I am not trying to "date" myself but it made 10 years ago this week since I started thinking about leaving community college and going on to the "big leagues" ! I was pretty inspired at that point in my life- sick of living at home, had a new "boyfriend" and it seemed like anything was possible! Luckily for me starting in January 2005 I started Appalachian State University (I know, you all knew that by now lol) and well the rest is history! One thing I found absolutely enchanting about ASU- I mean sure there were lots of things.. but one of the things that really stood out to me was the fact that you RENTED your textbooks! No more buying of books that costed several hundreds of dollars that you never used, you just walked into the bookstore with your schedule and they handed you all of your textbooks because a rental fee of $35 was included in your tuition. It didn't mater if it was 1 book or 10- you were covered! I was like WOW this is awesome ... why can't all schools come up … [Read more...]

5/30 @thebesociety Sept Challenge- Lost Everything #besociety #beseptchallenge
Want blog inspiration delivered on a monthly level? Check out the BE Society Monthly Writing Challenge- You don't have to be a "Member" To join in! Well My, My, My This is a really depressing topic right here! As most of you know I am writing these ahead of time and I just have pulled myself out of a major mood funk and with the happy cheerful place I am in I don't know how to really take this topic lol. I mean a simple answer would be "cry" because I am a cry baby and that does sound like a logical answer to me! however, exactly what is everything? did i loose EVERYTHING EVERYTHING -as in people /my house/ my processions? because in that case I would probably just honestly not have any reason to go on with my life .. ya'll know I fight a lot of depression issues so.. that probably would be something that pushes me over the edge. I think that whatever caused me to loose everything would play a part as well. I promise I am not taking this as a freebie post but I don't like … [Read more...]
piece it all together
The Easiest way for me to write this post would have copy/pasted all the posts I have started in the last week and didn't post lol I don't have a lot of internet/blogging/writing inspiration but I figured I owed ya'll one of my famous ramble posts to mix in with the monthly writing prompts- that and the fact I am slacking on my linkys as well! It is honestly that time of year for me where I change over from being a up early and doing tons of stuff through the week to mainly a weekend person- but I am trying to make it work both ways for me and not "be like that" lol. I always have to just keep it in my mind that my "meh, blogging and webs" phase never lasts more than a little while and it isn't like I don't have posts scheduled up daily so it is NOT that big of a deal. I just have my own personal goals that kick in and that is why I am obsessed with getting regular rambles and such in! I set higher standards for myself than you can even imagine lol. I kind of set myself up to be … [Read more...]
4/31 @thebesociety September Challenge- Treasures #besociety #beseptchallenge
Want blog inspiration delivered on a monthly level? Check out the BE Society Monthly Writing Challenge- You don't have to be a "Member" To join in! This is one of those ones that if you have known me/ been reading the blog very long you probably already know what I am going to say for the answer I treasure most in the world above anything:David/ My Family/Fur Babes and my Loyal Friends(Mostly online- I don't really have too many offline- yes I am anti social in the real world lol) Of course David and the Fur babes- I would be a pretty lonely gal with out those for sure. David first got me Shadow back in the day because he knew I would be lonely when he wasn't around and was working and what not. Even though there are some things about David that drive me mad (throws everything away even if it is important- obsessive compulsive cleaner- just to name a few) he has really been there for me through lots of things like my CC/HPV -the "Drama" and just every day. If you had to put … [Read more...]
3/30- Sept @theBESociety challenge- your country #besociety #beseptchallenge
Want blog inspiration delivered on a monthly level? Check out the BE Society Monthly Writing Challenge- You don't have to be a "Member" To join in! It is to early in the month for me to take a free day isn't it ? lol. I don't really know what to say on this one though! I live in the USA but as far as getting really into why it is or isn't that great and keeping it light and not taking it to somewhere political where about 99% of my liberal friends won't agree with what I am saying I don't really have much to say lol. I am not an overly political person to start with but I do tend to lean way over to the right and most of what I think is wrong with this country leans over to the left! I guess I can say it is nice to have free speech and all of that good stuff because a lot of countries don't have that luxury. Other than that I am taking this one as a semi-freebie post :) … [Read more...]

Want blog inspiration delivered on a monthly level? Check out the BE Society Monthly Writing Challenge- You don't have to be a "Member" To join in! There are so many things that I would like to know more about that there simply isn't enough time sometimes I don't believe- don't get me into one of those posts about how much time i know that I waste just refreshing my browser and that kind of thing when I could be doing something else. Honestly though there isn't one thing in particular that comes to mind that would be something I would like to know more about other than- oh this is so predictable and boring I promise you'll be like could she not have just skipped this one? BLOG DESIGN- HTML- THEMES.. I can't code to save my life. well.. o.k. I can do a few general things no doubt but as far as coding up my own layout and all that kind of thing ... not happening :( I wish I had someone that could just sit down with me and help me out. I can't really do good with that kind of thing … [Read more...]
