Love Gives Me Hope

I'm back!!!

So...it's been FOREVER and a day since I've last made a blog entry. A lot has been happening in life, and it was just too much for me to update, I guess. ><;

Hmm...what's new?

COLLEGE. I am currently a student at NC State University. I am loving college right now. It's good to be able to just start all over with a clean slate. I am also a member of a hip-hop/cultural dance crew at NCSU called Fusion. It's also the best dance crew on campus. ~_^ I'm starting to become accustomed to the college life. I haven't really been partying, but I think my current college life is still fun. ^_^

NEW HOME. I'm actually staying at a place right outside of campus. Campus is literally across the street. Haha! I love it here though. The food and rooms are a lot better than what's offered on campus. We have our own dining hall, swimming pool, pool tables, a lot of vending machines, laundry room, fitness room, house-keeping, etc. There are four operating elevators too. My friend jokes that I stay in a hotel. He insists on calling this place "Holiday Inn." XD But yeah, my side of the room has been pretty empty...well...the walls, at least. I've finally brought some posters from home to put up. My sister even randomly dug up a SUPER OLD poster of Rain (λΉ„). I bought that poster AGES ago; I completely forgot it existed. O__o

ROOMMATE. I really like my roommate. Her name is Amie. :) She's really nice, and we have a lot of things in common. One of the most important things: we're both kids at heart. I'm so glad about that because I was afraid my roommate would be like "WTF?" if I ever suggested for us to watch a Disney movie or something. ^^;

FUSION. Dance has pretty much taken over my life recently. I've been spending a lot of time practicing dances for Fusion. I love the Fusion fam already. Everyone is really friendly and approachable. I love how the crew really does have a family vibe, and the entire group is so talented. I'm super excited that I made the team. Fusion Love; Fusion for Life. ♡

SINGING. Actually, I haven't done much singing since I got to college. It's hard to sing when you have a roommate and you're living in a dorm. I've decided not to audition for the choir. I don't really think it's my style, and the reason I was in choir from 5th through 12th grade was because that was the only way I was able to sing in school everyday. I love to sing, and that was pretty much the only chance for me to perform. I think I have finally found a place to sing and record videos: our music center. There are little rooms for people to practice in. I think I'll just bring my Mac in there one day and just record videos. I miss singing, so that should be fun. ^_^

BANANA GRAMS! I am obsessed with this game, and I'm not afraid to admit it. If you've never played it, you need to. It's kind of like Scrabble, except it's much better. Haha! ^o^ This game is so intense. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!! Hehe~

LADY GAGA. JUSTIN BIEBER. Two concerts that are waiting for me. :) I can't wait.

LUDACRIS. Luda is coming to perform at NC State. All NCSU students were able to get a ticket for free. I love Luda. This is going to be amazing. I saw him back in February when he opened for the Black Eyed Peas, and it was so EPIC. I'm really looking forward to this. It's going to be siiiiick.

YOUTUBE. I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos lately. That makes me sound like I have no life. T^T But I can't help it if there are some YouTubers that I really like. ><; I really like RayWilliamJohnson, glozell1, MichellePhan (of course!), and jayparkaom (another given). One of my all-time favorites, however, is DEFINITELY ItsKingsleyBitch. This guy is probably my favorite person on YouTube. He's hilarious. XD

LOVE. If you've read other posts of my blog, it's possible that you may be wondering about a certain someone whose name begins with the letter J and ends with ason. There's really not much to update though. Everything is always like a roller-coaster with this kid. Touchy subject. Complicated situation. Never-ending story.

LOVE GIVES ME HOPE. I came across this AMAZING website today called Love Gives Me Hope. It's a collection of cute/sweet things that have happened to people. I found a lot of the posts very touching. As a matter of fact (I'm going to sound like a big softie), I was sitting here reading them, and I couldn't help but cry. I guess I was overwhelmed by all the...love. It's good to know that even in this superficial world that we live in today...true love still exists and is acknowledged and appreciated. This website is absolutely correct: "Love gives me hope."
