Sunday Nights in the Library Gotta Love it!
Well, finals studying is really starting to piss me off. All I do is seem to study. Today was interrupted by a baseball camp. I don't feel as if I can prepare anymore for bio. I study it all the time. I have read the chapters and I have an SI session tonight that I will be attending to help try to better my chances on the final. I just wish it could be Tuesday night so I can go home. I just need a nice little break! So late night in the library again. Pretty standard for any college student anymore. I wish I didn't have to study my ass off for tests. I wish it would just come to me and I would understand everything right when the teachers teaches things. But, I am not that lucky. I did just have a very brilliant idea though. I ordered pizza to the library. The new Pizza Hut big box deal. It was the best decision I have ever made! This amazing creation has two medium pizzas, five bread sticks, and eight wings. Yum! I wonder what we have to write for class tomorrow. I hope class is at 8:30 because that's when I'm coming. So I will see you tomorrow! Over and out!

Late night...early morning
Well last night was pretty fun, studied then played cards til about 12 then woke up at 5 for baseball workouts. So I am pretty low on fuel. Gotta try to study a little bit more today and slowly prepare myself for next week. I feel as if I didn't know the information earlier in the year, that I won't now. But either way, I am going to study. Ahhhhhhhh so gotta finish up my paper today. My presentation is done though, which is a relief. I just want it to be the weekend. I need to catch up on some sleep. I don't really feel that nervous, because I only have one true final the others are in class essays or writing prompts. You can't really prepare for them. I just want finals to get over. I am so tired of school and need a solid break from school. Ugh. I don't really have anything else to say, so rambling sounds like a plan. I didn't like the movie The Terminal Man. I think it was mostly because I read the book first. I believe it would of changed if I would of watched the movie before the book. Usually people have a bias towards books over movies. It's all someone's opinion. I don't really care personally. It is getting cold which is awesome. I hope it snows soon, that would be sweet. Well gonna study hard. Over and out.

Studying...
Well, I've been studying for many hours the last couple days. I am getting studied out to be completely honest. I have also been super duper sleepy. Right now just sitting in the library studying biology with some people. It is so hard anymore to get a room, but the key is to go around dinner time like 5:15. Then you are able to get a big room. But bio is one of those classes where you either don't get it or you do. So I feel like it is hard to study. So right now I am beginning to read through my book, every chapter we have gone over. Not very fun at all. So I figured hey, let's take a break and write a blog. Maybe if I even write a couple more than I have to they could count for the ones I didn't do that one week! I just forget these somehow. I haven't really had anything exciting to talk about. Everything is going well at school. I guess baseball workouts got moved to 6 in the morning which is good and bad. Bad cause it is 6 in the morning, but nice in the fact that I get it out of the way with. I am kinda nervous to present. I hate talking in big groups and presenting. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Hope all goes well. I love mountain dew. I have a huge thing of mountain dew to drink. Well I am going to study for a little bit. Then I will continue to write some more. Over an out.

How 'bout three?
I can't wait to go home. I'm not homesick, I just could use a nice little break. I get to see my family for Turkey Day and my pupppy!!!!! Her names Lola and she is absolutely adorable! We adopted her in February. She has been an immediate hit in the family since! Whenever I go home for the weekend, she always is with me and spends every night in my room. I miss her a lot because she would always wake me up with kisses in the morning. I can't wait for a good home cooked meal either! All the yummy choices, I will probably gain some weight over the break. Also FROLFING!!! My frolfing friends are coming home too and we get to go play all the time, multiple times a day haha. I love it and it keeps my arm in shape for the season. It is a very cheap game to play, unless you're as hardcore as me. I have over 20 discs. Ranging from 3-25 dollars. I love the game though and you can play it forever! We have 4 pretty nice courses around my house. If I ever got good enough, I would play in our local tournaments. I just can't wait to go home and see my family. I have always been so busy and none of my family is really close, I never see them that often. Just around the holidays. So Turkey Day should be a great day to catch up! Over and out.
Second one in a day
School is pretty fun actually. I never thought I would like Chemistry, but I love it. I love Drolet, he is funny and keeps me awake. I love math, and since Chem has a lot of math in it, that makes me like Chem even more. I don't mind Bio, I haven't taken it since my freshmen year in high school. So my skills are not the tuned for Bio right now. But Chem and English my skills are up to date. I don't hate Bio, I just don't really enjoy what we are learning. I am looking forward to Anatomy and Organic. I took those classes in high school and I LOVED them! That's what I really cannot wait to take those classes in the years to come. Right now English is my best class. My writing has improved a lot and I am happy to see that. IS is going pretty well too. Even though I forgot my blogs and got a solid 4/45 haha. I need to really get on that and start writing one every day just for the hell of it. Then I won't forget. I just can't wait for my later years in college. I love my roommates and get along with everyone here. I am really happy I made the decision to come here. I have no regrets. I tell all my friends back home that Wartburg is amazing! I am even trying to get my coaches to recruit players from my school. I love it here, It's my home away from home.
Well...It's been awhile.
I have kind of forgot about blogging. I don't mean to, but it just leaves my mind and I forget to do so. I will be doing a lot of blogs the next couple days to catch up. Just a little update on my life, baseball workouts are going strong for the offseason, school is going well, and I have friends haha. So for baseball we work out three times a week. And twice on Tuesday and Thursday. I am very busy with school and sports it gets kinda of hectic. But I love baseball and the team is all pretty cool. I cannot wait for the season to start, I hope to play maybe even start. I also hope that we are going to be good, which I have no doubt from the talent on the team. I think we should either win conference or close to the top. Then next year, we will have everyone returning. We have no seniors that will graduate. This in my opinion is a benefit for us. We already have a very strong team now that it very savvy? Idk if that's the word I'm looking for, but we are very mature from a team perspective. Well going to start a new blog! For all my followers, stay classy. But seriously, from a debate note. I think Global Warming is not happening, it is just the cycle of the Earth and we should do the green movement and recycle. Not do anything to drastic, just maintaing the Earth.

Social Change
On the Wartburg College Social Change chart, I fit under the Community Building spot. I participate in baseball here at Wartburg and this is where it fits. I think this brings the community together by anyone interested in baseball watching and supporting our team. Being a small community like Waverly, a baseball game can be a huge part in people getting together to support their college team. This creates a close knit community. If I know that people are watching, not just our parents, I feel like people care about how we do. If we are supported by the community I know that we will be very thankful for the support and maybe even do better from that.
When I read that story for today I really was shocked. So many organizations are losing members and declining very rapidly. It seems very hard to believe, I go to church whenever I am home and we support our church and seeing that people don't go to church or boy scouts or even simple town meetings is crazy to me. I was in Indian Guides which is like boy scouts and that was a huge part of my child hood and this created the bong between me and my dad being as strong as it is. A lot of these organizations need volunteers too and now a day we have a lack of them. Earlier this year the baseball team helped the boy scouts do a 5k run. I think this was awesome to give back and help the community. I know that I should do more volunteering like I did in high school but with the busy schedule I have it is hard to find time other than study and sleep.
