Internet

So the internet was down all night last night and i couldn't even post my paper on blackboard but its working now and i got it posted. It made me mad though. The whole woodworth building had no internet and some people even had owl homework that they still had to do that was due last night which would suck. Well i went home this past Saturday and my dog had 12 puppies and surprisingly she had 3 white ones. They are boxers so white ones are really rare. There is one runt though and boxers get their tails cut and the runt couldn't because the vet said it would cause to much stress and it would die. So we are feeding it threw a bottle and trying to make it stronger. They are so cute though!

Random

This past weekend was alright. I went home and Friday night was family night and we all played games. Then Saturday night we all got up early to take my dad to the airport to go back to Iraq. I then had to work Saturday night and Sunday morning. I then came back to BSU. I am debating on whether or not i should go home this next weekend or not. I am staying here on Friday night but i might go home Saturday. One of my dogs is going to have puppies some time this week. It is her first litter. My other dog has had three litters of puppies. Its so hard to give them away though when its time.

SURPRISE!

About two weeks ago now I wasn't feeling very good and my mom kept saying that she would come up and we would go out to eat and I kept telling her no. Well the next day I ended up telling her she could come and she said my sister was going to come too. When she got here I went out to the van and my two brothers were out there. I thought it was kind of funny and I was like they got made to come because they would not normally come. We started driving and things kept getting thrown at me. My brother Drew was sitting behind me so I assumed it was him. Then my dads ID got thrown at me. I just kind of looked at it and since hes in Iraq I just thought "I thought he had that with him." So I threw it back at my brother and yelled quite throwing things at me. It was thrown at me again so I just handed it to my mom. Then my dads wallet got thrown at me. I just looked at it and thought to myself I thought he would have had this with him too. I then handed the wallet to my sister who was in the front seat. Everyone was laughing but I didn't think of anything. My sister then pointed behind me and when I looked behind me my dad was standing up in the trunk of the van. I was in complete shock Ithought I was seeing things. My dad is only home from Iraq for two weeks and leaves to go back this Saturday. Ive been going home the past couple weeks to be at home. It sucks that I have to be stuck here at BSU and cant even see my dad even when he is home.

FALL BREAK!!

It feels so good to be home! Fall break needs to be just a little bit longer though because i need a break from school. After last week though i feel fine. Mid-terms are over and i don't feel so stressed anymore, everything is done. At least for a week or so because then i have a couple more papers due. Its like all professors think we are just taking their class and they expect us to spend all of our time on things for their class. I mean we do take other classes besides theirs. I mean i don't procrastinate and i still don't have enough time to do everything they expect us to do.

Letter to the Editor!

My topic for the letter to the editor is going to be about how parking enforcements should not be so strict. My roommate parked in the parking garage during the week for like 4 hours (which yeah your not allowed to do) and got 4 tickets. You would think that one would be enough or maybe even a warning at first. Four tickets for one incident is not necessary.
