Count Your Blessings

Has anybody seen "Letters to Juliet"? I just rented it this weekend, and I'm going to watch it.  Hope it's good!


2 more days 'till Thanksgiving! Woot woot! 

Today I'm grateful for:
1. The roof over my head, and because I'm warm and cozy in my home during this cold winter weather.
2. Having food on the table. We've gone through tough times but we've always had food and shelter.
3. My little blue car. It's not my dream car, kinda old, but it has never left me stranded and has taken me back home safely. It's been with me throughout my high school years and now through college. 
4. Being able to sleep in yesterday because my class was cancelled. A little extra sleep doesn't hurt anybody.  
5. Thanksgiving break! Today is the last day of class and then it's break time! Hip hip hooray! 

Don't forget to

Be Grateful

Hope you all had a great weekend! It's Thanksgiving week! I'm going to follow along with Kaylee and post 5 things that I am grateful for each day until Thanksgiving day. There are so many things that I take for granted, and I realize that I forget to give thanks to my Heavenly Father for all the things that I have. 


If you would like to participate all you have to do  is write a post listing 5 things you're grateful for that day, grab the code that's on Kaylee's blog and paste into your post, and then link up at the bottom of her blog.  With that said, here are the things that I am grateful for:


1. My religion. I don't know where I would be without it today.
2. Family, boyfriend, and friends. They've always been there for me when I've needed them, and I know I can always count on them.
3. Education. This is way important to me. Yes, there are days that I really really hate school, but I'm truly grateful that I have the opportunity of pursuing a career and better myself.
4. My job. I've been working in the same place for about 4 1/2 yrs. and I love it.  The people that I work with are just so amazing and nice. 
5. This country. I'm grateful that I was able to become a citizen of the United States this year. I feel really blessed to be living in the US. Coming here was the best thing that could have ever happened me and my family. It has opened so many doors for us.  I don't think that I could have accomplished all the things that I've accomplished anywhere else. Of course, at the same time I'm thankful for the country where I was born and lived for the first 8 years of my life- it's part of who I am. I'll never forget my Mexican roots and culture.

Your turn! :)

P.S. Remember how it was the season finale of my Spanish show version of Dancing With The Stars yesterday? Well, the guy I wanted to win WON! Yippee! He was able to win $50000 for the cause he was dancing for. :)

Sit back and Relax

Sundays are a great day to relax and spend time with the family. And if you're like us, we like to eat eat eat. I swear I gain 5 pounds every Sunday. 

Today is the season finale of this Spanish show we like to watch. Mira Quien Baila. English Translation: Look Who Dances. Which it's pretty much the English version of Dancing With The Stars. I love the pretty dresses the girls wear. So flowy and sparkly. Anyway, I hope this guy wins.

Happy Sunday!

K, I want to know everybody's plans!  I'm not sure what I'm going to do today. I think I might go run a few errands, go to the mall, go watch some movie with the boyfriend, and just relax. Oh, I just remembered, I have this coupon in $10 bucks for Borders that I need to redeem.  

So I think I'm going to go and explore the bookstore for an hour or two.  

Any good ideas on awesome books out there?  

Sorry I already read the Hunger Games Series, which was THE BEST btw. 

I heard about some book called 

"I am number 4." 

Is that any good?

Alrighty, well hope you guys have an awesome weekend!

 I'm going to get all prettied up to go out. 

Careful and remember who you are!

Oh and I know it's kinda early but I already wrote my letter to Santa.  If you wanna see what's on the letter check out the post.

Laters!

Wednesdays are the best day ever since they mark that the week is half way over and the weekend near! Yay! So today I'm lovin'...

My boyfriend has an American Bulldog and he's the cutest dog ever!

And to end off...

I don't know if you already knew this but Pink is my favor color. 

Like you couldn't already tell from my background eh?

It's fun, girly, and just plain lovely.

What are you lovin' today?

Stand By Me

So like a mentioned on my last post, I have a new blog! And I got it all prettied up, come on over and take a look. I'm trying to figure out how this whole thing (having 2 blogs) is going to work out though. I don't want to delete this one because then I'll lose the small amount of people that do read me once in awhile, (by small I do mean 1 or 2) but I also know that I will be writing more on my new blog...
Hmmm... Well if you wanna,

come follow my other blog.

Pretty please?

I feel like I'm talking to emptiness.

The hard part about being a newbie to this world of blogging is getting people to read you and comment.  Any suggestions on how I can get readers?

Anyway, I'll leave you with this song that I'm currenty diggin'!

I know you guys are familiar with this one.

It's the spanglish version.

Let me know if you like it!

Yay

Well Peeps! I got accepted in the UVU Nursing Program!!!

I start classes as a nursing student in the spring of 2011 and I'm super excited! 

I've been so nervous for this and I finally made it!

In celebration of this  new part of my life, I've decided that I'm gonna open up a new blog. 

"The Adventures Of A Nursing Student." 

It's fairly new but come over and take a look.  :)
