Woohoo!
It’s the last week of lectures! Now I am really regretting taking 7 classes…
I have so many finals, but I took off work and cheer is on a break until we start practicing for next season so I am all clear to study! I have lots to study for!
Today I had a paper due for history, my last photo due for photography, I took my surprisingly hard golf final (luckily I studied so it ended up being easy), and now Im ready for this reporting final!!
Well, this class was not like any other class I’ve had. It was great because all my other classes, the professors just stand in the front and read their powerpoints. This class we actually participated and received CANDY! haha
Here’s to summer!

Ive been to greek week my first two years and it was so fun to watch! My boyfriend is in a fraternity and i remember helping with thier background designs for skit. Im really sad i missed olympics this year but i bet it was as cool as the past years! Good luck with skit and the rest of the week…well awards hahaha. r u in the skit too?
emilymorenz:
This past week has been one of the most exciting and intense weeks of my life! Why? Because it’s Greek Week! I have been playing sports pretty much my whole life, but I have never taken part of anything this competitive. I find it funny that the media has led most of the world to believe that all…
Lately I’ve been noticing how my dog Belle has a similar personality as me. My mom keeps telling me how if I had a dog version of me she would be it. She loves to snuggle and take naps like me. She hates to be waken up and when she is, she is really grumpy. I hate to be waken up, especially if I have my alarm set and someone wakes me up before my alarm goes off….even if it’s just one minute.
Another thing I noticed is she loves to play only for a couple minutes and then she wants to just relax. That is exactly how I am. I went to an Angel game and during the sixth inning I wanted to go home and relax. Belle is also the baby of our three dogs, and Im the baby in my family too. My other dogs are boys and she bullies them around and they are twice as big as her. It is really funny how she can boss them around and they let her; she’s the queen bee of the house and we call her Princess Belle.

cassandra-cash: That is too funny! My story is similar! My parents bought my sister a chow chow when I was born and she named her Pebbles (Flinestones). My junior year of high school we bought a white maltipoo named Bam Bam. Pebbles died around my 18th birthday (I was devestated) so was Bam Bam. A year later my sister decided she wanted a dog with her boyfriend, and they bought Bentley a black lab. A couple months later I decided I wanted a dog too so I bought a light brown maltipoo named Belle. (We stuck to B names haha because my sister and I have B names. Brittni & Brianna) So I have 3 dogs in my house and we might be getting a fourth haha
Growing up, we had a black lab named Misty. Misty followed my sister and I around everywhere we went. Misty went everywhere with us, and we were devastated when she died of old age at 16. She was my mom’s dog before my sister and I were even born, so you could imagine how hard it was for my mom…

emilymorenz: I just posted why I cannot wait for summer and then I saw your post! Summer is my absolute favorite season! I love buying new bathing suits and eating ice cream. Yum! I totally agree with your post!
Even though my last post was all about how much I love rain/cozy weather, there is another type of weather I love…sunny! You see, I either like it like cloudy, cold, and rainy or I like it super hot and sunny (no in between). So now that this week has been in the high 80’s I have been super happy…

I am now regretting taking seven classes.
All my work is getting piled up and the class I regret the most is my bio lab class because it is on Fridays from 3-5:50pm. I have no clue why I scheduled it that way. I am not only losing hours at work, but it is cutting away from other things I need to do or attend. Luckily my professor is really nice!
I really cannot wait for summer to come!
My summer events:
1. MY 21ST BIRTHDAY!!! That means going to Vegas! Yay! I am so excited!
2. My sister’s Bachelorette Party. Since I am the maid of honor I get the honor of planning this special event. I am throwing her two parties; one party for all the aunts and girlfriends to come and the other party in Vegas for her close friends and bridesmaids. That will definitely be fun. Vegas will be in September and the family party will be in August. The family party has a theme which is “White Party/Cupcakes & Cocktails”. So every guest must wear white. I love themed parties!
3. I get to start my duties as cheer captain/president! Yay! Next year will be so exciting! I already have the whole year planned out and I am so happy we finally have a coach! Last year our coach got fired so we had to run our own program and if you think about it…a bunch of girls trying to teach each other how to do things is not the best idea. We ended up making an e-board and now we are organized! If you all aren’t doing anything May 18th at 6pm, we are performing at Quakes Stadium in Rancho. It is actually Cal Poly Day!
So that is why I cannot wait for summer.

Lately I have been thinking about how some trends have gone too far. It is really fun to be addicted to a new app until the creators start getting carried away. Or when fashion trends get carried away.
Here are a couple of trends that have gone wild:
1.) Nail art. I know most girls will kill me for saying this, but lately nail art has gotten way too crazy!! Here are some examples:
^these are nice, go for the glitter and multi color look…
^these are tolerable and creative…
^who doesnt like cupcakes?! This is a little much…
^Not only are the nails longer, but the design is crazier. I am not sure you would be taken seriously if you wear these for too long.
NOW FOR THE BAD ONES:
^Not only are these 3D, but they are not functional! If you hit something one of the flowers will come off and then i will look odd.
^These are just way too long. How do you button your jeans or pick up your pencil for notes?!
^OK. Props for your artistic abilities, but do you really need a mural on your nails?
2.) Celebrities trying to be “unique”. Theres a difference between being unique but still able to relate to your fans and just over the top madness. Let’s take a look:
Relatable Nicki Minaj:
Not so much:
Relatable Lady Gaga:
Not so much:
3.) Angry birds. That app was so cool to play until…don don dooooonnn…they made a movie out of it, tshirts, back packs, stuffed animals, other versions, new characters. They missed the message that everyone loved the original and now everyone is over it. Why? Because they went way to far and that pushed people away.
^The movie
^This is understandable because they are reaching the young audience. (My 5 year old cousins play angry birds)
4.)Hair trends. Ill admit hair trends have always gone to far, but these past couple of years have broken some records!
If you are going to do the dark to light hair, blend it!
^not like this…
^like this!
Another hair trend is grey hair! Really? I guess people are anxious to be older:
No words.
Thanks!

mmmmmmmmmmm I love peanut butter too!! It’s the best! Tagalongs are my favorite too! When I was in girl scouts i would sell the tagalongs more to people
emilymorenz:
As I mentioned in my last blog, I have a passionate love for peanut butter. The past 36 days have been the hardest of my life. Why? Because I gave up peanut butter for lent.
Before the day of Ash Wednesday began, my dorm was filled with two jars of peanut butter, Tag-a-longs (the best girl scout…
