First Week of a Busy Semester, SBCC, Final Schedule




Hello everyone! I have just finished my first week at SBCC, and I confess it's going to be a busy semester. This is my schedule:

M/W: 9:35-10:55am (Survey of British Literature), 12:45-2:05pm (American Literature), and 3:00-5:05pm (Film Studies)
T/Th: 9:35-10:55am (Beginning Acting)
Online ( Education 101)

I am very fond of my two English classes, British and American Literature, but acting is might be my most challenging class I have this semester. I know weird to think that many pages of literature analysis is less difficult than acting. Okay I'm lying to myself all these classes are difficult. Luckily, there are a few familiar faces in each of my classes. It's pretty comforting, yet still it doesn't change my fear of public speaking, which will be debuted in my acting class. I just need to be more relaxed and drink two cups of "Sleepy Time" tea before acting class or maybe "Sleepytime Extra." This reminds me of energy drinks! Please make sure to be careful with those drinks! 

Well, I hope your first week was as fascinating as mine was :)

2014, Spring Semester, Winter Break


Hello... Welcome to 2014 and Spring Semester. If you're just tuning in to this blog now, welcome! My name is Kiki Reyes and I will be guiding you through your Spring Semester at Santa Barbara City College or giving you examples of how the student life is here at the number one community college in the nation. If you're thinking about going here and are indecisive about your decision, my advice to you is to come visit. You will fall in love at first sight.

If you've been tuning in from last semester, I hope everyone is enjoying their last two weeks of winter break. l've been using this time off to focus on things that matter to me which include spending time with my family and friends, my music, and my future plans for school. I have also been working a lot at the driving school I am currently employed at. Here's a few things I've done this break:

1. Sent in my transcripts for the universities I've applied to (Fall 2014).

2. Went hiking several times with my friends.

3. Delivered presents with my sister dressed as elves.


4. Rung in the Year New with my closest friends 

5. Reapplied to the Santa Barbara Scholarship Foundation (You still have until the 31st, this is only for Santa Barbara natives http://www.sbscholarship.org) and FAFSA (https://fafsa.ed.gov/)

~Update on College Acceptance: I have been admitted to CSU Channel Islands

I have already been on the SBCC Campus a few times and I've noticed some construction going on; They're making this school more beautiful than it already is. 

Well thanks for tuning in and I am looking forward to share my Spring Semester with you guys!
