Starting Anew

        Well, the Prodigal Girl has returned. It has been over three years since I last blogged; I'm not much of a blogger. I don't know what it is about starting something new or getting back to what you started a long time ago so that it seems new. I guess it's just that feeling of new-ness that inspires you to get it right the second time around. Restarting sounds fun- I can do this. . .
        Since I'm here now I will give a super brief update- yes, lots has changed- including my perspective on life- interestingly enough. I am more open to new ideas and accepting of change i.e. the way things are.
        I am a sophomore, attending OCC where I have been finishing up my general education and also to receive my AA degree. I have a basic idea of what I want to do--which is to double major in psychology as well as interior design--my two top passions in my life.  
        I admit I have been slacking off due to minor distractions- I am "brilliant but lazy." Aren't we all? It takes some effort for me to really get interested in something--I am always changing my mind, sometimes even at the last second (alas, by then it is too late)--that is why I feel my path is not set--destiny and the future can be altered for the better. I can get easily discouraged, feeling overwhelmed, but that just means I must try even harder to do my best. I can have/do anything I set my mind to.   
       Food for thought: If you had the power to do anything, wouldn't you take that oppotunity to do it? I probably would; just remember to always be careful what you wish for, 'cause you just might get it all.

All About Me: CIS 100 Computer class

 I am a slow learner in technology but am learning nonetheless in computer class CIS100. I think it's a great class, especially with Ms. Ernsberger teaching us. She is awesome. When I am in this class I think of The Sara Connor Chronicles- about computers, machines, technology, etc. I want to know as much as she does about the future tech. industry and be ready for the end of the world when it finally arrives.
I love orange coast college. I enjoy the classes I am taking even though I am not a full-time college student. All my life I have been imagining how college would be and now I am here at last for my senior year of high school. I'm so excitedly stoked to be at occ. I think the library is the greatest thing invented here. I believe it to be my personal sanctuary of peace and comfort when I need a place for down time. If I could, since I love the library so much, I would live here. My food would be feasting on books and thirsting for more education and knowledge. 
I like all kinds of random things and feel like I want to do everything. I'm interested in Anime, interior design, Arizona being my state, reading books, biology, latin words, learning, education, saving the planet, becoming an animal rights activist-maybe, teaching, remembering things that others don't, serving in community, home, etc.
