A Review: September 2018

In September I got used to college, but not enough to not go home.

I'm Back!
For Labor Day I went back home, yay! I even went back to work because my brother was feeling sick. It was so nice to even be at the pool and see familiar faces again.

Actually , my last day that year.

Birthday
For one of my friends' birthdays I created a piece of art featuring her favorite things.

Pool
One day during a trip to Target I saw an inflatable pool on sale. I figure we should have a pool in our room! So, we take it back inflate it and add water! it only stayed for a week though, it was taking up room and creating humidity. It was cool to say I had a pool in my room.

Freshman Camping Trip
In September I attended the Freshman Camping Trip with CRU. I really enjoyed the chill in the air and how quiet it was. The stars were also pretty. I talked with a lot of people too. Overall, it was fun.

This is my face most of the time.

Hiking
With the Catholic club I participated in a mini retreat where the freshmen got to know each other with fun events like sofa racing and milkshakes. That was all fun, but the next day was a hike! I did not enjoy it. I was out of breath which was weird because I do fine on hikes at home. There was also a lot of uphill and I was just exhausted with it. I do not like hiking. However there were nuns and they talked to me, so that was fun.

Surprise!
After hearing I should surprise my family by coming home unexpectedly, I did! I took a bus and traveled all the way home! I was pretty proud of myself! I didn't really do much except hang out. My family was happy to see me!

Parking Day
Once again in another post I go over Parking Day where my group and I turned a parking spot into a interactive piece of art. That was a busy day though. I went from class to class! I really wanted to play kickball with the nuns that day, but I couldn't because of my schedule.

What I Have Learned in College
A lot of September is in my "What I Have learned in College" post including don't go to Wal-Mart after 10.

September was a very quick month and included lots of new experiences.

God Bless!

20 Activities for 20 year Olds

Good Morning Family and Friends! Recently I have been incredibly bored, hopefully my online classes will entertain me more. I have previously stated that I wasn’t practicing social distancing or whatever, however my mom has been making me stay inside more often and now Colorado is on lockdown. I looked up activities for 20 year olds and didn’t find anything, I guess people make these lists for stay at home moms with young children. So, I decided to make my own list for you, the audience, if you’re bored (which if you’re reading this you probably are) and looking for something to do. Read Woah, how original...read. I don’t read for pleasure often. In the summer I read The Great Gatsby and I usually read one of Father Greg Boyle’s books some other time in the year. I also read my Vogue magazines. Two books and a magazine isn’t that much. However, since there is more time to do stuff, I figured I could read more. My brother gave me The Princess Bride to read, I’ve read a lit...

The Best Experience of my Young Life: Casa Bonita

I read an article by Westword that read if Disneyland and Tijuana had a baby and left it to fend for itself in a strip mall on Colfax, it’d be Casa Bonita. I finally got to experience this gem with some of my friends, Nai and Hannah, who have also been eager to try the restaurant out. We pulled into the packed parking lot of Casa Bonita that stood in the same shopping complex as two dollar stores and a kids dental office next door. People surrounded the outside as the fountain splashed and I took photos as rapidly as a mom on Christmas morning. This was it, the best of themed dining experiences. We entered into a very confusing entryway and found the line, but first we stopped by the bathroom, which happened to be very nice. We stood in the red velvet roped line with other epicures, such as ourselves, waiting to order at the register. The line was dark, but illuminated by Corona neons, a sign with the words “Easto Much, Peso Little”, a vi...

Things I've Found on the Ground

Family and friends, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! It has been a while since I've published a blog post, but after audience interest in the rekindling of the blog here I am at the 11th hour to ensure a numerical year doesn't go by without a post. I guess I've been gone because I've been busy or less inspired…I don't know. Anyways, for the past two years (and some months) I’ve taken pictures of things I find on the ground, some of them are amusing, so I’ve decided to share some and write little stories for each. So, please enjoy a small collection of photos and commentary of things I’ve found on the ground. Making Love in a Hopeless Place Where: Walmart Parking Lot When: December What: An Open Condom Wrapper Can anyone imagine a more romantic place to cement your love than a Walmart parking lot. I surely can't. Forget fireworks you have the rustle of your grocery bags in the back seat. Meanwhile the cold midnight air wafts in through your cracked windows a...
