Oh, Civilization, How I Miss You

These are some things I will do as soon as the world re-opens.

Oh, Civilization, How I Miss You

For me, I have been in quarantine for about a month and I must say, it's had it's ups and downs. Some time to focus on yourself is always a good thing, but at some time it's a good idea to get out and get moving. I haven't really been out since the world-wide, mandatory quarantines were put into effect. But soon as the quarantine order is lifted, these are some things I am excited to do again:

See My Friends

I haven't seen any of my friends in quite some time, and i'm really missing them. I miss being at Mississippi State and going out at night with my girls and living our best lives. College is commonly known as "the best four years" and I can say I agree. I miss the old days of goofing off with my best friends. I can't wait to see them.

Not Being Scared Of People's Sneezes

This one speaks for itself. I feel like were all on edge and kinda paranoid because of this pandemic. I think that when this is all over, we will all have a new found appreciation of being able to stand beside someone without hearing, "six feet apart" in our heads.

Go to Canes

If you know me, you know how much I enjoy a good Canes chicken combo. Last summer when the Canes in my town opened, there is no telling how much money I spent on Canes Chicken. Ah, I miss it. I would even go as far to say that Canes is better than Chick Fil A. Yep, I said it.

Go Back to Starkville

Being a sophomore at Mississippi State University, I think of Starkville as my second home. Being told you can't be at your second home is quite disheartening. I can't wait to be back to attending classes and being at my apartment. I can't wait to be a functioning college student again.

These may seem like small wishes to some, but i'm sure i'm not the only one who can't wait to get back to the normal routine. We all wish to see our friends, eat out, and go back to normal environment. I hope things get back to normal soon, for all of our sakes.

Stay safe out there, kids.

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Grey's Anatomy

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.
