Adventure is Out There!

Here is another tip:

Go explore the town that your college/university is situated. Remember...

If your college town is a big city, then you will definitely have things to do and see while you are there. If you are at a college that is in a small city, don't think that it just a sleepy old town, every town has something about it that makes it special, you just have to find it.

 

Take me for example, I went and visited my college town with the Bilbo mindset...

 

 

                                  

 

 

It was extremely fun and I got to see what went on outside of the college. I went to the local market night and had the BEST handmade ice cream. I also tried a gyro at one of the stands and got to look at some cute jewelry for sale.

 

 

But I didn't stop there... oh no!

 

 

I went and found the public library, don't get me wrong, the school library is amazing and has great books, but it doesn't have as many fictional books. It's is great if I want to research, but some days I just want to sit in a corner and read and be taken to a far off place.

 

I also found that they have an amphitheater and they put on free shows/musicals and they also have local musicians come and give concerts for the public. I went to a couple of concerts and it was great! That is what I am doing next year too!

 

So remember...

 



I love Up!



                                                      

Fill in the Gaps of Summer

I love summer!

But summer has left me with giant gaps of free time.

When summer first started,I used that free time to fill out applications and go to job interviews. Well, I got a job,and so now three days a week I go work part time. That still leaves me with two days that would normally have been filled up with class and homework.

So I have become hooked on Supernatural, Doctor Who, and Sherlock.

I LOVE THESE SHOWS! They are addicting and I love watching them.

I started watching Sherlock two years ago ( I think ...) and I was instantly drawn in and become a Sherlockian (Sherlock fan).

I loved the developing friendship between Sherlock and Watson and I loved how it was modern. If you have not seen this show, I ORDER you to go and find this show and watch it. This is probably my FAVORITE show! (AND CAPS LOCK CANNOT BEGIN TO EXPRESS MY JOY AS I WATCH IT! ^_^) Unfortunately the third season is not out yet, so I have been patiently waiting for its arrival by re-watching the first two seasons over and over again.

Doctor Who is a great show too! I love science fiction, so this is very interesting. I actually started the watching from the second season of the show. If that gets me in trouble from die hard Whovians ( Doctor Who fans) then oh well.

Supernatural is another great show and I usually don't like to watch things that have to do with evil spirits or ghosts, but I made an exception for this show.

I read somewhere that despite it being scary, most of the viewers of the show are female.

 

 

Of course there are going to be more girls! You stick two handsome guys as the main characters and you expect girls not to watch the show.

 

Now you know how I am mostly spending my days. After typing this out I look like a loner. This is not the case! I am doing other things, I'm just saying that I am watching these shows and I am THOROUGHLY enjoying it!  ^_^

What's In Your Closet?

Clothes!!

Clothes are very important, unless for some reason you are going to a nudist college.

I love college for the simple reason that you can wear anything and it is okay.

1. You can get away with pajama bottoms and a tank top, hair in a messy bun and no make up, whether it be for a test or a non-test day.

 

2. School colors are always acceptable! Hoodies/sweatshirts if the weather is chilly or t-shirts emblazoned with your mascot and school name are a great outfit; whether it be because you are lazy, late or just really want to wear your school colors.

 

 

3. Or you can be adorable and wear something a little more dressy, which will definitely get you noticed by others. ( In a good way ;) )

 

 

 

4. For you athletes out there, just come to class wearing your athletic shoes, workout pants, and a windbreaker.

 

5. Or you can be like me and wear a shirt, jeans, and sneakers.

 

I guess what I am basically trying to say is that in college you can get away with anything fashion-wise.

 

One important rule though: never ever wear stripes together or stripes and plaid together. You know what... just don't wear a patterned shirt and patterned pants together.

 

There, that's it and you are now on your way to becoming a fashion-savvy college student.
