Sometimes I wish my life was a musical

I’m in Coffee Bean, waiting for my order and it is extremely crowded… The TV has a scrolling bar of E! News and there was just a story on Glee… This has inspired me to break into song…

Country Living

Gabby and I are nerds. That's how I would explain us in one word. We get super silly when we are together, laugh at the most random things and you know what, I absolutely love it. God has truly blessed me by putting her in my life. She's a strong woman in her faith, school and has the biggest heart for her friends. I love you Gabba Gabba.

I don’t know what it is this year… but I am so excited about Christmas. Last year, I barely got my Christmas shopping done in time but this year… I can feel the holiday spirit sneaking up inside me already. Confession: I actually watched Mariah Carey’s “All I want for Christmas is You” video on youtube tonight. I know, I know… what the heck??

We don’t have room for a Christmas tree. Or even a fireplace to hang stockings. But I can’t wait to see this city decorated in lights and red bows. I can’t wait to go to the tree lighting and our neighborhood celebrations. I can’t wait to eat way too many candy canes. I can’t wait for Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer to come on tv. I can’t wait to go home and spend a good, long time with family.

WHAT THE….?? These are the ugliest boots I’ve come across.

Where The Wild Things Are

Watching Where the Wild Things Are this weekend reminded me of my childhood when my daddy would read this book to me in my room before I went to bed. We would go on many adventures along with the book. One of many great memories with my daddy!

Questions:

1. Are you addicted too?

2. Do your tubes disappear as often as mine do? Only to resurface after I’ve caved in and bought a brand new one?

Isn’t this dress the cat’s meow?

From the Marchesa Spring 2009 collection. amazing amazing.

that's what I'm doing starting today. I told all my friends so that they can be a support system, because God knows I'll need it, because of all the tempting yummy's in the caf.

I need

to take more pictures so I can share with you how much fun I am having!

PS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU THAT YOU'RE IN NEW YORK WITH OUT ME ;)

Disneyland

One thing I love about going to disneyland with new friends...learning new tricks! I had a lot of fun with Kristin, Gabby and Travis yesterday at dland.

I can spend so much time there and never get sick of it. ever!

My favorite time to go is during this season and christmas time of course. I love all the colors Autumn brings, its so calming to me.

Also another perk is that there's tourist...oh man how I love to watch (and make fun of)!!!

Revamped Room

If you didn't know this already, I moved. I'm now in a town house in the University Place apartments on campus. It consists of two bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a kitchen and living area, plus it is two stories!

Here's my half of the room:

Dear Blog,

Oh how I have missed you! Let's see where to start...

I've had a lot going on this past week starting last Saturday: my computer completely crashed. yup donzo with my PC and now I am a MAC owner and absolutely love it! I have yet to fully understand all its lil tricks, but am learning every day with the help of my lovely friends.

Next up Sunday: A bunch of us went to the Newport Beach to just relax from the week of school. I spent a lot of the time in the water, which you can imagine made me super sleepy Sunday night!

Monday-Thursday: I had classes including on Friday, but my parents came to have lunch with me and that was just peachy. I do miss them and they only live 15 minutes away! Silly me.

That night I finally got to hang out with Nick for longer than 20 min or other than doing homework together, which of course is always a cherished.

Now: I am relaxing at my parents home before me and Becky go to Knotts Scary Farm tonight with her co-workers.
