The Extra Mile

I was presented with a dilemma a few days ago. There is this one class that to my surprise I am doing horribly in. It was a complete surprise because I had thought that I knew what I was doing. The question I faced was either to withdraw from the class to save my GPA or try and make it work, because it is a required course. After talking the advise of some of the staff and professors I decided to go talk to my professor. She said that she was also surprised with my grade. After a long talk and a few encouraging compliments I have decided to pass with flying colours. I know it is easier said than done but life isnt easy. These decisions are not easy and I think they are the true lessons in life. This is it, this is the time to go that "Extra Mile".

Almost a week ago my friends and I finally made it to the movies. Avatar in English and 3D was amazing. I am upset that I only got time to see it now and it has been in theaters for quite a while now, but I made it and I resisted watching it online just to watch it in 3D. I have to say I was mesmerized by the affects. When we first got there we were welcomed with a nice surprise which was a discount on our tickets because we are students. To sum it up good company, popcorn, soda and an astounding movie, it was a very relaxed night that I have been wanting for a while now.

Surprise Party!!

Last Thursday was my Birthday and my friends threw me a surprise party. I have to say it was very touching. I would call it scared party because when I got home they all shouted SURPRISE and I was startled more than surprised, I even dropped my phone hehe. In all honesty it one of the nicest things that anyone has ever done for me, I have amazing roomates!!. A few attempts by my friends have failed miserably in the past because I always seem to find out, but this one was the one that worked. After the cake and everything we went to the same place I celebrated my birthday last year and it was just perfect. I would not have wanted to spend my birthday in any other way, a little bit of family would have been nice, but you know what they say "Friends are the family you choose". Thanks Guys it was an unforgettable surprise!!!
