needed to fix in a nice way. Then taught us habits and tricks to drawing what we were going to draw.
I think it's needless to say i'm really going to enjoy Tuesdays. On top of everything the people in the class all seem really nice, non stuck up i'm better than you types. One guy was so proud of his drawing he took a picture with his phone and sent it to his mom and friend he was super proud. He was kinda cute too.











The moment that you speak
I wanna go play hide-and-seek
I wanna go and bounce the moon
Just like a toy balloon

You and I, are just like a couple of tots
Running across a meadow
Picking up lots of forget-me-nots

You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung, and a wonderful fling to be flung

The "Real World"

So it's June. That time of year when school winds down, and the summer feelings start to pick up. Plans are made but most never followed. The beach towels and the bathing suits are brought out while the turtle necks and scarfs are put to the back of closets.
Every Monday Grad's are posting picture from their proms. All the pretty dresses, the limos. It's making me a tad nostalgic. Don't get me wrong I don't miss high school I guess I just miss school.
PS. I'm stoked to actually be going to college next year! YES!
I can't believe the fact that I have been graduated a year. Out in the real world so people call it. It doesn't even feel that different. I feel like I've been spending my whole life to prepare for this so called "real world." And this is it?

So this past year I have learned so much about myself it isn't even funny, yet sometime i feel like what i thought i learned didn't end up being true.
Contemplated getting promoted, to wanting to quit my job all together. I apparently can't decide if I love it or hate it.
Wanted to move out but just couldn't justify the finances, because my family situation is just unbearable.
I am doing things and in charge of things I didn't even think I would ever be involved in, proving just how much god is in control. But that's a whole other post altogether.
Found out who my real friends really are, no longer do you have to make small talk with the people you sit beside, or are in your high school "clique"
I got to find out who I can really do life with, and that I definitely love my bestest friends, and the people I have become much closer to. Here's the thing, when high school is over and done with you know the ones that count are the ones you still make an effort to stay in touch with.

Many people told me, "No, don't take the year off, you'll never go back to school. You're going to do nothing with your life."
Truth = This year was the best thing I have done for myself. No, I may be miserable at work at the moment, but hey school has always been easy for me, and i knew this wouldn't be. All of the above wouldn't have happened if I didn't. I wouldn't have been sure of everything I am of now. First and foremost, my relationship with god has grown tremendously. He has opened so many doors for me and given me so many experiences that the rest of my life will never be the same.

So I'm going to stop writing this essay now, pce.





Oh and now blogger isn't even letting me post pictures in my blogs, thnx alot!
