where have I been!?!?!

Well now that I have completely lost the attention of the few people who read my blog, I will start up again:)

Things have been a wee bit busy here, but lets not kid ourselves I should always have two seconds in my day to give you all an update.

So I apologize for being lazy.

So here goes... what has been happening
~Spring Break I went home for four days and had a wonderful time with the fam and Lake Joy fam! Then I flew down to Newport Beach and met up with about a dozen of my friends and got completely spoiled by my friend's mom. More about that when I have time...
~For my RLCA job (the event planning on campus one) I have been on the committee for hiring next year's group. This involved reading 32 applications, interviewing 32 people (at least once) and doing all the behind the scenes organization and planning.
~Two weekends ago the Swifts rescued me from campus and brought me to Carmel for the weekend. It was amazing! We had so much fun and the weather was perfect!
~I applied to be the president of psychology club next year and I got it! I have my first meeting today with the president from this year so she can pass all her wisdom down to me!
~I went from Semester at Sea planning to El Salvador planning to road trip across USA planning and I've landed on going to India for 5 weeks this summer! When I have more than two seconds I will for sure write more about this one because its actually happening! I've already been accepted into the program!
~I am applying to be an Ambassador on campus (one of the polo wearing, tour giving, hand gesturing students who try to convince students to come to this fabulous school!) I made it past round one and I find out at the end of the month.
~Classes are insaine this quarter! I have 5!!!!! and three are upper division psychology classes!!

This is going to be a CRAZY quarter!

AT&T

Sorry I haven't written in a while.......
I got to go to the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am Golf Tourney last weekend! It was amazing! Here are some pics...
These are my next year roomies at Alex's beach house in Carmel. Our house is named Love house so we spell out Love wherever we go
This is the gang at the Pebble Beach Golf Tourney. It was a bit windy.

We were pumped!


I got to shake Bill Murrey's Hand!!!

This is me and my valentine Justin Timberlake!!!!

Baby Mama

If a woman, who by all means seems to be a great mother wants to have seven children she can have seven children. If she has been able to afford to feed and take care of all six of her previous children and continue to go to school, she had every right to want to have a final child with the last remaining eggs she had frozen. If God blessed her by giving her eight babies for the six eggs (which is statistically impossible) than obviously He has a great plan and full faith in her abilities. For people to call this woman irresponsible for miraculously and accidentally getting pregnant with octuplets instead of just one child is ridiculous. All of her other children seem happy and safe and healthy and I wish her the best of luck with her eight new blessings.

Weekend with the fam

This past weekend I got to hang out with Janet and my mom in Soquel (Grandma flew in Sunday afternoon). It was really relaxing and I made sure to take advantage of being off campus; appreciating the dead silence as a fell asleep (opposed to the obnoxious yelling and music in the dorms till three AM), the fresh fruit as a snack (versus cheeze-its), the private shower (versus public wear I have to wear my shoes), and the dinners out (opposed to at least two pbjs a day). Thanks for havin me Kiwi!

Tonight I will be going out to dinner again with the fam to celebrate my mother becoming elderly:) She turns 50 today!!!
Happy Bday Mom!

740 Locust Street

I have a house next year!
I suggest google earthing it. It is precious:) It's two bedroom, two blocks from school, one block from safeway, right across the street from all my guy friends, and REALLY cheap! I will be rooming with Ali again and Kelsey and Alex will share the other room. We got a great deal because Kelsey's dad knows the property manager.
Check one off my year's goals!!!!
