To say that my summer was great would be an understatement. It goes beyond the word “great.”

As I am in my room preparing to pack, I reflect back to all the things that have happened. Yes, it was a slow break at first since I was one of very few people who were done with their first year of college in L.A. But, things started to pick up, and I soon saw myself as the main driver for everyone. Did it bug me? Not really, but we all need a break sometimes.

All the places I’ve gone, all the cities I’ve been to made me realize that I’m a lucky guy to live in one of the best places in the world.

This break was either so cool while we were jamming in the car and having many laughs, or difficult if I decided to regret in liking someone, or unexpected if I was about to move away from my friends, or unforgettable like realizing that the Harry Potter story has come to an end. Hmmm….this kinda reminds me of that one wild week for the Stock Market: just kept going up and then back down, and then up again.

Now, I’ve been using one word quite often: adventure. And of course, life is an adventure, like you read in books or watch on tv or in movies. And I want to continue using this word since college life is an adventure on its own. 

So, I’m ready to go back to CSB/SJU and reunite with everyone once again. Am I ready to start working on assignments: maybe.

Southern California: I thank you for making this a memorable spring/summer break. It will be difficult not enjoying another summer for a while out here since I made up my mind by staying in Minnesota next summer. Oh well. I wanna take a road trip to Canada!

I was deciding this morning on my way to market whether I should do this, so I will.

I am getting sick and tired of people making fun of the music I like, notably Glee, Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, and Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus. 

I’m tired of all the things everyone tries to make fun of these artists. 

So, if you don’t have anything nice to say about them, keep your fucking mouth closed and your thoughts to yourself.

I’m like Taylor Swift: the music will always be there for be. These artists have been there with me through the ups and downs these last few years in my life. 

So, it’s been over a month since I saw my friends at CSB/SJU and being at home in L.A. Sure it feels great being with familiar ppl I missed dearly: family and friends. I knew I wanted this summer to be an unforgettable one, and it’s become one, but not in a way I really fond of as much.

First thing: I’m really starting to miss all my friends from CSB/SJU. We’ve been through all the great times together: from eating every day with each other to having classes together, to having our group things which can be from parties to playing sports. And, they’ve been there through some of my rough times: from homesickness to dealing with crushes.

Second, and more importantly, I’m really having the hard time to move on, again, from those crushes. Now that I’m not doing anything or working, and when I don’t have anything planned here in L.A., I take the time to reflect what’s happened this past year. Yeah it was awesome, but it was in March when things took a turn, not for the worst, at least I hope it won’t go there. The feelings keep coming back for these 2 ppl because I see them as boyfriend material, even though feelings tend to be for one guy over the other now.

The main point is that, yes I know I need to move on. Yes, I need to have the guts to go out there and find someone. Yes, I know that it’ll never work out with the other crushes. But, put yourself in a position where you have to go up against something you don’t know much about, something that you expect failure to happen again, something that you may have to face similar demons all over again.

So, it’s time for a new mindset while I’m home for these 2 months exactly: 
Fun, fun, and more fun.
It’s all about me.
You wanna try me? Prove you’re worth it or move on. 

It’s already March and there’s only two months left until the first year of college is done…what?!

Anyway, it’s been a while since I wrote on here, so why not take the time to say a few things (I got the time. :D)

Wow…

Simply wow….

So many things have happened.

I’m back in Minnesota, which I dearly missed during my last week of Winter Break. I’m a cashier at the Reef, and it’s a great job. Meeting new people, showing my smile (lol), and getting some downtime from all my troubles. Working may seem better, but not so much. I gotta wake up at 7am every other weekday, but it’s worth getting up and waiting for it to be 9:30 to start being a cashier.

College life is just as sweet as it was last semester…or so I thought.

This semester hasn’t really started off well. Besides waking up early, routines have changed. I don’t get to eat with THAT many ppl anymore; sometimes a few, but I miss having meals with a large group. Classes are all good, especially Statistics, when it comes to the professor. If he has a story to tell, yay…lol. But omg: Economics. I like the subject, but the professor practically goes on and on with PowerPoint while I’m there taking notes. I knew this would come sooner or later.

Then something happened. I thought for a while and realized that there were some “bad” things I did while being a roommate with Forrest. So, I’ve decided to make some changes.

1)Don’t eat in the room while he’s around.

2) Try and control myself…eh

And that’s about it.

Moving on, time management: still working on it, and besides: no one really expects a first-year to accomplish that. 

Anything else to talk about? Hmmm

Well, yeah…I missed the First-Year Formal. And for those of you who are annoyed of me continuing of me saying this: Sorry, but one thing you gotta know about me: formal dances aren’t my thing. That’s why I didn’t go to prom, even after I turned down a free ticket.

Feb. 14 is coming soon (I will not dare say that holiday’s name). Beware…

There’s someone I like, and idk if I should focus on dating, esp. what I’m going through this semester.

(Damn, it does feel good just letting things out.)

Peace :)

Yay! My first post. What do I have in mind?

I got a few things.

We have a new Congress session (House: Republican; Senate: Democrat), and as I was sharing with a few people a while ago, one word comes to mind: gridlock. It may be a while before we’ll see any bills reaching Obama (except cutting the Congressional budget because it sounds like everyone likes that).

Almost everyone from high school is back to school except for a few of us. These last few days will be long and rough. :(

I’m really starting to miss my CSB/SJU family. Now I really want college to start soon.

But, good news is that I got to see Tron in 3D (my first 3D movie), and I thought it was awesome. But now I want one of those bikes they use. And I’m keeping the 3D glasses. lol 

And I guess that’s it, for now. I know there will be more stuff to talk about because, well, I like to share my stories. :P
