Fun Filled Life: January 2009

I have not posted much on hear for a long while, so i have decided to post something.

My finals went well and my grades turned out okay. I am going to retake my biology class over the summer at PPCC because i feel i could have done much better then I actually did. Other then that, my GPA is still okay, and I hope to maintain it throughout the next semester.

I signed up for next semester classes and I am going to enjoy them all, especially the choir, but I did realize recently i will be away from my dorm from 8am to about 7pm Monday through Thursday, so i think i am going to be extremely stressed, and don't know if i am going to be able to keep it like that as my school work i believe will suffer, but i still need to think about that.

I have also been looking into going overseas for a semester next year, and am in the process of trying to figure out what i am going to do with that and where I am going to go. I have decided on England, but now i need to figure out which college is best for me academically. I am very excited and ready to experience some time in another country.

I arrived back to the Springs on the 18th of December and leave the 17th of January and have enjoyed the time here.

I have enjoyed being with my mum and enjoying the time away from school, although i do miss some of the people i have met at CSU. I have only talked to Nathan since arriving back to the springs, and he also lives in the springs, so it doesn't really count, but i don't mind not talking to anyone because we see each other daily and live together, so this is a time away. I volunteered at Seven Falls on the 27th of December and that was an experience as there were too many people and it was freezing cold, but after we got people organized and it calmed down, it went smoothly and we all enjoyed ourselves. We probably won't be doing it next year, but we will see when we get the letter asking for our help again what we decide.

I went out with some of my cousins that are in Colorado Springs on New Years, we went out to Applebee's and then headed down to Manitou and that was a fun experience! It was great being with my aunt and my cousins and their kids! We don't get together often anymore, so it is nice when we can get together.

I had surgery on my eye on the 7th of January, so that has been an experience. My eye was absolutely horrible for about a week, and has become better and isn't so bad anymore, although there is still lots of blood and stuff in it which isn't a pleasant sight, but it will go away soon, and I can actually see now which is exciting.

I got braces on again today (Jan. 13th) and they are only on the top, and I should only have them on for about 4 to 5 months so that is exciting although, they do not really bother me. I will be getting an implant for one of my teeth later this summer.

I am ready for class to start although I have signed up for too much, and have already realized i will be stressed out. I am already stressing and I have not even started classes yet. It is just so much that i have to do, and not enough time in the day to actually get the homework and studying done! I will also have to work in some time, (probably at like midnight!) to work with nathan on music.... as he wants me to learn to read music, as i am in choir, although i am better at listening to the notes and that stuff, but he really wants me to, so we are going to have some study sessions.

Well, I am going to go for now, but I will be back soon. I am going to write a blog about my first week of school and all of the craziness so be prepared for that!

Nathan has agreed to take part in another photo session once the first snow fall hits for the 2009 year in Fort Collins. It will be roughly the same thing that happened when I took the photo shot for the fall. I cannot wait to do that, because I love taking photos, and Nathan isn't afraid to do anything and he is really corporative! I have had a few offers on some of the photos i took from the fall, so that has been really exciting, even though I find it quite interesting that they actually want photos with a kid in it that the do not even even know, but whatever.... I have answered a few of them, and am working with a few of them with a copyright offer so we will see where that goes!
