Loooooooooooong Week

This week has been so long. The retreat was amazing. It was an amazing feeling being in the woods and just talking about God the entire time. But the retreat was too short and then I was back at school. School has been going really well. It is just that I have work, Luke, Catholic Daughters, and working out on top of that. Like today. I was in class all morning. Then I rushed off to Crooker to grab some lunch to go, then headed into Guinan to cover Angela's desk shift. Then tonight I have my real job and then maybe go and work out afterwards.

I just feel so tired. I am so grateful that I only have one class tomorrow so then I can maybe sleep some afterwards.

Love ya,

Life is busy

Life has been a little busy. I just finished my first week of the semester. It has been pretty good just lots of homework already. Work also has started up again but its has been slow and quiet. That has been really good. Not much else has happened.

This weekend I will be going on my sister's confirmation retreat. I hope that goes well.

Love ya,

Looooong Weekend

It has been a couple of full days for me.

Saturday, I was woken up at 8:30 in the morning by my dad. The good thing was that he made me pancakes so that made up for it. After breakfast, I pack up all my stuff in my car and I head out to school to move back in. I left later than I was planning on it but I did not think it was going to be that big of a deal. The drive was pretty uneventful until I exited I-45. It turns out that they had Allen Parkway blocked off and they had us going onto this other street that put us into downtown. I had no idea where I was going now so I called my dad and he was able to get me out of downtown. He then told me to turn on Westheimer but I did not know it had a differnt name where I was and missed it. I ended up on 59 but then I was able to exit Shepherd and found my way to school.

The detour put me even further behind schedule. I got out, checked in, grabbed a cart, and started to move in. Then it decided it was a good time to rain. So that was so much fun. I finally got everything into my room and put it all away.

I then headed out the door to head to Memorial City Mall for Gloria's Birthday. By the time I got there, I was an hour late but I was not the last one there. We then headed to the food court for lunch and waiting for the others to get here. After everyone arrived we went to the skating rink and had a fun time for about 2 hours of trying not to fall on our butts.

After this I left and drove to Luke's house to get his lazy butt. We then went to Red Robin to join them for dinner. The food was so good and there were tons of laughing. Luke and I then left and rented Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. All in all, it was a good day. I then head back to school after what felt like forever.

The next day I made it for mass just in time. Afterwards, Angela and I headed to Crooker for breakfast/lunch. We were talking about what we wanted to do so we decided to go to the zoo. We grab Rakel and we head off. It was so much fun but we were very tired after 3 hours of walking non-stop. We then decided to have milkshakes from 59 diner.

We head back to school and decide to watch Fools Rush in but the media room was reserved so we watched in Rakel's room with Darnel, Maria, Fernanda, and Chris. Darnel, Maria, and Fernanda had to leave to go to mass so we watched the Golden Globes.

Today on the other hand has been very lazy. My dad took me to lunch at Subway and then to Office Depot so I could get a desk calander. I then bought my books with Luke. That was pretty much my day.

End of Christmas Holiday

I find that I am at the end of my Christmas Holiday. It makes me sad because I have really enjoyed my break but at the same time, I am really happy to be going back to school tomorrow. The one good thing about this break is that I have been able to relax and enjoy myself. Even though this has not been the best week, it still has been fun.

I found that the first part of my break was very busy and I was always having things to do. But after that thing settle down and then turned into a break. I remember telling my friends at school that I was not going to know what to do with myself this break by not having something to do every second of every day. I thought to myself that I might actually watch tv, a thing I have stopped doing this semester, but I find myself continuing this but I still have watched a few shows that I like over the break. What I really have been doing is reading. Which is great because I love reading and have not been able to do that over the semester. The only reading I had really done was for classes and not what I enjoy doing.

What I have been reading is Harry Potter. It really makes me miss those days when I was obssessed with it. I have been spending this week and last week reading whenever I have had the chance. It is great even though my mom does not like me staying up too late reading, I just cannot help myself. I just get sucked into the stories. I love them so much. It just makes me wish that magic was real and that I could go off into this world and live my life there. Oh well.

Body Image

I wonder does anyone really know what they should look like. I am so sick of people saving that someone is too fat or too skiny. I mean who cares as long as that person is happy right? It has just become so annoying.

My parents are always talking about my weight. It just makes me so freaking annoyed. I do not think that it is any of their business. Just because I am not stick skinny does not mean I'm not beautiful. In my own mind, I do not see that. I just see me being happy and I think that is all that matters anyways. Why should I care that I am not a stick. I feel that they do not even have a right to say if they are going to call me fat and then do nothing about themselves. It just drives me crazy and want to get back to school right now.

I know that I am not a stick but I am in no ways fat. Sure, it would not be horrible if a lost a few pounds but really, it does not matter. I really wish that my parents would just get off my back and let me live my life.

This all the media's fault. People look at people like Paris Hilton and think I must look just like her to beautiful and happy but you don't have to. As long as you yourself think you are beautiful then that is all that matters. I just wish people would stop worring about stupid things like this and just life each day to the fullest and enjoy themselves.

Well I suppose that is enough a rant for today.

GRRRRRR!!!!

I HATE TECHNOLOGY!!!!!!!!!! There I said it. It is just giving me a headache. So I have never been very good with it before but right now it is just horrible. I am trying to make a video to put up on my youtube channel. Before I would just record something and upload it. This time after I recorded something, I tried to record a little intro for it. So all I am trying to do is merge the two together. But first it turns out I didn't have movie maker so my dad downloaded for me but it is not working. GRRRRRR. If anybody just happens to reads this and feels sorry for me, it would be so nice if someone could help me out here. I really feel like punching someone in the face right now but I won't cause I am just too nice.

Now that I have gotten that off my chest I feel better. I guess it is now back to watching Harry Potter and trying to figure this out.
Love ya,

Gettingg Started

So I doubt that anyone is going to read this but I really do not care. I just wanted something to share my life.

So it is 9 days into the new year and I believe that things have been good. Just really cold-- well at least for Houston it is very cold. Despite that, I have decided that I want to live in London for a year. I am obssessed with England for some reason that I can't figure out. I think that so much has happened there that I can't imagine going to a better place for a year. I think it would be amazing if I could even teach there one day when I finish school of course.

So right now I am waiting till I get to leave and see Luke. I am pretty excited to actually be able to go out on a date cause it has been a while.

So I think I should start every paragraphy with the word so. It could be pretty funny. Anywho... it is cold and I have other thing to do today so this is where it shall end.

Love ya,
Christina

ps. I really wish some times that my name would be spelt Kristina instead of Christina
