new year = new semester = new GPA please

Cheers to 2008! Time is flying by so fast. I can't believe I'll be graduating in a couple of years. CRAZINESS. I was getting bored with my old layout so I decided to start anew and changed it up a bit.

My winter break turned out to be better than I expected. I ended up re-reading all the Harry Potter books and caught up on some good movies. Meeting up with old friends was fun as well! It was good to relax and unwind back at home and not worry about doing laundry :P.

What is up with the semester starting on a Monday?? It's throwing me off thinking we actually start tomorrow! My schedule is definitely not settled yet. I'll probably end up waking up at 8 tomorrow to try and do some last minute fixings. Here's what I have so far:

BIO 301M
B A 324
MKT 337
SPN 506
PED 107

I'm 26/50 waitlisted for MAN 336 but I have a feeling I'm not going to get in. I signed up for weight training so I can get some kind of constant exercise but I'm going to try to switch that to basketball.

After my worst semester last year, I've decided to focus more on my grades this year than anything else. I want that 4.0! Sorry extracurricular activities...you're on hold. I'd also like to thank the WGA strike for postponing new episodes of Heroes and Ugly Betty. That will definitely take away some of my distractions.

I'm quite excited... I bought some new business shirts for my BA 324 class. I'm sure it's not really going to help with my grade but it's a nice feeling to know I have new, clean clothes!

I also just finished my UTLA application for Spring 09! I'm going to turn it in tomorrow to make sure I have a guaranteed spot. The CIBER program this summer also looks like a go, so I should deposit my check for that soon.

Well I hope everyone has a good first day tomorrow.

Let the long nights of studying begin.
