School started again! I was going to take chemistry and biology but many things got in the way... could not add, needed chemistry for biology and bla bla bla..Well after I sat in chemistry for 6 hours on the first day of school and talked to the professor after class I burst into tears.(after I left his office) The teacher would not add me and I was falling apart. I was trying to get into Davis as soon as possible and I already felt set back from not going to school last semester. I was quite angry that things were not working out my way. I went to the counselor to set up a plan instead of going home to cry. Well...the final decision after talking with her for 2 days and a couple of hours was to forget about Davis and go to Sac state. I was going to drop the horticulture thing. As i was picking out my classes in preparation for Sac state i stated to think about horticulture classes. I began to cry as I saw pest management, Plant Id, auto cad for landscapes and propagation. I cried to myself, "I want to be a horticulturist!" So I decided to take the classes that makes my heart sing. Here I am next to a Holly. I love learning new plants. Every week we have a quiz on new plants. On their name and cultural needs. I have never been so happy to do my homework. I have been having so much fun with my classes and I am glad that I am enjoying school so much. I dont think I would be saying the same about chemistry and biology.

So this picture does not really show how much my hair has grown as well as i would like it to, but it really has! I actually got the curling iron out on Sunday and flipped out my sides! It was amazing to actually attempt the womanly world of tools for beauty enhancement.
It is nice though to not have to do much with my hair. It pretty much is what it is.

Hey Alena-it is good to read your entries! I know you are, and have been going through a lot! Hey, I understand the whole "school-thing". It's tough. I've tried lots of career paths and have taken many different subjects in college. I was never totally fulfilled unless I was studying my true passion: MUSIC. So, I know it's tough!!!! But if you have a passion for a certain field of study-I say, "stick to it".
Love YOU!!!

Hi Alena! It is so good to hear again from you. Horticulture is fun and landscaping is one of my favorite thing. School is good if you're learning what you want. I'm missing school (not the tests), so I decided that I'll start to learn Italian, it must be fun. So Alena go for HORTICULTURE and enjoy it!
