Busy busy busy

I'm so glad i can sit down for a minute and catch my breath as i'm writing. Today has been a crazy day for me... I've basically been everywhere!! Classes weren't so bad but i had to go home today for a dentist appointment. Home is an hour away so while its not so bad.. it still sucks being in the car that long :/ lol. i get restless...
So i got home, ate with my parents :D (it was really good) and then i had to drive to see my orthodontist.. It really feels like I've been stuck in a car all day, i guess cause i had to go everywhere hehe..
Then... yes, another hour of driving back to come back to Meredith :X
I'm exhausted and my friend dragged me to the volleyball game against Methodist. Well, it turned out to be a lot of fun!!! The girls were playing good. Now i'm here in my room and i wish i could crash in my bed but i gotta do lots of h.w :( not cool. Guess i have to start working on it....

awesome day :)

So... today was a great day for the most part :)
I had classes as usual and that was ok, except for calculus (i was falling asleep haha). I also went to the half the sky walk! it turned out to be very nice.. I'm glad we had a little gesture to support the book.
And i took my first Biology test :O lol... i'm so happy i got over it, it really wasn't that bad so i hope i did well on it :)
Goodness i did a lot of things today.
well the best parts of my day that i got to hang out with my Big Sis and my other "twins" haha. My Big Sis, Elizabeth Warren invited us to go out to dinner and it turned out to be so much fun! We decided to eat at Noodles and company located in Cameron Village. The place was really cute and you can get a delicious meal very cheap!!! Def go if you have a chance, plus they have really cute to go boxes :)

My 3rd place :D

Well I have never heard of this term before we used it in class lol. It was kind of interesting to find out that there was an actual term that refers to something other than home and work, or in this case school. So there i was... thinking about choosing my third place. It finally hit me: A book store! I love reading, and bookstores are a great place to relax and interact with others at the  same time.
And ta daa!! i found my perfect place :)

I went there today, let me tell you its such a nice and cute bookstore.. feels very homey. It was just a tiny bit small, well as compared to my usual Barnes and Noble, but its definitely worth being there. Did i mention its like right across from Meredith?? Very convenient :D
Anybody can go there and spend time relaxing and enjoying a good book or have a talk with someone there. 
The store is locally owned by Nancy Olson and has been around for 25 years since it first opened in 1984!! wow :)
I know I enjoy very much reading and just hanging out somewhere nice. If you're the type of person that will one day want to check out this chill place i really recommend it. The place is nice and the staff is helpful, so make sure you stop by one day. I know I'll be getting my comic books from here... yay!

Slepppp: zzzzz

Oh sleep... yes i love it! I love sleeping and i wish i could get more of it :(
Actually, after seeing this interesting video about the importance of sleeping I'm definitely going to get more sleep at night. Usually I'm one of those persons that likes to get everything done, so even if I'm not done with my h.w and its 1:00 o'clock already I'll still stay awake just to finish whatever i have to do. I know... that's really bad. Lately I've been a little sleep deprived since i go to sleep late and wake up early :[
Thank You FYE!!!! I just needed someone to tell me how important sleep was.
The studies done in this video were kind of amazing, and the results were shocking. I mean, i would have never known that sleep deprivation could be so harmful, even to the point of putting you in track for various diseases such as obesity and diabetes.. now that's crazy.
I also liked learning that not getting enough sleep actually makes you become hungry even if you are truly not hungry... yeah, sleep deprivation messes up many things in your body and mind.
All i have to say after this video is that i definitely need to get to bed earlier and make sure i get those precious 7-8 hours of sleep :) Oh how I'm looking forward to them hehe :D
