This week falls on ‘medium-high’ in terms of stress level.

Monday didn’t start off very well.. I went to school to print out my essay, but remembered that I didn’t send it to myself/have my USB on me.. so I had to run around trying to print off my essay to hand in. In the end we didn’t even need it. Then as class ended, I went searching for my keys.. and couldn’t find it. I looked EVERYWHERE for it, and was certain that I had brought it. I had left the apartment with it because I remember Chris coming over and me reaching for it to put in my bag. The rest of the day turned out to be really bad due to my missing keys. When I got home, the keys were hanging on my wall. the fuck?

Tuesday turned out to be alright. I had gone downtown with Caroline and her class to get fabric for form and space. The downtown fashion district is amazing! There are streets of markets that sell fabric and sewing materials. I ended up getting 3 types of materials, totaling 3 yards, for $5.28 There are stores that are entirely $1/yard.. plus bargaining! .

Thursday was another eventful day. For principles of design, we are now working in the computer lab in the morning, and then in the actual classroom in the afternoon. In the afternoon, we went to Staples to scan and have our collages printed and blown up to 36 x 36″ images. It was eventful because Michele did a collage of a peepee, and the peepee was blown up.

Thursday evening was the evening of busting ass off to finish essay night. I bet it was the same for everyone else in the class. The essay was for modern art history.. and.. wow, I had never done so much research for one damn paper before. I had read a whole novel on Renoir, 1 article, 1 short novel, and 1 picture/short novel book. It was the shittest essay ever.. but I got it done, at 2:30AM.

Today, Caroline and I went errand running after class.. it was lots of fun, and we met a nice guy at Staples.

Long.. week!! very long. I can’t even remember what has happened it’s been quite crazy lately.

Top news for me this week: 3.60 GPA = DEANS LIST. and $8500 scholarship next year + $1000 passport to education!

I handed in some projects.. others I haven’t. Essays due, and midterm was on Friday. We celebrated the end of the week and midterms with Chris & Rachel’s birthday last night. We had some cake in the apartment lounge, then headed to Hollywood to a club.  Before heading to the club, 6 of us girls went to the mall just to get food LOL you know it’s good mall food when we go there just for the food court. I got some Panda Express
The night was super fun.. and extremely spontaneous!

At the beginning of the night I was convinced by the pretty ladies to leave my jacket in the car, because the club was just down the block.. BIG MISTAKE! I froze to death the moment we got outside, and ended up buying a blazer at H&M. A supposedly $10 night turned out to be $40. Wonderful!… at least the blazer’s nice, right?

Here’s some stuff I’ve been working on!

I bought a ring last weekend from Wet Seal. Isn’t it beautiful? I love it.

Valentines Gift ^_^ Aren’t they adorable?

Hoo haa.. it’s only Tuesday and it feels as though it’s nearing the end of the week already. I handed in my 2nd essay draft yesterday for English.. and had an Illustrator Module for Drawing and Comp class. Today, Form and Space project was due. I wasn’t really satisfied with the outcome.. but in the end I got an A-, good enough!

3rd English paper is due next week.. joy to the world.

SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO FILE TAXES! I don’t want to get deported!

Form and Space.

“And for the briefest instant, it feels like we’re together again.”

I know, everyone’s probably getting annoyed at how much I talk about Dear John. I nagged my roommates probably a billion times about wanting to see this movie, the moment I saw the trailer. I can’t help but feel as if I have a deep connection with this story, every time I see the billboard on the freeway or hear about people talking about it.

I just finished reading the book. I knew I could have read the entire book in one sitting, but I wanted it to last. I didn’t want the book to end.. so I read it in single chapters. Unfortunately, I just finished reading the last chapters, unable to hold back.

This story is so.. bittersweet. I know that to some readers, it may be insignificant.. to others it may be a piece of shit.. but to me, it’s important, maybe because I can relate to it in some forms.

Not only is it a love story between a man and a woman, but about father and son. It’s about unconditional love.

Now.. I am ready to watch the movie.
