While at work this morning, I re-discovered some really good jams. Mariah Carey got me through so many confusing yet exciting moments in my life. I can't believe that I am almost 20 now. It was just yesterday that I came out to my parents about my sexuality. It was just yesterday that I was crying over broken fantasies. And now...I'm in college. I'm happy for the most part and I'm doing something with myself. I am being productive. I am surrounded around positive successful people.
And while some people believe in a higher power... I believe in music The beats, the base, the acoustics, the lyrics, the rhythm...it's groovy. Its fun and ambitious and thats what life should be about. Exploring everything that you can. Taking risks. Making mistakes....and then learning from them.
I am inspired to...have fun and be young. You only get that oppurtunity once!

Sleep is for the Weak
If I am not up studying for ridiculously HARD test, I am trying to support some class year in my school. Being an Resident Advisor is beyond "playing mommy" to my residents who live with me, it rolls into showing MAJOR community support. And quite frankly, as tiring as it is, it's pretty amazing. The different events that each class year commits to and bring energy to is fascinating...And on some nights, YUMMY.
But I must say, I do miss my shut eye. Like it's nobody's business. I miss SLEEP. AND snoring. And my bed...I'll find that sleep, I've been losing for the past week. And when I do, I am holding on to it, and never letting go...until class starts again the next morning, of course. lol

College is...
My friend Rosa is visiting me from home and let me say I AM HAVING AN AMAZING TIME.My day has been very unproductive yet rewarding. We went to a club last night and celebrated St. Patty's Days' in style.
We danced for a couple of hours...sanged along to the music in the car (REALLY LOUDLY) and made a Wawa's run on the way back to campus, but...
Wawa's was just not enough...And so, then came MacDonalds. As we were in the drivethrough of McDonalds, another car tried to skip the line...directly in front of our car. But we showed them who was boss.
My night was over at 3:30 with me collapsing on my bed after a nice hot shower...my friend didn't make it back to my room til 4:30-5...
Off to class at 1:30 and then...GAME DAY on the lawn of my campus....We played a card game called Store, using Uno Cards (yes, it's made up!) and then TABOO
Taboo anyone?
This day was a blast, enjoying the nice weather and lovely lovely people...College is...amazing.
Quote of the day: We wouldnt be doing half the stuff we do now if we were in high school, but now we need it (these things) to keep our sanity...

A Blog to Complain
*This is a blog about me complaining about my life. I apologize ahead of time*
I did not do my schoolwork any justice in my last blog. Silly me... Well, let me tell you know now. Let me tell you how my fate and I are LOSING love for each other...
My computer fell.
(my whole blog should be about this ONE moment). I saw it drop to the floor...so quickly yet so slowly. Speechless...
And maybe irrepably damaged. I NEED my computer. Bad. It is the link between the social world and myself. It holds all my treasured memories and words. It's made history with me...long nights...early mornings...it's my support system. And now it's gone. :(
To make matters worse... I have a paper that MUST be 6-7 pages due in 10 days. An analytical paper that was originally due IN APRIL...moved up almost a WHOLE FREAKING MONTH...(thank you, Political Science Research Methods class)
On to other news...my Philosophy of Feminism class wants to move a presentation date up...to NEXT WEDNESDAY...oh but the best part is...this lovely presentation has to be 20 mins long...
In other news, I am attending a scheduled event on For Colored Girls at my school...where I selected and ordered the food options for my whole class...I am excited because I did the TEDIOUS job no one wants to do at my school (and thats work with dining). So, I kind of rock!!
On to more FASCINATING news, I am going to try a new hair salon near my school caled NAPPY BY CHOICE. It's suppose to be a hair salon that can work well with NATURAL hair...(hint hint the name)...something that I don't see often with more hair salons that I go to. So, I am excited for this new adventure that lies ahead within the next week...(if I don't chicken out, because I HATE hair salons..with a passion. I hate the whole process, the smells, the forced socializing...)
This is my life for the week...extending into the weekend. GREAT

Love in the Fast Lane
I just got back to school from Spring Break and what a JOKE it was. I barely did anything besides...play housewife to my gorgeous girlfriend. It was fun and different to play into stereotypical "womanly" roles for the first weekend I was here. I cooked for her, I cleaned and I did the laundry. Check me out.
We partied together like a real couple...had the walk of shame together like a real couple...and fell asleep on top of each other like a real couple.
Spring Break was pretty cool and now it's over.
I am sooo swamped with work and stressed and exhausted.
And I can't even continue to elaborate on how tired I am because I know I better get back to it...urgh...yay college right
Zaraya
PS. But I had an amazing break and is so in love with my girlfriend. Yay LOVE
