it's september already!

am i the only one who can't believe its already september? this year has flown! and it's been almost a month since i have posted.. time got away from me.

anyway.. nothing special is really going on. i'm staying busy with school and work... i'm a little overwhelmed with all of the homework but i'll get used to it. college is so much different from high school. i rarely had homework in high school.. and i dreaded going. now i have tons of homework everyday.. but really it's worth it because i feel like i'm actually learning something. of course there are things you like and don't like about every class.. but so far i like all of my teachers! i have been doing really good in math actually. right now it's like stuff i already know how to do but it's good to have that refresher because i haven't ever had a good math teacher really. and i've been doing good on the homework and actually made a 100 on my first math lab! (its on the computer but counts as a quiz grade. we do it online at home and then print out the results and turn it in.) i can already tell my reading class is going to be a challenge.. but i have to pass it so i can start nursing pre-reqs. and mental health was nothing like i expected! i thought it was going to be all book work and blah blah blah. it's nothing like any other class i've been in. he lectures.. but it's actually interesting.. he's really funny. and then we always have a group project.. and then he discusses whatever we did. like yesterday we had to get into groups of five and pretend we were on the board of a counseling center and come up with a treatment plan for a teenager deciding whether to have an abortion or not. of course everyone had their own views and people were argueing (pro-life or pro-choice). but the professor said that when helping someone like that you can't let your own views get in the way. you have to have the best interest of the patient and not even think about your own bias. the whole group thing is still a little weird for me but i'm sure i'll get used to it. and another plus of that class is that we haven't had homework yet! my learning strategies class is going really good. the teacher is wonderful.. you can tell she really wants every student to do well.

other than that i can't really think of anything else.. work is the same old same old you know. so i guess that is about it. i need to go do my homework. hope everyone has a great week. peace!

i have been having this obsession with fruit flavored drinks lately.. idk why. i guess it's just a phase but for right now i can't get enough!

tropical citrus vitamin water. (energy). its addicting because it has caffiene but keeps me awake at school! it makes me pee like crazy though. the flavor isn't as washed out as the revive vitamin water.

i discovered this one at the cafe at school. snapple mango madness. it's soo good! i get one everyday during my lunch break at school.
fuze slenderize tropical punch. it only says slenderize because it only has like 20 cals i think. (which is hard to find in a fruit drink). it has a good flavor though and comes in a plastic bottle now instead of that glass one. but they are still just as big.
