A trip to the bookstore costs nothing

Are you bored? Need something very good to read? Here's my suggestion to you: Into The Wild by Jon Krakauer. It is such a very good book. Believe me if you are the person, who considers himself/ herself a devoted reader, this book definitely will be referred by you as one of the best books you have ever read. It's been such a long time since my eyes were reading such a good read. I am telling you guys- read it. For your curiosity there is also a movie based on the book , which recently came out and I am also planning to see it. I have no time on my hands right now with my anthropology midterm coming up and stuff but maybe eventually I will get a chance to see it if not there is also a 100% possibility that i will turned out to be on DVD one day and also guys don't forget this Tuesday- October 30th- Spiderman 3 is coming out on DVD as well as Danielle Steel's Amazing Graces is released.

To Risca

Hi Risca,
You commented on my blog post recently. You weren't clear enough. What do you mean by "free midi'? I don't understand.

MEDICATIONS- SIDE EFFECTS (tell me about it!)

So, here I am. Back again the same day. Just got off from work. The weather isbeing a total shit. After work I had to go to the A & P to get frozen spinach (for my mom's friend Halloween party) and I also had to dropped off one of my friends from work. She such a cool person. Anyways, I just got off my doctor's blog and I just wanted to comment once again on the side effects of the medications. One time my sister had this weird rash. It was all over her body. So, she decided to take this medication for it. (Don't know how to spell it- starts with B, it is pretty well known around). So, after she has taken it she went off to sleep. When she woke up she started to get this very weird side effects. She was so dizzy, she couldn't even walk straight. So, because of her dizziness she even had to go to the hospital and get stitches, which means that she like fainted, maybe that's the wrong word to use because my sister was aware of that something was totally wrong with her. She just dropped (like people in the movies sometimes do). When she dropped she hit her head against her desk. So see, tell me about it- the weird side effects of the medications that they may have on you.

28 Weeks Later

I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone. It is just too gory and too messed up. I got it today and I don't think I am going to finish it. My dad probably is. It is too bloody for me. Even if you do wish to see this movie my best advice to you would be to please don't eat during watching this movie because there is a huge possibility you may throw up without even knowing when.

So, today I just had one class- College Writing. I don't like it. It is not my idea of a class when you have to read essays and write essays. It is very competitive for me because I suck at writing essays. First of all, English is my second language. We have another essay due next week. I have no idea how am I going to accomplish that. This blog is going to be short because I start my work at 4:30 and I still have to get something to eat. Off I go. Till next time, which probably will be this weekend.

Walking out of my life- October 26th

Today, October 26th, with just 5 thousand dollars in my pockets I decided to just walked out of my life forever. I decided that recently I got bored with my life. There is nothing interesting anymore for me to do. So, I decided to do something crazy for once in my life and just keep walking and walking until I reach my destination, which is the state of California where I always wanted to go. Unfortunately I don't own a car so, I guess I will just have to keep walking and walking until I see the famous mountain side with the drilled heads on it. There is also another option for me by taking an airplane but that's too far expensive for me If I wanna reach Cali with just 5 thousand dollars in my pockets. So, since I live in New Jersey and I have a lot of relatives and friends along the way I decided that it would be a very cool thing for me to do- just walking to California on my 2 small feet without using any transportation along the way even if I am capable of.

I decided to leave my house as early as possible. So, I probably would leave it around like 6 am in the morning. First days definitely are going to be very hard for me because I will have to get use to the idea of walking such very long distances. My best friend Natalie lives in Colorado, so probably it would like take me first few months to reach her. I haven't seen her in ages. We used to be best friends since like first grade. Recently she got happily married and moved to Colorado with her husband and his family. They are all love living in the west.

What sucks about this whole thing is that I haven't got a laptop so how am I going to go online and check news. By the way I am a news freak lol. I guess I will just have to ask people along the way how are the things going out in the world. Yesterday I dropped my cell phone by mistake into a pothole (there was a construction work and unfortunately it was opened all the way). So, I guess I cannot even call anybody. I cannot even call my best friend when I am planning to reach Colorado. I have no idea what I am going to do. I know that I can get one, but I don't want to spend my money on things such as a cell phone for example because along the way I also have to pay for food and for hotel rooms if I don't want to sleep outsider, and by the way it would very hard for me to pay my cell phone bills.

So, I am also done packing. I am just taking a little backpack with me so, I don't have to carry a lot of stuff around with me. My family thinks I am nuts to do a thing like that, but they don't care anymore since my decision is final. They were trying to change my mind for like 2 months already but I just turned off my ears every single time they wanted to talk about it. I mean it is my own life. It is not like they are not going to see me anymore. Once I get a job and settle down anyplace in California I am sure I will not forget to invite them.

I ALWAYS WANTED TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT IN MY LIFE. I JUST WANTED TO GO TO CALIFORNIA. I THINK THAT I AM DESTINED TO JUST LIVE THERE. SINCE I WAS LITTLE I WAS ALWAYS DREAMING OF ONE DAY OF JUST MOVING TO THE WEST COAST AND STARTING A WHOLE NEW LIFE OUT THERE. WHO KNOWS MAYBE EVENTUALLY I WILL FIND MY OTHER HALF- MY BOYFRIEND AND I WILL HAPPILY GET MARRIED OR WHO KNOWS MAYBE I WILL START MY OWN BUSINESS OR SOMETHING. I JUST WANT TO CHANGE MY LIFE. I DON'T EVEN CARE ANYMORE HOW AM I GOING TO DO IT, BUT I AM SURE 100 % THAT I WILL DO IT. WHAT ELSE CAN I TELL YOU THAT ONE DAY I JUST WOKE UP AND SAID TO MYSELF OK, KAROLINA DO TOMORROW, OCTOBER 26 TH YOU ARE JUST WALKING OUT OF YOUR LIFE . YOU ARE DEFINITELY ARE GOING TO WALK TO CALI NO MATTER HOW LONG IT IS GOING TO TAKE ME.

November: I will spend Thanksgiving with my Aunt and Uncle, who live in Virginia
December: I will spend Christmas probably with my cousin Megan in South Carolina.
April: I will spend Easter holidays probably somewhere along the way.
June or July: Planning on reaching my best friend Natalie in Colorado (or even later along the way)




*** ANYONE WHO IS READING THIS BLOG POST AND IS NOT IN MY REDING CLASS AT MSU, MY APOLOGIES IF YOU THINK ALL OF IT IS TRUE. IT IS JUST AN ASSIGNMENT FOR MY CLASS***

Hot Zone

After reading Hot Zone by Richard Preston, I found it to be a very interesting book. It is a very good read. Some parts were a little gory. For example, when I got to the part when the guy was on the plane I thought that I am going to throw up. Richard Preston shoudn't make that part of the book so detailed. We really don't need to know that, but for the most part the book itself was very good. Now in class, we are going to read Into the Wild. Probably this book will turn out not to be so gory, but rather adventurous (not sure if I spelled that right). Right now I am reading this book from my library. I also found another book in the library by Peter Abrahams that I still haven't read yet. Peter Abrahams rocks. Try reading The Tutor by this guy. It is really exciting. There is so many good books. I think that at some point I should just do at least one blog and post in it the list of the "sexy"that I really felt in love with.

Ok, so before I go to school because I am still in my jammies lol, I just wanted to add a few words. I know that Ihaven't been to my blog recently. The answer to that is that I have been very busy. I was always thinking og changing this blog a little. I have to look for another cool template because this was one for me got a little boring. I also made myself promise to write in my blog a little more. I have a midterm coming up November 6th. I am thinking about it everyday. I am like shaking under my skin. The midterm is based on the anthropology of Latin America and the Caribbean and my professor wants to do it on nine Chapters. Yes, I found it to be scary and the chapters are not like 2 pages long. There is so many freakin' details. If I pass this midterm I will feel like I just have gone to heaven. Really, when you have something like that coming up you just have all these thoughts going around your brain. I already passed my Linguistics Course midterm, which was not that hard because it was all grammar and rules stuff but thing baby that's coming. Thank god it was postponed for another week. Omg. Also, my music instructor ( have no idea if he is a professor or doctor, whatever) announced to our class to be prepared for a big test on all the chapters and guess what we just did 10 of them. I hate this class. I mean I don't pla any instrument so for me it is you know like confusing. Ok then gotta go because I want to leave the house early even if my classes start in the afternoon because of the New Recreational Center , MSU doesn't have that much parking space available anymore. They just took away 400 parking spots. That's what I read in Montlclarion 2 weeks ago. Ok ciao! Be back soon! Enjoy reading about my stressing and miserable life ...

CDC project- enjoy everybody!

Directors of the CDC

There are two victims, who are currently sick. One is Alice, who is a grandmother from Newark. The second victim is Charles, who is a regular commuter on the same NJ Transit train. Alice, the grandmother, at first starts ti feel exhausted. It takes only 24 hours for her to feel disoriented. Her retinas appeared to be red. She also has nosebleeds and a persistent cough that never stops. At the hospital, she is diagnosed with an unidentified viral infection, impervious to antibiotics; Charles, the second victim, doesn’t just become sick suddenly like Alice did. He has been sick for more than a week. He has too much work on his hands, so he couldn’t just leave and go to the hospital. He starts to bleed from his nose as well as his mouth. The doctors at the hospital have the difficulty of stopping his blood. There just this huge, red puddle of it on the floor.
What is interesting is that Alice’s daughter didn’t get exposed, but only Charles’s wife. She has begun coughing as soon as her husband is brought up to the hospital where she is employed.
We are probably looking at the Ebola. The morality percentages with this virus are very high. It is very contagious.
I think to prevent others from being exposed the best thing to do it would be to put them up in a quarantine. All people in the group would be quarantined, would be the ones who were recently exposed, so then just to keep them away from others so there wouldn’t be more sick people than there already are. I think that’s the best way to go about it.
I would take time with the vaccine. I mean just giving vaccine to the people would be very risky. In this case I wouldn’t want to risk millions of lives. I am definitely just not going to leave people with the virus. There always has to be done something.
What should be done about the people who have been exposed but not yet shown symptoms I think that one of the best ways to go about is first wait if they are not going to have any symptoms at all in like a few days there is a great possibility that they didn’t catch that so they would probably have to just go on living.
The best course of action is a quarantine for all these people who were exposed and are showing with symptoms. I think that’s the best way to go about it, so that’s why the plan should be followed. I mean if you are just going to live these people just like that, everybody will sooner or later die and you know what it’s going to be your fault because you just didn’t do nothing about it, so it’s better to do something than having regrets later on for the rest of your life.
It is just ridiculous to just wipe out an entire human population just because it has been exposed!

Currently Reading: Everyone worth Knowing by Lauren Weisberger (the author of Devil Wears Prada) ;-)

D

Getting a D on the paper can be very frustrating, but anyways that was my first paper. I am very upset about it. It feels like my life is over. Right now I am working on my next paper for Tuesday. I hope it will be much better. I suck at writing. I mean the same problem like haunts me all over again. I always want to succeed at things, if not I am like in the Great Depression.

Homework assignment for mon 11/15

The worst case scenario of virus if virus outbreak would occur would be the case where almost everybody is wiped out. The whole population. Almost nothing can be done. What I would do in this case was to put all the people in the quarantine who came in the contact with the virus at some point or are being affected with it. I think that's the only way to go with it. I mean what else can be possible done. There is no cure for it. It just comes fast and leaves fast. I think that would be one of the best solutions to deal with it. Obviously, no one is going to stand there in the middle of it and stare.

what a day

Can you believe ending class at 5:15 pm and arriving home at 6:30 pm? I had to take a huge detour to get to my house without knowing where I was going. They closed Route 46 East, so I had to first go to Clifton, turn on the Main Ave. Then for some reason I ended up in Paterson, then I got on Route 80 and ended up in Saddle Brook, which I was happy because it is like the next town over then finally I arrived in Lodi, which is where I live. I was so scared because it was raining so hard and I had no idea where I was going. I was just about to turn off my car and cry or something but I finally realized I am a big girl in just four months I will turn 20 and this isn't like me. So, anyways Hot Zone is kind of getting into me like right now near the ending because there is a filovirus going aroud in the UNITED STATES! It is very interesting how everything will turn up but I guess I will figure out fortunatly this weekend.

Yes, I laos think books are kind of "sexy."

got home safely

Having a 5:30 pm can have its own consequences. When I started to drive home I thought that I am not going to make it. The weather was so horrible that I barely saw through my windshield and the wipers were going crazy. Thank god, the class ended 30 minutes before because if it did I would probably have to sleepover. I hate driving in the inclement weather. Two times my cars like kind of slided. I was scared to death. I was like omg what about if I never get home, but fortunately I did lol you can see of my blog post here. So, I had my first midterm today, which wasn't hard. Took me an hour to complete. Fiveteen minutes before the time was up. The worst midterm that is coming is the one on October 30rd- my anthro class. Omg, how are we going to survive it. Maybe a study group? Who the hell knows? Ok bye off to sleep. Gotta wake up early tomorrow if I still want to read crap for the music class, which I am like lost in.

biowarfare

The United States is not ready to handle it as well as the terrorism. It would be horrible. Imagine someone coming from Africa and bringing one of the viruses. People would start to drop like flies. I think that it is the worst thing that can ever happen in the world. It would be just too much for them to deal with it. That's my opinion. So, I pray that it never happens not only in the US, but all around the world. Sorry, it is too short, but I have a midterm on Tuesday and i am basically studying my brains out. ;-) Good luck whoever has one too.

THINGS TO DO:
1) Study for midterm
2) Go to the mall and have fun with my bestfriend (she came home this weekend from Rutgers)
3) Do my homework
4) Study more for the midterm
5) Get some sleep done
6) Go to work (clean the store)
7) Study more for the midterm
8) Revise my paper(final paper)
9) Study more for the midterm
10) If have time get to watch Accepted
11) if have some more extra time on my hands- catch up on my reading (Unforgettable)
12) read Hot Zone- guess what happens next? probably like another virus will come to place ...
13) Study more for the midterm

*** So whoever, just read this, do you get it? My entire life right now revolves all around one thing that starts with the letter S (consonant) - studying and studying and studying till I like I don't know kill myself, or burn my bra lol ( hahahaha, like the kid commented on the web) yea right, I actually need my bras, because if I don't wear them oh please I just don't feel like a woman anymore - ok, I shouldn't just posted here oh well .... hahaha lolz

my dad texted me today - wow?!

So, went to my college writing class. It was kind of fun. Got to talk about gay marriages. Omg, shit I have so much to do. I have a midterm this tuesday. So tuesday I also have to revise my paper, which has like professor comments all over the place. I studied for my midterm today. Omg, what an accomplishment to me- just finished studying chapter 1 lol that has like 5 pages and I moved on to the chapter 2, but so what I have to know like 4 chapters. This is for Grammar Class. I have it with this professor Dr. Freed (yikes- some of you probably know what I mean if you had her). Yea, right like I better burn my bra than have my cell phone to ring in her class lol whoever wrote that stuff on ratemyprofessors dot com is crazy. She is actually a very interesting and cool person if you do your work lol. Probably all these people who wrote these comments are just wackos who didn't do thir shit and stuff. So I planned that on sunday I try to do my reading homework, revise my paper (maybe lol) and study and study more for the midterm. Today my aunt came over and my mom goes like Karolina never studies. Yea right, who spends like hours in the library in her leisure time. Omg this huge major thing happened today - MY DAD TEXTED ME and he was the one that said texting is useless, NOT- TEXTING IS FUN!!!!

a day like any others

So, today wasn't special. I went to my music class. Took a quiz. I was like the nervous wreck. My first college quiz and what makes it worse- a listening quiz. October 9th I have my very first midterm. Grammar midterm. Simple stuff. Not that hard, but what do you know got to study. Tomorrow I have only two classes. What sucks is that they are the afternoon ones. Probably between classes will eat something like a caesar wrap and just study or something. Tomorrow get to wake up early. Finish the rest of my reading homework. I'm done with my Hot Zone reading assignment. Oh gosh, it was disgusting using the same needles. Are they kidding? They had like 5 needles and there was hundreds of people. That was just nasty. Imagine just being a patient and you are not even sure if that's your very last day on Earth. So, I am about to take a shower now. The week is almost over. Didn't get to work today because my manager kinda messed up my thing. Forgot that I am a college student:) So off to go bye

I'm back again

It's been so long since I logged in here. I was kind of busy. Today I had so far two classes and I am about to leave for my third class of the day in few minutes. Yesterday I had a fight with my dad. I know I was right he was wrong. I just had a little problem with my debit card. So he told me to call them and I did call them but it is just like a machine talking to you press this and that blah blah blah. He started yelling that you have to do it over the phone or online so I was like yeah who cares. So today I went to the bank and I told them about my problem and guess what they solved it for me and I am happy.

So, today I finished reading Summer Island by Kristin Hannah. It is such a good book. It teaches you a lot of good lessons. Kristin Hannah is such a good author. Omg the Distant Shores by her rocks. It was an unbeliavable such a good book. Now I am about to move on to Unforgettable by Cecily von Ziegesar (the author of the gossip girl series) and guess what tomorrow October 2nd her newest gossip girl book is coming out (prequel), but unfortunately I don't have time tomorrow to get it. That sucks. So I have to go now because I am going to have a problem finding parking spot, which is very common at MSU.
