So today was kind of a big deal...
Today at Fullerton College there was an awards sports banquet in the gym. So not knowing that I was receiving anything, I attended this banquet and soon noticed that my name was in the program. My mentors Juan and Lisa nominated me for the Bill Chambers Athletic Training award this year and I got it! It was a huge honor! This is something that I will never forget and something that really marks a turning point in my young life. I am only a freshmen, just ending my freshman year technically, and I am already winning awards. That is pretty exciting. I just cant stop smiling. There were a couple of sporadic tears in there, but what can you say, Im a women.
Anyways besides my math test that I took earlier in the day before all of this madness, that I think I failed, today was a pretty awesome day. Definitely one for the record books :)

2nd to last post (I believe)
So tonight I am up late and will be up much later working on, yet again, this stupid speech homework. The class is almost over but it just keeps getting harder. Right now im doing like an 8 page outline on the right to retain collective bargaining. What do I know about collective bargaining?! I mean I know about it but not enough to give a 10min speech on. Its not even something fun to learn about. Its just annoying because all I am talking about is how our nation is in debt and more debt and how cutting collective bargaining rights will no fix it. DUMB! I have a B in speech right now, and with the amount of work I put in to this class I definitely deserve and A. also, DUMB!
I will be starting my last english essay this weekend. Im pretty excited because my topic has a lot of ares to explore and learn from. I dont have health class for a week and a half, thats exciting! I have learned to like my math teacher after almost 15 weeks :). Very nervous about my Philosophy research paper that I will get back tomorrow; fingers crossed. and.... yep I think that about covers it.
Alright well until next week...

Surgery Viewing!
So tomorrow I get to go observe and view a surgery. In the surgical room! Right next to the surgeon! Im so excited!
I work with the baseball team at Fullerton College and one of our catchers got hurt a couple of weeks ago. It turns out that he tore his meniscus and needs surgery to be repaired. So this is where I come in :) Tomorrow at 7am will get to observe my first surgery of many (hopefully).
Speaking of baseball, the season is almost over! One more away game tomorrow and they are done. This is kind of exciting but also kind of sad. Exciting because it means less work for me and more time to study. Sad because I will miss being around these baseball boys... their pretty funny in the dugout.
Alright well its 12am and I still have to take a shower and get ready for tomorrow... got to get up at 5 for my big surgery :) Can you tell im excited? Alright night!!

Spring Break
So after tomorrow I officially start spring break! Thank God!! I have been so busy and stressed lately that I need a break... oh but wait, I don't really get a break since my speech teacher decided to give us enough homework to fill the entire break. Really dislike him! Oh well, ill make it work.
So im starting off my break with a weekend in vegas. Sounds fun, but dont get to excited. One im not even 21. Two, its for an Athletic Training convention; so its more work related. Still fun though to get away from things for awhile.
Other then that I just want to relax and maybe get some tanning in. I hope its warm!

Thats about all I have to say today... Hope everyone has a great spring break!

RANDOM
So just about one more week till spring break, I cant wait!! That is all that is on my mind lately. It's been really hard to focus and stay on top of my school work :/ Oh well....
My last post I stated that I was going to do a liver detox... yeah, never did it lol. I want out and bought all the stuff and was super motivated but then it cam time to do it and I just had no more motivation. Its ok though, I still ate all the healthy food I bought just not as specifically as I was supposed to.
I enter a video contest to promote the profession of Athletic Training about 2 weeks ago, and I found out this week that I won!! Its pretty exciting. I am going to get recognized at this huge Athletic Training convention seminar thing in Las Vegas over spring break. Lots of "big" people in the profession will be there so hopefully it will be beneficial :) Fullerton college also put me in the President's Weekly! Crazy stuff. You can search Kayla Gonzalez on youtube if you want. It should pop right up. Hope you enjoy :)
Alright im going to bed! Sleep has really been getting the best of me lately :/ not a good thing.
BYE!!

3 days
So I am about to embark on a 3 day liver cleanse detox. Shoot me now! I have done this detox before in the past and it is not fun, but the results are amazing! The first time it came out in print it was said that you could loose up to 10 pounds in the 3 days. Well its true! Depending on your body type and how strict you are about it you can deff loose a good amount of weight in just 3 days. Now this detox is not supposed to be done and then after the 3 days you can just start eating junk again. That would be a lot of stress on the bodies organs. This detox is to help cleanse the body and give it a boost for a new style of eating habits. In other words if you are going to start eating healthy start off by doing this cleanse for 3 days.
So anyways Im going to start on sunday. The first day is all liquids and then the second and third day is a strict diet of specific foods. Dont worry folks it is nothing harmful or dangerous. I wont be starving myself or keeping my body from the nutrients it needs lol. Just a good way to have a healthier body :)
Let the journey begin!

Birthdays!
What is a birthday?
Yes it is the day that you came into the world, and yes it is the day that your parents saw you for the first time, but is there something more to it?
I think that a birthday is a more personalized new years day. On new years day we celebrate the start of a new year and we look back on our mistakes and accomplishments and we try to make our life better for the upcoming year. Well technically new years does not represent a new year of life unless your birthday is on January 1st. ( Do you get what Im trying to say) Say you were born on December 16th, well when new years rolls around on January 1st and you are supposed to celebrate a new year, you are technically not celebrating a new year because you have only been alive for less then a month. On your birthday you are celebrating the birth of another year. This is the true date in which you should reflect on what you have accomplished in the past year of your life. This is the date where you can distinguish your old self from you new.
This is why birthdays are so special. New years is the celebration of a new year for everyone in the world, but a birthday is the celebration of new year for just you! There is a date and time for everyone that can specifically represent that persons first day of their own year. Every celebration of this date symbolizes a new you and a chance to be a better person then you were the year before.
P.S. My birthday is Wednesday 3/16 :)
