Completed my First Half-Marathon!
My FEET HURT SO BAD.
Tonight was a great night.
I didn’t do much today except hang around and waste time until around 4:30. I left to go meet my friend Raechel and a bunch of her friends at Subway for dinner.
It was so nice to see her after all this time. I’m so excited to be home for the summer so that her and I can spend our weekends together. We already have plans for the beach,...
My Brother is a Rockstar.
Helloooooo
I ruined my diet today and now I’m paying for it by feeling like absolute crap.
My Mom woke me up this morning to tell me that she was going to be babysitting some kids starting at like 8:30. I kind of ignored it and went back to sleep.
I woke up when they got here but I wasn’t ready to get up yet so I laid in bed and watched last night’s episode of Nashville.
OH...
Biking. Working. Photographing.
Today was a very good day.
My alarm went off at 7:30 this morning, but I turned it off and went back to sleep. At 8, I thought about getting up but my Mom informed me that the Pest Control person was coming to spray the house, so instead, my doggy joined me in my room and we went back to sleep together until about 9 when I finally got up and showered.
After my shower, I helped my Mom re-color...
Clean Eating, Yellow Flowers, & DEMI.
Hiiiiiiiiiii
This summer is slowly looking up.
This morning I got up at 8:00.
yes. 8:00.
FINALLY A REASONABLE TIME.
I showered and then climbed back into my comfy bed to watch two of my TV shows online.
When they were over, I headed outside to sit in the sun and work on my tan.
I have tanlines.
They make me happy.
But lovebugs make me sad.
They literally swarm me every time I step...
Sleep & Sun & Work & Ice Cream & More Sleep
Just laid down in bed to go to sleep and totally forgot about blogging… AGAIN.
Sorry.
So last night, or this morning rather, I went to sleep at 2 AM. Not many people know this about me, actually no one, but I love writing stories, particularly love stories. [Hence my hopeless romantic forever alone personality.] Well, I’ve been working on one for a while this year and then took a...
It Was Only Like 300 Billion Degrees Outside...
Happy Sunday!
Today was a nice relaxing day.
I slept in this morning and then when I finally got up and showered and all that, I have my Mom her Mother’s Day card. My goal was to make her cry.
It worked.
Yay ;)
Thank you Taylor Swift for your beautiful and abnormally large cards with the perfect quotes.
It was a winner.
We hung around and watched TV together most of the morning and...
Food. Cake. Food. People. Food. Family. Friends....
Happy weekend!
I enjoyed my very last Saturday not having to work.
I’m pretty sure starting next week I will be working Saturday mornings again but we’ll see.
This morning I slept in (as usual) and once I got up and got ready, my Mom and I left the house to go to Walmart and the Dollar Store and pick up some final decorations and food and the cake for my Dad’s graduation party...
Congratulations Papa!
I don’t know what is wrong with me. I have never been this tired. I sleep in every day, go to bed early and still fall asleep every time I sit down.
I just watched an hour long TV program with my family and feel asleep as soon as it ended just to wake up and realize I should probably get ready for bed.
This town and this house are messing with me.
I’m still sleeping really bad at...
I'm a Working Girl.
I just ate a 650 calorie caramel frosty shake from Wendy’s.
WHAT WAS I THINKING.
My head. My stomach. Everything hurts. My body is not used to this much sugar anymore.
I was doing so good.
Ugh.
This morning I woke up around 8 and actually made it out if bed because I had to get ready for work. After getting ready, I had enough time to watch last night’s episode of Nashville...
Bad Sleep, Work, & Food.
I actually DREAD going to bed every night because ever since I’ve gotten home I’ve been sleeping SO BAD. I wake up like 30 times in the night and when I actually am deep asleep, I have the worst nightmares ever… back to back. Nonstop.
I deal with nightmares a lot better now than when I was younger but it’s still bad enough to wake me up, freak me out, I toss and turn,...
Back to Work.
Staying up listening to Demi Lovato’s new album because she posted the audio to all of the songs today.
<33333 In love.
She’s so amazing.
Today was my first day back at my old job and it went really well.
I was pretty nervous all morning about going back and not doing things right or messing things up or forgetting stuff or whatever, but fortunately, I felt like it had never...
2 days down, 100 something more to go...
I feel so lazy.
I literally did nothing today.
I slept in until about 9 and then got up so that my Mom wouldn’t bug me all day about “sleeping in too late.” When I got up, my brother and I played Mind Feud for the longest time. Thanks a lot to my Mom for getting me completely addicted to that game! Good thing I don’t have anything better to do with myself.
Mike and I...
Sleeping, Unpacking & Eating
Happy Saturday.
It still doesn’t really feel like I’m stuck here for 3 months.
I keep forgetting I don’t have to leave again like tomorrow.
It’s weird.
This morning I slept in until 10:30 and it was a lovely feeling. I probably could have slept longer but my Mom stood at my door, talking to me until i got out of bed.
So I did.
I showered without shoes on for the first...
1 Year Down, Many More to Go.
Hoooommmeeeeee.
For 3 months.
This is going to be a very long summer. I can tell already.
I got up super early this morning at like 7 AM because I thought I would need a lot of time to pack. Well, I was wrong. I took my last shower ever in the dorm bathroom (THANK GOODNESS). Then I got ready and around 8, Thuy and I had our last breakfast ever in the dining halls.
After we ate, I picked up a...

I’m DONE I’m done I’m done I’m done I’m done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After possibly one of the worst weeks of my life, an extreme lack of sleep, hunger, breakdowns, and the most studying I have ever done in my life, I walked out of my last final exam tonight at 8:45.
I am now officially a college senior at USF.
And I’m SO RELIEVED.
I got up at 5:30 this...
Reaching My Breaking Point. 24 More Hours.
Today was a very difficult day.
I woke up at 5:30 after less than 5 hours of sleep, showered and got ready, and then headed to the library.
I was at the library from 6:45 AM until 5:00 tonight guys.
That’s 10 hours.

I was doing so good Monday and yesterday but I am officially drained. I literally can’t do this anymore. THANK GOD my last 3 exams are tomorrow.

2. More. Days.
This morning, I woke up to a huge thunderstorm. I thought I was dreaming, but no. It thundered ALL night long. Like nonstop, loud booms
Crazy.
I woke up at 6 and turned all of my alarms off before getting up at 6:20, taking a super fast shower, putting makeup on super fast, blow drying my hair super fast, and running out the door to get to the library.
I had an...

Coffee, Early Mornings, and All-Day Studying.
Hello all.
Happy official Finals Week.
This morning, my roommate woke up at 5:30 AM to study for her Chemistry final.
I woke up from her and couldn’t fall back asleep. I was literally wide awake. I tried to fall back asleep but couldn’t no matter how hard I tried, so I just went ahead and got up and showered and got ready.
At 7, I headed to the library, stopped by Starbucks to...
Studying. All. Day. Every. Day. Almost. There.
I’m so emotionally numb right now.
Stressed about finals.
Stressed about money.
Stressed about the summer.
Stressed about packing.
Stressed about grad school.
Stressed about leaving.
Ugh.
There really isn’t much to say today because I literally studied ALL day long.
My alarm went off around 8:30 and I turned it off so I could go back to sleep. Thuy got up to take a shower and...

Hello!
Today was my final day off of studying. I took a nice break today to spend and enjoy time with my wonderful friends.
I started my morning off early when I got up around 8:30. Rowan headed to my place at 10 and we went to Walmart together to buy some craft supplies.
I’m such an idiot.
I bought 2 big plastic bins to pack some shoes and clothes and stuff in for when I move out. So my...
6 Days. :(
Happy Friday!
Today was such a weird day that went by so fast.
I tried to sleep in some but around 8:30, Thuy was up to go to class and asked me if I wanted to eat with her when she got back, so I decided to get up and get ready and then around 10:30, we went and got lunch together.
While I was getting my food, I ran into Rowan who also ate with us.
We enjoyed a nice lunch and talked some...
1 More Week.
HAPPY LAST DAY OF CLASSES!!!!!!
My semester (minus finals) is completely over.
Not gonna lie, it feels kind of nice.
I got up early this morning to go to my last social psychology class and I would just like to say that I’m REALLY going to miss that class. I learned so much in that class that my whole view on the world and humanity has changed. I am so thankful for that class. It made...
1 Week & 1 Day.
Hola.
Today was my last day at work. I slept in until 8:30 because I was SP TIRED. Once I got up, I got ready for work and then left the dorm at 10:30. There was tons of free food at work to celebrate the end of the semester/year and so I ate a veggie sub from Jimmy Johns and some chips and it was really yummy.
When I got off work at 11, I walked home and Thuy and I left to go eat lunch.
Since...
2 Classes, 2 Exams, 1 Work Day, and 4 Finals Left.
Helloooo…
My LAST long Tuesday is over.
This morning, I woke up super early to get to class. Class was really good. I’m going to miss Social Psych so much.
I only got 5 hours of sleep last night and the Starbucks was way out of my way so I ended up buying a soda to make it through class this morning. I literally haven’t had soda in maybe 2 to 3 months, so it didn’t feel...
Monday Monday. It's Almost Over.
It is officially the last week of classes at USF.
4 more days until finals week.
10 more days until it’s over.
Craziness.
Everyone around me keeps talking about how excited they are for the summer and how glad they are that the semester is almost over and I’m over here about to cry because I don’t want to leave!! :(
This morning, I had to get up early for work. I worked for...

11 more days until my first year at USF is over.
Thuy and I are currently cleaning up the room and taking everything off of the walls. I’m depressed.
How do I live without her for 3 months?! Nooooooooooo
Okay so I woke up this morning at like 6 AM because Thuy had to be at work really early but I fell back asleep immediately and turned off all of my alarms until about 9 when I finally...
Where is Home. I Don't Even Know
Helllooooo
I’m back in Tampa! Yay!
This morning at home, I slept in until 10:00. It was quite nice. When I got up, I just hung around for awhile and then enjoyed an amazing lunch of yesterday’s leftovers with my parents. I eat so good when I’m at home!
After lunch, I pretty much just hung around the rest of the day with my Mom and Dad until like 2 when we left to go meet my Grandparents for...
Birthday. Food. Pictures. Family. Life & Death.
Happy Friday!
It feels like a Saturday… but it’s not.
So I started my Friday morning off by getting up at 7 AM AS IN AM THE MORNING TIME. As in too soon to be awake on a Friday.
My Mom and I brought my car to a mechanic friend to finally have the A/C fixed and then we went shopping, ordered a corsage for my brother’s prom date, and went to a funeral.
Have I ever mentioned how...
Proud Psych Major.
I’m hooooooome.
This morning, I got up early to go to class. Class was awkward because the lightbulb in the projector went out and my professor didn’t want to stop class, so while he was lecturing there were 3 dudes and a very tall ladder in the middle of our classroom.
It was weird.
But somehow my professor still managed to make class interesting enough and it was actually really...
1 More Day Until the Weekend!
Why do I always go to bed so late.
Why.
Well… this morning, I slept in since I didn’t have to be at work until 11.
It felt pretty amazing i must say.
When I got up, I just took my time getting ready and all that good stuff and then left early for work so I could stop by Starbucks and get a frappuccino.
Light.
So not very many calories.
Diet still going strong.
But I needed my...

Hello.
Even though Tuesdays are usually horrible, today was quite good.
I got up super early to go to my Social Psych class… ( I stayed awake the whole time.)
After class, I walked to work and worked until 2. I studied a little bit and then just spent the rest of the time talking with my awesome coworkers. I’m so thankful to have such great people to work with.
I also filled out my...
Falling Asleep to Country Music Every Night.
This week, next week, finals… and then my first year at USF is officially over.
I am literally amazed at how fast this year has gone by. It’s almost scary.
This morning, I woke up early because I [thankfully] got to go to work again. Of course I woke up and got ready way too early and spent an hour just sitting around.
I haven’t been sleeping well lately. I wake up multiple...
Lazy Sunday.
After a very exciting weekend, today was a very, very boring day.
I set an alarm for 8 o’ clock so I could wake up and maybe do some homework or something.
Turned off my 8:00 alarm.
Turned off my 8:30 alarm.
Turned off my 9:00 alarm.
And by that point, I just gave up and slept until 10 when I realized it would probably be a good idea to actually get out of bed.
I slowly made my...
WatchThis is what I was talking about in my previous blog.
That powerful and incredible connection you can feel to complete strangers just by singing the same words to the same song at the same time… Simultaneously.
It’s amazing what music can do.
Such a great feeling.

Holaaaa.
Today went by SUPER fast and I am SUPER exhausted!
After like 5 hours of sleep, I woke up at 5:35 on this lovely Saturday morning. I showered and got ready and at 7:50, Rowan showed up at my dorm and we were ready to road-trip to St. Augustine together. Of course, we first had to stop at Starbucks to get some caffeine and breakfast.
(Side-note: The veggie/egg white english muffin at...
Crazy Busy Day.
Happy Friday!
I am beyond exhausted and need to go to sleep so sorry if this is rushed. This morning I got up early and left at 9:30 to head to international mall. Before that I stopped for gas, and then I shopped at the mall for about an hour or so. When I left the mall, I went to target to buy some more things and then quickly left because I was going broke.
Of course.
When I got back to...
Ahhh I almost forgot to blog.
I’m so glad today is over which means my weekend is officially here.
This morning I got up super early to go to class. After class, I went to the library to talk to my boss. Then I did some online homework and spent the rest of the afternoon hanging out in the library until 3 when I had to go to my next class. That class got out early which was really...
I Made My Mommy Happy. Yay :)
This week is just dragging along.
This morning, Thuy’s alarm went off super early because she had class.
I fell back asleep.
Then my alarm went off at 8.
I fell back asleep.
Second alarm went off at 8:20
I fell back asleep.
FINALLY at 9 AM, I decided I really had to get up.
So I got up and showered and got ready so I could head to work. I worked for 2 hours and then had lunch with...

Happy Tuesday.
Today started out so good then quickly got bad.
I woke up early to shower and get ready for class.
I headed to my Social Psych class, had a pop quiz that I made a 90 on, and then learned some really interesting stuff. So interesting that on the way back from class, I had to text it all out to my Dad because I wanted to share it with someone so bad. There will be yet another blog...
A Case of the Mondays.
Today is not a good day.
Stupid Mondays.
I woke up late because I decided to sleep in. When I finally did get up, my stomach was absolutely KILLING me so I scarfed down a granola bar, took some medicine and showered.
I was still feeling bad after and laid in bed for a little while relaxing. I eventually got up and got ready. I did some homework for my online class and then had lunch with...
Short Blog, Boring Day.
This weekend went by suuuuuper fast.
Today I slept in until 9 which felt wonderful. I did not sleep well last night at all. I woke up like 100 times throughout the night. I don’t know why.
When I finally got up, I showered and got ready and then Thuy and I headed to brunch at like 11 or 11:30ish.
I left at 12:45 to go to work. I worked alone again and spent most of the time studying for an...
