Valentine's Day Weekend (very late)

I feel so bad because I have had no motivation to blog lately. Nothing really exciting has happened lately. Well lets think.

My grandma's birthday was good. There were tons of people there for the open house. It was pretty funny when my uncle and I went to Olive Garden and told them that we needed a table for 23 people plus a highchair. There faces were so hilarious. It makes it even funnier knowing that is not all of my family. Haha. Oh well, large families ftw.

Valentine's day was also pretty good. We went to Grimaldi's Pizzeria which amazing. The pizza is so freaking good. The only thing that sucked was the waitress accidentally spilled our drinks on me but other than that it was good. We then went to Barnes and Noble where I finally bought all three of John Green's books. Then Luke had to write a paper so I started on Looking for Alaska. It is so good and everyone should go and read it. Well then we went to Burger King for dinner. We saw the movie Valentine's Day which is pretty good. I was a little surprised at the end. Sorry no spoilers.

I cannot really think of anything else blog worthy of importance.

Random Updates about a Boring Life

I love to write. I really do. It is a great way to get feelings out when you can't do else wise. It does not even have to be the emotion that I am feeling. The only problem is my life is pretty boring during the week. I feel pretty bad that I don't blog more than I do. I pretty much only blog on the weekends because that is when all the fun and exciting things happen it my life. During the week I pretty much only go to class, eat, do homework, work, sleep, and hang out with some friends in between all of that. That is pretty boring and no one want to hear it or read it and I do not want to write about it. I hope that my life will get more exciting soon.

The weird thing about sleep with me is how I am just not that tired anymore. I used to be like tired all of the time. Now I get about 6 or 7 hours of sleep and I am wide awake until that night when I am going to sleep. This is a pretty weird feeling for me because it has never happened like this before. Not that I am complaining at all. It makes me feel like a functioning human being.

Well as for this weekend, there are two very important event coming up. Number 1, on Saturday, it is my Grandma's 80th birthday. That is pretty exciting. The family is going to gather at her house and hang out. Number 2, on Sunday it is Valentine's Day. That is also pretty exciting. Though I have no idea what I am doing. Luke keeps saying that he is going to surprise me but I believe that is just code for 'I have no idea what to do so I am just saying this so it does not look that way'. Well I don't really care. The truth is that I have not even got him something nor do I think I will.

Love ya,

Weekend Updates

What a great weekend. Long but wonderful.

Friday was my brother and sister's confirmation. That was so amazing. Being a part of their whole journey has been amazing and wonderful. Then so see them in front of the whole Church asking God to be a part of their lives forever was breathtaking. I am so proud of the entire group. I have seen them grow so spiritually throughout the last year.

Saturday, I worked and watched people "enjoying" the "homecoming." Basically my college has decided that it is high school and therefore we must need to have homecoming. They had a little carnival type thing outside were there was like no body there. That was interesting. They made the people working it wear mums which is a very high school thing to do.

If anyone who is not from Texas and is reading this, during homecoming week in high school, girls were huge mums on Friday with tons of ribbons and bells and lights and anything else people can possible thing of putting on them. Some mums are so big they cannot be pinned to the girls' shirt and then must be worn around the next. The mums then usually get hung on the girls' wall for the rest of high school.

All the students were not that trilled with this homecoming cause basically, we are NOT in high school any more and that is something that they need to learn.

Today has been pretty chill. Woke up, went to mass, went to Whataburger, and has been goofing around on the internet since then. Yay for lazy Sundays.

Love ya,
Christina

P.S. My roommate is cooking noodles and they smell so good right now.

Writing Time Baby

I have started writing something. I doubt that anything will come of it. I do not even know if I will even finish it. I just got really inspired last nigh as I stared out the window watching the rain. It was amazing. There I was just avoiding doing anything by staring out the window and then the next thing I know, this story just pops in my head and I am like wow. So I start writing. I do not know where it is going to go right now but I hope it goes well. In the mood of Harry Potter, it is about a young witch. It is not going to be exactly like Harry Potter of course but there will be thing like magic, owls, and learning magic of course. Who knows, maybe one day I could finish it and it could be published.

Well other than that. Life has been pretty good. The only thing I feel bad about is that I have not been able to spend that much time with Luke. I feel really bad about this. It is just that my life is so busy and I am really, really, really happy. I have made some amazing friends who I spend so much time with now mainly because they live on campus like me. Luke on the other hand still lives at home and goes there right after he finished classes. Then on top of that I have work and I have been really busy with my church because of my sister's confirmation and me being her sponsor. I feel like I need a vacation for my life. The next time Luke and I are probably going to go out is for Valentine's day. I will most like cook him dinner so that will be nice.

Love ya,
Christina

Another Post YAY!!!!

It has been a while and I am very bored at work right now and I thought that I should blog. This weekend was very fun. I had a blast with my friend just doing the most random things. Where to start.

On Friday, there was costume dodgeball. I didn't play but I went to go watch. It was so funny watching with Maria because she is so competive and really gets into games. Well the finally two teams were the basketball team and the basketball team and if you ask me, that is not fair to everyone else who wanted to play but whatever. Afterwards, Maria, Fernanda, Rakel, Angela, and I went to House of Pies to eat. We had to be back at school by 9 because that was when Maria had to work. So we rush back not before Angela tried to kill us by trying to run us over. Well we make it in time. Rakel, Angela, and I decide to sit with Maria so she is not bored. We ended up playing Catch Phrase. Then we decided to dance to Single Ladies. It was hilarious.

On Saturday, I woke up early to do laundry which is no fun at all. I then was bored out of my mind at work. Then after I got off work, a whole bunch of people decide to cook spagetti. That was delicious. Then Maria made brownies from scratch. Those were amazing. Then we all played Balderdash and Taboo. And once again Maria was very competive and funny.

Sunday was my very lazy day. I did not get up till 12:30. It was so awesome. When I finally got out of bed, I went to Subway and then to Kroger to get Gen some supplies to make milkshakes. Those were so good and such a blast making them. I do think watching Maria dance and sing to Matellica was way more fun. Anyways, then I had to go to Church and as I was walking out Angela came downstairs. That was the first time I had seen her all day. We went to chuch together. Afterwards we made a quick stop at Starbucks and then off to Jenny's appartment. We were suppose to be doing homework but we ended up talking for 2 hours instead.

Yesterday was a pretty chill day. I went to class, watched some youtube videos, ate, watched some youtube videos, ate, went to class, and then watched some youtube videos. It was a pretty good Monday. Today has pretty much been the same thing except right now I am at work and I cannot get on facebook. :(

Love ya,
