Last Blog!

Sadly, this is my last blog for my J Term class! :-( I am honestly going to miss sitting on the computer for 3 hours each day learning how to create a website. I am very happy that I took this class and I'm even happier with the things I've learned. I do not know if I will ever use them again to create a new website, but I am glad I have the skills and knowledge to do so. Monday will start the new semester and life as I know it will be crazy once again!!! Hopefully the semester is as amazing as i want it to be.

Lady Gaga

While I was wasting time on the Internet yesterday, I decided it would be a good idea to look up this year's Grammy Nominations. I was very pleased to find that Lady Gaga was nominated for so many awards. I was also happy that my favorite song, Poker Face, was also nominated for many awards... including song of the year. I personally do not think people know how much of an amazing artist Lady Gaga really is. She has the most wonderful voice and her songs have soo much meaning behind them. I know that she is often portrayed as a freak, but I know that on the inside she is very real. I hope reading this will inspire you to want to get to know her and love her the way I do. :-)

Spring Break!

I know it's only January, but I'm sooooooooo excited for Spring Break '10!!! Last year I went to Panama City Beach and it was the GREATEST experience I've ever had! This year we are going to Florida again! Uh I wish it was March! I am very excited for this year because I know so many more people and the group I am going with multiplied by 2! Plus this Spring Break Mizzou will be there, which will make the week soo much better! I hope that everyone gets to enjoy a Spring Break like this. It's really a once in a life time experience!

J Term!

This is my second year taking J Term and I have found one thing to be very common each time, I never want it to end. There is honestly such an unexpacted joy out of taking one class everyday for three weeks and four hours each day. I feel like I learn more in these three weeks than I do in a fifteen week semester. I do not know how that is possible, but I do. I also find it odd that all of the information I retain stays with me. I can recall the majority of the things I learned last J Term more than the things i learned last semester. I like knowing this because it will prepare me for Grad School when I guaduate. Whoo J Term!

OH WEBSITE... UHHH!

Today I worked on my website for three hours and I'm completely STUCK on one of my pages. I work sooo hard on each page, and it just doesn't work the way I want it to. I guess that's just life though. Right now I am trying to move a table down to fit my page and it just wont work. Hopefully it will work soon, but until then I will continue to get very angry!!! On an upside, I am very satisfied with the way my home page looks, and even some of my links look nice. When this website is finished, I will be very very happy with it... just getting there will take time.

Golden Globes

Tonight is one of the most anticipated nights of the year for America's Nation wide. Tonight is the night of the Academy Awards. I personally love the Academy Awards sooo much! I love watching the "stars" dress up in the most elegant outfits they can get their hands on. Tonight is the night that all of the stars will put their feelings aside and become good friends. This year I have watched many of the movies that are nominated for awards. Some that I'm really hoping win are; Brothers, Up, Precious, and many more. A few months ago, when i saw Brothers I was completely mesmerized. The acting in this movie was absolutely phenomenal! I have honestly never been more impressed with the acting capabilities this people have, and I truly hope it does well. I would also like to see the Hangover do well, which I know it will! Good luck to all of them!!!

Haiti

In all of my life, I have never realized how lucky I truly am after witnessing the struggle and pain the people of Haiti and their loved ones have gone through in the past three days. My heart has also never been so big. I wish there was something more I could do than just donate money. I have not stopped watching CNN since the day of the earthquake. The horrific things that those people are having to go through just kills me. Today I sadly watched a little girl give up her 3 day fight with the rubble on top of her. CNN has been following her since the earthquake happened, and today it stopped. It just hurts me that something like this had to happen to these innocent people that continuously struggle to have a healthy life before this happened. I am very impressed with the amount of help the United States has given the victims of the earth quake. I know that some people feel that the States should just keep quite and let them help themselves, but I do not feel that way at all. I know that if something like this to ever happen to me, I would have so much gratitude for the people that have the ability to help me, and did. I just hope that the help will continue to come their way and loves continue to be saved.
