Midterm time.... Hakuna Matata!





It's been a while since I last posted, so I have a whole lot to talk about. First of all, I think I made one of the best decisions I could for my sophmore year. You know how I was saying earlier about how two of my classes are just killer? Well, on Monday I decided to drop my American Government class and just audit it. It sucked that I dropped it, but I was doing well, AT ALL. I was not succeeding on my tests no matter how hard I studied, and even though I learned a lot and enjoyed the class I can't risk the bad grade. So, I am glad that I can still audit the class and continue to learn about our government without having to worry about the grade. I just really need to buckle down so I can do well in my Biology class.
So right now I am listening to my iPod on shuffle and guess what song came on? You are correct, "Hakuna Matata" from The Lion King! It was actually nice to hear that because I think sometimes we all get so caught up in our lives and get so stressed about everything that we need to take some time for ourselves and just try to have "no worries." I mean, over the past little while I have had a lot of crazy things happen to me, things that I can't control. And when something like that happens, we need to realize that we just have to do what we can, but just deal with the changes and trials. Especially when midterms come along. For me, I just need to study and do all that I can, but accept what happens.
One last thing, fall break was last weekend!!! And I just want you to know that I seriously had the MOST AMAZING TIME!!! Me and a group of friends went down to Phoenix, Arizona (which is about a 7 hour drive) and just hung out, went swimming, shopping and to the Dashboard Confessional concert! It was sooo nice to take a break from school for a little while. So, now I'm back and in the thick of homework but it's all good because I have more concerts to look forward to!!! And the pictures I put are from Fall Break- being ghetto, at P.F. Chang's for dinner, the Dashboard concert, and all of us at Hoover Dam.
I hope that you have a wonderful day and we'll talk to ya soon!
Stay fresh!
