  • With Changes Comes Excitement!

    Wow... I haven't updated in some time now. I'm slackin for real. So I'll update you. I've started my sophomore year at Howard University, celebrated my 19th birthday, found out that I made the dean's list in the College of Arts & Sciences for 2006-2007, let a few grades slip (still in the process of fixing that), got a new boyfriend, and changed my hair color. Exciting... right?

    It was my fault that my last school year was so boring. I studied, studied, studied first semester and didn't really go out much. Second semester, I joined the Howard University Community Choir (Ha ha... PR, no?) which definately became the highlight of my year.

    THIS year I'm going to attempt to make it SO much better. It actually already is as far as getting out and joining more organizations. I joined the Psychology club, a state club (Illinois-Missouri Connection "Ill-Mo", & Bison Watch (which is basically a hall monitor in the dorms). Problem is... my grades aren't looking so good. Midterms were HORRIBLE! I honestly thought I had at least a high B or an A- on my Classical Mythology midterm... it was more like a high C. Boo... And I can't even discuss my Algebra tests and Spanish tests. You would think after 5 years of Spanish I'd be good at it by now. SO not. I really gotta work on balancing these activities and school work. This is exactly why I haven't gotten a job while in school.

    Here's a before & after of my hair:

    Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketWent to Morgan's homecoming with my sweetie. My school played against his. We both had on hoodies with our school's names and people either didn't believe we were actually together and thought it was a stunt or said "Howard and Morgan... that's cute. ::Whatever team they root for:: is going to stomp you!" lol! Morgan won the game, but Howard's band did WAY better than Morgan's during the halftime show.

    Howard's homecoming game is today. I'm heading over to see the parade down Georgia Avenue right now. The Step Show is tonight too. It better be good. I definately paid double the original price for 5 of those tickets. Of course, more pictures will be posted up soon!

    Love you all!
