Congratulations to the San Francisco Giants! I admit, I am a bandwagon fan. I jumped on the bandwagon 8 games ago, and since then I realized how exciting baseball was. As I watched each of those past 8 games, I learned a lot about baseball. Not only that, but the parade in San Francisco was an exciting experience as well. I loved the atmosphere and I truly felt the unity in the crowd. I didn't buy a souvenir but just as long as Brian and Mayumi did then I'm good. Congratulations again to the San Francisco Giants! =) I can't wait for next baseball season; I'll be more involved in baseball. Until then, time to focus my attention on the Golden State Warriors!

An update on my life:

It's already half way into the semester at San Jose State, and I still haven't declared my major (but I will soon!). I just want to take my time thinking about it because I really don't want to waste any time and money here at SJSU. I feel like my classes this semester (Abnormal Psych, Social Psych, and Sex & Gender) are pretty laid back. I'm hardly stressed out. I've also gotten the hang of how things work around here so it's not as bad as I initially thought. In my last blog I sounded unhappy being here because when I was at Mission College, I placed SJSU up high on a pedastal.... and when I finally came here I thought: "this sucks!" But I take it back. I just needed to learn and experience the place longer.

Another new thing is I'm a Preschool Instructor. I haven't started because the LifeScan process is taking awhile. I'm waiting for an appointment with Human Resources so they can give me an orientation. I was so excited though when I got the call! I can't wait until the job begins =)

Anyway, the holidays are just around the corner and I can't wait! I am looking forward to spending more time with my family and friends and creating more memories with them. They are an awesome group to be around.. they're real chill and laid back.... no drama whatsoever... I'm just blessed to have them in my life =)

Well I'll end it here for now... until next time!

First week at SJSU

My first week at SJSU was okay. I still haven't adjusted to the large campus. For my first week, I tried adding classes that required me to walk all over the place. I am also taking the VTA light rail to school to save gas and money. If I could get my Bachelor's Degree at Mission College, I would do it...

Nervous

San Jose State University starts this Thursday for me. I can't believe that one year ago, going to SJSU was just a plan; a plan I wanted so badly. Now I'm actually going there! =*) Exactly one year ago, I felt like I accomplished nothing in life or that it was taking me forever to get things done. Since then I obtained my Associate's Degree in Social and Behavioral Science AND got accepted into San Jose State University. What an exciting and challenging 2009-2010 school year for me.

Now that SJSU is starting, I have the opportunity to finally get my Bachelor of Science Degree and make my parents proud =) I'm giving myself two years to get it and hopefully when I'm done with school I can finally begin the next part of my life. I think the main reason why I'm nervous is because SJSU is a new environment for me. It's a bigger school with new people. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and making new friends or re-meeting old friends. I'm hoping it'll be a new and fun experience for me.

YEssss....

I passed the WST at SJSU =)

My latest obsession

School's over!

I can't believe the spring semester is over... I'll admit, it was challenging. But I couldn't have done it without my family and friends' support. I'm really thankful that the guys started a study session at Safeway every night and for being understanding when I couldn't hang out or by telling me to study when I wanted to have fun, lol. Special thanks to Mark for letting me borrow his scientific calculator for Statistics, thanks to John for helping me with Public Speaking, thanks to Brian for giving me a hard time which pushed me harder, thanks to Truth for helping me out with the SJSU stuff, thanks to Jerome Ronald Wilson for being study buddies even though we end up getting distracted, thanks to Sean for helping me out with my green car earlier in the semester. Thank you!! Thank you!! Here are my final grades:

Statistics - C
Public Speaking - B
Human Biology - A
English 1B - B
Stretch and Fitness - A

Now its time for me to prepare for the WST test on June 12th. I have an Orientation on August 10th. All out planning for Beach Day that's coming up on June 25th. Annnd time to job hunt. =)

Note to self: Today is OFFICIALLY DAY #1 for my FITNESS and DIET. Time to get skinny!
