Even though the excitement of summer is drawing in, I’m also really sad to leave this year behind. It’s definitely been the best year of my life! The end of the year is always when I become nostalgic. This was also the biggest change of my life as I moved away from home to be surrounded by a...
Nothing compares with freshman year! Congrats!
The celebration begins! Although finals are not over I'm definitely starting the celebration early. Tonight I will finally have some much needed fun. It's one of my best friend's birthdays so tonight we are celebrating in downtown LA which much needed drinks and music. All of us have been so busy with school and work that it is our first night out in a while. Being the procrastinators that we are, we waited until the last minute to put everything together. After an hour in line we finally made it in. The music, drinks and weather couldn't be better. Nothing says summer nights more than bottle service at the patio, overseeing our beautiful city. So cheers to the end of spring quarter, the beginning of summer and a new set of memories.
LEGO. I absolutely love Lego (and no, it is not “Legos”). Me in a Lego store is like a little kid in a candy store (or I suppose, a Lego store works for that too). I love looking at all the new sets – especially the Lego Modular Buildings. These sets are geared toward an older audience (16+). They’re generally a lot more detailed and have more pieces than a typical Lego set. Additionally, these sets typically have three “floors” that are detachable and all the buildings can be connected to form a “street”.
For my birthday two years ago, I got the Green Grocer set and for Christmas last year I got the Grand Emporium set. It took me about six hours spread over three days to complete the Green Grocer. The Grand Emporium took about five hours spread over three days. I basically did one floor a day. I began by laying out all the pieces on my living room floor and sorted it by color and size. Each floor comes with its own instruction booklet that shows you how to put together the building layer by layer, or in Lego terms, brick by brick. Time really flies when I’m building. I love seeing each floor come together. When all the three floors are done, putting the whole building together is the best part. The satisfaction of seeing the full building that I put together is incomprehensible! I know it sounds a bit silly since they’re only Lego buildings, but it really is something I love to do.
My goal is to collect all the modular buildings. However, that is near impossible now because a lot of the older buildings are not made anymore. Sadly, the price of those buildings on Amazon or Ebay is now upwards of $400, most of them range from $499 to $599. That is over $300 more than the original price of the buildings - $150. I hope that they will continue releasing new buildings so my collection can grow. Next on my list? The Pet Shop/Town House (two buildings in one!) and City Hall!
That is the coolest I've seen in a while! I used to play with these all the time! I love how all of the cool 90's toys are making a comeback!
Friday..No Funday!
15 hour day..kill me now! I arrived at work today super excited. It's Friday and for the first week since the beginning of the quarter I am all caught up with my work, which means finally some fun time. My friends and I were planning to go out tonight and celebrate my best friend's graduation but thanks to work, I will no longer be attending. Our closing manager decided to call out tonight which means that I have now become the closing manager. I arrived at work at 10 a.m. today and now I will be stuck here until 2 a.m. There are no words to describe how disappointed I am. I usually don't mind staying and being a team player but really?? today! Out of all the nights?! The worse part is breaking the news to my best friend. I felt horrible but I know that at the end of the day she will understand. Cheers to another night of all work and no play!
Twenty-Two days left! Summer can’t come soon enough, and I can honestly say I cannot wait!! This year has been a long a stressful one to say the least. I have had some stressful classes and have dealt with some frustrating obstacles in my life during this school year. I feel that summer is just an...
I feel the exact way! Summer needs to come quick! I just booked my room in Vegas for next month and that's all I can think about, when clearly finals should be my biggest concern. Hang in there, Three more weeks until freedom!
This weekend I will finally be doing something to ease my mind off of school madness. We just finished making new additions to our house and I will finally be able to remodel my room. Being the compulsive buyer that I am, a quick trip to ikea quickly turned into a shopping spree. I kept telling myself, "New room, new look". I ended up buying a new dresser, comforter, pillows, frames, and wall decor. So much for a quick trip!?! My last stop was at Home Depot. A new look wouldn't be complete without some new colors. After comparing tons colors I finally decided on the two that fit my decor the best. I cannot wait to start painting tomorrow. Painting has always been a way for me to relieve some stress. Not only will I be finishing my new room, I will also finally be getting a much needed break from school work.
Every Sunday I try to free up some time to spend with my godson. Every week I try to take him somewhere different so we can try new things. Last Sunday, I took him to a kids "knowledge is fun event" and he was beyond excited. The event consisted of a mile long run, along with games and educational booths. There were two booths available: One booth had dental assistants that were teaching kids how to brush properly. The other booth consisted of art teachers showing kids how to draw. My godson, also participated in the mile long run and even finished in 3rd place! He received a medal and an award for his accomplishment. I couldn't believe that he came in 3rd place. It was amazing to see him become so active and interact with other kids. It makes me love Sunday Funday even more.
I will be going on a missions trip with my church in the summer to Haiti. I have to write a letter asking for support for this trip, and here’s what i wrote.
Hello!
I’m writing to share some exciting news! This summer, I have the opportunity to spread the love of our Lord in Haiti for a…
This is so cool! I’ve always wanted to go on a missions trip to spread God’s love, but I never got the chance. Good luck, I’ll pray for ya :)
This is amazing! Good luck to you. :)
As discussed in Com 300, I feel I’ve hit that wall.
The past week I have been in a bit of a daze that I just recently shook off last night. I felt like my brain had stopped working but school kept going. On the start of the week I had a midterm to study for, was finally given the schedule for my...
Hang in there, summer is almost here. I felt like I was going to pull out my hair this week. I guess all we can say is that it will pay off in a couple years.
Mid terms + Inventory = Zombie Student
Earlier this week we mentioned how many of us feel like we have hit the wall, well let's just say I feel like I smashed the wall. As if studying for midterms wasn't stressful enough, this week I also had to worry about our merchandise inventory at work. For those who are not familiar with how the inventory process for retailers works, you basically have a team of people come and scan every single item in your store. In theory this doesn't seem difficult, but in reality, it is the second most dreaded date in retail, black Friday being the first of course. In the past week I worked over 50 hours. As if working 13 hours a day wasn't tiring enough, I still had to go to school, do homework, and study for midterms right after. Let's just say this has been one of the longest weeks of my life! I completed my last midterm today and as much I wish I could just sleep all weekend, I still have work and school to worry about.
I am now regretting taking seven classes.
All my work is getting piled up and the class I regret the most is my bio lab class because it is on Fridays from 3-5:50pm. I have no clue why I scheduled it that way. I am not only losing hours at work, but it is cutting away from other things I need to...
You are brave for taking 7 classes, I definitely commend you. I took 5 classes last quarter and in between my school work and my job, I was ready to die. It sounds like you have a fun summer planned! Don't worry summer will be here before you know it.
The Emerald City...
Last April, I had the opportunity to visit Seattle, Washington, and I instantly fell in love with the city. I stayed there for 5 days, but it was no way near enough time to finish exploring the amazing city.
There are 3 places that everyone should go if they get a chance to visit Seattle. The first one is the Seattle Space Needle. An elevator takes you up hundreds of feet to the needle's restaurant, where you can enjoy a nice dinner as you circulate the city. It sounds nauseating, but it is not. The rotating occurs so slowly, that you forget that you were even moving.
The second place is the Pike Market, also known as their Farmers Market. You can find booths that sell everything from pigs' feet to the beaded bracelets. If you are grocery shopping or looking for souvenirs, this is definitely the place to find them.
Lastly, if you are visiting Seattle you must take the underground tour of the city. As you go underground, tour guides provide you with the history of the city and how it evolved into the city it is today. This tour is better if it is done at night, since the tour concludes with drinks at a bar.
I had an amazing time in Seattle and I cannot wait to visit again and continue exploring the rest of the city.
Have you ever imagined what’s behind the cloud? Especially behind those thick clouds which look like they are trying to hide something from people’s naked eyes.
I used to be a kid full of unrealistic imaginations. However, as I grow older, I suppressed my imaginations in order to become a...
I completely agree with you! I used to think the same when I was younger and now I don't even remember the last time I stopped and looked up at the sky. We get so wrapped up in our busy lives that we forget about the little things in life. I have a 4-year-old godson who is very inquisitive. As we were getting back from an ice cream trip last night, he asked if I knew how many stars where in the sky. Kid you not I do not remember when was the last time I had stopped and looked up at the moon or the stars until last night! When I was younger I used to love camping out and looking up at the stars and making up names for them. It's very sad to see our imaginations fade away.
Video Game Addictions...
I have never understood how people can become addicted to video games. Every time I see people playing games, especially on their phones, it intrigues me. How can someone be so consumed by a video game to the point where they have it downloaded on their phones? Well let's just say I finally found out why.
Yesterday, as I was looking through my app store on my phone, I came across the most amazing app: the Super Mario World Nintendo game. This used to be my favorite video game when I was younger, so I immediately purchased it. I have been playing this game nonstop and I know understand why people play video games on their phones.
I am so addicted to this game and even though I have passed the entire game several times before, I still feel the same thrill and excitement I felt 13 years ago. In the last day I have had to charge my phone battery three times since the game is killing my battery life.
As I sat there playing the game I could not help but to laugh. I finally realized why some people are so addicted to video games, you truly cannot help it. I tried to stop and I just could not. The closer I got to the final level, the more adrenaline I felt. It reminded me of when I used to hog the remote control from my sister because I did not want to stop playing. It is a shame of what video games can do to us.
As addicting as this game is, it was nice to take a trip down memory lane. Super Mario video games were a tremendous part of my childhood, and it was the perfect way to relieve some stress. Although I should probably delete it because it is too much of a distraction, I do not think I am ready to do it just yet, I still have 3 levels left before I defeat Koopa.
As I mentioned in my last blog, I have a passionate love for peanut butter. The past 36 days have been the hardest of my life. Why? Because I gave up peanut butter for lent.
Before the day of Ash Wednesday began, my dorm was filled with two jars of peanut butter, Tag-a-longs (the best girl scout...
I commend you! I don't think I could have given up peanut butter, I love it way too much! I gave up Starbucks for lent and it is probably one of the dumbest things I have ever done! Going through finals caffeine free was not pretty, I cannot wait until lent is over.
Let's Bury the Hatchet...
One of the ways that my company gives back to our community is through our organization Kohl's Cares. This organization was established to help and support the children in our communities to live better lives. The way our organization works is very simple. Our company will donate $500 to any non profit organization that benefits the health and wellness of children, however there is a catch. In order to receive the donation, each store must volunteer at one of the organization's events.
I am very active in this program and I always encourage my associates to participate. Last Saturday, my team and I volunteered with the Boys Hope Girls Hope Club of Orange County. The event was called "Let's Bury the Hatchet", and during this event we helped the organization rebuild their youth center. The youth center is where the children complete their homework and spend the majority of their time in. At the event, we were all given hatchets to help with the cutting of the wood. Once we started cutting wood we realized that the hatchets symbolized more than just a tool. Each member of the organization was given a hatchet to contribute, but also to bury any problems they were facing. The event turned out to be a way for these kids to relieve their frustrations and put their hopes and dreams into their youth center. The event symbolized a new beginning for these kids and it was amazing to be part of.
Through our volunteering we helped Boys Hope Girls Hope get one step closer into completing their youth center. Through our volunteering, Boys Hope Girls Hope will also be receiving a $500 donation from Kohl's, which will help them buy the rest of their supplies.
It is amazing the impact you can make in someone's life in just couple hours. Although my team and I were only there for a short time, it was something that these kids will never forget. Every child deserves the opportunity to succeed, and it was very rewarding to know we were able to contribute to that.
