End Of The First Semester As A Freshman

It couldn't come any sooner. I still remembring stepping foot the first day trying to adjust to this new world of "college". Such a different transition from high school to college. Not as difficult as I thought though. It was much faster than I thought it would be. Learning came fast, tests came fast, presentations came fast, and reports couldn't come any faster. It was a change for the better. This is a big step in my life before I step into the real world and I have a long way before I do that. With a major of Legal Studies and an interest in being a Lawyer, I have a long way to go then be happy about one semester being over. Atleast I know what to expect now and I am able to be even more prepared for the future semesters. Bye Freshman: Semester 1, I'm sorry, but you won't be missed.

"Finals"?

"Finals" are here? How does one prepare for this "Final"? Why does this "Final" determine whether I pass or fail a class? Why is there so much pressure being put on me? Where do I start studying? Where shall I begin? How do I set it up correctly and accurately? This one test can make me or break me? All my work will mean nothing without this "Final"? Do you still wonder why people stress it so much? This will affect my current GPA as well as my future GPA. This is the one and final way a professor will find out if you have been paying attention and if you deserve the grade they had in mind for you. "Finals" are weighed so much and without a passing grade, all your hard work will positively mean nothing!

NEWS UPDATES: OBAMA IS THE NEW PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

I've been telling people over and over again, "Go out and vote!", "Let your voice be heard!", and you know what, I think they actually listened. Barack Obama dominated the election with the new voters and the young voters. McCain was nowhere in reach of Barack Obama in the 18-29 years of age voters. The time for change is now! Time for America to get back on its feet and become the dominant and successful country it has been known to be and with Barack Obama as the new president, there is no question about it that the United States of America will hold its head up high once again!

One

One stays strong by moving on. One builds strength through weakness. One avoids wrong through learning experiences. One stays away from the bad to initiate the good. One understands life through the obstacles involved within it. One will feel pain, but overcome it through patience. One who witnesses death can almost feel it. One who interprets murder, must be a murderer. One who sees life as gold is the successful one. One who treasures knowledge takes advantage of the opportunities that will make one knowledgeable.

News Update: November 4th? Election day? It's in 6 days?

Are you voting? Where do you stand? Are you registered? How do you feel about your choice? Is it right? Is it wrong? Is it what your friends chose for you? Or did you come up with the decision yourself? The most important and most talked about election of our time is just around the corner, but do you know what's going on? Do you know your candidates? Do you know their choices? Do you understand their running mates? Do you approve of their running mates? DO YOU EVEN KNOW THAT THEIR IS AN ELECTION? What did you think about the three debates they had? What about the one debate their running mates had? Are you watching them and listening closely? You can't vote, if you're not registered, are you registered? Is this election important to you? Voting is November 4th, this is your time to be heard, this is the time for change, are you ready for change?

A Loss?

Everybody wants to win, nobody wants to lose, correct? Sooner or later, even though some people deny it, they do lose. Losing separates the ones who succeed from the ones who fail. The difference is the one's who accept losing, are failures! The ones who look at the loss and move forward from it and never backtracking are the ones who succeed. All of my friends are successors, none are failures. If I hang out with failures, it might rub off on me and in this time of my life I just can't have that. The way I see it is that error happens to everyone, but the one's who succeed are the one's that improvise. I will always improve and strive for success!

Stress

Stress happens to everyone. Stress does not pick and choose whom it attracts. It occurs when there is a strong amount of work, temper, and energy being drawn within a human being, but not able to let it all out. Stress is not a good feeling. I've heard stories that lead to death from stress. Why is life so stressful to some? Some people take life more seriously then they should and that all builds up towards corruption. Don't get me wrong, life is a very serious matter, but not every thing in life is needed to be taken so strongly. Relaxation is key. If you feel that work is building up on you, just sit back, take some deep breaths, and relax. There are many things nowadays that can help relieve stress. Life doesn't have to be jam packed, it can be approached differently. A massage can help you, not only relieve stress, but think about the situation and other options through or around it. Life comes at you fast, and when it does, it is always good to have a back up plan or idea of were you want to take it.
