.... seth and i have received our acceptance letters! we both got into point loma nazarene & i also got into cal poly and san diego state. not sure where i will go at this point. cal poly is out cause it is so far away, so it's down to PLNU vs SDSU. both great schools, one is private with a small student body, one is obviously a state school and has TONS of people. it would be awesome to go to school with seth though. major difference is tuition cost. MAJOR difference. so we shall see how it all plays out. that's the biggest decision going on for me at the moment. seth also has some decisions he is facing at the moment, and we are just taking things one day at a time.
as for school currently, seth is almost done with one class & trucking along in his others. soon he'll only be attending one class on campus & the other two are online - lucky duck! my classes are going well, calculus is getting tougher, but I think I can get through it. Hospitality is going well - doing a group project where we get to do research at wine bars - so that's kinda neat. geography is pretty good. the teacher is hilarious and always says the funniest things you would never imagine a 70 year old man saying. (conserve water, shower with a friend!) but his tests are crazy hard! bummer :(
what else?!? ares got attacked at the dog park, but handled it nicely. this dog is three times his size and he did not back down. that's why his middle name is "killer"! haha. but he did survive & has no battle wounds. Luna Marie (one day I called her this and it just stuck...must be from shay) is doing well. always barking at other dogs - so she doesn't make many friends. but we do have a good little group that meets at the park & all the doggies get along! it's basically a pug pack (4 pugs: Ares, Luna, Hank & Ernie) + a frenchie (Dukes) & a boxer (Summer).... and the occassional visit from Cassius, the old english bulldog. i'll have to bring the camera one day to capture the mayhem! it's quite adorable actually :)
i am also going to donate my hair to locks of love. it's something i've always wanted to do & i've finally fought the urge to snip my hair off so that i can get to that point. so in the next few months it should be over ten inches in a ponytail and i will CHOP it off! the working out has been going pretty well too. seth wrote up this awesome workout for us alternating days between swimming & running. it gets pretty tough, but hopefully i'll be bikini ready by june :) or sooner since we live in cali...haha.
sorry there are no pics with this post... i need to upload them to the computer.. maybe next time :) arrivederci!
YAY for getting into the colleges!!!!!! im uber excited for you both :) I wanted to do the locks of tlove thing too but i have to wait a while to do that mine is just not long enough for me to take off 10 inches and not looke weird lol. Im also totally jealous of the dog park. thats so neat that you have little playdates :) Good luck with everything i miss you lotttts and am so glad you are posting stuff like this so i can keep up with you!
ReplyDeleteARG.. I just wrote you the longest, best comment ever and it just deleted it! I will try to summarize it but know its not nearly as good. Congrats on getting into schools! Of course you guys would! Are you having to pay out of state tuition? That is a kick in the ovaries! The weather looked nice where you guys are... we wish we were there! Its funny that the boys are probably doing the same workout... but you are getting benefits from it.. not this guy! :) Nick goes and runs... I tried to run across the street to my moms to grab something and nearly went down from pulling a muscle in my leg! joys of pregnancy! We go swim and Nick swims 20 laps.. I go at my own pace or just stick my feet in the hot tub. Ha! In time though I will kick it into gear. I can't imagine your hair that long! That will be SO fun and SO cute to chop it off! We miss you guys so much and cant wait for you to come out! May maybe? I am available all the time this summer :) We do have a break off from school for 2 weeks or so in may, but whenever you want is good :) love you!
ReplyDeletewell it looks like it will take me a little longer to grow my hair out for locks of love, so i hope i can do it - and not give in to the desire to cut it short. i am having to pay out of state tuition, which totally sucks - i have to wait a year to declare residency :( i wish i was doing super intense on the workouts - but i'm such a pig that no matter how much i workout, i consume more calories than i burn... i'm a bum :) but shay, we are planning on visiting in may! and also VA in june! i love you and miss you, carla & shay! (and nick too).
