I noticed that I failed to mention that I am 1 out of 4 members of 'The Crew.' I am pretty much with them all damn night, every night. I don't think I've every been with anyone who has made me laugh so hard (except for Ashley, R.I.P- I'll get to her eventually). Either way, the other three folks have been the 'friends' I hang out with pretty much every summer night ever since Summer 1 finished. And I may say that it's been fantaaastic! It hasn't been long and we've already accumulated so many stories and adventures, we may damn well write a book about them all someday! They're such great individuals :)
Goodness, it's going to be 3 a.m. central time. I gotta get up for a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning!! agggh!!

N!
Greetings and Salutations! I'm the 'N' in this blog and I'm TOTALLY new to this. I've actually been aching to have a blog for the longest time, just never got around to creating one of my own- factors contributing to this is laziness and lack of time... but for the most part, laziness. haha! So my future roommate came up with this great idea to create a 'team blog' and talk about our crazy lives. My opinion: we live crazy lives apart, one can only imagine when we move in together!! As my first post, I'd like to discuss a little about myself as E did in the previous post. Enjoy learning! :)
1. I talk a lot. And write a lot as well.
2. My favorite colors are orange, yellow, and lime green. I'm building a strong liking to pink for some reason- and if you had known me in my earlier years, I HATED that color.
3. I'm a native speaker of the Spanish language, but am no longer fluent due to the high demand of the English language by Elementary schools... and because I, along with my fellow Spanish-speaking classmates, was getting bullied by the other kids. Just because our parents taught us Spanish first doesn't mean we carry around our 'green cards' everywhere. I was born in the United States. Besides, being bilingual just means that I'm cooler. :) ... back on topic, I have hopes of getting that native tongue back.
4. Technically I'm a Business major looking into adding Sociology as a second major and Spanish as a minor. But my path to obtaining both degrees is still cloudy because I spent a year at UT taking stupid classes and trying to figure out exactly what I wanted to do with my life. Now that I've pretty much got it figured out, I feel like all that was just wasted time.
5. My most ultimate best friend is my mother. She has to be the strongest woman I know. Funny thing is, she considers ME her hero. We have a very close bond. I can tell her anything and everything.
6. My sisters are a HUUUUUGE part of why I have yet to give up on life. Even though sometimes it just gets a little too crazy. haha. I love them to death. And I totally know they love me the same way.
7. My dad is something else. As strict as he was on me while I was growing up, I'm happy to say that I am where I am partially because of him. He is my guide for living on my own. When I'm getting myself into something pertaining to adulthood, Dad knows all the right questions to ask. I, on the other hand, will take it if it looks pretty- which brings me to my next point...
8. It's really easy to sell me something. Buuuuut my dad is there to tell me no and why.
9. I have music from all types of genres. But don't ask me about anything that's new because I've been slacking :(
10. Now, I don't get close to girls (or anyone) this easily, but MY GOODNESS has my friendship with Elaine grown! Her optimism brings such a light to my eyes that I've notice it rub off on me quite a bit. hehe :) I love her!! I can't wait to live with this young lady.
11. I love to dance. End of freakin' story.
12. I am forever poor but I still manage to spend money recklessly. :/
13. Absolute favorite movies: Heathers, Garden State, Chicago, and The Departed.
14. "Heavy" by Tegan and Sara; and "Don't Panic" by Coldplay are my favorite songs of all time. Listen to them... noooow!! :P
15. You may find me ranting about something. It's not my fault I just want to fix the world.
16. Food. What can I say? I love to eat. But I hate that I love to eat because now I feel like a whale. I'm working on it though.
17. If you hear me saying that I got lost trying to get somewhere... it's nothing new. I'm ALWAYS getting lost when I'm going somewhere new. Good thing is, after finally finding the place, I begin to know how to get there like the back of my hand.
18. I finally feel like I belong somewhere. And I'm not kidding when I say I've come a long way.
19. I'm not entirely religious, but I do feel as if I have a healthy relationship with God. I know it can be better, but He knows I'm getting around to it. :)
20. Moving to Austin, Texas is probably one of the smartest decisions I've ever made in my life- despite my way of flirting with poverty.
21. I love Starbucks. One of the reasons as to why I'm always poor.
22. I talk about being poor a lot... because it's the damn truth! haha.
23. Talking about feelings isn't really my thing. But maybe I'll be able to someday.
24. Grey's Anatomy + Desperate Housewives + Law and Order: SVU + Law and Order = loooooove!!!
25. My boyfriend and I have such a healthy relationship, it's cuuute! I am very thankful for having in my life. He's sort of opened up my eyes to a couple of things and although we have our moments, we make up REAL quick. (get your mind out of the gutter). We've been dating since September and were officially made a couple in February- I have enjoyed every minute of it. All in all, I love him. <3>
26. As nervous as I am for the future, I'm quite hopeful. :)

hello
