What are you up to?

Well, as many of us might or might not know, the 109th congress is over. That means that ALL that was done during it will have to be done all over again in 2007.

But this post isnt really about congress or legislations, it is about wanting to reach out to our members. After all we are a community that is united by one single DREAM. I just wanted to know what has everyone been up to in the last month(s).

I haven't really been up to anything in particular. I'm just focused on having fun with friends during the weekends, since we all started an amateur soccer team. We play every Sunday. So far we have 1 win, 1 draw, and like 3 loses. Our team is not really winning or loosing, rather it is about having fun and spent time together like when we were in high school (yes, most of the teammates were with me in high school, so we have a lot of fun).

Last thanks giving was boring (like all thanks-giving dinners) I went to my aunt's and bored myself. People basically spent the whole time talking about their childhood memories and stuff like that.

But for Xmast I was thinking on going out to a dance club or something like that.

Well, that's pretty much what I have done lately, but I want to know how you (yes, you, the one on the other side of this screen) have been up to.

Yes, you can just drop a line or two, letting us know that you're still alive. Or you could write a whole essay, it doesn't matter. What matters is staying together, after all and all, this is also a support group

peace out.

I've been going to school, and doing working from home. I go to the gym in the mornings, school after, come home and work, and do whatever else I need to do at night.

There has not been much activity here lately, but I assure you guys that I still visit every day.


Let's see what comes of 2007.

hey everyone.Ive jus been busy with school.Just two more days until my first semester of college is over.College is hard but Im just glad Im gettig a chance to even go to college.ive been taking bellydance classes at my school every week and I love doing that.Now that winter break is coming up Im looking for a job.Its really hard to find one that is willing to pay me off the books.Paying for college has been really hard for my Dad who is also undocumented.I just want to help him out.

I've been busy with school. Tomorrow I take my last final... gotta brush up on stuff tonight. After that, I am going to pack up and leave Thursday night. It's going to be a long journey home on the train.

I have been trying to get experience in doing other thinsg since I cannot apply for most internships. Since I want to teach as a career, I have taught an ESL class this semester every Monday. The experience was great. I am definitely looking to have another class of my own this summer for three months.

For the holidays I am planning to chill, do some light reading for next semester, go out with old friends, and tutor my siblings at home. Nothing too stressful.

I hope everyone has a merry Christmas!

Well I graduated in May with a Bachelors degree in Biochemistry...I can't look for a job for obvious reasons so I've been mostly staying at home, trying to keep busy. I do some babysitting and a few other little jobs here and there. I try to go the gym a few times a week; its good to at least do something positive for your body and health. I hang out with friends and I like writing creatively- it calms me and keeps me busy. Anyway I'm looking into single courses I can take at a Community Collage by me just to keep me busier in the spring time.

Can I have a show of you dancing?

And swim19, why don't you let us read at least some paragraphs of your writting, I think it would be fun.

As many people here I've been busy working towards my degree.
Its been a very interesting semester. I got invited into a national engineering honor society, that was cool, we have our own office and all. Last week I got a nice fat raise at work, that was nice too. I've been busy doing some contract and freelance programming work as well. Maybe I can even afford all the skiing I plan to do this season. Come to think of it, however, my tuition bill is only a couple of weeks away and thats not gonna be good for my family's finances.

I've also been trying to get my mind of things by hanging out with friends. For the winter break I have grand plans, usually nothing works out the way you plan though.
I have to do some website work for my job, gotta feed the skiing addiction somehow... Maybe even visit the west coast this season, but I $doubt$ it. For New Years we rented a house with some friends for 5 days that should be a w e s o m e. Also... dont tell anyone... but my number one priority is to update this site as much as I can while I have a grain of free time. As I'm sure everyone has noticed I do very little for this site while I'm in school, aside from paying the bills and keeping active as much as I can.

nothing much just watching the game, drinking a Bud. J/K, just working, enjoying time with family and friends. I now have enough money to afford graduate school, it took me kind of a long time to save up, because of bills and other stuff. Now I just have to take the GRE I been studying for a couple of months now, and send my package to a couple of graduate schools. Hopefully I get accepted into one. If not I will save the money for something else. Happy holidays everyoneand let's go for it in 2007 I like High Five.

GOW125 congratulations hope you get accepted into the college of your choice.
juang remind me about the belly dance when I get better lol.
Swim19 do you write poetry love reading and writing poetry.
