Over the weekend I took my first steps towards my new adventure, college orientation. I showed up not knowing what to expect, except complete awkwardness; I didn't know anyone who would be there.  Read More »

A Look Into The Future

Over the weekend I took the first steps of my new and exciting adventure...college by attending orientation. I arrived for the over night early on Thursday morning not knowing what to expect.

Moving On and Letting Go

Tomorrow my family locks up and says goodbye our house we lived in for seventeen years. For months I was in denial of moving. Moving couldn't possibly change how I felt about my family's situation. I wanted so long for my family to be strong and try to keep our house, but now I realize it was all for the best.  Read More »

You Can't Take My Scholarship From Me!

After weeks of not knowing what school to go to and constantly debating one school against the other, I finally chose a college based on the financial aid I was receiving. I didn't think I would be attending this school since the tuition is $43,000 a year. FAFSA had advised me to take out $30,000 in loans.

Most of the gas stations around me average $3.99 to $4.05.  Read More »

"Sex" Gives Wrong View of Love: Warning: Spoiler!

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •    •  

This weekend, I went to see "Sex and the City" with my friend. My mom wasn't very keen on me going, but she said I was old enough to make my own decision to see the movie. So, of course I went. I didn't really want to see it, but I felt bad that I blew off my friend twice that week. As I sat in the theater, I laughed at the jokes-mostly dirty and full of curses.  Read More »
