Today.....

So, today I went to target to buy some blu ray DVDs. I didn't pick up all of the ones i wanted to get, but i got a handful. My collecion is slowly starting to grow. I also picked up 2 basketball shorts. Did i need them? Not really, but I wanted them.

Anywho, I started working on my Economics homework, and although I was lost in the lecture today, I seem to understand the homework. It should be a good thing, but I fear for the second exam. UGH! I guess I'll worry about that after my spring break. Lets hope it all goes well!! I should finish it, but I'll leave it till tomorrow, because im lazy!!

I'm watching Erin Brockovich right now. I havn't seen this film in years! My phone keeps buzzing. New text messages! Probably Twitter.

Time to drop everything I'm doing and finish watching Erin Brockovich.

Sushi and Suri

I just finished texting Karina, and we are on for our weekly Sushi Extravaganza!!! I'm excited because for the past 2 weeks, we were unable to go. Yay! and mmmmmmmmm , sushi!!

We will probably go for a Suri Cruise hunt after we finish eating, which is always fun. Suri is our mascot! We love that little, future train-wreck!!! She is the center of our universe!

Karina, this is for you: SURI CRUISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (hee hee hee)

I have a feeling I have something else to do this week. Something important, but I just can't seem to remember what it is.......... I hate when that happens!

Until next time.....

Raising my grade

So I'm here at work, and my boos just left. She has a meeting and depending how long it lasts, she may not be back. I hope it takes a while. I like being alone in the office. ^_^

I had a Managerial Economics exam last Thursday. I studied for that shit like crazy, and as soon as i got the test, i began to freak out. Now only was she giving us these random things that made no sense, but i just blanked out. The fact that I heard people saying "WTF?" and "OMG" made me feel better. I wasn't alone...... Needless to say, i started going through the questions, panicking more and more as I read them. What should have been simple procedures, were difficult analytical problems. They required about 4 steps in order to get an answer. Then we had to use that answer and apply it to a formula we had to memorize in order to get another answer which we would then plug into another formula to get the final answer.. Then we would move to part "b". (Keeping up??) IT WAS HORRIBLE!

Luckily, I got through them after many attempts in trying to regurgitate the formulas from my mind. I felt confident that i passed the exam. Maybe not with an A, but i thought i did fairly well.....

....which leads us to today. I get to class and people start asking me "What did you get? What did you get???" I wasn't aware that the grades were posted online, so I whip out my Iphone and log into my account. 75 points out of 100. It didnt seem so bad to me considering the average score was 66 points. I have to admit, I was disapointed in my grade. Steve,the guy that sits next to me, had a 87. People were bitching about the exam, and she started going over it.

I noticed that she marked 2 multiple choice questions that I got right, wrong. After class, I went up to her and pointed out the mistake. She apologized and made a note to change my grade. Those two questions alone were more than I needed. It boosted my grade to 88 points!!! YAY!!!! The highest grade in the class was a 96. We all heard that she curves the final grade HUUUUGE! I should be good as long as i average above the class average. With her curve, i should be set to pass the class.

This class is definetely my hardest one. Im determined to pass it with a high grade. Looks like i have to hit the books harder than i anticipated cuz its only gunna get tougher the further into the book we go.

I am soooo NOT looking forward to that.

Until next time......

Brotherly Love

So I wake up today and dread the fact that I have to study for my Business Information Systems class, and jump at the opportunity to go with my bro to Samy's Camera to help him pick one out. Ill find anything to do in order to not study, (like writing this blog!!). So we go, and to make myself feel better, i take the powerpoint slides that i have to review. Do I review them on the way there? YES!!! only 1 page.....

So we get to Samy's and I help him get his Nikon D80 camera with a lens, a filter, memory card, carrying case, and well the whole shebang!! That's when I hear the most wonderful words ever! "Pick out a lens, I'll buy it for you." "Really!, OK cool, thanks!!" is all I could muster out. So I pick a lens, not knowing how much it was. Turns out its retail price was somewhere near $260. EEK!!!! It didn't matter, he still bought it for me! I really appreciated it! On top of that he got me the Office:Mac 2008 Edition so I can use for school. Hell, I really needed it, so even more reason to appreciate it. THANK YOU AL!!!!! Sally Field said it best.... "You Like Me, You REALLY like me!!!"

Now I should go and study. I have the book and notes all over my table in the kitchen, cuz I'll get too distracted in my room. I'm not a good studier..... ugh!! I blame my sickness cuz before I never liked doing it, but I did it and had a good method of doing it. Now, its like blah!!!! so sloppy. I have 4 chapters to go through and I'm like 1/2 way through the first. YAY ME!!

Until next time.......


Been A While.....

I was cleaning my room today and noticed my Macbook on a shelf. I havn't used it for what i wanted to use it, and decided that today is a good time to start. I wanted to vlog, but i just don't have the time to edit the damn videos. With work, School taking up most of my day and afternoons, I don't have too much time left. I tend to get home and just work on my homework, or sometimes catch something on TV for a lil while.

School has been taking its toll with me...... Too much work, and I'm already stressing out. I have a year and a half left......almost there.....I will NOT give up now. Last Saturday I stayed home and actually did homework. How LAME!! I don't think that i have done that in years....or ever. Maybe since high school???

hopefully I can now stick to blogging more often cuz I'm know my lazy ass wont vlog. At least not till summer, or till I have some more free time.

I BLAME ZAC EFRON FOR EVERYTHING!!!! ^_^
