End Of My First Year!

I can safely say that I made it out alive through my first year of college. It was a hard first year because I learned a lot of life experiences, such as, never date someone that lives in the same building then you, because that just starts a lot of drama. Your first semester you should never stock up on 17 credit hours with 2 labs, because you are doom to fail. Also the one thing that is your best advantage to college is to meet new people, because those will be the friends that will help you get through your college career. Ball State made my life a living hell this first year, but it also made me stronger as a person and as a student. Next year will be better for me with a year done and gone, but I hope that next year brings more friends and less of the growing up factor. =]

2 MORE WEEKS!!!

Wow, I looked at my calendar today and saw that I only have two more weeks left of my Freshman year in college. It has gone by super fast, but at the same time its been really stressful. This week so far has given me a major headache with all of the assignments that I have to make sure are done within the time period I have left of school. Plus on top of all that I am worried about some of my finals, because I want to do well in the classes that I am bored-lined in. It's just all a mess right now in school and I feel like Im not going to make it through. I guess all I can hope for is to make sure my work is done and study my butt off for my finals! Uggghhhhhh...This is so stressful! =( 

BLOGOSPHERE ESSAY!

This is actually the first blog that I have ever had in my entire life. I would have to say that my blogs design shows and tells you a lot about my individual personality and what I love the most. As you can see my blog design is very brightly colored in pinks, purples, teals, and yellows. I love bright colors because it makes people have a more positive outlook on life and it just makes others think of summer, which can be relaxing. That's how I wanted my blog to be viewed at by my readers, because no one wants to see just a plain blog or a blog that is not going to catch their eye. That's why my blog is wild and really out there. My blog also shows a lot about college life and a little bit about mine life and the issues that make my life happy or not great at all. I guess its like my own personal stress reliever, because I put my feeling out there for others to read and hopefully be interested in, and to relate their own personal life to.

               The concept of my blog is very simple, I enjoy talking about issues in my life that many or most people know a lot or feel a lot about. I tried to make it serious but at the same time it was a little bit humorous, and I hope that is the reaction that other readers receive. I loved to write about fun stuff that happened in my life that readers could relate to and not so much fun stuff that they could also maybe relate to. I guess you could say that I have a typical teenage girl blog that talks a little about everything, but I don’t have a blog that talks just about girl drama and other such issues.  

              If I had to choose my best post out of my blog I would have to say it would be my absolute first blog, because it really made readers think about their future and how they want to live it and how the future is theirs. My thought on the blogosphere is a great one! I love writing my thoughts on my own personal web journal. I believe its fun and that everyone should experience their own personal Internet journal! The blogosphere opened my eyes to the way I not only write, but the way other people think about my writings and comment on them. Looking at other peoples blogs in the class and then going on the Internet and finding other blogs on different sites is just not the same atmosphere to me. I feel like the blogs done this semester in class are truly creative and are not like most of the other blogs out there. The blogosphere is a whole new world and I’m thrilled that I had a chance to be apart of that! I can actually say that I will continue to write on the blog even after the class is over with.

 

 

Bowling Is OVER!!!

This week/weekend the BSU team competed in Nationals in Rockford, IL. We didn't do so hot on the first day but that day really didn't matter much, because it was just the qualifying round. However, the next day we went in with all intentions of bringing home a National Title, but we fell short. After the second round of competition we said our goodbyes to Rockford and loaded up the big white van to come home. I felt very frustrated because this year for college bowling is over for the team....

There is always next year to bring home that national title but this years fun memories will last me a lifetime!!!! 

Thank You Lady Cardinals For a WONDERFUL YEAR!!! 

CHUBBY BUNNY! =]

There are many fun and adventurous games today, ranging from bored games to hand games to talking games! However, a lot of games do not involve food or stuffing your face with mini marsh mellows! Chubby Bunny is an awesome game that you can just sit back and start to fill your mouth up with marsh mellows, just to see how many you can fit in your mouth at one time! The point of the game is to beat everyone else and at the end look like a chubby bunny! My friends and I played this game last night when we had the munchies, and we made some great fun memories that we will never forget. So, I recomomend that everyone plays this game at least one day of their lives, because if you don't you will never know what it feels like to be a chubby bunny! =] 

MEXICO!!!

Ok so, I am so excited to be going to Mexico in exactly 59 days! I've really never been that far down south before and there is definitely no drinking age, but that is not all that i am excited for. I actually love going out of the country because I like to experience different cultures, sites, taste, and the surroundings. I was born in Guam because my mother was in the Navy, but I still to this day, have never seen Guam or remember it because I was too little when I was there. One of these days I hope to explore all the countries and to visit the different cultures. I just hope that this trip will be great and that the sun will shine bright! =] 

Quotes that I made up! =]

1. Thinking of pain will make you sick, working through pain will make you hurt, but dealing with the pain is one step closer to forgetting the person that put you through the pain in the first place! 

2. Love can be true, Love can be real, Love can be the passion that your heart feels! 

3. When people let you down look up and be happy that God is looking down on you! 

4. Never let love blind you because once it does it could turn into your worst enemy. 

5. People say what they want to say so you can listen to whatever you want to hear. 

6. Living on the edge is the only way you can live fully. 

7. When life gets you down, know that I will always be around. 

8. When everything goes wrong and nothing goes right, lean on your friends because they are your dynamite. 

9. People don't change they just put a disguise on to make you think they do! 

10. Your eyes burn a fire in my soul. 

BSU going to NATIONALS!!!!

This spring break was not too bad this year. It started on Thursday morning when I left Muncie to go Chattanooga Tennessee for bowling sectionals. Many people that go to Ball State University don't know that we have a bowling team, because the school does not want to sponsor us. This really frustrates me because we are ranked 6th in the nation, which is better than our football team, but yet we get no recognition for all the hard work and time we put into this sport. Anyways we came out this weekend and bowled the best to our ability and this time all the hard work paid off for our team, because we are going to Nationals on April 14th in Rockford, IL. 

As a freshman I really didn't understand how it felt to go to nationals so I guess I will know here in a couple of weeks. I will keep you all updated on how we do! =] 

27 Dresses Movie Review

Stepping into the wedding business as a single woman can be quite the challenge, but for Jane (Katherine Heigl) its more of a lifestyle. 

The Story takes place in New York City where Jane falls madly in love with her boss (Ed Burns), but he is just not that into her, only when he needs to use her as a helpful doormat. However, Jane does not see this right away until she meets Kevin (James Marsden), who is a rude and grumpy guy that doesn't believe in marriage, or at least he seems like he doesn't. Things start to turn south when Kevin really starts liking Jane, but Jane is dealt with obstacles that she must overcome to see the real reason of love. 

This romantic comedy will have you on the edge of your seat and it will make you think that love does not always have to be perfect, it just has to be the right love that you have been seeking for!

Commitments are bigger then we think and with the right amount of thought and love commitments are what makes a lifetime together with that special someone (even if they are a little rude and out of place sometimes)! 

Why am I not SLEEPY!

Since I've been a college student I have been pulling all-nighters like it is my job! I don't know why but a lot of the time im not even tired and its like 2:00 in the morning! I don't know why I wasn't like this in high school, because in high school I could barely stay awake until like 12. 

I do have to say though that college is an experience and my first year has been a big journey but I hope next year becomes a better year for me. This year I had a lot of decisions to make and I had a lot more drama then I ever had in high school, but I do have to admit if I didn't have the drama now then I would've hated it earlier on down the road. Even though, drama never stops any where you go; It follows you all around until your tired of seeing it then it goes away for a couple years. 

Well, im to that point where im tired of seeing it so good bye drama and hello to a new start of not pulling all-nighters but pulling my life back together! =]

Is BSU for me?

Today in my RA class we were talking about living learning communities and she said that you will know by the first couple of weeks if you belong at Ball State or if you would be much happier some where else. Which got me thinking because everything seems to be going really bad this year and she said that if situations occur that are really rough and it seems like you can't get out of the messes, and that you keep having them happen to you then you should probably take another look to see where you are at. 

Im really taking another look but the thing that is holding me back the most from transferring is that i really love BSU as a college and I do think I belong here just not at this time in my life, because everything seems to be going wrong. Another thing is that I don't know what college I would transfer to? It's all a bunch of questions that I still can't answer for myself, but we will see how this year goes and what the end of this semester has in store for me! 

Hopefully not a TRANSFER application! =]

Breaking the NORM....

This semester I am taking sociology and for an essay that is due in three weeks I have to break a NORM. A norm is something that is not original in our society. For example, if you walked into an elevator but you walked to the back and put your noise against the side of the elevator wall and did not turn around to face the doors, that would be breaking a norm. So, I have been trying to come up with something genius, but I can't place my finger on anything that might be a good topic and even better a great norm to break. One problem that I come into every time while trying to think of a norm to break is the LAW. You can not break the law when you are trying to break a norm and that is really hard to do since today in our society everything that you think is not normal is normal. 

This has been on my mind for weeks and I would love to get a great topic so that I get it off my mind....so if any one has a good on just post me a comment please and thank you! =] 

Sesame Street

ELMO....is my HERO!!! BAHAHAHA

Super Bowl BUST!

The Super Bowl was yesterday and we all know that the Steelers won, which was a bust because the Cardinals totally should've by the way they played and ran the ball...but each to their own. Any ways the commercials for this Super Bowl were the worst commercials i have ever watched in my entire life. They were pointless and they had no humor what so ever....it was like watching my grandma knit sitting in a rocking chair....it was down right awful! I mean everyone loves to watch the Super Bowl wether their team made it or not but im sure everyone can testify that the reason you watch the whole Super Bowl is because they have great humor commercials....but i guess this year our economy is in a "down fall"....yeah right says who? President Obama...i wouldn't believe that until our economy hits rock bottom in a crash! 

Just saying that the Super Bowl game might have been great but the commercials really blew! 

Stick a straw in your pit!

Yeah so I have the most awesome boyfriend ever, because today when we were sitting in Woodworth he showed me that a straw can be used in two ways, drinking and farting. Yeah farting if you put the tip of the straw under your armpit and blow through the side sticking out from underneath your t-shirt you can make a farting noise and it sounds really realistic. All I could do at the table is laugh and watch everyone walking by laugh because they thought he was actually farting.

So now I learned that straws are used as a pranking tool as well as drinking from your favorite slushy! 

Martin Luther King.....GONE BAD!!!

Do you ever have that feeling that your friends are talking about you or that they hate your guts? Well that's what i was feeling this weekend and i was right. The friends that i thought i had no longer existed to me now and my true friends stood by my side, while my so called friends cussed me out for no reason all because of my boyfriends facebook status, and that's where it ended but let me tell you how it all began....

It started on the sunday before MLK day when i got two text messages from my use to be friend Jodi saying that i need to stop making drama just because i told them that i really wanted to do stuff with them but they never asked me to do anything or included me any more? Why i didn't know, but that's all i said and when i asked her what she was talking about she told me it was about a facebook status....I kinda had to laugh at this because everything on facebook does not always have to be real....but i heard her out through all the bologna and then they decided that we all needed to get together and talk, which i agreed.....

So when i got back that sunday after i bowled in a tourney we all sat down and talked and when all was said and done i didn't even feel any better and now all the friends on my floor that i thought i had (including my room mate) are now to me not even apart of my life any more, which sucks but crap happens....I just wished it didn't have to make my MLK day so displeasing. 

The What If Game

In our life time we always ask questions that portray to our future, and ask ourselves "What If"

What if i graduated from college in four years

What if i never have kids or get married

What if i get some type of disease and I only have one month to live

What if i get a tattoo

What if i went sky diving

What if i become one of the top dentists in America or the World

What if i go blind

What if i got in a car crash

What if i went to jail....

There are many of these "What If" questions that our society as a whole doubt on at multiple times in a day...and if you think about it each of these questions challenge you to think about who you would like to become and why you would like to become this....It's like each of us having a different major of what person we want to become. 

I just stumbled upon this question myself and am now trying to get on that path of who i want to be and what i want my future to hold, and im finding out that life has many blessings and many challenges you just have to think about it in a positive way so that you can move on with your life a lot more efficiently.
