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!

Untitled thoughts

After Bible Study last night something hit me; that I have the tendency to be apathetic about things that happen to me in life. I'm willing to just see what happens. Which at times can be a good thing but I have come to realize it hasn't been working for me. There are some things that I need to be more proactive about: 1. My relationship with God. See it's not just enough that I am saved. There is way more to being connected to God then going to church one day a week and telling people that I'm a Christian. While I'm not going to be perfect there are numerous things that I can be doing to strengthen and expand my faith. Beginning with what I do at home. I have always thought that it was possible to just read the Bible once maybe twice a week, pray when I was need of something and everything be OK. This I have come to realize is not true. In order to have the relationship with God that I desire I need to be in constant communication with the Lord. And this has to sta...

#RoadToCandidacy

The moment you've all been waiting for, or maybe not, either way it's here!! As of today at 7:44 am my Qualifying Exams are underway!! That's right, for the next 2 months I will be on locked down writing at least 60 pages in response to 3 questions. Send me snacks, love, luck, motivation, and things to do for fun times (because baby girl will need a break)! Hopefully my depression and anxiety are willing to work with me. With that I am off to get started on Question #1! #RoadToCandidacy

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...
