school, summer, and boys.

This semester has gone by SO fast. I only have a week and a half left of classes and then two exams the week after. I am at the point where I just want to be done with school. Don't get me wrong, I love my program and my new friends I've made, but it's just time to go home. I had a bit of a thing with this guy at the beginning of the semester and he moved on just when I was really starting to like him. I can't help but still have feelings for him even though I don't know how he feels anymore. I think that going home and getting away from all this will be a good thing for me. It also makes it hard because my two best friends here have guys in their lives, causing my lack of a love life to be very noticable. I'm just too picky when it comes to dating. And then when I do choose a guy, I am too shy and scared to do anything about it. Thus, I miss out almost every time. That's life I suppose and who knows if I will ever learn. I have a good feeling about this summer, however. I hope to not spend too much of it working and a lot of it enjoying myself. Who knows where I'll be next summer so I think I should enjoy this one to it's fullest.

college

Today was my first day back at college since before Christmas. Being a new semester, I start new classes. I had a sculpture class (which I am a little concerned about because I know nothing about that sort of thing) and a drawing class today. Tomorrow I have my first English class at 8 am and then don't have a class until 5:00 in the evening. The break in between is long, and often find myself just sitting around if I don't have much to do. Hopefully I'll find something though. I look forward to a fresh start this year. I've decided to change a few things about myself as my new year's resolution. I'm going to try and be a little bit more brave by doing and saying things I normally wouldn't. I'm a relativley quiet person so maybe being a little more out-spoken won't be such a bad thing? Who knows. It's a new year and anything can happen!

summer!

The other day I went for a drive in the mountains and took some pictures :)

What do you think?

iPhone

I, much like many other people out there, own an iPhone.

Overall, I LOVE it. It's basically like my own mini computer that I can do anything with. I love it when I'm able to answer any question I have by simply using my google app whenever I feel like it. It's a source of entertainment when I'm bored but at the same time is a dictionary for when I want to look up the meaning of something. It tells me when I have an appointment coming up and it can also tell me when I have a new notification on facebook. It even can give me directions for how to drive somewhere when I'm lost. (which happens often..) My one and only complaint about the lovely little device called the iPhone is the fragile screen. I am clumsy and drop things often.

The other day I was getting out of my car and stupidly thought that I had put my phone into my purse, which I of course hadn't. After watching it bounce a couple times across the asphalt of the mall parking lot and land underneath the car I was parked beside, I realized that I had actually left it sitting on my lap. Ooops. I stood in shock as a stared down at my most prized possession laying on the ground with a huge spiderweb crack crawling down the screen. Needless to say, I was heartbroken. I immediately went and bought Apple Care (insurance for when terrible things like this happen). Thankfully, I can still use it. Kind of.

Anyone else had this problem before? What did you do? I'll probably call apple but do they normally replace iPhone screens? Let me know pleeeeaseee!

Shiver

Hi!
So i'm new to this blogging thing but here we go.
Today i'm going to write about this book that I'm reading called "Shiver" by Maggie Stiefvater. I'm not going to lie, when I first started reading it I was a little skeptical. After reading the back of the book, my initial assumption was that it was a "Twilight" knock-off. Only after I read a few chapters my mind changed. I like how the main character Grace isn't all "damsel in distress". She actually is a strong, independent person who (for a change) saves the guy who she loves. I also liked how the werewolves change according to temperature, not the time of day. I thought that was a cool twist. Of course, I couldn't help but notice some similarities to other books I've read. (mainly the Twilight saga). But I have to admit that I have not been able to put the book down the past few days. It's not one of my favorite books, but so far I am really enjoying it.
Thanks to anyone who took the time to read this..if there was anyone..
