College Writing 1

I hate writing with a passion but being in this class has actually been amazing and I thank you Dr. Kyburz. You have helped me so much and just having you as a teacher was awesome as well that I cannot wait for next semester for College Writing 2 with you. I really liked everything we did in this class and I feel that I have progressed so much that this final post is just expressing my gratitude. As much as I hate papers, this semester has not that bad like I thought it would be. I really owe it all to you because if I had a horrible teacher I would not even want to try with them. But having you made everything much more chill and I felt that I could actually succeed. The work was not as much as I thought it would be either. I felt that everything worked out so well that it kind of just fell into place perfectly every time. I just really wanted to thank you for all your help and I feel that I finally actually got somewhere with my writing. 

Post Thanksgiving

Well ever since Thanksgiving break has been over, I have just been in winter break mode. I just want to sleep, do nothing, and play in the snow. Even though there is no snow on the ground I still have high hope that in will be a winter wonderland Christmas. But back to school, I have been neglecting everything. I literally just drive to school, sit in classes, maybe get some homework, then go home and do nothing. I have suffered because of it and I know now that I need to keep my shit together throughout the whole semester which I will definitely do next semester. Even though I have sucked the past couple weeks I still somehow make it out alive. I am actually do pretty great now and actually getting my stuff together and I am not going to fail so that is what matters. When it matters, I can do anything I set my mind to or just when I am on a time crunch like I always am. I just cannot wait till I am fully done with first semester so I can just chill for a whole month.

Thanksgiving Break

Well that was a nice little break preview to winter break. It was really hard to come back. On Monday I just kept thinking if there was actually school. I do not know about everyone else but I was not ready to go back. Plus everything just went right back to the way it was and it actually hurt. I know its crazy to think that coming back to school you will not do school work but man I would have loved to just go back to introductory day when everything was easy again. I am just hoping for these next two weeks to go by fact. But other than that, break was super chill. I decided to let nothing stress me out and I just did nothing. It was amazing and I cannot wait for the end of first semester. But my friend went out of town so I got to steal her house for a couple days to take care of all her critters and it was so nice. I did not have to deal with parents, anyone, or anything. I got to just do nothing and cuddle with some cats. It made me think a lot about how I cannot wait to live on my own and not be pressured or anything by my parents. It sucks because I really want to move out but it would be so stupid because I do not have to pay any bills and I could not even afford any bills right now. I really just want the freedom and not having to feel this weird pressure all the time. But I know it is defiantly better to just stay at home as long as possible. Other than that, I did do some black Friday shopping on Thursday night and then back on Friday during the day. I loved every minute of it... well mostly. No one was crazy, there actually were not that many people, and there were some not so horrible sales. But some of the stores I actually wanted to buy things from were not even open till 6 or 7 in the morning. I was so upset because I am used to places being open from midnight all the way till the next day. That is how it was for my cousin who is a couple years older then me so I just thought it would have stayed that way. It was crazy to me that the mall decided to close early and basically all the stores I actually wanted to go to were not even open till later. But it is all good because I just went back the next day to all my stores and even found some super cute shirts and one even is my new years outfit which I am super excited to do something for. I just had a good break that let me kind of just relax and rejuvenate and I miss it already.


This was me the whole break especially thinking about the homework I had to do.

Slacking

Well I have just been horrible these last few weeks. I have been the worst at being a student and it is basically a job so I should be fired by now. I have tried and tried to get back on the school track to finish strong but it is so hard to care when winter break is almost here. I miss sleep, I miss free time, and I miss my friends. It is hard to balance all of these things at once and as the end of the year approaches, it makes it so much harder to try. But you know, I feel that I still got this. These grades are going to be great. All these end of the semester tests and papers are just going to be the best because somehow I always make it through and I do pretty well. The one thing that I am really mad at is that I completely forgot about this blog and making posts. It has been a couple weeks and that is not good at all. See, I do not really think about talking about my life and writing all this down and sharing it with the world. It is hard to do and plus thinking about what has happened to me in the past week is not something that is very exciting. I think I am pretty awesome not gonna lie but actually thinking about what I have done in a week is not the most amazing thing out there. I do not really do much. I just go to work and school and it is the exact same routine every single week so it just does not seem that exciting to me. But somehow, I have written some blogs and gotten it done but I mean those are probably boring because what did I do this week, well nothing. 


Dogs

For the past couple weeks all I have been thinking about is getting a dog. I have always wanted one but it just seemed my mother would never go for it which makes no sense. She has always talked about getting a dog but she would never follow through. I have dog sat, I love all of my friends dogs, and I have even done research about taking care of them. I have always been an animal person and right when I was born, I had cats. When they passed away, I bought a couple hamsters and then I got a bunny. After all that, I just want to add a dog so my bunny could have a cute little friend to play with. I feel that through the years I have just been building to this moment that soon I am just going to go to an animal shelter and bring home a dog. Dogs are just so energetic and cuddly which is what I really want and even though they are noisy it is actually nice because you know someone is there. I would really want a big dog because I have taken care of usually big dogs and they are just the most energetic dogs ever. Plus, I love when they jump all over me and think they are lap dogs. I have tried to prove to my mom and dad that I can do this and be home to care for my babies but I think it is going to take a lot more begging from me. I think they would not mind but it is a lot of responsibility and since I am in school they are a little more hesitant. I know I want to get him or her from an animal shelter because it will save this dog and it is defiantly cheaper. There is no reason to go to a pet land for a super expensive dog that could have came from a dangerous puppy mill. It is just always better to go to an animal shelter in my opinion. I just hope I can somehow get a dog soon and just make all my dreams come true. That picture of that dog there, that is exactly why I want a big dog because they think they are lap dogs and it is the cutest thing.

Mixed Emotions

My life just feels very boring right now. I am doing the same old thing every single day. It is a routine and I am kind of sick of it. Plus I am just getting sick and tired of the work and I hate it. I feel so behind in this class and that is always my downfall with any of my writing classes. I was great in the beginning. Going to the writing center for every paper and getting the help I need while also going to class. Now I am kind of falling behind and just so so tired that I need a break or I could break down. It was really just this last paper that got me really bad. I suck at thinking of ideas and I then I overthink everything and it is my downfall. But I am getting back on track now because it is very important that I do.
But I am also very happy because I finally soloed in an airplane on Thursday. It was a beautiful day, I was landing that airplane like no problem and it was amazing. So my instructor was just like alright if you land this one as well then you are going to solo. I did and then I got to land that airplane by myself the next three times. I just felt so good about myself that I finally got to fly after a couple weeks of bad weather and it just went perfect. This is my major and I feel like I am finally getting somewhere and am progressing. I was so excited as well that I called my grandparents and my mom and dad right after. I posted it everywhere and the comments of support just made me feel so good about myself. I really needed that though because everything was stressing me out and I needed that one amazing thing to make everything just a little better. I am just feeling great and I love my major.
