I think that the reason I haven't been updating my blog is because I haven't had anything very interesting on my mind. Here lately, I haven't been inspired to write anything worth my time and effort. It's sort of a pressing issue on my life right now.
I used to have such a passion for writing, I would come up with something new every week or even on a daily basis. But, as though I'm a dried up sponge, I have no water to take in or squeeze out anymore. I need an epiphany.
What do you write about when you have writer's block? (Nothing?) Actually, writer's block. That's the point of this post isn't it? And, it's good to hear from you again, by the way.
I don't know how, but for some reason, I have a lot of views on my blog page. Maybe it's just a bunch of trolls just skimming by to see if there's anything they can spam... or maybe, just maybe, there might actually be intelligent life out there trying to see if I've updated in the past two years. Sadly, this is my first post in a very long time. For good reason though.
For the past two years, I have been trying to get myself out of a rut. Every time I think I'm out, I've fallen into another one. It's a vicious cycle, really. (So, you haven't made it out yet?) No, not yet. I've still managed to get myself into yet another rut, it seems. (How awful that must feel..) You're so nice to consider my feelings! Yes, well, it's not the worst rut I've been in yet.
So, does this mean I'll start posting again? Maybe.. That all depends. I've actually found the motivation to write today, perhaps I'll find it tomorrow.

Thrust Back In Time! Could You Handle The Truth?!
Have you ever thought, "I definitely could have been born in an earlier time."? I'll answer that question for you. OF COURSE YOU HAVE! Everyone has. But, are we being honest with ourselves? Think about it... Nowadays, we have:
-Cellphones
-Toilet Paper
-Internet
-Deodorant
-Television
-Computers
-Shampoo
-Facebook
-Hot Water
-Sliced Bread
-Showers
-Soap
-Dishwashers
-Hospitals
-Hair Products
-Microwaves
-Washers and Dryers
-Toilets
-Air Conditioning
-Refrigerators and Freezers
-Tweezers
-Radio
-Razors
-Antibiotics
-Equality
-Vehicles
-The option to brush our teeth...
-Etc.
I think you get my point. We've become spoiled to our generation. For some, if they were inadvertently thrust back in time by some kind of failed NASA experiment, they would adjust quickly to the environment. As for the rest of us... Probably not so much.
I've always said that if I were to go back in time to say... the twenties, I would fit in no problem. I would enjoy myself immensely. People have even told me that I look like I could be from the early nineteen hundreds. If I went back in time with no way to come back to the future, I think I might die. Literally. I would probably get shot by someone in a gang, or ingest dirty water and get some kind of infection that my immune system has never been trained to fight off and/or I would surely die of tuberculosis (which was very common back then).
I wouldn't be upper class either. Not even upper-middle class. I wouldn't even be middle class. It would be my luck that I would be out on the streets trying to get people to give me bread. (Maybe not that far...)
Then AGAIN! I have information from the future. My very existence would create a ripple effect in history anyways.. I might as well make it a drastic one, right? I'll invent the traffic light! The Stop sign! Other things! Then I will be know as the smartest woman in History! Either that, or men will just take my ideas and roll with them... Although, they weren't my ideas in the first place, so I wouldn't really have the right to complain.
ANYways... If you went back in time, what era do you think you would be able to adapt to in the easiest possible way? Do you think you would be able to live a long and happy life in that era? Do you think I forgot anything in my list? Comment below and like my post. Thanks. (:

Workin' on My Thoughts...
I realised that I work on this blog quite a bit... It may not look like it from the outside, but on most of the posts I put up, I work on them for days at a time. I really do put a lot of time and effort into this blog. Don't get me wrong, I don't feel under appreciated or anything... I just want you all to know that I don't under appreciate you.
There will be a new post soon.

My College Experience
There's no tellin' what it's really like to be in college...but, I guess I'll have to try.
College gives you a sense of responsibility. You're around mature people, so you feel that you must be mature as well. At this age, you either feel like you're a beginner or you think you know exactly what you're doing.
High school-ers don't really understand the full impact of the world. They're busy in their little social circles with their friends, homework, and drama. We all know about the drama. I don't really need to spell it out..
I never had drama in my circle of friends. I saw it, though...oh, boy did I see it.
"She stole my boyfriend!", "She likes him, more than you!", "Did you see that look she just gave me?!", "I cannot believe she said that!", "And then she said,'...' ", "Turn around and walk away! Walk away before I beat your face in!!", "I'm gonna scratch your eyes out!!"
Okay...I may have thrown the last two in there for effect...but it does get nuts. I actually saw a girl spinning another girl around by her hair! The girl that was spinning had a bag of suckers in her hand, and when they went flyin', everyone was like,"Yay! Free suckers!"
You never really know what's going to happen in high school. I may just be a freshman...but I think I know that college seems a little more safe. Sure, it may be just as predictable...but you don't really hear about bullies in college as much as you do in high school...but, that might just be me...
Now, let's talk classes.
Classes are difficult. But, they're spelled out for you. The professors make sure you understand, they even give you their email address and phone number for you to contact them if you need help. They actually encourage you to go to their office and talk things out with them. Any problems, anytime. BUT! Yes, there is a but....a Big but. They expect you to be responsible. What?! Did she just say, "responsible"? WHAT?!
Yes, if you go in there and you start acting like a high school student(not finishing your homework, not turning it in on time, not being prepared for class, not reading the material you were given, not listening, not showing up[lots-o-nots], making up excuses, etc.),they may just slap you.
Okay...they're not going to do that, but they won't like you very much. They might even ignore you because, to them, you are annoying.
The thing is, they don't care if you don't care. And you NEED to care. Someone is paying for you to go there and you need to use that time wisely...in this case, time really does equal money. I know you hear everyone say that people are always switching their major and it's not a big deal... well, it's not until your taking 6 years of college for a career that only requires 2-4. Then, you're asking yourself, where did the time go? And, where did my money go? I think you'll figure it out.
Anyway...I haven't spent that much of my life in college, only about a semester and two days. But, I think I know enough to say something about it.
