so close yet so far away!

five more weeks of classes, one week of finals and then summer is finally here!!! it just feels like these are going to be the longest five weeks of my life!!! haha.. no but seriously.. all my classes are getting harder and more time consuming, but at least I know that we are getting closer and that it will all be over soon..

So this weekend has been really hard on the Angola community. Four high school students from Angola high school were killed in a car accident on their way back from spring break and I just wanted to take a minute to remember them and think about their families and friends who are suffering this loss.

with that being said, there isn't a whole lot going on in my life at Trine right now.. besides studying my life away.. getting ready for Take Back The Night in two weeks is basically it.. I love that event, because it's a great way to raise awareness, and also a time where all students who participate take time for this great cause and just hang out together.. and lately I haven't gotten a lot of that, so hopefully that will be a nice night.. and hopefully it won't rain like last year!!

so this is about it for now.. I'm hoping to have some great and exciting news next week

Spring Break is Over!!

Hey everybody!!!
I'm sorry I haven't been on here in forever, but my life has been so busy with classes, labs, and personal stuff that I lost track of thigs for a while.. But I'm back.. I promise!!
So spring break is over.. that sucks.. I went with a couple of friends and friends of friends to Panama City Beach, Florida!!! it was amazing.. except for the fact that we had only two days of actual good days, friday and saturday, the day we left.. I still had fun with my friends though, it was a good week away from homework, tests, quizzes, and school in general..
So now that we're all back you know what that means??? homework, quizzes and tests every week for the next 7 weeks and then finally summer break.. I need these 7 weeks to go by fast, because this has been a crazy semester, and in all honesty, I just want to get out of here ASAP!!!
I promise I'll post more regularly from now on...
So hope you'll enjoy my posts from now on...
XOXO

Back at school!!

Welcome back everybody!!!
sorry it's been a while since the last time I wrote on here, but I had no internet for a couple of days and then I got busy packing and getting ready to come back to school.. So today was the first day of classes for this spring semester and I have to say I liked the two classes I had today (Genetics and Forensic Biology)... It still doesn't mean that I will continue to like them as time goes by, since we didn't really go over anything today, but the first impression was good.. this semester will be busy, like every semester I've had here at Trine, but hopefully not too hard (that would be awesome.. even though I already know it's not going to be easy at all!!)...
So my last couple of days in Italy were fantastic.. I think I gained 20lbs every time I ate at home and even more when I ate at my grandmas... you know how in the movies you always see the typical italian grandma putting food in your plate even though you already told her ten times that you're done?? well it's exactly like that at my house..I guess that's one stereotype that movies got right.. lol.. yeah there is no way to tell your grandma you ate too much.. I don't know why.. the fact that they're both a little deaf might be part of the reason, but they have to see that you're turning green every time you put something in your mouth.. lol..
Beside eating like there is no tomorrow, I had to say bye to everybody which was kind of sad.. three weeks are definitely not enough.. but three months in the summer should be ok.. and I mean it's Italy, it can't get much better than that for me.. lol..
well for now this is everything.. I'm still working on getting past that stupid jet lag that gets to me every time I travel and also getting adjusted with the new classes, so I will have some more to share with you the next time..
Hope everybody is enjoying the snow (cause I'm not!!!)
xoxo
