unviersity 1010 debate with infamous edna

Well the semester is coming to a halt. During University 1010 I've adopted a new heart for homelessness. Today i have my debate and I'm really excited. I'm fairly confident in my work and in the time i put into this. Today i will be debating the pro of providing shelters for the homeless. Hopefully the day will go as planed. Nich and I have been carefully planning for 2 weeks now... so everyones going down!

Life at Madonna ...

So far life is alright at madonna. It has gotten better and could be worse. I've met lots of new people which i love doing. My teachers are alright. My favorite in particular is Edna my univ. 1010 teacher. My classes are going alright i've been getting B's so hopefully i can keep it up. I've always pondered on why my friends change when they go to college but now i know. Maturity sorta kicks you in the *** when you go to college.

Service Learning: The Aftermath

Last weekend i went to service learning a the gleaners food donation. There i put caned goods in boxes to get ready to be shipped to the less fortunate . I am not gonna lie i was dreading waking up at seven in the morning to go but suprisingly it wasn't that bad. I felt like i was a good citizen afterwards.

JUST ME & MY SIS

In the picture is my sister and I. Don't mind the dark circles and the grocery bags under my eyes. I figured i would post about this! My sister lives in Florida and i'm going to visit her over Christmas break. I can't wait to see my nephew and niece! I haven't seen them in almost a year! :-(. While everyone is freezing their tails off in the winter ill be basking in the nice warm sun getting my tan on. I've never been to Florida so it will be quite the experience! Just thought i would share!

Service Learning

November 10 ,2007 i will be attending the Gleaners food bank. I choose this service learning because it hits pretty close to home. At one point in my life i was literally a dollar away from being homeless. My house along with a lot of other Michigan citizens got put up on foreclosure. The bank was about to take my house and everything in it. We couldn't afford our house non the less food. I worked 20 hour a week and also was going to school. I used the money i was making to buy food and help pay for my family's living expenses. Currently we still have our house because the bank gave us a little extra time to get our act together. I think Gleaners is a great program that i can relate with. My home often got gifts from charities such as lunch meat, corn and other valuable food items. I just thank got everyday for what he has given me and for all the charities that have donated to my family.

Madonna

So far I'm enjoying Madonna. I just finished my mid terms and i realized in all my years that i have never studied that vigorously. I believe the studying payed off though and I'm expecting to receive good grades on all of them. Finally i have met some new people. I have came out of my shell and am now comfortable with being myself. I didn't think Madonna could handle me (haha).

Playoffs

PLAYOFFS

As we all know I play for the Madonna Soccer Team. Wednesday October 25, 2007 I had a Play off game against Aquinas. My team and i were ready kick Aquinas's ***. We had lost two really tight games to Aquinas and we were ready to show them what we worked so hard for. I started in net. Anxiousness, confidence, and nervousness overcame my body. The first half two goals were score by Aquinas. Both shots were off a cross and were scored at the six yard box. I was angry but the game wasn't over there still was one more half. We came back and scored a goal in the second half. We couldn't seem to get one more in though. We missed multiple shots on an open net. In the end we lost to Aquinas 2-1.
