17 down. chronological order ignored.

so first off ive neglected this blog completely! im sorry. I went through my list (which i realized i posted out of order but decided that gave it personality) and check off the things ive done. I made a visual representation. its not really special but i like it and will throw it up here when i can scan or take a picture of it. alrighty... being checked off the list.. #1,11,14,17,21,22,31,34,46,48,49,60,61,63,64,84,94.

#1. Spend one entire weekend home with my family only: Well let me tell you I spent almost 2 full weeks with them when i was car-less. Not too bad. I do really love them and it worked out just fine.

#11. Go to the health center at CSUF: Fairly basic. accomplished. some of this list youll notice was kinda an at the time to do list...whoops.

#14. Become very close friends with a co-worker: I've come really good friends with quite a few of my co-workers and really close with about 4 of the girls. Kiki, Melissa and I assemble dream team! And Rachel and Lauren and I assemble las chilenas! :)

#17. Visit Mary in Berkeley: Had I never done this when I assembled this list? Because I've visited Mary in Berkeley 3 times now...... Alone when i traveled by train to Berkeley/SF (worst trip ever! [in terms of transportation not the actual weekend]) With Sarah during spring break and recently during SF Pride.

#21. Invite new people to the dorm: I believe this happened constantly and will happen alot this coming year as well. I love making new friends and inviting them to meet my dorm family!

#22. Take O101 girls to the beach at night: Ok I admit this is a bit of a cheat because I never took hannah mae or cara and I took lisa and olivia separately but it counts to me...

#31. Travel to a Fullerton friend's house: DOUBLE SCORE! Olivia and Lisa's pads! I've also been to Katie's and Allison's and Tom's aunt's which half counts.

#34. Stay in a hotel with friends: What a bonding trip that was.... An amazing birthday where we learned way too much about how our bodily functions all operate differently and how some people dont shit often enough. We also found the best OJ EVER! and yeah it was fun and AMAZING! I also stayed in a hotel with a different set of friends for pride. My beloved BFF Katie Ann and her sis raisha and Kiki. fun times? yes and no haha :)

#46. Make someone a birthday gift: :) I made Jaylene a pillow with a Peace Sign on it and it was made with alot of love and time and effort and some blood from needle prics! Haha

#48. Dance in the rain with friends: Me and Lisa had a whole photoshoot based on dancing in the rain! it was alot of fun! We should all jump outside and dance the next time it rains!

#49. Have a boho-chic photoshoot with cara: WE DID! Cara is AMERICA'S NEXT TOP! haha and oh it was so fun on a pretty day and I LOVE!!! the main shot i got of her! so boho! so adorable!

#60. Buy fruit at Farmers Market: I bought 3 nectarines at THE FARMERS MARKET at 3rd and fairfax! :) I love LA! yummy fruit!

#61. Use more loose leaf tea: almost done with 2 bags of loose leaf! way better! love controlling how minty my stuff can be!

#63. Clean inside of my car: this was originally a to-do list type item but it has so much more meaning now. The car in question is no longer with us and I performed the final inside cleaning job the day i went to get all of the things out of my totaled 2002 silver camry! R.I.P. Charlie Fontana with the Beautiful Hair.

#64. Complete a whole drive with ipod on shuffle no skipping songs: This is actually the First thing I accomplished before this list was even scanned and online! I was glad my ipod knew what i was in the mood for that long drive from Sanger to Fullerton! I enjoyed it alot because i found some songs i didnt even know were on my iPod and ended up loving them!

#84. Clean my room: Similar to #63, the last time i cleaned that room it was to move out of it and it was sad because i had to pack up memories and the family unit we had in that dorm! I loved and will always love my roomies in O205

#94. Have the Valentine's tea party at the dorms: with about as many people who would have shown up in sanger as how many showed up in fullerton (like 5/6) youd think it was not a success... but it was and i loved it and this year it will be even better! :)

YAY! 17 down! and im sure more i just overlooked this time! ill have to try harder to accomplish some of these!

until next time,
