Don't do it.
I'm telling you, i'm doing it right now for my statistics class and you can see how helpful it's being.
Although i will admit i actually enjoy being able to surf facebook and not being productive during class.
i have Spanish next, should we try the laptop method again?

"Finally Legal!"
I can't be the only person that's irked by people who legitimately get excited about turning 21, even though they've been partying since they were preteens.
Here are my thoughts when those people expect me to be happy for them, "Seriously, you've already been drinking. I don't see the point in making a big deal over you being legal when you've been living like you are already."
I get it, you can finally order wine like mommy and daddy, you're still annoying.
Also, i hope you enjoy it because this is the last time birthdays mean anything. Well this and 25, because then you can legally rent a car. But you probably already do that because you're soooooo hardcore.
Also, your liver will hate you at some point in your life. Just saying.

That Awkward Moment
Guys, i embarrassed myself today. Like, i'm kind of legitimately ashamed about it. Okay, now that i'm thinking about it i probably embarrassed myself twice today. I hate these moments, why you may ask? and i'll tell you why.... because i.... don't know.
Sometimes, actually, more often than not, i do things without actually thinking them through. Which isn't totally a bad thing, it means i'm spontaneous... and fun, you hear that boys? just kidding. While i like being able to just do stuff whenever or say whatever pops into my head at the moment at the same time i've found that it's embarrassing because i imagine scenarios before i talk about something so i've already imagined the situation playing out in my mind while the person i'm talk to has not. if i'm being totally honest i have no idea what i'm talking about right now because this post has essentially turned into one giant rant.... so. Yeah.
Oh... embarrassing myself!
Okay. So anyway i embarrassed myself and it was well.... humiliating. Normally i know how to respond to situations, you know, i can deal with certain problems or concerns that come up, but i just couldn't respond, i'm stuck sitting there smiling like a dork because i think it's a hilarious situation while the other person is sitting there thinking, "what in the heck just happened?" I smile through it because it's like honestly what else am i going to do? i realize that this is awkward that's what makes it hilarious.
So, in the awkward moments, smile and keep on keeping on.

No, creepy family member, i will not add you....
Okay, i can't be the only person that gets random friend requests from family members that claim to remember when, "you were just a baby!"
If you're one of those family members, I URGE you to not creep out your family members by sending them a fb message / friend request. Because honestly chances are they probably don't know who you are, and if you know them when they were just a zygote i wouldn't expect them to remember that.
I appreciate being able to connect with family, i just find it weird when some random family member tries to add me..... i don't know, maybe that's just me.

Being Told You're Fat By Your Doctor
http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
the above is a link to calculate your BMI. Your BMI is your Body Mass Index, it takes into consideration your height and weight and gives you a score, and according to that score you can determine whether or not you are at a healthy weight.
Anyway, so i went to go see the lady doctor today and after answering a few of my questions she took a look at me and said, "how much do you weigh?" To which i answered. "blank" and she said, "and how tall are you?" "five foot two AND A HALF!" She then proceeded to tell me that i was too heavy for my height, and that i needed to lose around 20-25 pounds. I tell you, ladies and gentlemen, my heart practically dropped into my stomach. What the heck. 20-25 pounds? I've never felt that bad about my weight ever. ever. EVER. i've always regarded myself as a Mexican Marilyn Monroe.... when it came to curves anyway.... i definitely don't have the sex appeal. Or the whole Marilyn Monroe thing going on....
So, one of my goals for the semester is to lose weight, so i can be "healthy"my other goal is to get good grades and make my asian ancestors proud. This means... a lot of salad, fruits, vegetables, and the very much dreaded, EXERCISE. Yes, ladies and gentlemen. Gator will be walking, and maybe running... so .... i mean. yeah.
Boo weight gain!
Also, upon further research i found that most Drs. find the BMI chart to be obsolete because you can't tell when someone is fat or muscular... clearly, i'm the latter.

Laughing
one the most important things in life is laughter.
I've laughed so much in the past few days that my ab area hurts when i sneeze, it's the worst. You may be wondering, "Sarah, how do you know that this pain is from laughing?" To which I will answer thee, "there is no other kind of work out that my abdominals get!"
But my lack of physical activity is beside the point, everyone needs to laugh a little bit more. I agree life is a serious thing, kind of... sort of, either way everyone needs to laugh more.
I have the innate ability (induced by homeschooling) to make myself laugh. Which honestly isn't a bad quality to have, although it does get a little awkward when you're attempting to explain what it is you're laughing at and no one else understands your sense of humour.
So, this is a kind reminder telling you to laugh more, because when you're laughing everything seems a little bit better.... until reality sets in.... but then you just laugh some more and deal with it.

Back to freedom... not really.
I managed to check into my dorm today, all moved in, nothing is properly organized... as usual. So far, so good, I will admit it genuinely bugs me when everyone starts asking me how my break's been going. Why don't you just ask me some other random question (acceptable questions include the following: "How 'bout them Dodgers?" seen any good movies?" etc.)
I've decided that it will take me some time to adjust again. I don't care who you are or what you believe. Hanging out with family and hanging out with friends are separate experiences. Having come back to school after a month and a half with my family I realize that I'm going to have to get out of my shell again. My family understands me on a level that a lot of people will never know or experience, while that's fine, I realized that I have to work on reaching out to other people's see with family, one can simply walk away and come back and all is well, it isn't the same way with friends.
So, here's to a semester of working on relationships!
