Spring Break 11'

This week is my Spring Break, a well needed break for sure. I arrived on Friday, and one of the things I always do is get me some chipotle because that’s the best place in the world. I heard there’s one around my school but I’m not sure, I don’t have a car so I don’t try to go. This week has been great though, sleeping in, no alarm clock to wake you up for class, eating home cooked meals, and actually having the time to eat breakfast too. I’ve been relaxing all week, it’s been wonderful, and got my hair done, that was much needed also. I think I’m going back Sunday so I got to enjoy these few days left, then knock this month and a half of class out so I can leave. Hopefully, I hear from Temple and George Mason soon, I’m leaning more towards Temple though, I love Philadelphia.

But when of course when I came home, I had some things here;


I filled out a survey a while back on DCtoBC (check it out) one of my favorite sites to check. As a reward for completing that survey, Modi sent a letter and some stickers. They’re doing some great things so be on a look out for that.



If you don’t know about The Award Tour then it’s your lost. This is an incredible brand. Phil came out with another collection of beanies and of course I just had to get one. Even though it’s barely cold any more I still bought, it’ll be use for next winter. I suggest you’ll get one too, these keep your head more warm, and it’s comfortable.

Trust Me

It's not that I'm abandoning you it's just I'm really feeling this other blog. Don't get jealous though cause I still like this blog. I don't know how often I'm going to post on this one though. I do post more frequent at the other one though. It's vonnep.wordpress.com

New Year 2K11

Sadly, the semester starts back up tomorrow, so I'm getting prepared mentally for that. I had a great break and really wasn't looking forward to coming back but hey, its life. I start another blog for some odd reason, you can find it here. Even though I'm not ready for classes to begin I am pretty interested in the course I'm about to take. I picked out classes that really seemed interesting so i'll see how that goes. For the new year I had made some goals/list of things I want to improve on. I already wrote it on my other blog. I've been meaning to put it on here so here it goes :
So a little over a week in 2011 and like everyone else I’m thinking about certain things I can work on or start doing. I don’t want to call them a ‘new year resolution’ because that’s what the masses say. Just changes I want to make to better myself and that will help me.

Be more dedicated – I want to start giving everything my full effort. Stop half assin’ (no, i don’t think that’s a word) things. Give whatever I do 100%, my full potential.

Stop over thinking/worrying - We all have them times that we just over think plenty of stuff and worry over the smallest things that we think is bigger than it really is. Or worrying that there’s not enough time in a day. This year I don’t want to stress over none of that. Just keep my mind clear and worry about that.

Be more positive – No negativity. Just good thoughts and a better attitude. It makes much more of a difference.

Read more – Starting Oct of 10′ I started to read a lot more. I enjoyed doing that, and this year I want to continue and read even more books. My goal is a book a month. Hopefully I can do that and keep up with my school work.

Outgoing – Sometimes I just get to comfortable with doing the same stuff. I want to just start doing stuff I wouldn’t normally do, and try new things. Take chances, do something unthinkable and not be timid about it.

More organized - I can stay organized for 5 days and then after that things become hectic again. I’m not messy I just have stuff all over my desk or just misplace things. So this year I just want to keep up with having my things organized.

Day of Rest – I decided I want to take one day out of the week with no social networks or laptop. I already limited myself to going on twitter and tumblr cause I found myself just spending an insane amount of time on there when I could easily be doing something else better with my time. I took Ubertwitter off my phone which I think is the best thing I did. I’ll probably still allow my ipod so I can listen to music. But I hate feeling so connected to these things. I think it will help me, and help me get a lot of other work done.

Those 7 things are just majority of what I want to work on this year and beyond this year. I truly want this year to be way better than last year, well even the year before that. Life is about learning and growing and that’s what I plan on doing. I just wrote out things to help me. I’m also going to try my best to be consistent with both of my blogs.

Happy New Year!

Welcome 2011! I decided to do drop in and do another post. I'll be probably getting back to blogging on the regular in a few days. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Years. I surely did. Spent both days with my lovely family. Even though I had a great christmas, I did not get my camera yet. Money was up to par, so somewhere between the end of January and February should be when I get it. Right now, I just got to make what I have work. For some unknown reason off the random I made another blog. It's on wordpress, you can find it here. I'm not really sure what's going to be the purpose of that blog but i'll figure out. Check it now, I already posted one post. I barely can keep up with this blog so let's see how I can do with two. Here's a couple of pictures from since I been home.

Thanksgiving day

Going to a graduation celebration.

Check in

So it's been a month since I did my last post, I decided to do a check in. Even though I said I would cut my internet I did do it some but not as much as I would like. I don't stay on too long any more or check twitter constantly like I use to but I still think I could cut back more. Especially since finals are coming up. Smh, oh joy, the happiness of being in school. I honestly can't wait till this semester is over. A nice month long break. It's going to be great. Of course me being very indecisive I'm back on this "should I stay in school" question. I really don't know if I want to come back next semester. Its not even all about the unnecessary work, this school is just not where I want to be. This was my last option but I didn't get into temple and decided to just come here. I actually wonder if I would have went to Temple would I even have this question on my mind. I'm not sure, but I plan on transferring to either Temple or George Mason and I hope I get in to either cause those are the two main schools I want to go to. Their Public Relation programs is so much better and I feel like i'll probably like it way better. But we will see. Hopefully I get accepted. If I don't come back next semester I might have go to community college around my way but I honestly don't want to really. So idk. Christmas is coming up and I LOVE Christmas time! I can't wait to get home. I know my mom put up the decorations already. I can't watch christmas movies either, which I'm bummed about. I have to wait till I get home which is not Tuesday. I don't think anyone knows how happy I am. Right when I get home I'm going to make me some Hot Chocolate =) I also hope I get the camera I asked for at Christmas. I want to get started on my film stuff. As I wrote before earlier, I'm starting to read a lot more. I went to Barnes&Nobles yesterday just to look at some books. I found about 10 that I want. So I'll probably buy like two next week, and if anyone wants to bless me with some money or gift card there, I wouldn't mind =) I should be starting some final review worksheet but I don't feel like it. I'll probably just take a nap and do something unproductive. I still don't know when I'm going to start posting again but it shall be soon, take care!

p.s I'm selling some stuff on ebay if you think you might be interested: search vonnep.

Break

I know I was suppose to post pictures from Sunday about my desk but I forgot and was busy all week. Thursday was my birthday, I turned 18. I'm getting old. I had a great birthday despite being at school where there's barely anything to do. But I did enjoy, my godsister took me out to Olive Garden & to the movies. Hopefully Thanksgiving break when I go home I can continue celebrating and do some other things. I stated in a earlier post that I was making a list of change and things to do for when I turn 18 & I did. I also been just thinking about life and my goals. Even though I said I changed my mind about leaving school, I'm still having thoughts about it. Most likely I will stay, for how long? I can't even tell you. I'm just going to go and see what happens next May. I do want to transfer though. I'm in Virginia, and not Northern Virginia, the South (country) in the middle of nowhere. Yea there's a lot of food places and some other stuff but it feels like I'm secluded from the world, lol, I know that sounds strange but I grew up in the DMV, I stayed in the suburbs but very close to the city so this different and all though it's not that bad I rather be somewhere I can start achieving goals. Everything is so far from here, and I know I'm here for school but I also want to explore and start doing what I love. The schools I'm looking at is in Virginia (North, near D.C) George Mason University, Temple ( Philadelphia) and NYC ( Fordham University). I'm still deciding on a couple of others but those are top of the list. I've also had a very weird day, it was just 'blah'. I'm honestly fed up sometimes with the internet. People and how they act on it like there some god, and just wack people trying to create some false image of who they are, and sometimes being to connected to it. I don't want to feel attach to these social networks anymore. I love my blog but as you can see its not really how I want it right now. I don't like when things are not to my expectations and this is not. All day I've been thinking about taking a break from everything. From twitter, tumblr, and this blog. I barely get on facebook like that anyways so that's why I didn't include it. I just want to be free. Just want to focus on other things, get my mind right. Also work on the list I made, which I will probably post later when I'm actually doing it. I don't know for how long. No later than January 1st probably. I'm not saying I will never be on Twitter again until then but its going to be limited, with tumblr too. Sadly to say this blog too. Until I get things in order, start fresh and fix it up. Just bring better content. The one reason also is because I don't have a camera yet. I asked for the Nikon D5000 for Christmas, I really want to be a videographer and thats going to help my start. Besides, I want to take great pictures for this blog and I can't cause the camera I have now cause it sucks. Hopefully I do get it Christmas so I can come back and really improve this blog, and attract more people to be interested in it. I don't know how many people actually visits this blog or look at it but I'm just trying to make it more enjoyable to you'll and myself. Then I'm also going to work on my consistency. I know I'm busy sometimes but it doesn't hurt to take a few minutes and show love to my blog. I may update a couple of times while I'm on this little 'hiatus'. With tumblr and twitter too, but I'm not going to be on it as much. I just need some time. I'm not sure when I'm going to start this but probably in the upcoming week. This is my Tumblr & Twitter if you want to check those out. I'll probably update Tumblr a little more than the rest but I don't how much. Until the next post, Peace & Love.

Clean up

This is my stupid Blackberry. It's been messing up ever since I got to College. Yesterday it didn't give me my messages until 5:30 pm. I'm really thinking about getting an Iphone even though I don't care for all touch screen.

Package from mommy :)

This picture came out dark because of my dumb camera

Yes, I know my desk is a mess. Its clutter and messy. That's why today I'm going to take time to clean everything up. I hate when my desk get like this but sometimes it just happens unconsciously. I really need to be more organize too. I'm working on that.

The book/magazine above is just somethings I'm ready right now. I already read the GQ book. I'm really close to finishing the Russell Simmons book, I made a promise to myself to finish it before the month is over. So since today is the 31st I'm going to try and finish that up today. Then soon make my way over to the XXL magazine. It's a shame, I probably had that magazine for about a month now and still haven't looked at it.

Well I'm about to take a shower and watch my hair. Then going to eat then clean up this desk. I'll snap a shot of its cleanliness when I'm finished and post it.
