I also had an RHA meeting that went very well. It went off without a hitch and I feel the members had a very fun time and maybe this will keep our numbers up at every meeting. The Director of housing was there and he seemed very pleased.
I also play in a couple soccer leagues. this week I had a grand total of 3 games. Going from no games to 3 in one week has basically put my body through hell. Its fun but at the same time I feel like death is constantly around the corner.
A buddy of mine also has a blog and had me thinking about my own personal happiness. right now with all the student organizations and sports and classes that I currently have I feel a bit stretched, but at the same time I feel great. I love constantly having something to do, or play. I love having programs and meeting to go to. I love feeling important on campus and with the 3 main organizations I am in I feel just that. I LOVE IT.
Til Next Time.

It was okay because we put her in with the rest of her family. The plot that she was put on was the family plot. My grandma's parents and grandparents and her whole family along with my grandpa, and his brothers and sisters along with his parents. It was cool to see all the history there. I may want to come down later in life when I have kids and show them what my family was like and who lived where. As it stands however I really don't ever want to come back to Arkansas. It is dull and there is nothing where I am.. although they do have a Wal-Mart.

Arkansas
I don't know where I am going to find the strength to do this. My family is with me but they have their own thoughts and feelings.
We bury her tomorrow and we leave on Sunday going back home. Monday is MLK day so I have the day off. I am going snowboarding... if we still have snow.
Until Next Time.

I guess lately I have been feeling a little out of. My grandmother passed away on Dec. 31 at about 8am. She was 82 years old. She was in chemotherapy for uterine cancer. Basically one of the medicines she was on shut down her kidneys and from there, the rest of her body shut down. We found out about the cancer in October and by the end of December she was gone.
I was extremely close to my Grandma. I lived with her for a full year when my grandfather passed away when I was in high school. I got to know a side of her that the rest of my family didn’t get to see. I was able to talk to her and she would always encourage me to do what I wanted. She always wanted to see me succeed in everything I did. She wanted me to go to college and get a good job. She wanted me to do better than my mother did and than she did.
She is my inspiration for most of what I do at this point in my life. Living with her gave me quite a bit of insight in her life and the life of the rest of my family. I will always value what she taught me and the stories she told.
My mom doesn’t understand the connection that I had with her. Just thinking of all the cooking and cleaning and watching TV that we did together makes me miss her more. However I feel that she is in a better place and she is no longer suffering because I know she was in a lot of pain. Most of it she wasn’t even telling us about.
I will always miss her, but now she is with my grandfather and looking down upon us. At her funeral it was sunny and happy. It was more of a celebration than a day of sadness. We will be traveling out of state to bury her this weekend. That is always the hardest part.
Til next time. R.I.P. Bobbie Mae Gentry
