Organized Chaos
Hey! i'm Matthew and i love to keep life interesting. Sooo follow me and i shall follow back!
These past couple of weeks has been crazy! Like I feel like we have all these assignments due and like in the corner are the finals, and they’re just sitting there laughing at us and torturing us lol. That might just be me but I do have a very active imagination. I’m glad to have a colorful imagination because it keeps me from getting bored a lot lol. Like long car rides most people just get bored and then want to go to sleep, not me! While out on the road im very alert, even if im not the one driving.. I’m like this because I don’t want to miss anything that could have helped me from being bored. I don’t know if that made any sense.. Sorry im just kind of rambling but all I can see is the weekend. I am so ready for it to be the weekend it’s not even funny, I’m trying to decide if I want to go home but I really can’t decide if it would be better for me to stay up here. Either way I need to study for my exams. Luckily I only have two to study for but the bad thing is that they are on Monday and Tuesday. I guess this is kind of bitter sweet cause it’s like heck yeah! I get to leave early! But then it’s bad because I have less time to study for both of them. I’m just ready to be done with school for this semester lol. This summer is going to be awesome! Like so much fun and stuff, playing baseball partying and chilling, come on now, you can’t get any better than that
So we are getting so close to the end of this semester. i cant believe that we are about to be ending our freshman year! it gets me excited when i think about it because i’ve learned so much this past year that i cant wait to learn whatever next year. But yeah i learned to not trust what rate my professor says, not to take 8 am’s, even if you think you can do it, dont! well maybe that one just pertains to me, i dont know. ummmm i also learned to get involved, because if you go from being active in high school to doing not a thing in college, you will be very bored! i also learned to go to every event that has free food! oh my gosh i cant stress that one enough lol, it’ll save you so much money, and also it will help you meet new people. that’s also something i learned, if you come here with alot of people from your high school, make sure to still reach out and try to find new people to talk to. also i learned that naps are my best friend! seriously though, in high school i never took naps, like ever. but now whenever i have the opportunity to nap, i take it! but yeah i also wish i could have gotten a better adviser, i guess it’s a good thing i was not really depending on him because he definitely just did the minimum work with me to help me take the right classes. but yeah overall i’m pleased with Ut there are some teachers that i preferred over others, but you’d get that anywhere.
this easter weekend was pretty intense. First i went home like around noon on thursday. since i left early i got to surprise my parents! i like surprising them lol so that was a good start to the weekend. Then i went to my high schools baseball game and watched some guys i knew play. they were playing siegal high school and it was pretty good. the guy pitching for siegal was one of my friends and the weird thing about him is that he had a full beard in middle school! and when i say full beard i mean like hairy lumber jack kind of beard. I have to say that it is quite impressive. But even though it is pretty awesome, i would not want to have it lol. i mean i bet it takes a lot of grooming that just so you dont look like a hobo walking in to school. sooooo even though it’s cool, i’ll let him have that enjoyment. any way next i helped my mom try and find a job. she works as a librarian at the elementary school, but her degree is in social work, so she’s looking for a social work job. I’m excited for her so that’s why i’ve been trying to help her find a nee job! then i took mojo, my dog down to the nature trail at barfield park. That was pretty intense for mojo because he was going crazy, like every single dog or person that walked by he went crazy. i felt like a parent that had a kid that just kept crying. he isnt mean he just wants to play with everybody, so he starts going crazy and then when i wont let them he starts whining. sooo yeah it’s pretty embarrassing but once i take him to obedience school then hopefully that’ll be fixed.
So i just like to go on the record and say, i am so glad that i am a guy. I mean really girls have to do and go through so much more than guys do. Girls have periods give birth deal with other mean girls and a whole lot of other stuff. So i just like to take this time to say that yall girls out there are doing a great job with being girls. i have no other way to put that, so PLEASE do not take that the wrong way. i am forreal being sincere when i say that.
Anywayyyyy so easter is coming up and i am so excited, i just cant hide it! are you excited?? I am(: I cant wait to paint eggs and go on a easter egg hunt. jk we don’t do that anymore. Back in the day my dad used to get us all those baskets from walmart with the gifts in them! i never really knew why we got gifts on easter but i guess it was all due to the clelebration of jesus rising from the dead. But like i said we don’t do that anymore. Recently our easters are spent going to church like always, eating a easter supper, taking some pictures, and of course eating chovolate bunnies! still sounds pretty darn good to me! I love spending time with my family, and time with my girlfriend, which we just celebrated our 26 month anniversary yesterday! i also love spending time with mojo my little dude! i miss him and all the people i just mentioned. All of them are very special to me and are close to my heart. Well idk about because he probably cant be trusted in a open field with squirrels all around him lol. but i’m pretty sure if everybody else i mentioned were in a field with squerrels surrounding them, then i could trust them haha. anyway sorry for the rambling!
So this past weekend, well i think it was yesterday…. anyway, this past weekend i realized that i say ayyyye too much lol. I was actually pretty sad when i came to this realization because it’s been such a big part of my life ): but oh well that’s life for you. anyway before i ramble too much more, i am trying to find a replacement word for ayye, so if any of yall have any suggestions please do not hesitate to let me know!
Spring Break!
So i went to panama city beach for the first time this spring break! it was actually pretty fun. but there were alot of people there. Mainly we ran into people from Wisconsin ohio michigan and kansas. the coolest of them all had to be wisconsin! they are just so cool and their accents are AWESOME like i think it’s just me but i love wisconsin accents lol especially the way they say their o’s! but yeah. We met this one dude named diesel from wisconsin and he was super cool. we just chilled on the balcony and watched all the crazy kids down on the beach and talked about life. Shout out to diesel! i dont know if i would go back to panama city beach because there wasn’t really much to do there.. okay that’s a lie :D .. there was alot to do there, i think i’m just more of a chill vacation type of guy lol oh well cant really complain about a break from school!
So guys i need feedback on my paper, this is the first paragraph So i kinda Looking back over my life I realize that I’ve been a lot of places. Although some stick out more than others, there is one place in particular that catches my attention. Its name is Barfield Crescent Park and our on again off again love affair began as soon as it opened in the spring of 2000. The relationship between me and this baseball complex- wilderness park was very complicated. Every spring the park became the sight of my many wins and unfortunate losses. When I think about why this park was and still is such a big part of my life, I start to wonder if it was just the sheer amount of time I had spent there or if it was something bigger and more complex. For somebody that didn’t know the real me that would be their first guess, but after looking deeper one would soon find that Barfield Crescent Park wasn’t just another place to me. It stopped just being a place to me after I realized that the lessons I learned, the goals I accomplished, and the people I met there had molded me in to the person I am today.
So yeah hopefully that is a good introduction how it is but you never know. My workshop is tomorrow so i’ll get some good feedback then but i was just hoping that i could get some right now lol. but yeah so how about spring break is only a couple of days away! yeah i’m definitely having like a minute by minute countdown over here lol. it’s not that knoxville is bad or anything lol. i just prefer the beach(:
Soooo have yall heard about this Joseph Kony guy? i just now after all this time found out who he is and what he is doing. He is a war criminal in Africa and he abducts and forces kids to either become sex slaves or fight in his army. It is so sad, i was just looking through facebook seeing what was going on, when a 30 minute video popped up onto my news feed. With a open mind and some time i decided to watch the video; upon completion i was devastated, actually i had a mix of emotions. i was crying because of what these children just like we used to be are going through. at the same time i was unbelievably happy. i was happy because of all the people out there getting involved to bring this man to justice, and the way they are doing it isn’t violent. They are having people contact the congressmen and making them open their eyes and see that this is a tragedy and that if we’re this great nation we put on to be then we need to do something about it, because this is ridiculous. I guess it’s just so angering and frustrating because people never want to put themselves in other peoples shoes. If it’s not pertaining to them or the people they know and love then it’s not important. You and i know that if an American child was taken from his home and forced to kill. then first of all it would be all over the news, and second the military or some kind of law agency would have put a stop to that. So we as a country need to put ourselves in these children and also their parents shoes just for a second and think about what they are feeling. Once you do that if you feel like something needs to be done then join http://s3.amazonaws.com/kony2012/kony_new.html #kony2012
So is it just me or is this whole career deciding thing no fun? i wish it was kind of like in those future movies, where what you’re going to be is programmed in to you when you’re born. Well i don’t know if i’d like that. Something about being forced to do something for the rest of your life doesn’t sound like fun lol. It’s kind of sad that we take things like the ability to choose our own career path for granted. i’m sure there are people all around the world that wish they could choose their own jobs for themselves. So in reality i’m thankful for the decisions i face when deciding between medical and law careers. Have yall been enjoying this weather we’ve been having? I sure have! it’s been wonderful! like the kind of days that you just want to get out and live life to it’s fullest! days like these just make me want to go on a walk in the park with mojo! Mojo is my new puppy, he’s a beagle and is about to turn 7 months old(: he’s my little dude! i’ll post a pic of him after i get done typing this up. But beware! he is quite the little charmer so make sure if you have a girl puppy that she’s not around or she’ll fall in love on site! lol that reminds me of lady and the tramp, that movie is awesome! I cant wait till he moves up here with me next semester, it’s going to be so much fun. Which reminds me, me and one of my friends are trying to get a three bed three bath apartment at the Crowne apartments and we need one more roomie so if yall are interested just let me know!
So happy ash Wednesday! I don’t normally participate in Lent but this year i thought to my self, why not? it seems like it’ll be a good thing to do. from my understanding, you’re supposed to Fast something from feb 22 to april the 5th. The funny thing is that i didnt even realize that lent was coming up until about an hour before it started. I am always a little late on things like events, since i usually do not stay on top of things that i am not accustom to doing. anyway this weather is ridiculous. like how in the world do we go from snowing one day to mid 50’s the next? i really do not understand it. oh well i guess that is why i am not studying to be a meteorologist. Speaking of studying, There’s an economics test today and i’m feeling kind of down about it. I should not have taken that class lol. i strongly recommend not taking it either unless you know that you are good at thinking in that kind of way. I am not thus i probably will not do as well in there as i would if it was a science type class. but oh well we all take and roll with lifes many punches right? so on a brighter note i’m playing baseball again! yeah retiring from baseball my junior year probably was not my brightest idea but i felt like it was best for the time being. the funny thing was that all my life i was not allowed to have a girlfriend during baseball season since alot of the game is mental. then that year was the first year i had one during baseball season and it messed my priorities all up and i ended up quitting. moral of the story: listen to your parents!
I don’t really know what to write about so once again i’m just going to ramble. So apparently some guy got arrested for 45 days for beating up a cop with a light saber. Can you imagine explaining that to your parents or the judge? i surely cannot. I think if i were to ever get arrested for anything, including assault with a light saber, my parents would kill me. No exaggeration there lol. I don’t want to go to jail, I’ve seen a lot of movies and i can tell from the comfort of my home that jail is not a place i’d want to be. So for all yall planning to go out and have some “fun” this weekend. Make sure you steer clear of all light sabers and other objects that you could potentially turn into a weapon against a police officer. I’m sure the guy was so intoxicated that he mistook the uniformed policeman as one of Darth Vaders minions. Anyway on a different note, have yall been paying attention to the race for the Republican nomination? I sure have and I think that none of the current runners would be fit to run this country. I just feel as if they are more worried about their reputations, and the way that they look. It’s almost as if all the debates come down to the person instead of how they would handle a certain dilemma. Of course i think it’s important to have a president that doesn’t have any baggage but I just feel like we’re not getting anywhere. Sorry i couldn’t make this weeks blog more interesting, but i’m just in one of those moods, you know? Till next time stay frosty. lol i love saying that.. “stay frosty” go ahead try it out for yourself!
