Reality, Check!

I am more than proud and excited to say that I only have one final remaining! Tomorrow morning at 10am I will be presented with the last college exam of my life!! And as I sit here at our student recreation center (Wrec), laptop open, trying to study for the upcoming final, I suddenly realized that my life as I've known it for the last 4.5 years ends tomorrow. But with that realization comes one that the rest of my life will truly begin tomorrow! Everything I've become used to as my reality will be changed and replaced. It's a scary thought, a strange thought, a confusing and unbelievable thought, but also an incredibly exciting one. But if I'm being completely honest, as I promise to always be with you, the feelings of excitement I used to feel are no where to be found at the current moment. They are replaced by feelings of fear and uncertainty. Fear that my life may not work out in the way I hope it will, and uncertainty because I know the things I want in life are among the biggest of all dreams. However, it is in my nature to believe that I can make anything happen and achieve whatever I set out to, so my optimism will return and I will be overtaken by the knowledge that I've held onto for the last few months: God has an incredibly big plan for my life. I do not yet know what it is, where it will take me, or anything that it might involve, but I do know that it is great and will be worth while. We're going to do very big things together and make a positive impact and change on this wonderful world He's created. 


And now that I've once again used this blog as a self-help/calming sesh, I will return to my studies. One of my roommates has hit the landmark I will reach tomorrow (completion of undergrad studies) and we are celebrating tonight! Which means I need to get all my studying in now so I can really let loose and help her celebrate the beginning of the rest of her life!


Today's quote is one that I use, and will always use, to help me stay on track and keep my ultimate goal in mind (ultimate goal being to make a positive change in the world, help people, and help guide the world towards peace and unity): "Be the change you wish to see in the world." -Gandhi 

One Down and I'm Turnt

One final down (services marketing) and "only" five more to go! One tonight, two tomorrow, one Wednesday, and one on Thurs! Just wanted to put up some love to everyone else that is going through what we Chico students are right meow..a week of hard work and cramming all the semester's knowledge in in a day! Keep up the good work all of you out there, the pay-off will be grand! Good luck on all those final exams, and just think about the future! 


Speaking of the future, I found this video last night and was so TURNT by it, that I felt the need to share it with all of you!


A.D.D. Drift: "Turnt" is a word that is commonly used, especially in the recent months, by my roomies and I to describe something we really, really like, and are a little "turnt on" by.

How sexualllllll! For probably 5 years now I have debated on getting a tattoo, but never thought it to be a wise choice. Since I cannot make a decision and stick to it, or make a decision and then want that outcome just as soon as it's happened, I know without a doubt that I should not put anything permanent on my bod. I would be the person to get a tattoo, like it for a millisecond, and then want to get something else. Either that, or my incredibly ADDictive personality would kick in on high-drive and I would automatically be examining my body for the location of the next. So here I will patiently wait, in the library, studying like a good little estudiante (student) should, for this to find its way into my life!

I Can Taste It

The end of my college career is coming to a close, it's so close, I can taste it! In four days, after hundreds of flashcards, spending more hours in the library than at my own home, and completing six finals, I will no longer be able to fill in my occupation as "student" on anything...ever again. So what comes next? What will my next occupation be? Here is a short list of things that I wish were suitable and acceptable answers:

• Peace maker
• Traveler
• Nomad
• Little kid trapped in a grown up's body
• Socialite 
• Foodie
• Ball of energy
• Person to offer encouragement to others
• Motivator
• Free spirit 

And that is all that my congested head cares to think up at the moment 8P

I've finished the flashcards for both finals I have tomorrow (services marketing and retailing), but now must get to the 'hard' part of actually memorizing them. So now this A.D.D. drift of a post will conclude, so I can learn fast, and go to sleep even faster :) 

My reminder of the week: In four days it will all be over, so you better work hard b/c you don't want to look back and regret not finishing strong and putting in all the effort you possibly could!
