About Me

My photo
i'm samantha, i'm 20 going on 21 and i am a junior English major, but im not here to use proper grammar. im athletic but i also love to write and figured a blog would be a good way to keep up with writing and also help get my thoughts out in a constructive way. i have a lot of opinions about society, especially how i think humanity is suffering because of the "gimme generation" (details on that later). i write mostly poetry but also dabble in prose and want to get into short fiction and all that jazz..hope someone finds this interesting!

i'm a big kid now!

So. I have made some life changes the past 2 weeks. I have altered my sleeping habits dramatically. Anyone who lived with me last year knew that for me, going to bed early meant sometime before 2am. I was usually up til 4, had class at ten or eleven the next day, and constantly fell asleep or dozed off in class. I napped everyday and slept in til 4 or so on the weekends. It was awful. Now, I am going to bed btwn midnight and  1am. its a big difference--i am actually falling sleep right away and sleeping through the night, for once. I am up at a decent hour and havent fallen asleep in class yet this semester! I havent taken any naps this week and don't plan to (unless i get sick). This is definitely doing me some good.

I have also began to drink a lot more water because I was always getting thirsty and drinking sugary juice or soda which makes it worse. My acne has virtually disappeared since adding a bottle of water a day to my diet and thats sooo awesome! Anyone who knew me in high school knew it was a constant battle with my face to get rid of the acne. Cover-up only hid so much and I didn't hang out if i had a bad breakout. Now I just have to worry about my hair because its in the awkward "im growing out my hair and bangs" stage so its frizzier than usual and for some reason the blonde in it refuses to grow out!  i cut all the blonde out this christmas (it gets super blonde in the summer) and yet the blonde remains. I guess i really am destined to be a natural blonde for life.

Also, I ambeing more responsible with my schoolwork. I am doing all the readings on time, participating more i class discussions, and am getting my assignments before dinnertime. very unlike the old me haha. im a procrastinator by nature. i'm also looking into internships and am doing some research on more companies to apply to right now as i write this blog. so i'm being a big kid for once in my life  =)

however i am procrastinating a little bit...teen mom 2 is on mtv and i cant help but watch it as i browse the web...and play farmville to distract myself from my big kid duties of being a big kid. hahaha. oh and i have hall council tonight and i actually made the agenda! i usually write it up ten minutes before the meeting lol. im such a great president haha it like has 4 words on it but i know what it means so we're good to go. also anyone living in eisenhower hall--we are having a contest to design our hall t shirt so artists, get on it!!

kk back to reality and doing adult things again...as i watch reno 911!  
until next post,
