  • Summer!

    So I'm finally graduated..... Somehow I don't feel like I accomplished anything though.  I might feel better if I knew exactly what I was going to do.  Oh well, I really don't have anyone to blame but myself.  While playing the waiting game, I am trying to study for the MCAT again.  Not really sure how that's going.  We'll find out, whenever I take the MCAT I guess.  So what am I doing for the summer?  I think I'll be going to NYC with my cousins and visit an uncle there, as well as sight seeing.  I also want to visit my other cousins in Chicago, hopefully spend a week there.  I also want to go visit my grandparents and an uncle that live in Kansas.  So I would like this summer to just be a time to chill and catch up with family.  When I am going to do all of this?  Not sure.  I need to sit down and start planning everything.  There is just way too much uncertainty in my life and it would help to just put a few things in stone.  So in the next few days I should sit down with a planner and figure out what I'm going to do what.  I need to stop being so focused on the day to day things and start looking into the future a little.  I've become way to absorbed in living for today.  It's not a bad thing, but at the same time I can't lose sight of tomorrow.

  •       This has been a long day.  I hate Wednesdays, but I still like them.  I hate them because they are long and never seem to end.  I have class from 10- 11:15 then from 1-5.  We then usually have a chem TA meeting till 5:30.  At the beginning of the day it just seems like it will take a miracle to keep me going through the day.  The reason I like Wednesdays though, once I'm done with Wednesdays, I am usually done with the week.  I only have two classes on Thursday and although they are my science classes, I usually just have to show up to them.  I am done with the week by 1:15 pm, since I have no class on Fridays.  So when I reach 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, it means I have survived another week (a very good feeling).  Well today after my meeting, PT, LT, and I got together for dinner.  The last few weeks we get to spend together .  So as we were eating, LT came up with an idea; she proposed that we make a video of where we think we will be in ten years and we should get back together in ten years to go over it.  So we spent some time come up with a few realistic scenarios as well as some amusing scenarios.  Then we found an empty room and recorded it.  I had so much fun doing it and watching it again.  Hopefully, we will be able  to meet in ten years to go over it again.
           After, I got home and decided to watch the Spurs.  I love this team, but I don't know where they are headed.  They lost to the Suns.  In the west the Spurs are #2 and the Suns are #6, and they are separated by 1/2 a game.  The Western conference is crazy this season, a fifty win team will not make the playoffs- first time in NBA history.  The Spurs suck against the Western Conference teams that have made the NBA playoffs.  I don't think they will repeat as NBA champs, which saddens me cause the team will change this summer.  It will take a while to bring it all back together again and win a championship.  Oh well, I just have to get used to this fact and not raise my hopes every time the Spurs do well for a couple of games.  Inevitably they seem to come crashing down again, especially against good teams.  Not a good sign for the playoffs.  Yet, I'm still looking forward to this Sunday's game between the Spurs and the Lakers.  Apparently Bynum is coming back and it will give me a good look at the trio of Kobe, Pau, and Bynum. 
             Anyway I should go get some studying done now. I have a lot of stuff to catch  up on.

  • Time flies by

    It's already April 1st.  You know what that means?  In about six weeks I'm done with SLU.  I still waiting for someone to pinch me and tell me its not true.  Unfortunately that's not going to happen and I just have to realize the fact that I'm a senior and will be graduating and moving on.  Scary thought.  Why can't I always be the Toys R' Us kid?

  • A teenage girl about 17 had gone to visit
    some friends one
    evening
    and time passed quickly as each shared
    their
    various experiences of the past year.

    She ended up staying longer than
    planned,
    and
    had to walk home alone. She wasn't
    afraid
    because it was a small town and she lived
    only
    a
    few blocks away.

    As she walked along under the tall elm
    trees,
    Diane asked God to keep her safe from
    harm
    and
    danger.

    When she reached the alley, which was a
    short
    cut to her house, she decided to take it.

    However, halfway down the alley she
    noticed
    a
    man standing at the end as though he
    were
    waiting
    for her.

    She became uneasy and began to pray,
    asking
    for
    God's protection.

    Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness
    and
    security wrapped round her, she felt as
    though
    someone was walking with her.

    When she reached the end of the alley,
    she
    walked right past the man and arrived
    home
    safely.

    The following day, she read in the
    newspaper
    that
    a young girl had been raped in the same
    alley
    just
    twenty minutes after she had been there.

    Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and
    the
    fact
    that it could have been her, she began to
    weep.

    Thanking the Lord for her safety and to
    help
    this
    young woman, she decided to go to the
    police
    station.

    She felt she could recognize the man, so
    she
    told
    them her story.

    The police asked her if she would be
    willing to
    look
    at a lineup to see if she could identify
    him.

    She agreed and immediately pointed out
    the
    man
    she had seen in the alley the night
    before.

    When the man was told he had been
    identified,
    he
    immediately broke down and confessed.

    The officer thanked Diane for her bravery
    and
    asked if there was anything they could do
    for
    her.

    She asked if they would ask the man one
    question.

    Diane was curious as to why he had not
    attacked
    her.

    When the policeman asked him, he
    answered, "Because she wasn't alone.
    She
    had
    two tall men walking on either side of
    her."

    Amazingly, whether you believe or not,
    you're
    never alone. Did you know that 98% of
    teenagers
    will not stand up for God?

    Repost this as Love vs. Sex if you truly
    believe
    in
    God...


    PS: God is always there in your heart and loves you no matter what.....and if u stand up 4 him u would repost this

    I bet 93% of you people that read this wont repost it.

  • It's already March.  Where does the time go?  So tonight I went to see A Midsummer Night's Dream put on by SLU Theater.  I don't think I have laughed so much in a while.  During the first half, I was starting to fall asleep (what's new) cuz it was mostly setting the scene and stuff- the boring stuff.  During intermission, I went out and walked around for a bit.  Once we went back in, all of us sat down, and I don't think there was a single point in the second half were at least one of us wasn't laughing.  I really enjoyed tonight, probably the most fun, I have had in a while.
