Happy Halloween, Ghouls & Boos!!!!!

Happy Halloween, everyone!!!!!  I hope all of you will have a wonderful day today, full of terrifying, spooky, bliss!  With that said, I would like to share with you some pictures of how I enjoyed my Halloween.  (True, it was at a Halloween party a few days before Halloween, but it still counts!)



If you weren't able to guess, I was a Gothic schoolgirl for Halloween.  These pictures should just go to show you that alcohol and drugs are NOT necessary for having a good time!  ;)

The College Life is the Life For Me!


College is so weird sometimes.  Maybe part of the reason I feel that way because I went to such a small high school.  I was so sheltered at my high school.  I went to school every day with the same people.  I knew all of their names.  I could tell you many of their religious and political beliefs.  A good majority of them had the same feelings about...well, pretty much everything.


Okay, so maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit, but you get the gist of my point.  College is different.  You can go through a whole semester and not know the name of everyone in your class - let alone their religious or political beliefs!  Sometimes it is kind of nice.  In high school, everyone worries so much about reputations; in college, there is no need to. 

Of course, some would argue that the college life can be lonely at times.  That is a very valid point.  It can be lonely at times, but it can also be very rewarding.  You get to hang out with people who share the same interests as you.  If you feel like being alone in the peace and quiet, you can just go chill out in the library for a few minutes.  You are whoever you say you are.  There are people at college that haven't known you your whole life.  It's like a fresh start, a turn of the page, the beginning of something that will be whatever you make it out to be...

Dear World

I am sorry I have not written in so long.  I keep meaning to write, but life keeps getting in my way.  Between school, rehearsals, and my social life, I just haven't had much time.  However, I will try to write very soon.  God knows I need to.  Please don't give up on me yet!  :)

Drama Queenitis

*Note: While reading this blog, press the "play" button on the video at the bottom of this post, and listen to the song it plays, as you read this blog. :) The song is called "Drama Queen" by Family Force 5!




You just graduated from high school. You think all the drama's over, right? WRONG! With all the social networking websites, the drama can, and most likely will, continue! There will always be those drama queens and kings that make you cringe whenever you think of them.


I hate to tell you, but college isn't going to be much better unless you make it better! It's all up to you, whether the rest of your life is fun and happy, or drama filled and depressing. There will always be those people who try to drag you down, but they just want your attention. They don't necessarily care whether you give them good or bad attention. These kinds of people are just so self-centered, they want all eyes to be on THEM. Whether you are congratulating them, feeling sorry for them, complimenting them, or dissing them, they are happy. However, sometimes they still appear unhappy, to gain more attention. Maybe this is just my own theory, and far from the truth, but I have a tendency to believe myself! :)


What should you do about these snarky, ignorant, jerks, you ask? Ignore them! You will tick them off, and at the same time, you will not be wasting your breath on a useless cause!

Don't Regret; Dream.

What was your dream?  I'm not talking about the nighttime fantasies you have had while you were soundly asleep.  You know, that wonderful plan you had for your life when you were just a little tyke.  What was it?


I have had many dreams throughout my lifetime.  I've wanted to be everything from a first grade teacher to an astronaut, a flight attendant to a psychologist, a veterinarian to an actress, a graphic designer to a tap dancing opera singer - though that phase was fairly short lived. ;)

However, dreams are not just about a future occupation.  It is about what you most want to accomplish in your lifetime.  It is about the little things that make you smile.  It is about knowing how much potential your life has.

We must not just put our dreams from childhood into the bottom of a messy desk drawer.  Too many people do this, and regret it later on. Try to fulfill all of your biggest dreams in life - whether they are big dreams or little dreams.  If your dream fails you, at least you will have tried. You will always wonder if you never try. I know we have had this ingrained into our brains since the first day of kindergarten, but it is the truth!  You just have to keep on dreaming, and live your dreams. :)
