Heavy and Light

So, first off, I guess I wanna talk about a heavy subject...which is what is going on in Egypt! I've actually been keeping track somewhat and it's kind of scary to me. Imagine what it must be like for people living there! If you didn't know (and you should!), there have been violent protests in Egypt against the government and the president of 30 years. Apparently, they want him to resign. Believe it or not, though Egypt is considered a democracy, it is actually the least democratic out of all! The people have been using facebook and twitter as a means of organizing these protests so as a response, the government, has for the first time in history, blocked the internet and cellular phone access. Basically people are living there with no access to world info right now. It's scary. I was talking to my housemate and we both commented how it's pretty crazy how these types of things are already documented in the bible. I was reminded of how fast Jesus must be coming and how I should prepare myself for Him.

Other than that, things have been pretty productive today! :) I was able to finish listening to all the podcasts of my bio class and I even called my grandma in Taiwan to wish her a happy Chinese New Year! I'm taking a break now and looking at some great shoes from Zara. I'm definitely learning more about fashion since my breakup...don't know why that happened, but it did. Anyhow, I'm definitely going to try to invest in key pieces rather than buying a ton of stuff. That is just NOT smart. I realized that I actually LACK a lot of key pieces in my closet! For instance, heels! I can honestly say that I DON'T have any heels besides business pumps. The next thing I'm going to treat myself too after I finish this quarter is strappy sandal heels. I think nude/brown, and black would be two great colors to start off with just because they are very versatile colors to work with. Also, at my age of 21, I think heels ARE a necessity. Actually, before this past summer, I actually had NO dresses. I can proudly say that I own 2 LBDs! Now the LBD, aka little black dress, is DEFINITELY a staple in a girl's closet.

Anyhow, kind of a random post no? I guess I'll post this pic of LA that I jacked from my friend. I miss home...


Week 5 starts tomorrow! Fight on! I'll be home in a few days! YAY!!

Have a fabulous week everybody!
