Last One

Last blog post of the semester, yay!!  I'm so excited.  Sorry, prof. H, the blog post is a good idea just not my cup of tea. But I do give you props that it's an easy assignment.  Wow this semester just flew by!  I have one more full week of classes then finals.  I'm really starting to get nervous!  This weekend should be fun though!  My boyfriend is coming to visit me and then take me to Indianapolis to see the Cowboys v. Colts game.  As you all should know, I'm a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan and incase you don't know he's a die hard Colts fan.  So this game is going to be interesting!  I really don't have much to say just that I'm really excited for the game, it's also my first ever NFL game!  Well blog post you've been fun, but I'm out!!  :)

Multi-genre

Here are some pictures I might put into my multi-genre paper.  I don't know what captions I will put with them, so for now I'll just explain what each picture is.  :)

Bratwurst Paule - Sold Bratwursts on the street downtown Krefeld.

Burg Linn - a castle in my town Krefeld

Berlin - Church that was destroyed from the bombings from WWII

The bar right across the street from my apartment

Berlin Wall

Brandenburg Gate

Castle in Berlin

Kolner Dom! - The prettiest Cathedral in Cologne

A play we put on- we remade Goethes famous Erlkonig

This poster was in our youth hostel to remind us to use condoms so we don't get AIDS!

Time for a break

I don't know about anyone else but Thanksgiving break couldn't come sooner!  This is a much needed break.  I absolutely hate when things start getting redundet. It feels living everyday was exactly like the last. MWF wake up at 8 shower, go to math, then straight to english, then straight to german, back to the dorm, maybe nap or eat, then its time for american nat gov, then homework, gym, dinner, sorority stuff or nothing, and TR sleep in till 11:30, sociology, homework, gym, nothingness.  I just hate how boring it all is!  There's a quote by Mario Andretti that I've tried to live by now,  "If everything's under control, you're going too slow."  I just love it so much!  So this Thanksgiving break will do just that, give me a break from my boring schedule like life.

Annoyed, perhaps.

I'm getting just a tad tired of pointless 9am classes, especially when I just use it as a study hall or facebook.  Hence where and what I'm doing this exact moment.  Now I would pay attention in this math class if the professor didn't steal other people's slides and just read them, but he doesn't so oh well.  Another thing that annoys me is weird people.  I'm not talking about the people that have the small annoying habit they do, I'm talking about the full on freaks like they dress completely out of the normal and just scream out for attention.  I just don't get it, and it really bothers me for some reason.  Anyways I had a pretty good week.  I went home to Indianapolis Wed night and saw my mom and sister so that was fun.  And last night I played soccer, which we lost, and then hung out with some friends that came up from Indy.  Tonight is Twister Tournament so hopefully people will come since it's for a good cause: Brain Tumor Research.

First chance I get...

I swear first opportunity I get I'm so moving to Dallas, Texas.  I'm so sick and tired of Indiana's weather, especially the cold, wet rain/snow substance.  Mainly I just hate the cold.  Look at Texas, far down south so it's got to be warm and it's also right next to Mexico.  And have I said one of the best things Texas has?  DALLAS COWBOYS.  Ok I do know that they're absolutely dreadful this season, but thats not gonna make me hate them or become a fair-weather fan and jump on the Colts bandwagon.  Hmmm...  I don't know which is worse moving to Antarctica or becoming an Indianapolis Colts fan.  On other news I'm finally getting initiated into Kappa Delta this weekend.  Finally!  Oh and my mom might get a 2 month old lab puppy!  We already have a 3 year old yellow lab, but the humane society of Indianapolis has seven puppies, half are black the other half are brown.  I really do hope she gets one!

Here we go again...

Do you know what time it is?  Yepp, time for another weekly blog post.  I actually remembered this time, but atleast I'm actually getting it done before class unlike the majority.  So what to talk about? I got my second tattoo last weekend.  It says "life goes on" and its on my wrist.  My dad just recently found out that I have 2 tattoos and wasn't too pleased to find out about them.  I really cannot stand being the youngest in my family.  Like it doesn't matter how old I turn that year, my family will always see me as the baby and that I'm incapable of making decision.  I've always been so independent and even lived in another country and functioned just fine.  I moved away to go to college and guess what, I'm still fine.  I really don't get home sick and I can tell that drives me family crazy.  i guess that's just what I get for being the baby.  What else is new?  Just the fact I've been so busy!  I'm about to be initiated into my sorority though so that's awesome!

Research Paper

I guess in this week's blog post we're supposed to discuss how our research papers are going, like our groups, possible  topic, how we're advancing on getting it done.  Well I can't really respond to that.  I don't have a group, we don't have topics, we aren't getting very far...at all.  Well I do know that Jaavon is in my group, so I guess that's a start.  To tell the truth I hate working in groups.  I don't really trust other members and i feel like I can get to bossy, because I'm a perfectionist.  Well I guess i can think of some controversial topics that we could possibly do our research paper on.  This should be interesting since we can't  do common controversial topics most people my age have interest in.  So here goes nothin'...
-electric cars
-free speech and being able to picket american soldiers' funerals
-health care reform
-NYC mosque and ground zero
-border patrol in AZ
I don't know really this really confuses me now...
