Bring It On, Spring Semester

I'm ready for you.

Bring It On, Spring Semester
Communications Syllabus

As this spring semester begins, I look back on the past semester. I did my best and did everything I could to make it the best I could. So obviously, I'm going to do that again. But this semester, I need to improve.

Last semester, I did not do as well as I would have wanted. I did slack off some; I'll admit that. But I know what I need to do to get back focused and back to my work. I feel like I lost touch with some people who may have provided the motivation that I needed to get focus and the will to do my work.

I feel like I may have lost touch with God some. I thought about Him of course, but I did not feel as close as I should have been I believe. I didn't read my Bible as much, go to church as much, and I regret that. So I will definitely work on that also.

Maybe I focused on socializing too much. I did hang out with friends more than I worked I think. And that's not their fault, it's mine. But I should not have let my social life stand in the way of my future.

Nothing should stand in the way of my future career. But I'm the only one who can move past the obstacles that others or myself place there. It takes my will and strength, what God gives me, to reach my dreams. Nothing can stop me.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
