More Studying For Finals

So I'm proud to say that I think I aced my sociology test today! I highly advise everyone to take Intro to sociology when they go to college because it is one of those classes that has very easy concepts to learn but really make you think! It makes you very aware of what people in the world do and why they do it. It teaches you about how people act in certain situations and it made me change the way I acted and thought about a few things. I have another final tomorrow at 10:00, then I have to meet with people about my organization, FMLA. (Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance) After that, I am packing up my car and driving home just so I can go home and finish my final papers! Well, I need sleep for my busy day ahead of me!

Finals week has started :(

So finals week is already here :( This week is full of stress, no sleep, final projects, research papers, and staying in the library all night! hre library is open 24 hours a day, which is nice so that people can study whenever they want! Also, all of the dorms have 24 hour quiet hours, which means that you cannot be heard outside of your door. You can't even talk in the hallway!They lift the quiet hours from 12-1:00 and 6-7:00 so that people can vaccum their rooms or talk in the hallway. Its harsh, but it'snice when you're the one studying! Last semester there were many activities going on in the basement of the library. People were makig stress balls and learning relaxation techniques so that they could keep their sanity during finals! Hall counsel is also helping by having food availible in Becht every night this week at 8:00. Tomorrow is milk and cookies and Tuesday is peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and veggies! I have so much more studying to do, so I bettter get to it! I'll keep everyone updated with my finals! Good luck to me!

Winter in Clarion

It finally feels like winter in Clarion! I'm not really excited about the snow and cold, but is was really weird when it was 60* in November! There have been snow flurries almost every day for the last week, making it look really pretty outside. Although it looks nice, it makes you want to stay inside as long as you can! It's starting to feel like Christmas here because of all of the decorations! (I'll post pics in a few days) I'm not actually in Clarion, (There was a death in my family) so you all will see pics when I get back and take them! I'm studying for finals and trying to do my last few projects. I only have to be in Clarion next week for one final on Monday so I can leave early in the week. I also have one final online (for my intro. To paralegal studies class), one legal memorandum to write (for my methods of legal research class), and a 10-12 page debate paper (for my argumentation and debate class). Finals this semester are much easier than last semester! Although I am looking forward to the semester ending, I am going to miss my dorm room and all of my friends! Christmas should be pretty great this year! Well, I have to start my papers, so expect to read another post when I get frustrated!

Mr. CU pageant!

I am happy to report that people at Clarion University are growing up a little bit and becoming very open minded! Last Thursday, Clarion University held the "Mr. CU pageant!" Normally men do not take part in pageants, but this was widely accepted through campus! The winner of the pageant was Jed Miller, so congrats to you! I was very surprised at how many people accepted this and was also impressed because I feel that the world is taking a small step to change and stray away from the sexist ideas that exist today!
