I finally have something to talk about in my blog. Yay! Although I am sure some you will not like the topic that I am about to talk about. I went to the midnight premiere of the Hunger Games and let me say it is the best movie I have ever seen since the last Harry Potter movie. I did not read the entire book before I saw the movie, but I did read about half and I was so intrigued by the whole concept of the book. I have never gone to a movie before I have read the book but I honestly think I might read half the book from now on. After the movie got through all the parts of the story I read, I was on the edge of my seat the entire movie. I did not know what was going to happen because, of course, I had not read the whole book, but I was involved enough to be interested in the entire movie. Let’s get away from this topic of the movie. The movie has tons of action, surprises, and some horrific scenes. The plot could seriously happen one day and that is what makes it scary. Next, Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth-what hotties! They are all such beautiful people, inside and out. I am not all the way through the first book but at the moment I am in love with BOTH Peeta and Gale. Why can’t all men be this way?! I know it is a book but a girl can wish. I can not believe how happy I am with this movie. It was so close to the book that I really do not have any complaints. Well I guess I need to get off and go finish the rest of this book so I can start the second one. The main part of this blog, GO SEE THE HUNGER GAMES!

Stupid Girls
Do you have that one friend that is just a constant hypocrite? Well I do and I need to vent. I have a couple of girlfriends from high school that I still talk to on a regular basis. One is very shy, and naïve, like me, and the other is very open and has had many “experiences.” We will call the shy one Breanna and the outgoing one Jessica. Jessica has always talked about her experiences including sex, drugs, etc. We as friends have always talked to each other about this because that is what friends do right? Well Breanna was talking to Jessica’s boyfriend, they talk on a normal basis because we all get along so well, and Jessica’s boyfriend asked Breanna if her four year relationship had ever “settled down.” First off, how is that any of his business what she does? Of course, she says no and Jessica’s boyfriend says well Jessica and I do. Breanna just ignored the text and changed the conversation. Jessica was on his phone when she saw the text message a couple of days later. She called Breanna screaming about how it was none of her business to ask and why would she even do that. Breanna tried to explain, but Jessica did not want to hear anything. They worked out the problems and are fine now, but I just find it absolutely ridiculous. I know this is a lot of drama and I know it’s childish but I cannot stand hypocrites. Jessica is the type of person to talk to ANYBODY about what is going on in her life. How in the world can she get mad at Breanna for something she didn’t even ask?!? Also, Breanna just isn’t the type of person to call somebody up and ask, “Did you and Jessica have sex today? Tell me about.” I just do not understand. Maybe she was in a bad mood, maybe she needed to vent, or maybe she has just changed. It has just really upset me that she wouldn’t even listen to Breanna and get her side of the story first. I am sure many of you have a friend like this. I just wanted to let you know you are DEFINITELY not alone.

Spring Break!
As I promised, I am watching Big Bang
Theory in the comfort of my living room. This show is so funny.
Anybody who does not like this show does not have a funny bone in
their body or probably just do not understand it like my lovely
seventeen year old sister. I am moving houses and it has made my
Spring Break a tad bit more stressful than I wanted it to be. I love
the house. It accommodates all of my siblings, along with a playhouse
for my youngest sister, many trees for the boys, a river within
walking distance, a huge fire pit and a swimming pool. I am going to
love summer. My only problem is that it is a good twenty to thirty
minutes away from the school and to my father's house. Since I travel
back and forth, that would be an outstanding amount of gas money that
I just do not have. Also, since my job is about to be terminated
since it is a seasonal job, I am going to need money and need it
fast. My mom and dad are very willing to help, but isn't the whole
point of being eighteen being able to take care of yourself? I guess
I just have to much pride. I want to do it by myself. Hopefully, I
will be able to take all my classes online during the summer, so then
I will not have to worry about the gas. That is probably what I love
most about college. I can take all my classes online and not have to
worry about all my money going towards gas. Thank you Jesus! Spring
Break is officially over and I am very upset, but this semester is
going by a lot faster then the last.

The Usual Stuff
I am completely stressed out over this Biology exam. I just took my midterm in English and I am not happy with it. Gosh, I could go to a mountain and scream right now! Spring break needs to come as fast as possible. I really do not have any huge topics to talk about. Okay, maybe one or two. Gas prices are too high and they need to come down now. That’s the end of that conversation. No questions and no discussing. Second it upsets me that so many kids do not listen to a wide variety of music. They just stick to their own group that they have listened to their entire life. I have grown up in a musical background with all of my family being in some type of music program, so to me it is essential for kids to explore their horizon and find a new type of music. This does not mean that you have to love that other music. It just means to appreciate it and gain from the experience. Now, I know I said new found love in the following sentence but maybe this explains it a little better. If you have had a dog for years than you will probably love that dog or that same kind of dog forever, but does that mean that you do not need to explore your options and see if you would not mind having another dog to love. Although your chocolate lab will always be your favorite, you could still love your new poodle. Does that make sense? Probably not. Those are all the topics I have for discussion. I guess I am going to go make myself sick over this lab practical. Next week’s blog will be made from the comfort of my bed, watching Big Bang Theory, and not having a single care in the world.

College Student
I cannot wait for this Spring Break. I am completely exhausted and cannot wait to get home and watch my Monday episode of Pretty Little Liars, the best show ever if you did not know. Anyway, my day was very enjoyable, but exhausting. I found out Sunday night that my Music Appreciation class was cancelled. I was absolutely ecstatic until I found out that our instructor’s mother had passed away. I was than very ashamed that I was so excited about my class being cancelled, but I did not know that was the reason why he cancelled so I guess I cannot be to upset with myself. This week was supposed to chaotic, but everything got pushed to the next week. Isn’t that great? English was actually really fun today. We gave our papers to others and let them comment on them. We were all laughing about the things we had put for our paper and our constant ability to pick the same topic as everybody else on our row. Math was very boring as usual. I love my instructor but I am not engaged in what he is doing. Honestly, it makes me miss my high school math teacher so much. Also, I know all of the stuff that we are doing. I do not want to sound like a know it all, but the last math I took was AP Calculus. I went from AP Calculus to College Algebra. Really? I am having pizza for dinner tonight, one of my favorites. Most people do not really like pizza, but I quite enjoy it. My favorite foods would have to be Italian or Mexican. Anyway, back on subject. Well, I am at school and need to get home so I can eat my pizza and get back for my Biology class.

Daily Wal-mart Shopping
As I was walking into Wal-Mart today, I saw the same homeless man that stands by the same yucky, brown wall every day. He doesn’t ask for anything ever, so as usual I just walked on into Wal-Mart. When I was done shopping, I came out through the same door and saw a woman, about my age, giving the homeless man a cart full of food. He just stood there with his mouth wide open and stammering through sentences. She told him that the cart was all for him and he could do with it as he pleased. He started to cry and I had to walk away before I started to do the same.
I think many people not born in the Millennial Generation have a certain mind set of the Millennial Generation. I am not saying that all have this mind set, but many do. The mindset is that we are lazy, sheltered, selfish individuals who do not know hard work if it were to bite us on the leg. I want to say something to those individuals. You have it all wrong. I am not going to say that we have don’t have some problems in our generation but what generation doesn’t? There are rude, selfish, and inconsiderate people in out generation, but if you come to know most of us were not like that at all. Many of us see the daily disrespect and constant rudeness and think, how in the world can a person talk to another person like he/she just did? This woman did the whole Millennial Generation a favor by showing that we can be very gracious, giving people. That woman worked very hard to earn that money, then she went and took her time to shop for somebody she didn’t even know, but yet we are lazy, selfish individuals.
Now, if you want to sit here and still say the same things about this generation then be my guest, but all I have to say is I am proud to be a part of this generation and cannot wait for what is to come from my group.

Happy Days
What to write, what to write. I
guess I will start off with what I did today. I worked an eight hour shift
today at my office location. I came in with my head held high, as I thought it
was going to be an “okay” day, of course, it was not. I had a client, who was
first of all late for her first appointment, that wanted to reschedule her
appointment for a later time. All of our times were booked until later in the
afternoon. My boss does not like the fact that we “turn away” clients, but she
also does not like the fact that we schedule appointments thirty minutes apart
from each other. I was in a catch twenty two. So I went to my work partner and
asked her if she would help me with the situation. We both went together to
tell my boss and she was completely applauded that we would ask such a
question. She told us that we should know what to do and she did not know why she
was answering this question. The entire time after that it seemed that I could
not do anything right. Work was just awful. That is the word for it, awful. I
almost feel like I do not know what to do because I do not feel like I’m doing
anything wrong. I did not want any walk-ins to wait for a long period of time if
I put her in, but I also did not want to make her mad. Oh well, guess you can’t
make everybody happy, right? After work, I went tanning for the third time in
my life. I am scared to death of getting cancer, especially skin, so I stood
and asked the manager probably thirty questions about what I should do to make
sure I did not get cancer. Then I came home fixed myself a glass of milk, some
honey barbecue chips and typed my blog. Goodness I complain a lot in these
blogs. I need to find some happy topics.
