Number 1.

So this is my first "real" blog post. The only other blogs I have done have been for art classes as a way of sharing art. I've never had enough...motivation...to write a blog about life. Granted, since I am an artist, I will probably be posting some of that occasionally, but this will mostly be an outlet for me to talk about my daily happenings. I don't have a lot of crazy and cool stories or experiences that happen from day to day, but I figured I may as well just give it a shot. I'm sure if you've read this far you find me somewhat interesting.

So, since it is a little over halfway through my day, I'll talk about the things that have happened so far. First off, my Mythology teacher is a little too kooky for my tastes. And not kooky in the school science teacher kind of way. Kooky in the way that she has us turn in yellow folders with all of the papers for a unit (which are also yellow). She feels the need to call out our names for attendance instead of just do a sign in sheet or some sort of activity to show that we were there. But I think the thing that gets me the most is that she doesn't actually teach. She is more of a facilitator and we have to learn about the topics in class completely outside of class. Maybe some people are okay with that, but I don't like paying for a babysitter when I'm 19 years old.

With school being the main focus in my life, I have had basically no time to hangout with my friends. This semester, the only time I have spent time with friends (outside of drumline rehearsal) was two weeks ago. I went to lunch with my best friend of three years. We haven't seen each other since. While the saying "distance makes the heart grow stronger" can sometimes be true, I feel like I am starting to lose touch with who I used to be. This is the first semester of my two years in college that I haven't gone to any parties or anything. The last time I saw a good portion of my friends was on New Years. I always tell my boyfriend that its okay to spend time away from friends because having alone time can be good for you. But this is getting to the point where I am starting to get lonely.

This blog about my day has started to turn into a rant about my life. So I'll stop for now and maybe I'll have cool stories to talk about later this week.
