I'm Turning a New Leaf!

Hello!

Now I can truly say, long time no see my brothers and sisters in the Internet world (that sounded SO geeky right? Woo!!) I can honestly and with confidence say that I am a full adult. I am working hard, with several things in my head that turn into post it notes reminders and I'm going to grad school!! Yep, you read right! Grad school. I REALLY hope this doesn't turn into a nightmare. It will be fine. I have been learning about faith this past month and with all the things that had happened to me, I learned that time will tell things, that God is in control of everything and that faith moves mountains. So, we must have faith! Even when our minds black out and don't really believe it, we certainly must have faith that we will achieve our goals. Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters in the Internet world, have faith as I am trying to. Change your vocab from "I hope this doesn't turn into a nightmare" to "Faith moves mountains!" Because its true :)

Summer... Now what??

Hi y'all!! Long time no hear from me huh? Well, nothing much has happened. Doing paperwork for my next and last university, FAU; looking for a summer job and pretty much nothing else. It's sad, I know (believe me, I know) and I'm almost losing my mind in the house all day. Just like that guy in "The Other Guys" said: "I'm a peacock! You gotta let me fly!" LOL watch that movie if you haven't already. Anyhow, I haven't done a cake and I'm literally going insane. But I got to spend my money wisely because in August I'm going to have a WHOLE NEW APARTMENT AND ITS GONNA BE MINE!!! WOOOOO!!! Yeah buddy!!! "I try to find a word to describe myself, without being disrespectFFFUUUULLLL YAY FRED!" Lol.. I like that Fred episode... Moving on! So I'll need everything and I mean everything. Cooking stuff, room stuff, living room stuff... and I have to pay for that myself. Go figure. Being an adult in grad school its hard. :/ OK! I'm done. I'll try to bake something delicious (I already have some yummy recipes in mind) and I'll post a picture! Until then my darlings!

I like him, he's dumb lol

Oh! and the link to one of my favorite episodes :)

... I'm done O.O

Wow. Two years of the University of Florida are over. It was crazy at times and mellow at others, but I am finally done. Hello stress free and fun with books and baking summer!!! WOOO!!!!

You know what?? This deserves more pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is me inside after UF.

This is how I look to others LOL

I wanna thank this guy for all his love & patience. I LOVE YOU!!!

This is Jesus in case you didn't notice LOL

 maybe you are like this little guy too!! Bye for this week!!!

In the storm.. There is Peace

Hello, remember how I mentioned that this week would be a bit harsh because I would have many things due at the same time? Well, I added another one to the list and now I have one thing due for every class. How can you do such a terrible thing? You ask. Well, for me this means that I will have less work to worry about next week, where I have three exams and a final project to worry about. The more I can distribute in these two crazy weeks the better. Besides, I already finished one of my projects, two of them are almost done and the last one is relatively easy. Tho most amazing part of this journey was the ability to go around my day without turning to drugs, or any other kind of harming "help" in order to finish all my projects. To those who need those in order to finish everything they have due in the end of the semester: I'm doing it and the need to go that route is nonexistent. My secret? Jesus. Why can't you? :) Have an amazing week everyone!

As stress builds, end Comes Near!

Hi!! I was supposed to post something yesterday; however, I was not able to because I forgot. By the time I remembered it was too late and I was tired. Therefore I am doing that today! Stress is slowly building up because many things are due next week and I am being a bit lazy. Fortunately, things are changing and I am being more committed because I can clearly see the light at the end of the tunnel. Graduation!

Planning the Semester!

Since there is a very small amount of time before the semester is over, I decided to plan EVERYTHING that I need to do. Not only that, but since I'll have something due every Friday until May I wanted to plan with time on my side. I am excited to see how things plan out and sincerely hope I can push myself enough in order to do this. FIGHTING! LOL!

LATE!

Just as the title above says, I'm very sorry I'm late this week. Nothing much is in the horizon, just finishing my studies in order to graduate and continue to grad school. I took the day off today, but will continue studying and giving my best tomorrow! I also would need to work on my recipes to sell on the summer, get a summer job, and continue with grad school arrangements. But for now, have a nice end of the week!

Full Throttle

At the moment, there is the time where classes want to continue at their pace by giving us midterms after Spring Break. It is AGONY, especially when our minds are a bit burned from so much sun and rest. Now only that, but I started having several plans for after graduation and I really want to put them in practice, but I cannot because I have got to study. Great. Thank God I actually LIKE what I study for. I am trying to find something to keep me sane during this time, but even baking has its amount of stress. Let's just say I will be doing a lot of baking for the summer and I have to do a business plan! See? Well, we'll see how the future turns out. Until then, read and enjoy!

Spring Break Study!

Spring Break is Here! I already made a pastry called quesitos and home-made brownies.. they were delicious. But the highlight of this week will be a cheesecake :) I will post a picture, don't worry lol For now, I'm studying with my boyfriend and enjoying my time before I got to stress out until graduation.

School, Essays and Big Homeworks arounds Spring Break

Spring Break is around the corner and the next post WILL be about Spring Break. Right now, there is work to be done and completed. I am really trying to be more animated, but it's a little hard right now. I know that everything I do will be worth it in the end. Graduation is right around the corner!

Acceptation Issues

Well readers, I didn't get accepted in UF for my Master's. Well, this means that God has somewhere way better for me and that it's time I go my separate way :) I'm staying optimistic about my goals and options. Now, my next choice is FAU, and then FIU, USF and FSU. I want to stay in Florida and then plan out my next move. But in other news! I'm seeing someone really special in about 2 days! I cannot wait.. I have a surprise for them too! More on how it went next week. But just a hint: it's famous and everyone does it. Comments? Guesses? Post them!

Admissions and Other Notes LOL

Guess what? The committee decided to make the admissions THIS week... and in a manner of hours I'll know if I got accepted to my dream program. When I prayed last night, the first thing that rang into my mind was "Counting on God" by Desperation Band again. I already said what the song is about and the believe is still constant. I know that no matter what God will show me and give me the best solution and path towards my future, which is pretty much in His hands. But, on another note! I'm seeing my boyfriend in less than 211 hours! I'm extremely excited, I haven't seen him for weeks..

By the way.. the red in the girl's face is not a mustache lol it's a blush!

"I'm Counting on God"

This is a song by The Desperation Band which states that in every day of our lives, our focus should be on God. Not only that but we should be able to know that He is everything and He'll back us up. That;s pretty much my sense this week and God taught me through a sermon on Sunday that in times of trouble, we shouldn't complain nor say our emotions! Why is that you ask? Because expressing our emotions gives a weapon to the enemy to plan his next move and annihilate us. But the Lord also hears our complaints and He grows tired of them after a point too! After all, trials are supposed to make us stronger and He knows that the situations He puts us in will makes us better. So, lesson of the week: my master's is in His hands. My life is in his hands. This Thursday will be the ultimatum and if I get in, cool; if I don't, cool too. My world won't collapse, it will be stronger and wiser whether I get in or not. Faith is the certainty of the things we cannot see. If we ask something to the Lord He'll give it to us, but there is a catch: if He understands that it won't benefit us, He won't give it. But if He thinks it'll make us better, then He definitely will!Well, dudes, peace and GBU!

School is... Yeah LOL

Hey!

Things are starting to look harder and harder when it comes to school, considering my next week which I hope goes well. I'm supposed to be used to school being difficult, but I want to dedicate some of my time into other things as well. It's my last semester as an undergrad and I REALLY want it to be memorable. I also want to spend some time with my boyfriend, who is also busy with school. But most important I don't want to lose my cool and have a nervous breakdown. It's not fun. Therefore, I am definitely thinking of getting a massage this semester to deal with stress. This will probably be me in the massage table lol

Emergency!

This post is brought to you with an important message worth of posting a post today. UF committee will decide the applications in exactly 2 weeks from today! That means that I'll know if I got accepted to UF two weeks from now! I am excited, scared and nervous at the same time... This is dreadful! But I believe in a God of miracles that can totally bust and change people's emotions and reasoning to accept me as a graduate student. I mean, they accepted me as a transfer two years ago, why shouldn't they do something like that again? But at the same time, I will admit that I am scared because my GRE scores are not added up to their standards and my GPA is below 3.5... but I have progressed as a linguist and individual! I took a grad school class, I'm in my second class in what I want to study and I'm working for a professor doing things that I will most likely do in the future. Yes, I don't have another specification besides Language Documentation yet, because I love words and want to specialize in Morphology as well as Language Documentation and I didn't want to do that if I never took a morphology class before until now. I tried to go into syntax and phonetics, but I cannot cheat on Morphology, it's too dear to me lol I used to dream that I would travel around the world looking for the significance and history of one words, or in other words, be a historical linguist. But I just wanted the words part. and when I saw language documentation I saw that they needed ppl to actually go out there and research. Not only that, but Central American Languages are right there and I didn't want to go anywhere else, I wanted Indians that were already fighting for what they believed and needed help. I know that God's plan for me is to spread the need to go out there and document languages so we can analyze them and come up with a good resource that other can use to translate bibles and reach new people for Christ. I know this whole plan sound nuts, but is what I got in my heart and what I want to do... I hope the people in the Linguistics committee can see that and add me to the 15 to 20 people they'll accept into their program. No, I KNOW the people in the Linguistics committee will see that and add me to the 15 to 20 people they'll accept into their program. That;s the Spirit!!

Work and Homework

Hey,

Well, studying is not going according to plan right now in the sense that I'm not studying almost AT ALL!!!!!!!!!! I have a test in exactly 2 weeks, a homework due this week, another one due Monday and another one for practically the next fridays for A WHILE... At least I'm learning in the class that I actually wanted to take, even though it got super complicated in about half an hour XD of course.. Welcome to Linguistics lol

This is what I'm learning in the class that I love: morphology= study of words :)

Of course, this is syntax (the study of sentences) and this way it's easy to analyze them.. but we do the same thing with words! It's super cool! XD

Work in the Life

Hello, I have been thinking about what's like to balance God, school, family, a boyfriend and myself efficiently. As school gets harder, family get a bit more demanding and a relationship worth praying and fasting for, it is difficult to find time for God and think about his mercy. Not only that, but life gives you so much stress that sometimes you forget about yourself! So today, take some time for yourself and more importantly, God.

First Week of School!

First Week of School and I am not very motivated.. but we'll see.. Dragging myself up to classes will be the norm until further notice lol I must feel pumped!! ... Nop, I'm not lol

My GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hello 2012! Awesome year of great promises, growth and good things to come. Guess what? God gave me a boyfriend for Christmas! I'm incredibly happy for that and grateful beyond degree... But 2012 will bring that Master's acceptance to UF once and for all!! Happy New Year!
