Reconstruction and Proggresivism

If I wrote down everything about this period of time in US history, NO ONE would read this blog. Theres not to much excitement involved, but its something I need to know for tomorrows' test and i'm studying my butt off!(or trying)...

@ this very moment \THIS/ is where I want to be!

Late Night w/ Sally Ride

^ It's bad quality, but it's the thought that counts right? ^

How Crazy!

When the snow came down, and the trees fell! They just couldn't handle the pressure :P

<----This is a huge tree that fell right outside the english building.

Study, Study, Study

I've taken a quiz(history) and a test(speech) all within 2 hours :D I know your jealous!

I "heart" The Mac! --->

The UTA activites center, its beautiful and is now official hang out place for me..kind of! Its kind of hard since I'm a commuter(i live 40 min. away) but I try to go the MAC 2-3 times week to work out. Since I'm not working this semester, I have extra time to "hit" the gym(its fun to say hitting the gym). I love the energy I get from it.

Although school is fun and all, I am in serious need of going shopping, something I need to do ASAP! What I want.........................

Vancouver Olympics 2010!

Totally forgot to mention the Olympics! Friday, February 12th, 2010 <3

So far USA has won 8 medals and Sweden has wond a total of 2... CONGRATS!!!

Presidents Day!

So my brother has no school today b/c of Presidents day, while I do! I've been up since 8:30 am and @ school since 11 am. Today after Pre-Cal, PASS, MAE(engineering),5 hours in the library and 2 grande mochas I will be seeing the first woman astronaut to go to space, Sally Ride, here at UTA! Is it weird that I am really excited? I haven't really heard of her that much, but just knowing what she has accomplished makes me honored to be able hear from here, even if she will be 50 feet away from me :P ~Did I mention that I'm excited~ I'm starting to get stressed out now with all the studying I have to accomplish week, but it should end up going well. I feel more nervous about the fact that I'm not nervous I think?

The Last Song

by Nicholas Sparks

--------------------------------

I just finished reading this book last night, and in the process I think I might have cried twice :P Nicholas Sparks is a sheer genius! And any girl who doesn't think so might just be crazy. What girl doesn't love his books or movies for that matter ... and you definitely need to read Dear John if you haven't already gotten the chance to... B.E.A.UTIFUL!

Now I can't wait for the movie!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone had a great Valentines Day! Mine I spent the the night before with great friends and made some fun memories to definitely last a while :D And the day of was spent with homework and reading, TOP THAT! haha...

SNOW DAY?!

What is going on? February in Texas, and there is snow outside and it just keeps coming :D My school didn't actually give me a snow day, so I ended up getting one anyways. Living 40 minutes away through roads and traffic I really didn't feel safe driving in it. More time to study! YES!

Things That I loved this Week!

Thank You Hannah!!!!

I made my day :D

School, School, Sleep, and School again....

<-My SPEECH->



What I turned in for my Communications course for Speech...


First Grade Material :D

BOO

I found this (the spider on the car) outside the stripmall here in Fort Worth.......NOT FUNNY at all!!!!

I really wish I could do the whole sorority thing, but because of last semesters grades it didn't really work out for me. Maybe it's just not my thing :P Just another thing to think about...

I did my speech for my communications course today and I'm pretty sure I did the same speech in Sweden a whole lot better. You'd think a speech about yourself should be simple. Well, it is unless your a nervous speaker like me.

I would rather blog...

Today I have accomplished nothing...academically. I need to finish a speech about myself. I know what to talk about, but how can I make it short and sweet. I want people to Love me afterwards! It shouldnt be to hard :P

This Weekend....

• Hope For Haiti



They raised over $58 million dollars after airing on more than 5 channels for 2 hours.




• Conans' Final Show on NBC



...I WILL MISS YOU CONAN!!!

• Hookah Lounge "Narah's" w/ some really cool people!
  
  
• Friend Reunion- I havent seen Ryan in over 8 years!
• I Made Dinner for Mi Familia...well something edible :P
  
• Applied to OSU!

• & LOVELY Homework........History and Speeches

Frustration

I have the best friends in the world, but none of them actually go to UTA! After going an entire semester without really meeting anyone that I can really feel close to it gets frustrating... I mean I know people that I can say Hi to when I pass, but who doesn't. I want a friend that I can cry to when im sad, that I can tell story to :P Oh, well...I should be concentrating on school anyways.

I have a speech to give on Tuesday called a Brown-Bag Speech, where I'm supposed to talk about myself and who I am. And I have to figure out who I want to vote for in Texas' new election for governor for my Government class.

Something I desperately need to read!

Cars Cars Cars

And this is just a part of the schools parking...

THEY'RE COMING!

Vickan, Nina & Linnea are coming to Fort Worth!

Today was my second day of school and it was good. I had pre-cal where there seems to be alot of fun people and my probation course where I shall learn about learning :D It will be good...oh and I bought my books today about 400 bucks!!! NOT COOL!!!!! Next semester i will be ordering online, I Swear!

A Fun Fact! For the next 5 months I will be driving my car a minimum of 2 hours a day 5 days a week! Thats insane!! I love being able to walk on a daily bases in pretty nature, but I can't do that here. And living at home doesnt make it any easier...

A picture of my schools parking lot will be posted tomorrow...It's RIDICK!

Texas Brownies, Paper Flowers, and Cell Phones :P

Late night snack @marble slab, @ one point everyone was on there fun, What does that mean?!
Cutie Friends :D
Buddy made paper roses, It makes him happy ;)

& Parker made delicious Texas shaped brownies!

Not so Bad

I had a not to bad day today. I have a good feeling about this semester :D Political Science, Speech and History all within four hours on Tuedsay and Thursday... I met some cool people and have some cool teachers, including a govt. teacher who says bullshit and a speech teacher who says pleasurism instead of plagiarism.

And the best party of it all is that I ALREADY have homework!

AWESOME!!

So it begins...

...I now have a second chance to kick butt!

My first semester kind of sucked. I had a blast with new people I met and the classes I took, but in high school I didn't study(not quite sure how I graduated to be honsest) and then I went to Sweden where there was really no need to study. All in all starting college, would be a very difficult task. I've got this down now though do not worry. I'm prepared this time...sort of. I bought all my notebooks tonight and some pretty color pens ;) although i still need to buy my books. Mentally I'm prepared...with ALL of my 6 classes!

Lazy Weekend!

It's my last weekend before school starts, and I've used it to just relax and catch up on silly things. Thursday was spent @ church w/ Allison, Michelle, Amy, Becca and Meredith and the boys. I've missed them alot since I went to Sweden! Yesterday some bad news happened to Allison, so it might be a while before I see her but I spent the night eating dinner with Buddy, Ben, Michelle and the new guy Ryan. I had fun talking about interesting things and some things I wish I never heard...Mostly just gross guy things that women should NOT be a part of. And Today my mom and brother left my dad and I alone for the weekend to just relax. I slept in till around 1 and spent the day watching Jersey Shore, Real World, watching all the latest episodes of Dollhouse, and cooked dinner ;) LOVE IT! A new found passion :D

I had some time to find some really good music..

1. Miike Snow- Black & Blue (savage skulls remix)..found it in Cosmopolitan

2. Jeremy Messersmith- Love You to Pieces..from Jersey Shore

3. I think i might be in love with Erik Hassle..from Sweden :P

Erik Hassle- Don't Bring Me Flowers After I'm Dead

I Missed It There!

Just got back from Sweden just 4 days ago and am still jetlagged :P I got to spend 3 lovely weeks in Linkoping and 2 beautiful days in Oslo. Since my last post not to much has actually happened, well maybe a little. I spent 5 months studying with some acceptions to college parties and just some casual hanging out. Spent Thanksgiving in Michigan, and spent New Years and Christmas in Sweden :D

New Years

Christmas Day

Thanksgiving

Halloween

Catching Up ^

Welcome to my new blog! :D

Now that I'm back from Sweden, theres alot of catching up to do and alot of remembering. I've met my best friends, and bonded in no time! I've learned the conservative republican side of texas...again, don't really agree with it, but accepted it. And now i'm learning to live on my own in a new state. Well I'm not actually living alone yet, but I am starting my journey on to becoming the woman I need to be :P Cheesy! I know... but true!

Instead of my bike, I get a car.

Instead of little compact cars, I see jumbo trucks.

Instead of forest, I see dirt.

Instead of 25 celcius, I get 50 celcius.

Things have changed all over again!
