The weekend was incredible, but I do have a few things I want to talk about other than my fabulous weekend with my boyfriend.

1.) How it feels to be the daughter and girlfriend of people who speak other languages-it is fabulous to be exposed to other cultures and to hear different languages constantly, but sometimes you feel really left out. ):

2.) HOLY CRAP THE SEAHAWKS, WINNERS BABY!!!!

2.) My boyfriend and I watched a romantic movie tonight ("How Do You Know?") and it got me thinking about what romantic things I am into- so I am attempting to compile a list which I will post in a post later-hopefully :D

3.) Philosophy- I have been reading "Pedagogy of the Oppressed" by Paulo Freire and wow, powerful stuff- I still have a ways to go in the book, but I am totally diggin what I am reading. Also- we are watching The Matrix next week in my film class-that movie...I think I have seen it a million times- growing up with my nerdy father :D I am excited though.

4.) EMERALD CITY COMICON! Dad says we are going. Oh my gosh.

5.) My boyfriend is incredible! We went out to Mexican food and got a cheesecake (from the cheesecake factory) last night and then ate Texan Grill today and went to a movie. He makes me heart melt, just as an fyiiii <3

Winter quarter begins tomorrow and I am only slightly excited to get back into the groove of things. I have been lazy since break started-but only in my studies. As far as socially and physically, I have been very active, working out at the gym and spending more time with friends than is average for me, so for that I am pleased.

This quarter I am taking 17 credits-five of which I am thrilled about, my "Philosophy in Cinema" class. Though this does not directly relate to my idea of a major, it seemed like "my" kind of class. I am also taking English, Math and Educational Philosophies (Mind you, I am still a freshman). I am already pondering whether or not to partake in Summer Quarter- or to dash off to Hawai`i again and spend time with my family. I am really not sure what I am to do, I have decided to try to "roll with the punches" this year, because it is surely to be a doozy.

On a different note, New Years was quite interesting and I learned that I have the ability to go past my personal qualms with bodily fluids to help someone in need and I am glad to have learned that fact and that the person in question came out perfectly fine.

I also got my New Years kiss- in an odd way.
