It is sunday and I am dreading tomorrow...

Tomorrow morning I go for my review with my boss...which is cool in some sense, because I get free breakfast out of the deal! But I am little concerned with the overall sentiment that will be expressed at this fun meeting...Unfortunately, the media kit that I had hoped to surprise her with at my review will not be finished for at least another day, which kinda irks me, but it is my own fault.

This weekend has been really filled - and really fun. Friday, I went to Diamond Bar to have dinner with Luis and his parents (enchiladas). After we ate, Luis and I drove around in search of coffee and a place to chill. On our drive we explored neighborhoods with crazy huge houses. I left DB around 11:15 and pulled up to my house at midnight, at which time I passed out in my bed.

Saturday, Luis and his dad picked me up from my house and we drove to a motorcycle store in Newport, then to Babies-R-Us in Tustin to buy gifts for Carolyn & Chris, then went to Carolyn's baby shower. Good food and fun times hanging out. We then went to Sebastian's soccer game, where the little stud scored 2 (out of 5) [team] goals. HOTT!! :) We then went and picked up Chinese food...rented a movie...hung out...went to sleep...Spent the night in Diamond Bar...

Sunday, was spoiled (again) by REALLY good breakfast and coffee :). Taught Sebastian how to play chess (mixed with a couple of rounds of "connect-four-and-sometimes-three") while Luis replaced the chain on his motorcycle. Had lunch and headed down to the OC. Made a coffee stop and went with Luis to his lab, where he conducted more research, and I started to study for the GMAT...

So that brings me to the present...I am typing in my blog as a break from studying, as I have read like 80 pages out of the Princeton Review book and my eyes are blurring...I am going to have a long road ahead of me with the math, but the verbal seems alright. I know on December 18th I am going to be the happiest person alive, as this test will be behind me.

A tangent thought for me to close with this evening (and then it is back to the books): I fear I have lost my penchant for writing...More specifically, I feel I have lost my ability to write well...I feel like all the comes out on paper is jibberish...I don't know where I lost my finesse, but I really need to try to get it back...Perhaps I should enroll at OCC for some writing classes or something...
