CDC

Students:

As many of you saw first-hand, we were visited by members of our accrediting body this week. They left yesterday, and I’m happy to report that the visit went extremely well. They shared some good feedback on ways we can improve, but they also gave us a few compliments. They seemed especially impressed with all of you, particularly with the skills you are developing in your programs.

I would like to thank each and every one of you for the roles you played in contributing to this successful visit. What they witnessed in classrooms, along with the direct feedback you shared with them, helped shape their favorable impression of CDC.

I am extremely confident that we will secure another term of accreditation. It sometimes takes a while for these processes to play themselves out, so I expect we will have an answer by October at the very latest. You can be sure that I will share the good news with you the day I get it.

School was good today. In my marking and grading class I was given a Peeps bubble blower. For being the best. No because I was able to fit the shirt pieces together the best way. Now I have a rabbit bubble blower.
Stacy called me today. She wanted to go to the Beverly Center. It was fun. Got some jewelry at forever 21. Then we went in to Bloomingdale's. Some girls from benefit did a little make over for us. I think it worked, because some people at fhe noticed. That always can make you feel good. And make up always makes me feel good too.
Fhe was fun. We marked some Book of Mormons to hand out. I finished marking mine like a second before Autumn. Victory! Plus there was some other things to do. Not what I wanted to do.
Good news my portfolio is almost done. I hope my teacher likes it.

On a Sunday

Today was a good day.
Lets talk about it. I was able to talk to my wonderful roommate Amy. One of her friends came to visit her. It felt like forever. Whatever it's cool. Yet next time not so long. Back to my point. I had a good talk with her, and her relationship with the friend. I had some issues with the friend. As most of my family knows. Plus anyone who cared to ask me how things are. Basically I wanted to just vent and be done with it. Only things was that the friend was still there. Getting off topic again. Long thought short. Amy is great and has a better head on her than the friend.

Church was great. A friend from the USC ward visited. It was really nice. I always think I want a good friend in Los Angeles. Then I look around and I do. Hello dingo. It is just I need to reach out to the friends I have made here. Sure I love talking to Elizabeth. In fact I would every day. On Thursday I took Amy's friend to Planned Parent hood. Oddly enough it's on 3rd street promenade. Not the point, but Elizabeth called me when we where having lunch. I did not feel bad for answering because the friend answered ever call that she got.
I started to tell Elizabeth about the crush I have in the ward. And the friend thought I was talking to one of my sisters. I would say Elizabeth is right there at the level I tell Cassie things. So Yeah she is one of my sisters. Good thing for Jesus Christ and a Prophet or I would never have met her.
I think I have a LA friend that I would like to talk to at the level I have with Elizabeth.

So back to church. For the next two years we will be studying things Joseph Smith taught. Could this year get any better? Sunday school was great. My visiting teacher company taught the lesson. Sacrament was just fine. It was on missionary work. That's fine. I would love to do it more. The sisters in the ward are fun girls to be with. I was able to feed them last week. What a fun time. I hope felt the same way with me.

I talked to my Dad today. About some things. It has been a while since I talked to him. I would say more but why?

Cassie called me during Paulina's baptism. She was baptized before so I did not feel bad about taking the call. We talked about boys. So always gives me pointers that I never do. She is way more bold with boys then I am. As in wardstock just tell me.

Do you think this blog is long. Well I don't care.

As I said I went to a baptism tonight. Why not. She is the newest member. They need support. I need to know they are loved. I don't mind making people feel loved at all. Like my friend Leslie.
Oh so at institute. the teacher asked what do you think makes a good friend? I said someone that will call me. That's why I called Leslie. Well also because I know she would be up. Living in LA and all. on like Elizabeth who is married and like 3 hours different. There are lines I need to respect. I guess.
Here is the reason why I called Leslie. So am eating a brownie and my friend next to me had an apple. So a guy came up to us and asked my friend how many bits did she take. He had one with the apple he was eating. I thought it was really odd. but whatev. So he started to ask me how many bits do I think it would take him to eat it all. Not so odd right and funny. but the good part is coming. A girl wearing his coat came by. Stepped on his foot and the touched his side. Do you think she wanted me to know something??? I do. no problem not the guy I have a crush on. Still I had to tell someone. Just so you all know. He ate the whole thing in 8 bits. I mean the whole thing nothing to trough away. Yup!

Anything else??? Went over to Maggie's to watch the Oscars. It was fun. Why not. Getting a massage, Laughing, and talking story. Good times.

Yes that all happen on Sunday. I am sure there is more. Yes there is but only Elizabeth will know. Cassie already knows somethings. Leslie was surprised when I told her somethings I thought would be good to tell her.

In class

Yes I have class on Saturdays.
We just watched a movie on VHS. My teacher thought that made it old. Old like Mr. C.
Anyways, the movie was about runway shows. Basically how it has changed everything that goes on. The one thing I did like about the movie was when they talked about a model that would change her hair. Knew where to pose to get a good photo.
Plus my teacher said that Texas is going to be the next fashion place..... I don't know how I feel about that. I know Texas is suppose to have the next Disneyland. Why not fashion????

The joy of making fabrics.

not the colors on photoshop when I did it. odd!

Some fabric swatches. Do you like??????????? the colors are really bright. something to change.
