New Year and back to school!

Even though last year was great in so many areas, I am convinced that 2011 will be even better. So many projects, goals, adventures, and dates to plan/look forward to!

As of last Monday, Justin and I are back in college. We played with our schedule a bit and got to register for the same Philosophy class! So far we really like our professor (what's not to like about an animated Italian guy from New York that speaks incredibly fast?) and the class looks rather promising. Oh, we also went on a little date to Wendy's on our way home.

Eclipse

Pontiac Vibe= A few $$$$

Plush throw= $10

Snuggling in the backseat of the car with my husband the very first winter night of the year to see the eclipse = PRICELESS!

I love you, Justin. Thank you for being such a great best friend :)

Victor

Today is one of those days I wish I stayed in bed.

Work was very busy and didn't really get a break.

My belly hurts and will keep hurting for a few days {draw your own conclusions}

And it's just so cold and windy outside, I can't enjoy it!

But above all, I just found out an old friend passed away.

Victor Rodriguez Bahamonde.

(May 9, 1989 - December 13, 2010)

I'm so mad at cancer it makes me want to cry. He was only 21 and wanted to fight and grow old. He didn't want to leave yet. And that makes me want to cry even more.

Love you and will always remember you.

This video is amazing. The creativity behind its making wows me to no end. I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do :)

December 8th

Happy birthday, mom!!!!!

Te quiero, te amo, temuco!

Babies and birthdays

It's not that I don't like writing. Time flies when you're having fun (and working retail!)

Important family news: CASEY AND JEFF ARE HAVING A BABY! It's been about a month since they found out and they are thrilled! Congrats, guys!

Dear baby S.: You are grandchild #8 and we can't wait to meet you! I may have started eyeing cute fashionable clothes for you...

Also, I turned 22! It feels good, actually just as good as being 21. No mid-life crisis for me yet!

Here are some pictures from dinner that night:

I promise, if only to myself, to write more often.

I'd rather be wearing

As everyone knows, Florida is a warm paradise. Yes, ALWAYS HOT. It's November and 86 degrees! I love florida, don't get me wrong, but I'd really enjoy wearing something else besides summer shorts and thin tank tops most of the year. I can't truly say how excited I am for fall weather to arrive (and hopefully stay for a while.)

So, here is what I'd rather be wearing today...

Now that looks more like fall to me.
