Merry late Christmas, everyone!

Wow, crazy to think Christmas is already over! I shall give a run down of how my Christmas/Christmas Eve went:
Christmas eve Corey and I went to his Uncle and Rosangela's house. She's an amazing cook and she made us dinner. The food was really good! But the entertaining part was the dessert. The chocolate was too hard so she tried to microwave it and it caught on fire. Good times.
I had a very nice day celebrating Jesus' birth with my friends and family. In the morning, I had breakfast with a ton of people at Corey's house. It was nice to meet some of the family I hadn't met yet. Very awesome people. Then we opened presents. Corey and his mom got me a ton, and his grandma got me a necklace which made me happy. After that we went to Reg's parents house and had dinner. It was really yummy! And his parents bought me presents which was surprising but very kind. Then Corey and I headed to my house where I opened presents from my parents and we played WOW.

ANYWAYS, now it's time to figure out what's going on for New Years! YAY! I always love New Years bc it's a time to get together with people and reminisce about all that's happened over the past year.

I want cereal, so goodbye for now!

An update on my WOW issues!

So, I finally got the issues resolved yesterday. I was so incredibly happy. So my main is no longer a night elf for the Alliance, it is now a blood elf on the Horde. I don't necessarily like the Horde, in fact I STILL think they're the bad guys, but blood elves are freaking amazing. And I guess they have a good reason to dislike the Alliance, since they destroyed their home and made them outcasts. Anyways, my cast is a Palladin, which is cool cuz I get to heal and fight. I'm basically a holy warrior. Pretty sweet, I must say. I also had my first battle with the Alliance today, which didn't go so well since I'm only level ten. Corey said we'll go back when we're level 19 and kick some butt. I'm pretty excited. Oh and I finally beat Corey in a duel!


ANYWAYS, exams are this week, but I don't have any tomorrow which is why I'm still awake. So I'm going to sleep in a bit and then spend the whole day studying. Well, probably not, but I'll try.

Good luck with your last week everyone! (except those of you who this isn't your last week).

:D

Home, WOW, Burning Crusade, etc

Well I have an announcement, and it's one I'm sure most of you have at least heard rumors of but just to clarify...
Yes, I am moving home next semester. Well, most likely, anyway. I'll be going to Vanguard, which is right next to UCI... So Kevin, get excited.

Also, more on my ranting about WOW (yes, WOW as in World of Warcraft. Yes, I am a nerd. And... yes, it has taken away immensely from my social life). So I was thoroughly enjoying playing WOW, however, I decided that I would love to have Burning Crusade as well (the extension pack) so that I could be a blood elf or a Draenai if I want. Being absolutely thrilled, I took a trip to Meijer and bought the Battle Chest pack, rushed back to my dorm and tried to install it. I installed WOW first (since I Was still on the trial version), and then tried to install BC. But at the end of the BC installation it told me I needed to install WOW. So I tried to enter WOW and it told me I was elligible for the BC expansion and couldn't play until I finished installing BC. Slight problem? Yes. So I called tech support and the guy told me that I had to uninstall WOW and reinstall it. Sounds easy, right? WRONG. I have spent the past two days attemting to install it but it INSISTS on going RIDICULOUSLY slow. Thats okay though, because when all is done, I will be able to enter the World of Warcraft and once again conquer all!

Okay that is all.

SAVED!

Yes, if I had waited one more day I would have been on the dead friends list. But I saved it.

Anyways, I have been super busy lately, if you couldn't tell by the lack of posting.

Thanksgiving was super fun. It was nice to see everyone from home again and have yummy home cooked food again!!!

I am very excited for Christmas break. Wouuld all of you agree with me that this semester went by WAY fast? I Can't believe we only have two weeks left! Next week is kinda gonna suck bc I have three papers and a presentation due, and you know me, procrastination all the way (especially now that Corey got me addicted to WOW. Yes, I said it, I play WOW now). Then finals week is going to be very hectic.

Well, unfortunately that's all the time I have to post now. Actually it's not, but I'm going to go play WOW. Haha.

Adulthood

Yes, it is true. I am finally an adult (as of yesterday).

My birthday was wonderful. I told everyone I wanted food and money, and that is what I got. A total of 370 dollars, chocolate from Cristina, Corey, my parents, and Sarah, pretzels from Rebekah, a coupon to the fish house from Cristina, and a cake from Calvin (well, my parents told Calvin to give it to me). I got some other presents but I'm just listing off the food bc I think it's funny. My roomie says my present is going to be chocolate cuz she thinks it's funny that so many people got me chocolate.

How did I celebrate? Well, I went out to dinner with Brandon. Aimee was supposed to come but she has mono so she couldn't. Then I came back and shared my cake with some wonderful people, and then I knitted with Stina. On Sunday the girls and I might to to the spa and dinner, if we can find a spa.

So... it's interesting being an adult. I can now legally smoke and do other raunchy things if I so wished. But I don't wish to so none of you have to worry about me.

Anyways, my friends are pretty freaking awesome. Yay!
:)

OOPS.

It's been quite a while since I updated. My bad ("Mah b!"- that was for you, Stina).

The past few weeks have been eventful. Corey came out to visit last weekend. I missed him. You have no idea how much. And now I miss him even more than before he left.
:(

Also, last week was midterm week, aka hell week. The beginning of the week was okay but I had three papers and a midterm for Friday. I'm glad that's over, but I have two papers due Monday. HOWEVER, next week is advising/reading recess so we have Tuesday and Wednesday OFF! That makes me incredibly excited.

The next few things I have to look forward to are my birthday, and Thanksgiving when I come home. Yes, tomorrow it will be only one month until I get to see Corey again!

I have also once again been reminded of God's grace and mercy. I really need to start reading the Bible more. So please pray about that.

That's all for now! Blessings everyone!
