Kinkos

Did you know that there is wireless connection at kinkos that you have to pay for to use in a small cubicle!? Probably not, but I just found out and thats how im writing my blog today. My mem and pep are not technologically advanced and they do not have an internet connection at their house so I am doing this hear. They would not let me drive and soo....they are here...sitting with me haha. But I do love them very much and I am glad to be here with them. Im lucky I still have grandparents on both sides. They are both 80 years old! Well Im going off now to visit my other side of the family.....my grammy and gramps in Sarasota, FL...soooo I will be writing again soon

finally in Sunny Florida

Hello.....I just arrived in Florida and it was a little crazy....but im here! My trip was alright......if you enjoy small airplanes. The first airplane I went on had only thirteen rows of seats...and I was in the very last seat...with a rather plump man who trapped me into my claustrophobic seat with his mindless discussions and large size. Not to mention this seat was facing the window...near the bathroom! The second plane..I figured couldnt possibly be as small as the firt, but to my surprise, it was! It had only three seats across the entire plane. I was in a single seat though! That was nice! When I arrived in Fort Lauderdale, my bad was missing...so I had to search frantically for it...but luckily it was found in the lost baggage claim...I hate traveling. I love vacationing

Sunshine

I think sunshine is addictive. It makes sense....becausewhy else would people go tanning in the winter? Once someone gets some, they still are left wanting more....and more...until they become cocoa puffs. Well I know I like the sun because it literally makes me feel good! When I go outside and the sun is shining and its warm out, its almost impossible to have a bad day. Today was beautiful out and I loved it!

Because I am writing two posts this evening because I forgot about this assignment, I will write a plan for the next week so i can study for mid-terms...I know...im boring. Tonight I will study for my Education 210 exam that is Tuesday. Tomorrow I will study a little more for Education 210 and then I will get my Tuesday assignments done ahead of time so I can make my show I HAVE to attend for my Lively Arts class....the tempest...ew. Then on Wednesday, I will write my midterm essay due on Friday for Natural Disasters. I will also do Thursdays assignments/readings. On Thursday, I will proofread and finish my paper due on Friday and I will begin studying for my midterm exam in Natural Disasters, this will happen after I attend the other required show for the lively arts at 8:00pm this is a classical music concert. I will also enjoy the warm weather!!! On friday.....I will RELAX and drive home. I will hang out with my best buddy Liz and we will pack for my trip to FL that I will be leaving for at 10 am the following day. I will spend nine lovely days in Boca and get a nice tan. I will love my life!

Born Kltuz

Have you ever seen someone on tv that seems ridiculously klutzy and you think, no one is that uncoordinated! Welll.......I am one of those characters that make those tv shows a reality. If there is a banana peel in the middle of the street, somehow my feet always seem to find it. If there is a small teeny tiny branch in my path, somehow it will knock me to the ground. I have been born with the natural ability to be clumsy. I think it began with my Grandmother. She was washing my dog outside once and she managed to fall off the railed porch! She was okay..she just had a couple bruises. I was so lucky to inherit this trait! Today I went to the park with my boyfriend and I thought i'd show off by walking a log that was very thin that was lined all the way across the park. I managed to do it perfectly, I hoped down, skipped over to him and he gave me an exaggerated applause when I was walking up the bleachers, my foot caught and i went face first into the bleacher above me, spilling my coffee and hurting my chest. Needless to say, he could not even try to muffle his laughter and I will live on my legacy of uncoordinated disaster haha.

Felicity

There is this show out there called Felicity. It came out in 1998 I think and it was fairly popular almost ten years ago. My mother was religious with watching the show about a young nerdy girl in college finding her way into the young adult world. I couldn't help but get attached to it as well. It became a time for my mother and I to bond and talk like girls love to do. When the show ended after four years, (because there are four years of college) me and mom were heartbroken. Well, this year I was surfingthe web and I remembered our love for the show. I purchased the first season! Well as soon as I got it, my mother was throwing fits haha. As soon as I finished it at school, I sent it home to my mother and my little sister to watch and rekindle old memories. Before we knew it, we purchased the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th seasons. Its an addictive show with many love scandals and friendship woes. I love it. Im not sure its the show that makes it such a warm experience, but its the nostalgia for watching a chick show with my mother. It was such a fun time to set aside an hour and talk about the characters while munching on popcorn and giggling about how my mother's life in college reminded her of the fun times shown on the show. Now that im in college, I appreciate many things about my mother and the rest of my family that I never noticed before. If theres anything I miss the most, its my mother's stories and just laughing with her. Shes my best friend and now being in college, we are apart. I don't think I love Felicity, I just love the time I spent with my mom while watching a college drama and spliting laughs with hot chocolate and warm memories.

home cooking

There is nothing more I miss while at schools than my parent's home cooking. I HATE DC food. It tastes all like one thing. Everything after awhile seems to take on one color and its produced in mass proportions, so its difficult to find it appealing. The only thing I look forward to is waffle making because I get to make it myslef! The prego pasta sauce just doesn't seem to cut it when it compares to dads pasta dishes at home. I REALLY miss dad's kilbasa and moms chicken soup, Memere's meatloaf, Pepere's pizza, and many other famil dishes. I have never been more greatful for my home cooking in my life. I find myself stuffing my stomach till it blows on the weekends I come home to visit. I guess all I can say is theres nothing like home cooking.......hopefully someday I will learn how to make these things myself and I can make them for myself instead of complaining about my need for them haha
