What the Hell??

Um so today I decided to face the music....I checked my grades online today....um it was horrible I received my first F in my life...I have never been so sad in my life for real I don't know why it was so bad even though I worked so hard to get good grades....I'm just going to work harder next semester....3.0 or bust!!!!!!!!

WTF

So finals are through and I am now home recovering...boy this was very much needed I have never been so stressed in my life I even got a few grey hairs out of it....boy it sucks that my grades where so bad...like I worked so hard to pass chemistry and all I could manage was a D.....life officially sucks but it's ok...I'm going to work harder next semester because having a low GPA endangers my scholarships...my friends will never see me again in their life....maybe at graduation....oh well I'm not going to think about it until I get back to school for now I'm going to enjoy my month long vacation...go to work hang out eat and sleep...I better do it now because I'm not going to do it at school any more.......laters

Finals???

Hey all, three finals down one to go.....it is funny how they put my last final as the hardest....um oh well I'll be home very soon and back to the most important people is my life......I'm going to study now and then chill out and eat and drink and be merry......Laters P.S. Just like I said he came back...I'm just such a great catch that some people can't live without me

Study break...

Ok so I'm taking a study break because I have a final in a few hours....at least this is Calculus which I almost understand. Unfortunately I need to pass this final with an A in order to receive the grade that I want from the class. I have been studying since 11 and it is now 2....I probably won't go to sleep till about 4 or 5 and then wake up at 12 in order to take the exam at 1....I think that I pretty much know all the important concepts except two and as long as the test isn't to heavy with those two concepts I SHOULD be fine whether or not I am is another story....well enough of a study break back to the books.......Laters all and wish me much luck...

And it begins......

I took my first final today and it wasn't so bad...to bad the rest of them wont be that good, first calculus on Friday then chem on Wednesday.......oh well...I'm just looking forward to going home and seeing all the people I love.....laters

Eventful??

So Saturday night I went out because I wasn't feeling good...boy was that a good idea....I went to the step show after party and I danced and talked and met new people....so much happened it was funny as hell especially when one of the Q-doggs danced on me instead of the other way around....plus I met a new friend from duke who gave me a personal invite to North Cakalaki (North Carolina) N E way time to eat laters

I have had it...

Finals are right around the corner and I can't wait.....however it just seems as though I have so much going on in my life, and very little of it good. My friends and I are having problems with another one of our friends, my so called boyfriend just became my ex....again....and I am almost certain that I am going to fail my chem final...but you know what I am a strong person...and I have been through so much more than this....I'm going to keep my head up and keep it moving...I don't have time for the fake people...and plus he'll be back he always comes back.........laters
So yesterday being my 18th b-day I milked it for all it was worth...I walked around campus w/ a crown on and had everybody even strangers telling me happy b-day...it was great...I'm really not even into b-days like that but it was my 18th and that doesn't come around all rhe time....I even had the FOOTBALL PLAYERS giving me hug.....and just in case you didn't know football players are REALLY big here so of course I was overly excited.....any how my b-day is over but I'm still 18 and I feel great because people can stop calling me a young one now.......yyyyyyyeeeeeesssssss.......laters
It's my birthday...yes thank you so much because I am now legal...I am heading to the store to buy some cigarettes, some lottery tickets...and I'm heading to the strip club 2nite...brother don't say a word....laters
In thirty minutes I will be 18....YEA I'm really excited...so excited that I wrote my birthday on every door in my hall....maybe I'm a little to excited but you only turn 18 once....laters
So I'm about to head home...back to work and finals and studying and all this other stuff....since I'm not doing to well in my history class I'm going to just drop it....I really don't need it so I'm moving on with my life....any ways laters
OMG I actually got some work done today....yes I'm on the right track...I go pick up my glass tomorrow(they are so cute) and then I'm going back to the library and to my old high school...and then who knows maybe I'll go out and have some fun with friends...that is always a great idea....
Sleep is a wonderful thing....I think it is god's greatest gift to humans....I love it especially because I am getting so much of it right now...not that I'm neglecting my studies its just that I'm well just trying to catch up on something I love and miss...well back to sleep...laters
So I'm home now.....yes.....it's not like it's going to be all fun and games because as soon as I go back to classes I have some papers and test to take care of and then it's final week therefore this week I will be studying my little behind off....laters
1 day left.......Here I come ready or not
2 days and counting
3 days and counting
Life is such a rush right now, I'm trying to make sure that I am where I need to be in my class so that if I cant pass the final I would just drop the course and thanksgiving break is coming up so I need to find a job for Christmas break while I'm home and I need to write a paper while I'm home and all this other stuff. It really isn't a break for me........at least ill get to see my high school in the football championships.....go crimson tide laters
Where did all the time go...I feel like all I have done is study study study mainly because it's right before Thanksgiving break and all my teachers are trying to cram some test in. But its ok 1 week and 3 days till break. Laters PS Last Regatta this weekend wish us luck
What another busy weekend at hand. First I'm going back Chattanooga, TN for another regatta, then I heading to home for an appointment and a job interview, plus I still go to get back here to be in practice and class by Tuesday. PS I missing class on Monday which really sucks because I never miss chemistry I cant afford to, I already spoke to my professor so it won't be all bad but still......I gotta go pack Laters
I am so stressed out, and this time it has nothing to do with school directly, My friend is being stalked and its progressively getting worse. It went from Instant Messages to Emails to phone calls and now visits. The police are on the case but its still bad for us when we go to the movies or to dinner and there he is......plus im having some trouble back home with one of my friends...hopefully soon the situation will correct itself...laters
In one hour I will be on a bus home.....I could not be more excited. Any how I have more exciting news....I took another Chen quiz yesterday and the most amazing thing happened...I knew how to do it all...every single problem...I was shocked...I was happy....I finished early, I was so excited I asked my teacher to grade it right there....GUESS WHAT I GOT!!!!!!!! an A- I got one problem partially incorrect and that was just a calculation error. This is the HIGHEST grade I have ever made in chem thus far so I'm very very very happy. What's even better is that the next test is on exactly the same thing plus one more chapter whish so far I am understanding. This weekend is going great. First I pass my chem quiz, then there was a Thursday night football game with fireworks and prizes, even though it was SERIOUSLY cold, then my teachers cancel all my Friday classes, then I get to go home....plus I don't have crew practice, and I don't have to go to work......COULD IT GET ANY ...
Today had to be the best amount of sleep I have ever had. I meant to study a little but I haven't had a good night's rest in a week, so I decided that the best thing to do was to sleep because if I tried to study then no information would penetrate my mind. On the plus I passed my math test with a A- which means I now have a B average which is exactly what I need in that class. At least I'm not failing all my classes just chemistry. Laters
Yet another chem test down the drain. I just don't know what to do and I'm pretty frustrated especially because my friends are doing ok now getting 76's and 80's and I'm getting well no where near that. I don't know what to do, I got a tutor, I take the practice exams, I do the homework, I go to class, I talk to my professor, and yet I am still failing badly....I GIVE UP :'-(
OMG I couldn't be more excited I just arrived home from my FIRST regatta The Head of Tennessee. It was so good AND my boat place 2nd. WE beat a VARSITY COLLEGE TEAM WHO RECRUITS and we are a club level sports. I couldn't be prouder of my team and teammates we all did such a good job. I'm SO EXCITED. I'm about to go party likes its 1995. Laters
Today was another bad day.....I feel as though I barely passed my chem test....I got locked out of my room with only a robe on and I had to go hunting for an RA to open my door...no one was here so I had to hide out in a friends room until my roommate appeared. Tomorrow is friday hence I can't wait plus this weekend in my first regatta...wish us luck. Laters
I HATE COLLEGE
Checked out the midterms.....not as bad as I thought however I must work harder if I expect to pass and enter the engineering school.....life sucks so much right now because a normal day for me is get up go to practice...go to class...eat...go to work...eat....sleep(which is becoming rare)....homework.....sleep and then the cycle repeats itself...and now it's even stretching into my weekend. I am about to protest....Attica Attica Attica....ok I'm done..Laters
About to go out and bowl in order to get out of the stress of not doing so well on my midterms......I guess stuff just happens for a reason. Any way I have to go meet friends Laters
Yea it's the weekend and all my midterms are done....too bad I got a c and a D....life sucks,college sucks, oh well life goes on
I know I know where the hell have I been....well its midterms this week and 3 of my classes (Chem,His, and Women's Studies) decided they want to give me midterms....I don't understand Chem half the time...there's one unsatisfactory right there....I haven't done the reading for History since like the first week....there's another one...and finally my WS teacher doesn't really teach and yet she is testing us....hmm what a dilly of a pickle. Therefore I am feeling that right now I will have 3 satisfactions and 3 unsatisfactions....that in my opinion is not good at all. At least I have a friend from back home coming to visit me this weekend and then next weekend I have my first regatta...not all bad I guess. I'm about to hit the chem books and meet my tutor....laters
So as I said before...Homecoming week and today was the game. We won but could expect any less???? I think not any way we are currently 6-0 if we keep this stuff going not only will we be ACC Champions for the second time but also we will have better bowl standings. I need to go out and celebrate so I'll check in later

Homecoming conclusion

I'm just now coming from the homecoming step show. It was great, I have to give it up to my girl Kitso and the Zetas, what a great experience ......Homecoming game tomorrow at 12 Let's go Hokies...almost done w/ homecoming week...how sad :-(
Hey all....lots of love to the whole world it's homecoming week here @ tech..Mike Jones is currently performing as I write this. He is ok but not really my type. Tomorrow is the step show , Saturday is the game and the whole weekend is fun and full of party party and more parties. Any way I'm going to rest up so that I'll have plenty of energy...after all it's going to be one wild weekend.
I thought this was kool to so check this out about me..... There are 21 letters in your name. Those 21 letters total to 106 There are 8 vowels and 13 consonants in your name. Your number is: 7 The characteristics of #7 are: Analysis, understanding, knowledge, awareness, studious, meditating. The expression or destiny for #7: Thought, analysis, introspection, and seclusiveness are all characteristics of the expression number 7. The hallmark of the number 7 is a good mind, and especially good at searching out and finding the truth. You are so very capable of analyzing, judging and discriminating, that very little ever escapes your observation and deep understanding. You are the type of person that can really get involved in a search for wisdom or hidden truths, often becoming an authority on whatever it is your are focusing on. This can easily be of a technical or scientific nature, or it may be religious or occult, it matters very little, you pursue knowledge with the same sort of vigor...

Who's the greatest college football team?????? The Virginia Tech Hokies that's who. We are now 5-0 which is the only highlight of my weekend.....why you might ask. Well after going on a VERY productive shopping trip with my friends, we almost got stranded in Roanoke......30 mins from Blacksburg. But after some quick thinking, lots of praying, and begging we able to make it home safely. I really need a car....N E one want to donate to a very good charity...The Please Give The College Student A Car Fund.(it's tax deductible) Laters
I know I know I have been missing post, but hey I'm a very busy girl. It's not easy to be smart, beautiful, and intelligent all at the same time while enduring the constant hateration people send. If you don't know trust me. Anyway at this time I'm about to go to Crew practice, on a Saturday because we did not get enough work done during the week. So I figured since I am up and none of the rest of the world is up, now is the perfect time to peacefully post. Tech has an away game today vs. West Virginia. We are now 4-0 soon to be 5-0....but WV is a tough school. Any who GOOOOOO HHHHOOOOOOKKKKKIIIIIIEEEEESSSSSSS !!!!!! Until next time, laters P.S. I miss my roommate, she went home for the weekend......but then again I sort of like the feeling of kinda being in my own room.....just a little
I am so proud of myself....I have been looking for a chemistry tutor and I think I might have found one. My chemistry teacher hooked me up with the Chemistry Fraternity (yes there is a Fraternity for chemistry students ) which offers FREE tutoring. How excited am I. Anyhow I'm about to finish my paper for history, read some chapters for women studies and complete my chemistry lab......until next post laters
Hi all missed you guys so much.....I've been busy helping my friend deal with issues that they couldn't really handle. It's amazing that even though we are miles apart we are still there for each other. I love being helpful and giving advice my hope now is that they take it. After all it is for their personal health.
Hi all sorry about missing the post last night but I was excited cuz tech is still undefeated. Really though I feel sorry for those other schools, they keep having their balls handed to them by the VT football team. One thing I love about game days is that all the parties are great. No matter where you go everybody is having fun and wildin' out cuz we won the game. I love this school.............laters
Tonight was another horrible day. First off like I said I'm sick so I am finally recovering but ended up over sleeping and missing work. This makes it the second Friday in a row that I have been written up. I hope they don't think that I'm making a habit of this because I really am not. My friends went out tonight but there were no good parties so they just came knocking at my door so they could hit up my movie collection. After all I do have quite a few really good movies. I didn't really want to watch it with them because I'm tired. That being said I'm going to bed. Laters
Yet again I am sick, I can't believe it. Today I actually went to the health center to get help and they gave me medicine and sent me on my merry little way. I mean they helped but I don't think the help they gave me was worth the money I spend on my health fee. Any way I'm about to take some home remedies my mom told me to do and hopefully I'll be well by Saturday so that I can go out.

Sorry all for not posting yesterday, but I was so busy that I didn't have time to until like 11pm and then when I tried to post, my computer would not let me on to the website. So here I am now making up for it. I went to go see my chemistry teacher today after having such a horrible test grade and she gave me some information on getting a tutor. I desperately need one because I don't want to fail chemistry....I can't fail chemistry. That being said I'm about to check out the links she gave me and hopefully I can find someone who fit my schedule. Laters
:'( I am so sad. So I have been studying for my chemistry test, going to help session and all that and I still failed my first test. I can't believe it especially since I put so much effort into studying. But the thing to is that I kinda froze up during like the first 20 mins of a 50 min test. I always do that especially when it is a subject that I don't fully understand. Luckily my professor drops one test so I want this to be that one test. Maybe I should find a private tutor because obviously I need serious help. Laters P.S. As a picker-upper I bought something I really wanted.....an iPod Mini so now I'm going to listen to all the sad songs on it and cry a little.

Like I said we would be tech is now 3-0, but can you expect any less from the ACC Champions. The after-game parties were hot cuz everybody was so excited and happy. I had a lot of fun but there was a point when it wasn't so fun. A friend of a friend got arrested which sucked royally but got off with a 90$ fine. I guess it wasn't all fun and games. Next Saturday we are going to extend our streak to 4-0 and spank Georgia tech's ass. I have a Chemistry test tomorrow so I'm about to finish studying. Laters
It's game day. I can't wait so I decided to post now because when not if we win I'm going to party. Then I'm going to come home like a good little student and study for my Chemistry test on Monday. GGGGGGGGGOOOOOOO HHHHHHHOOOOOOOKKKKKIIIIIIIEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

IIIIIITTTTTTT'''''''SSSSSSSSS FFFFFFFFRRRRRRIIIIIDDDDDAAAAAAYYYYY I have never been so happy for the weekend in my life. I officially call this week my worst week of college. I was late for like every class. I missed homework assignments, came to class unprepared and barely passed the two test that I had this week. I am going to go out tonight hopefully and relive some serious stress. Tomorrow I'm going to the football game them I'm going to settle down do some homework and pretend that this week never existed. Honestly it really was all that bad but it has been truly stressful. I thought this was interesting so I decided to put these here. You Are a Bad Girl You are 20% Good and 80% Bad You're a total bad girl, from your wild hair to tattooed toes. But you're too badass to even care if you're labeled "bad"! Are You a Good Girl or a Bad Girl? It's 50% Love and 50% Lust You and your guy are hot for one another, but you've...
Quiz tomorrow totally not prepared. I'm so worried I don't know what to do. Ok now back to the books. laters
I hate chemistry. No matter what I seem to do I just don't understand it. But I'm going to enlist more help because my first test in on Thursday....well actually it's a quiz but same difference either way I'm being tested on the concepts I'm supposed to have learn. Speaking of test on the first two test that I took in college I received c's.....that's pretty upsetting especially because my goal is to earn atleast a 3.2 gpa so I can maybe enter the engineering school. I'm pretty mad but it was kind of a wake up call now I'm studying like every night. I have a test on Thursday and also Friday. I feel as though I should do better. Laters all PS I didn't get football tickets so as of right now I only got tickets to this weekends game. :-( oh well can't win them all
Hi all hopefully I have been missed. I know I haven't made a post since Wednesday, but that's because I went home for the weekend. Boy was it an experience.......Lets talk about greyhound which must be runned by black people because every bus I got on was delayed. At one point I was stuck some place for almost 3 hrs when my lay over was supposed to be 15 mins what a hell of a difference. But that's not important what is important though is that I made it home and back in one piece. I had fun I did one of my favorite things(go to the movies) with one of my favorite people(VJ) It was a blast and the movie wasn't bad either.......I really wasn't home sick until I went home does that make me weird????? N E way I'm going to go and do my homework because I also have laundry to do....laters
I'm so excited because I'm going home tomorrow, well technically Friday morning but I'm leaving Thursday night. I can't wait especially because lots of my friends don't know I'm coming so it will be a surprise. The only part really annoying me though is the fact I don't know what to pack. I mean everything that I need is already home.....so I don't know. Another thing that kinda bums me out is the fact that I'm going to miss this really cool frat party. Oh well there's no place like home.......
Im so bored right now. I can't seem to find my roommate, she didn't leave a message for my or anything. Plus she left her cell phone in the room. I have my first calculus and history test tomorrow. I'm not to worried about the math test, the history however I havent read the last two chapters and I'm trying to do it now. My goal is to be done by midnight because I need to get up by like 4:30 am to get to crew practice on time. N E way this has been enough of a study break so back to the books I must go. Wish me luck on my test. Laters PS I got tickets to the first home game.......GO HOKIES !!!!!!!!!
Another day another dollar, today was my first day at my new job. It went pretty ok I work in the gym and I got to see all these cute guys get all sweaty and workout their strong muscles and all that other good stuff. I'm back in my room now, kinda just chillin out, I've got two test on Wednesday and I need to study but rite now I just don't feel like it. Plus I'm a little upset with myself because I missed crew practice this morning. I slept right through my alarm clock. I guess I just have to make up for it tomorrow. I'm going home this weekend and I'm really excited. I'm going to get my hair done and get some clothes and other very much needed supplies. All my friends went home this weekend because it's labor day weekend and they didn't have class today, however I did so I couldn't go home. I guess I should stop procrastinating and get to studying until next post laters PS I'm totally excited because tech won our season opener against NC S...
I'm mad tired. I was finally feeling better after being sick since like wednesday. N E way so I decided that since it was saturday nite I should go out. Maybe hit up a club or one of the many frat parties. I mean my roomate was gone and she hasn't slept in our room since like wednesday nite. So I got with my girls and some guys and went out. Boy am I paying for it now, Im tired and just a bit sore. I'm the kinda person who has dancing in their blood, for one thing I'm jamaica and for another I've been dancing since I was like 6 years old. Therefore when I go out to dance I don't hug the wall I dance. SO we decided that we were going to a club no problem we went to cinco de mayo, the hot spot for black people in blacksburg. At first no one was there so it was like boring, but soon people started to arrive and then it was off and popping. I started to dance and it was fun until some big foot bamma stomped on my foot, it threw me off my groove so I took it as a sig...

Um..the A.M.

Good morning all, I've been up since like 5:15 am because I had crew practice. Yes that means that I was up before the crack of dawn on a Saturday morning. It's not so bad once your up and awake. I am a cockswain for the crew team and this is the first time I have ever been out on the water. It was amazing, I mean the water wasn't exactly clear but the air was fresh and clean, it wasn't to hot, it was just the perfect day. I'm about to go out and eat breakfast with my friend Marina and her family. This should be fun..........until next time

Freshman Year: The Beginning

Ok so I'm now offically a college freshman. WOW I never really thought this would happen for me, I mean it's not like I'm not smart or anything it's just that well I never thought this would happen for me. But here I am living on a college campus, going to classes, meeting professors and friends, joining clubs and orginzations. Pretty cool if you ask me. Right now iIm sick. This really sucks, I didn't even go to classes. Oh well it's friday no harm no foul. GO HOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
