i don't want to be a stupid girl

hello lovers and friends. so it is friday once again, and as is in my weekly blogging tradition, i am here to update you on the statuses of my life. i'm loving all the feedback i'm getting every week .. it's flattering to see that people actually read your shit. lol. =) but anyways .. so it's the first week back from spring break and i'm just glad that i don't have any exams this week. lol. but then again, yeah, i've begun to study my brains out for the madness coming in the next 2 weeks. someone please help me i think i'm going into brain overload. i think the whole time management thing is really kicking in and kicking in reeeal soon. lol. rcdt practice is bound to happen soon .. apparently we're performing for the barrio fiesta/play/performance in the end of april .. not sure what we're doing, but since it's primarily promoted for the enjoyment of the rutgers community, there's not much pressure to outdo another group. lol. i miss my rcdt crew .. those long and tedious practices over the course of a month really brings people together. they say people bond more when they go through traumatic and extenuating circumstances. not to say that practice was traumatic .. lols, i'm just kidding. we all know practice was a lot of fun. =) so of course, i need to work that into my schedule .. but hey, i think i'll be okay .. the intensity will probably come after my 2 weeks of madness so i'll be fine. so just in case, if you're in the area and not busy, come check out our performace! ^_^

and as i'm typing away in my blog right now.. ironically, i have the incessant urge to go and study. but at the same time, i'm really tired and you know me, the last thing i want to do for fun is study. but it's that time of the semester again .. time to feel extensively overwhelmed with the plethora of exams and other assignments that plague me. the endless cycle continues .. and i plan on taking it one day at a time .. even with my tendency to look ahead and constantly dwell on what i should be doing tonight, tomorrow, and for the rest of the 2 weeks. but, after april 9, the weight will be off .. so hopefully i can take a breather. i'm so drained -- physically, mentally, and emotionally .. wow. i need to do something fun, and soon. before i lose my sanity. haha. today my friend the super-est sam and i had an intense and crazy systems physiology session today. as in, i don't think i've ever studied that much or that hard at one time. granted, yes, there have been times where i have been deep in thought processing information so that i guarantee and convince myself that i know exactly what is going on and reassure my confidence in my abilities. but i think i've truly reached a new limit this time. it's so much information, all at once, and i have to remember it all. wow .. but i'm glad that we were productive, and i can successfully say,

that one of the primary goals of the metabolic processes in our body is to sustain the amount of glucose in order to provide key energy for the central nervous system.
.. therefore, go eat some candy. but don't eat too much.
because the excess glucose is converted into triglycerides that get stored in adipose tissue.
and don't go on low-carb diets.
because the amino acids you take in actually get converted into glucose anyway.
.. so go have a slice of bread, okay? nice.

wow, i think i was a little too esoteric up in that blog. i think my smartness just came out. sweet, i still got it. HOT. [lol, i'm not even sure i used esoteric right in that context, but it sure is my favorite word. =)] but, moving on to a new effervescent topic.. my hip hop class is ending on monday! i'm sad. :sadness: and i am working on finding a replacement to maintain the oh-so-killer bod that i'm toning up for bikini season. that's right kids, no one likes to see all that junk in the trunk showing over the summer at the beach. hmmm, does anyone have any suggestions? i really suck at, working out. haha. i went to the gym on busch [the campus i was on at rutgers xP] by myself one tuesday night after my statistics class.. and i felt kind of corny because being the -- person that i am, i can't even lift some of the equipment and a lot of the equipment weighs just about as much as i do. yeah, i know, i'm sad. and when i was at the gym, i noticed how much of a social activity working out was.. and which was probably the reason why i more successful getting my workout in a class setting like my hip-hop class compared to working out on a machine. it's just not working for me .. haha. so, that night, somehow, i fell into joining the eskrima club at school. it's a long story .. all extraneous details aside, it was really fun. lol. i felt special learning this whole new thing and feeling coordinated. it's like dancing .. ^_^ except i get to carry a cool stick and learn how to defend myself. sweeeeet. when i came home, my parents weren't exactly thrilled that their young daughter stayed out late to learn how to stickfight. so it really kind of annoyed me .. because you know, i kind of want the support of my parents .. after all, being their child, shouldn't they support me in whatever i choose to partake in with my life? anyways, it's not like i'm doing drugs or engaging in something that is detrimental to myself. so, in a way illustrative of a social concept i learned last semester in social psychology .. when someone tells you not to do anything, the more you want to do it because you feel like your freedom is being limited. so, there you go. lol. yay eskrima .. yay for me. lol. does anyone want to buy me some bamboo sticks? haha. i think i want them for my birthday.
and after thought and typing, this blog is done. and so long! lol. peeeeeeace out son.
