Super Busy

Sorry guys! I haven't had much of a chance to come on here and let you know how life is. I have about half an hour without having to do anything so i'm updating my blog!!

I've been incredibly busy with my classes, it seems all my professors are trying to get assignments out to us in order to get them back in before spring break in a week. I really hate it when they do that! Life of a college student....

I've also been really busy going to 16 hours a week of training for my internship. I actually have my final today and then I get my state license to be able to help people. That's what all my training has been leading to and I'm really excited to get started! This most definitely is a right step in the right direction and will look amazingly good on my resume. 

I don't know about where you guys live, but here in Northern California it has been raining like crazy! I took a nap after dinner yesterday and woke up to do some homework and all of a sudden I heard huge roars and saw light flashing from behind my blinds. It sounded so loud and felt like an earthquake almost. Like the sound felt like an earthquake and almost make the house shake....almost but it really did feel like an earthquake to some degree. 

It terrified my poor Bambi as well as me, especially because it caught us off guard. 

Anyways, hope you guys are doing well and don't forget to smile!

Hi dolls! Yesterday was raining and I didn't really have homework that had to be done, so after class my bf and I decided to go a couple towns over. We wanted to just get out of Chico and we figured Bambi, my little baby dog needed some time out as well.

Bambi is so cute! He loves going on trips and always looks out the window and really enjoys watching the cows eat and all the amazing scenery. I can see it in his eyes and it just makes me so happy to know that he's enjoying life and it's the little things that he enjoys, not his clothes or toys... This give me appreciation for life, and also appreciation for having my bf and Bambi in my life and having them support me with school and all other aspects of my life.

Sometimes I do take things for granted, and I feel bad for saying that, but i'm not going to lie. However, when I step back and see others around me and realize that yeah, I may not have the world, but I have a family back in Santa Cruz who cares and loves me and is always there for me at a heart beat. I also have my own little family here in Chico, that is there for me regardless of what happens, and I have a working car and a home that I come to every day with food, food that not every college student is fortunate to have. When I do that I realize, hey I have an amazing life, I have what I need and some of what I want, and I'm in college so that I can my dream career. A career that will eventually pay for my dream house with huge panel windows, and is built the way I want and decorated the way I want. With hard work anyone can achieve anything, you just have to put your mind to it and dedicate yourself towards that goal. 

With that said, I hope you guys have an inspiring evening! Muah.

Why are people prejudice?

So lately I have been thinking about racism, prejudice and discrimination. They all intertwine with each other in one way or another. But seriously, why are people prejudice?
For example, today I was on my Facebook and on my stream was a confession from the page, Chico College Confessions that really struck me in a way that made me feel angry and made me have so many questions.
The confession stated that the anonymous person was walking downtown when he noticed that a Muslim husband and wife were walking from just picking up their lunch, minding their own business. When out of nowhere, these two "red necks" as the anonymous confessor stated, yelled towards the Muslim woman and man the words, "Sand Ni****s" and "Towel Heads." Apparently the woman cried and the mad looked sad and they just got in their car and left, while the two guys that said the derogatory words laughed it off.
After reading this I just couldn't think, I let alone couldn't put myself in those poor Muslim people's shoes....the emotions that they must have carried and suppressed in order to not cause any unnecessary trouble. We all know from the media and pretty much anywhere that minorities are treated like the criminal in whatever case, even though it may have been a caucasian whom had began the fight or whatever it is.
I just wish people would understand that we are all human and we all have feelings and emotions. We cry when we get sad, we bleed red blood when we get cut and we have families that we love and would pretty much sacrifice our own needs to help our family.
I think those guys that bullied those people downtown are ignorant, they really don't know the situation and can't generalize the entire muslim population to be bad. Yes, some people where bad and did bad stuff to America, but it doesn't mean we have to take it out on everyone who looks like those people. In the inside all they want is love, they want to give love and survive the everyday life. Everyone exists to survive and within trying to survive by eating and having a roof over our heads we attempt to fulfill a purpose in this world. Whether it be help people, bring awareness or simply help the world go round. The world wouldn't exist if there were no field workers picking our fruits and veggies that we eat on a daily basis. If there were no checkers at the grocery store we wouldn't be able to buy food, if there were no teachers to teach new students so that they could go out there and provide services the world as we know it would crumble.
Back to my point, why are people prejudice? I think people just don't know. They don't have a friend from another race that could help change their mind frame and their stereotypes to that specific group. If they could only walk a day in the life of another race that is far from their own, then and only then, I believe that these people with these pre-conceived ideas about other races will then have a change of mind and a change of heart. But until then, this world will not be at peace, not until we decide to communicate and work together and change the way we think....

Just my thoughts of the day, let me know what you think...

R.I.P. Shirley Temple :(

I was saddened when I found out Shirley Temple passed away today. I was at school and found out through my Instagram. Isn't it amazing how social media sites are now our outlet for breaking news?

Finding out about Shirley Temple's death just brought on a wave of memories of when I was a little girl. When I was about 8 years old my parents would take us (my sisters and I), to the local library, which I loved! It was like, kid heaven! So many books and so many movies to check out. I believe the limit was about 5 videos for checkout, and my sisters and I got to choose which ones we wanted to see. They were all children appropriate movies of course, the upstair part of the library was strictly for children books and movies. 

I remember there were a bunch of Shirley Temple videos and we would always pick those and watch them over and over throughout the years. Shirley was such an idol for my sisters and I. We really looked up to her and wanted to be just like her. A girl that can tap dance and sing, she was everything to us at time. My sisters and I would watch the movies with my parents and I remember we would try to re-enact Shirley's tap dancing. Oh My God!!! We were definitely not tap dancing material, but god was that fun!!! 

Looking back and thinking about these moments, really makes me miss those times. Those times when my family would all watch the same movies and hang out and laugh and eat ice cream drumsticks. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and re-live those moment again with my family. Spending time with my sisters, whom I love so much! We are still closer than ever, but on a different level. We have grown up and are all different but very similar. Don't get me wrong, we still spend lots of time together, my sisters are my best friends, but when we get together watch movies nowadays there are more people added to the equation. I have an amazing baby nephew now, and my boyfriend as well as my sisters' boyfriends come along and watch movies with us too.

All I can say is, cherish those moments you have with your family, because it will not be the same again and it may be the last time you have times like those. You will still have family times but they will be different and not a bad different, but nonetheless, different. 

Thank you Shirley Temple for bringing my family together and keeping us entertained with you quirky personality. May you rest in peace <33

Besitos xoxo
