1st World Problems

  Although it's awful to think of how true that hashtag is, it's also hilariously sad, and literally my life these past few months.... (-.\)
  I had originally planned (as always) to keep up with my blogging once summer was over. I even had specific topics ready for me to post about; however, it just so happened that my life become chock-full of "1st World Problems."
  A lot of the problems, even though they seem ridiculously childish on the surface, turned out to just create stress all over my life. The first problem that arose: Financial Aid. Yes, my mother completed everything only 2weeks before school starting, BUT I should have it by now! So why don't I?? Because the government, and whoever runs the Federal Financial Aid Department, decided that they just had to select me out of the thousands of students at my school to go through an extra "verification process!" Apparently, it's a process that 1/3 students are selected for, and I just happened to be the lucky winner! So, basically, I get to wait double the amount of time to recieve absolutely any financial aid from my school. But, don't worry, American Government, I totally don't mind having Zero Dollars to my name every single day, living paycheck to paycheck, asking family members to borrow thousands of dollars to pay off school, begging my apartment complex for extensions, or even having to donate plasma twice a-week just so I can buy toilet paper and cat food. Nope. Absolutely no problem... I'm just fortunate enough to work at Subway- at least I know what I'll be having for breakfast, lunch, and dinner everyday! #1stWorldProblems
  The next biggest issue that came to be since school started was my apartment having NO INTERNET. You never realize how much you love something till it's gone, and that is definitely what happened after I moved into my apartment! Inorder to get internet, we had to purchase an ethernet cable and connect directly to the wall (which is really dumb given technology these days, honestly!) and, obviously, I didn't have the money to do so! After my 1st paycheck- I got one! Too bad my poor Macbook, being as old as it is, absolutely refused to connect! I was so depressed! The only times I could use the internet was when I was either at work or on-campus and once I was on, I was glued to my phone. It's sad, but I'm actually not super surprised with how badly addicted I am to the internet. Actually, it's more that I'm addicted to Social Media and NETFLIX, to be honest. And so, this problem was not remedied until I had been moved in for a month and a half when I found a Wi-Fi Reciever for cheap! Apparently, my computer only likes to connect to Wi-Fi Internet, so now I can be connected to the world!! Ok, it sounds ridiculous, but it wasn't just that I couldn't Tweet for a little over a month, because I had no internet, I also couldn't do my homework or check my emails! In today's society, where schools and teachers are all about technology and online communications, a student must be able to have internet access at all times! It's sad, but true! During this time when I had no connection to the internet world, I would stay after at work till 3-4AM just doing internet, and STILL have to get up for classes in the morning... It really sucked... #1stWorldProblems
  Now add all that up along with work almost everyday &&& 19credit hours at school- you can see why I've been a bit out of touch and extremely stressed out! Since returning to Denton, life has been extremely difficult, which really sucks since it's my Senior Year... But thankfully, things are slowly starting to get better. Since these are all 1st World Problems, I know that I can get through this, and that's what keeps me going. As long as I keep smiling and doing my best, all the pieces will fall into place... eventually! (^-^) #JustKeepSwimming

School, school, school...

Fret not, Blogger, I haven't forgotten about you! 

  Friday is Valentine's Day, meaning it's been nearly 2weeks since my last post- oh no! Haha, I've become immensely busy with a combination of school, building my Herbalife business, working on my Level 10 Results, Personal Development, and just more and more school. It's just been crazy! 

  First off, like I said: this Friday is Valentine's Day!! I love this holiday because I always get sweets from my friends & family, so I'm actually pretty excited! No, I don't have a Valentine, and I honestly have never cared, or even, worried about being with a significant other on this holiday! I always think it's funny when girls get depressed over being single around this time- like, who really cares?? I don't know about everyone else, but it's just another Friday to me, which means I have school & Fit Camp- The End. 

 And speaking of Valentine's Day... at the end of the last post I mentioned about my having my 1st ever date? Ya, well, although I actually plan on posting more about that- update- nothing happened. Lisette is still single, and THANK GOD. I don't know if I'm just "not ready" to be in a relationship, or whatever, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that I just DON'T HAVE THE TIME. Anyhoos, I'll be posting more about that later, but for now John and I are just friends; or rather, he just Facebook stalks me while I ignore him. But it's not like I want to be rude or anything, I ignore most people just because I am so BUSY, so it's actually the same for everyone! 

  Now to the core of this Post: School. So, I've been in classes for a month now, and so far it seems to be one of my easiest semesters! I am taking 1 Theatre Class (Theatre History), Advanced Japanese, American Government, History, and Stars and Universe. The hardest class, like always, is Japanese. Most time-consuming class, along with Japanese, is definitely Astronomy, but that's just because it has a lab component- but I love Astronomy, so it's not bad. Besides that, the other classes are super easy because all of the assignments are Online- my favorite! Haha, so I love them because I get do my work whenever I feel like it! I'm crossing my fingers this semester that I'll be able to possibly get straight A's??? I mean, it would be really nice. 

  Last semester, during the meeting with my Theatre Advisor, I came to the shocking realization that I'm almost done with college!! I can't get that out of my mind. In a year from now, I'll be in the middle of my LAST semester- boy does time fly! Well, thanks to that realization, I've had to start seriously thinking about what I want to do after college, and I'm still not totally sure... I absolutely want to attend Disney College, though. That's the plan: Graduate College Spring 2015 and then do Disney College Fall 2015, but that's as far as I've gotten... It's so difficult to decide what I want to do! Besides my Herbalife, I don't know. Do I want to stay in Texas??? Do I want to try my luck in CALIFORNIA??? What about JAPAN? I just don't know. I have so many options sitting in front of me and I don't know which to pick. Thankfully, I still have at least SOME time to decide...

   That's it for this post. I may have more free time this week/weekend to put up more posts, not to mention I have so much to talk about! I mean, a LOT- from my birthday, to youtube channels, my Herbalife biz, FROZEN, and especially my shows! SO- Stay Tuned! 

PS- Since I haven't posted any pictures in a while, here's one of me & my Pooh. ((teehee))

Update...

  Well, it's nearly the end of January and the last actual post I made was, what, around Halloween time?? Wow, it's been a while. I guess a quick update is in order??

  First off- I actually DID complete my 31days of Halloween Horror Movie Challenge, I just never found the time to complete my posts! Who knows? Maybe I'll finish them sometime... The last major series I watched was the Ju-On & Grudge movies, which, by the way, were absolutely TERRIFYING! And then I completed the challenge by watching other movies like, Hocus Pocus and The Nightmare Before Christmas! On actual Halloween Day I dressed up, as Pooh Bear of course, went to class, hung out with friends, then returned to my room where I took a a fantastic 5hour nap! 

  Throughout the month of November I mostly killed myself by working my Herbalife products, working the business a bit, jumping through hoops to find a ride home, and getting ready for finals. It was a very, VERY hectic month, but everything worked out. As for my Herbalife (which will have a more in-depth post very soon), I haven't jumped levels to Supervisor yet, buuuuut, I've had amazing results! In less than 2months, I lost nearly 15lbs &&&& over 30inches off my entire body!!! I couldn't believe it!! Actually, I didn't believe it until I saw a before & after picture of myself! It's so crazy how amazing I feel everyday & after seeing these major results, I plan to kill it before Spring Break hits!! 

  Finally, we had reached the end of the year and everything was happening all at once! Finals came and went, and I did fine. I was immensely overly-stressed with life, so I honestly went into every exam with a "FUUUUUUUU-" attitude. (Totally serious, by the way). Then I returned home, where stress-levels continued to be stretched to the limit! Let's see, I got home on the 17th, and my Grandparents arrived on the 21st. Translation, everyday leading up to the 21st was spent cleaning the house and attempting to keep the peace within the household. Don't get me wrong- I absolutely love my family, and I would never trade any of them, but family is family, and that's all I have to say on the matter... And so the holidays were among us: I spent most of my time split into spending time with Grandma (she refused to leave the house, ever), running errands with Grandpa (he always wanted company for trips to the store, yay, me...), playing games with Nicky (he ended up grounding himself just before the holiday break due to grades, so this was a bit difficult), babysitting every now-and-then, and finally getting to see all of my best friends. I also spent everyday doing my best to "eat clean & healthy," but failed epically. Christmas was a ton of fun, and so was New Years, but the best was my birthday! This year (last year) I turned 21, a very special number. For more than a week all I was basically allowed to drink was alcoholic beverages! It was horrible!! Haha, but I had a great time with everyone. I'll have to make a more detailed post about my birthday later.

  Before we knew it, it was the new year! On the 1st, I hung out with friends, and on the 2nd I was on a plane to California! Honestly, my days in California are usually my most relaxing of any holiday, mainly because I'm usually just lazying about in my pajamas all day, playing video games, or just hanging out with my dad! They hardly ever make me actually DO anything, which makes for a great break for me since I am always on-the-go! The night I landed I was surprised with my new car: a cute bright blue Nissan Versa Note! She's a 2014 & her name's Ariel (teehee). I love her, and it is so great to have a car again! Now I'm not just stuck! Anyway, I worked a couple days with Jenny, and about a week later, Dad & I were road tripping back to Texas! We drove Ariel from Chino, California to El Paso in one day; the next morning we stopped into Odessa to visit our newest family member, Emma, who was barely a week old; and then made our way home to San Antonio! We had one day of break, then early (like, 4AM early) we were on the road again. I dropped Dad off at the Austin airport, and made the rest of the return trip to Denton alone. It was strange because there was no traffic and the sun had risen and I was already at the school. So, let's just say, Ariel got herself a good workout!

  And here we are, a week ago school started and I decided to jump headfirst into Fit Camps (bad idea). I'm helping with at NTXNutrition now and with Fit Camps every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I'm only taking 15hours this semester, but Crackin' Up meetings should be starting soon, so that'll be taking up time, along with my Herbalife. Besides all of this, some very interesting events have arisen... Hint, hint: I will be kinda going on my first ever "date" tomorrow afternoon...! (O_O)

  I don't know what I'm exactly supposed to be feeling about everything right now, but I guess I'll have more to post about tomorrow???? Till then! 

Sincerely Yours, 

Lisette Monique Diaz

doesn't mean our Inner Child is gone!

The first person I saw in costume: Superman!

Poor guy, his bike had broken down...
