We got to work, work, work this out!

Dear Reader,

Yes, this song from High School Musical 2 is very appropriate for this week, not to mention this semester. It is quite a feat that I even have time to write tonight, due to all the homework and actual work I had to get done today. Moving into a new apartment is a process, apparently.

I haven't really gotten to know my new roommates yet. Spencer and Tyler are amazing, I know. However, I have spent very little time talking to the other three, Dillon, Nick and Cameron. They all seem pretty chill. Nick has his girlfriend over frequently, but she is chill as well. I think this apartment is pretty awesome with the people we have living here and the people that live in the apartments nearby.

Work is getting to be pretty jolly, too. This week we have been working the new schedule (On which I work 40 hours. Wahoo!) and we are getting to know different people at work. Today I worked with Blake. He's a nice guy from California who is getting ready to go on a mission. We are pro when it comes to mopping floors and taking out trash. Pros.

I'm really looking forward to classes and getting to know some of my classmates. Two of my classes are pretty small in number, not to mention several people are  in both classes with me. We will have a great time this semester.

Dear Readers, Ok, so I can't fit the entire title into the title box. It's a good song, go look it up: "You make me smile." The title can apply to anyone, I've found. The rest of the lyrics would probably refer to a best friend or a significant other, but anyone can make you smile. They all have the own way of doing it. Some are just funny all the time and you can't help smiling when you're around that person. I know some who take care of people so well that you just smile when they're doing something for another. Others you can talk to about your problems and no matter what they say, it seems to make sense and you feel better...thus a smile. Ok, a smile doesn't always come in that case, but people usually smile after that. Anyone can have a blonde moment and make everyone smile because of it. I'm glad I've got friends who can do all of these: have blonde moments, take care of others or have an episode of hyperactivity that you can't he...

Am I Proud to Be an American?

This weekend is the 4th of July, or Independence Day in the United States of America. One of my favorite songs during this time of celebrating the country is "God Bless the USA." The words paint a detailed picture of the beauty of the United States, both in a physical and emotional aspect. Our country is often depicted in a majestic manner such as this, making it seem like the greatest in the world and we often hear those bold words, "I'm proud to be an American."  With all of the issues that have been cropping up over the past couple of years such as impeachment, systemic racism, foreign intervention, and most significantly the COVID-19 pandemic, I have reflected deeply about what we celebrate with the 4th of July. These issues are just a few of the many that have made me wonder about the country we praise so proudly.  Am I really proud to be an American?  Thomas Jefferson wrote the candid words of the Declaration of Independence, which were th...

Dear Reader, Brad Paisley sings a song about how creating a totally different person when one is on the internet. It is a funny take on how people change themselves to look better on websites like Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, or whatever other sites you can think of. It is a song geared mostly toward meeting people for dating. I'll share a couple of my favorite parts. I work down at the pizza pit And I drive an old Hyundai I still live with my mom and dad I'm 5'3" and overweight ... But there's a whole 'nother me  That you need to see Go check out Myspace 'cause online I'm out in Hollywood I'm 6'5" and I look [darn] good I drive a Maserati I'm a black belt in karate and I love a good glass of wine ... I'm so much cooler online This idea of changing who you are online is something I have seen a lot with people around me. My friends and family have accounts on all kinds of websites and da...
