Ok... so this post will be in english. As the semester draws to a close I have decided to make a list of things that happened to help describe my first semester at college: 1. Experienced my first relationship in college. 2. Experienced my first heartbreak in college. 3. Learned how to use a dryer. 4. Learned how much I appreciate my parents... and their cooking. 5. Met some really cool people who are like me. 6. Realized that high school did not prepare me for the rigors of college. 7. Realized how much I appreciate my relationships with people and how to make them more meaningful. 8. Learned how to sit for hours studying. 9. Experienced and survived (!) the horrors of chemistry. 10. Realized humility is your friend. 11. Really missed good Mexican food. 12. Really missed a few true blue friends from home. 13. Grew up. |

Well, I was hoping that college relationships would be something more meaningful and mature than those in high school. What I discovered was that I put myself in wholeheartedly and place my spirit where it isn't wanted. I have learned a lot about myself and where I stand, but I constantly choose people who aren't ready to love me or to work for something that I am willing to spend my time on. It's all right though, because there is always time and new people to learn. As my father always says, "Don't let your highs get too high and your lows get too low." I am still settling in my new environment, dealing with the pressures that this university dishes out, as well as trying to find myself in a sea of people. I wish luck to all those doing the same. |

Pourquoi avez-vous décidé de déchirer mon coeur dans deux ? Est-ce que je n'étais pas assez bon pour vous ? Est-ce que je ne suis pas assez beau, assez futé, assez intelligent, assez amusement, assez bonbon ? Queest-ce que plus ont pu je faire pour vous ? Est-ce que j'ai dit quelque chose de faux ou quelque chose à vous que vous avez détesté ? Pourquoi est-ce que je veux courir à vous et faites-me tenir à vous dans des vos bras quoique vous vous inquiétiez tellement peu ? Quel est le problème avec moi? Est-ce mon problème ou est-il à vous ? |

If my kisses leave imprints on your soul, let those imprints be ruboffs of the message I want to convey to you. If my touch bends you, let it *craft* you into that beauty which you possess in my mind. Let us be steadfast in our journey, and let it draw us a picture that lingers there in the silence; a language without words and a message to last throughout the passage of time. |

It's been awhile since I've updated so I thought I'd write something down. School is pretty cool; I love the energy and spirit of the campus. Midterms aren't so fun however, and they continue to loom in front of me. I'm organizing a community service chain to the Women In Science and Engineering Program that I'm in. I'm excited because it means I can continue with these sort of activities that I thought I'd miss. I'm setting up a toy/supply drive for the Oakland Children's Hospital, the girls are really interested. On the home front things are all right, my father's surgery went well and he's now in physical therapy. My grandmother has cancer in her stomach in addition to her kidneys. They are unsure whether to treat it with her old medication because it could be the metastasized cancer or a new strain. I'm a little unsure as to how deal with knowing that she is slowly dying and not being able to do anything about it. I wish I was there to spend these days with her, but I need to be here as well. It's a battle that I don't think will ever be resolved, but I know it helps that I support and love her. Well this was a bit depressing, sorry for that. I hope everyone is doing well and they are enjoying school. If you guys are ever up in the Berkeley/San Francisco region let me know. Take care... |

I think I'll pick up the piano again. I'm looking for a way to express myself and I think that's a good fit. |

today was the first day of classes and i'm satisfied with what i'm taking. chem 1a will be the toughest just because i have to review everything that i forgot from sophomore year. antrho will be fun, i love archaeology. i'm taking this geology course that allows you to go on a field trip to yosemite and the sierra nevada region and look at the sites and the glacier run, so that will be exciting. plus.... the class on meets 6 times with no final! i'm also planning on taking a discussion course entitled "simpsons and philosophy" and i get two units. that is the way to take only one difficult class and get 16 units my friends... COME VISIT ME! |

Well I am here at Cal, and it is really great! There are so many things to do, people to meet, I'm having a wonderful time. I just can't imagine what it will be like when classes actually start, but I'm having fun now. I know everyone will have an awesome time at their school too. If anyone is ever in Berkeley, drop me a line! |

it is interesting to see the end of the year surround us. relationships change faster than we would like. i wish everyone luck in their futures and i hope we have the ability to sit back and enjoy this exciting if not a little frightening, time. |

Well it seems that live journal will be the demise of us all. Be careful what you write if you don't want others to read it. On another note, Graduation Announcements take a really long time to make out. I hope I will finish them before I actually graduate. |
