I really always wanted to be a columnist. It would have to be a mix between Dr. Phil, Carrie from Sex and the City, and Miss Manners. I want to make people laugh and realize that everyone is human and we all make mistakes but it doesn't mean those mistakes cannot be fixed or atoned for.

But this begs the question, (and yes Mr. M. from Military History class, I know you think I just used that phrase incorrectly. I'm truly sorry. Maybe you should have given me a better grade...huh?)--is it possible for all mistakes  to be fixed? How is it that we are taught as children that when we mess up we're supposed to say "sorry" and never do it again and expect for that to be the finite answer. Is the mistake "fixed" if I forgive myself or do I have to wait for someone else to forgive me first?

What about the mistakes that cause someone else pain? This might sound selfish, but technically I made the mistake so how can you get hurt and upset? Why are my mistakes always connected to someone else? But I guess it all equals out because ultimately hurting someone else hurts me more in the end anyways. It isn't possible to never make mistakes, but it is possible not to make the ones that really hurt someone else. Just make little ones instead, haha.

Blogging...fail

So I'm apparently really bad at this blogging thing since its been almost a month since my last post, haha. But yeah, I'm still trying to figure out what I really want to say and what I ultimately want anyone who reads this to think about me. Do I want them to think I'm smart, nice, funny, obscene (just kidding) or just boring? Maybe something really amazing will come along in my life so it will force me to document it for the world to know each and every methodical detail. But for now, I will stick with my "semi-charmed kinda life" and write what I feel and be content with just that.

I recently found out (thanks Mom!) that Disney now makes everything you need (besides shoes) to have your own fairy tale Disney princess wedding equipped with engagement rings, dresses, jewelry and a wedding destination. Who would have figured Disney would be smart enough to capitalize on the fact that girls who grow up into women never actually seem to out grow their need to feel special and feel themselves as a true Disney princess. Disney is a financial genius! (I've added the link so now everyone can enjoy it)

DISNEY WEDDINGS!!

Random thoughts for the day

1. I don't know if many people have heard Taylor Swift's song "Speak Now" and actually listened carefully to the words but it doesn't make any sense. At first, its a cute catchy romantic song which is 1 of 2 themes in her music anyways. But once you listen to it says something about this guy is marrying the wrong girl and Taylor's character interrupts to keep him from doing that and says that he wishes he was marrying Taylor instead. But if he had actually wanted to marry Taylor's character in the first place why is he about to marry someone else? If you were the one, he would be marrying you. Duh. Stupid Taylor Swift.
2. Pedestrians and bikers really need to learn traffic laws. Just because you're a pedestrian does not mean you can cut in front of people with NO CROSS WALK. You don't own the road. And just because I can't legally hit you does not mean I can't honk at you until your ears are ringing for days. Learn to walk. If it comes down to you versus a car, I'm pretty sure the car would win. Just sayin'.
3. My roommate/bff, Lauren, told me today never to let her eat boogers. Why would she eat boogers in the first place? And then I was informed that this is her mnemonic for remembering the white blood cells in the body. Still weird.

newbie

So I just started my first blog ever and I'm pretty darn excited. So what do I put on these things?
I think I'd like to start by saying that walking around on campus when its cold and rainy absolutely sucks.
