I was watching Good Morning America after training today and heard a disturbing story. In February of last year an 11 year old boy in Pennsylvania was accused of murdering his soon-to-be step mother.  The woman was 26 years old and 8 months pregnant.  He is now in the process ...

I found out tonight that there is a troll in our midst.  Have you ever spotted the troll that controls the fire downtown?  If not, you surely need to take a trip over to the Keeper of the Plains and say hello.  Don't worry--he's all grated up and can't touch ...

I feel as if yesterday was a monumental day in my life.  What was it that made the day so extraordinary?  Not much, really.  I attended a couple of communication seminars that made me thankful I had changed majors.  They also made me aware of the fact that even though ...

Something tragic happened yesterday.  I ran out of coffee in my dorm room.  This means that until I make it to Walmart to buy some more I will be surviving on cups acquired elsewhere... luckily Scooters has fantastic coffee but I have to remember to leave early for classes in ...

When I got out of workout this morning the sky was on fire.  What a beautiful sunrise!  Watching the sun come up is something I enjoy about getting up early.  How many college kids actually do that?  Most days I see the sun both rise and set (while at practice ...

Hi everyone, This week has been pretty crazy. 2 math tests (that  I got  Awesome grades in), some papers, golf as usual, work :), and more. But over all I feel very relaxed at the moment. I think it is because all of the busy stuff  is out of the way. ...

OLYMPICS! I'm so excited!  As I sit here and watch the opening ceremonies, I can't help but notice that the commercials are better than the ones for the superbowl.  Well we all know what's more important!!! GO USA! I love watching the Olympics!  These games bring so many nations together.  Can ...

Technology hates me.

Technology hates me.  No, it really does.  I don’t understand it, but I have more technological problems than anyone else I know.  It’s not that I don’t know how to use the technology: generally, I do.  I grew up in a tech savvy house and although Raymond makes fun of ...

  Many people believe that one's senior year of college is similar to one's senior year of high school. You rule the campus, go to class whenever you want, leisurely do your school work, stay out late and often and essentially throw all caution to the wind. For many seniors and my fellow ...

I tried to start writing a blog for about 20 min ago, but for once I had nothing to say!? So my cure against silence was to browse the Swedish newspaper SvD. Today they had an article about a Muslim man who refused to shake hands with a female representative ...
