Scam!

There are not a lot of things that irritate me but there is one in particular that really gets under my skin. Meal plans. This system were every student on campus has to buy at least 100 meals before the semester even starts is horrible. For the past 4 years, I have seen it time and time again where hundreds of meals and thousands of dollars go unused because of this system. The school even closes early during finals week to make sure that students dont try to use up all their swipes. The Food Services on campus have done a great job in manipulating the rules to where stealing is considered legal. I hate it. I encouraged everybody who has meal plans left to use them up...and fast. Dont wait til the last minute because the dining will close early leaving you empty handed.

ps-if you have entirely to many to use up before school is out...i wouldn't mind giving you a helping hand : )

...

“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.”


~ Rainer Maria Rilke

Are you having one of those days?

Are you having one of those days that just seem too much? Well if you are just remember...

Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life



This always gets me through my day. I hope you have a good one

piglet flu

What the big deal about this piglet flu. I haven't even seen a pig in the past 5 years much less gotten a disease from one. And I mean even if someone did get infected wouldn't the pink ears and the springy tail be a clear sign that they should go to the doctor instead of rolling around in their own filth. I just don't get it. How has our country become so weak that we are scared of a few piglets running around with diarrhea? It's just silly. Maybe we should all just take a chill pill and realize that this is America. Home of the brave. A fifty state power house of wealth and fame. Where all your dreams will come true. blahblahblah...jk...seriously though...just wash your hands

Ulitmate

So the Texas State Frisbee team did not advance to Nationals. Out of the 40 teams trying to advance only two teams are eligible. We got 3rd place. Texas University took 1st place and the last game was between Kansas University and Texas State University. It was a hard fought game but in the end we lost 15-12. A lot of our players are seniors so it was really sad to go out with a loss but the team did the best we could and just came up a bit short. Next year though is looking very promising as we plan to keep getting better and hopefully have enough to push out on top.

The Office

So i really like the TV show The Office. I have been following it since the very beginning and it still makes me laugh. I used to buy all the episodes on itunes but they raised the price really high so now I just wait and buy the seasons on DVD. I wish Dunder Mifflin was a real office because I would totally go visit it. That place is awesome.

Watching the Texas Rangers while writing this blog with friends
Its been a good day

Speech

I am in Comm 1310. I just gave my speech last Friday. I don't know what is about giving a speech that makes me so nervous. I am a kind of person that doesn't usually get very nervous in front of people, but last Friday I was shaking in my boots. Ive been able to talk in front of many people before, but when it came down to my speech I just freaked out. Maybe I didnt practice enough or maybe it was the formality of the speech. Whatever it is though I need to figure it out because I have one more really soon.

Texas State Ultimate

So i really need to catch up on theses blogs so I'm gonna just start writing random stuff. Last weekend the Texas State Ultimate Disc team traveled to College Station to play a tournament to determine the best teams in Texas. We placed 3rd in that tournament and advanced to the Regional competition. On April 25 and 26 our team will travel to Little Rock, Arkansas to try to place 2nd and advance to the National competition. Texas State has never been to the finals and is looking forward to the upcoming weekends.
