Well then!
About my trip to Yosemite...
Picture link below
We left on Saturday in the morning and it was fine and the weather was nice, but we heard that it was suppose to rain, which sleeping in a tent and sleeping bag this late in the year isn't always a nice thing to hear when you're going to Yosemite!
Saturday we got all set up, our tent, yaddy, yaddy and what did it do?! It RAINED! Yes, it rained...most of that day and through the night. Luckily, our tent survived, though Kristi and I were on the slope going down the darn ground and our egg crates, that we sleep on, got wet. 3 out of 4 of them. Though, our other stuff, besides one small edge of Kristi's pillow stayed dry. Kristi and I came to the conclusion we've been spoiled. Egg crates not only provide comfort, which wasn't TOO bad considering no rocks, just hard, cold earth, but ALSO warmth from the ground! Thank goodness our sleeping bags are GOOD ones. I just bundled up as much as I could onto the egg crate most of the time after that.
Sunday wasn't TOO bad. It rained a bit off and on, but wasn't nearly as bad as Saturday. Kristi and I went bike riding and go our backs splattered a little with mud and stuff, but it was nice. Cold, but nice. I swear it never got warmer than 55 while we were there. Hoods, two layers of jackets/sweatshirts, and gloves was needed on our ride.
Monday was the nice day. Kristi and I rode to the Ahwahnee Hotel and spent hours in a big "great room" where there were couches, tables, fire place and stuff for people to sit in. Kristi and I did our work there. It's a BEAUTIFUL hotel. Ahwanhee Hotel website Should check the link out. There's some pictures spread out through the site when you click on the room rates or whatever else.
The low for Monday night was 34! That's what it was predicted at least...don't know the actual, I tell ya, though, it was COLD! We got a fire going though, which was nice since we didn't get on Sat or Sun. Monday night it started to rain somewhere early in the wee mornings of Tuesday, the day we left (today). It started snowing around 10am...and it wasn't just a little snow, it actually stayed on the ground after it fell. Talk about interesting...
To say the least, it was a nice trip. We ate good, thanks to my mom! But I had enough adventure with the elements after today... I am VERY thankful for being home!

OHHH!!! World Thoroughbred Breeder's Cup Championship is COMING UP!! This Saturday at 10am for people on the west coast on NBC! The Breeder's Cup is at Lone Star Park in Texas this year for the first time. I'm QUITE upset about Azeri (a mare) being put into the Classic instead of the Distaff where she'd compete against other mares and fillies instead of the male horses in the Classic. She's almost garaunteed to NOT win in the Classic, whereas in the Distaff she's almost garaunteed to WIN. Oh well...I'll just have to hope for a win by Pleasantly Perfect, and a 2nd or 3rd for Azeri, and a 2nd or 3rd for Funny Cide. I do NOT want Birdstone to be ANYWHERE near the top 4 in the Classic. Azeri and Pleasantly Perfect are going to be retiring after this final day of racing and the Breeder's Cup almost always determines the Eclipse Awards for '04. I want Smarty Jones for 3-year-old male and Azeri for Older Female and Pleasantly Perfect for Horse of the Year and older male. I wouldn't mind having Roman Ruler as 2-year-old male, but I dunno.
Okay, that's my rant about my upset for the day when I came home and found out about Azeri. For those that don't know, I'm really into horse racing as a bystander. OR if you wanna learn more go to bloodhorse.com or ntra.com or breederscup.com!
All for now!

I guess not much happens to me much lately...
Not much new has happened. *shrugs* I wrote last before my math midterm. It went okay. That's all I'm going to say about it until further notice...
All my classes are going okay too. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to take next semester. I'm being held up on my language. I don't know which level of ASL I should take. Other than that, it's pretty solid of what I'm going to take. Chem I, Calc II, Ocean, Atmosphere, and my language, and MAYBE an activity to fulfill one of the grad requirements. We'll have to see. I'm gonna take anywhere between 16-17 units next semester.
I still like working at Borders. It's a lot of fun and I love the books around me? What can I say? I deem myself a bookaholic! That and a candyholic. It's a good thing I petsit still, or I wouldn't be able to support my book habit! Some people have problem with alcohol, I have problems with books.
I did get most of my Christmas shopping done too last weekend. I still have a few things to pick-up at stores, but I'm for the most part done, Like 85% of my shopping is done. I'm GOOD!
I'm leaving tomorrow for Yosemite. I'll be gone from Sat-Tues. We're coming back a day early, but I have no complaints because of the fact I won't be missing too much of classes. I'd have made up my Wed Calc class on his Thurs class, but I get to do the workshop on Wednesday, which is GOOD because if I attend the rest of them till finals I get 7 free points on the final! How cool is that?! But any ways, I'm kind of glad to be coming back a day early. I can get some stuff done and I only work next Saturday, which is nice. I've got a BIG group presentation on the 2nd of Nov (the day of elections!) so I need to get together with my the rest of my group and such to coordinate and junk.
Any ways, I think that's it for now. I'll write more when I remember.

Dang...Been a while since I've updated. I guess that's because my routine is pretty much the same, again. The last 2-3 weeks really has been pretty repetitive. I go to school M-F, work M, W, Sat, with the Chiro M and Th. Not much was drastically changing. Though, this week is proving a bit different, but not too bad. I took M-W off at work because I can't get to work with my parents going out of town, so I set up a few appointments at school M and Wed. I got an e-mail on Thursday saying my scholarship money for Monterey High came in. Gotta go pick the check up, just not sure when. I can't cash it till Thursday, at the soonest, so I just might wait a while longer. I also took my calc midterm last Wed. I haven't seen my grade yet, so I HOPE I do well! My homework grades have been pretty good, and I do the homework on my own, so that's a good thing, but WHO knows. *shrugs* I think that's about it right now. I'll write more some other time...
