I Want My Life

I just had such an amazing weekend, and it's not even over yet!

This weekend I had the chance to go see Oprah and several other speakers at The Palace of Auburn Hills, and all for free. Someone had donated tickets in their suite at The Palace to the organization that I was apart of at home, Guardian Gals Inc, which is all about volunteering and knowing your community, and empowering yourself and everything wonderful like that. And we got free tickets to go! So I decided, on a whim, to not care of the implications of what I might miss, or time on homework lost and go to the event.

This ended up making me feel so much better for going. You see, this happened to come at just the right point. As you may or amy not know from previous blog entries, my week wasn't super stellar, especially the two days before the event.

But then I went into this workshop and it was everything I needed. What all of these amazing people were saying seemed to be connecting directly to what I had been feeling and experiencing in my life recently, and it was all about how to take those negative emotions and make them positive. But not even that, or just that. It was all about how what you put into the world is what you get back. As in, approaching a situation a certain way will change the way it happens. It's hard for me to put into words exactly what they said, I'm not good at that translation of speaking event into words. I just know how I'm going to approach life for this moment based on everything I've heard.

This relates to me directly though because the shitty feelings that I've been having about studio class, I have to take a different approach. I have to think that my work doesn't suck. I don't know how I'm going to do this yet, but I do know that it's going to happen. I am going to make myself and my life better.

Hot Damn

WHAM BAM, HOT DAMN WHO THE HELL ARE WE? WE'RE THE LOVELY SISTERS OF DPHIE! Wow my past week has been crazy. I really should be writing my essay right now, but I can't actually be entirely bothered about it (the subject is just horrible and it's pretty terrible to write, but I'm still going to get it done tonight, it's pretty much due. But whatever). Homework is piling up and I'm kind of struggling but I know that I almost work better under pressure. It makes me more focused, and I'm more that willing to pull a couple of sleepless nights in order to get work done. Anyway, the past two days have been very, very Greek. Friday was Song and Skit, where all of the Greek orgs on campus get together and perform a 10 minute (at most) skit where you can sing and dance. You're meant to be funny and it's okay to make fun of yourself  or other orgs or something. We did a spoof on some Miley Cyrus songs and it was pretty funny (we got to do the Simba lift u...

I Should Be A Model

This last Thursday I got back from from visiting my brother, sister-in-law, and my niece (she's six months old and absolutely adorable) with my mom. We did a lot of super cool stuff over the course of three days there and two days spent traveling there. Besides this we also visited the Midtown Global Market, had Nepalese food, and my brother and I went on a ten-mile-abouts bike ride. It was super great to be able to go out and visit them. They live in another state, so we don't get to see them a lot, and this is also only the second time that I've gotten to see my niece, so going out to see them was a nice chance to visit. My ma and I also made a sight-seeing trip out of the ride to them (It's almost 11 hours, so breaks are nice) and split it up into two days. We got to see this abandoned town in the UP, Fayette, which is super cool and I recommend visiting it if you ever get the chance. Here are some of the photos from the trip:  I posed for some great shots (I...

Roots and Leaves

In the new member ed classes we do in my sorority we do this activity called roots and leaves, where we draw a tree (it doesn't have to be anything special) and the leaves represent qualities about yourself that are obvious or easily visible; whereas the roots are things about you that not everyone knows. Now, the one that I did with the sorority, I didn't put everything down that I really thought belonged on there, so I made my own. I think I'll keep on adding onto it, but I thought I'd share it with you guys for right now.  Goodnight lovelies! TheFabKid
