I'm sick.....

I can't believe it has happened. The past two days I've had a fever off and on, chills (which I absolutely hate), and my back is sore when I lay down to long. I believe that this is referred to as the "Carolina Crud." My voice even sounds like a garbage disposal (boo hiss). Why did this have to happen to me? I guess I just have the luck of catching any contagious, especially the stomach virus. If you have that, then don't even bother coming in my direction. The point at which I have the stomach virus is when I'd rather be dead than alive. Apparently, I'm not the only one suffering from this calamity. When I went to see the nurse the other day, there were at least three other people with the same thing. Ya'll better watch out: there's a plague at SWU! I do have to admit that this is a first time experience for me at SWU. Hopefully it won't happen again. There are two things that I will do from here on out to prevent this "crud": put on hand sanitizer, and get eight hours of sleep a night. Will I be able to stick to this new plan, or will I yet again fail and get the infamous "crud"? We'll have to see.......................................

How life has been

Well, I can say that lately, life has been not been a breeze for me. In fact, it's more like a hurricane. I go from one event to another, and it seems like it never stops. However, I am gretful for the things that are going on in my life right now. I am making steps towards a career in human resources. I have been calling up professionals, applying for internships, and I'm even going to interview for an internship this week! There is just so much out there, but I need help limiting what I want to try to do (not to mention that Googling doesn't really slim down my options.) Regardless of all the busyness, I need to not lose hindsight of God and what is doing for me. He is opening doors and opportunities to network and connect. It's just unfortunate that I haven't been able to talk to Him much lately. Wow, I'm a loser. I need to try to straighten that out. I can do all the studying and working in the world, but God is what matters the most. He put me here on earth to fulfill His glory: regardless of my internship possibilities and shadowing human resource professionals.

An off-day

Today has been very-off and different for me. First of all, I normall get up at 8:15 in the morning to get ready for the day. Guess what? That didn't happen for me today. I swear that I had set my alarm clock on my cell phone for 8:15 a.m. , but I must have slept through it; not to mention the fact that yesterday I could have missed my 8:00 class if my roommate hadn't woken me up. The irony is that my alarm clock that is plugged into the wall was not set, yet it went off earlier in the morning. How in the world is that conceivable? Very weird. My eating habits get off too when I miss breakfast in the caf. I am the type of person who has to have breakfast related food regardless of how late I wake up. You can just imagine me eating oatmeal and peaches at 11:45 in the cafeteria. In fact, I was even telling people "Good morning." I surely was not "with-it"!With the power going out early in the morning yesterday and this happening, I'm wondering if this week will ever become more normal.

The type of person I am

I am a random person. I can come up with odd thoughts at the drop of a hat. I may say something that is completely unrelevant to a discussion at hand. For example, me and my cousin were talking about our favorite foods the other day, and I told her that this guy I went to high school with likes her and has a picture of her in his locker at school. How can someone go from a conversation about food to romantic interests? Hmmmm.....anyways, my random actions include not only weird conversations, but how I act when I'm out on errands. The other day in the grocery store, I started busted out the song "Hot Stuff' by Donna Summers. Yeh, one could imagine me acting like a disco star in the local Bilo (haha). I guess that along with my random self, I come off as an extraverted person too. I like to be around people, and not by myself. However, I do occasionally like to do stuff and not tell anyone what I'm doing; this could also mean that I am an adventurous person. Up to this point, you can see that what I am saying is not making sense; thus, contributing to my random part of my personality once again. I apparently have trouble being coherent and making sense, which I really need to work on. The warning signal for this that I get from my friends and family is one phrase: "What?" I want to improve this facet of my life and be able to be understood better by others. In conclusion, I hope that this entry has made some sort of sense to you. I have definitely become more aware of myself by writing down these thoughts.
