Thrilling Thursday

Right now I am sitting in the MSC where everyone goes to socialize and eat lunch together. I just got done with my nutrition class and then I ate lunch with my friend from high school and we were catching up a little bit. Then as I was getting silverware I saw Sara's roommate and it turns out that she could be living with us next year. That should be fun. She seem super chill and nice! It's crazy just how small this campus actually is and how everyone seems to know each other or always run into other people that you know. Or 'Friends of Friends' for that matter. I am excited for tonight because I get to meet the people in my Impact camp and find out the color that I am for the camp! I am so excited for this opportunity to make new friends and be a leader to the incoming freshman. I love pushing myself outside of my comfort zone and learning new things. Tonight after I attend a music concert for my music class I am suppose to go to rudder fountain dressed as my favorite music genre and apparently we play games, and ice breaker exercises. Then after we are suppose to go to our prayer team leaders house or our co-chairs house. That is when we meet everyone who is in our specific camp. I know that the colors pink, yellow, green, orange, red and aqua are already taken. That means that purple, blue and silver are left. Anyway . . . I am about to be late for class so I should probably continue later.

Happy

Tonight I am happy. I just found out that I made IMPACT COUNSELOR!! ME! I ACTUALLY MADE SOMETHING! I am so happy! Honestly so extremely happy! I am looking forward to meeting everyone on Thursday! I am suppose to dress up as my favorite music genre! So on Tuesday I plan on going to Walmart and finding something that will make me look like either 90's, pop or hip hop music! I am so PUMPED to meet everyone! As I sing the song lyrics to Alicia Keys - Girl On Fire I can't help but smile even more while I am writing this. Good things come to those who wait. I can't wait for this time where I can grow with the Lord and make new friends. This is going to be an experience of a lifetime and I have absolutely no idea what to expect! I think that is a good thing though because I have nothing to compare it to. No expectations. Just me. From this whole experience of rejection from groups and then acception into other groups I have learned a lot about life. In life we can't control what happens in our life. What is most important is how we react. That's probably the biggest piece of advice I could ever give someone. I am so glad throughout my entire college experience thus far I have remained myself. Not tried to change for anyone, thing or organization. I like the way I am and I don't ever what to change who I am to fit in. I am glad I get to grow from this experience and I can't wait to learn from the other people in my camp. I know I have lots to share with them too and I am more than ready for this experience. "Good things come to those who wait. Better things come to those who don't give up, and the best thing comes to those who believe." "Give but don't allow yourself to be used. Love but don't allow your heart to be abused. Trust but don't be naive. Listen to others but don't lose your own voice." My mom sent me those two quotes after I told her I made Impact camp along with some other quotes and they really connected to me. I will definitely be sure to keep you posted on this entire journey. I am so thankful to my family and prayer group for pushing me to go. Without them I probably would of never took a leap of faith. Most importantly, I would like to thank God. I can't even fathom what He has in store for me this coming year. Thank you to the moon and back. I should probably be studying for my two tests that are on Tuesday. Tomorrow is going to be panic day. I am happy. Things in life eventually work out.

Random Posts Before Class

Right now I am sitting outside of my Blinn Science class. Cause you know I'm BlinnTEAM yay! Not. Just kidding I don't really know how I feel about it anymore. I try not to think about it too much because I am just as enrolled at A&M as I am at Blinn. Right now I am feeling pretty stressed out. I have a lot of homework/studying to do and not much time to finish it all but I will get through it. I should probably stop procrastinating because that's never good to do. Yester day I was extremely tired and I naped during the day, but then at night when it came to the time I needed to go to sleep I couldn't fall asleep. Today I just need to NOT NAP & STUDY MORE. I especially need to study math. My Mom was aggravating the crap out of me yesterday, but I just disconnected because I didn't want an argument to break out especially over FaceTime. The leggings that I am wearing today keep falling down and I keep on having to pull them. I hope today is a good day and the rest of the week I am able to focus on what I need to get done. I know this post was kind of random but if I have a chance to post more I will. I'm about to walk into class YAY for learning. I honestly have no idea where this post is going.

THEY DIDNT EVEN GIVE ME MEDICINE BECAUSE THEY SAID I WASN'T SICK

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Lol I know I'm a little late, but I can't remember if I posted before this . . . I think I did, but just incase. Right now I am at the Walgreens healthcare clinic waiting for my time to see the doctor. I don't feel well and my Dad has strep throat. This would happen to be right before I am suppose to go back to College Station. The lord is certainly testing me. There is so much I have to do and classes start back up again on Tuesday. I think I am going to head back on Sunday, but I am not sure yet because I don't think any of my roommates will be back again until Monday. I am nervous about some of the classes that I am going to be taking but the good news is that I have Friday's off this semester. So that basically means I have off 4 days (if you count the time after Thursday). I think this semester will be easier because I will be more prepared for the classes that I am taking and I will know what to expect when starting this semester. As of right now this is my view from where I am sitting typing this short little letter.

There are 3 peopl.... Just as I was typing that they called me back. They strep throat tested me and now I am just waiting to see the doctor.

Don't let anyone make you feel inferior without your consent.

I hate feeling like I am bullied all of the time. I also hate feeling like I get picked on constantly. I HATE IT. It sucks. All I wish for is to be accepted and to fit in. Thats all I want. I hate the eye rolls and all the innocent digs towards me. With my friends back at home they get me. They understand me and who I am. I don't feel like I am being judged or that I have to change who I am to be someone that I'm not. I just want to be myself. I wish I already had established relationships in College Station like I do back in Spring.

Half Way Done

I leave tomorrow for home. I'm not even packed yet. I wish I could take a picture of my messy bedroom from my computer. I'm not that high tech, so I don't know how to do that. I have taken two of my finals so far. Tomorrow at 7:45 I take my psychology final and then I am going to stay to figure out my grade that I made on my Math final. After that my plan is to come back and pack my stuff up in my car and then go to turn in my history take home final at A&M. At this point I will have all of my stuff packed up and then I will leave straight from campus and head back home!!! I am so ready to blast my music in my tiny Kia Soul and sing at the top of my lungs with absolutely no worries in the world, accept for what I am going to watch on Netflix that night. I have begun to learn that things in life will always work out. Right now in this moment I feel as though things are working out. Now talk to me tomorrow, and it could be a different story. In my anatomy class that I was worried about failing, after finishing my final it turns out that in the class my average is now a 79.8! SEVENTY NINE POINT EIGHT! That meant that I pass the class with a B. I know that B's are considered "average", but I don't even care! I made a B in the class that I needed a good grade in! This means that I won't have to take the class again! SO HAPPY! I walked back into my dorm room screaming with joy. Another thing that seems to be working out is the fact that over the break I am suppose to be hanging out with my childhood best friend. We lost touch my senior year do to a series of extremely unfortunate events. I have learned that if things are really meant to be they will find their way. They always have and they always will. Life has a funny way of working out. I will have to keep you updated on how meeting back up with her goes. We are suppose to meet up at Panera on Thursday and catch up. I think that this will be good for the both of us and we will enjoy seeing each other again considering that we didn't end on a good note. I plan on telling her that I'm sorry for the way things ended and that I hope that we can move on as friends because I want her to know that I am always going to be there for her. Even though I know things may not fully be the same or we may never be fully friends again at least we know that we are both on good terms. I have moved on and I have forgiven. That's all that matters. Life is too short to hold on to things that won't matter a year from now or even a couple of days. Hopefully she feels the same way too. If not then I understand. In other news I am excited to go home and see my family. I miss my brother and sister. We already have fun holiday plans that we are hoping to experience with each other. Although it does't feel like winter or that Christmas is in 12 days. It's probably because it's not that cold and so far it has been extremely humid outside. Also ever since I have gotten older Christmas hasn't felt the same as when I am little. That goes with everything though. When you grow older all the joy and innocence is taken out of the things that you seemed to love so much as a kid. I should probably be studying for my final that's tomorrow, but it's almost 11 and I should probably sleep before I have to wake up early in the morning for my final. At this point sleep is more important than studying. This post is pretty random. Just like all of my other posts. I just like typing whatever flows from my brain. It's fun having some place to just let out all of my inner thoughts. I guess it's because I don't really have anyone on earth that I completely trust to tell everything to without feeling judged. I have people that I am extremely close to telling everything to. Someday I will have someone to tell everything to. I know it's somewhere in my future. I'm just not sure how near or far, but I guess that's what faith and trust in the good Lord is for. Sometimes I just wish I could see a little crystal ball and see what my future looks like. What things will change? What things will stay the same? I just want answers to these thoughts that are constantly looming in my head. Who will I end up with? When will I end up with them? Do I already know the person that will marry? Or have I never met them yet? I just need answers. I'm getting too deep for a post that was only originally talking about being half way done with finals. I'll keep you updated on how life is going post finals tomorrow. For now. . .

FINALS 12/11/14

Finals are tomorrow. I'm so screwed. I don't even know what I am going to do tomorrow. I guess I am going to just "wing it". I am just ready for it to be Monday and get out of town. I am ready for the month off. My friend was talking to me the other day and she asked "When was the last time that we actually did what we wanted to do?" That's so true. When was the last time that I actually watched Netflix or read a book that I just wanted to read for fun? Not in a long time. I want to not actually have to worry about homework for a day or worry ---------- This is where I stopped (I still want to post this because this post was before finals had taken place). I found this in my drafts and I figured that I could post this anyway.
