Well even though things have been crazy and stressful with school. I had a little peace of mind when I bought my plane ticket to Spain yesterday. Even though it cost $915, I got really happy and excited because I knew that soon before too long I would be seeing real beautiful places and getting a huge leg up on my future Spanish pursuits. The feeling I had after buying that ticket wasn't one of grief, but one of relief. I knew that I was making a good choice to receive good training, education, and secular knowledge/experience in my life and towards my career.
I will upload some of my most anticipated places so that you can enjoy them too. In this order,
if all goes well, Rabat-Morocco.
Barcelona
the Algarve, in Portugual,
Granada and the Alhambra.
a picture of Lisbon,
Malaga.

Madness
Some of you may have seen me before, when I look exactly as this man. Going crazy, passing many nights with few hours of sleep, BECOMING LOCO!!!
This week at school has just been a culmination of bad days for me. After taking tests on consecutive days to start off the week, I get the results back and see that on both of them I got an 84%. Generally a good grade, but not to me because that is what I have gotten on all my tests so far this semester and I have not been able to make those scores go up, no matter how much I try or study. It is not happening.
This has been very depressing to me, and stressful as well because I cannot seem to get any better. It doesn't help that I am unofficially taking 21 credits this semester, and 17 officially. (I am auditing Spanish 2020.)
I didn't think that 17 credits would be too tough. and in reality, it isn't. but what is hard is having a easy math class each day that you cannot manage to master. and having to do that homework each day-usually at 11pm- and having little time to study for your 5 classes.
Having to deal with all this, and not seeing any improvement, knowing that my scholarship is in real risk of being removed after this semester's performance, and trying to deal with Study Abroad travel plans is really driving me nuts. I am quitting my night job at 6-8pm of cleaning at the school so I can devote more time to studying, but that won't happen until next friday. So until then, (or after spring break) I will have to wait until I can really make a bigger push towards attaining satisfaction with my grades. Wish me luck

Start of many things
I am starting this blog so that others can follow me and my endeavors to wherever and whatever they take me. I believe that our dreams are not merely fantasies, but the desires of our hearts made manifest to our conscience. I seek to be an example to all those who have ambitions and want to see them fulfilled. I hope you enjoy
