Home for the Weekend

It's a strange phenomena when you are away at college and suddenly you find yourself sitting in your house in your room at 2:30 in the morning writing a blog post. It feels out of place for me to be here. I feel like I need to be up in Flagstaff where it's cooler and doing my homework for the weekend. It's wonderful to be down here, but strange all the same.

So the reason I came down this weekend is because my high school choir is having their first concert and I am attending it. It's called Dinner Theater and its theme is Broadway, which is wonderful 8] I went to buy my ticket today and it was very weird to be standing on a school campus that wasn't huge. Well, NAU isn't that huge, but I mean my high school was very small in comparison. It felt weird to wander the cafeteria and the choir room/hallway. Being at the school in general was very strange and kind of awkward. I saw a lot of people I know, but that I never talk to. Some people, I'm assuming they're freshman, I have never seen before in my life. It's strange and conceited of me to say this, but it's weird when life goes on someplace without you. Like, a high school, once you're gone, is not affected and therefore everything that would normally happen within that school will still happen. It's weird, which I realize I have said a ridiculous amount of times. The same goes for home, too. Like, my parents still do the same thing day in and day out regardless of whether I am here or not. It makes me feel insignificant, but I know I am extremely significant because life would be a lot different if I wasn't here at all.

Isn't it strange the types of thoughts we can get when we visit a place we used to frequent?

Life

Life is life is life, my friends. School is time consuming, looking for a job sucks, and getting horrible grades on tests that are for classes in your major is heart crushing. That being said, I still thoroughly enjoy the class. I realize that I need to study more and actually pay attention and care for what I'm doing in my classes. You learn a lot of life lessons in college and it is definitely a place where things come raining down on you. You have to be fast and able to deal with the shit that falls from the sky. It's hard, but if you try you can do it. I need to get my shit together, buckle down, and try as hard as I can to do what needs to be done. As of now, this includes studying for classes, paying attention in said classes, knit like my heart depends on it, search for jobs, apply for scholarships, and work out. It's so strange how it feels like things can pile up when, in reality, you can take a step back and a deep breath and realize that there are many small step...

College Life

Aww yeee. Livin' it up, yo. I'm kidding. Let's be honest here, I do nothing almost all the time. I don't go to parties, I'm not a person who goes out much, and overall I'm not interested in that kind of life. I like my sitting on the computer or playing video games all day. It suits me because I don't want to cause trouble and I don't want to get pushed into something I don't want to do. It's the perfect life. 8] My classes are pretty cool. I go to Northern Arizona University and am planning on getting a degree in Electronic Media and Film (EMF), which is going to be awesome. Right now my classes are pretty blah because it's my first semester at college. Even still, it's been a pretty good first week. I have a math class, an English class, and EMF class, a communications class, and a freshman seminar class. They're all pretty awesome, but the best class at the moment is definitely my seminar class because it's called Reinventi...

Long Time, No Update

Hello my  lovelies, I realize that it's been a few months shy of a year since I last updated and I'm not sure why that is. All I can assume for the last blog posted onto the sight is that school got busy and I forgot that I had a blog. I keep a link to my page up near my tabs so I'm not sure how I forgot that this existed, but it happened and it's over. If I remember, and I hope I do, I will continue to update this blog with posts about my life and what's going on. I have a few other blogs of varying degrees talking about other things such as college in and of itself, movies, and knitting. All of which I have not updated either. I think the website/profile thing I've updated most since February would be Twitter so I'd go ahead and follow me on that if you really want to keep track of me. I don't have much else to say except for the fact that it's nearing Christmas and I am beyond excited about that! Maybe I'll update on Christmas about what I got...
