New Year - New Blog Site

I would like to thank everyone who faithfully reads the Dominican University of California student blog. We've had a great time of it here using Google's Blogger platform as our publisher, but alas it is a new year and that always means changes.

This year's change is a brand new publishing platform! The Dominican Blog is now being hosted by Dominican University of California's very own website and platform. That means that means that the URL has been changed and this site will no longer be updated. Please visit http://www.dominican.edu/admissions/student-blogs.html in order to read what our 5 bloggers have to say.

Thank you Amanda, David, Brandon, Gretchen, and Monika for posting here and please come read what they have to say at our new site!

Winter break blues

So, apparently my services weren't needed at my previous job and for the past four weeks I've been brushing up on my sitting around skills. I'm now of the opinion that not doing anything for six weeks will drive anyone crazy. I mean, don't get me wrong a vacation is well deserved but now it just seems like its dragging on. I got a web-cam for Christmas which is really cool, now I can call home on the Internet, and talk to my girlfriend when she's at home. I got lots of books too, and or course the obligatory barrage of gift cards to various places.

Well, since we left school I have seen a few movies, and I've really cleaned my room, and did things usually associated with being very very bored.

Juno was my favorite movie of recent time. Atonement was so very good too; and No Country For Old Men was very very strange and I'm still not sure whether or not that I like it.
Basically break has been one long snooze fest of sleeping in and watching movies.
I cook a lot while I'm at home too, that's always nice.

I guess it seems weird that I want to go back so bad, its not that I don't like home, but school has really become home.

Well just a few more days left, before long I'll be packing up the car again and heading back up north, where I can get back into the groove of things.

Hope everyone reading this had a good break and a good beginning semester at school.
