The past few days have been a mixture of…
- fun and boring
- studying and relaxing
- healthy and sugary
- fit and lazy
To be honest, I can’t wait to be done with finals and back home. I miss it. I have grand plans to eat healthier, get back in (better) shape, and hopefully work a lot. It’s easy to get caught up in the “college” scene, and I think it’s due time for a break and a snap back to reality. USC is very go-go-go, and I am looking forward to living at home and focusing on family for a while.

Anywho, here are some recent happenings.
Lots of studying…
Lots of caffeine…
Lots of snacks and desserts (hey, it’s finals week)…
Lots of packing…
Lots of NCAA men’s volleyball games…
USC beat Lewis University at the semi-final game on Thursday night. They advanced forward into the Saturday championship game.
The game was especially exciting because it was USC vs. UC Irvine, two local LA schools. There were a ton of fans from both universities and the energy was great.
The Galen Center was PACKED and it sure got me excited to dance/cheer on the court next year at basketball games :)
My aunt Cori and cousin Collin were at the game because Collin plays for UCI’s team. (He’s super talented!) After three intense matches, UCI took the title of NCAA champions. I was sad that USC lost, but happy that Collin’s team won! Both teams played well and it was great to get one last dose of Trojan spirit before the end of the year.
He’s 6’6″, but somehow still hidden in a photo… haha.
Overall, I’ve been soaking up the beauty of LA and and my school…
As much as I want finals to be over so I can move back to NorCal, I know I’ll miss Los Angeles and my college social life. Thank goodness I have two more years ahead of me! It can only get better, right?
And on a funny note, how ridiculous is it that my school has monogrammed elevator buttons, but can’t put a chair or table in a dorm study room?
Priorities?

Good luck with your finals! I agree that lots of caffeine and snacks are totally justified during this time, haha. Rock out those tests and then enjoy being HOME! I’m pretty excited myself. :)

Ugh end of the year finals + moving was always extra stressful!! Hope that they went well and that you are getting ready to head back to nor-cal! It was always sad leaving college but it will be even better when you go back next year! And that’s ridiculous about the furniture vs. buttons. That’s how we used to feel at LMU about our perfectly manicured grass vs air conditioning in some of the buildings!

Woo hoo almost done! I used to love coming home for summer – I would work out, work, eat healthy, shop, and lay out poolside like it was my job :) Enjoy summer!
