My little brother made me aware of this new dance craze sweeping through our nation's middle schools and high schools.

4.I get to hang with my lil bro/ go on crazy adventures with him
5.I get to chill with my amazingly cool friends who do more than drink their asses of, complain about their lives, or make themselves better than others.
6.I can hit up that awesome lil Chinese place in china town with Katrina
7.I'll spend all day running around various parts of DC, MD, and NoVa, only to end up in one of my friend's houses crashing and just watching a movie
8.I get to host/ go to cookouts!
9.I get to go back to Mississippi for the first time in like 5 or 6 years, just long enough to get into touch with my southern routes.
10.I'll be in the only place I've only ever known as HOME, with the 4 people who will love me despite my bad attitudes, constant failures, wanting to give up, and the fact I never call them.

Aversion to Listening
What I've noticed about some of my friends here is that they have an aversion to listening. They have a tendency to sit, whine, and complain about their lives, relationships, one night stands etc. However, being the somewhat friendly person I am, I give them advice and listen, no matter how boring what they are saying might be, the amount of work I might have to get done, or the fact that I have heard the same story about a million times. However, when it is my turn to talk and bitch , they are quick to steal the fire and go back to talking about their life, start texting/ reading old text's on their phone, or saying be right back and going to talk to a group of their friends. But despite all the stuff they are doing, they are still "listening". So if I did the same thing how would you feel? Like really? It's just annoying hell. It kind of shows the self-centered nature possessed in everyone (my self-centeredness comes from writing a post bitching about this and you guys). Seriously, it shows a lot about both of our characters:
Me
-I am a pushover, because although I may be bored in the middle of your story, I remind you that I am interested, and despite the fact that I may have heard the story a million times or just don't care, I will pretend to.
You
-The fact that you enjoy listening to yourself bitch and moan is annoying. The fact that you only like to have your problems solved truly shows how self-centered you are.
So I always thought I had some true blue friends here, maybe I don't. I mean at least my friends from home will listen and give me a chance. It might just be the competitive selfish, cut throat nature of Penn, which drives us to be these self-centered assholes. Who knows

Easter
I actually got up and went to church this morning. Go Me! But as I was sitting by myself at church, I realized that I kinda sorta missed my family. And then I realized, Easter has evolved from a holiday of celebrating the resurrection to spending time with your family. Although I didn't go home mainly because I have a test on Monday combined with the fact I am not the biggest fan of religion and such, I should have gone home; just so I could be with 3 of the 4 people who will always understand and love me, regardless of how much I might screw up in life.

Pre-Med
So being pre-med means you want to go to med school, right? Yeah
But the path to get there is hard as hell. You have to go to the best college, get the best grades (3.7 science 3.8 overall), you have to do scientific research, complete hundreds of hours of community service, and be involved in every extra curricular activity on the planet. However, if you are not able to achieve this, you spend four years in college extremely stressed, doubting yourself, and wanting to give up. So AMA, you have created a generation of quasi-suicidal over achieving ready to throw a friend under the bus generation of young people. They want to give up on their dreams because they can't get an A in that science class or might possibly get a B- (oh god) in calculus. How can you go to sleep at night. I am curious the number of college aged students who have committed suicide over something like grades or not being able to achieve these high standards that are set.
So the reason I am on this rant has to do with some of my friends. One of my friends is an engineer (who prob when he sees this will be like omg...you wrote about me lmao), another is a bio major, and final one is a former pre-med now econ major with dashed hopes and dreams because of the shitty advisors at this school. For starters, we are all in a similar boat and according to AMA there is no way in hell that our asses will get into a credible medical school in the United States. Regardless, we all have this passion and drive to be docotors. Maybe I couldn't memorize the fucking layers of a tree (I still don't know how this is relevant to being a doctor), or my friends wasn't the best at friction forces and trajectories, and my other friend just could never get blackbody radiation down, but at the end of the day we never gave up. So shouldn't that show something, Mr. AMA, we never fucking gave up. I feel like the determination and persevernce we put up, says alot. Hopefully in two years, we all will be heading off to medical school, because our respective med schools will see that over four years we never gave up, improved, and ultimaelty have the drive to be doctors.

Why I Shouldn't Drink
So I have had a pretty shitty couple of weeks, always studying and never going out. So the other day I decided to go out and drink. That was a problem. After 2 mixed drinks, with about 2 shots of vodka per drink and 3 shots (which were made of this really tangy fruit stuff that went down soo smoothly),I was gone. The night included attempting to teach people to "Walk it Out", although I still don't understand what is so hard about it, and a one women dance show, to the likes of Brittany Spears and Beyonce. So after the party some of us go back to my friend's apartment and watch tv. I get tired, and tell my friend I just want to take a nap on their bed. Ha...I was out and woke up at 9:30 the next morning, only to find my friend sleeping on the couch.
Moral of the Story:
1. The aforementioned friend in this story is amazing for not kicking me out of their bed.
2.Lo siento
3.Last time I do tasty shots
4.I'm not drinking till Fling

My life as a tv pilot
19 year young person who has her whole life with this fear of something which probably does not exist. Has a decent social life and a steady group of friends, a lot of whom are guys, but has a score of F- in the relationship department. After 4 years of being a somewhat semi-overachiever, she is accepted to an Ivy League University, which only destroys all her dreams, hopes, and aspirations and leaves her broken. After multiple failures and a tumultuous 2 years of colleges attempting to be a pre-med student, she tries to make the best of a bad situation, and attempts to enjoy the school she is stuck in and make the best of her life; although she will end up living in her parent's basement after graduating. Quite possibily, she will be a cat lady by age 26, while all her friends have amazing careers, are getting married, and or living amazing lives.
