Hello World, I'm Brooke Burney

A short background about myself!

Hello World, I'm Brooke Burney

Before I dive right into creating content, I want to make an introduction to my page so you know a little bit about me before reading my posts!

My name is Brooke, and I have a strong desire to achieve my goals, however big or small they may be. I will be a freshman at Oklahoma State University in the fall of 2018, and I am majoring in chemistry. I plan on becoming an anesthesiologist, and I am hoping my major will help me in the future. I love science and think I do well in the subject; however, math is not something that is easy for me to do.

I was a band kid in high school. I went through seven years of playing percussion, with five of those fall semesters being in marching band. I played in the front ensemble for two years, color guard for one and was on the drum line playing bass for my last two years.

Being as I was in band from ages 11-18, I feel it has taught me a lot of lessons in growth, such as learning to let people go and move on from them or stay in touch (like your friends who graduate, quit participating or even move away), how to deal with drama, how to know when enough is enough and most importantly, being on time.

Being on time is such a huge thing in band and everywhere else in the real world. There are two sayings I have for being on time: "you're late if you're on time, and you're on time if you're five minutes early" and "hurry up and wait." That being said, even if I want to be late, I can't because I start to panic knowing that I will be late.

I have always thought about creating a blog or even a YouTube channel, so when I was presented with this opportunity, I jumped right on it. I love to voice my opinion, and I love telling stories as well as quoting my favorite lines from movies or suggesting songs for a certain kind of day. Stay tuned and enjoy!

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
