Why Wright State

Wright State has been the only choice for me because I wanted to. I planned on coming here to be the manager for the woman's basketball team, but when Coach Williams got let go, so did my plans. I had no intentions at that point to be the manager. I have known Coach Williams for a very long time and when she asked me three years ago to be her manager I never thought this would happen. I was an average student in High School so this was the best college for me with my GPA. OSU was my dream college because of the football team and because they had a great program for my major. OSU went up in smoke when I knew I would not get in because of my ACT scores, GPA, and money. I am from Beavercreek but that doesn't mean I have money for a school like that which really crushed me. My mind has been changed since I started school here. My heart is still set for the Buckeyes but I'm glad I stayed close to home. I do not mind living at home, my family understands that I need quiet time and they respect that. I get away by being in school that is all I need because I would not be here today without the love and support of my family. WSU has an excellent nursing program that I am overly excited to begin. WSU is close to home, close to my friends, inexpensive compared to a school I would love to go to, has great amenities, I could get away and live on campus but still be right in my hometown (Fairborn), and my friends are here. I love having friends here and making new ones. WSU is the college I am happy to say I attend even if my heart goes bleed scarlet and grey.

Even Angels

The song I chose was "Even Angels" by Fantasia. I heard this song not too long ago and loved it and realized I could use this in my blog. It was way too hard to pick just one song for this blog. This song represents me moving on from my Aunt passing. The song was not even thought of when she passed but looking now it ties in me moving on to college without her here to help me.

“Since you been gone, I learned how to move on
How to be myself, I don’t need nobody so
I’m doing so good, I forgot that I could
Live like this, woohh”

This part really describes me moving on and being grown up that I can do it alone I just have to take that step.

“First step, take a deep breath
You don’t need a reason why
You can, you can take, take time
You can, you can walk, run, dive
Close call, you think you might fall
But all you gotta do is try
Even angels, even angels learn to fly”

Just as the chorus says right there that even angels learn to fly. You just have to try it and if you fail then get back up and try again. You can be brave on your own and I know I can do it even if it is just having her in my heart. She will always be there with me even if I’m in a room all alone she is there with me. This song reminds me to keep going if I don’t succeed the first time.

I believe the purpose was to provide and inspirational song for people to hear and can relate to and know that it is going to be okay.

The audience can be anyone really probably more geared to girls getting over a loss of a boyfriend maybe and knowing that you can do it on your own just as well as if you had someone.

The genre of this song is pop.

Media is a YouTube video, CD, mp3, and a song.

About Me

With this being the first blog post I thought I would tell everyone a little about myself. I am a freshman here at Wright State, I want to become a nurse practiotioner. I love my family and friends. I have the best friends anyone could have. I have a passion for music, if I had a choice between being blind or deaf, I would choose blind because music is my way of relaxing and venting. I like a variety of music, country, hip-hop, rap, classical, classic rock, and rock. I am not a big screamo fan at all. My favorite band right now is Avenged Sevenfold (R.I.P. Rev). Music is my escape as well as my friends. My friends have shaped me to who I am today and I love who I am. I had some friends back in middle school that were not good people and once I got into High School I realized that is not the crowd I want to be associated with. My boyfriend has also helped me through everything and I love him for that. I love football and baseball, I love arguing with guys on sports related subjects because they under estimate my knowledge. I love shopping like very other girl too. Mainly music is what life sounds like and I am following my own beat in life.
