FInals

Finals are a week away and I am already starting to stress. I can't believe I will have so many big test in just one week. I will probably spend all of next week and the weekend studying. I just can't wait till Christmas break then I can not worry about anything and just hang out with my family and friends back home. I am counting down the days.

Thanksgiving

I am so excited to go home. Thanksgiving is by far my favorite holiday. I get to see all my family and I miss them a lot. I also get to eat all day and its always awesome food! My favorite food is stuffing and I eat at least 3 helpings of it. I am going to have to stop blogging though and go eat because when I think about thanksgiving I get really hungry!!!!!

Freshman 15

I do not believe in the freshman 15. Since I have been in college I have lose 10 lbs and am still going down. It is so easy to eat healthy on campus. Sure it is easy to eat poorly as well but there are so many good opportunities to eat well. There is also an amazing rec center which makes it so easy to work out. At home I could only eat what was in my refrigerator and could be microwaved. There for I ate very unhealthy. I just believe that with a little self control the freshman 15 can easily turn into the freshman -15.

Colts

The main thing I want to stress is the amount of injured players for the colts this year. It is a huge problem for the colts this year and is really disabling them from being the best they can be. Just to name a few of the colts that did not practice this last Wednesday are Joseph Addia, Gary Brackett, Austin Collie (Hit really really hard in the last game), Dwight Freeney, Mike Hart, Robert Mathis, Bob Sanders, Clint Sessions, and 7 other players. All that is left is Peyton Manning and he needs to do better than he normally does. For us to have a good season he will have to be the league MVP with amazing stats to end the year.

What to be for Halloween?

This year I have been thinking what to be for Halloween. I was first thinking of being a pirate and for our party down stairs for my dorm. The pirate costume was a little tight and extremely uncomfortable. I decided that I did not want to wear that all night. I then decided on being a nerd. So now I am rushing around trying to put stuff together and looking for things to wear. I believe by the end of the night tonight I will be nerded out and ready to go out.

research process #2

So far the research process is going pretty well. We have all decided on a topic and it is something I believe I can write a lot about. I like the group that I am in and think that it will not be hard at all to talk to them about our topic. I think we have found some good sources that will give us a lot of information. So far the the research process is going great.

Research Process

So far it has been very hard to pick a topic. We have looked at a lot of different things but it is hard to just pick one. I feel like every topic that has been brought up has be shot down by someone else in the group. I believe though that if we keep discussing topics our group will decide on one. I can see myself with the group I am in now and really believe we can get together and all find a topic we all can write about.

College Grades

I left high school thinking I was completely ready for college and that it was just the next step. I still would not say that college is hard but it is hard to get a good grade if that makes sense. I was not very good at tests, even in high school and I would always raise my grade by doing well on all the homework. The test are not impossible but when that is your total grade in many classes it puts a lot of pressure on me to do well. It makes it very hard to succeed in the class if your entire grade is based off of a couple of test. That is my thought on college grading.  

The Dining Plan

I am writing about the dining plan at Ball State because just this morning I went down stairs to eat breakfast at 10:10. I then got all my food and waited in line and that took forever because the line was so long. By the time I got to the front it was past 10:30 and I could no longer get breakfast. The meals plans are set up for you to lose money. The way they should do it is is give us 3 meals a day and we use them as we please. Another way they could do it is just give us an amount of swipes a week. For example, I am on the 18 meal plan. If I use 14 during the week and then am going home for the weekend I should be able to swipe it 4 times before I leave. Instead, when i go home, Ball State just gets that money that I paid for. I am upset because this meal plan is set up for us to lose money and also because i didn't get breakfast this morning.

The Colts

The colts finally turned their season around this week. My boy Bob Sanders still did not play and will probably be out for the rest of the season. I was truly schocked.....Not. But anyway the first game the colts did horrible. The offensive line was not blocking anyone and Manning had no time to do anything. This last game we turned it around. The offensive line was back and not only did Peyton have time to throw but our running game was there too. If the colts play like they did against the texans then we won't win another game but if they played like they did against giants we will win every game.

Beakfast for Dinner

I love breakfast for dinner. My favorite food in the world is breakfast food but the problem is I am not hungry in the morning. I wake up and never want to eat at all. When dinner comes though I am extremely hungry so I can eat all my food. What is even better is if it is a buffet. Then I can keep eating my favorite food for a long time. This may seem random but I just got done eating a breakfast buffet and it was amazing.

Fire Alarms

On wednesday night i was was woke up by a screaming alarm for a fire. This was at 2 o'clock in the morning and it was miserable. I put some clothes on and went outside to the freezing cold. We stood out there and waited for the burnt popcorn smoke to go down so we could go back into the building. In conclusion tuesday night sucked because someone wanted popcorn at 2 o'clock in the morning.

I Hate Mondays

Mondays are by far the worst days of the week. I have many reasons why i can not stand Mondays. First, reason is that I have 5 classes on Monday with only 2 hour breaks in between all of them. Next reason is that it follows the weekend. Friday and Saturday I stay up late and sleep in. My body gets used to this 2 day schedule and I can not fall asleep on Sunday night. This means I wake up Monday tired and in a bad mood. I also think most other people have this problem and they are not pleasant to interact with either. This also adds to why Mondays are so bad because everyone is in a bad mood. It is also is so bad because it is the start of the 5 days of classes. Even after you finish the day its not like you can even start to think about the weekend again because it is so far away.
