Save Me, Save Me, Save Me, Ohhhh….

This break has gone by SO fast!

I can't believe I'm going back to the Beeg area on Saturday!

I've been kinda sick for the last week & it's been pretty boring since I haven't been able to do much :/

oh well.

Hopefully I can kick this cold before classes start on *shutters*… Monday…

I already got my books though! :)

#aheadofthegame :P

Have a wonderful Friday :)

Da Ba De Da Ba Dah

So it's Jan. 2nd of 2013!

These days are just flying by!

It seems like yesterday I was like, 2…

But really, life moves pretty fast.

(That was my nice little tribute to Ferris :P)

I have so many things to do already it seems like.

I am excited to go back to school though!

This semester has definite potential to be great!

I wanted to get a co-op…

But when people don't get back to you when they say they will, it makes things a lot more difficult.

What can ya do?

I'm excited for some of my classes though!

They're all the rest of my gen-eds that I needed to get done, so yay!

It might stink that I'm getting all the rest of my easy classes out of the way & won't have any blow off classes for my senior year or something, but whatevs!

I just mapped out a general game plan for the next two and half years! :P

I think one of my resolutions this year is going to be to write more often on here.

I miss this :')

Last Night On Earth…

My beating heart belongs to you

I walked for miles 'til I found you

I'm here to honor you

If I lose everything in the fire

Did I ever make it through?

"Last Night on Earth" - Green Day

So, I suppose this song is kind of relevant today.

I mean, considering people think the world is ending on Dec. 21, 2012.

And it's Dec. 20th…

But really…

Why would listen to this?

The Mayans were probably bored of continuing on their calendar for so long… Especially since they knew they wouldn't be alive by this point…

Also, the other parts of the world are already experiencing 12/21/12…

& they are all still very much a part of this world…

There are people going crazy & draining their life savings and just blowing all their money…

Why?

Seriously… Stop that!

I mean, I guess we won't know until tomorrow if I'm wrong or not…

But, by then it won't matter…

I'm not wrong, by the way…

There's no way!

SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW! :)

#SelfieProbz

I'm sure you've seen "selfies" overtake your social media sites lately…

What is a selfie?

WELL…

Selfie - a picture someone takes of themselves, alone… and posts them on a social media site like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. In the picture, the person is usually trying extra hard to look good, or looking ridiculous while making silly faces.

It's becoming a problem.

WHY HAS SOCIAL MEDIA BEEN ATTACKED BY THE SELFIES?!

I think SnapChat is playing a big part in the "selfie" outbreak…

Why not send someone an ugly face that they can only see for a few seconds before it's erased?

Too bad there's screen-shotting abilities now though kiddos!

So watch what you're sending! :P

Here are some classic things to look for when identifying a selfie!

The classic "Peace sign/wink/tongue-sticking-out" combo

The "kissy" face (YIKES!)

The "Gazing off into the distance" face..
That's usually accompanied by lyrics or something else cheesy like,
"You're always on my mind"
(barf).. Sorry…

The "How YOU doin'?!"
Curtesy of Joey Tribbiani :P

The "Oh-hey-There's-something-on-my-wall-and-I'm-just-gonna-act-like-
this-really-great-angle-of-my-face-
was-taken-by-complete-accident" face…
Enough said.

Yeah…

I mean, I can understand I guess why people post these SOMETIMES…

But, when you're posting them SO often that I KNOW to expect them, that's too much! So, maybe just calm it down a little.

PLEASE & THANK YOU!

Sincerely,

- Everyone

Teenage Dream...

This is my last post ever as a teenager.

YIKES!

I'm excited to be more of an adult.

A societally recognized adult.

When you're 18, yes, you're an "adult," but…

You're still looked down upon.. greatly.

People still classify you as a "reckless teenager," or whatever else they call us.

Well, almost no more ridicule for me.

I was talking to my mother the other day about how teens are scrutinized and stereotyped.

My brother stopped at a gas station to get some gum before his homecoming dance and the man behind the counter made a common to him saying how the gum wouldn't cover up alcohol.

Okay, okay… He's SEVENTEEN.

No need for those comments.

They breathalyze to get into the dances anyway, so you'd have to be stupid to drink beforehand anyways.

Another example

Would be when students go to the health clinic here on campus… Not every problem is related to alcohol. Seriously. I'm just sick… Diagnose me and make me better.

But there was my little rant.

I'm excited to be 20.

YAYYYYY! :D

Phew! Less than a half hour left! :)

I Don't Wanna Be...

… Anything other than what 

I've been tryin' to be lately.

All I have to do is think of me 

& I have peace of mind.

I have one, count 'em, ONE week left of teenage life.

If you ask me, that's pretty scary.

20.

20.

20.

OH. MY. GOSH!

So many things happen in your 20s!

I just can't contemplate that!

Reason #1:

Finishing higher education & graduating!

Reason #2:

Getting a real job in the real world!

Reason #3:

Getting engaged & married! :)

Reason #4:

Starting a family?! :O

It's all really scary.

SO MUCH STUFF CAN/MIGHT HAPPEN!

I just can't believe I'm about to move on to the next decade of my life!

Phew.

It's kinda a lot to take in.

Obviously all those things aren't going to happen over night…

But, 20 just showed up so fast… Who knew!?

Wahhh.

Hello pulse check.

Welcome to reality & the real world!

I really want to make the best 

& most of the next 10 years of my life.

I think I can do that much.

Wish me luck…

I think I'm ready for a life though.

Are you?
