So far the day has been good, I went to dynamic training in the morning at 7 am. I have several topics on my mind; one is writing a final draft of a summary. I now see that my writing skills are not up to college standards. I am also typing really slowly, because of a finger injury sustained in a practice on Friday. Well back to the summary, I don’t really understand all the errors I made, and I suppose I need help on my citing, because every one of them are circled. I haven’t ever had a problem with citing aft4er a quoted sentence, if not in my own words. “Welcome to college Briana”, I just told myself. I really need to practice my writing and grammar. When the section blog said for us to write on a topic and for 15 minutes it made me think about science. There are so many topics in science that I could astound on. Actually I was watching this Neanderthal documentary, and mummy show on the discovery channel. The Neanderthals were our ancestors from Europe and lived about 30 thousand years ago. The mummy that scientists were looking at was about two thousand years ago. I am typing really slow, I’ve only typed this much in ten minutes. Anyway, it wasn’t till about 20 thousand years Homo sapiens, smart man, discovered Europe. When there was a encounter the Neanderthals became extinct a thousand years later. What scientist was trying to find out was why they became extinct?

My Duty to Vote..democrat or republican?
Two films were viewed on Monday stating the duty that, we, 18-20 year-olds have to vote. The speakers kept saying that it was so prized in the early 1900’s people 18 and older were given the right to vote, out of guilt. The House of Congress felt that if people that were 18 were going over to fight for our country, they should be given a chance to vote. The fact of today is that teenagers aren’t voting and that only 11 percent of 18-20 year olds show up for the event. There were many biases in these videos. One was whether democrat or republican was the way to go. Most young people prefer democrat because of college. When one looks at health benefits in college, it brings up a money issues because of tuition rates going up. The thing is with voting, however, is that teenagers are giving older people the right to choose our future and the next generations future. It’s been stated that “oh well my vote won’t count I don’t think that one votes going to change anything.” In fact for every person that says that about a thousand have that mentality. Because of that, it’s no wonder senators and people of the government wonder about revoking the voting age from 18-20, and making it from 21 and older, which are one of the biggest arguments. Instead of staying in bed, go out and vote, it’s a duty and privilege.

Topic for Eniglish 101
Dental decay in Vegetarians vs. Omnivores correlated with immunoglobulins in saliva
Weekend of 9-5-8
My weekend started off with a trip to Kohl’s to get a new pair of pants. I stepped into the store, knowing I would get a sale price. I had planned to get something for a movie my friend s and I were going to that night. I tried on two pairs and choose the skinny jeans with a dirt wash, as opposed to the dark wash. I headed to the shoe aisle a picked up some Birkenstock looking shoes to go with the potential outfit. We stepped out of the store to meet the raindrops falling out of the sky. Later that night was the movie. I had already seen it, but let me just say Wanted is one of those movies that you just have to see again. After that Alaska and I went to friends’ apartments to socialize. On Saturday I worked on a lot of homework and studied for an upcoming math test. I focused on homework in the morning and afternoon, so I wouldn’t have to worry about cramming on Sunday. The night of Saturday again my friend and I met up with some other friends and cruised around Kato looking for some entertainment. We found some fun to do for awhile before it seemed to be getting late, so we headed back and played some guitar hero. Sunday was a lot like Saturday; however I went to Buffalo Wild Wings to celebrate one of my friends 21st Birthday. I ordered the traditional Caribbean jerk, which has a kick to it. This weekend was the best I’ve had so far while in college.

One week down. 30 weeks to go
The first week of college: exciting, easy, frustrating, and exhausting. I arrived in Mankato on august 10 ready for soccer pre-season. 12 days later I moved into the dorms. I was first to the room so that waiting part was over. I choose the window side and hiked up 4 flights of stairs to find a pair of beds bunked on top of each other. I sighed in frustration and started to quickly take down the top bed. After un-bunking them I assembled my loft and split. It was 9:34 am, we had a game in Drake, and I was running late for breakfast and the bus. I hurried to highland apartments, where I stayed, and gulped down some orange juice. 3 days later I was moved in completely. The first day wasn’t so bad, although I had three classes one after the other, I got done earlier than anticipated. The first class was Math, which was in Weicking center. I had remembered the orientation mistake route to the wrong building, that had lead me to Weicking instead of Wissink. From there I went to Armstrong hall to English 101, which was the longest class I had ever taken. 1 hour later I was in Trafton center 121 listening to the orientation lecture for biology.
The exciting, and easy part described the first few days. The last three days were the frustrating ones. It all started with my Thursday night class, Biology Lab. Since the game was Thursday I had to reschedule for a Wednesday session at 6-8:45 pm. When I found Trafton S., I went up the stairs to find the door in front of me showing TN 328. This was just the beginning of my problems, I had read the schedule wrong and thought it said TS 332. It was 5:54 and still no TS 332. I ran around the square to only end up where I had started, TN 328. About 10 minutes later I looked at my schedule again and saw that it said TS 351. 5 minutes later I walked in the classroom 15 minutes later that it had started. The instructor didn’t seem mad, and the class lab hadn’t even started. Thursday and Friday were easy days and on Friday I found out that I wouldn’t have math class on Tuesday which meant I wouldn’t have class at all.
I’m looking forward to college and doing well in it. MNSU class of 2012 here I come.
