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?

And Breathe, Just Breathe...

Hey there!
It's been quite a while since I've had the chance to post.
I've had so much work to do.
This semester is definitely going to keep me busy.

That's okay though!
I'm gonna get through it all!

Tomorrow:
Is the fall kickoff meeting for VCTO…
Which is Visual Communication Technology organization!
It's super fun!
& I'm really excited to meet some new people!

I've also got 50 thumbnail sketches due tomorrow
& two roughs…
I need to finish those…

Hopefully everything is going well for you all!
& that you all are enjoying school/work/whatever :P

Maybe I'll have a little time to start writing in this again…
We'll see!

xoxo

Happy Tuesday!

It All Started With A Big Bang...

So many things.
All the time.

For one: I won "Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock" tonight :)

#champin

School starts again soon!
In 15 days! YIKES!
I can't believe it.
Time series flies.

I have so much to do before I leave though!
So much
So much
So much!

Somehow I'll get everything done though!

I can't wait to be back in the Beeg though!
Bowling Green State University
It's the greatest <3>

I did just spend 5 days with him though

Our families met and had dinner together too & that also went well! Couldn't have asked for it to go any better! <3 nbsp="nbsp">

Have a great night/day :)

Jon McLaughlin Live Love…

JMcL:
During spring semester's finals week, singer/songwriter/musician Jon McLaughlin of Indiana performed online with LiveStream.
Needless to say, I had set aside the entire block of time to sit in front of my computer and watch him perform live.
He is so talented.

I've only had the opportunity to catch him in concert twice, but each time was better than the next!
Every album you can hear how he grows as an artist, and I can't get enough of his voice!
I look forward to the day when he's playing at sold-out shows in amphitheaters big enough to hold thousands :)



Here's his live performance :)


So many of JMcL's songs have amazing lyrics, and I think that is one of the reasons why he's so great.
His songs inspire me, as I'm sure they do so many others.
I really hope he knows how great he really is!
Amazing.

I'm Already In the Perfect life, and these Blue Skies are Giving Me Reasons to Love that you're Beating My Heart, because you're Always On My Mind, and that's Why I'm Talking to You, because I'm only Human, and I want you to Dance Your Life Away with me, so even though the Summer is Over and it's So Close to The Middle of These Crazy Times, You Are What I'm Here For, which is why I'll Follow You to Indiana because I know it's A Little Too Hard (& A Little Too Fast) to tell you that You Can Never Go Back, because the truth is We All Need Saving, and people always tried to Throw My Love Around, and I know I Brought This On Myself, and just when I thought Maybe It's Over, I ran Smack Into You, and Without You Now, I'd be Promising Promises to someone who wasn't What I want, but you introduced me as, "My Girl" Tonight, and after these Four Years, I know that You Are The One I Love.

Sincerely, your Beautiful Disaster
