Thanksgiving

My Thanksgiving was great. I went to New York because my brother, Brian, is in the Purdue marching band, and they performed in the Macy's Day Parade.  It was a really cool experience and a lot better than I would've expected it to be.  The best part is that because we were walking so much, I didn't gain any weight!  That's always a bonus in my eyes.  My favorite parts were probably the parade and going to see the statue of liberty.  They were both really neat.  This was definitely a Thanksgiving I will never forget.

Monty Python

So after a few years of everyone telling me I need to watch the movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," I finally watched it.  I had heard so many good things about it and heard how funny it was.  I was so excited to finally see it.  Once I saw it, however, it was terrible.  It was just slightly better than "Napolean Dynamite," in my opinion.  I was very disappointed with "Monty Python."  It was one of those movies where I actually kept checking the time, counting down til the end.  Of course, there were some funny parts in the movie, but overall I did not like it very much.  I would not recommend it to anyone.

Thanksgiving

I cannot wait for Thanksgiving.  My brother David, will be coming to town from Texas.  I can't wait to see him.  Plus, my other brother, Brian, is in the Purdue marching band, and they are performing in the Macy's Day Parade.  Therefore, my family and I get to go to New York for Thanksgiving.  I think it's an amazing opportunity.  I also can't wait to go Black Friday shopping up there.  It's going to be a blast.  I think this is my 9th year in a row going Blak Friday shopping.  I love it.  The only downside to all of this is I have to fly to get there, obviously.  I hate flying.  I get motion sickness so easily.  The last time I flew, I ended up puking during the last 30 seconds of the flight. Definitely not looking forward to that.

Cover Letter


Our group’s topic is racial profiling.  Working in groups has been productive because we all are not afraid to share our opinions on most topics.  It gives us a good view as to what's going on in the world and we start a descent debate with it.  I believe the topic racial profiling will be a successful one. Finding the proposal and research sources was easy.  So far I have had no problems and think it is going well so far.  I am hoping my paper is going to be a good one.  I did a large amount of research to prove that racial profiling does exists, and to show that it affects society in a negative way.  I personally believe that the all of the things I learned about racial profiling will be helpful in the future.  I will have a stronger argument if a debate ever came up into conversation.  This topic is not something I’m generally in love with, but it has been a very good learning experience while writing this paper.  I have gained a better understanding of racial profiling and how it is used.

Halloween

Well as a follow up of last weeks blog, my boyfriend and I have decided we love each other too much to end it.  It hurts too bad knowing it's a forced ending.  It's good to know everything is back to normal.

But anyways, college and halloween combined is amazing.  I haven't had such a good weekend in so long.  It was so much fun.  I dressed up as a mouse for halloween and uploaded my pictures on facebook.  My brother, who lives in Texas, saw the pictures and decided to text me about them.  His text read, "Minnie Mouse? You would have made a better pumpkin."  If calling your sister fat doesn't show you love her, then I don't know what does.

ugh.

Heartbreaks.  Why do they hurt so much?  It didn't end because either one of us wanted to, but because it had to.  It was time to end our 9 month relationship that we've held in secret.  It sucks and I feel horrible.  I don't know what else to say other than this is the worst I've ever felt and this is the hardest thing I've ever had to go through.
