Life isnt fair

I feel like I have never been so busy in my life. I have all kinds of nursing papers do for my pediatric class, all kinds of stuff for English, all kinds of quizzes & test & practical’s to study for in anatomy 2. I feel swamped. Do I even need to mention the whole I work as a CNA at an assisted living on the weekends (which definitely cuts back study time that is greatly needed) and I also have another job as a color guard instructor for a winter guard at my old high school? I feel like I have too much on my plate. I never really understood the famous statement "you can’t have your cake and eat it too" but I’m kind of understanding that life means sacrifice. I have to give up my time with my boyfriend, my time with friends, and I quit working out every day because of time constraints. I just feel miserable with my life at the moment. I’m struggling and I feel like I’m doomed because it’s only the beginning of this semester! Now that I’m finished with my rants on how awful my life is at the moment, I would like to share how amazing clinical was. I was a student nurse over a special needs child and it made me so grateful to have all these experiences and even problems in my life. I am very blessed. This special needs child really kind of changed my thoughts on what I want to specialize in for nursing. I started off (up till today) wanting to be a pediatric oncology nurse. But today showed me how much I really like special needs children and how strong they are and how they need just as much love and care as every other child or person. I know pediatric oncology is something I have laid on my heart to do, but maybe special needs could be a part of my future as well. So at the end of the day I can list to you all the problems I’m having... but on the spectrum of life... how important are my problems? honestly, after clinical, I’ve realized that I’m blessed to be able to be in school and have a support system and all this stuff that special needs children might never be able to realize they have or even be allowed to have. I’m glad I got this experience of dealing with a special needs child... it’s an eye opener.
TO EVERYONE WHO THINKS LIFE HAS ALL THESE PROBLEMS THROWN AT YOU AND LIFE IS UNFAIR, REMEMBER IT IS UNFAIR BUT SOME PEOPLE HAVE IT WORSE THAN YOU.

Song of the day- unanswered prayers by Garth Brooks
"Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers"

This is the article i found on ebscohost about the social network movie.

Song of the day: Hate (i really dont like you)- Plain White T's

"Hate is a strong word
But I really really really don\'t like you
Now that it\'s over
I don\'t even know what I liked about you"

Wordle

Wow it took me FOREVER to figure out how to get this all fixed up to put on here!
My wordle is just a few songs put together that i believe represent me.
Can you guess what the 4 songs are?


Song of the day:  Conspiracy- Paramore
"Explain to me this conspiracy against me
And tell me how I've lost my power
Where can I turn? Cause I need something more
Surrounded by uncertainties I'm so unsure of
Tell me why I feel so alone cause I need to Know to whom do I owe"

so you have a bad day

so today is not the best of all days. Life, school, and my job are all kind of pulling me down. BUMMER. here is a song that i thought should be shared with everyone who feels the way i do right now.

Song of the day: The impossible- Joe Nichols

"Unsinkable ships, sink
Unbreakable walls, break
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
Happen just like that
Unbendable steel, bends
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable
I've learned to never underestimate
The impossible"

First assignment- Visual Rhetoric

The oh so classic and delicious Chick fil- A cow. This picture has a message that is suppose to persuade the individual to stop eating cow and eat chicken. For those of you who lived somewhere up north or have never experienced the wonderfulness of chick fil a, they are famous for their chicken (hints the name). The cow is the slogan because they want you to stop eating at places that serve burgers and enjoy the places that eat chicken. They choose the cow to represent the cow saying "hey don’t eat my family". The writer of this is the person who made up the chick fil a add. It could be the idea of the actual inventor of chick fil a, or it could be the designer who works with the owner. The writer is unknown. The audience however is for everyone who enjoys eating burgers to come enjoy chicken. I think the whole image of a cow holding a “eat mor chickin” sign stands out. Period. Plus that cute little sign is written all sloppy to look like the cow wrote the sign. Now this image, (pause to add drama) is visual rhetoric! 
Song of the day: Chick fil-a by Tim Hawkins
"Chick-fil-A. I could eat that seven times a day
Where the people laugh and children play
Oh, I'm in love with Chick-fil-A
Suddenly, I need waffle fries in front of meeeee
With some nuggets & a large sweet tea
Oh, Chick-fil-A. You set me free"

mothers and driving

Just yesterday I was riding around with my mother in the car and she set all the wrong examples. No seat belt, talking on the phone, driving with one hand, looking around, no turn signals, doing the california roll through stop signs, and of course speeding. I always tell her when she is being a bad driver and setting a bad example. ya know what she says? "your suppose to do as I say, not as I do" typical mother talk right?

I think this comic is what explains it all.  Just because your older doesnt mean you drive safe. Experience means nothing when it comes to driving because anything can happy.  Now this isnt for all mother, its also for fathers.  The point of this whole blog is: parents just dont know everything they think they do.
The Song of the day:  Parents just dont undestand- will smith
"You know parents are the same
No matter time nor place
They don't understand that us kids
Are going to make some mistakes
So to you other kids all across the land
There's no need to argue
Parents just don't understand"

two-day

So I just finished all my work and decided I should try to write again. The other night my dad and i were talking and he made a quote that I really liked. It was: " apologizing doesnt mean your wrong, it means you value the relationship more than being right". After i heard this i thought... dad your right! (he doent get that often since my house is my mom and three girls, he almost always gets an argument after everything he says). My dad said this to me because my boyfriend and I were in a fight and I wasnt in the wrong( in my opinion) and I ended up apologizing just so he would talk to me (he didnt talk to me for two days). I knew that what I was arguing for wasnt wrong but I decided that not talking to him was stupid over an argument as stupid as that. So even though i wasnt wrong, i apologized. Guess what?  almost a whole day later he apologized too. (of course i posted this quote as my facebook status because I know he gets my updates through his phone so I knew he would read the quote). I just thought it was cool that my dad said that quote during a time I was actually having an argument and he didnt even know I was in an argument. my dad is like superman. Big, strong, protective of his girls, and simply can fix or destroy anything. To hear something kind of sensitive coming out of his mouth was... kind of nice to hear.  through everything I have put my dad through (getting a cat, getting my ears/ belly button peirced, getting a tattoo, sneaking out of the house, smoking a cigar on my 18th bday, and other stupid teenage things...) my dad loves me and I always be his little girl.

Song of the day: my little girl- Tim Mcgraw
"You beautiful baby from the outside in
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again
Go on, take on this whole world
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl"

better is one day

So i origionally made a blog on the 1st of january 2011. The same day i created it i posted my first blog. that same day i deleted my blogger account. I feel like there is nothing i need to say that is important enough to be blogged about. I like to talk but i dont know what to talk about. I dont like being the typical cliche and therefore i dont want to pose and pretend i know what im doing on a blog. because i dont. The truth is, the only reason i am back to blogging is because i have to for english. I dont think this is something im going to be good at but im willing to try. Im a very open minded person but i also stick to what i believe when it comes to indefinite decisons. somethings wont change, just like some thing will change. I plan on posting the song i am listening to when i blog. so i can share with you the music i enjoy. if you dont like it... ok then dont listen to it. you dont have to tell me how much my music sucks. i like it and thats all that matters to me. I pretty much have a song for everything in my life. for the people i meet, for the decisions i make, for each specific break up, for each family memeber ect... Each song i have a wide range of stuff i listen to but most of the songs are specific for a certain thing in my life. So please dont put down my music, it means something to me.

song of the day : Moments- Emerson drive

"I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do"
