Bring It On, Spring Semester

I'm ready for you.

Bring It On, Spring Semester
Communications Syllabus

As this spring semester begins, I look back on the past semester. I did my best and did everything I could to make it the best I could. So obviously, I'm going to do that again. But this semester, I need to improve.

Last semester, I did not do as well as I would have wanted. I did slack off some; I'll admit that. But I know what I need to do to get back focused and back to my work. I feel like I lost touch with some people who may have provided the motivation that I needed to get focus and the will to do my work.

I feel like I may have lost touch with God some. I thought about Him of course, but I did not feel as close as I should have been I believe. I didn't read my Bible as much, go to church as much, and I regret that. So I will definitely work on that also.

Maybe I focused on socializing too much. I did hang out with friends more than I worked I think. And that's not their fault, it's mine. But I should not have let my social life stand in the way of my future.

Nothing should stand in the way of my future career. But I'm the only one who can move past the obstacles that others or myself place there. It takes my will and strength, what God gives me, to reach my dreams. Nothing can stop me.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
