So, I finally have all my grades, that's good. I have as general grade 9.2 which is pretty good because the highest grade is 10.

Now, with this I can get a good scholarship and I can be considered to take the Double Plan, which pretty much means I get to study two years outside Mexico.

Where? Well, or my major that would be New Mexico. Albuquerque to be precise.


I'm...not really sure how I feel about that.


I mean, I have nothing against Albuquerque, or New Mexico for that matter. Hell, I don't even know the place.

I think I'm worried about the weather, and hell, that's a stupid thing to worry about...But Still.

Meh...Who cares? If it's for my career I'll do it. Hopefully I'll like the place.

Just finished my first semester in University.

It was amazing. I managed to adapt pretty fast, I learned a lot and I noticed that I really don't give a damn about what other students think about me.
I had class with a really really HOT guy two times a week and I also saw it during Tennis, it was great.

Bought hamsters, a lot of books, cd's and movies. I stayed away of my sister 5 days a week or more.
I manage to loose weight and start a healty life.


And, the best thing of all?

I've just finished my final project of one of my classes. Four days of barely eating and sleeping and it's finally over.

I feel good

I'm positively sure I've just sprained my wrist.

Not that I complain, mind you, it happened during a very fun activity.

Breaking a piñata.

It's been at least five years since the last time I broke one. I happened to miss it a damn lot, so now that I had the opportunity I kicked ass.

The first piñata? I couldn't broke it, but my turn was wild. I beat the crap out of the piñata and then when they were trying to get it away of me I catched the cord and managed to hang of it, just by one hand, while I was beating the piñata with the other.

The second piñata? A guy broke it with a single punch, it was awsome. Also I ran as fast as I could, tossed myself to the ground, wrestled with a guy and then stole almost all the candy.

The third piñata? We broke the stick before the piñata, but then a girl and I started beating the thing at the same time, two sticks are better than one...Yet it was being hard to broke, So I loose my patience and used the other side of my stick (Now a spear) and stabbed the piñata to dead. I stabbed it and then gutted it...
Again, it was awsome. (But I think I sprained my wrist)

The fourth piñata? Three guys started to beat it with three short sticks. It took time, but at the end of it they broke it. Not as awsome, but again I wrestled for candy.

I love piñatas

My University prides itself saying that there's a lot of foreign students around, not only from America but from around the world.
This is basically true, I've seem people from all around the world in this place, walking, talking and having fun.
I love this, it makes me feel part of something much more bigger.

So, when I heard that today is Thanksgiving day (Because, you know, we don't celebrate that in Mexico) I thought immediately of the foreign students that celebrate it. What would it be to miss an important celebration just because you are in a different country.

Well, when I went to the cafeteria to buy my meal I got a nice surprise; The whole menu was specially created for Thanksgiving, so the foreign students would feel more at home.

I thought it was a particularly nice detail. Now I like my college a bit more.
Look Man, I'm sorry but we can't take it anymore.

We (The group) finished our papers, our investigations, everything is ready and we are just cleaning stuff, you know, checking grammar and such.

Why in hell did you decided that his was a good time to tell us what the work must include and how we should write it.

You are supposed to give us that kind of things BEFORE we even start working in the paper.

It's like asking us to bake a cake, wait for when we are adding the frosting and then give us the recipe.

It's not cool man.

Now we all have to write the damn thing again, in less than a week.

Thank you very much

Whoever shaved her armpits (I pray that I'm correct in that supposition) PLEASE CLEAN YOUR MESS.

It's not funny to try to clean your face and find a bunch of SHAVED HAIR!! In the fucking sink and all around it!

It's fucking disgusting.
Look sir, I know you are busy and all the stuff, you've told me already and I understand.

But I've send my paper to you at least three times now, and every time you promise to give it a read and tell me what is wrong (Because for god sake, there's always something wrong isn't it?)

Well, just do it!

Really man, again I know you are busy, but I really need to start another investigation report and I just can't do it because I need to know the first one is good and finished. I mean, I know it's finished, there's barely a thing I can add, but please pretty please, just take your time, give it a quick read, tell me how can I make the damn antithesis coherent with the rest of the text and it's over.

I'll stop pestering you and I'll be able to have my grades on time.



Also, for my "team mate" that just keeps disappearing.

Fuck you man. I'll do the job and I'll put my fucking name on it, and to hell with you. I won't give you credit for a work you didn't do.

Somehow I got this weird idea in my mind, that all the stuff that we've been doing during the semester, like investigations and such for a final work weren't going to be checked...or considered at all.

Obviously I was wrong

XD

Now I'm fucking loaded with work
Today I learned something new that will help me trough my life, that I'm sure.

I've been working on a final essay for a while now, I picked a theme related to what I'm studying (It is called subject or what? I'm still not sure about that one. Any help?).

Anyway, I picked what pretty much can be summed as "Negative influence of the beauty ideal over Mexican teenagers"
Researching, writing and reflexing about the whole damn thing I've got to the conclusion that the whole idea is so far fetched that it's just stupid to worry about it.

Sure, taking care of what you eat and working out is good, whatever the reason that lead you to do it in first place, but lately I've felt much more comfortable about my body, and that's pretty much amazing.

I mean, I came to terms with my height long time ago. I stopped growing (Upwards at least) during highschool, leaving me with the grand height of 5'04ft, so really, it's not a problem (at least in Mexico) and it's actually quite practical.

Weight issues though, those are a whole different thing. Anyway, thanks to this essay I've been learning so much about body image and acceptance and really I can say right now that I feel comfortable with the way I look. Yes I want to be in better shape and condition, but mainly because I want to be able to run without loosing my breath, although technically I think that's because of my sinusitis.

The little baby hamster? It died.
Somehow it went missing and I found it today under everything Toni could found. Obviously Toni didn't wanted to it it, but she suffocated it.

With objects.

Though interesting and slightly disturbing, I find that just...well, cruel.



In other news, today in my Italian Class, Jack the Reaper ended up as Jack the Stripper, I don't know why.


Also, I've been watching the first two episodes of Metalocalypse third season and I'm not convinced about the new screamo style they are setting.
The humor though, is as good as ever, perhaps even better.

Well, I bought two hamsters a while ago, well, y roomie and I bought a couple of hamsters a while ago.

We named them Tony and Stephen. However...Apparently Stephen was a he, so he is now named Steve.

However, we leaved this weekend and Surprise! Tony had little hamsters. Therefore, she is Toni.

But Steve is missing...

I'm still confused.
Today my roomie asked me how you loose weight from hips and legs.
I stared at her for a while before saying: You can't. Then I explained her that yes, she could loose weight from her hips but a little, because it's more bone structure than anything.
Then she said that no, that she is getting fatter from her legs and hips while getting thiner from her stomach.
Then I explained her than no, she wasn't gaining weight, that she was gaining muscle because she has been running to loose weight.
Then she looked all sad because she wasn't going to be thin as a stick, 'cause she was gaining muscle.
Then I got up and leaved, because I hate that kind of discussions.
I have to do, in the course of a week, three things that I'm embarrassed of.

The problem is that I'm such an outgoing person that it's hard for me to think about one...

But, after a couple of minutes thinking...I think I have them.

-Wear a Dress without leggings or something to cover myself.
-I'll go to the damn sexshop (Yes, I haven't been there...yet)
-Probably go and flirt with the guy I like ('Cause god knows I can flirt with anyone I'm not attracted to)

So, Hairspray was the play they chose this year for the theater group. Who are they? The guys at my college of course.

Anyway, I watched the play today. Full theater, that is a new record. I've always liked Edna, and I've always enjoyed the fact that she is played by a man. This time though, it was a little weird because this time the guy is part of my group, so it was weird to see him dressed as a woman.

Other than that, I really enjoyed it. Also, I think I had never really felt any kind of love with Edna and Wilbur in other versions of the play. This time however, it was amazingly easy for those two to get an "Awww" from the public.

I really don't know what to think about it.

I did enjoyed it though...
The damned thing is not working.
I have checked everything, everything, it isn't working, just...no.

Okay, yes, the thing was around 20 dolars, not really top class I know, but still It has to work when I want it to.

...Luckily for me, my college has this pretty nice coffee shop. 100% Mexican coffee.

Yumm

Not broken, thanks god. Just a little swollen. In other news, important ones. I took a photo of an ugly spider today, wich is quite an achievement, because I'm scared shitless of those things. It's a good picture, and I got close enough for it to jump and eat me (Wich didn't happened) Actually I think it's funny, because I was shivering, sweating and almost crying while trying to take the picture, but whatever, I did it.

Or at least it is sprained.

Whatever it is, it jurst  hurts. A lot.

EDIT: Jurst? Jurst?  JURST?  Okay, that's pain for you.
We talk about everything, except photography.

Well no, we do try to talk about photography, but we say stupid things in the process (I blame my teacher)




Situation: Analyzing a Picture I took a year ago.

Teacher: Well, this is a good one. I like the colors, however it is a little blurred.
Me: Hey! I took this a year ago! (While trying to explain that back then I knew nothing about photography)
Teacher: So what, the pixels blurred with time?

Situation: Five minutes after discussing the effects time has over pixels. This time, analyzing a picture from another student.

Teacher:
Oh, good...are this pictures recent?
Student: Most of them, but this one, I took it last year.
Me: Oh my god! The Pixels aren't blurred, how did you did that?!



I love those classes, seriously.

There's one thing that truly makes me happy in this world.
The ONE thing that will make me so giddy you'll think I wont the lotery.

READING.

Reading is the world for me, really, it is, and I'm always searching for a million different books, the problem though, is that a good part of those books are old books, so I can't find them in a store.
I search for them, and wait weeks and weeks and nothing, I just can't find them. But today I had an Idea! I told to myself

"Alejandra, you are in a college with a three stories library, I'm sure you can find it there"

Well, I did. Not only that, but I started searching all those books I've always wanted to read and voilá, those books are there.
ALL THE BOOKS I EVER WANTED TO READ RIGHT AT MY REACH. I swear I've never feel so excited about something.

God I love my college.

THIS is the book.
