Another week comes...the second week of the spring semester. After last semester, I finally got out of my senioritis from high school. It took me too long. I shouldn't have gone to school last semester. I should have just worked and started this semester. I only have 11 hours. By the end of this semester and I pass all my classes, I'll have only 24 hours, so I'll still be classified as a freshman. But, I already signed up to take classes in the summer at Austin Community College, so I'll have 30 hours. Originally, I had planned to just take classes in the summer so I could graduate earlier, but this year that's not the case. Well, I said it before and I'll say it again: I learned my lesson.

Lately, I've been thinking about transfering to a different school. I wanted to transfer to UT, but if my sister and her jerk of a boyfriend are going to be going there too, then I don't want to go to UT anymore. Now I'm thinking about transfering to University College London. That's on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Good old London, England. I've always wanted to go to England. Since I was 12 really. I was told I was a wannabe white girl because I wanted to go so much. But can you blame me? London seems to be a wonderful city to be in. And to study in London seems to be like an even greater adventure than just living there. If I don't transfer there completely, I'll probably go to just study for a semester or a year or something. But I really would like to study abroad. I wanted to study abroad when I was in high school, but the parents never let me go. When I have kids, I'm going to let them go if they want to. I have been deprived all my life of learning about different ways of life it makes me sick. That's probably why I want to double major in Anthropology and Geography. I also want to study in Spain, France, Japan, and in Mexico. Mexico may not be so far fetched I guess. If I go to Mexico, I'll probably go to the university in Queretaro where my relatives live, that way I don't have to spend money on a place to stay. Plus, I'll get to actually know my relatives. More than likely, I would stay at my Tia Chela's place, since she has more space. That would be fun.

My roommate got a pet fish. She named it Samson. My kitty's name is Sammy, which came from Samson. Weird. Anyway, I was thinking about getting a pet hamster. I love hamsters, especially when you take it out and put it in one of those rolly balls so they move around the house and the cats chase them around. It's so cute! Of course, you have to watch to make sure the cats don't eat your hamster if the ball acidentally comes open. When I get my job this summer, that's the first thing I'm going to invest in, besides buying shares in the stock market. Then I'll have one cat, a fish, and a hamster. I just love having animals around the house. I should just live in the forest or something since I love animals so much. I don't like dogs that much though. Some dogs I do, like Shar-peis, but most I can't stand. Oh well.

Everyone in my family but me got sick this past weekend. Oh no! Well, my sister and brother were sick for like two days, but my mom has bronchitis. Yikes! That really sucks. If she's still sick by Friday, I probably won't go home because I don't want to catch a fever and then pass it on to my roommate, ect. When I had a cold last fall, my former roommate caught it right when she moved into a different room.

I'm still thinking about you know who. Damn, I wish I could just stop thinking about him, but I can't! His image won't leave me alone! "I'm gonna wash that man right out of my hair." I wonder if he ever thinks about me. It's like the lyrics to Hello by Lionel Richie:

I long to see the sunlight in your hair.
And tell you time and time again how much I care.
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow.
Hello, I've just got to let you know.

'Cause I wonder where you are.
And I wonder what you do.
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue.
But let me start by saying, I love you ...

Hopefully, my infatuation with him will be over soon. Can I still call it an infatuation after two and a half years? Whatever. I hope it ends soon if it has to.

(Oh yeah, congrats to Moulin Rouge and my favorite actress Nicole Kidman for scoring some Golden Globes. I'm still mad Ewan didn't get an award, and that they didn't get an award for best orginal song, but 3 Globes is better than none.)
