Primarily stories about my life and thoughts. Be prepared for some pretty random stuff occasionally... I manage to keep my crazy inside most of the time, but at some point it will inevitably slip out.

Hello viewers and/or helpless victims of a misplaced click! Welcome to my blog, please stop and look around a bit. My name is Chelsea and I am a somewhat typical college student living life. I've created this account in order to share some of the random things I've done and tell stories (Anyone who knows me will tell you I talk-- perhaps too much-- to anyone and everyone and always have a story to tell). I think I talk too much, but thankfully in this setting you are not being coerced into listening to my ramblings, you may stop reading whenever you choose (though I hope you find me just intriguing enough to continue reading).
P.S. I've got a secret..... I am new to this! (As if you couldn't tell by my cookie cutter blog template) I have never before written a blog, but so many people keep saying I should, and provided I have the patience and the dedication to do this frequently, I think it will be really fun.
So anyway, please keep in mind that I am new to this, and cut me some slack as I get the hang of it. Oh and one more thing! If you don't like my blog for whatever reason, I am not forcing you to read it; no one is :) and I am who I am, so don't expect me to change if I get a little flak.

BORING
Also, I forgot to mention how my court trial went today. About 40 people's cases were dismissed due to their officer not showing up or other reasons, and there were only about 60 cases to start with that morning, so at least two thirds of the cases were dismissed before the trials began... I was not one of those lucky people however. I stood at the defendant's microphone and "cross-examined" my police officer/prosecutor, and then was found guilty. Sad face. I would be at peace with the decision except for one thing. I got flustered on the stand (my police officer was really intimidating, even in court he had an attitude) and forgot to do the one MAIN thing the attorney I consulted with told me was my only chance. I did ask the officer questions about his training and the service of his Lidar gunn (similar to a radar gun) just like I was supposed to, but then when he answered all my questions I forgot to ask him if he had the documents to prove his statements like I was supposed to. I had it written in my notes at least a half dozen times to ask to see the written documentation for all matters regarding the evidence, but I got so flustered I forgot and didn't even look down at my notes in front of me. I didn't even realize that I forgot that key step until I after I was already back out in the parking lot. I'm really frustrated with myself especially after writing that in my notes so many times. I guess it doesn't matter that much since what's done is done, but it still bugs me some, at least if he DID have all that paper work and had shown it to me I would know for sure that I had no chance of winning. Well anyway, if I'm ever in court again I hope to do a better job. I'm now on campus waiting for my class to start, in less than a half hour, and then I have work until 6:30 this evening which I'm not looking forward to.
In other more positive news, my boyfriend Max and I just celebrated our ten month anniversary this week. It wasn't much of a celebration due to all the homework and stress that we were each dealing with, but he did make delicious hot fudge sauce from scratch which we had over tasty ice cream before continuing with our studies for that day. His grandma's an amazing cook! (and artist) She and Max have this deal where she sends Max one recipe every week and he has to make it (he likes to cook and always wants to try new recipes which is AWESOME cuz I love to eat ^_^). So far all the recipes Max's grandma has sent him have been super tasty and I'm really excited for next week's installment.
Okay, now I should go. I need to return the laptop (my school loans out laptops to students for two hours at a time- free) and start walking to class, and I'd like to enjoy the day on the way as opposed to rushing at the last minute. I left my longboard today because it was really windy when I got here which makes boarding a drag, and also so that I wouldn't have to deal with how cumbersome it can be especially since I'll probably be getting a campus safety escort back to my car tonight (Max is outta town) and they are always on foot, so I'd have to carry it all the way back to my car after work anyway. Okay, well I will try to write something again soon, but no promises, because next week is midterms so I am still VERY busy and stressed despite my temporary respite.
Adios amigos!
Chelsea
