goodbye summer :)

I had the best end to my summer. I don't regret anything I did. Everything happens for a reason, and I learned so much. Growing up and maturing has been one of the most fascinating aspects of this transition called college. You finally get settled in high school and have your group of friends, only to be separated by higher education. You all spread out, thinking that everyone's changing for the worse, and it's so interesting how we're all feeling the same. But then again, people also change... it's not necessarily good or bad, it's just different. 

Christina Aguilera knows life

“some days i’m a SUPER BITCH, up to my own tricks...”

Or, at least she understands mine [my life].

(haha, it’s probably because we are fellow Christina’s/Kristina’s)

So, I’m still working full-time, and I hate it. Especially since I thought I was going part-time last weekend! I’ve tried to look past that minor change (eff you false promises at work), but my let down has really affected my week and work has just left me really frustrated. I’ve been waking up super early for work only to then go to bed a few hours after I’m finished with my shift to prepare myself for… work. Go figure.

Pretty much, I’m really hating life because my life = work right now. What makes me even more sad is the possibility that I will enter this vicious cycle of life in Corporate America after I graduate. For the rest of my life.

“but it won’t last forever…”

So I’m on my last full-time week of work, but it’ll end early for me because I’m going on a much needed vacation very, very soon.

“next day i’m your SUPER GIRL, out to save the world…”

I’m ready to have a few days of a REAL summer, as defined by other young adults around me (OH SHIT I’m a young adult now! When did this happen?? Oh yeah, on my birthday. lol) After some much need rest&relaxation, I’ll be ready for Apple, my amazing fall classes, ICC, and any other shizz that life is going to throw at me!

I just need to keep my head up.

teen dramas capture my heart <3

Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, The Hills (and the list continues...).

Sounds like your Monday night? Or your latest obsession with sex, scandals, and revenge but the ultimate return to true love aka those irresistible teen dramas?

"i hate these shows; they repeat this same theme over and over and it's just so in your face"
"yeah, but they capture the idea of love quite well."

They do capture it quite well, and I admit that I'm addicted, but certain scenes and their respective characters resonate within me too well: Serena, Casey, Heidi. I think I'm leaning toward Serena, which ::gasps:: ultimately means I'm getting hooked to Gossip Girl. Damn you Monday night living room activity!

Character development and dramatic irony. love it.
