Loving; Sleeping in and not having to be anywhere all day! Ok, so that makes me sound like a lazy bum, but I usually go to school and work year round. Knowing that I don’t have to wake up early or go anywhere is soo great.:)  

Reading; The Turk and my Mother. Technically, I have yet to begin this book. I’ll get to it…eventually.

Watching; Ugly Betty (via Netflix) with my oldest child. I probably won’t be getting any Mother-of-the-Year awards for letting my 11 year old stay up until 2 am, but I am getting some awesome memories. I’m also watching Rosa Diamante (via Telemundo), Teen Mom (Is it sad that I’m going to miss this?), and (when I have the time) old movies on TCM.

Anticipating; Going back to school. Funny, since I kind of just complained about it, lol. This will be my last undergrad semester and I am soo excited! Also, all of the kids will be going to school, so until I find a job I’ll have so much free time.

Listening to; Pandora. I like to put in on shuffle that way I get English and Spanish music and, since I never know what’s coming next, every song is like a surprise! (Ha, I am such a dork). I’ve also been listening to Rilo Kiley A LOT.

Planning; Away to make this summer not suck. We'll see how that goes.

Working on; Exercising and organizing my home. I hate working out, but I have a goal to reach by my b-day (October 3rd), so I am really forcing myself to keep at it. As far as organizing goes…yeah, let’s not.

Wishing; I could be at the beach! I love the beach and one day, when my kids are grown and I retire, I am totally moving to Mexico and buying a beach house.


P.P.S: I totes copied this post from Liz.

26- Being Happy

This is perfect. I love Louise's videos.

P.S. She also has a blog. .:)

25-Target Beauty Bag

This was in my mail a few weeks ago. This is the fourth beauty bag I've received from Target and I've really enjoyed them all. I mean, who doesn't like getting free stuff. Right? Right.

Inside the cosmetics bag (which is my favorite one so far) were the following items:

• Aveeno Living Color Color Preserving Shampoo and Conditioner
• Garnier Fructis Color Shield Shampoo and Conditioner
• Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter - Peach Parfait
• A coupon booklet that includes $15 worth of savings
• TRESemme' Split Remedy Split End Shampoo and Conditioner
• Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 70

So far, I've only used the TRESemme' shampoo and conditioner and I plan on buying the full size bottles. I also plan to use several of the coupons the next time I head to Target. 

Well, I have a four page paper due tomorrow. I should probably get that started.;)

24-Books I Read in May

1. Sofi Mendoza's Guide to Getting Lost in Mexico-Malin Alegria
2. Along for the Ride-Sarah Dessen

So, this is only like two months late. Whoops. I keep meaning to update this blog more (I even have a list of future posts), but then real life happens.

Anyway, I enjoyed both of the books I read in May, I knew I was going to like #1 before I even read it for the simple fact that it is set in Mexico; I love anything and everything Mexico. I haven't been there is so long and this book reminded me of all the things I already miss. I didn't like the protagonist so much at first, but her character really developed throughout the book. I also like that it focuses on such a serious issue, but still manages to be funny.
I also knew I would like book #2 because I've read (and loved) all of Sarah Dessen's other books. I really like how there is always some mention of character's from previous books (in new books) because I always wonder what happens to these people after the book ends. Is that weird? Yeah, I thought so.
Ok, that's all I have to say. See you next month! Just kidding.;)

23-These Are The Times

School is over! Well, except for those of us who are taking summer classes. I'm only taking two, though, so it's not that bad. Remember that time I took 18 credits? Yeah, never again.
Two weekends ago, Jackie, Zoey, and I all got our hair cut. The pictures above are of Zoey. I am not a fan. Everyone else loves it, but I want her old hair back.:/
We went to the beach last week. It was awesome and I hope we get to go a lot this summer! I forgot my camera at home, but I'm kind of glad. Sometimes trying to take pictures distracts me from the whole experience.
Ok, I'm off to class!
