Weekly Roundup 4: We're Halfway Thereeeeee....

Yo my CU peoples!

Sorry I didn't write the blog yesterday, I was too busy watching the GIANTS DOMINATE THE PATRIOTS Y'ALL :D

And, now the blog.

5 Best Things This Week:
1) I got an A on my Spanish Test
2) I donated blood
3) I went to a very fun birthday party!
4) I have a really fun project idea for my School and Society class
5) SUUUUUPER BOWL :D

5 Worst Things This Week:
1) I fainted AFTER giving blood
2) I'm pretty broke until this Friday
3) Still not talking as much in my classes
4) I've been super busy for like 2 weeks now
5) I've spent a TON of my dining dollars

Most Embarrassing Moment This Week:
Alright, on Friday going through Saturday, I had a lot of sugar/caffeine. So, at dinner Saturday, I was super revved up and overly energetic in the Caf. Add in two guys that I kinda, sorta like, and I was a basket of nerves. So, the whole meal I was just psychotic and on edge.

Words of Wisdom:
If you beat yourself up or are prone to panicking, or just can be an excitable person, then you probably have heard OVER AND OVER people telling you to calm down. I can't even count how many times I have heard people say "Dude, calm down" or "It's not a big deal" or "It's just..." or wanting to give me advice on how to make my seemingly big issue a non-issue. Okay, I get it everyone. I UNDERSTAND that sometimes I panic more than I need to. But it's just who I am. Also, if I am just being bubbly and exciting, nothing deflates my happiness faster than someone telling me "Dude, calm down, it's not a big deal". I guess I just wanted to complain. I suppose my words of wisdom is if someone tells you to chill, take three deep breaths before saying "Don't worry, I just need my moment". Because you know what? You might just need a moment and that is perfectly OKAY.

3 Most Essential Items This Week:
1) Water. Passing out is not fun. Drink plenty of water (and juice/Gatorade)  before and after anything that is strenuous to your body, whether that be dance, a blood donation, a meet, a game, or a marathon.
2) A Good Advising Relationship. I went to go talk to my adviser. It was really nice because I was able to actually talk out some of my academic plans with him, and I was able to make the decision to drop Education Studies from a major to a minor. I will be doing a blog soon about majors, minors, academic planning, and the truth of change.
3) Chips and Dip. Hey, it was Super Bowl Sunday after all :D

Most Interesting Discovery This Week:
Academic: Some states are trying to opt out of NCLB or at least change some requirements. Some of the states are doing it because of cheating scandals :O
Social: I might never get tired of Johnny Depp being a pirate. He's so damn funny :D

Best Food in the Caf:
I discovered the panini maker this week. Simultaneously, I discovered the basil pesto spread. My life will never be the same again.

My Weekend:
This was seriously one of the best weekends I have had in college. Friday night I began the first part of my project and went to sleep early. Slept in on Saturday. Went to lunch where there was a guy dressed up as a groundhog for Groundhog's Day (I fell in love). After getting a cup of "dirt" with gummy worms, I went shopping in town! Saturday night I went to a super fun birthday party, complete with Apples to Apples and Pirates of the Caribbean. Sunday, I did laundry, worked out, finished homework, WATCHED THE SUPER BOWL, and went to a fun APO meeting! Phewww, busy busy!!

Good Night and Good Luck,
Edward R. Murrow

Much Love,
