Why is American Idol still here?

Hey everyone,  please don't hate on this post, but I'm sure youre all thinking the same thing. Why is American Idol still on? It's like one season after the other, and most of the time the artists dont become much of anything except Kelly and Carrie.

And we see so many train wrecks who are just embarrassing themselves. And  the judges keep changing. The show is just lacking. Maybe Mariah and Nicki as judges will make it better but who really knows?

Dreary Day Thoughts

So, I'm sitting on the cold marble of a bench in the Hornbake Library of my school, waiting for class to start. It is a dreary day and as I sit here,  I am unsure of the state of my life.

I began the first week of rush last weekend and that was hella stressful. I want to tell you all about it, but more details will come eventually.

I'm nervous about what will happen in the next week. Next Monday could be the happiest or the worst day of my life. Rushing a sorority is like applying to college. You get one shot with each house. The second they dont like you, or think that you would be a better fit somewhere else, you're cut without a second thought. This is not like a bad grade on a test, THERE ARE NO APPEALS.

Well, as you can obviously tell, I am worried. I just want to find the perfect sorority, is that so much to ask for?

Anyways, for lunch i just had the amazing comfort of this massive chocolate m&m cookie, but now i am feeling the consequences. Lesson learned: dont eat massive cookies. There is no stopping point. I seriously have to hit the gym tonight or something.

Finally, I want the sun to come out and be warm so i can wear my new riding boots. Yup, that would be perfect.

Don't ever lose your Sparkle Falcons. RISE UP!

Ok, so the Falcons lost.
The world now knows this. I now will be rooting for the Ravens along with the rest of my classmates, most of whom are from Maryland. I was hoping for the Falcons to beat the 49ers, but due to some poorly timed timeouts, the Niners ran the clock in the last minute.

This was frustrating to watch, since the game was so close. However, we all know that the Falcons is a wonderful team. A football powerhouse backed by some stellar fans. Perhaps, the Falcons will make it to the super bowl next year. In the meantime, don't give up. Keep cheering on your local team and keeping rising up Falcons to the occasion!

Despite the loss, i am so happy that I got to attend the NFC championship game. It was a special, once in a lifetime event and I am ever grateful that I got to attend.

Last Sunday was such a busy day for me. After the game, my dad and I went to the midnight showing of Zero Dark Thirty. Now that is a serious film. Jessica Chastain gave a Oscar worthy performance with her die-hard perseverance to find Bin Laden. It is a completely different role from her ditzy role in the Help. I like her versatility in the roles that she can play.  My dad and I had the entire theater to ourselves and we didn't get home until about 3 am. This resulted in about 6 hours of sleep before I had to go on a plane to Maryland to go back to school.

Whoopee!

Don't Ever Procrastinate (like I'm doing right now)

In approximately 48 hours I will be back in college.
And what am I doing now? Blogging of course!
I should actually be packing, which is not so easy. Some how I am going back with more than I came with!  My room looks something like this: 

I have issues where I start a blog and don't go anywhere with it. Or I just forget to edit it, so on, so forth, excuses, excuses, excuses.

I've decided if I want to be a writer, (ok aspiring editor in chief of some glitzy magazine like Vogue, or Glamour, or  Marie Claire) I need to have a blog. I really hope that you, my followers will join me as I blog about my life, people who interest me, fashion trends and current events.



Some events to look forward to: my attendance at the Falcons Championship Game, the challenge of rushing a sorority, and the Oscars! (Rooting for Les Mis!)

I guess that I should get back to packing. I'm just drowning here. Or ,maybe I'll just go hang with my dog. ;)
Have an amazing weekend!
