happy moments and halloweenie

You know those moments when you're cuddled up on your couch watching one of your favorite movies, drinking some yummy hot tea, and texting your best friends and you just think to yourself, "hmm, life is good."? Yeah, I live for those moments.

Those moments are one of the few things that makes me genuinely happy. And who doesn't like being happy?


ps: be safe out there tonight, kiddo's. its the only night where it's acceptable to beg for candy from strangers, so y'all better get your year's worth. but please don't get abducted while doing so because then there will be a lot of sad people and we can't have sad people when it's almost the season where overeating isn't frowned upon.

so be safe, look both ways before crossing the street, and skip the house that always gives out mystery candy.

have a great night!

This picture made me happy

Its just so cute!

Its Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday

IT'S FRIDAY!

And we all know what that means... T minus 8 hours till I can go home and sleep! Oh happy day. It's really sad that that's what I look forward to on Fridays, but it is what it is. Because I'm that cool.

In other news, I went to bed at like 10:40 something last night. WITH my homework done. If that's not a miracle I don't know what it.

I love those two hours my friends and I hang out after school while waiting for mock trial. It's seriously where all the fun happens. I love it because were all like different, but when you put about 8 starving, bored, and usually hyper by then high school kids together things get pretty dang entertaining.

Alright, I'm almost to school via the giant twinkie. It is currently 50 something degrees and my hair is wet, resulting in an extremely cold Sam. I suppose I shall go cram for my AP World test. Wish me luck! (no seriously like pray)

all you need is love

Just a 'lil bit of cuteness to complete your night. that is all. :)

team up against drugs!

It's red ribbon week, y'all. Which obviously means... more dress up days! YAY! T'was twin day today.

Honah and I were twins, because we're that awesome. Whoever took this picture cut out our vans, which completed our twin-ness! Shame on them. 

But the picture of the day award goes to......TIA!

She obviously hates Jenna. But it just made me laugh when I saw it. Hehe :)


I feel like there was something else of importance that I needed to tell the blogger world but I can't think of it at the moment. POOP. This keeps happening to me! Chels knows what I'm taking about. Ugh, no me gusta my lack of memory. Oh, and I'm hungry. As always. And, as you know, I'm a MAJOR procrastinator so I have two chapters of ap world to complete by tomorrow at 8 am and I'm blogging. I really need to get better at this whole do-everything-the-night-before deal. It's just not working out.

so much want

If anyone wants to build this for me in my back yard feel free to let me know. I'll pay you in food. 

I've come to the conclusion

that I'm obsessed with tumblr and I don't even have an account. There's just so many pretty pictures of things on there! Don't even get me started with some of the fashion blogs out there on the tumblr world.... If you saw them you'd understand why I'm obsessed. I'm hesitant to make an account though because I don't wanna neglect this wonderful masterpiece of mine I refer to as my blog and because I think I would do absolutely nothing other than reblog everything I saw. It's THAT addicting. So for now I will continue to leave the tabs of the blogs open as I can not and will not memorize their url's.

Off to work on school things and such. Adios amigos.

Ouch

Here's a tip for everyone: don't go from running one mile at most for a long time straight to six miles. It will hurt.

So because my dad and I are running a half marathon relay in a few weeks, he's been constantly been getting on me for not training. Henceforth I ran 6 miles, in one hour, without stopping last night. Good part of that: my dad has to back off for not training. Bad part of that: I now hurt. Bad. Oh, and keep in mind I haven't ran more than a mile since April.

But I talked my family into going out for frozen yogurt after :) (Chelsea, btw world, loves froyo!)

So yeah, I hurt and now I'm pretty dang hungry. I hope you all have a great day!

I couldn't think of a clever title

My day very dumbed down:
7am-2:45-School
3-5pm: Try to do chemistry while impatiently waiting for mock trial
5-7pm: Mock Trial!!! t'was such a fun day today. All y'all on defense, I love you.
7-9:45?pm: Massive Chemistry study session at my friend's house.
10-10:30pm: Finish up chem at home
10:30-11:15 or so pm: Clean my room/bathrooms so my friend can come over tomorrow
11:20-now: Eating mini wheaties (were out of frosted flakes, sad face) on my bed while blogging and listening to music.

I'm such an exciting person, my gosh. Why am I so cool? I feel like I've been doing chemistry stuff aaaallllllllll dayyyyyy.................ugh I hate that class. Honestly, when am I going to need to be able to measure the molar mass of anything as an attorney or just a person/wife/parent?! It makes no sense to my why I must take that class, but whatevs. Table 4 is where it's at. If you don't know what that means there's a reason for that.

Tomorrow, except for my chemistry test, will be a swell day and I cannot wait.

Always remember: L♥VE is louder than the pressure to be perfect


It appears I've run out of cereal so night, y'all. Even though most of you all are already asleep...

wait, what?

Have you ever had those moments when you're sitting in class and all of a sudden you're kinda just like, what's happening? And you begin to question your existence and how you're even alive, if alive at all? I had one of those today in chemistry and you all know how much I love that class....(If you're not good at picking up sarcasm via the internet then that was a sarcastic remark, fyi). So yeah, basically life sucks right now.

I honestly think I curse myself. Every time life gets normal, and I feel happy for a while, and I feel like things are finally going my way for once, everything flops. I then precede (is that spelled right?) to ask God, "WHY?!" But then I also remember that if God has brought you to it, he'll give you the resources to get you through it. If it weren't for church, my friends, and those little random quotes of inspiration I'd probably be in a psych ward of some sort.

This week=no bueno. Today=mucho no bueno. Tomorrow=?

I'm pretty sure I don't stand alone when I say I thoroughly miss the days where we had no responsibility, our life didn't revolve around college and the future, and you didn't feel like a failure with a B. The stress of school and pressures from my family are definitely getting to me. But when I got on my blog today, I saw I had a new comment. Comments, no matter who they are from or what they say, comments make my life. I absolutely LOVE getting comments. ahh! Okay so anyways, I got super giddy when I saw the new comment and it was from someone I don't know personally, but a fellow blogger. This may sound weird but I love when random people read my blog. It makes me feel popular :) (don't judge my desperateness) So yeah, she kinda basically made my day. PLUS! Modern Family and The Middle are also on tonight! So excited. My day is slowly getting better so no one ruin it. please

Alright, I am now off to try to do homework and wishing I had both the snow and this puppy:

Blah blah blah blah

blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

life is all over the place right now and I'm not too sure of anything. so "blah" is a pretty good explanation of how I've been feeling.

So, blah.

Yay for the blogger app on iPhones

I am currently on a bus headed to the Diocesan Youth Day in Visalia! If you aren't catholic and have no idea what that means I shall explain. (but if you are Catholic and i get something wrong please feel free to correct me in the comments) A Diocese is basically the head of a region. Under a Diocese are several churches so were under the Diocese of Fresno. Diocesan Youth Day is when all (almost all at least) the churches under all the Dioceses of the central valley come together to worship and such.

I'm pretty darn excited.

I'm currently trying to grow in my faith. I guess that's a good way to put it. With the things that have been happening lately I've just found salvation and comfort in spending time with Jesus and Our Heavenly Father and praying deeply. It's nothing I've really done before so I'm taking it day by day, and so far it's going pretty well.

Oh, just an FYI, because were in a charter bus, all the cars beside us look so wittle! Tis quite funny. Welp, I'll be sure to update y'all on the events of the day later!

Oh mother

So I misplaced my phone and I couldn't find it for the life of me. I knew it was somewhere in the living room (hopefully) but it just vanished. An hour later, my mom hands me my phone and guess what? It's disabled for an hour. Awesome opossum! Apparently as she was trying to either figure out my password, or purposely trying to disable it (I think both), one of my friends texted me something along the lines of how we haven't talked in a while. My mom then starts to ask me a ton of questions regarding this! She's so noisy my goodness.

This all happened while we were all (my family) watching Thor. Which, by the way, was not as good as people made it out to be. Just letting y'all know.

Also, to my new followers (I'm up to like 7 guys, this is a big deal), THANK YOU. You have all made me feel extremely popular. Many of my friends have started blogging here on blogspot, good luck to you guys! I hope you all get addicted like me. Hehe. :) Now that I think of it, blogspot/blogger should give me commission for all the people I get to make an account. Heck yes.

Alright, I hope y'all had a fabulous day today and I wish you all the best for tomorrow! Peace out homies. (I would just like to tell you guys my phone changes 'homies' to 'honked'. I found it humorous, then again I'm easily amused. Okay bye.)

Quote of the day!

"I want to try to put a raisin in grape juice to see if it'll turn back into a grape" -chandni grewal

homework < everything else

I hate homework so much. And I'm sure I speak for all of the students of the world when I say that. Especially in honors/AP classes. After awhile it just gets plain boring and tedious. I have absolutely no motivation to do mine.

I had a quote of the day, but I forgot it. sorry to disappoint.

Because I have nothing else to write please enjoy this video of an adorably funny little boy:

Made my week

Not sure if that was made in reference to the fact i'm Mexican, or because she's just good at analogies? Either way I liked it. Why? Because who gets referenced as a burrito?! No one! Bazinga. Case Closed. Bring in the dancing lobsters.

QUOTE OF THE DAY: "an awkward and pregnant silence" -papa sims. 

oh how i love mock trial 

alright i think im done

adios amigos!

procrastination at it's finest.

I'm a pro procrastinator. Plain and simple. I had a full 3-day weekend to do my 3-4 pages legal decision for English and I just started an hour ago. Even worse? I just wasted the last 30 min on facebook and now I'm writing a post about it. Oh boy oh boy how I miss 8th grade English. Where there was no homework, tests were a cake, and there was an abundance of extra credit.

I have one page done, but then again my teacher basically gave us the page and I just re-typed it. hehe.

On the bright side, I got a new pair of heels for five dolla! Holla! My self-proclaimed title "Queen of Sales" continues to prove itself correct.

Alright, I'm aiming to have this paper done by 11, (I'm hopeful, I know) and to be in bed by twelve. Can I do it? Oh how I hope so. Someone pray for me. Please.

Homecoming Week Day 5

Are You Ready For....... BEAR NATION?!

(When everyone shows off their school spirit!)

I love people who care enough about their school to show school spirit, even if its just wearing a tshirt with the school name or something of the such. I, however, love my school hence I wore old cheer sweats, spirit shirt, as well as huge blue and red bracelets! 

Oh, and I love football games! They are so fun. Especially after halftime when all the seniors leave and the front row is open. We dominated that student section better than any seniors ever will! Oh how I love my friends and our crazy school spirit. T'was a great night last night was. 

Homecoming Week Day 4

Are

     You

            Ready

                      For.......

                                   FAME?!

(Where everyone dresses as their favorite celeb/celeb look alike)

A few years ago, I had short hair with bangs and people were always telling me how much I looked like Dora the Explorer. Because I have short hair again and Dora is just plain amazing, I thought I'd dress like her. T'was much fun. There were two other girls who were dressed like Dora but one of them was white, not Mexican, (I don't know what she was thinking either), and the other was rather tall, obviously not like Dora. So I deemed myself the official Dora. Like a boss. 

Keep in mind it was only high 60's that day and I envied every single person wearing pants. Just throwin' that out there. Besides that I thoroughly enjoyed being Dora!

Homecoming Week Day 3

Are 

You

Ready

For.......

VACATION?!

While everyone else dressed as cute little tourist and such, I thought they all needed direction so I was a Mexican tour guide. Oh yes. Complete with my mustache and all! Groupo De Sam baby!

And it rained, so awesome. The only bad thing about the rain is whenever it does is all I wanna do is get sweats on, drink hot coco, put on The Notebook, and cuddle with someone. Two main problemos: 1. No one to cuddle with :( 2. dang school takes up all my free time! I need a cuddle buddy. Any takers? ;) jk, that's desperate. Anyways, but now I must go convince myself that if I do my homework now I will be able to enjoy Modern Family and The Middle more. T-minus 1 hour and 10 minutes! I CAN DO IT. .....hopefully

Homecoming Week Day 2

Are you ready to.........REWIND!?

(We dressed up in a representation of a decade)

I wore a tye die shirt! Reppin' them 70's? Or 60's? You get the idea. And don't judge my horrible tye dye skills, t'was the summer before 5th grade in Virginia and I was bored. Deal. I love seeing how creative people get. People ranged from Paleolithic times (animal hide/print things of the sort), to about 80's+. 

I love my friends.

I'm really pumped for tomorrow and Thursday. Pictures will be up tomorrow :)

Homecoming Week Day 1

The overall homecoming theme is "Are you ready for/to......" and today's was THE GAME!
                                                  (So basically wear any type of sports attire)


Me being the most sport-y person on the planet, I wore my Minnesota Twins baseball tank I got while in Minnesota. (funny how that works)

YAY FOR HOMECOMING WEEK!

~tomorrow is Are You Ready To Rewind! (we shall be dressing as a decade? I dunno, but yay for relaxed dresscode!)

Please don't grow up

Last night my family and I headed to my aunt's house for a movie night. As we pulled up along the street, we saw two girls. Both of which were wearing skinny jeans, tank tops, and with straightened hair. All of us in the car said, "who are those girls?!" As we got closer, we saw it was my cousin Joleen and one of her friends.

Joleen is a pre-teen who just started middle school this year. Puberty has been very nice to her and she's growing into a beautiful gal. But my gosh, she's growing fast! She towers over me by about 3 inches and still going!

It's so crazy to me seeing her getting all dolled up for school and just about everything else. Then I have one of those proud cousin (I know it's supposed to be proud mama but deal) moments and I think "ahh, those were the days" I wish I could protect her from all the troubles of middle school and high school but I know she needs to experience it for herself. I love her so and I feel very old now ha

Lesson #1

Don't forget to write down the notecard terms for AP World because everyone else has a life on Saturday's and will not be home to send them to you. I'm currently learning that the hard way.

If anyone has them PLEASE SEND THEM TO ME! Just think of me virtually on my knees begging you. Please and thank you.

a wee bit behind

I'm really behind on updating the world wide web on what's going on in my life. So, here's the latest and greatest:

First off, San Francisco last weekend was fantastic. It was so nice just to be in that city, walking around, taking in the beautiful San Franciscian air. The weather was a perfect mid-60's with a little rain to make it interesting. Ugh, how I miss it so. It's been established that after college I will be living in the city in my own studio, living off of goldfish and top ramen because all of my money will be going towards the very expensive rent. Donations are welcome

Homecoming has kicked into high gear! The skit practices have started, the sign is underway, and we have less than a week to get it done and perfected. Yay for stress!

Probably close to a month ago, my Spanish teacher started telling us about the opportunity to go to SPAIN over summer. I was so excited and I wanted to go so bad word bad! I talked to my parents about it everyday  and after the parent meeting last Monday I literally got on my knees and begged them to let me go. They said it was either going to be all four of us, or my sister and I. Kids, if you really want something, DON'T EVER GIVE UP. Last night they told me we were all going and I COULDN'T CONTAIN MYSELF!!!! Ohmygosh, it still feels surreal. We are all officially regestiered to go to Spain in July! Ahhh, let the countdown begin!

Last, but most certainly not least, Chelsea Cook is downright the most amazing person on the face of this earth. She is both a realist, and an optimist and never fails to make my day. She is probably the only person who encourages you to talk solely about yourself and your problems and listens with nonjudgmental ears. Chels, thank you for always being there for me through everything and truly caring! I LOVE YOU!

Sorry for the delay, but better late then never, right?
