University girl...
I just finished my required homework for tomorrow thank the lord, amen! Seriously! That was quite the ordeal but it's finished now so I get to relax at my new desk, in my new chair drinking a cup of peppermint tea with a squeeze of lemon. I thought I'd paint a visual for anyone who is reading this. I am debating whether I finish up reading the last 25 marketing pages I have to read for Wednesday, or pop Titanic into my portable dvd player and cozy up on my bed with my new blanket and read them later on when I get to my aunt's house... Or maybe I'll compromise and read ten pages now and then watch Titanic, and then read 15 pages later tonight. Anyways..
I'd like to say that I am already adjusted to this whole university thing but that wouldn't be the truth. It still feels like a short term kind of thing. I feel like last week was orientation and that university starts next September. It's also probably because I am not staying at home for my two days I am at school. I have always gone to schools that are at max a ten minute drive away from my house so it is a bit surreal to be learning the bus schedule for a different city. But I am staying with my godmother who is like a second mother to me so I'm sure I will adjust pretty quickly. It's nice staying with them, they are really the best! My little cousin Julia who is seven, made me a wood box and the drew on the front " Alicia's Stuff". Is that not the cutest thing ever? On my first day she cut out a little pink paper heart and wrote "Luck" on it and put it in my bag. I showed a couple of people that I met and they all thought it was adorable too...
I met a couple of really cool people too! They are all really interesting and some of them are pretty experienced with the fashion industry. One of the girls I met had been modeling for a few years and had met Coca Rocha. She and I are doing an Ab and Core workout class together at the school studio. :) It's great because I can't do yoga quite as much as I'd like because of school. I still go at least twice a week but I used to go three or four times a week so it's good to get a different kind of workout and at school. So far I like my classes and my instructors. It's all pretty good so far! I'm still nervous though so knock on wood for me, I don't want to jinx it! Oh, except I had a small fiasco getting to school one day. It was my first time taking the bus to school so I went to the wrong bus stop. I waited and waited and my bus was not showing up. I asked a man next to me if my bus came to the stop and he laughed and said I was at the wrong bus stop. My bus had left the bus stop I should have been at and wasn't coming back for another half an hour ( I would have been late) so I panicked and called my dad and he called a taxi. Luckily I had some money in my bag, and the taxi drive was sweet and told me he would let me go for less because he wanted to cut me a break. I took the bus home though and I didn't screw up. I love when people are nice :).
By the way... I MISS MY BEST FRIENDS!!!! I hope you had fun at the Taylor Swift concert!! I hope you sang your hearts out to the songs like you do when we are together! I love you gals!! I want to see you all soon!

Chillin in my thai fishermen pants.
Quite a while back I did a post all about how obsessed I am with these super comfortable pants and then two days ago my awesome best friend Millie gave me a grey pair with embroidery on the bottom. I was so excited!! And still am, so thank you Millie you are grand. Lots of fun at playland the other day with Millie! The new atmosfear ride freaks me out but I love it. The wooden roller coaster will always be my favorite ride ever.Yesterday I went to my godmother's cabin up in the mountains for the day and it was great. I drank two glasses of strawberry wine which is p.s delicious. I don't want to sound like a weenie because I am seventeen but I really like wine. Maybe it's the portuguese in me. The weather is kind of iffy/nice. I want to go to the lake today if Josh and Jesse ever wake up..

To Be Free by Emiliana Torrini
I love this song. The music video is kind of trippy though.
It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself

Obsessed
I got a sterling silver Pandora bracelet for graduation and I have to say it has become a bit of an obsession.I've always loved them, I used to be crazy about my friend Mia's bracelet! The charms above are the three that I have so far. The hedgehog is my favorite and it's lucky according to the sweet old danish woman that I bought it from. I just love it.
I want this one at the moment.
I really love these bracelets, they are so personal and they are a lot classier than those italian link charm bracelets that were popular a few years ago. I just love them!

Chocolat and rain
I just saw Chocolat with Johnny Depp.Yum. New favorite movie right under Titanic seriously it's a really good movie,very inspiring and it made me emotional.
I would love it if the clouds and rain could screw off so summer could actually begin.I feel like this is just a really long spring break. I hope Mia and Millie are having the best weather in Shushwap (is that how you spell it?).I finally graduated! I am a big girl now. I just finished sending in my transcript for Kwantlen. Super scary, I wish I was starting school in January instead of September! I don't feel emotionally ready for this! Still, really excited because I am on the path heading towards what I want to do. :)

Thanks you are great
Here I am still stressed out and it's a good nine hours later. Wow. Now I know this is my own fault for allowing you to ruin my day and stewing about it all this time but thank you for making me feel stupid and small. Seriously, it may be pathetic but you hurt my feelings! I think it's wrong that you talk to people so rudely just because you are stressed or in a bad mood. I am stressed and on edge almost everytime I walk into a room your in and I still talk to you respectfully and I always try to be as pleasant to you as I can. But you don't always deserve it! You can be really nice and sweet and there are times when I go on about how much I like you but then you behave in a way that makes me forget why. Like now. God, when you make someone afraid to ask questions about the class they are in or afraid to make mistakes to the point where they literally feel like they are going to burst into tears that's when you know you are awesome. Seriously, well done. It's not fair and I don't deserve it and my patience and "sweetness"( it's a good thing I'm sweet you say. It's a bloody good thing or I would have flipped my lid and left your class long ago) is wearing pretty thin. I understand things must be really stressful for you and of course I don't want to add to that by making mistakes. But you know what, at the end of the day all I can do is my best and if that's not good enough for you well then I guess this is going to be a painful couple of days. It's not like I sit and try to make mistakes for fun. Believe me, the sooner I can get the hell out of your class the happier I will be. I know you're an adult and I am not and maybe that makes you feel like it's okay to patronize and talk to me in a rude way but I don't believe in that. I may be younger than you but I know how to keep my emotions in check, at least to the point where I am nice to everyone and you definitely don't. Tomorrow I am going to force myself to go into your class and I will be as nice to you as ever and you might be a raging cow or you might be nice to throw me off. Who knows. Because you are a ticking bloody time bomb. Still, I am not going to be rude to you because I am better than that and because at least one of us should behave like an adult.

Grad a week ago already
Grad night is over :( it was a week ago today actually and it was the best night of my life! Seriously. I think I was getting my make-up done at about this time a week ago. Everyone looked amazing ( my friends looked especially awesome) and it was so much fun.
Millie got her N!!!!! So exciting! Especially since she has her own car. !!! :D P.S. Sun, I need you to come back.

Excited!
I registered! That was quite the ordeal but I am now registered for The Apparel Market, Introduction to Marketing and a Business class ( forget what it's called). I thought I'd ease myself in with three classes a week instead of a full course load of five classes. I am excited though! SO ready to get the hell out of highschool and do what I actually want to do. Prom's in two days :) I can't believe it?! So excited!!
blah.blah
I am drinking my lime water and trying to find the registration time for Kwantlen but it is so difficult and frusterating! I am just frusterated in general. I wish some people would just be sensitive to my feelings and not say every thought they have. Just filter sometimes! I don't want to hear things like that and I never asked to hear every opinion you have! But oh well. Not a big deal. Also, yesterday I watched No Strings Attached and I really liked it. Natalie Portman is my idol. Seriously, the most gorgeous and elegant actress in the world.
