Hiiii. It's that time of year again. When Alex gets super nosy and into your business. I posted this early so you guys had more time to get it all done. It's honestly just a little unreal how fast this year has gone for me. I remember when I returned to school after getting off of winter break at the beginning of the year. It seems like so much has happened since then but in such a short amount of time. I remember asking myself at the beginning of the year, "Will people still say hella in a few months? Probably not." And yet, here I am still, thinking everything is hella rad. Which is just a poor example of how fast this year has gone, but it's been such an eventful year. So, to sum it up, I've posted this survey again. I've modified a few things,  but it's just so hella rad from before that a lot of the stuff is the same. Okay, so I hope everyone has had not necessarily a great year, but at least a memorable one because the important events in our life, whether good or bad, are the ones that shape us and push us to be better.

Okay, here we goooooo...

Did you have a resolution last year and did you keep it?

Do you feel bad about not keeping it?

Coffee is my life-blood

Not sure if any of you (besides Rachel) are still reading the blog, but I suppose I'll still post for this week.

It's official. I have become a coffee addict. I seriously have to have a cup of coffee every morning, otherwise I get grumpy and I get this awful headache (caffeine withdrawals). I have become so much of a hot drink addict, that yesterday I ordered this Supernatural mug off of HotTopic's website. It says "Supernatural. Join the Hunt" on it, and Castiel is on it too. And the best part is when you put hot liquid in it CAS'S WINGS APPEAR.

I have been extremely tired all the time lately. It's weird. I haven't changed my sleeping habits from the rest of the semester, but maybe everything is just catching up to me and hitting me harder than usual now.

I'm borrowing one of my friend's Pokemon Emerald games, and I just beat my first gym leader yesterday. ROXANNE CAN SUCK IT.


AND THAT LITTLE SHIT STANDING NEXT TO HER IS WHAT CAUSED ME TO HAVE TO TRY THREE TIMES TO BEAT HER. BUT I FINALLY TRIUMPHED.

Anyway, hmmmm..... I bought my first ugly sweater yesterday too. The chemistry club is having an ugly sweater Christmas party, so I needed it for that. It's red and white and kinda weird.

So I come home Wednesday for Thanksgiving, but I can't leave until 5 because I have to give a speech for my speech class, which runs from 3-5. My poor professor tried canceling class so that she could spend Thanksgiving in New York, but the department said that she couldn't cancel because campus doesn't close until 5 (which is when the class ends). And she can't cancel it quietly without them knowing,  because they are going to be watching the classroom to make sure she has class.

I think I'm going to end this on that note.

Love,
Sara

Always.

After All This Time?

Ah jeez. I have seriously slacked on posting on here and keeping up with all of you and what's been going on. It's terrible, and I am so sorry. Life has been extremely crazy over the past couple of months between school, my tutoring job, the alchemist club, and trying to keep somewhat of a social life here on campus. Unfortunately these things have caused me to neglect a very important part of my life: you beautiful ladies. It is a goal of mine to get back into posting once a week on here in hopes of staying in touch better. So, here it goes. My first post of the school year.

I love my Organic Chemistry class. I am so so glad that I did not change my major and get out of chemistry last year, because I was really close to giving up on it. I just didn't like it last semester, but that's because freshman are stuck taking the boring General Chemistry classes. But I like Organic. It's interesting to see how different things react and how one little change can transform a molecule.

I definitely DON'T like Physics. One minute I'm understanding everything, and then I turn right around and it's like my professor is speaking Chinese. I'm still doing well in the class, but due to lots of hours struggling through the homework.

So, last Sunday (November 9) Connor and I celebrated our one year anniversary. It was so sweet. We got all dressed up (he wore a suit jacket and tie!), he took me out to dinner, and then we went to go see a movie. We wanted to see The Maze Runner, but it was no longer showing, so instead we went to see Big Hero Six. It's a really cute movie. It made me cry. Go figure. He's still poking fun at me for that. He's honestly the sweetest, kindest, guy I've ever meet. He's so smart, funny, honest, loyal, caring, and gentle, and I can't imagine how the last year of my life would have been if I didn't meet him. I love him so much, guys. I really do. He means so much to me, and it's been an honor to call him my boyfriend for this past year.

Right now I'm just chilling in my room watching Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Both Connor and my roommate went home this weekend, so I'm going to be spending the weekend trying to get as much homework done as I possibly can. I have a big speech (for speech class, duh), a short paper fr my CSI class, physics homework (ugh), and some reading to do for classes. But for right now, it's just me and good ol' Harry.

So, here's a music video. It's kinda sad, but I love the song.

Aw crap. I bet my laundry is done. I should probably put that in the dryer....

Okay, well, since that's done, I have one more story. Every Friday. And I mean EVERY Friday, there is a group of six or so guys that all pack into a truck and ride all around campus yelling "Happy Friday" at everyone that they see walking around, and they do this for FOUR HOURS. EVERY FRIDAY. And, since Halloween happened to land on a Friday this year, they all wore masks and threw candy at people. It was great. I don't consider my Friday complete until I have them yell at me.

Anyway, until next week!

Love always,
Sara

Hey there party people! It's been awhile, so I just thought I'd post some pics from the orchard to jump start this.

I hope everyone is having fun with their secret santa. If you're struggling, remember that you can always ask one other person for help.

Things are pretty chill with me. Just been going to class and babysitting for minimum wage. Besides that, not much else. I've been obsessing over my nephew. I told my parents all I want for Christmas is for them to put my nephew in a box so I can open it. I started crying at lunch when I told them that because it would be so amazing. I'm usually not too into kids. I love all my nieces and nephews and love hanging out with them, but with my new nephew, it's different. I just feel so much love whenever I see him. Normally I don't get really excited about them until they stop being babies, but I just love him so much. I don't want him to get any older! He started crawling last weekend, and I started crying when I first saw it. He's hurting me. My sister-in-law seems kinda jealous sometimes when he wants me to hold him, but I get jealous when she holds him. I'm always sending them pictures of him. I have so many pictures of him in my phone. Oh Goddd I think I'm gonna go over to my brother's house right now because I miss him so much. I get to see him tomorrow though! The only thing that sucks about babysitting him is that I have to babysit my niece as well. I love her and she's hilarious, but she's just not Michael. Oh God, I need a shot.

So mine and Gardenia's humanities professor is amazing. She's this older woman with the face of an angel and the wisdom of a god. I just want to sit and drink tea with her. We have a 3 hour class with her, but she keeps it so interesting the entire time. I have cried so many times in that class. HER NAME IS PENELOPE BLAKE ITS SO FUCKING CUTE OMG IM IN LOVE WITH HER. My sister has it with us and she's going to name her daughter Penelope and her son Blake. One week she asked us the question: if we were in the Louvre looking at the Mona Lisa and the only other person in the room was a little old woman and the building was burning down and you only had time to save one, would you save the Mona Lisa or the old woman? I said if it was her in the room, I would save her and not the most important piece of art in the world because she is my queen.

It is confirmed that Brooke's tennis team's assistant is super attractive. I got to see him in person and he's really pretty and really charming and I'm slightly in love with him now okay bye.

My hair is coming along nicely. It's gotten too long though so I'm probably gonna cut it shorter. Having short hair is very nice. It's much easier to just wake up in the morning, especially if I don't have time for a shower, to just shake it out and go. Sometimes, especially when I'm showering, I think that I forgot to take my hair out, so I reach up and realize it's all gone. My head gets so cold now! I always have to bring a hat to class because I get so cold. I now understand why guys leave their hats on in class. Me and my dad just walk around the house wearing hats all the time because our poor heads are freezing. And we poke fun at each other all the time, too. Or my sister will say, "You should do your hair like this..." then, "Oh wait,. You can't." They think they're so funny. I only miss it when my sister is doing her hair because she has all these pretty curls. I miss the fresh, wet curls after getting out of a shower. But then it gets dry and annoying, so I'm happy it's gone. 

I pierced my nose again. Gonna switch to a hoop once it heals completely. It hurt this time cause the guy just stuck a cork up my nose and stuck the needle through. Damn. Normally they have these small tong things to put on your nostril to apply pressure, so you don't feel anything. But I felt it. 

It's been two months since my concert..still not over it. And just like I did before the concert, I cried about it during breakfast. I will never be over it.

So, apple orchard. It was a lot of fun. Very cold. But I got donuts, so it's all good.

Rachel was the goat whisperer

Cover for our album. Look for it to drop around Christmas. Gonna be sick.

Brooke was so happy just to find pumpkins

Look at dem jeans

Maryanne would look like a model

Wez got pumpkins bitches

 We have puppies...

There are 8 of them. 5 boys and 3 girls. Kaya had them about 3 weeks ago now. They're so pretty and I'll post more pics of them later when they get older and more fun. They're just starting to walk and only one or two of them leave the comfort of their bed. 

That's Payno. We always find him in the living room in the morning.

Their names are Payno, Tommo, Nando, Hazza, Bradford (Lil B), Lottie, Fizzy, and Gemma

Tommo. He's so chill. He'll just sleep on his back. He doesn't care.

Payno hangin' out

Gemma

Tommo staring lovingly into Sabrina's eyes.

All of them.

Bradford. He just sits there looking pretty all the time. He's the prettiest of them all and he knows it.

Marissa, your post was awesome! Wall of death D;

I just found me a tall drank of water. Vitamin Water. (;

Wooo! Marissa is finally conjuring up a magical post!
Honestly, I haven't exactly had any frivolous words to say other than to complain about work and school. Just as I always do annyywwaays. I still do not have an important story to tell. However, I did feel like I should post something since my lack of posts has been quite preposterous.
So. I want to start undergoing so many adventures. As soon as I can find time. Most importantly I want to go to concerts. LOTS AND LOTS OF CONCERTS. I wanna be one of those fist-pumping, sweaty, screaming chicks in the middle of the crowd. Maybe not as feminine as the One Direction fangirls, no. More like.. Rock concert girls. The ones who join in the walls of death, the one who crowd surfs, and the girl who doesn't give a damn if someone ends up punching her in the face from all the excitement.
If any of you fabulous ladies do not know what a wall of death is.. shame on you.

Basically, the crowd separates into two groups, one on the left, and one on the right.

Then, in a mass of flying human parts, they converge on one another in a screaming frenzy and smash into one another. And yes. There will be blood.

I'm sort of freaking out right now because I have a math test in T-Minus 13 minutes. Oh wait. We're reviewing first. So in an hour or so. I'm probably.. more than likely... going to fail. Yayyy. If anyone understands simplifying complex fractions hit me up. RIGHT NOW BEFORE I HAVE A PANIC ATTACK AND DIE. SERIOUSLY. I NEED HELP.

I actually get to go home after school today and just breathe for once without worrying about some crazy amounts of shit I have to do.
I'll be back eventually. I should probably put my laptop away before my teacher decides to enter the premises I call hell. Ciao.

My math test is over and done with. Thank god. I really had nothing to worry about since she helped us if we needed  it.

I just found a penguin hat at the goodwill. I'm so excited. You dont even understand. 

I really should finish this post.. but yeah. Ooohh! We're finally getting a new assisstant manager at my store. So I'll finally be able to calm down and I'll have an easier schedule. I'm gonna miss the nice paychecks though. I was able to pay my bills and have a little left over. We'll see how it goes though. I'm gonna end this post now. Au revoir!
