Classes for next Fall

I've already registered for my classes for next fall. It's so weird to pick classes so far out! I have no idea what my life will be like then! But, I'm going to be taking English Literature 1, Flash Fiction, Shakespeare, and Nuclear Technology. Pretty awesome mix right?! I'm excited yet nervous.

I'm taking a whole class on flash fiction which is stories around 750 words or less. My post on Monday was an attempt at flash fiction. This class usually takes a topic and you learn everything about it in a semester. Its a required class and the topic changes every semester. My freshman year, they had one on science fiction that I wanted to take soooo bad. I wanted to wait it out, but, who knows if they'll offer that class again. So, I'll just get it done and hopefully develop a love of flash fiction.

I'm excited for English Lit, it's mostly women writers. So I'll be reading some Jane Austen and Mary Shelley yes!

Shakespeare is pretty explanatory. It's Shakespeare. I love him and always learn so much from Shakespeare. I also love is that church leaders have said that Shakespeare is a great read, and he puts dirty jokes in his writing. So I think that's them saying that that kind of humor is ok, as long as its not the only thing ;)

And nuclear technology. I'm taking this for my honors program. I have no idea what I'm in for, but, as my honors advisor said What writer doesn't want to write about nuclear techonology? So I'm excited for this mix thrown in with all my english. It should be a fun semester.

I didn't have any pictures for this post so I thought I'd throw this one in. My nose was bothering me the other day and I got sick of getting a tissue out every five seconds. This is how Sammy found me when he got out of class.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read Jana's blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that. My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t. Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes. He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house. I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
