fall break

fall break is over :(, so sad, i hope i had a few more days. i had hoped to do a lot throught the break but i couldnt, i was busy making up the sleep time i had missed, but i was able to do some of the stuff i planned. i have been able to write all my essays for my english class, and revised my physics. school was a little boring because it was almost empty, but now its too noisy because almost everybody is back. the 2nd 7wks have started, and i hope my classes will go better than the first 1st 7wks.

wartburg college social change

this week in my IS 101 class, we talked about the wartburg college social change wheel, how we can make an impact in our society, using our skills in our interest areas. i think i relate to a couple of them, i know a live a socially responsible life, i try to be a role model to my friends and to my younger siblings. i also think that i relate a lot to direct service, even though i sometimes exhibit leadership skills. i think my experience as a peer leader in my middle school, and muslims girls president in my high school, have given me the leadership intution, such that i exhibit that charateristic in almost every situation that i find my self in.
   as for the other ways, it depends on the situation that i find myself in, i find it easy to learn in a situation, so if i dont have an experience in something, i realize that, after a couple of times, i develop some form of skill in it.

bday

hi,i am just a day beyond my birthday,yep, my bday was yesterday, i wasnt really excited because i had two exams to write, and i had to turn in two papers, its the worst bday ever, until of course later in the evening when my roommates surprised me with a birthday cake, it was the best time of my bday, a beautiful cake with chocolate icing and cookie at the bottom,yummy,overall my bday went well, there's my bdae pizza party this weekend.cant wait, fall break is next week,cant wait for that too, i need a long break to relax from the stress of college life.overall the first seven weeks of college was a learning experience for me, i feel like the next seven weeks is the when college really starts for me, as i feel like i know the system now, and so i can survive well enough.i'm still debating whether to go home for fall break or not, chances are that i might not, but i can change my mind at anytime.so unitl then see ya.

homecoming

hi there, its home coming today or was homecoming yesterday, but it went down well, i thought it was too cold and windy,but that's me,i also went to the football game but left immediately because i didnt understand anything, the only thing i remeber of the game was when one of  the players threw the ball and it fell down and then one opponent just hit the wartburg player and nodoby said anything, people were even cheering, and i was like, is this football?, i even asked a friend to explain the game, but that made it worse, i was more confused than before, so i gave up, and went to watch the more familiar soccer game between current international players and alumni international students, pretty interesting game because, i understood what was going on and then , the current internatonal students won. apart from the fun of homecoming, i was also doing my assignments and writng my papers,so pretty tough weekend, i now believe that nothing is impossible, i've  actually written a five page paper and i have more ideas to write, its even scary, i never thought i could even write a two page paper, it surprising i dont even know how i do it, i guess practise makes perfect, am really tired now , its past 1am, i have to go to bed, been working on my english paper, gud nyt , catch you all later.

no ausfly

ausfly, that what i heard its originally called, ok, i hope it happens this week, but i dont want to think about it anymore, its more disappointing that anything else, i have more important things to do, like finishing my papers, and studying for my tests, yep, i went to the wrsl lab today, to  get help on what and how to write my paper, and it was really  helpful , the people there are really nice, i now have an idea of how to frame and present my paper. i wanted to help with designing the flag for I-Club for the homecoming float, but i have to meet with my group for a physics lab report, i want to do something different apart from school work, but school work always keep coming in, caroline my friend wants to teach me how to swim,:), yer , so that should give me some time to relax, and to do something different, homecoming is this weekend, am kinna excited about it, i hope it goes well, ok , i really wish outfly happens tomorrow,.......

its sunday evening, the end of the weekend, i didnt do much, i planned to work on assignments from all of my classes,but for some reasons i haven't done as much as i had planned,this saturday, I-Club members went on a getaway from school, for a fun day, something i realized afterwards that  i needed a lot, to getaway from campus even for a short while,that hepled me do something different for a change,i am writing lots of papers already, i have about four papers due almost the same time,not a fun thing,i also have test from two of my classes on the same day, i feel i have something to do all the time.hopefully it will blow over before the fall break,i dont know how i'm going to use my fall break, i maybe will find some volunteer work to do,donate my time, that will make me use my time fruitfully,i want to start a list of things i want different in wartburg, i will definately paste them here, i already have a few but, when i get the full list i will paste them.
