  • Wow, I haven’t blogged in forever! :-O

    Current mood:excited

    Wow, my last blog was from last year, almost exact to the date...

    Hmm...another year, another blog. So now I'm about to turn 21 (my birthday is May 29!) and do the quintessential thing and go spend it over in Las Vegas. Not with just friends, but with my family. Kinda lame, considering most 21st birthdays are spent with people your age, and not your parents. But they are funding my trip, so... And besides, I can bring a friend. Not too bad, eh? I kinda want to bring a 21+ friend so I can go clubbing, but any friend will do. It's better to spend a birthday with a friend, than alone. That said, what else has happened in my life since I last blogged?

    Oh yes, how can I forget? 4 A's and 1 B- this semester! My best semester so far at LMU! 3.74 GPA Betches! 

    I got to meet Armin van Buuren, DJ Remy, and Breakfast in person. Too bad I couldn't get a proper picture with Breakfast since they were on my friend's camera that was lost.   I saw Ferry Corsten too the same night with Breakfast (April 12, 2008) at the Shrine. It was awesome, I even got to hear most of my song requests! (See my videos on youtube - search for "janeway529") I got to meet some forum members like Andrieux (Matt), Trudy and Michelle. Breakfast opened for Ferry and then during Ferry's set, Breakfast came down into the crowd and hanged out. I gave them both some "Stroopwafels" before they left.
    I met Armin and Remy 2 weeks ago, when they were in Hollywood to play at Vanguard on May 17th. Armin did an in-store signing at Virgin Megastore at Hollywood and Highland, but he didn't do a set. (You can see my pics.) I got to meet Jessica again there, and I got to meet Rukes for the first time too; really cool people.

     I'm planning on going to summer school again at SMC and then I'm off to the Philippines again! I haven't been there in almost 6 years! It really cool this time because my relatives from New Jersey and Texas will be there too! Then we're planning to visit my cousin in Macao, China. For those of you who are geographically challenged, Macao is a small island off the coast of Hong Kong, and is know as the gambling center/Las Vegas of Asia. My cousin's husband works there, so I'm going to see my niece for the first time, plus explore the island too!

    After that, I go home a week before school starts to get ready to move back in to my dorm. Senior year at LMU, here I come!

    Oh and if you guys want to reach me, facebook is faster, since I check and
    update that more than my myspace.

    See ya laterz,

  • Birthday + Life Update

    Current mood:anxious

    **I just want to thank everyone that gave me a gift or simply wished me a "Happy Birthday". I really appreaciate it. (It would take me forever to message you all individually, so doing this is easier.)**

    That being said, I've been on summer vacation since the first weekend of May, and I don't have to go to school at LMU for another 3 months, the end of August. Except that I am taking summer school at Santa Monica College.  Carpool anyone? I'm taking History 1 (8am-10am) and Nutrition 1 (12:30-2pm).

    I'm also seriously planning on finally getting my driver's license. The good news is that I am studying. The bad news is that I'm only halfway through reading the manual. Oh well...

    Yup, so far so good...


  • Fresh Start

    Current mood:restless

        So this semester is a fresh start for me. A new year, a new semester, and new classes. I'm taking Intermediate French 2, Enjoyment of Music, Contemporary America, Intercultural Communication, and Theories of Organizational Communication. (Yes, I am a Communication Studies major. ).

    My theories of Org. Comm. class is awesome! Basically, we have a group project of organizing an event. For my class it's LMU Idol, like American Idol. I'm in charge of planning and implementing the event. So, I'm scoping out locations on campus. It's not as easy as it looks/sounds.

    So yeah.....I'm hoping to raise my GPA this semester, so I can possibly go study abroad in Europe. Possibly in Bonn, Germany, as my university has a connection and program with them and I would get credit for my major classes. (And it's close to Holland. )
  • Finals Are OVER!!!!

    Current mood:relieved

    WOOT! Finals are over!

    But I still got three 1-page reflection papers and a term paper due monday, december 18, 2006 by 5pm. I think I can do it!
