Singing in the Rain

I passed my english class with flying colors. A perfect score. (Thanks for the brain rub Magali, i got another thing as well ;D) Throughout the whole train ride i was getting nervous. The closer i got, the more revolting my stomach felt. I couldn't remember feeling so nervous (besides last Friday ;)). I kept thinking bad things all through the ride. All this blogging has definitely paid off. As i foretold, most of the freshman were too airheaded to understand how important the test was. There was a girl in my class who couldn't stand the teacher. I thought he was pretty good. When she got her score, she BARELY passed. A 5+ and a 5- would've automatically failed her. But the goodhearted teacher was lenient on her and gave her a 6- (its required if there's 2 equal numbers, the professor of the student evaluate them as well). I pointed out that if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have moved on to the next level. There was about 1/4 of the class who didn't pass the exit exam. As all freshmen do, they started asking everyone whether they passed or not. It was kind of disrespectful for the ones who didn't ( I was once in that position). Few people got double 6's and i was one of them =). I literally jumped with joy in front of the professor lol. Then i was off to get me some breakfast at McDonald's ( i miss the egg mcmuffins) and i found my old manager Joey. (Wtf?!) I started talking to him for awhile and told him how much i missed the skank. I got a 3rd number haha. How strange that Pedro wasn't around. Either way, people were exchanging numbers to old classmates to keep in contact over the holidays. I hung out with some college friends, then with some of their friends, and eventually found Pedro (i see him everywhere) and Ana came with us. We talked about the old days and random things that came into mind. Pretty cool day...with droopy snowflakes.

"L"ady's Sidekick

One final down, two more to go. I should keep in mind Criminal Investigation for next semester. I'm slightly nervous at my outcome from english for tomorrow. A little bit. I can't believe how fast time is passing by...in less than a few weeks it's going to be a new year. Today wasn't so bad..i hung out with Pedro as usual. But before that, i was talking to Herminio when i notice a skank eyeing him from a distance. She went up to him and asked a really stupid question. Something about speech. I remember he told me that the class is already over and that it wasn't necessary to go the next day. I just remember hearing her giggling and curling her hair with her finger. I couldn't believe she actually did that. He was acting pretty normal though. I looked away for most of the conversation, but i bet if i wasn't there she would've suggested something more. I trust him, but i don't trust her. I didn't like it. Is it a crime to be jealous? I am overreacting? maybe a little. She had no idea that he was with me though...but i guess it served as a good test as to how he would treat other people.Well after that i went to the library to meet up Pedro. I found an old friend i knew since the beginning of my college years. After all this time i got his number lol...and behold Pedro steps in! We couldn't stop laughing. (Maybe he is lucky?) I took the final and left home early...at the Ashland stop though, i got a surprise on the pink line i was getting on. I swear i didn't realize she was there...i didn't see anyone on the train seat before yet she was there all along. Silly "L" waved at me as i finally got a seat. (wtf?!) It was pretty early when we got at the Kedzie stop. When we walked out i found Sammy and Juan from Farragut. (These people graduated after us..they were going to downtown to iceskate at 6PM...idk why) I said hello with hugs and kisses? (Juan stuck out his cheek) and both "L" and I were on our way to Walgreens. It became the second part of her journey...quest..adventure thing lol. Interesting day, no?

Freakin Finals

I finished my essay last night as promised (to myself). I still have a few things to do, some extra credit to cover, but now that the essay is done with i guess i can be a little lenient. That thing was really hard. I'm working on philosophy terms as we speak. I...can't wait for the semester to end. I want it over with. Done. Finished. No more until next year. There really isn't much going on except the pressures of finals in school. My family seems to be more...relaxed. Its very unusual to see them all this way. That or its gotten tense because my brother parked the van in an area where they broke the window. I'm not sure how the story goes, but it happened. That boy doesn't know when to appreciate what they give him. I have been Christmas shopping though...for myself lol. There's a million sales here and there...one in which i missed ($12 jeans at Old Navy...damn it!). Snow is everywhere now...including deadly ice. Love the fluffy white snow, hate the slippery bloody ice. Things have been running really smooth lately, so not much to complain about lol. That is until i get my english 101 results, then i'll begin to bawl and cry. My eating and sleeping pattern has changed drastically. I can't seem to stay up past 12:30 without almost falling asleep on the phone or computer. I wake up at 8AM on the dot everyday, even on weekends. My hunger is pretty much stronger 3 times a day. I hope that this isn't a bad sign. Or maybe it's because i've been drinking plenty of water. Who knows. All i know is that this winter is soooo interesting, there's no time for depressing thoughts.

Heaven on Earth

How do i describe how i feel? perfectly fine? completely happy? in a dreamy state? I feel wonderful. I went out with him and it was loads of fun. He's...soo positive its unbelievable. We went to the movies (more like tried) and ended up going to the mall instead. We talked about eachother and other things. I can't seem to remember any...the ones i do i don't want to mention here. We spent the whole night laughing over things we've done, said, or seen. I remember he told me that he's been shy all this time. I didn't see it. We walked around the mall a few times. He really wanted to see a movie but unfortunately didn't make it. He ended up taking me to a place i've never been before. Somewhere really really south? north? passing Ford City that's for sure. By 129th street and Cicero. We went inside a place that had alot of pool tables. (He didn't want to tell me where we were going) He spent the whole time teaching me how to play and out of dumb luck i won. We made a wager as to whoever would win would get something out of it. I couldn't think of anything...at the time. But all he wanted was to get to use my glasses (I wonder why...) Soon we were off on a long ride back home. He held my hand the whole way as i held his. Sometimes i couldn't really believe i was there...its as if there was another body..or another person that was there. I felt like i was dreaming. We got to my house, and he walked me to my door. The rest is private peeps. But you can pretty much guess. My mom approved (completely. she got nervous when she was talking to him.) I asked her what she thought of him after he left and the first thing that came into her head was "guapo". Great mom. I didn't notice that. Geez.

A Christmas Carol Concoction

I wish i was a ghost. Not a moaning emo, scary one. More like a Christmas ghost that would show particular people, what they're actually doing with their lives. I know the perfect person that needs this kind of scaring as soon as possible. If that was the case though, i already know who my ghost friends would be. Both of them are as apart as the north and south poles. They might hate me for mentioning this, but it is my blog and nobody can change it.(Spam all you want ladies). Ebenezer Scrooge will be played by our truly dear friend Beatriz. Selfish, greedy, inconsiderate. She's dead on the 21st century descendant of the old man. I have no ghost in mind who would play the person that would warn her of her ways. I could pick "L", but she's being used for a far more important part. That and she really hasn't done anything to deserve such a consequence. (if anything she could play Tiny Tim lol) Christmas past will be played by me. Who else has celebrated things with her and would make her regret things from the past?? I won't let her forget that's for sure. Christmas present is no one else but the wonderful, enthusiastic, and cutie pie Magali (kudos to her bf for cutting her hair, i like it =)). She fit the part for being so full of joy and creativity most of the time. Christmas usually involves happy times and celebration and no one could get a better laugh then after hanging out with her...even though sometimes when she gets into a horrible accident its hilarious. If she actually had the chance to show "Scrooge" what she's been through it would definitely open our "friend's"eyes. Last but not least Christmas Future will be played by a lovely and loyal (hermity too) "L"ady. I say this because she's warned Scrooge a million times, and has foretold the bad future that she's made for herself. The Scrooge in our story didn't listen to any of our advice given throughout the years. Possibly one day she will. But for now, all we can do is haunt her with the past, present and future events that have been and will be. In her memories and dreams we'll forever be until she gets things right. How did i end up writing a blog about this? Blame Charles Dickens. Blame A Christmas Carol. Blame Barbie people. And Poop. Lots and lots of poop.

Early Presents

I've been talking to the lifeguard and I got a date...i think. So excited, so full of joy, so...paranoid. I'm nervous that i haven't passed my test at all. Its flashbacks that i keep getting from last year. But the only reason it doesn't stay that way is because i'm so happy about my future hubby haha. I know i'm jixing myself, and nothing might happen but who cares...I DO! My words are so scrambled, its hard to make a point. But i guess that was the happiest moment i've had today. I went shopping a little bit with Pedro. Sort of....more like i did it by myself. Can't stand Pedro hovering over my shoulder while i shop for stuff at Victoria's Secret. So i sent him on a wild goose chase telling him lies of where i was at while i was in line getting my stuff. Everything's been about sales in downtown ever since Black Friday. So i went into a tiny shopping spree...i was too distracted with texts from my future love ;D. I also got my gift from Magali. Its really adorable, thank you!! ( i got some coupons and a tiny dress for my doll, Linette...very cute =))

On the 1st day of Christmas My True Love Gave to Me

...a number from a hot guy! =D. I got the lifeguard's number actually. Pretty damn happy. i could sing! I had one witness...and i hated the fact that he was standing there actually staring at us having a conversation. Leave it to Pedro. No privacy whatsoever. I almost chickened out because he was standing there. I know it shouldn't have mattered, but i couldn't really pull up the courage knowing someone was staring at me trying to do it. He did catch on what i was trying to do. He kept his distance, but not far enough! (Damn you!). I finally overpowered my cowering fear and asked him. He looked surprised yet happy. Pedro told me later on that we both looked extremely cheesy. (good sign, no?). Nothing might happen, but this all serves me as a crap load of practice. Today seemed like any typical day...except when we found a replica of Hector at F.Y.E..I really couldn't stop laughing at the guy. He actually looked wayyy better than Hector's current style. Either way, today was fun =).
