Mid-term Week Coming Up

So midterm week is coming up. All i can think about is how stress I am going to be. I look at my brothers and sisters and see how they are ready for spring break and I just cannot wait. I been studying for my math midterm and also been working on my essays for history and English. It is making me not able to think straight that I forgot to write at least two blogs this week so I am going to blog four times this week to get back on track. How many of you forgot to blog at least two times this week? :) Before this weekend hit, I planned to study all week but somehow I rarely studied. Instead of studying, I spend most of my time either playing basketball or watch some boys meets world. I threw some poker online playing and some glee here and there. But most importantly, I been on facebook. I spend only four to five hours study the past two days so I have to start tomorrow morning and hopefully study until Monday. If anyone has tips on how to stay focus on studying, please feel free to share. Other than that, I need to start studying soon and wish me luck. :)

Places to go to Kill Time

Have you ever had a hard time finding out where to go to kill time and at the same time have fun? A place not like chucke cheese because it is so childish or dave and busters where its more for adults only? I think I found the right place for you. A place with everything chucke cheese has and dave and busters have combined and much more such as all you can eat buffet, unlimited karaoke with updated songs, and most importantly, the biggest laser tagging arena. The name of this place is called Endless Food & Fun (EFF) located on Edinger and Gothard Ave. This place just opened and its prices are way too cheap comparing to other places with laser tagging, karaoke, arcade games, and sport rooms. Anyone who wants to go, just contact me for more information. :)
