Yeah....

So.... three months and ten days.... thats as long as Brian and I were together.... 

He dumped me Via FB IM so im kind of upset about that... but of course he had a reason... I'm really upset about this.. I cant stand it. I loved him. I still do. I was in love and he just quits. He gives up.. he says he doesnt know what he wants..

But im not gonna fight for someone to love me... he wants to be through... I guess we're through...

First Day Of Classes

Alright people. Can you say best day ever? 

First day of classes and I only have one class. Spanish 101. Awesome! I actually think Im going to do good in that class. I love Spanish and have always wanted to speak it fluently. So, if all goes well in 101 I'm making Spanish my minor. And best of all my prpfessora looks just like my SPanish teacher in High-school (whom I love) so I'm going to be liking this class.

After that class my amazing boyfriend is waiting for me outside and we go to the bookstore and get the girl I'm going to room in with and me and her go to housing and make it official that I'm her roomie! So, then alls I gotta do is move in.

I also checked up on a job that I'm trying to get and I'll more than likely hear from them this week or next..

So, now here I am in my new room. After like 20 mins of moving and cleaning then like 30 mins of putting my stuff up I'm all settled in.
see...


 Its got a lot more space than my old room :) so Im very happy with it.



Side note.. Tomorrow brings Me and Brians' three month anniversary :) how cute? I know right lol..
Well until then... ~Raquel

Back in the 'Vallo

So, I've been up since 7 AM this morning, packing and preparing to come back to Montevallo. Drove 3 hours crying because I just did not want to leave my mother. I cry every time she does. I never thought it would be this bad you know?  

But I get back and my roommate's not back and wont be for the weekend so which is great :) But there are signs everywhere saying that we should go back home. T_T Because there is a Winter Storm coming our way this up-coming weekend.(by the way I live in Alabama) and we're expecting 7" of snow up here Monday. Surprisingly not my first snow encounter. haha. So since I live 3 hours away I get to stay for the snow :) How lucky am I? Very..... If the power goes out in our dorm we're being told that we're going to the SAC to stay there.... fun... not...


This is my dorm Tutwiler btw....
 The trees are in the way sorry... and this is the deck.....





 I really do like living here.. it's pretty awesome.


I hope this semester is better than last which I think it will be. I'm not taking 20890708324831714903894028 million music classes... I'm not kidding. My first semester in college I had 9 classes with a total of 13 hours. How retarded is that? Only one was a general ed. class... So, for someone that doesn't like school it's pretty dumb that I have that many classes my first semester in college... But anyways....


I guess I'll let you know how the weather is tomorrow and Monday. I might even post pics of the snow!! haha... until then..

Now that I'm

College

So, I leave for the University of Montevallo Saturday for my 2nd semester of my first year in college. Am I excited? Yes. Am I really? No. My first semester was not what I expected. I was a music- ed trumpet major. The program was just asking to much out of you. It was exhausting and depressing. For one, the freshman class that I was apart of were just completely immature. Like, I felt the 7th graders in my old high-school were more mature than them. It was crazy. My whole time up there was spent in a practice room or in the recital hall listening to people play music that you really don't care about.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I love music. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for music and I love it for that reason. I always have a song or tune in my head, I'm always singing and I love that I wouldn't have it any other way. But doing it 24/7 for a lifetime teaching in school? I don't think I could do that. I really don't like school.

But now I'm starting over. I'm going back to my first major that I wanted to do. Writing. Creative writing. I love to write. It's something I've always enjoyed and it's something I'm good at too.

Even though I did meet my boyfriend in college :) And he's really great. So I guess something good did come out of it ;)


I'll see you when I'm back in Montevallo again!
