Easter
 
 
Easter of 2014, was the best Easter ever. I woke up Sunday morning went to church then went out to eat, then came back and went to a Easter egg hunt with all my family. I didn't know my family was that big until I actually saw everybody. It was so many little kids sunning around and just enjoying there selves. I only pretty much went to take my niece and help her find eggs, she found 31 eggs and got 11$ in cash, I was so pound of her. Yesterday just being around my family and seeing everyone just brighten my day I didn't want to leave for nothing. Its hard being away from home and then having to come down for special events and then having to leave to go back to school, being away form home is not a good feeling all the time, sometimes its nice to get away but, then again your missing out on everything. For the meantime yesterday was a beautiful day for me to just hang around with my family and having a good time!

SoftBall TailGate
 
 
 
The Richard Bland college was invited to the girls softball team tailgate and games at 3 and 5 on April 2, 2014. They provided food and drinks and all we had to bring was our statesman sprite, it was so hot that day I couldn't be out in the sun for long because it would have just made me feel sick. I feel like that's the only time you really see people out the dorms is at events because food is provided and its free. Mostly everybody was there showing support because everything was free. I don't know if the girls actually won because I couldn't stay outside long. The sun was just a beat down and made me just as sleepy. I think it was a nice event to have outside while the weather was nice and everybody got to mingle and enjoy each other. It makes me feel really bad when I see any sport playing in hot weather, because all the clothes have to be on and all this extra things it involve but overall it was a nice event Richard Bland held.

Spring Break
 
 
Spring break was the most dread fullest break ever of 2014, I went home and did nothing, but the fact of being home and among family was the best. I got caught up on my rest and did a few job applications for the summer. I was also ready to come back to school because I felt a little bored and being in the 804 it was plenty to do on weekends and throughout the week. Being in the country is the worst place to live if your an out going person, but if you rather be home and a friendly family person  the country is for you. The weather was nice at least i came home and didn't have to worry about snow over spring break, it actually felt like spring time. the fact of the matter is I didn't like the fact I had to spend most of my money on gas, but most of all I didn't have to pay to get my hair done. Last but not least I went and sat at my baby's grave and just spent a little time with her even though she isn't here physically, she is still in my heart. I usually attend church while being at home, but every time I go people always have the erg to say "youre always home", but im the type that loves my family and loves to keep a update on my people!!!

we have actually kind of started out spring break early, because we missed the 3rd and 4th of march its been crazy how our school days been cut short this semester. We have barely had classes, but in a way its just been a laid back semester! I am sick of the snow because it just holds me back I can go anywhere, but be stuck in my dorm. I rarely talk to anybody on campus I have a select few of friends which is a good thing because I can deal with less drama...! I'm glad none of our spring break is getting taken because I think I deserve a week off from just school.. Richard bland was just the right school for me, we get out mostly when it snows and mostly universities are still in secession. Being that we are on back roads it makes it even better because they don't clean the roads off as quick as they do the main roads..

The fashion show has been trying to go on forever in a day and finally it has came to and end and now, its canceled! they have worked really hard and dedicated their time to going to practices and trying to being a student with outside activities. After going to some of the practices and seeing them work so hard and being into what they were doing, no matter what the show should still go on. Every time the show was suppose to go the weather was bad and or timing was bad and it was just something that had to come in the way. All the girls had their outfits and was getting pretty and come to find out there is nothing. I feel for the girls because they truly worked hard and then get nothing out of it .
In class we have been trying to make our way through our first paper and doing peer reviews and doing a process memo. In the memo we talked about why we basically picked our first paper and how did the peer reviews helped or didn't help us, and what would it do differently or what were going to do going forward. This semester has been the worst cause Ive been really lazy and procrastinating of doing my work. Our essay are lengthy and more descriptive. My first essay is on Capital Punishment For Violent Crimes, I love criminal things and I love trying to detect problems,

Feb 12, 2014
 
 
In class on Wednesday feb 14, 2014 we did peer reviews with our groups. we had to read our papers to our group, and then they had to read it and make corrections. I was the only one in my group who had my paper so there wasn't to many corrections that could be done to everybody's paper. Our papers have to be 1500 words and I got about to 500  words. we have kinda missed a lot of class period times so we haven't really been in class to do anything. The snow has really pushed back our days and our class times.

Feb 6th
 
 
On Feb 5th in class we talked about our argumentative paper that our first rough draft is due Monday Feb the 10th and our first paper is on Crime and Punishment, we discussed how we should have out paper more to speaking to the audience. We watched a video and went through a PowerPoint to give us tips about how to set the paper. Our paper has to be 1500 words and its a research paper. It amazes me how I can jump from English 100 only writing 750 words and now English 101 and now writing 1500 which is almost 4 1/2 pages.  I have a lot to argue you about crime and punishment such as the death penalty and how it doesn't get used properly. we have human beings out here killing and kidnapping and there's nothing getting done to there consequences but jail time. There are many more situations. Also we brainstormed a little and came up with some actually topics to write about such as: Law, Crime, Punishment, Crime Rates, and many more. This is our first paper and I hope I do good and continue to boost my writing.

Monday Jan 27, 2014 Sweeny English 101 class was established an writing assignment and we had to pick three topic out of about 9 and the whole class had to pick the same three to write about. Once it was time to discuss and pick topics nobody wanted to agree on the same ones. We took a vote and a student went to the bored and wrote down the list and we tried to all agree on one, but it still didn't work. After trying to pick three I just gave up because everybody was yelling and trying to argue over just picking a subject. I thought just picking any three would be fine, because we would still have to write a 4 1/2 page paper. Topics weren't all that easy but looking up information could have tied up everything to talk about. When class resumed Friday we are picking topics again and trying to agree on the topics to write about .

On Jan 22, 2014 the Richard Bland basketball team played the top 2nd team in the nation whom is Louisburg NC, it was a very competitive game the whole game. When the game first started off I was ify if Statesmen were going to be able to handle throughout the game. Both teams came out strong and very to play ball. Coaches, fans, players, and also teammates were roudy the whole game, our fans were much louder than the cheerleaders our pep squad was hype. During the game all players were going ballistic about winning the game. There were about 2 fight the whole game from start to play. The music had the game pumping because everybody likes a little bit of music to hype them up for anything. Dj Awall had the fans coming out their seats dancing, but throughout the game we had the game tied with a team that was top 2 and we were top 7. After the game got intense at the end of the day Bland played to the end and won.
