8th Week of Classes, Almost November!

I cannot believe how fast 1st Semester of my Senior Year is going! I have had so much going on it's hard to believe that this much time as past! I have had an exam in my Health Science class Radiological Health & received a C which I was happy about because it's a very hard class. I had an exam in my CSR 404 Class, which is a Class for my major Selling & Sales Management & received a 77% which isn't bad considering everyone thought it was a tough exam & not many people did well. In my Wine Class I received a 70% on my exam last Monday night, which again is good because everyone thinks the exams are pretty tough making it a tougher class. Overall I haven't failed any exams which is the bright side but, I would like to be getting A's. I'm still waiting on my exam in this Class & I am TAing a Class, CSR 100 for a credit, English 420 their aren't any exams in just projects which I have received A's on everything in the Class thus far & I'm taking Health & Fitness for a grade worth a credit yet, in which, their aren't any exams. It has been pretty rainy here in West Lafayette & we only have 4 weeks until Thanksgving! I need to get on applying to more Companies for a job & figure out what & want to do with my life! It's a very intense year, but I'm having fun & enjoying myself & just glad I got through the 1st round of exams thus far this semester.

The Week After Fall Break

It is now the 8th week of Classes here @ Purdue, which is pretty much the middle of the Semester of the 1st Semester of my Senior Year here. I cannot believe how fast it is going. I just got back from my Fall Break last night that I spent visiting my best friends from home that go to Arizona State University. They are 3 hours behind there, which I was thrown off with the time while I was there & now I am thrown off for the time again returning to Eastern time. I am jetlagged & tired from my trip for we went out 2 out of the 4 nights I was there and kept myself pretty busy 2 out of the 3 days I was there as well. My best friend from home as well that goes to the University of South Carolina came on her Fall Break as well but came a day earlier and left a day earlier so it was great seeing my 4 best friends from home all in one location at the same time. I have never gone to visit my best friends from home before at College so it was a really fun experience and really exciting visiting them. The plane ride was around 3 hours, going there it was longer since you were going against the wind and coming back it was shorter only we sat on the runway for a good half an hour after it was already delayed a half an hour coming back so it was a long weekend of travels for me. I have somewhat of color from laying out just 2 days ago at their pool in their backyard and now I have to prepare for my 2 exams I have this week. I have one in this class on Friday morning and one in my CSR 404 class tomorrow morning @ 7:30 a.m. which will keep me very busy for the next 48 hours. I can't believe how fast time is going!

My Space

MySpace is a social network & website that I have not used thus far in my life. I do not plan on using it though because I don't have a very good opinion of MySpace. I don't think it's safe and I think that it is more juvenile than a Facebook or LinkedIn social network. Everyone I know that has a MySpace is younger, middle school or high school age and grows our of it eventually after making one. I think that MySpace hit a peak and is not as popular as it once was a long time ago. It was more well-known in my opinion about 3 years ago when Facebook wasn't as popular, Twitter wasn't created nor LinkedIn. They keep coming out with better and better things Online to communicate with and so on and so forth that I don't think MySpace will keep up. This is my opinion on MySpace that probably will not change unless they renovate it or it makes a comeback sometime in the near future.

Twitter

Twitter is a cool new site I have been checking out. My friends have accounts that I like to check out on Twitter. They like to tweet often about certain things or post pictures about certain happenings that they have been apart of or want people to know about. You can post about your mood, about what your up to that night, your weekly plans, vacation plans and what your up to on your daily talking about your every move. You can have a funny name for yourself as your account or just have a plain old name that is generic as can be. I would like to get a Twitter but, I feel as though I consume my time with Facebook enough and to be even more preoccupied with something else might be too time consuming. I am pretty addicted to Facebook as well thats why I doubt getting a Twitter because their are already statuses on Facebook that are like a Twitter that I already use. Maybe I will get a Twitter someday, we will see, I think we actually have to get one for class so probably more than likely.
