I Hate Titles!

October 1, 2012

Well, this is my first blog post. As you can see, I can't think of a creative blog title, so this post will simply display my true feelings towards titles! :P This is definitely harder than I thought....okay....so, I always have so much to say, in person and on paper, but now that I know people are reading this, I am not quite sure how I want to say these things. Every sentence could give off a different impression, so I have to make it good! 

Basically this page was created in order to keep track of all the wonderful things that are happening in my life right now! It's my first month at Michigan State and I am absolutely loving college life! So much can happen in so little time! I am quickly learning that and have been taking advantage of that fact as well.

I plan to write about fun experiences that happen so that my friends and family can keep up with my hectic life! I truly hope this helps my situation of explaining the same story over and over again. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love talking to my friends and family, but lately it has gotten to a point where I don't want to tell the same story again, so I just don't. 

First example:

One of the first things people ask about when they grill me about college life is, how's your roommate? This is one of my favorite topics because my roommate is absolutely amazing! I seriously could not have asked for a better situation! The horror stories about crazy roommates do not apply in this room! However, I have heard plenty of minor horror stories and it has only been a month...so that's not good! Her name is Emma and we will randomly start laughing about something funny that happened in class or a post on Facebook! She is always happy which simply makes everyone's day better! Plus, she has a great sense of style and taste in music! One tradition that we started a couple weeks into school is Cinema Sunday! Every Sunday night, after our homework is all finished (well...most of the time), we sit on the floor with our cozy matching blankets and watch a movie! We decided every month should have a themed genre. September was Horror Movie Month! It started with Red Eye, then The Resident, then Passengers! All three are very good! 

So last night, we watched Passengers, and Anne Hathaway plays a character named Claire (haha I know right?!? What a coincidence!) As we watched, Anne (I can't refer to her as Claire, it's too weird) kept mentioning her sister and how she should fix her relationship with her. Then, Anne said her sister's name! It was Emma! At that moment, I am pretty sure the entire 6th floor heard screams and laughs from our room! We freaked out! I mean, come on!!! What are the chances that a Cinema Sunday movie would have two characters, who play sisters, named Claire and Emma! We basically act like sister anyways! 

Okay, so I don't know if anyone thought that was a good story or first blog, but that was just one crazy story about my life...so far! It feels weird writing about my life because most of the time I tell stories, and I can't tell them right, so i just end up saying, "you had to be there". 

Give me feedback though! Can't wait to hear what people think!
