Exhausting my Luck


I'm a true believer that you can have a limited amount of good chances per duration of a lifetime. AND THAT MAKES ME SCARED O_o simply because I've been on a good luck roll since Monday.
First I made it all the way to a job interview, didn't get the job but I'm not feelin' it.
I got PBL signed up with the American Airlines Arena which was a big hit considering that not only we got the contract but I managed to retrieve out Tax ID No. which we've been struggling to get since like Forever.
I reserved the Denny's spot for our CarWash (the panned date wasn't taken), and the lady offered me more fundraising activities like if it was my birthday.  =D 
I got 6 spots for my members to do AAA Orientation at FIU when it seemed impossible to get people to commit to the games due to scheduling conflicts.
I decided to get a second minor in Economics and my graduation date was extended by one semester ONLY!
I have three 4 people (Thanks Paula) signed up for my Fundrasing Committee
I don't have mid-terms until next week
and... IM ALIVE!
Life is looking too good, I might found myself in a hole with no food or water soon... just sayin'

Reinstating Blogging: Spring Break

It's been a while since my last post and I must add, lack of motivation knocked on my door once again. I believe that a lot has been accomplished and those stories are impatiently awaiting to be told. These past weeks daydreaming has been filled with believes of self-fulfillment and contemplation on what is to be unfold in the upcoming instances of my life. 
WTH, let's leave the crap talking behind....Pretty is the name not the way to talk. Freaking awesome how I'm to be called FBLA-PBL VP OF FUNDRAISING!!!! ...*deep-tone voice guy screams "Bravo" on the back, and the crowd stands up and praises resound all over the room*....okay, excitement time is over...for now, cuz hell yeah i've got some more exciting news!!! YAY! wuuuhuhuhu *cheers of encouragement from the crowd*
Okay, perhaps my way to communicate excitement is a little overbearing, but SPRING BREAK is more than enough reason to celebrate, and now is when I omit the screaming. So yeah, that week came around and was definitely...something. First I want to start out by saying that no matter the weather (CLOUDY!) always put SUN BLOCK LOTION on, seriously! or you might end up with a pealing face in the middle of a business conference. Protect your Reputation. :) 
Other than that, I want to say my break was privileged by the presence of my wonderful friend Indira who came back home from freaking Jacksonville which is all the way across the globe...well, not really, but I was really happy I got to spend some time with her before I had to leave to Tampa for the Florida FBLA-PBL State Conference. Random TacoBell night, getting a burned pizza, and having to call a buddy over 21 to watch a Movie! ha, it all made me feel sooo....high school :P
NOW, PBL is a BIG deal for me, I believe this organization offers sooo much while taking so little that's not even funny. Between social events, community projects, and the mingling and "liming" it's impossible not to have the time of your life. 
The FBLA-PBL State Conference is a big event that brings together all the chapters from the State of Florida to network, and to prove their skills, any kind of skills if you know what I mean; but more than anything it let's you know who's who around you. Btw i must say that I met some pretty incredible people, and I got to bond with the most amazing members I've ever had the pleasure to meet. yeah, you!
The Highlight of the conference was indisputably the amount of awards Florida International University took home. 1st Place CHAPTER REPORT! *people open their eyes wide open* 1st Place with the COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT! *mumblings take over the room* CHAPTER OF THE YEAR!!!! *you can barely hear your neighbor due to the loud cheers* hahaha, I know.
Today I can truly say PRIDE is one of the best feelings in the world and I feel honored to be part of the Greatest chapter in the State of Florida, FIU FBLA-PBL. Did I say state of Florida??? I meant in the Entire freaking Country ^___^ hear that Top 20 business schools in the US? hell yeah, we'd kick ur ass any time..lol
Thank you all for allowing me to enjoy my life to it's fullest, YOU! make me!..HAPPY =D
