omg, i had my spanish conversation final yesterday, and yeah, it DID NOT go well. i stutterd so badly and i kept on repeating "cuando" about 5 times in a row. i had such a major brain fart. i couldn't remember how to say the simplest things. man, i hope i at least get a B in the class. today i have my spanish grammar final. pray for me! anyways, on a lighter note, i am addicted to listening to "hands down" by dashboard confessional. that and "poetic tragedy" by the used. this year has gone by so fast, i can't emphasize enough how fast things have gone. although at times it may seem that boredom has gotten the best of me and time seems to pass by so slow, still, everything seems to have happened in a blur. i can still remember how in the beginning of this year i was ubberly excited about getting out of high school, then i went through high school finals, which by the way are less horrible than college finals. i remember me and barbara craming for the calculus final, me crying over the fact that i failed my calculus final and mentally putting blame on barbara cause we didn't even really study; then prom, which by the way was so flippin stressful cause of the drama a certain person brought, but ended up being a lot of fun. then i went to the philippines, came back, went to summer bridge, came back, moved to san diego, and now here i am, writing this entry and worrying about college finals. wow, what a year. i look at my surroundings now and i'm amazed at where i ended up. i can't believe i'm here. there were so many options layed out in front of me, and i decided, I decided, not my parents, not my friends, not my sister, not my cousin, I decided, to come here. it was quite possibly the second best decision i've ever made (the first is chosing to do journalism when i was a sophomore in high school, if i hadn't done that, i wouldn't have met the wonderful friends that i have in porterville!!). anyways, this was just a little burst of reflection that one of my friends had inspired me to do (thanks isie!). so yeah. i'll see all you porterville peeps soon!!! lets do something when i get back, and tiffany,this time you'll be there!!!
love always,
