Back to School(well.. University): First Week

Today begins my second week of classes. It's weird to start on a Wednesday, it totally freaks out my biological calendar. I'm a person of habit, but I try to always switch things up and want to get out of my comfort zone. This week has been quite like that. I decided to take a workshop during the first days of classes where they taught us how to handle making the CV, the personal interviews and test when you apply for a job and how to dress properly for it. 

It was a huge success for me, I went all by my self when normally I'd ask for a friend to come with me. I feel I am becoming a little more secure and confident every time I take little steps like this one. Baby steps they say. 

The long way down to the underground floor at campus. 
As long as classes go, each and every single them have their positive and negative aspects. But luckily I am focusing more on the positives than the negatives. The teachers all seem nice and are very immersed in what they know and have a lot of good advice and experiences to share. The work for these classes has doubled up. I already have way too much readings to catch up with, but I am not complaining, I am quite enjoying the fact that I will be reading more, something I just don't do so much. 

Speaking of reading...Our brand new Library building. 
The weather is awful, I have been going to University with many layers of clothes so that I don't freeze to death, and to compensate that I have been drinking lots of coffee (surprised?). I have really missed being in there. Those walls and the corridors are just great, they are like my 3 security blanket, the first is home, the second one is my school. Oh and the people, yes, I've made good friends and met a lot of different people all with great stories to tell. 

This is a recap of my week, I hope you have a great day and make the best out of it. If an opportunity shows up, don't over think it and just go grab it.

Back to School: Notebooks

Hey Everyone!

I have been supply shopping for University and came across some pretty notebooks. I always, always, always use notebooks, binders, for me, are just so bulky and non-functional at all. What I do, is buy 2 of 5 subject squared paper notebooks and divide them  with in the classes I have. Lined paper is just not something I like. 

The notebooks I bought where from a local brand called Norma, which has a wide variety of designs. I tend to gravitate to the pretty and girly and fun designs. Last semester I bought one with Hello Kitty in the cover, which also came with...wait up! STICKERS! Oh I'm such a small kid with my sticker mania :) 

This semester I went for this cute Chococat cover one.


And this Paul Frank one.


I am taking 7 classes, 5 from this semester and 2 from an advanced one to make my next semester a little less stressful. 

You always have to go for the method you like the most and works out for you the best way. I like my notebooks for note taking and I literally write every important piece of the class into them.

I hope you are having a great week!

August Rush

Hey Everyone! 

It's August already! I can't believe how fast July has come and go. As the month gets to a start, Back to School is just weeks around the corner (or maybe just few days around it!). I have already worked out my class schedule and find it a very nice and relaxed one. I will have good amount of times to space my working commitments! 

This is a post where I wanted to tell you that I will do some back to school posts to help everyone going back to classes a little more all from Fashion to School Supplies, which are always a must (DUH!). I am starting my Junior year of University, so this posts might be more focused in that matters but also on high school because that is the most that I can remember from previous years. 


I still love to go supply shopping and am like a little kid left alone in a candy store! let's face it, I still am a little kid at heart. 

I hope you will enjoy the posts about back to school and if you have any suggestions please let me know in the comments below or through my contact information
