End of my quarter!!

This is my second quarter in college and winter quarter is over this week!!!! This quarter has been a challenging one because I've been very lazy this quarter. College life is fun but I need to take school more serious when I first started in the fall I was all about school I couldn't wait to start and have homework I was so excited! I've always been a good student and I've always gotten good grades in school!!! I told myself me being lazy is going to change and I'm starting to have a better attitude towards school! I just feel like I'm never going to finish I feel like I'm going to be at school forever and it's so frustrating! Nobody in my family goes to college and I see them doing good and they have good jobs but I want more for myself I want a job that I love. My high school principal told me "success is waking up everyday being happy to go to work" he told me that's how you know your successful! I want to feel successful at work and make a difference! I don't mean to sound cheesy but I don't want just a paycheck for doing crap I want a paycheck for helping people and doing a great job at work. I'll get over this whole thing I'm going through with school it will pass! Next quarter will be a better and more positive one!

THESE PAST TWO WEEKS

These past two weeks have been hectic but I'm managing! Last weekend I got my first tattoo so I'm very happy about that!!! I got a rosary around my ankle it's really pretty! And it was also my mothers birthday so I bought her a stainless steel beautiful jewelry box and I got it engraved! She really loved her gift so I was really happy about that this is honestly the first year I've given my mom a birthday gift so I was really glad I was able too this year! We all went out to a very nice place for my moms birthday it was like all spanish music and a dance floor. I really don't care for spanish music but that's what she likes! This week I've been putting in at least an extra 20 hours a week at work so it's been crazy but I'm getting used to balancing work and school work now!!! Who knew college life would be so crazy I thought It would be easier, well not the work but the schedule I guess! I do homework now on my lunch break so that I dont have so much to do when I get home and it is working out great! This weekend I'm going to a concert and I'm really excited I'ts more like a festival thing but It's going to be fun!! I'm going to see Britney Spears next month in April and I'm very excited to see her!!! But the concert of the year is going to be the tickets to my No Doubt concert!! Oh My God I cannot wait to see them perform!!!! And this weekend I'm finally going to paint my room and my bathroom I can't wait my house is finally going to look like it has more than plain white walls!! Although we've lived there for about 3 years we havent got around to painting or deep decorating!! I'm excited and I have a busy week ahead of me with my last two finals 8)

MY WEEK SO FAR!!!

My week started out so hectic!!!!!! First of all I've been so busy at work its been crazy!! And I feel like this quarter has just been a big disaster, I'm not being a good student!!!! I've been lazy and I'm sure it will show in my grades this quarter!!! I'm dissapointed in myself for my negative attitude towards school I just think it's so hard to juggle school and work. I know I'm smart and that I'm better than this I just need to focus on school! I'm doing really good in my math class I'm just struggling in my psych class! And I'm so drained this week. I guess this could be my complain blog!
I better get my act together because I dont get C's and I'm not going to start now!!! I'm going to use this weekend to finish my essay for english class I'm really struggling with that essay! I'ts not that its hard I just think the thought of writing eight pages scares the crap out of me but I have 4 pages done already whats four more????? And I'm glad I chose an interesting topic I'm learning alot and I'm kind of enjoying writing this essay I just wish it didnt have to be so long!!!!
wish me luck!!!!!!!!!1

My next writing assignment!

I finally decided what I wanted to do my final essay on!! I have decided to do my essay on gay marriage and I chose this topic not only because its interesting but because I want to learn more about it. When it came to gay marriage I honestly dissagreed with it and mostly because of my religion and also because of the way I was raised but after some research I think prop 8 maybe shouldn't have been passed!!! This assignment is teaching me to be more open-minded and allowing me to see both sides of the situation. Prop 8 is a big deal in society today and I'm glad that I'm doing my essay on a meaningful, life changing topic!

the problem in my area....

I live in the city of Adelanto and I feel like I live by alot of crazy people. Lately its been bothering me because I feel like I cant go anywhere. So many crazy people moved to the desert because they think they can get away with whatever they want and the police need to start doing there job! Twice this year I have been followed to my car by strangers and there asking for money but seriously they are scaring the crap out of me. They like corner you and follow you around the store then to your car its not safe!
Last week me, my mom and my little sister decided to go to Rite Aid because we wanted ice cream... My mom decides to start buying all of this Valentines day crap and this heavy set man is following us down the aisle with his hand in his pants. Let me just say that he was doing gross things!!!!!!!! we dropped what we had and ran out of the store so scared! And what shocked me was that so many people seen him doing that and did nothing to stop him! This problem with people being weird and doing sick things needs to stop and something needs to be done about this problem! Where are the police when you need them??? And maybe I'm being a little bit dramatic but these situations can be alot worse...so basicaly this is the problem going on in my area and its starting to piss me off!

"Where I'm From"

I'm from a place that I call home

A place where I made my mark

A place where the sun shines bright

A place called Baldwin Park

I'm from a place that I call home

Where we are all equal

A place that is so relaing

But ghetto to some people

Where graduating was not a priority

I thougth that I was cursed

Nobody graduated in my family

So I'm proud to say that I'm the first

So now I'm at college

My success is very clean

I'm from a place where food is great

Where we eat rice and beans

I'm from a Christian family

My faith in God is true

I'm from a loving family

And never judged, but loved for being me
