to the girls (and maybe a few boys) out there...

do you ever feel like movies (ahem: romantic comedies) ruin you for the harsh realities of life? sometimes i do, however, other times they just get me excited to live life with the boy and be happy! :)


interesting quote-ish of the nite:
"a relationship is like two people holding the ends of a stick. sometimes the stick is short and you are close together; othertimes you can barely see the person at the other end of the stick, but you just keep holding on. you just keep holding on..."

-ill try to watch some less sappy movies in the future...oceans 13? live free or die hard? :)

last few days...

not too much to write about: the last few days have been filled with studying and hospital stuff - on monday i start in the LAD (labor and delivery dept at SBCH) which I'm actually really excited about. clearly i don't get to catch any babies, but since it's something i'd really like to do when "i'm all grown up" it should be a good experience :)

this week's proudest moment: it took an hour and a half and two boys (about 16-18yrs old) in India, but i got my wireless internet working!! yaaaaaaaay! i am very excited about this.
other happiness comes in the form of my newest baby andrew - the cutest baby every. his smiles and cute little giggles make my day! :)

lastly, i kinda sprained or strained (i SHOULD know which since ive been studyin that for quite some time now...) the other day and it has been SO beautiful and it's been lame not being able to be up and about on it... but i guess it must be better since we went bowling today. "tits mcgee" and even "texa$" brought much luck to my game (thanks ben). not sure if it was the alcohol, but seriously the best time i've ever had bowling...

aaaaaaaahhh!

today was filled with nothing but frustration.

it was a day off from studies, so i thought i'd try to take advantage of the time to relax and get some other stuff done. i hooked up my new amaaaaaazing printer - yay! however, the wireless internet setup was not so easy - and didn't work. additionally, i tried to be a good friend to my best friends today and even that didn't go so well...

oh well. time to put frustrations aside and try to have a nice relaxing evening. watching another movie with my mom - i think this movie nite with mom thing. last nite we saw james bond (which i thought i'd never seen before, only to discover that atherton and i saw it together before he left - ridiiiiiic nite btw :) )

tomorrow's a new day! and hopefully a productive and happy one. that's the goal!
gn all :)

throw back to high school...literally

so yesterday i spent the day studying and walking around ucsb...it is beautiful and the people are so friendly!? why did i not go to school there again? sometimes i wonder...oh wait, i love being a bruin!

today was also another beautiful day (i think you're starting to see a theme here) but it was filled with an unexpected return to my high school. after lunching with a friend at cal taco, we were driving home when we noticed much new activity at my old high school. thus, we stopped and checked it out... so it turns out that within four years of me graduating, that school made all the changes it's been talking about for the last 15yrs. First, they sectioned off the bus-loop and put up a LARGE, modern looking auditorium. for those of u who have seen our otherwise, tin-looking school, this building is too nice to be a part of it. Secondly, they got rid of the freshman basketball courts and build the MOST AMAZING Olympic sized pool. honestly, i was never one for water sports (with the exception of watching the boys water polo team...yummy), but that aquatic center was SO beautiful i'd have to reconsider. Thirdly, they put in handicapped ramps in the Greek theater, and last, but certainly NOT least, they redid the track, but in seating AND the infamous lights in our stadium. Honestly, looks like an entirely different school... congrads.

for those people who have never seen my school, don't care or otherwise cringe at the thought of high school memories, ill move on...basically still unpacking and settling in. spent a few hours at starbucks studying - unfortunately no james franco (sigh) but we know where to find him right lb? ;-)


*off to go watch the james bond movie...nighty-nite!

testing 1, 2, 3...

first time blogger - but it seems that two of my favorite dans have decided to try and keep updated with us, as they venture away from ucla, in the form of a blog - and i thought it'd be fun to try and do the same...

finished college (mostly!) and moved out of my lovely apt in ww. it's hard not to miss my roommates already, altho i suppose it will get more difficult as the reality of it all sinks in. after a mexican breakfast (thanks jay) and a loooooong day of packing (kyle saved me, and suz too) i bid fairwell to my amaaaaazing friends, to ucla and ww, and made my way home.

i am currently living life in the most beautiful hometown ever! :) actually, i've only been here for a few days but the weather has already been fantastic. my goals this summer is to be with my family, relax and apply to med school - something that i am mostly excited about! Not that studying and applying aren't full time jobs, but i do feel a little guilty about not working!! oh well, i'm sure the beaches will help me get over it. speaking of which...i think it's about time i get cleaned up and start the day.

here's to the next chapter in our lives...
*go bruins*
