[i'll get back to this question later]
One thing that irks me so much when I'm at the movie theaters is people clapping like they're in a concert. Granted the movie This Christmas was pretty good with Chris Brown's singing, I felt it unnecessary to clap to the beat of his song or even clap to end of the song like they are there. But ultimately I was very irked by the multiple squeals and screams every time Chris Brown enters the scene the first 10-20 minutes into the movie. Teens man, so squealish. Maybe I'm just getting old.
I had a real crummy day today. I woke up this morning not wanting to do anything at all. I pretty much got up and did the routine of everything I do on a Tuesday. Wake up, lift weights, go to class, jumping practice, class and homework. Only thing I changed was go to class the second time. It was to the point during jumping practice that I wanted to cry over the mundane routine. I don't want to be in a rut! Anyway I ended up going to my advisor meeting to find out I'M NOT GRADUATING SPRING 2008! You know what...I always thought I was going to graduate in four years but now I don't care. I will be done with all my classes for my major and minor but this school says there is a minimum of 120 credit hours you must earn in order to graduate. That's BS really. I will end up having 107 credit hours done by spring 2008. Not sufficient to walk during the commencement. It doesn't really mean too much for me to walk but of course it means a lot to my dad.
"I tried dad, I really did to figure if I could walk even though I won't get the degree. But my advisor said that it won't be possible."
Anyway, I'm not totally upset. I like my school and the area and maybe I could do a whole new year being part time. I don't want to grow up just as yet and school puts my full adult life on hold. I like school and being apart of the school community. After school is done its harder to keep up with the school activities because your always working. BOOORINNNG!
Speaking of school activities/events the event tonight made my day ultimately happy again. Other than going to the school newspaper to edit crappy articles our new writers had written, the staff and I went to our Student Activities Center (aka the SAC lol) for free food. The event was Casino Night with MOCKTAILS (fake cocktails) lol. I really only wanted the free food and was going to resist the pretend gambling but after I ate some almost burt wings lol I was tempted to try the Roulette Table.
So I wouldn't mind spending another year here even if I'd be a part time student. I can take BS classes and boost up my GPA and graduate with honors. Or I can still take some semi-hard, challenging courses that I can get good grades in and also learn something for real and still graduate with a higher learning aspect of things lol. Either way I will be graduating no matter what. I'm not a college dropout (aka Kanye lol) and I've learned so much during my college years. Another year wouldn't hurt. :-)
Summary of my weekend (copied and pasted from an aim convo):
friday i aint get home till 3am cuz the plane couldn't land on white plains due to fog so they landed an hour away from my house where i had to rent a car with 6 other strangers....TODAY!!! they say we are on time but we waiting in the plane ont he groun for 2 hours cuz they can't leave due to weather so its got cancelled and then wait another 2 hours to get our luggage back from a plane that aint even leave
Last year I joined the Student Media (UTIMES student newspaper) and I was the photographer for Bits&Pieces. All I really did for that section was go around campus to ask people random questions and take a head shot. After two months of taking photos I was bored. Taking head shots doesn't really show my talent for picture taking. So I quit last year. This year I wanted to do something different. I went back in the beginning of the school year asking to be a Copy Editor for the simple fact I always seem to find mistakes in the paper I felt could be avoided before publication. Little did I know I got paid the most out of all photographers and writers. Whoohooo!! Not only do I get paid for just reading articles (not writing them) I can still write articles and take photos as well.
Tomorrow is my big day. I signed out the camera yesterday which you can see I took a wonderful picture of a white flower in the previous post. I also took pictures of my lovely roomie above and edited it. Today I took tons more. I felt like a little kid with a new toy. I was taking pictures all over the place. This is the kind of camera I really want as my own but they are "oh so" expesitivo! The flower pictures touches me. I made it look antique like just because it just needs to be! I like taking pictures, editing them and seeing if people like them. It has to be pleasing to the eye.
After a grueling practice at the track my other roomie wanted to have her own photo session. Thing was she didn't have a glamour kind of shoot like my other roomie. She still had her athletic gear on dirty still lol.
This camera isn't mine and I have yet to really understand it but I will use this camera like it is mine till the day I OWN one! I can't wait for tomorrow because I will take soooo many pictures UTIMES is gonna have a hard time figure out if they should use all my pictures or the other photographers. My name will be all over those pictures "taken by Ayana W." What!! You better believe it lol!
Here we are supporting our fellow teammates who are in the midst of the cross country season. Most of the time, well all of the time our XC teammates go to away meets and never have a home meet but this year was our FIRST home meet ever! Wow is all I have to say. Every year the track season gets a home meet but not cross country, I don't know whats up with that but I'm glad they finally got a chance to have one here because we love to support are teammates when possible.
It's such a great feeling to know you have people that you can call your family even if they are not your blood. I swear if I did not have track in my life I would not have experience such family ties with a bunch of used to be strangers ever. Last Friday was a crazy night in the beginning but with my ingenious ideas I was able to get my teammates to bond more. Go me! Go captain!
It started off with all of us going to this party where JCSU (a HPCU) students were also invited. As soon as I saw them get off the party bus I knew some trouble was brewing. Probably about a half hour of dancing and warming up to the music there was a fight. The fight got semi-serious and they stopped unexpectedly. Some people saw one of the guys try to get something out of his pocket which implied he had a gun. He backed up some into the crowd which I was backing up on and he said "I can shoot up everybody up in here!". I have never experienced anything like that and I was scared because no way do I want to get shot let alone any of my teammates that I love. After he was carried out I was hardly in the mood to dance anymore. Standing around to most of the songs I started to warm up again since some of my teammates were getting warmed up again. Some were just standing around as much as I was. Another hour into the party we found out there was a shooting outside of the club. That really made me not want to be there. The party ended up ending early (Thank God) but even before that we couldn't leave just as yet because the police had ordered that no one could get out until they cleared the area of the shooting. Because it was so early (12am early for a party night) I felt like we were robbed of our pockets for this club. I decided to invite my 'mates to my apt, asking my roommate first if it was okay. She said sure seeing as she loves when people come over but when I actually announced that people can come over she got all worried. Why? Because her room was messy. She trips me out but we ended up having a better time at my apartment than the club. Plus it was safer!
That night added on to my list of crazy experiences (not that I have much anyways). Its not something I ever want to get into again and some of us were saying we don't even want to go out to another party for a long time. But I just told them we really shouldn't go to a party in that area (it was the dangerous party of Charlotte) and also go to a party where JCSU is invited. That just spells T-R-O-U-B-L-E!
Lately I have been having difficulties writing...period. Don't know where the road block is coming from but my friend gave me an idea (an old idea at that) to begin journaling in a book. I used to do it a lot in my growing years but of course stopped as soon as college started. Started to get too busy to do any of that and felt that it was childish when in reality it isn't. I saw the 1000 Journals Project online and loved the fact some people journal with clippings, pictures, and drawings. It is just like blogging only in a book. I always envied my talented friends who are so artistic and can draw almost anything when they doodle. Me on the other hand doodle like crap. Only once in a while my doodles look good. But looking at the 1000 Journals Project I realized how ugly some of the drawings looked but yet looked very creative. My problem is that I'm always striving to have my works look perfect when I already know I'm not perfect at it. So I decided to grab one of my very incomplete leather bound journals I bought a year ago to start over. I tore the few pages I wrote in it already ju
