Battle to Final Four

I'm sure we all know that our lady bears basketball team will be playing Texas A&M TONIGHT for the fourth time this season. Our lady bears have won all three of the previous games just barely so tonight should be a great game!! Being an athlete, I know that when it comes down to it, it doesn't matter which team has more talent or skill, but that the team that fights the hardest and shows the most heart will take the win. This is particularly why tonight's game has got Baylor fans nervous to see what the turn-out will be. After losing three times you sure as heck should know that those Aggie girls are going to come out fiercer than ever, ready to win tonight. Not only have we beat them in all three games this year but out of the past 25 Baylor VS A&M match-up's Baylor has won.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that our girls will have their best game ever tonight and be on their way to the final four!!

^ Legit link with a legit video of our girls about the A&M game!

If you're not one of the lucky few who gets to go to the game tonight then you should come to the game watching party in NORTH VILLAGE! WOOOH. Hahaha, I'll be there! They're gonna have food and drinks and a big TV to watch the game on and anybody is welcome! 

Alrighty well that's all for now! Sic 'Em!!!!

Clever Title

Since we are having a current events quiz tomorrow, or so at least I'm guessing we are... I figured it'd be good to talk about the news!! Plus I'm using this as my way of studying for the quiz tomorrow, since I never really read the news. Anyways, as I'm sure we've all heard, Elizabeth Taylor passed away today at age 79. ): Sad, sad. 

Today in chapel a guy from Japan but here at school went up and talked about raising money for Japan. His  family lives in Tokyo and luckily they're all alright! I hadn't really thought about how it could actually be affecting people near us here at Baylor, but after hearing him speak I started to! Long story short- he spoke at chapel, it was touching, and he's put out a donation jar in the Spiritual Life Center I believe... I donated some mulaaaa so ya'll should too!!! (:

We all know gas prices are INSANE, and I actually feel like they went down a few cents here in Wacko but... either way they're still skyrocketing. Here's an interesting link to what people think about it! Must say I agree. Pyscho Gas Prices

Last but  not least... here's a link about Detroit losing 25% of it's population!? I had no idea this was going on and the article is actually really interesting! Since 2000 Detroit's population has dropped by 25% because of the auto industry? I know, sounds weird... but if you click here it will tell you all the details!


Alright guys, hope I helped you out  a little bit! See you all tomrorow!

Advancer

So even when reading the class outline for how to write our Advancer's I was kind of stumped on exactly how they work... SOOOOOO... I "binged" Advancer examples and thought I'd share just incase anyone else was kind of stumped too! Here's what I found:

Event Advancer

I ended up doing my Advancer paper on Theta's annual Denim Dash fundraiser for our national philanthropy CASA. I wouldn't be surprised if you see a few more advancers on this event since there's four Theta's in our class! Wooohooo! Represent!

Here's a piece of my advancer:



            This Wednesday is Kappa Alpha Theta’s annual Denim Dash to help support and fund their national philanthropy CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate). Last year the sorority was able to raise nearly 1,200 dollars for CASA through this event. The chapter sells designer jeans for low prices and all the proceeds go to the CASA foundation. 


            CASA is a non-profit organization that appoints volunteers to watch over abused and neglected children. CASA’s main goal is to steer these unfortunate kids away from getting lost in the burdened legal and social service system or end up in foster homes. . . . 


Well, I hope everyone has an awesome spring break!!! See you guys in a week and a half!!! (:

T-Minus 4 Days

This week couldn't go by any slower. Blah! I am so excited for spring break and it's making it go by so much slower. Boo. Although, I'm really not doing anything too exciting, I am just really looking forward to going back home for a week! And then I think my family is going on a small vacation to some Hyatt resort in Bastrop.
Well, we had 6:30 AM workouts again this morning... kill me. But today is a beautiful day so I will get to spend the rest of my day outside doing HW or something! Yay!


"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
