2015,
This past weekend was a busy one for me. Since it was graduation weekend for my university, my social media feed were filled with posts about graduation. My friends graduated yesterday! However, this past weekend a schedule full of activities to do, that was not school related. It feels so good to be able to not worry about finishing a project or writing a paper.
After my final on Thursday, I came home and chilled for a while. My grandma was at our house so I talked to her for a bit. Then, I headed to the mall because I needed to do some retail therapy (summer haul coming soon *wink wink*). Considering that I avoided my phone the whole time and walked around so much that my feet had blisters when I came home… I can say, I definitely did some damage. Both to my feet and my wallet. I didn't really considering heels problem but since it was my second time wearing heels in a row, my feet were crying.
I'm the type of person who doesn't really like to shop unless I want to shop or need to buy something. Then, I can spend countless hours shopping. Falling for instant gratification is so bad, yet so good. But since I needed to buy a dress for an event, it took me a while to find which dress I wanted to wear/felt comfortable in/felt confident wearing. The ladies at the store were a real help.
On Friday, my honor society- Lambda Pi Eta- had its end-of-the-year banquet. I got inducted since I joined this past year. I was surrounded with my amazing friends and good food. I was able to talk to some of my professors outside of the classroom/university environment. It's funny thinking about it because the power dynamic was still there- they all had PhD's and I referred to them as "Dr."- but it was really relaxed. It was an incredible night.
These are only a few of the many pictures I have from that night. Shout out to my friend, Nico A, for two of the photos above! I'm so thankful for the opportunity to be able to meet these people, work with them, and be experience college with them. They've inspired me to do well in my classes and work hard to the best of my abilities so I can graduate soon. I can't wait to walk the stage next year.
Back to You, World

On Saturday, I stayed home working on videos all day. I had responsibilities to edit a couple of videos so I decided to use Saturday to rest and edit the videos. I didn't really do much except face my laptop and work with Final Cut. Plus, my Final Cut Pro was being slow and frustrating so it took me longer than I expected to finish the edits on the video.
Sunday, I went to my cousin's baby shower. My cousin's friend did a really nice job setting up and decorating. Everything looked so delicate and pretty! We played some games… Anyone remember all the children's names in the Brady Brunch and the Cosby Show? I couldn't. But I did win one game! It simply required me to open my party favor and look inside. Surprise! There was a baby toy. I'll take a free Starbucks gift card any day.

As we were leaving my cousin, Abigail, decided to spring up some news to my parents. Turns out I'm doing something exciting tomorrow! (I'm writing this Sunday, but it'll be published Monday/today). I spent the rest of the night running some errands with my family and chilling at home.
That's it for today! I said in my last blog post that there will be exciting news coming soon. I can't wait to write about it and put it in action. Whoooo!
Till next time…
