I've Given In

Well its happened. I've decided to create my own blog. Who knows if there will be any "followers", but I think this could be interesting! After getting off of work and eating dinner I am now avoiding cleaning my bedroom. In my mothers words..."It looks like a bomb went off in there!". I wont disagree.
Its that time in a Cuesta College students life where its back to the books and boring teachers. I'm looking forward to this being my last semester at Cuesta! Where will the next step in my education be? Azusa Pacific University, Concordia University-Irvine, Concordia University-Portland......at least I now have it narrowed down to 3! Filling out applications, sending out transcripts, sending test scores, paying application fees, and pastoral references. Boy oh boy is this more work than I expected. I did find one nice break in the money spending, www.chegg.com is a site to rent books and for every book you rent they plant a tree. Great prices! It is becoming quite the popular site among college students who are always on a tight budget. It has become increasingly difficult to find jobs in SLO county, I am so thankful I have a great job waitress-ing at the wonderful Griff's Pizzeria and Bistro in Templeton (http://griffspizzeria.com/). Extremely delicious food. Not having to pay rent like many other students is so nice, saving money! It will all be gone once I begin major courses at a university. They seem to be sucking students and their parents dry.
