I am NOW an SJSU Graduate !!!!

Hello Everyone :)

Well, it's all over now. I took my last final and went to my last class meeting. I also said my goodbyes to some classmates and teachers. One of my classmates in my Spanish class wrote me a beatiful goodbye note. My roommate also moved out tonight, so now its kinda empty. She gave me a book for my trip to Spain. All I have left is to do is go to the graduation ceremonies. But pretty soon that will all be behind me, faster than I can blink an eye. You can believe that I will be soaking these days in.

My dad will be coming down, and my mom will be at both ceremonies. My family says that they are real proud of me, and I am happy. The last time I got this much attention was for my high school graduation and 21st birthday. So I am gonna enjoy these days.

Well, thats all for now.

99.999999% Finished

Hello everyone,

Well, I am studying for my very last final in SPAN 101B, my advanced Spanish class. Then I am DONE. My studying is a little harder than I thought. I put it off too long, and I forgot a lot of the material. Oops.

I am sorta sad that this is all coming to an end. It's funny because all semester I was looking forward to this moment. And now it is finally here............. And in no time, I will be talking about my experinces in Europe. Then what?

In a few days my graduation will be behind me and I will be saying goodbye to my friends and coworkers. I will also be officially entering the real working world and competing with a lot of people just like me.

I am also realizing just how short life is, especially since it is moving sooooo fast. I feel like my life is just happening too fast. After I turned 21, things just sped up. I wanted to grow up so fast, and while I was a kid and teenager I never thought that I would become an adult. Now that I am an adult I am reminiscing back to when I was growing up because back then I had my whole life in front of me and had planty of time to plan my future. Now the future is here and passing me by. So now I am just trying to enjoy my twenties. I love being this age, and I don't want to get older. I also feel that I don't have a lot of time to put my goals off. If I want something I need to just go for it.

My roommate is also moving out. On one side I am happy because she was noisy in the mornings and would just annoy the shit out of me while I was trying to sleep in. On the other hand, her moving out is sad because I liked her, and this is emphasizing that my college days are over. I have to move out soon and that is gonna be hard for me when I have to look at the vacant living room and hand back the keys.

As I am pondering what will happen for me down the road, I know that I will face obstacles, but I feel lucky that I have lived a blessed life so far. And I hope that you all feel the same way. Okay, enough deep talk for now.

I do have to share that while I was walking to the library I ran into a hot Israeli guy that I met last year. He got even more buffed and we talked for like 2 minutes. He hugged me twice and each time I practically buried my face into his chest. He smelled good too. Roooar.

Just while I was walking to my car, I saw the parking monkey writing a ticket for my car. I was lucky because I managed to talk myself out of it. I remained calm and put on my pouty face. I also told him a bunch of white lies of how I almost never park in the garage and wasn't familiar with the rules. And to my surprise it worked !!!!!

Okay, back to studying for my last final as an undergrad at SJSU.

 

A Lazy Weekend

Hello Everyone,

Well, I only have one more final to go, and that is my SPAN 101B final, for my advanced Spanish class. It's on Wednesday, so I am not doing any studying this weekend. The week was rough enough.

I also put in my two weeks notice yesterday at work, even though I still have three weeks. Three years of my life were spent at Red Lobster, and now it's coming to an end real soon.

Speaking of work, this weekend has been SO slow. I was taken off the foor early today. I really only worked like 3 hours today. I think its so slow because of graduation season. Thank God that I am not working during my graduation weekend.

Okay, I better go now.

Almost an Alumni !!!!

Hello everyone,

Damn, this week was rough. At least I got my BUS 139 project outta the way. We met with the teacher about our project on Monday and he told us everything was fine and gave us some pointers. That was good because I spent a lot of time on my Power Point slides. Then we went to him again on Tues with the improvements made. And what did he do???? He told us that our presentation wasn't good enough, so I  had to spend yet another sleepless night working on it. But at least its over with now, and at least I know we're getting a good grade. I feel sorry for the group presenting next week. I am SO lucky that I had a good group. We worked together well.

I also just got out of a RIDICULOUS exam in my SPAN 102B class. That teacher was just way too hard. I am getting a f****ing C+ in that class. I worked my tail off so hard. He expected all of us to write like we were highly educated native Spanish speakers. HELLO. NEWS FLASH !!!!! I am an UNDERGRAD and a GRINGA. Whatever. Its over anyways.

Besides, next weekend is my graduation ceremony. I am nervous and excited about that. I don't even know what to expect. I hope a lot of the people that I invited show up.

I also sold back my textbooks and I got more money than I expected. Yay !! But of course there were some books I just couldn't sell back. Oh well.

Well, I came here expecting to write a lot more, but I just can't. I also forgot to sell back the rest of my textbooks so I guess I gotta go back to school now.

Later.

What a GAWDAWFUL night...................

Hello my lovelies...........

Jesus Tap-Dancing Christ !! I swear, why the hell do I bother at Red Lobster anymore??? People were nice to me, but DAMN, tips just sucked sooooo damn bad tonight. I REALLY need money for my trip, and I am BUSTING my ass for these tables. It's not like I am asking for charity here. I am working for the money. Take for example a table of 2 Mexican ladies. They ate a lot of food and had a lot of requests. They also hogged the table for a good 2 hours. The bill was $119.00. They left me 5 dollars. FIVE FUCKING DOLLARS. Was I rude to them after they handed me the 5 dollar tip and proceeded to hog my table ?? No, I sucked it up and acted like nothing happened. After all, they were nice and grateful that I gave great service. They were just ignorant to tipping ettiquette. Most Latino people I serve here just DO NOT know how to tip. I think it has to do with how they do things in their countries.

Another table sat down 2 minutes before closing and ordered a fucking steak and full lobster, which takes an eternity to cook. Thankfully they were nice, but they took FOREVER. I finally was finished by 11:40. We closed at 10pm. WTF???? Thankfully they tipped me well too, but I had to share the tip with the hostess that spoke Spanish and helped me translate. It was a table of 2 people. This white guy was taking out this Mexican girl that spoke ZERO English. Unfortunately the girl didn't have such a good time and said that to our hostess. Poor guy. He was basically trying to consult one of his El Cheapo electronic translators. Haha., he was also kinda drooling all over her. Sucker. My boss felt sorry for the guy, because he was polite and attractive, but just didn't win her over.

So here I am typing away. I was supposed to e-mail my business group my part of a presentation today, but I didn't, partly because I was lazy......... I guess I'll have to finish it tommorow.
