Halloween!!

I never knew that I would become so busy while being in college. I've been planning to make a blog post for the longest, but there is always so many other things to do. College is okay, I'm beginning to like it a little bit more now. Talking to boys, attending more activites, and making different friends has helped me. Even though I like college a lot, I'd still rather be at home. Where my family and friends are. This weekend is my first Halloween in college and so far so good! Yesterday I went to a party at the Rugby House and it was kinda fun. I walked like a mile in the rain and that sucked so my mood at the party wasn't as high as it could have been. I really did have a cute costume though. =] I'm going home next weekend and I'm pretty excited. Today i registered for my spring semester classes. I HATED IT!! because i couldn't get my schedule the way I wanted it to be. Well I'm about to go watch some scary movies so I'll try to write back ASAP!
Peace,

Home Sweet Home

Ok I always thought that college was the most fun thing that could ever happen but now I'm beginning to feel like it's over rated. Don't get me wrong, college is fun, but after spending labor day weekend back at home I want to go back and stay. I kinda wish that I could have went to University of Illinois at Chicago. Going home was super fun, I got to spend time with my puppy, my mom, and my friend Melayne. The only regret that I have is that I never really got the chance to spend time with my dad or sisters or my friend Aubrianna. I was also happy to see my 'boyfriend?' (idk what to call him). Me and my sisters only spent one or two nights hanging out watching One Tree Hill. I'm going to find any excuse to go back though. I may even be going home this weekend. I really want to be a DJ and I finally told my mom about my dream to. I'm also thinking of minoring in journalism now. It really sucks though because now that I'm in college I never really have the opportunity to make new blog posts. =[ I'm going to try and make more blog posts, but I'm always busy. I may not even post again until my next trip home. lol
Peace!

U don't need crack 2 b DOPE!!

Sooo.. I haven't had a lot of time to make posts because I'm so busy with college classes and stuff, but today I got out of classes early and I found myself VERY bored. What can I say about the college life? It's VERY fun!! It's sorta like one big sleepover everyday. There aren't many cute guys here; but that's ok. I don't need more distractions than I already have. I've been giving it a lot of thought and I kinda think I might end up changing my major. It's between a lot of different things that I think would fit me. Its between; apparel, design, & merchandising (fashion design), pre-law, psychology, marketing, and accounting (which is my current major). I also think I may want to take up journalism as a minor or something, because I have been doing very well in my English class and I am a pretty good writer (thanks 2 my Keller teachers & my British Lit teacher, Mr. Moon). I also have a pretty crazy imagination. Dorming could be better, considering I still have a snoring roommate, but she's a nice girl, I just don't think me and her should be roommates considering the circumstances. It's close-quarters here so now I'm sick. I've always been a bit of a germaphobe but I think college is making it worse. Ever since I got the bug from my friends, I have not let the hand-sanitizer get more than 1 foot away from me.. LOL! But I would say that this is a pretty good experience and I am happy I got a chance to do it. I feel very sorry for some of my friends who live close to their college and are commuting. The only problem is the money. Having my parents 90-something miles away from me makes it hard to live. Because you can't live on your own with no money. But I think I'm getting better with money management. It also helps that I have the 5-day unlimited meal plan. Because God knows I love to eat. But I think that next year I'm probably going to get the 7-day unlimited plan. I think I may even work out.. SHOCKING? lol. maybe I'll just watch my friends. About 2 go eat!
Peace!

Living the College Life

So far college is pretty fun!! School work on week days...parties weekends. The only problem I'm having with this college thing is the distractions. There's always so much going on that I can never stay focused on doing my homework. I've been managing to stay on my work but I know that as the year progresses, it will probably get harder. I've been sleeping in my neighbors' room because one of my roommates snores and that is my BIGGEST pet peeve!!!! I hate the sound of snoring more than anything in the world. I haven't really met any cute guys, except one but nothing is really happening with that. Me and my friends have been having a lot of fun with our outings. We've been to the malls, target, out to eat. We even tried basketball. I'm excited for this learning experience because I'm learning in class as well as about different cultures. And I'm teaching people about mine. Its a lot different from high school, I can say that. I think that I am going to try a lot of activities this year and I may even consider pledging a sorority. Well I have a 9 o clock class in the morning so I'm going to sleep.
Peace! (PS- I love Jamie Placek!!)

My Guilty Pleasure

It's always been my passion to be a big fashion designer or the president of a big clothing company. I don't know where the passion came from but I really love creating a style and following trends. I used to want to be a model when I was young because I just love the whole idea of the fashion world and being in it. I used to be in a thing at Nordstrom called Fashion Board and it was SO AWESOME!! We always talked about the latest trends, we met buyers, worked behind the scenes for fashion shows. It was like the best thing that I could have done considering my passion being fashion. My inspirations/role models have been Angela and Vanessa Simmons because they kinda make me feel like I can do anything I want to. Every time I watch the show I feel like I can become what I want in life. Although they have ties since their father is Rev Run and their Uncle is Russell Simmons but I know that if I work hard I can create my own clothing line. I would also like to be the president of Pastry kinda like Rasheed is for Run Athletics. That is another one of my passions. I've been doing a fashion book since 8th grade of all the trends that I like also and drawings I have made. And another awesome thing happened to me; I met a girl in my same dorm building who has the same passion as me and her major is apparel, merchandising, & design so I have decided to make that as my minor. I am super excited for when I can start taking classes related to that because it won't even feel like I'm in school, I'll fee more like I am doing something for fun. College life is pretty cool but these people LOVE TO PARTY!!! Every day there have been people SOO WASTED!! It's cool but I gotta learn how to separate myself from that so I can get my work done.

Touchdown

Today was move in day for me for college and it was very hectic!! It took forever to load everything in and I'm super sore! My roommates are pretty awesome so thats a plus.. everything has been cool so far. I'm a little nervous about sleeping away from home tonight and I'm unfortunately stuck on the top bunk. =[ but it's cool because our room is soo cute!! I think that I'm gonna get super fat because I have an unlimited meal plan but thats cool because I LOVE FOOD!!! It's crazy how I was just entering high school but now I'm in college and livi

ng on my own. I have my priorities really straight and I hope that one day I can be a role model to young people because I am a really motivated person. But this whole college experience is gonna be so much different then high school, I won't have anybody to wake me up and force me to do all my work so I have so much responsibility but I think I can handle it. I think I am ready because I know how important a college education is. As of now I'm majoring in accounting because my parents keep telling me that it's really hard to get into the fashion world but I think that next year I'm gonna transfer to the Art Institute and major in fashion design. But I'm about to go find a party so...

Peace!
