anyways, yesterday SPOP 5.5 went to SAN DIEGO!!! we shot a music video to afternoon delight, ate the most amazing filipino food, and smoked hookah downtown. couldn't have been more perfect! a big thank you to paulo's parents for their hospitality. i love filipino parents. seriously. my little week and a half break is very much needed from SPOP. definitely has given me time to recuperate and center myself a little bit more if that even makes sense.
tomorrow i plan on finishing my personal statement. then i just have to confirm one letter of recommendation, enter my coursework, mail in my transcripts...AND I'M DONE WITH MY PHARMCAS APPLICATION!!!!! holyyyy shit! i just have small things to do here and there for all the supplementals but i'm just about done. and now i will just have this nervous feeling in my gut til about december/january when we start hearing about interviews. good lord i am STRESSED!!!
continue to grow. continue to love. continue to change.

pace yourself.
so i am home for the weekend in hopes of trying to gather myself, catch up on all the little things i need to get done, and just relax a little bit. there are so many things i need to do and i hate not feeling on top of my shit. i realized how much i hate not being prepared. my speech last thursday did not go too well due to my own lack of preparation. i know i'm not deathly afraid to speak in front of people but just my lack of preparation made me forget everything i was supposed to say. before i knew it my speech was over and i don't think it even reached 2 minutes. oh well. i'll just do better on the next four speeches hopefully.
SPOP has been seriously so amazing and one of the most rewarding experiences. i truly don't know what i did to deserve this. i've been blessed to staff with some of my favorite people and for that i am very thankful. seeing the fear and uncertainty in the spopper's eyes turn into joy and excitement is so rewarding. i would seriously do anything to calm their fears about coming to UCI. i've had the privilege of staffing SPOP 2: O.G. Oterror Squad and SPOP 3: The Poopstars of POO POO POOENTE and i just found out i'm staffing SPOP 4!!! :) after that i'm not staffing until SPOP 7 so i'll get a little bit of a break. staffing back-to-back is definitely draining, but so worth it and i've learned how to pace myself during SPOP so i am not as tired at the end of the day.
i really need to re-focus on my pharmacy school applications. i really want to be done with everything by the end of july. BAH. i am stressed. woo. i've got alot to do. my stomach is growling so time for breakfast. 4real. hahaha :)

i love cereal.
i have a problem.
i am addicted to cereal. are there 12-step programs to fix this? it suffices as a meal at anytime of the day. i am constantly rotating at least 5-6 boxes of cereal. fruity pebbles, honey comb, honey bunches of oats, honey nut cheerios, special K vanilla almond, gorilla munch...the list is seriously endless. this shit is so good. and i always wanted to be that kid on the life cereal box but i think its too late for that.
amazing.

back to blogging.
i really missed blogging and having a way to just let out whatever is going on up there. i read my high school livejournal awhile ago and realized how stupid i sounded getting stressed over meaningless things but to see how much i've grown is crazy.
i really wanted to start a blog this summer to hold on to the memories and new experiences to be had. summer has only begun and i just know its going to be a summer i'll never forget. i've met people who i'm constantly smiling and laughing with and that's enough to keep me going with the longest, most dreadful public speaking course i am taking at IVC and the intensity of applying for pharmacy school. waahh! my goal for this summer is really to have the time of my life while still staying focused on my goals and the life i must return to after SPOP.
but as for now, i absolutely cannot wait for this weekend. SPOP 2 is so the new SPOP 1!! :)
