The Storms and Flooding of Highland

     Most of California has experienced almost an entire week of non-stop rain, about 5 1/2 days of rain, and Highland, the city I live in, was the hardest hit.  For most of the time during this storm, I was very upset, for many of my birthday plans and holiday plans had been postponed or canceled due to the rain.  As of now, I might still be disappointed about my plans being ruined, but I am now thankful that my house, the houses of friends, and other family members were not effected by the floods that took place here today.  I do feel really bad for the 100 people or so who lost their homes in highland to flood waters and mud left behind.  Their holidays have been ruined, along with many of their possessions.      The first of the storm hit on Friday.  When I saw the rain, I got extremely upset, for I knew this meant I would not be going paintballing with my cousin Krystal and her fiance John on Sunday in Colton.  Later on that day, I started not feeling well, and ended up with a

Getting the Chance to Move on

On Wednesday, Dec. 8, I received an e-mail from the California State University of San Bernardino.  I have officially been accepted to the Fall 2011 Quarter.  This is some really good news.  This good news seemed to have taken forever to get to me.  It is about time I get this chance to move on, because I am really starting to get sick and tired of Crafton Hills College.  Yes I like the campus, but 4 years there tends to get tiring.  I kinda feel bad that I have been at a community college for 4 years, but what matters is that I am still in school, and getting closer to my degree.  In order for me to get to register for Fall 2011 at CSUSB, I will have to pass all my classes this semester and next semester.  I think I will be good for this semester.  I will have to work my ass off next semester to really make sure I can pass the classes.  I am really not looking forward to Economics Class :(
