Today's Thought: America's So called "open mindness"

So I just want to get this off my chest. I keep my political statements and values to myself usually just because I don't want to upset anyone, but today is a different day. If I have upset you I am sorry, but this is MY opinion and if you have a problem with it you don't have to read it.

I just got done watching part of the Glenn Beck rally in D.C.. I didn't get to see all of it just like the end 30 mins. I have to say wow. What a great way of showing the right of free speech. I also think it's great that Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter came out and said her father would of loved that Glenn Beck is doing this.

What gets on my nerves, yes I know we have two very different political sides, but people that think they are SOOO open minded but then they turn down every idea or every opinion that they think is crap. Well to me that shows that they are not very open minded. I like to call these people, so open minded that you're close minded.  If you were open minded you would listen before you speak. You wouldn't interrupt someone if they were trying to give you their full opinion. You would take it in, come to a decision and you can speak your opinion back if you wanted. But you wouldn't give them crap for what they believe in.

Seriously, what has the world come to??  YES we have two political sides, but we are one America. Right now I see America divided because of what's going on in the office. Should America be like that just because one person took office. No. I'm sorry it shouldn't. I know it's not perfect and there is going to be some division because of radical ideas.... but I'm sorry America really shouldn't be like this. People are starting to turn towards hate if they find out if you dislike this one person and etc. Something should be done. The government needs to get their heads out of their butts and listen to all these people complaining around the world. We need to be united once again. There needs to be a change.

Random Thoughts for the day

I didn't get the job at Buckle, but I have another interview next Wed.. The interview is with a child care center with VCU health centers! I have a feeling I'll be getting this one. Gotta stay confidant right?? But really with all the nannying and babysitting I have been doing recently, I have a feeling this is the light at the end of the tunnel! Plus more and more interviews have been popping up that I have been feeling hopeful.

This thought is for all the newbie freshman in college, and for all the kids going back. Have fun, be safe, and learn a lot. I can't believe school is next Thursday for me. CRAZY! Truthfully (most of you know this already) I feel if I step one foot on campus I'm going to cry. I've been having so many issues with my college that I just don't want to go back...Maybe this is a sign that I should transfer somewhere else...but I really don't want to go through the whole making new friends process. So I'm going to try to hang in there. Just a heads up though, I'll be ranting a lot through posts and it might get annoying. But I'll try to keep my head high and thoughts positive. I'm going to try to go in this semester with a new attitude.

Also I feel that I have a handle on things recently. Babysitting is going well and I have been saving up. No more living on 20 bucks for however long I did that! But things are looking up. Lets hope it stays that way!

EXCITEMENT

As I'm waiting for my laundry to be done and my boyfriend to IM me back on Facebook, I decided that writing a blog post tonight would be a good idea. But what topic to write about? I work weekdays but have the weekends off, but nothing truly eventful has happened.

Yesterday was a good day though! My boyfriend and I had a date night and we say the Tiffany: Color and Light exhibit at VMFA. Let me just say it was amazing and beautiful, and the new and improved museum is spectacular! I got lost because it seemed like a totally different place than before. I just recommend going to see the new design of the museum. The Tiffany show should be done after tomorrow (August 15).

So this blog is called EXCITEMENT. Why you may ask? Becaaaaaauuusssse I have gone through ALL of my clothes and got rid half or maybe a little over. I'm getting some cute stuff in soon. I'm getting a skirt that looks like a tutu of one of my favorite artists statues. The ballerina by Degas! I'm super excited. Then I got 2 shirts that came to 7 dollars and a shirt from Francesca's Collection that was 10 dollars that looks amazing and classy! I'm so ready to get rid of all my old clothes that i have had for over 6 years. Basically all my clothes had holes or started to look like rags! So I'm just a little bit excited. I'll actually feel my age instead of feeling like a 15 year old! If you know me you'll definitely know how excited I am! I can't wait I think my skirt comes in tomorrow!!! YAY I'll post pictures when I get the chance. The store that I got it from stopped selling it! WOOT WOOT

WOO what a rush

SOO sorry that it has been awhile! As I was about to type my last blog post, I got this call saying that they have a babysitting job for me. As soon as I knew it, I was basically babysitting full time! I'm really happy to start making money. It's super exciting for me not to be worrying what I was going to do for the next few months with only 20 dollars! Soon as summer ends, it's job hunting all over again. Unless, I get the jobs I applied for at my school.

Speaking of school, it starts up super soon. I am REALLY not looking forward to it. I'm having major issues with this one teacher of my education class, and another issue with the Financial Aid Office. I found out yesterday (still am laughing about it today) that the Financial Aid Office has three 6's in its phone number... My mother overheard me saying this too my boyfriend and started cracking up. If you knew about my college you know sometimes the people can be super rude and sometimes wanna screw you over, or at least my family. We haven't had the most pleasant experience with them. All of this just makes me not want to go to school at all. But Oh well, I'm going to have to suck it up and get over it, either though I might add yet another year on to my education! Stupid tests that you have to take to get into ONE CLASS to start a class sequence. I may not be the only one in that situation! Who knows I might change my major from Music Education to a BA in music, that way I can possibly graduate in time. I have a feeling this blog is going to be filled with me venting about school. A way to get my feelings out. God knows that music majors have like 10 break downs each semester! So hopefully this will help so I won't be caught crying in the Music Hall lobby.

Anywho, I'm suuuper excited for tonight! Sushi with my bestest friend in the WHOLE wide world, and my most AMAZING boyfriend ever. How I love them both! OH, and I'm SUUUUPER excited for my haircut today! I haven't gotten one in a year.. I know gross right! I can't wait to relax before the demon semester approaches!
