  • Sports Fanatic

    So i've taken to watching a TON of sports. Usually just the Marlins, but theyre 23-27 and that depresses me. Although today's game against the mets was a good, especially for Josh Johnson and Jeremy Hermida. Johnson allowed only one run and Hermida almost went for a cycle with a single, double, and a 3-run home run.

    Basketball is also on my eye. The Orlando Magics have made it into the NBA Finals. I hope they can make it all the way!

    My school's softball and baseball team is doing well. The girl's Softball team is doing amazing in the women's college world series. Theyre 2-0 and moving on, if i remember correctly. The baseball team won today against Miami.

    Mav came over with Mel for a bit, that baby is too cute. But unfortunately i spent most of their visit making food so i didnt get to hang out for long since they went to church. I should be sleeping since its 4:40am and i have to wake up at 9 but i cant seem to fall asleep. Stupid Insonmia. -____- gonna keep trying tho

  • Summer Update

    Hey all

    I know i havent updated that much. I've been home all this time and its been pretty great. I've seen my family A LOT. I've been to the pool at least 5 times since i've been home but its been pretty rainy so its hard to go any more or to even plan to go. This past sunday was my niece's 1 yr old bday party. It was such a blast. It was held at a place called Party Max and it has bouncy houses, train rides, a merry go round, a bouncy-slide and obstacle course, a baseball thing, foosball table, food bar, etc. I thuoght i was going to be able to enjoy it considering it was a party for a 1 year old but it was a blast and a half. Even my aunts and older cousins enjoyed themselves on the bouncy slide. Here's a pic of me:

    My Cookie had more puppies. Three this time :) I'll get pics soon! I got to name one :) the little black and white one is Patches. My sis named the two brown and white ones Romeo and July (or Julio depending who you ask).

    Currently Mel, my niece, is sick. We think its either amoxicillan-caused rash, a heat rash, or the measles, because she has a maculopapular rash. Of course we're not doctors, so we don't know for sure, but her doctor said that if the rash doesn't go away on its own (well, with benadryl) by Monday, to take her back in.

    Mia Luna, my other niece, is so cute. Whenever her and Mel are together she feels the need take mel's stuff, usually her pacifier. In one particular instance, it was a Dora the Explorer doll and when i tried to take it away from her she ran away and i chased her into the kitchen. When she was finally cornered she stuck her hand out to give me the doll, then she cutely said Hi waving the otherhand in the while. She has picked this up as her fail-safe way to get out of trouble. It usually works because we're so caught up in how cute that is.

    Well thats all the update for now. I'll keep trying to update from time to time...

    Back Home

    After Ed's Party and Initiation/Banquet things died down a bit. Nothing really big: Amber's barbecue where i went w/ kyle and rachel and we had a blast; then Josh's dinner at Chili's as a last farewell for PAD people; and of course FINALS! I ended up doing terrible this semester. Three Bs, a C, and a D+ But my GPA is still above a 3.0 so yay for that i have a 3.10 so this upcoming semester is going to be me buckling down on myself!

    Since I've been home I haven't really done much. Saturday we drove back and went to a peruvian restaurant for some really good food . Sunday I went to church in the morning and we presented my cousin Pam's baby, rather than do the official baptism since at our church we don't do baptisms till you're old enough to choose for yourself. Then we decided to go to my cousin's house and have a pool day. It was fun, I saw all of my 8 nieces and nephews which is always a plus. Monday I went to the library and pretty much just chilled. Tuesday was a blast, I spent about 15 hours of cleaning, give or take an hour. All of that was done to help me unpack a bit and because the house was a HUGE mess and my cousin Sandra was flying in today so I wanted the house to at least be presentable... So because i had taken my ADHD med really late on tuesday I didnt fall asleep until like 7 am and my mom ended up going with Mavick to pick Sandra up from the airport. I got very little sleep 4 hrs if that, so I'm surprised that I'm not crashing yet. We had Pollo Tropical for lunch and Pizza for dinner, three cheers for a lazy day! Mavick, Sandra and Mel came by. Mel is so cute. I can't wait till she turns 1 She is starting to be a huge pain though, she knows what works to get attention and she tries to be it all the time ha ha. We were going to go to the Baseball game (to see my Marlins) but Sandra had jetlag and I was on like four hours of sleep so we are choosing to wait until after their next road trip. So now im sitting here hoping the Marlins can pull it together and beat the Braves. We're currently down 8-4 in the 5th so we have 4 more tries after this inning. Cross your fingers!

    Ed's Party & Initiation: To call the boy or not, that is the question.

    So last we left off, I went to get lunch with Jess and Lauryn so i was cut off, but really i was done talking I finished my Italian paper and emailed it to my professor, so that part of my life is closed. I have 3 finals starting next Wednesday, my family drives up Thursday and we leave back home Friday. My dad is making his first trip up to Gainesville, so that makes me very excited. He is coming because my uncle, who normally is the one to come get me from school, can't use his van because it overheats. So my mom and dad are coming in my dad's work van so my stuff will fit and Mavick, Maura, and Mavick's cute baby Mel are coming in Mavick's car and I'm driving down in that car w/ them.

    Well on to business. Wednesday after i finished my final, that night, I went to my friend Ed's Birthday party. It was a lot of fun, my little was there, as were a lot of my friends. My little got so drunk and was being funny the entire night, as was Nate who apparently saw that I got my little some cake and he was demanding our friend Kelsey to go with him to find cake. I met a boy and we talked for a bit and we exchanged phone numbers but he hasnt called. Since i'm only here for less than a week, I feel it would be better if we hung out now rather then in the fall for awkwardness purposes. So, should i just call him and ask him out? or get the hint and not call him?

    Here is a pic from Wednesday:


    Thursday was my Little's Initiation. It was so cute, I tried to get good pics but they dimmed down the lights in the room so a lot of my pics are a bit funky looking. I took a ton of pics with friends, especially those who are graduation. Afterwards we went to the banquet and that was a ton of fun too. Ashley got most active new member and I won most active E-board member, which was a follow up to my receiving most active new member last semester. Afterwards we went back home so i can grab laptop to work on my paper and I realized I'd left my key card at the restaurant. So my little had to turn around and come back and get me to take me to pick it up, luckily they found it and held it for me. We finally just went to Adam's and played rockband, and no, I did not get my paper written there (I wrote it Friday).

    Here is a pic from initiation and the banquet.
    Waiting for the new members to enter:

    James (my adopted little), Kyle, me, Adam, Rachel (my actual little)

    Ashley and Me w/ our Gift Certificates for most active new member and E-board member.

    Friday, after finishing my paper, we went to see a Beatles cover band. I got upset with my little, adam and kyle because they decided to get cigarrettes and blow smoke in my face. They also tried to peer-pressure me into smoking, although not that hard. I do think I blew things out of proportions, but I think it taught them a lesson about blowing smoke into a girl who used to have Asthma's face. The band was really good though, and they did two encore songs. Adam is amazing for taking us.
    Here is a few pics from the concert:
    Kyle, Me, Adam, Rachel :)

    The Band


    So basically, should I call the boy or not? I know I went off topic but I really am sick and tired of being loveless, and things with Josh are confusing. I can't tell with him, he says he doesn't like me then I catch him stealing glimpses at me (or maybe my imagination's on over drive and I'm making something out of nothing with Josh, which shows how desperate I'm getting)

  • Italian Final

    I just finished a monstrous Italian final, it was take home, THANK GOD! because i would have failed otherwise. I'm currently watching the baseball game waiting for Lauryn to get home from her test so me, her and Jess can go to lunch. Im really grateful that theyre going to be my dormmates next year, it'll be such a blast! I don't have another final until next wednesday, but i have 3 in 2 days (4/29-4/30), so i have to study a LOT because those exams will not be easy. Wish me luck.

    I saw the funniest thing on yahoo video. Miss USA contestant saying publicly that she was against gay marriage, personally i think it cost her the contest. But I just want to say, there are worse things than a man and a man being married, so stop fussing. The same people who refuse to budge now on this topic were the same people who were opposed to abortion, woman's voting rights, desegregation etc... and all those things happened because we are a progressive society.

    I ran into Blaine again after my Differential Equations class (i got a perfect 10 on my quiz :D i am very happy!) and Mike walked past us and just gave me this icky look. I know i screwed our friendship up with my jealous bullshit last year, but if i can get past it, why can't you? Blaine and the girls are more receptive, i havent really run into Silvia since she and Mike got married. I'm not going to lie, i'm curious as to how things are going between tehm but its not in my best interest to try and find out. Im just glad that i dont have to walk around anymore worrying about whether or not i'm going to see them. (side note: apparently the girls have taken to constantly drinking and smoking pot, and one even died her hair a ghastly green :/)

    Lunch time... brb
