Graphic Design!

It has come to my attention as of late, that I absolutely love graphic design.
I love being creative and I love photoshop/illustrator... ect.
I think I'm going to major in Graphic design. Since I have most of my Gen. Ed. classes done, almost all of the classes I have left are graphic design/art courses. So it'll be fun : D
Just trying to update my life a bit.

Here's today soap box...

Credit wise, I am a freshman, yes, but, all throughout my Junior and Senior year I took a college class or two a semester (I have 22 credits all ready.) Here's a fact that will apply to college freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior year... IT'S TOUGH! Yes, you may have 4 tests in one week... even on the same day! But that's just college. This is no longer highschool. You don't get points for trying, and there is very rarely extra credit. You can't just go gallivanting around and put off all your work until the night before. College is difficult and can be time consuming.

GET OVER IT.

:)

LAUGHTER!

What is college?

A time to test boundaries and limitations.
A chance to grow and learn from mistakes.
A point in life where you begin to see a more clear picture of who you are.
Just saying.

My review of the Pumpkin spice latte

Today outside, it feels absolutely lovely! I walked from my dorm up the Starbucks on campus in the nice cool air. Once I arrived at Starbucks, I looked up at the board, and there was a sign for the pumpkin spice latte. Of course, I had to get one. OH MY GOODNESS! It is amazing. It's literally Autumn in a cup of amazing. If you like lattes and want to try something different and yummy... GET ONE! It's great. And by the way, if you get whipped cream on it, it taste like pumpkin pie.
That is all :)

Remembering September 11th, 2001.

"The planes were hijacked, the buildings fell, and thousands of lives were lost... But the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were an attack on the heart of America.
And standing here in the heartland of America, we say in one voice:

'We will not give in to terrorists;
We will not rest until they are found and defeated;
We will win this struggle not for glory, nor wealth, nor power, but for justice, for freedom, and for peace;
So help us God.'"
- Tom Harkin.

I was 9 years old on the day the trade towers fell, but I remember the events that happened that day quite clearly... I remember doing Math problems when my mother got a phone call from the next store neighbor telling us to turn on the television. I remember seeing the second plane hit the tower... I remember seeing people jump from the buildings before the towers collapsed. I remember the building falling down, and seeing people literally having to run for their lives. I remember in the days to follow as America cried out to God.
In the AOA play this year, the beginning was all about September 11th. And one of my favorite quotes is, "God did not strike against America. He only took away his hand of protection for a moment. And the two planes struck their targets!"

Tomorrow, please remember the people who gave their lives to save others

Yay.

Nightmares.

Over the last six days, I have had 4 nightmares about various fears. I don't know why. Weren't nightmares suppose to end by the time I was a teenager? All I know is I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep. However, I have begun to figure out ways to keep myself amused when waking up at 4 in the morning. I will now share my knowledge with you :)


Three things to do after you have a nightmare and can't sleep : )

1. This first one may be difficult for some of you, but if you have a sense of humor... This will be easy! Think about the dream from beginning to end. Add humor! If there's a bad guy chasing you, have him fall in a big pile of horse poop. As he's running, have him start sneezing uncontrollably and then fall over a bridge because he can't see where he's going. Have the cookie monster jump out from behind the tree and start chasing him! Ha, sucker.

2. Keep colored pencils... crayons.. markers and paper by your bed. When you can't get back to sleep because of a bad dream you can color! Call me crazy, but it works. I tend to draw really silly pictures which makes me feel better. This one time after I drew a picture of a barn and a cow, I had a dream that I lived on a dairy farm. I dreamed my drawing : ) So draw happy!

3. If you have a night stand by your bed, keep a book there! Or if you're on a lofted bed like I am, keep a book under your pillow. Make sure the book is really silly : ) If it's something you serious, your mind might try to analyze it and not let you go to sleep.

And I am now done rambling :)

Cody visited :D

Cody came down to LU this past weekend! And Woah! We had a ton of fun :) What did we do, you may ask. Well, we didn't do much :) We ate yummy food, hung out and talked, and did Laundry.
It was great to see him! I've missed him... and his hugs.
To any of you who are in a relationship is that isn't long distance... BE THANKFUL!
It can be pretty difficult... But I know that in Cody and I's case... It is also definitely worth it :)
He brought down a care package that my mother gave to him to give to me..
mmmmmm.. Pretzel M&Ms, cherrio M&M cookies, soup, and everything I asked her to send me.... Thanks Mom!
And he brought down a care package from his mom too!
Mmmm. Those warm delight cakes that you make in a microwave in like 30 seconds are actually really good... and pudding is awesome... As well as some other random things :)
And Cody brought me down a shirt of his (I've worn it a few times at his house for various reasons. One of the reasons is that Cody's family and I all got in a water gun... silly string... anything really fight. My shirt was soaked so I used one of his... the one he brought down for me : )) And he brought me a really pretty silver necklace for me to put his ring on so I can wear it around my neck : ) My boyfriend is the best. ever. Just saying.

We're cute, huh? : )




The pretty necklace : )





Back to homework... bleh.
