Flourescent Adolescent

Well, my college officially doesn't know how to run a college. I called the University of Pittsburgh and they said they never received my college transcript (which I sent off) so I went to my schools office today and asked about it and they said they were missing some info so they never sent it. I was confused like "wut, when were you gonna tell me that? So I could come in and fix it?" Like I'm here freaking out because I hadn't heard from them so I called and that's what they told me.

Just stupidity. Everywhere.

Anyways, today has been a pretty good day. I took a midterm today and it went pretty smoothly, and then afterwards went to Starbucks with a friend and talked about how the midterm ended up being a joke. My professor made it sound a lot harder than it really was and it was silly. But after that I went to my psych class where we got paired ( I was paired with my friend Josefine) and we had to diagnose someone and we had a blast doing it because were both psych majors and we were spot on with our diagnosis and how we would treat them so that was a lot of fun. Now I'm sitting in the buildings quiet area just reviewing for my math test when my attention swayed to blogging. I'll do fine on the test, I really understand the material (plus it helps that the whole test is multiple choice!).

For the rest of the day, I'm gonna go to Pompanos practice and then Joy is coming over tonight and sleeping over to celebrate being on spring break finally! No homework! (Except a paper for psych I really need to put the finishing touches on.

8 days until Rachel is home!

But have a great day lovelies!

Who Gives A Fuck About An Oxford Comma?

Math overload

So many problems, this is getting ridiculous.

Strange day today. I woke up to go to work feeling like absolute crap but thought it would pass. When I get to work, I thought I was feeling better. In a good mood, doing good, and all of a sudden the nausea hits me like a wall. I smell the coffees and espresso and I want to vomit, I smell the food (especially the sausage classic) coming out of the oven and I almost wanted to keel over. I couldn't see straight, I apparently looked like I was about to pass out. It was a bad morning. But Paul came in early for me so I left early and pretty much laid down all day, trying to get it out of my system. For the most part I feel a little better but as soon as I get up, I feel like I'm going to fall over. So I'm just sitting in my chair so I can avoid that.

I got my new scoots today! Its blue, I haven't come up with a name yet, but I got it and its mine! I was so excited driving it home, Its brand new, and I bought it myself. AND it has cup holders. I'm so excited. This will be great.

Besides that, tomorrow I have some of my last classes, but then I'm off for the week for spring break!

The next few weeks will be fun!

Take Back The Night

Last nights close was so good! We kicked ass! It was all girls and I broke down every bar (taking everything apart, cleaning it, and putting it back) all by myself and Jen ran the floor on her own and we were great. I'm so proud of myself for doing as well as I did and getting out relatively on time! We all kicked ass, I'm so happy. Proved myself as a closer.

Today is a school day and I'm just waiting on going to my math class (which my teacher finally decided to have weekly) and then we are going out to dinner with the familia for Mommos birthday this week. She leaves tomorrow, and although she can be annoying when it comes to putting my stuff in places I'll never find them, I'm going to miss her.

This past weekend, I took Saturday off so I could spend the whole day with Pompanos guard and staff and it was so much fun! The girls did really well and it was a lot of fun. After the competition, Jackie, Katie and I went and got slurpees and bonded. It was a great day overall. Really enjoyed myself.

Besides that, the past few days have been pretty boring. Sunday night was wayyyy to much fun... but I'm not going to get into that right now, until I see things going in a good direction and I don't want to jinx it.

Anyways lovelies, Hope the week is going well!

I'm An Extraordinary Machine

Well, breaking news: I broke my toe... 6 months ago

Yup I would say that's pretty breaking news.

I'm so lame

Anyways here's the story: I guess about six months ago (or whenever I started working at Starbucks) I must've banged it against something just the wrong way that I broke my pinky toe on my right foot and not noticed because I was busy. I didn't take notice of it until 2 nights ago when I worked an 8 hour shift and was sitting on my chair. Now, my pinky toe had been bothering me for a long time but I never knew what it was, but usually after a long shift, I would start to feel a mild pain in my pinky toe. So I was sitting on my chair, and I felt the inside of my pinky toe (where the pain was being generated for the most part) and felt a hard bump and it was so tender and it hurt to poke it so I felt my other toe and there was no bump. I call my mom and she feels it and goes "Yup, you have a broken toe" and I was shocked because its been hurting for months. So the little bump is actually a piece of bone sticking out to the side but it's not broken skin so I never noticed it.

So I've been working and running and living my life with a broken toe. Now that's its set right, I actually feel discomfort. Its taped to my other toe so it will straighten itself out because its healed crookedly. But I'm not telling any of my shifts or managers because they'll either make me work less or put me on stinking POS (front register) so I don't have to move very much. And that's not gonna happen.

But besides that, nothing interesting has happened. I'm finally selling the car today. Its sad actually. I loved that car. So many memories. But it's time to say goodbye. My first car. Thank you, RIP "The Big Bitch". Also, I've become a chef (using the term lightly) because I made an awesome dinner that was spinach patties over yellow rice with marinara sauce and fresh mozzarella on top. Soo good!

But I must leave you with this little ditty about how I'm hardcore and didn't know I broke my toe. The show must go on!

Have a lovely weekend!

p.s. the drink is awesome! Its a berry hibiscus/lemonade mix, not shaken with passion tea poured over the ice! Try it!

The Horizon Tries But It's Just Not As Kind On The Eyes

Dunkin Donuts is probably the worst since I started working at Starbucks. The coffee a
is just awful, like it just tastes bad. The food has always been good, but I cant eat a lot of it now that I'm vegetarian again.

I have to start saving more money. I mean, I've been doing very well in regards to saving but I need to save more. I changed my availability on Thursday nights so I can work after 5 30 because I need the hours. It sucks that I'm taking one of my days off to work more but I really need the hours that it will give me. I don't want to fall behind in my plan anymore than I had by deciding way too late what I wanted to do. So I save my tips, I save in gas now, I'm picking up doubles whenever I can and am now available Thursday nights.

Speaking of saving in gas and insurance, I've been driving the Vespa because I no longer have a car because fixing it would've been pointless for what the car is worth, and I went to get gas last night and for a full tank (which is 1.5 gallons which takes me about 200 miles) was only 5 dollars.
W H A T
It was fabulous, I'm going to save so much money with this decision. And I went on Federal Highway today and it wasn't awful. I felt bad because I felt I was going too slow (even though I was going a little above the speed limit) but for Boca that's slow so I felt kinda bad but I'm sure their used to it at this point.

Anyways, I'll probably post again a little later today with more information of my day. This is just the early part of my day. I'm gonna go get some more crap food from the gas station and be on my way to class.

Have a great Tuesday everybody!

Don't You Forget About Me

Can my life be like an 80's movie? Please?

I love 80's movies. Classic. My time I think. But oh well, I'm stuck in this crap time with people who are so narrow minded to everything they're afraid of and a whole bunch of old men. I don't get it.

Anyways, after a long day at work, I'm off for the night and I'm just going to hang out because my feet hurt sooo bad.

Trying not to kill this whole bag of Kit Kats that I got. Kinda hard.

Filled up the Vespa today and it was only 5 dollars! Ridiculous!
Why didn't I do this early!

Have a good night lovelies!

Cotton Candy frappucino! I don't like 'em but this one is fab.

Do I Wanna Know?

If this feeling goes both ways

Well this is a load of crap, I work all mornings this week! I stopped working mornings for a reason! Agh so much for a restful week. But I did get Saturday off which is perfect! I can go see Pompano down at Flanagan! But I need to drop by practices this week so I can find a ride because I don't have a car anymore. Maybe I can go with Jackie. I must find out this week but I also have to get gas for the vespa and I whole bunch of stuff.

Holli told me that she could fix up my pistons so my scooter will go faster so I think I might do that because I could use some more power without having to get a license.

Anyways, the day was spent for a little while at work (4 hours!) and the rest tanning and eating a good lunch and dying my hair again. Just a chill day overall. Watching Lord of the Rings and eating Kit Kat.

Off to work in the AM tomorrow, not too thrilled about it. Goodnight lovelies!

About Time

I just watched probably one of the cutest movies. Its called About Time. Rachel McAdams is in it and she is of course fabulous. This movie is seriously such a feel good movie, I kept waiting for something bad to happen because it was all so perfect but it just one of those movies where its just a feel good movie about life. I really enjoyed it, I recommend it 1OO%!

But anyways, my car finally decided to crap out on me. Its been making this noise, like a clicking noise and I finally took it in and it would've been over 2000 dollars to fix it along with the other things that was wrong with it so we all officially decided to sell my car and buy a scooter! I already got the helmet and when Adam gets back were gonna sell the car to CarMax and buy a scooter. Exciting stuff happening!

Yesterday was Valentines Day or what I like to call Single Awareness Day! And I was working, obviously, but it wasn't so bad actually. I really had a good night. And it was a good close. So nothing really interesting there.

But anyways, I'm off to ride my moms intensely yellow Vespa to work for the night in my new stylish helmet!

But seriously, watch About Time.

xo lovelies!

And She's Not Aware Yet, But She's Yours

What a day! Its been a long one that's for sure. I worked until 2 today and then I went to a doctors appointment. All I want to do is nap right now but I know I wont be able to fall asleep later which is going to suck for tomorrow. So I need to keep myself awake. But I wont be happy about it!

But yeah, today is pretty relaxed. Most of my weeks lately haven't been too much fun since all I do is work and school. And do homework. So, not much to report. I'm looking forward to spring break though. Some time off to actually have days off.

Hope everyone is having a good week! It's hump day!

Let It Go

So Joy came over to watched Frozen again. This movie seriously pulls at my heartstrings. Now I know all the words to the songs too and I'm singing it all the time.

Also now I planned a trip to Disney for when Rachel comes home. Her, me, and Joy are going to Disney for Spring Break! Hopefully. I really wanna go. Hopefully it all works out.

Short short post because I work tomorrow at 5 30 AM! Wish me luck peeps!

Favourite Worst Nightmare

That Arctic Monkeys album really is the best.

Last night was good. I mean yesterday I was supposed to go in at 5 30 but I got called in earlier because someone was a no call no show,  so I went in at 3 instead and stayed until closing instead of 9 30 so I got the hours which is nice. The close was really good, but tensions were running pretty high earlier in the afternoon but everything was resolved and we ended up having a really great night.

But anyways, after the close last night and Saturday, Bran and I got pizza from dominos because we roll like that. I think the dominos guy has a crush on me though because he always give me unnecessary discounts when he's there. But whatever, I keep going because pizza is life.

This weekend has been all in all not very eventful, lots of homework and working and closing. I did however get an A on my psych test! Which I'm super proud of! I have another test due by Tuesday which I'm gonna take at the library because its one of the harder most important chapters in the book.

I've become quite the student though. I study all the time, spend hours doing homework and reading my text books, make sure everything is on time and I ace my tests. The feeling is really wonderful. I enjoy doing homework and going to class. My friends and family think its because I actually know what I want to do with my life now and they're all really proud. Especially my mom which makes me happy.

Well, I'm gonna finish some of this homework before I go to work again at 1 today! But at least I don't close, I leave at 7!

Hope everyone starts their week out well! Happy Monday!

Do You Wanna Build A Snowman?

Frozen was SOOOO GOOOOOD.

I'm in love with that movie! Elsa is a badass and Anna is literally me I love them so much. It kinda hits home for me because they're sisters and the separation hurts them both so much that when they see each other its awkward and I know people think its adorable and quirky but that's honestly what its like when your separated for so long and you see each other. Its weird because you know them but you don't, you know? But I loved the movie so much I watched it twice in a row. Such a cute movie and it made me want to go to Disney that much more. I'm going to plan a trip very, very soon because I miss it. But I'm definitely Elsa, just saying.

Today was uneventful. Went to class, hung out at home, went to work and that's my day!

But I hope you guys have a safe Friday!

Much love

One Day I'll Fly Away

Leave all this to yesterday...

If I could get my hair to be the same shade of red as Nicole Kidman's in Moulin Rouge then I would die a happy girl. I think I'm too tan actually *frowny face*

Today I got literally all of my homework done today (well until tomorrow anyway) I even started reviewing the next chapter for my Psych class.  But now I'm going to enjoy my night off and just go on Tumblr for hours straight. And watch Netflix. Yes, this sounds like a plan.

Spent the night with Joy which was nice because we made the most bomb ass Mac n Cheese. Y U M.
And finished some homework and ate a whole box of Ferrero Rocher. Soo good.

Tomorrow I have class and I'm pretty excited for it. I really enjoy going to class.

Welp, goodnight my lovelies! Happy Hump Day!

Friendships Are Lovely

I don't think I have to say it twice, having friends is a wonderful thing. And knowing that you have friends is comforting and when you  realize who they really are, they become stronger bonds. It's the little things like seeing them briefly but still walk away smiling because you know they care and they know you care. It's not even being in the same state and still talking every chance you get, even if its only for 10 minutes. Its being on two different schedules and still finding the rare time to see each other and picking up where you left off like you didn't miss a beat. True friendship is something rare and you need to see it before you lose it. Just a bit of an observation I made today.

Besides that, my day was rather uneventful. Joy will hopefully be coming over tonight to do some homework and that's my night. Hope you guys had just as lovely a day as I did!

Much love

Advice For Sad Teenage Girls With Too Many Flannels

1. Always take pictures of the sky when it's pretty, it probably wont ever look like that again.
2. Wear that skirt you like, even if you're mom says its too short.
3. Take off the dark eyeliner and nail polish once in a while, you'll feel lighter.
4.Chop off you're hair if you want, it will grow back eventually.
5.Count the freckles on your arms and draw lines between them, your skin is like the night sky.
6. Sleep under six blankets with the fan on high in the middle of winter, the sound is soothing.
7. Tell that boy to stop touching your thigh, even if it is flattering.
8. Say thank you and flash a smile when your sister says that your outfit is ugly.
9. Raise your hand when you know the answer, even if the class is all upperclassmen.
10. Read that book again, you'll notice something you didn't the first time.
11. Don't drink too much caffeine, you'll get the jitters and bomb your math test.
12. Wear pencils behind your ears, its convenient.
13. Try to talk to people, it won't kill you.
14. When a cute boy tries to cheat of your test, write the wrong answers and change them later.
15. It's ok to feel happy, don't let other peoples sadness make you feel bad.

Breakfast At Tiffany's

I love Audrey Hepburn so, so much. Breakfast At Tiffany's is one of my favorite movies too. After a long day at work I'm going to relax and do a little more homework that I have left. Probably start reviewing my next math lesson ahead of time too. I'm very excited to go to class tomorrow, but I'm also nervous because I think I'm going to hear from Pittsburgh this week. I need to start planning for august though in every aspect. Financially, educationally, socially. Lots to think of, lots to plan, lots to save, and lots to get. Oh, and I have to get more winter acceptable clothing.

I'm just going into a bit of a panic mode is all. Don't mind me!

Just something I started to live by:
For class and sophistication, wear lace lingerie, coal black eyeliner and a posture to kill. Never slouch, and never go out looking worse than you would if your worst enemy was paying a visit

I have ridiculous feelings for someone but I'm not going to act on them because there's no point. I don't want a relationship and I'll be happy this Valentines Day (I know everyone says that) because it wont be stressful like it always has been. Plus I'll be working!

But I hope everyone had a good start to this week, cant wait to see what the rest of the week has in store for me!

I Wont Say I'm In Love

I loooove Hercules. Its probably one of my favorite Disney movies. Today is a day for homework! I got of work at 2 today and took a shower and sat down to immediately do homework. After eating a salad. That was the bomb.com by the way.

Today is SuperBowl Sunday here in 'Murica. I think there's an important episode of football on tonight? I'm not too sure. So naturally today people are more beer-oriented than coffee so today wasn't that busy. It kinda sucked getting up this morning because I closed last night and we didn't get out late or anything, we got out perfectly on time, but of course I couldn't fall asleep so I was exhausted today. But last night was fun, we all worked together and got everything done. Garrett being a shift is really nice, I really enjoy closing with him. And Jeff. He's turned out to be a really good friend. Like last night he spelled my name in Mocha and when I asked why he said "It's because you're so sweet!" aww that was cute. But I enjoy closing a lot in general.

When it comes to my Friend, it's so hard to read the signals. Very mixed. But no point in thinking too hard about, not looking for anything serious really. People tell me to let it find me but I don't know how much I want it to right now. Things between my Friend and I will stay as they are. Just friendly, nothing more.

Maybe I'll watch Tangled afterwards? Yes!

But anyways, hope everyone had a memorable weekend!

El Tango de Roxanne

The greatest thing you'll ever know, is just to love and be loved in return.

What a lazy day it has been so far. Well, I just woke up but thats besides the point. For today, I'm watching Moulin Rouge because I keep thinking about it and the music is great. And I get to look at Ewan McGregor. Ugh, love him. Maybe, if I have time, I'll watch Les Mis too. But Nicole Kidman is perfect.

So last night was fun, after I got off work, I went to Joys house where  she had a bunch of friends over including Ana, Paulina, Daniel, Sky and Juan. We watched a movie called "Prisoners" and it as well filmed and stuff but it was horrible. Suspenseful, I mean. I don't do suspense movies. But overall, the night was a lot fun. We ordered pizza and talked and joked around it was a lot of fun.

For today, I go in at 3 45 so I have a little time to chill out.

Happy Saturday everyone!
