High School

I can honestly say that I am so glad I'm no longer in high school.  Yeah, it did have its upsides but now that I look back on it I hated it.  I mean I had a really fun time and made a lot of friends, but the rest was crap!  It's so stupid!  Like having to ask to use the rest room and getting a passed signed to go.  And on top of the hassle to just get permission to go, you have to be interigated as to why you didn't go before or why you can't hold it in.  Obviously I did not have to pee before this class or I would have been late and got bitched at for that, and if I could hold I probably would so I wouldn't have to be getting bitched at for having a normal bodily function.  And who could forget all the high school drama!  "OMG So-and-So is dating This-or-That's ex boyfriend!"  "Do you see what she's wearing?!"  "He knocked her up?!"  You get my point, it's all about what others are wearing, whose shacking up with who, and whose dating your ex.  The sports suck!  You have absolutely no freedom and you're forced to eat the same disgusting food everyday.  Basically, I can wrap things up in three words: I love college!

I Don't Believe in Titles

Wanna know what I don't get?  I don't get why every single thing has to have a title!  Well, I suppose it is a whole lot easier to find things and know what they're about when they have a title.  But still, I hate having to put a title on things.  When saving essays and papers onto my computer I often write a bunch of bull shit words as the title to save it under.  If anyone ever had to get a paper off my laptop they would be so screwed because the documents they would most likely find would probably go something like this: This Class Blows Balls, Yay to Fatties that Die of Fat, As;djlfh, Stupid Teacher, and the list continues like that.  Those titles are fine for me and my computer because that ranting title will spark my mind and I will know what it is, but those titles are totally unacceptable to put on the actual paper and turn it in.  One of these days I probably will title one of my essays with one of my bull shit titles, like Castles are Big and Old or This Essay is about Mickey Mouse.  That would be so much easier.  You know those tools on Word like abc check or word counter, well I wish there was a tool on Word that could read your paper and generate a title for you.  Kinda like when we were younger and taking ISTEP and we would have to pick the best title for the essay, well thats how the tool would work, gives you a list and you pick the best title.  Well it looks like I've done enough ranting for one blog and actually came up with a title for this blog!

Oh!  Last thing, I REALLY miss diving!  I can't wait for Winter Break, because I get to go back to my old high school and practice with my old team again, or they practice while we alums get to screw around!

Just an update...

I am having such a hard time remembering to get on here and write a blog.  I don't know why either, I mean it's not like I'm never on my computer.  I get on to check my email, Facebook, listen to music, just about everything!  Well I have been pretty busy lately so maybe that's why this just slipped my mind.  I guess that means I should give everyone an update on what I've been up to and why this blog just totally slipped my mind.  First off, incase you didn't know last week was formal recruitment for all the sororities on campus.  Thursday and Friday was first rounds, Saturday was second rounds, Sunday was preferance rounds, and Monday was Bid Night.  That probably doesn't make much sense to those who didn't go through recruitment, but basically it was just visiting all the sororities and narrowing down which sorority you want to join but also which sorority wants you.  You would think this wouldn't take much from you, but believe me it was absolutely exhausting!  You have to do so much talking.  But I can honestly say it was well worth it.  Monday night I recieved a bid, or an invitation, from my top choice sorority, Kappa Delta, so of course I took it and am on my way to become a new member!  That's what has been eating up most of my time but there has been other little things, too.  I also recently met my boyfriend's family.  I was really nervous at first but I became more comfortable with them.  I had to write my memoir for English and study for my first math test, which is tomorrow!  I'm so nervous because I never understand what the professor is talking about, because he basically just reads his slides and doesn't explain anything!  And to top it all off I finally caught the cold that has been going around campus, but thankfully I'm now getting over it.  And with that note I better end this blog and study for that math exam and work on my memoir!
