Happy Birthday Sebastian!

Well today, November 26, 2013, is my cat Sebastian’s birthday, she turned two today. Now I know people may wonder if it was a grammatical mistake by calling Sebastian a “she,” but in actuality you’re wrong. Sebastian is a girl. Everyone always asks why did I name her that, and here it is. I used to watch Little Mermaid every night before I went to bed as a child and absolutely fell in love with Ariel’s best friend Sebastian the lobster. I always said the next time I get a pet, boy or girl it will be named Sebastian because it will be my best friend. There you have it and to think we really are best friends. Please don’t assume I’m going to end up being the old lady, alone with 20 cats. It’s just me and Sebastian have a deep bond that me and another could ever share. The love a human can have with their animal companion is amazing and quite cute. Anyway, happy birthday Sebastian, and I wish you many more! See you when I get home J

Military? Maybe?

I’ve been thinking about my future lately, and I’ve been considering going to the military. I’m not really sure which branch would fit me best, so I still need to do my research. A lot of military brats try to give me their opinion on which branch is easiest, hardest, largest, most respected, etc. I’ve narrowed it down to the navy or air force, but I’m sort of kind of scared of water and scared of heights. Something that I have to rid of before I join either one huh? I have people in my ear telling me I can’t do it, or I won’t make it, or once I sign that dotted line it won’t be what I expected. I guess it depends on the experience I get from it. But when people tell me that, it makes me more anxious to prove them wrong. I mean who wouldn’t take the opportunity? There’s always a spot for any and every one, you’ll always be protected, fed, housed, discounts, holidays, and best of all they pay for your schooling. You can’t beat it. Hopefully I can get recruited this summer. 

When Will the Semester be Over?!

Is it just me or is everyone ready for this semester to be over with? I mean we’ve been coming to the same classes, looking at the same faces, listening to the same prolonged lectures by our professors. This semester seems as if it’s been going on for over a year now. I’m so ready for Spring semester as much as I’m anticipating Spring weather. Winter break is slowly approaching and I can not explain how excited I am. The count- down is slowly approaching and it’s starting to eat me alive. I don’t have much planned, but I do hope to sleep for hours without having to worry about alarms going off every five minutes because I’m hitting the snooze, or have mountains of homework to look forward to. Hopefully I can pick up more hours at work and start saving money. I can’t really work that much while I’m school, but I do what I can. Sometimes I feel like the only student on campus who actually works. Probably. 

What's Up With the Weather?!


Good morning everyone! I’m not sure where everyone is located, but trust me you don’t want to be where I am this morning. It’s freezing here in Virginia, has been for weeks now. What’s up with the weather here lately? One day it reminds one of summer, and the next it’s winter. The weather changes so dramatically. You would swear it was bipolar. This is the time of year when everyone tends to get sick of course. I know I caught a slight cold. My throat is practically begging for reliefs from the constant coughing, my eyes are red, including my nose. If one didn’t know better they would swear I was Rudolph. I hate being sick. The only significance was actually having a legitimate excuse to not show up to classes, but then again back fired because I’m now behind. I’ve laid up in bed for a few days. My parents have forced prescription drugs down my throat and nothing seems to subside my condition. I used to love sleeping in, but now I dread it because I toss and turn and have the most random nightmares. I love eating chicken soup though. It warms my whole body like a fire was lit in the pit of my stomach. It relaxes me and makes me feel slightly better.
