cupcakes

I baked cupcakes today and they were yummy red velvet ones. I need to bake some for two people on friday.

eeeeeekkkkkk

Test in the morning.

My little Daisy

is not feeling too good. Her eye was irritated and she scratched her lens. So in the meantime she is in the kitchen sleeping in her little basket while it is healing. She is up bouncing around and her eye is looking better. I hope it heals completely.

Oscar Sunday

I just want to say that my favorites of the night were

Octavia Spencer
Viola Davis
Maya Rudolph
Giuliana Rancic

And I love Jean Dujardin. I'm so glad that he won an Oscar.

Oh I curled the front of my hair with pipe cleaners so i'm excited how they will turn out in the morning. I have a exam tomorrow... I should do fine. I'm going to study in the morning.

I need to sleep, the weekend is over, how sad.

I feel

sort of Blah today... I don't know why. I have no energy. I didn't clean my room like I thought I would. We didn't go to the store, which we need to. I also need to study all day tomorrow because I have a test on Monday. The weekend always seem to just fly by.

I'm also tired of these braids, I'm ready to take them out right now, but I said I'm going to leave them in for a month, which I think will be around the second week of March. I just want them out of my head now. I want to shop so bad.

TGIF

I'm so glad this week is over.

Spanky's

Today at work we all went to Spanky's before I had my exam at two. I can't believe I've been in Lubbock for 6 years and I have never eaten there. I ordered a grilled cheese with bacon... it was good ( why have I never thought to add bacon to my grilled cheese sandwiches at home?) Kiran paid for me... yesssssss.

Ok that exam was pretty hard, I think I mixed up the equation to calculate if the currency was selling at a discount or premium...I should have studied more.

After work me and Nisha ate at Aloha BBQ on 98th and it was really good, and they give you a ton of food. After we ate we still have food left for dinner tomorrow.

I have never eaten Hawaiian food before and I now love it. It is so smokey and tropical. We well definitely eat there again.

hacked....

So my banking account was hacked....

I had to close my account and the bank is issuing me a new card... I never thought that would happen to me. They only took out $164 and I had to pay $564 on a ticket so I literally have no money. Today was not a good day for me.

new hair style

So I decided to redo some of my braids because my hair is really fine and a couple of braids have slid right off. So I'm really tired and I did a couple but to hide the ones I didn't finish tonight I created this sort of 40's up-do and then tied my favorite scarf into a bow. It looks pretty great.

I didn't have to take that exam for my multinational corporations exam. It was moved to this thursday, also No boss today... hahha we did nothing all day.

I am so excited

I made a B on my international finance exam... I'm so excited. Ok that was a very hard essay exam and there were no A's in this class or his monetary policy class, he teaches both. I was just hoping for a D... but I made a B. I have an exam tomorrow for multinational corporation and then one on monday and wednesday for my macro theory class, then I'll have a break for a while.


I'm ready for this semester to be over. I can't take all of this stress. I think I will go to work for a few hours tomorrow and then study in the library before the exam.

goodbye weekend

So this weekend I just basically slept all weekend. Then today I cleaned all day the living room and the kitchen. I also went to the store and did all of that. I also baked pumpkin biscotti some of them dipped in white chocolate, some just plain, some dipped in white chocolate and coconut. I also baked three loaves of pumpkin bread with walnuts and pecans. I baked one loaf of cinnamon swirl bread for our house. So much baking. I am so tired right now and I'm doing a load of laundry. I'm tired

i'm an old woman

I can hardly stay up late, I'm so old. Geeze

why....

Why do I always do this...... I need to stop waiting till the last minute to do things. I met up with Dr. Walter and it was really nice, I miss her.

Valentines Day

was yesterday I have no idea why I didn't post anything it wasn't like I was freaking doing anything.  Well I basically just cooked a nice pot of chili and me and Nisha just chilled and watched TV and homework and blah Tuesday night stuff.

Phi Phi

I love Rupaul's drag race....

So today was a pretty good day. Classes were delayed till noon because you know us Texas drivers can't drive in snow. I only had to go to one class at one o clock, which was my managerial economics class, which I am really glad that I went because we learned a lot.

My iPhone and my Macbook locked me out because my stupid eraider had to be changed and it screwed up everything, just when I was leaving campus did it decide to accept my new password for everything.

OMG I have to pay a crazy amount for a traffic ticket that I got back in 2007, it's like 550 bucks... think of all the shoes that I could have bought, what a waste

Adele

I love Adele and her voice and her style. I wish I had talent like her

I finished my braids finally.

Whitney Houston is dead....

This is so sad, her music will live on. She was so beautiful, definitely a style icon to me.

Sweet Sleep

I can now go to sleep. That international finance exam was so hard, I mean everyone in the class was at a loss of words. I did not even finish, really. I finished around 4 questions and I had to scramble to finish the last two before we had to turn in our exams. Who makes an exam all essay questions when you only have 50 minutes. So after I finished my last class we all went to Chimy's to relax and eat and drink margaritas. When who do I see when I walk in, it was Dr. Gilbert holding a beer talking with another elderly person. It was so awkward.

He probably thinks that I did bad on the exam because I go out and drink all the time when I should be at home studying.

On the plus side, I bought a new pair of black TOMS... yay for buying shoes when you shouldn't.

So this is what we're up against

Taking Back Sunday always has a place in my heart.

So as I was leaving class early this guy approached me and asked me how studying was going in Dr. Gilbert's International Finance class. I told him it was going ok and I was leaving class early to continue studying, and how I felt a bit overwhelmed that I didn't really know how his tests were and things like that. We then spent about twenty minutes talking about the exam and he told me the topics that were going to be on the exam because he had just left Dr. Gilbert's office. So I now feel more prepared and he told me that he will be in the library till 10:30am (our exam is at 11) I on the other hand will not be in the library. I just left the store and I stocked up on Seattle's Best Vanilla Latte's, Low Carb Monster energy drinks, garlic parmesan pretzel chips, baby carrots, sliced apples, and cinnamon apple mini rice cakes. So snacks [check], Wall Street Journal on my computer [check], both textbooks [check], class notes [check],  Pandora [check], Uggs, comfy cardigan, and sweatpants [check]. Let the studying commence!

BOP

All I am going to do tonight is read now, this exam is getting so close. Basically this will be my last night of sleep until Friday night. I have one assignment to turn in at 2pm....then up all night then exam from hell at 11 then quiz at 2. I need to think positively. I am going to look forward to sleeping in this weekend, maybe buying some clothes and things, and cleaning, maybe eating some delicious baked things. I need to focus.

so tired

I am so tired.  I didn't get home till about 6:30 today. I worked all day and I still have so much to read and memorize and I need to gather my thoughts. I feel like I have so much on my plate. I need to finish my application for TFA, if I am accepted into their program I will be off teaching for two years. I have a lot to decide.

I made an 80 on my first quiz

for my managerial economics class, and I turned in the first assignment. I didn't go to work after the class because me and my new friend Genevive walked to Chili's for lunch. So now all I have to do is study for my exam this friday and finish my assignment for multinational corporations. I just need to survive this week. 

My international finance professor pretty much outlined all of the material that I need to know for the exam and it is a ton.

I am so excited

So I weighed myself and I have lost 10lbs just by cutting out soda and juice from my life.  I don't think I have ever lost 10 whole pounds. I feel really good. I now have a workout partner and I can't wait to lose more weight.

it's the super bowl

I don't really care, I have been doing homework all day, and I am about to continue to read. I styled my braids so I will have an idea at what I'm going to do in the morning. I have a study date at 9am so I need to have everything ready tonight.

I ate leftovers from dinner yesterday and I ate apples and peanut butter  yum. I just checked the weather and it's going to be cold tomorrow, I'm still deciding if I want to where boots tomorrow.

I need to read about the eurozone.

Channing

is not a funny man. I did not really like him on SNL.

I made dinner and it was amazingly good, I finally finished watching season 1 of Game of Thrones. I'm still braiding my hair, but I'm almost done. I talked to my mom and dad for like 3 hours on the phone. This has been a typical Saturday. I'm starting to get depressed because the weekend is almost over and I have so much to do.

Game of Thrones

I am finally watching Game of Thrones, after a year or two. I'm only on episode three but so far I am watching it.



I finished most of my assignments tonight but a couple of questions have me stomped. I'm going to try tomorrow but I need to finish braiding my hair tonight and tomorrow. Then I need to prepare for the end of my life..hahahha I'm going to be dead next week.

i'm musicless

I still haven't uploaded any of my music or pictures on to my new laptop. I don't know when I'll have the time. I still haven't finished my braids and I don't know when i'll have the time. I need more hours in a day.
I have an assignment due tomorrow at 10am over the expenditure and income methods of calculating GDP, as well as a quiz tomorrow. I have an assignment due in managerial economics that is due Monday. I have an assignment due for my multinational finance class due Thursday and lastly my first exam (that is a giant essay) on Friday of next week. I am swamped. What Super Bowl? This is the price I pay for studying economics.

This is crazy I participated in a research study on learning Japanese and I made 20 dollars. Yes free money and it only took about 35 minutes of my time. I immediately went to the store and bought jello, and queso for enchiladas that I will be making at some point tomorrow afternoon.

Me and Nisha had a long conversation with our neighbor and how we all share a common bond of despising our landlord. I love our neighbor.

well I should probably study

people watcher

I love sitting here and watching people walk by me. I'm sitting outside of a lecture hall waiting for my class to start. I love seeing all the different fashion choices that people make. I on the other hand look crazy. I'm wearing a pair of yoga pants and a red Tech shirt, a black cardigan and my plaid toms with holes in them. I was running late and had no time. I also haven't done laundry in about a month or two. I read a little for my class but I got bored with that.

Now it's my lunch time and I have water and nuts, I also didn't eat breakfast.

I'm starving but on the plus side I have lost about 8 pounds because I haven't been drinking or buying soda or juice... mainly i've been drinking water. Yay me
