december...

can not believe it’s already december! it seems like just yesterday it was september and new classes were starting. it was football season. i was finally finished moving. then all the sudden it was halloween. and then thanksgiving was coming soon. then it came and went. and now…well, now its december & i can hardly believe it. but before i know it tomorrow will be new years eve…and then it will be 2011! ah!! but lets not get ahead of ourselves. lets take this month one day at a time. enjoy all the holiday spirit. all the yummy treats (which we are all sure to eat too many of!) all the time we get to spend with our families and friends. the much needed break from school. the sounds of christmas music everywhere. oh how i love christmas time.

hard work really does pay off...

recently i have been swamped, overwhelmed, and busy beyond belief…don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to complain. just simply stating a fact is all. Last week I worked almost 50 hours – which is a busy week by itself. On top of that add school. homework. midterms. friends. a social life. family. time to sit at read a book…wait…that doesn’t all fit – or so I’ve come to realize. its been crazy. i’m making myself sick. but its all paying off.


midterm last week…can you say 95%?! best grade in the entire class! two other test…A’s! so i guess every once in a while the hard work really does pay off. i’ve worked hard…but i’ve played harder!!!

as for my social life. its doing surprisingly well. i guess partly to the lack of sleep i’ve been getting (and probably why i’m getting sick) but…i’ve made some great new friends whom i love and adore! they are all absolutely amazing. even if we are just sitting watching tv, playing outside, or just having a friendly conversation…its always fun! they always make me smile. and life is good…no wait, its fantastic!

last, can i just say how much i love christmas and the month prior?! thanksgiving, food, family, SHOPPING, wrapping presents, baking yummy desserts, wearing scarf’s, decorating, christmas music, heck..christmas anything! i cannot wait!

seattle & gyros…

seattle…i love & and have loved for a long time. there is always so much to do. so much to see. and its just - well … amazing. just this week i rode up to seattle with my lovely friend chelsey…just to keep her company and have fun! for dinner we went and got gyros…and let me tell you how fantastic it was! i will definitely be having another soon! if you haven’t ever had one - please try one, you will fall in love!

this weekend is halloween. so off to seattle i go. with my ruby red slippers. some great friends. ready to have fun. ready to be crazy.

for now i am off to get my hair cut!

obsessed...

i absolutely adore Paris and want to go back very soon! apparently i am obsessed with Europe…maybe I need to take a month and travel…anyone want to join?? (:

italy...

let me start off by saying that I REALLY WANT TO GO TO ITALY!!! not for one specific reason, but for a million reasons!! It’s beautiful, I love Italian food, and there is so much history (okay, so I’ll be honest and say that I really don’t like history…but the old buildings are super neat!) and so many other reasons! so…someday (hopefully soon) I will go to Italy! how can you not want to go after seeing this picture of Venice?! it’s just absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
