Busy & Bewitched!

Last week I started my third term at school and I must say I'm really excited about the next ten weeks! Since I switched to full time my life is going to be quite busy and also a huge challenge for me to stay focused and manage my time well, since we all know about my procrastination tendencies :)


My Ethics class will be really interesting to say the least. I'm a little perplexed about stating my opinions, though. The instructor told us a story of her last Ethics class... she had a student who told the class about a website that tracked women who had abortions so that this group of people could hunt the women down and perform honor killings! The craziest part is when the instructor asked whether or not the student agreed with this ritual, believe it or not he said YES! I mean holy shit right? 


And my history class... at first I was dreading it but I think I'm going to enjoy learning it the second time around and hopefully retain the information :) The pro is that the instructor is really cool and the tests are just essay questions which I feel more comfortable with, but the con is that it's pretty much lecturing and taking notes writing as fast as you can the whole time!! I actually try to design my notes so that they are visually appealing to look at it... is that weird? hehe


I think I'm really going to enjoy my Publication Design class. I will be learning InDesign in depth and since there are some newbies in the class we are going at a slow pace, which is good. I've already learned so many tricks in just one class I'm excited to see what our projects will be!


But I have to say from first impressions I'm most excited about my Concepts & Critical Thinking class... the whole term will revolve around a single project based off our own personal mall store concept, its business identity, marketing concepts, store layout and design, then wrap it up with a research paper on how we solved problems and came to solutions and closure. Next class we are going to head over to the mall to be inspired by the stores and come up with our own store sketches and ideas. How cool is that? It's exciting to me, and I really want it to be amazing. I know I will most likely have to use a lot of programs that I'm not yet comfortable using, which will definitely be the big challenge, but I have found that the most challenging projects are the ones that I'm most proud of. 


I hope this change in my schedule doesn't show in my blogging! I'm going to put sponsors on hold until I can develop a more dependable blogging routine. 

I'll leave you with some of my latest obsessions that seem to have me under a spell... enjoy :)

Oh my... in my opinion this is God's gift to mankind. 

Tuna, Crab, Smoked Salmon, and Cream Cheese, Tempura Fried & Served with eel sauce... HEAVENLY!

LEMONADE ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINKS

These babies get me through night school and they are delicious! I'm usually not a fan of energy drinks because they taste weird and awful, but this one is non-carbonated and tastes just like lemonade. 

Can you say addicting?

I really, reeeeally want one!

AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL CYCLE 16

Confession: I've been obsessed with this show since junior year in high school, seen every season and every episode. I got so upset with the winner last cycle that I swore I wouldn't watch again (I've done that a lot) but... I keep watching. It's down to the final three and the season finale is this Wednesday! 

I'm rooting for Brittani to win this one! (yes, those are live bees!)

Mmmm... mix up this delicious concoction with some Sprite and you got the perfect iced tea! 

I have a feeling I will be sipping on these all summer long :)

. . . now back to the grind!
