Here's to my beginning of my winter quarter.

Well, winter quarter. You know, my second session of college. So far, I've definitely got a whole new outlook on certain things. So many things have already happened within my life and I don't know what to make of it all but rather, just to accept them and deal with them both good and bad events.

1. So I just got back from Bakersfield for Lucky's reunion. I left Wednesday afternoon and got back thursday morning. CRAZY drive and I'm extremely tired because I've had class from 9:15am to 7pm and I went to Irvine for Kababayan's 1st general meeting. I barely got back in at like 12 midnight. But anyway, after my dog dying, it was like my family was brought together even more. My dog really did bring luck to my family and it seems as though my entire family was ready to let him go. We really became happier because we didn't have to worry about him being sick or cold or anything. We all loved him.

2. I'm trying to get into a class while at the same time I'm debating on whether or not I should take the Spanish Challenge test. I feel confident and all, but I'm a little shaky on my Spanish. I'm stressing out from having to add the class where I don't have permission numbers, and the last day is tomorrow. I'm just extremely stressed out on studying for the spanish test and for trying to get the class. Blegh.

3. I'm getting to know someone! [: It's a nice feeling. No lie. Things are going slow as it should, but not slow enough to just pass by without a thought. I haven't forgotten about "it" but I feel as though something good is happening to me for once with this situation of mine. I don't know. It's weird but cool. Hahah. This little deal is helping me cope with my stresses of other stuff so I'm thankful for this someone. [:

4. My classes are so effing hard. Well, just one of them. There's so much to do and so much to study and it just seems like it's never ending! Not only that, but I feel like I'm wasting my college career. I feel as though I'm not doing anything right or that I'm not taking the right things. I feel so...crazy stressed like I won't do well for my future. I feel like changing majors because for some reason, it doesn't feel like this is for me. I don't know...I really need to pray about this.

5. I'm lacking so much sleep. I haven't sleep well for like the past few weeks. I don't know why. I really should start sleeping super early and relax a little bit to be able to catch up on sleep so I won't be complaining all the time or anything like that. BLEGH!

Well, I hate sounding like I'm always complaining. But I felt as though this was a need to relieve stress and sort out everything that I'm trying to deal with. Oh gosh, I'm glad to be taken away from some of these bad reoccurances a few times a day. I hope things go well for me and everything will become the way my life should be.
