Party Planning
Saturday is my 19th birthday and I wanted to have a party. So, I decided to plan one for myself. One Friday night i will be going out to dinner and then to a club. On facebook made an event and invited 80 people. This was totally pointless because no one RSVP's accurately. It is crucial that I know exactly how many people. I've sent out and e-mail to everyone and only half of the people responded. Sometimes people are so rude and inconsiderate of other people's time! I have to make a dinner reservation by tonight and i still don't have a TOTAL! geeze o petes!
Mayor O'Reilly
Last week the city of Dearborn had their mayoral election. O'Reilly won with about 16,00 votes. The other 6-8 candidates had a range of 50-150 votes each. I thought it was very ironic that some many people took the time to vote when obviously everyone knew that O'Reilly would win. I actually didn't vote. I totally forgot. I said, " Oh he will win anyways." I thought a lot of other people would feel the same way and not take the time to vote either.
Even thought O'Reilly received 16,00 votes, the city of dearborn has about 50,00 registered voters. So only about 34% of the registered voters casted their ballots.

FREEP
Most of the stories where negative. The one that caught my attention immediately was "
Ex-student arrested for gun at Redford High" anytime you hear about guns and students you have to read more. Luckily this situation didn't escalate.
Of course one of the top stories was about the murder of Tara Grant and her final moments. It is getting a bit excessive but you know that the media will run it into the ground.
More people got killed in the middle east because of a car bomb...imagine that... everyday there will be something about the war in the middle east.

Me vs. School
I've finally realized it takes someone who is very motivated to make it through college, well to make it through with flying colors and also have a good time. You need to establish certain times to study and you need to always always follow through. You need to learn how to say no when someone asks you to come out when you know you have a ton of homework. procrastination is your arch enemy and will ruin your grades! I am far from being on top of my game. It is so hard to sit in my room and study...I've got the tv and the facebook and AIM and Itunes all going...you have to be so motivated to get started. But i think that once you make a habit and start reaping the benefits of studying ie good grades and less stress...then everything in your life will fall into place...
Some ways to keep on track:
Some ways to keep on track:
- make to-do lists (a little girly, i know)
- keep a planner/calender to keep track of important dates
- have a routine
- set aside blocks of time for studying
- PLAN AHEAD!
- DONT PROCRASTINATE
