This is a mans world. Is it? Really?

I LOVE SPORTS!! More specifically Football and Basketball! But love all the same! When I say I mean love!! I'm not watching just to see men in tight pants or how good someone looks today! Granted I'm a female and at times this does happen but I honestly have a love for the game!

My goal is to work in college football and depending on how ambitious I'm feeling potentially coach college football! I love it that much. I'm not able to describe the natural high I get from watching it on television, or being on the field, or just even talking about it! It feels so natural! I can't imagine doing anything else with the rest of my life! Needless to say it drives me BONKERS to hear guys degrade women as if they have no idea what they're talking about! Really though? It's that hard for you to believe that during the fall, on every Saturday morning in high school I woke up early to watch ESPN (because if you didn't know College Day was on) only then to pick a spot on the couch and watch every single game that came on that day! Can you not fathom that I actually know all the positions! Really though? That's how we're playing! I just want to be taken seriously! I would like my opinion to be heard when discussion about the NBA playoffs are taking place. Or to be heard when discussion about Rich Rod happen (i.e. I have never doubted that he was a great coach but I knew his style and the timing were not right for MI. Want to know more just ask me.)

I know have a "girly" persona! I like to look and smell nice! I wear Big earrings and get manicures and pedicures! My hair is always done and my eyebrows are usually arched! But this does not mean that I am illiterate when it comes to the world of sports. And if there's something I don't know I can always just call up my padre who happens to be a record holding line backer from U of M, who played with the Bengals and happened to start in his rookie season! So trust me I have a solid foundation! I bet a few of you young lads wish you could boast that!

Could you Speak up? I can't hear you.

I have always had difficulty standing up for myself or voicing my voice as the young folks say. Speaking my mind and expressing my thoughts and ideas terrifies me. I'm not confident in my opinions and often worry that I'm wrong. These thoughts are only heightened by my ever present anxiety. I'm constantly overthinking and concerned that no one wants to hear what I have to say. To me, my thoughts don't matter to anyone other than myself. My voice often shakes and gets quiet when I'm trying to express myself. I am either worried that my opinions will harm/offend or will go unnoticed. There are several moments over the course of my life where I regret not speaking up or saying something that was on my mind. There is a constant internal struggle that happens every time I faced with a moment to express myself. More often than not, I end up silencing myself. Which I can openly admit has done nothing for me.  All I ended up with was a nagging regret that I should have sa...

Ode to Ann Arbor

In about 4 days I will be saying farewell to Ann Arbor. And like I said before I'm excited to be going home but there is also a saddens that surrounds my move. I have done a lot of growing, changing, experiencing, and evolving here! So to have to say farewell to all of that is going to be difficult. I will miss: 1. Second Baptist!! I learned a lot about myself at this church. I am glad to call this my church home because without them I would probably be a hot mess! The one thing I can say faithfully is that my journey with them is not over! There are still things that need to be done here I will be back! 2. My friends!! I have met so many different people here. Some that will never leave, some that kept me entertained during class and others that I have drifted away from. But they all had a part in Michigan experience. 3. Gamma Delta! I have been through a lot with these young women and couldn't have asked to be part of a better, more productive, or more illustrious chapter!! T...

Right place...Right Time

God sure does work in mysterious ways! I know people say this all the time and it can get kind of old...until it happens to you! I was supposed to work today but my "big sister" had to have surgery and needed someone to take care of her for most of the day until my was able to take over the reigns. At this point I'm freaking out because I hate calling off work. For most people this isn't that big a deal but to me making a commitment is a big deal...and plus Direct Loans wants their money! BUT I also didn't want my "big sister" sitting alone not able to take care of herself. I decided to call off work and stay with her. This turns out to be a good thing. While I'm with her a woman she attends church with stops by for a visit and is asking me all types of questions. We begin talking about how I just graduated from Michigan and that I was taking time off before applying to grad school. I told her I was working at Trader Joe's.....and then she offers...
