Life Lately......

Tons of things have been going on in my life lately. First of all I am the new Vice-President for the Arkansas Tech PRSSA Chapter. Congrats to the other new officers as well it is going to be an amazing year!
The weather is warm and I am so ready for the lake. Summer is my favorite time of the year and the more I'm outside walking around campus or taking a jog the more I want to be on the boat on the lake just floating along and enjoying life. My family goes to the lake at all different time throughout the summer. Spending time with my family is a very big deal to me so I love just escaping to the lake and getting to relax. If I could actually be away from my phone for more than an hour I would probably relax a little more.
Its already time to start making schedules for the fall. Its stressful but at the sametime I am so ready for a little change in pace. I found out I will be living in South Hall again! This is pretty exciting for all of you that don't know South Hall is pretty much THE place to be these days. I'll be living with my best friend and sister Paige. Fall 2010 is going to be a great semester I got all of the classes I wanted and I can't wait for fall recruitment to start!

Free The West Memphis Three

Free the West Memphis Three. This has become a common phrase for me. I am an advocate and a voice for the West Memphis Three. The West Memphis Three are three men who have spent time in jail for something they should of never even been on trial for. These three men are Damien Echols, Jessie Miskelley, and Jason Baldwin. They were all accused of murdering three young boys in West Memphis, Arkansas. These three men have been in jail for seventeen years for crimes they did not commit. Many people have chosen to support the West Memphis Three, I am just one voice within thousands. I plan to write more about their story and some of the appeals cases that they have been through.

Facebook

Oh the things that Facebook can tell us. Who is that in a relationship? Why is this person sad? Facebook makes it so easy to find out every aspect of our friends lives. I'm honestly not sure what I did before the crazy world of facebook. Its an interesting little world out there. Sometimes I wonder who exactly looks at my profile or pictures or other various things I provide my viewers with. I remember the first time I ever heard of Facebook, I was in the ninth grade and these people from the U of A were talking to us about how college students meet other people on campus and Facebook was one of their many tools. At that time you had to be a certain age to have facebook or you had to be in college. Well as soon as it was an open site I was one of the first people at my high school to get it. I loved having new friend requests everyday and messages and at that point I didn't have a cell phone so it was really my only way of figuring things out. Now there is Facebook around the world and even my parents and fourteen year old brother have a Facebook. Thankfully my grandma isn't quite sure how to work a computer so she doesn't have Facebook but I see peoples' grandparents on there everyday. Facebook really is an amazing thing depending on how you use it. If you use it in a way that could be hurtful then you shouldn't use it at all but if it's in a positive way then go for it!
