A cold day!
Today, I woke up really early because I have been coughing and sneezing all day. Well, I think I might be catching a cold. I hope I do not but the odds are that I am because a couple of students are getting sick already. My room mate seems to be getting sick and when you live with sick people you tend to get the sickness as well.
Hey! at least we will all be sick together! have some company and what not! But it is not fun getting sick because your mom is not here to take care of you and baby you.
However, My mom and little sister might be coming up to Wisconsin to visit me during Thanksgiving! I am so excited if they come because I have not seen them since August! And I know I do not really get home sick but it has been a LONG time since I have spent Thanksgiving with them. I think since I was 12 years old I have not spend a good thanksgiving at home. I have always been traveling with Church or school during those days because you have no school and the best time to travel during school and Church because you do not have to miss school days.
But, I went to Madison on Sunday! That was really really exciting I was driving a school van with 6 other classmates. We went to the libraries that were in Madison to do some research for our scientific writing class. We left around 11:30 am and did not come back till 7:45 pm. Yeah long time to study? LoL.. NO...we were on the road for 3 hours back and forth. which left us with a few hours to do research and then we went out for dinner.
This weekend has been extremely busy for me!
I will talk to you tomorrow!

OBAMA!
So, I voted for the first time! Last election I was not 18 during the elections because the elections were in November and my birthday is in December!
BUT! I voted this time for the president! It was very exciting! I also saw the elections on T.v. ..I have to say the even though McCain was defeated he went down on a nice note. I did not see Obama's speech but I will you tube it later.
Last night, there was so much screaming and chanting going on through out the whole campus when the president was announced. There were people mad and some where running around wild. LoL..
Well, I heard that there was a higher turn out of young people voting this year then there have been in recent years. Well, that is held true for our town of Ripon, Wisconsin.
Obama won Wisconsin!
McCain won Texas!
My two states! Texas is my birth place and Wisconsin is my college state!
Well, as a respectful young college student, I must now follow under the rules of Obama, whom has set a historical mark in history. Being the first black president for the United States. It took a long while but we finally made it there. Maybe in 12 to 16 years we will have a Hispanic president!
I hope to be alive when that day comes.
Peace!

The northern leopard frog! Yuck! But they are cute creatures with they are in a the wild or in a container. I am not one that likes to touch frogs or worms! But for my senior project I am using the northern leopard frog.
Yay me!.. LoL I could have chosen anything else but noooooooooooooo I wanted to do frogs! I am currently feeding the frogs meal worms and will be testing them on the Ideal Free distribution model.
Hopefully, it works! I am still learning how to hold a frog.. not with bare hands I must add! I am using latex gloves because I am scared to touch them.
Today one jumped at me and OH MY GOSH... I thought my life had ended! LoL.. SCARIER then a horror a movie!
Well...till next time!

Fallbreak is over
Hey guys!
It has been a while! I am sorry. But we were away for fall break, which is the best week ever because it is a week without classes!
Most of the college students go away to their homes because they live near by. However, there was some college students that stayed on campus and this is without cost. Those that stayed had a whole week where there was no classes and a whole building almost all to themselves.
I stayed on campus because I am from Texas and it is A LOT of money to go home for a week. But! my week was great!!!! I had soo much fun because other friends and family stayed as well because they are from Texas!
Texas is a really great state! Haha... But I have to say Wisconsin doesn't stay far behind! Who would not love living in Wisconsin...even more because it Snows here!!!
We got a few snow flakes? I am not sure if it was snow flakes ... I have been here almost 4 years and I still love the snow!.. But these things that were falling from the sky were like small little cotton balls... not hail but like snow flakes that got made in to snow balls.
It was fun.. but now the day is clear and a bit cold. The signs of winter!!!
MUAH!

Goodevening!
How are you guys doing!?
Well today is a great day to be a Ripon Red Hawk! Our campus will be going green soon!
So that means that there are two streets that intersect right in the middle of campus and the school was granted the priviledge of being able to tear down the streets to make it grassy for the students to walk more freely without having to wait on the cars to pass by. I have noticed that it is safer to walk without having to look both ways. And sometimes at there would be these semi trucks that would be speeding down the street and they think there is an opening to one of the streets but it is actually a dead end and BLAM they hit the brakes! Which is scary for me seeing a huge monster truck going fast and then stopping.
I am glad that we will be having grass there and sidewalks instead of the streets makes it more homey!
So, here is a joke!
What did the homie say to the house that fell on him?
answer: Get off of me, homes!
LoL... I thought it was funny!
Have a great day! Because it is always a GREAT day to be a RED HAWK!!!!!!
