Once upon a weekend..







I was not nearly as stressed out as I am these days. I spent a saturday at a park playing with Kito making friends with little kids. Kito learned how to play some tennis against concrete haha those poor rackets and then I drank a 40oz without passing out. It was nice.

what a tease of a teas test

Just read the instructions and it saysssss.. if you passed the test already you don't need to take it just submit your scores there is NO expiration date!!! Yayyy! You'd think I'd know by now that you always gotta read the instructions. So its official I am in! Now I just gotta go threw with it and pass all my clinicals! I sure hope their NCLEX passing rate is high.

FINALLY

Got myslef into the nursing program at CSM, after 3 years of applying! I sorta knew it would happen this way. I rushed home from borders to open the letter, after being on campus all morning... meeting with professors and buying my cap and gown for graduation. Before starting my health science degree at CSUEB in 2008 I almost got in to the nursing program. I was #20 on the list and didn't make it. I didn't bother applying for 2009 since I was in the middle of getting my BS. I did however take the TEAS test for nursing and passed back in 2008. So here I go again, I have 1 week to take that TEAS test and pass in order to secure my spot in the program. Amber gave me a study guid for the exam last year when she got in good looking out, I'll be reviewing that this weekend. Looks like all the pieces are starting to fall together, in the right places. As for now I have these classes to finish up. This quarter has proven to be one of the most time consuming, so I guess I'm glad I don't have a job right now. Honestly I'm hating this quarter a bunch of group projects with people I'v never met cause my classes are online.

I don't have much trust in the April sun

"Tell Me" is one of my most favorite "Taken by Trees" songs.. love her voice, love the lyrics, love it all.



Tell me when the snow has gone it's way
And tell me when it's time for me to play
Cause I don't want to be standing alone
without a hand to hold
and that's for everyone
no one should stand without a hand to hold

Oh I only see with those eyes
that was given to me
a long long time ago,
ago, ago, ago

You said spring is on its way
And you said the light will do us good
Spring is a way to shake it for me
Why not take me all the way to July

You lie you lie you lie you lie
Cause I dont have much trust in the April sun
sun sun sun sun sun sun

Oh I only see with those eyes that was given to me
Oh I only see with those eyes that was given to me
a long long time ago, ago, ago, ago

blogger-versary

Happy 1 year of blogging to me. Looking back at this thing its crazy to think how little my life has changed. I know I've never been fond of change but I'm starting to realize this could be damaging.

Connecting the Dots



Ok so this is way out there, but I have come to a hypothesis. I've linked together a book I recently read "A child called it" and a cult classic series I've been watching "Dark Shadows". The book is a true story about a boy from Daly City who was brutally abused by his drunken mother. In the book he mentions that she would sit on the couch and watch television and think of new ways to cause him pain. I'm wondering first of all why she would single out only one son to abuse when she had three to choose from and at that even kept having babies. So this is when i start to link the two. The abuse took place throughout the mid 60's and early 70's precisely the same time that Dark Shadows began to air on ABC. So here is my hypothesis, the crazy abusive mother targeted her son David because she was probably watching Dark Shadows and like everyone else disliked the little boy who was also named David he plays the role of a bratty kid who tried to kill his father during the first season. The kid in the TV series really is a pain in the butt. Not that I'm trying to justify the mothers abuse towards her son, but really crazy people should not drink and should not be allowed to have children or a television. the end.

Playing Surgeon





So Alex once asked me to remove his neck piercing thingys but I never did so we went to Kaiser where the guy removed it in like 15 seconds. Probably cus it was less than a week old piercing. Well now Ben asked if I could remove his which have been in for the past 7 months and the screw was imbedded in his ski with layers of thick scared skin over it. All I had to use was a kitchen knife, and a pair of tweezers. We preped with some drinks, Ben had a Blueberry martini, and I had a large stella. We cleaned the instruments as best we could but we didnt have any alcohol to steralize em. The knife was way dull, I had to stab at it inoder to get through the skin,, after 40 min, of tugging, turning, snipping and twisting the little sucker finally came out. 3 blood soaked bounty napkins later mind you. Alex I hope your happy I never went through removing your piercing!

Monterey

Weekend in monterey was fun. Saw some cool bands the people were chill. Shared some jack wth y. Ed and scarfed down a slice of cheese pizza. Burped like a man and laughed when rich said, "I lke it when u burp." Lost my buzz on behalf of an unexpected event. Learned that Monterey guys are a lot more ballsy than sf dudes. Heard commissure play a clean set, and finished off the trip wth a belly full of bubba gumps.

Weekend Highlight




Went out with Mr. Flowers for a last minute, last hoppla, last dinner, last swing around the city. You will be missed g r e a t l y ! !

Look what I can make!

Made a pot of beans and spanish rice. My week is so busy I need to have already made stuff at home so that I can eat quickly and go.

Princess' gone mad!






Cute little Celeste turned 4! She was so cute in her little princess dress! The kids had fun destroying the Cinderella pinata. I was surpised this little girl ran over after the candys were all picked up and started stomping on Cinderella then the other little princess girls jumped in, it was hillarious!

Rice = Blackberry life


So right before v-day lunch in SF I dropped my beloved phone in some merky SF puddle water. I let it dry for a couple hours it turned on but the keys were all messed up and the trackball was not functioning. I even used a blow dryer and a fan. I was super bummed too cus I guess my numbers are saved to my phone not my sim card. I went online to see if there were any other remedies and read about leaving your phone in a rice bowel overnight. Sure enough the next day it worked 100%!!! I guess the rice absorbes any kind of liquid in the phone.

Tulips > Roses

Roses are so cliche tulips now that's where the heart is... had an alright v-day but not the best weekend. Note to everyone Carolina does not enjoy balloons, flowers, or chocolates for v-day or birthdays. A nice card and some food is good enough. I also don't wear jewelry.. very speical I am,ehh.

no income coming in

Redundant.. yes.

Going on my third month of being jobless. The only income I have right now is the books I've been selling on amazon and it hasn't been much. Month one was spent finishing up the fall quarter, and getting random shit done that needed to be done. Month two I focused on fining an internship and looking for a part time job which I can work the two around. I swore I wouldn't buy anyone any x-mas gifts but shit that didn't end up happening. I have school to pay for now and I hate taping into my savings which I have for when I get into nursing school. I have way too many expenses to many bills. The first to go will definatly be my god awful health insurance bull shit. I Will have to go back to living life on the edge as I liked to call it. I found two places to intern at, just sux I don't get paid. I'm gonna do them both mainly becuase of the experience I will be gaining. Luckily one of them is close to home the other is in san mateo. This quarter I will have to drive to campus 2 times a week which means I should buy a parking permit. Why does everything in life = money?
