This Summer
So I know it's been a long time since I last posted a blog and I am deeply sorry about that. I have just been so busy with school, work, and balancing family and my boyfriend I've hardly have any time to do anything. So I was laying in bed having a hard time trying to fall asleep when I thought, "Hey, I haven't blogged in a really long time. . . Lemme do that." So let us catch up here. . . This past semester I took some fairly hard classes. I am proud of myself though. Out of all the classes I took I only got one C and the rest were As and Bs. Ended with a 3.4 GPA, not too shabby I think for my first year in college. For the other part of my life that is going really well too. Me and my boyfriend are going on five months and I could not be happier. He makes me so happy and I couldn't imagine ever being with anyone else. Works starting to slowly suck. They are slowly giving me less and less hours. I had to threaten to quit in order to get more hours. What I don't understand is how they are hiring more and more people and keep cutting the exciting employes hours. Makes no sense what so ever if you ask me. Anyways I just had my nineteenth birthday this past Monday and it was probably the best one I've had in a while. Had the whole family over and my boyfriend and it was a lot of fun. Well I think I am going to go to bed now. I wish you all the best and have an amazing night.

New Year
Well we are now 21 days into the new year. Hope everyone's new year is going just as good as mine is.
So to catch up where we left off,
The guy I was talking about in my last post is now my boyfriend and he makes the so happy. Can't believe he's in my life. He is the sweetest guy ever and I can't believe he was right under my nose the whole time and I didn't even know it. I have recently gotten a job, and I am enjoying working and having some money to my name. Going to get myself the Iphone 5 once I've saved up a little bit more. But I really need it, because my current phone is starting to fall apart and do stupid things. My spring semester is going great. So far I like all my classes but one, and that is the Biology Lab. Thats only because it's a basicaly three hour class, and I can't sit still to save my life. I'm glad that's only a once a week class. We had some snow down here on Thursday night that delayed classes till 10, which I thought was stupid cause I only had one class and the teacher was late to the class and we only talked for like five minutes. So it was a pretty big waste of time and gas on my part.
Well I hope everyone had an amazing weekend, and I wish everyone a good week at school and/or work!

Catching Up
Well I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas (or holidays) and a safe and happy New Year. Mine was not as amazing as it would like, but it was pretty good.
I had my two days of Christmas with my family Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The Friday after Christmas I got my wisdom teeth taken out and I was drugged for the biggest part of the week. But my New Years Eve was pretty boring. I went shopping the first part of the day then I spent the rest of the night at home with the family. My New Years day was probably the best I've ever had. The first part of the day I went hunting with my dad, the second part was when it got good. I came home and ate the traditional southern New Years meal, black eyed peas, but then something amazing happened. Around 10 that night I had an amazing guy message me on Facebook and we've been talking everyday since. He is a really amazing guy, pretty much the male version of me... only thing different so far is he likes the cowboys and I like the steelers and redskins. Lol but we will make it.
Hope everyone has an amazing weekend.
Bye!

Exams
Hey everybody!
So this week is exam week for every one at Richard Bland. I only had five exams to take this semester. I did my RBC 101 exam quite a while ago, but I had four this week back to back to back to back. First was my Western Civ that I had yesterday. Today I have my Music Apparition exam. Tomorrow I have my Fitness and Wellness, and finally I have my Religion exam on Thursday. I think my Western Civ was probably my hardest exam, but I will treat them all the same. You never know. . . Your easiest class could turn out to be the hardest exam. Why I was thankful when Sweeney said we didn't have an exam in his class. That was my easiest class this semester. Thank you Mr. Sweeney! Well I have to go study for my exam. I wish everyone good luck with exams, if you have them, and I wish everyone a good day!

Done!
Well everyone it's finally here. The last post I'm required to post for class, but don't be upset. I promised I would continue this blog, and you can ask anyone, I don't break promises.
Well everything is starting to slow down. Week after next are finals, and I'm so thankful that Mr. Sweeney doesn't have a final in his class. All we have to do is write the last paper. That's the only issue that I have right now. We have to general topic we have to write on, Family, but I'm having so much trouble picking on a smaller topic to write about. There are two possible topics I could write about, but the problem is I don't know how I could make them into an arugmenative paper. The two are very close to me, and I feel that it will be very emotional when I write either of theses topics.
My life this past week has been interesting. Been hunting with my dad every chance I get, cause as I said in my last post it's really the only time I feel like I get to spend time with him. So the outcome of me hunting all the time. . . I don't get to go out as much. Just more time I get to spend on my school work.
It's been a very yucky day here in good ol' Virginia. It's raining at the moment, and everyone knows cold and wet do not mix well. . . unless you don't count a dogs nose. Thats the only time cold and wet do mix well. Well I'm going to relax for a while. I just finished taking a final, and I've already had a test and a quiz in the same class today. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Catching Up
So first off I must apologize for my laziness on posting. I have been so busy lately with classes and my life outside of school I have been putting off typing a new post. But I must type 10 post in order to get a grade for my English class... I believe this would be post number nine. So I've got one more post after this and then I'm done for the class. But as I promised I will try my hardest to continue to post as time goes on. So lets catch up from where we left off.
Well since October a lot has gone on in my life, as well as in class. In class we have done a lot of new grammer shammers, and we have started to do group readings. The group readings have been really interesting to read, and they really make you think. We also had a new paper to write. It was on crime and punishment. I wrote my topic on how the drinking age should be lowered. I think it should be lowered because, our generation is already drinking and most of us aren't 21 yet. Also wrote it on the fact that there are several arrests everyday for under aged drinking. My thinking... lower the drinking age and you'll get people who don't care about drinking as much.
Now my life as been quite interesting these past few weeks. Hunting season has started, which is awesome. Pretty big deal for me because, this is the only time of year I feel like my dad and I really bond (I am the only one out of me and my sister that will go hunting). But most importantly my family has really started to come together, and I gotta say.... I like having all my family together again.

Death and Torture
Kinda a spooky title I know. But that is what the readings were on that we had this week. Guess Sweeney is getting us in the mood for Halloween.
So Tuesday was the day we talked about death. I will admit I did not read the reading, but we had a good time in class talking about it. The reading was about this guy that had gotten the death penalty. I do not know why he got that, but the story goes on to say that while he is on death row he changes and becomes a better person. But in the end he still dies. So we talked about if we thought the death penalty was a good or bad thing. We concluded that the death penalty is good in certain cases like for serial killers, or for those who are mentally unstable and cannot be released into the world. We then talked about if the death penalty was just a way of reducing the people in prisons (if it was cheaper to kill them for keep them in jail for life).
Thursday was when we talked about torture. Again I did not read like I should have, but oh well. From what I got the reading was about if torture was the right thing to do or not. I think in some cases you need torture. But anyway Sweeney had us split into two groups and debate about it. Again my class seems to get too involved in these debates and I thought we were going to have a fight on our hands. We then did a grammar shammer, but at the moment I do not remember what it was about.
Overall it was a good week in class. Cannot wait to see what this week brings.
