Interesting week...

So school went fine as usual. Classes still enjoyable, but this week I was really tired. I almost fell asleep in my sociology class yesterday because I was so tired.

So I am getting the idea from my coach that I am captain of the track team this season. I hope I am I mean I am already planning a get to know each other night at Camelot and we are going to play Lazer tag! I was actually surprised to see how many people were excited about going. So I am pretty happy with my choice to do that.

Going to start working on my 2nd podcast later tonight. Sunday Portia and I might go to Mainplace see a little movie and just hang out.

Kids shoes...

...designed by ME!

My creations...

soon to be for sale!

Yay me!

Yesterday I got two free tickets to see Lost 80's night at HOB Anaheim. It was fun. Portia and I went and had a blast! We got them from my twitter contact Rock Da Mullet. Pretty cool huh?

SO today I went to Cafe Contigo and surprisingly got alot of homework done. THere was a domino tourney there today so I had to sit in the back room, but it was ok. I didn't really mind. I got a coffee and was just relaxing doing my homework. No little brothers or sisters yelling and being loud. It was a nice change. I think I am going to do it more often.

Well no school Monday. Happy about that. Tons of homework due on Wednesday and I have 2 quizzes also. I am not even worried though.

School...

is driving me crazy already! I have already had so many assignments and I have been busy with cross country/track and I have been tired (mentally and physically) and sore.

Cafe Contigo...

I am here at Cafe Contigo and I am waiting for Portia to arrive. Going to get some GOOD coffee...unlike Starbucks haha and there is a band performing tonight at 8 a flamenco band and I am looking forward to hearing them. It only took me about 10 minutes to get here, but it felt faster because I was flying...like Olympic or Tour de France fast and I was on a roll! It was fun. I am a little sweaty though...its a workout. Well going to enjoy my time here. Will post pics of band later.

Wow heres an update...

So my birthday did pass last Friday and it was super fun! Portia, Danielle and I went to the House of Blues to see a great Tribute band to U2. They were awesome and the concert was so fun. Portia and I were dancing the whole time. It was hotter than the desert in there though and we went to get some water and it was FREE! I was surprised because I didn't think it would be free especially at the House of Blues. We each got like 4 glasses. It was some good water.

Now I am 19...so old. Not really still younger than most of my friends in my class at school. They are almost 20 years old and one is 23. Yes I know.

I got my schedule today. Anthropology and Philosophy on Mondays/Wednesdays and English, Photography and Sociology on Tuesdays/Wednesdays. No school on Fridays of course. Pretty busy schedule and I have meetings on Mondays and Wednesdays at sometime for Athletics Commissioner...yes that is me! :)

So school starts on Monday. I am looking forward to it. Interesting classes and excited about our new coach who is coolio!

Interesting day!

So yesterday I was cleaning out my turtles home and I left them on the kitchen counter so that they could get a little more sun and some fresh air. When my dad told me to put them back he had written SUSHI FOR SALE with 2 arrows pointing to my turtles. You know what? It won't come off too! So now I have a cage with big old red sharpie letters saying that pointing to my poor babies. Its so sad.

So today I got sworn in for commissioner and it was pretty cool. The whole college board was there and they were telling me what i have to do and the rules. Pretty much the same rules as Senate which I can handle and the responsibilities I can handle also. I was so excited and nervous though that I would trip or something when they called my name. I can totally picture myself doing that.

Today at practice was H-A-R-D! We had 2 300s 1 150 and stride 100. It was pretty hot today and after the 150 and the 1st 300 I wasn't feeling so well. Then after the last 300 I finally did it! Threw up...gross I know but you don't understand. I was the only one on the team last year who never threw up at any practice.

Ah the Olympics start on Friday and I am pretty excited. I might be going to HOB to see a U2 Tribute band with Portia and Danielle. It will be pretty cool! I am excited plus its only 10 bucks!

Look what my dad did for me!

I sent this drawing to my dad and he colored it for me. Looks pretty cool huh?

Dang kids!

So today Bradley and I had to watch the kids and for some unknown reason, Siobhan especially was being an extra bratty today. I don't know what was with her today, but she had a bad seed in her today. Diego was fine but her...oh my gosh!

We started watching Sound of Music today. We only watched half though. You know little kids and 2 hour movies don't get along well. We also had The Hat for dinner and oh goodness those sandwiches are humongous. I only ate half and I was so stuffed! It was pretty good though.

Well I start school in 2 weeks. Kind of excited but I still want to go to the beach next week. Maybe Ill go on my bday if Portia doesn't work. That would be cool.

My new drawings...

So I was a little bored earlier and had nothing to do so I drew. I came up with these 2 drawings. I like drawing crosses. I don't know why, but I just do.

Good day!

Well today I had a great practice. Did some sprints/distance. Coach J wants me to go tomorrow also but I have to see what we have going on. He wants to work on a little hurdle tomorrow but I don't know. My mom wants me to go because she wants me to get the printout of my classes for her. Next semester taking: Sociology 101, Philosophy 101, Photo, English Writing, and 3 track classes. It's a pretty busy load but I can handle it.

Today I scanned some old pictures of my 1st Communion and our family hiking trip. They are so adorable. My 1st communion ones I don't even remember some of my classmates names. We need a reunion. Bradley is already having a reunion for Holy Family and they haven't even graduated HS yet. St. Norbert's should have one.

Portia still wants to go on a beach trip next Tuesday. I said lets go for my bday on Friday but shes not sure because she might have to work...boo!

New artist...

I found his names Taio Cruz. Hes from England and hes pretty good. I like his song Ill Never Love Again.

Adorable!

more cat pictures

wow...

the earthquake today was CRAZY!!! I was standing in our dining room because Nacho was acting weird and I thought he wanted to go to the bathroom and as soon as I let him out the house ground started shaking and then swaying and I was like ooohh man! Stuff was falling down and the pictures were all crooked. We only had one thing break out of everything in our house which I thought was pretty good since we have alot of breakables. Then I went in my room...oh my goodness. My whole bookshelf had been emptied. I had to put everything back.

So today we watched this movie. Green Street Hooligans was what it was called. It was a good movie. I really liked it. Elijah Wood has some blue eyes though.

Tomorrow I have counselor meeting tomorrow. Final changes to my major. Finally going to get that done. Cross it off my list. Portia finally talked to her mom about our San Diego trip and her mom said her dad has to talk to my dad. I don't think its going to happen when we planned it though. We wanted to go next Tuesday but I don't think that is going to happen.

My podcast is almost done!

Yes people it is almost done. Just have to load it on iTunes. I am already working on the next one.

So practice yesterday...OMG! It was pretty hard. Sprinting is soooo much fun and I missed it for sure. I did 2 100s yesterday with many other thing s and I got 12.6 and 12.8 not to bad with no blocks and I slowed down at the end too. Tomorrow I have 300, 200, 150 and 2x100s. Got to get mentally ready for that one lol haven't ran a 300 in a LONG time!

My birthday is next week! I am going to finally be 19 lol all my friends have been 19 for a while now and I am finally going to be 19. My last teen year! Scary! My birthday means THE OLYMPICS! So excited to watch it!

We finally have a name!

The dogs name is Nacho lol. Its so cute and he already knows it a little. He is so adorable and I like him so much!

New Puppy!

We got a new puppy 2 days ago. We got him from a couple that we know that works at Cafe Contigo. He is so cute. 5 months and hes a "blue" applehead Chihuahua. A rare kind I guess. His name was Chiwi but we are going to change it. We don't know what we are going to name him yet.

So far we have:
*Bruno
*Pico (me)
and others I don't remember.

So I am finally going to have my major finally changed. I have to talk to my counselor next week and then it will be done. School starts in less than a month and I register for my classes tomorrow. I am pretty excited about this semester. Interesting new classes that I have no idea what they are about, but have people that have taken them or know them to help me.

We had a track meeting on Wednesday and we already have a fundraiser on Sunday...pretty soon huh? Well we are going to Universal Studios for the show "Moment of Truth". Never saw it, but some people said its a good show. Its going to be all day Sunday. We leave school at 9:30 AM then are supposed to be back at 6 PM. Not sure yet if I am going to go. Have to get the parents permission first.

Thats really all that has happened this week. So looking forward to Saturday, Siobhan's soccer teams last game. See how they do.

Last day...

Right now we are in the lobby waiting for Ximena and family to meet us for some breakfast. Its our last day and I think we are just going to eat, maybe swim a little and then go. Siobhan has a game tonight at 6:30 so I think we are going to try to make that. She also has one tomorrow night. Her season is almost over.

Right now we just finished breakfast and I am out on the balcony/porch where Siobhan and Ximena are playing soccer with a Hello Kitty beach ball. They are so cute together and they have alot of fun even though they don't understand each other. Its cute. I am so full right now. I just ate a big bowl of fruit and I am pretty full. I dont want to come home but mom has to work tomorrow and I am going to have to register for school soon. I just keep looking at the beach and its so beautiful. I could look at it all day unlike Huntington Beach which has those big oil rigs out on it. There are also some big old pelicans here. A bunch and they are so big. They fly over and I didn't know that they were so big. They are cool though when they fly into the water.
