It Seems Impossible...

There is a quote by Nelson Mandela that goes: "It seems impossible, until it's done"

This quote probably describes my whole 1st year of University. Numerous times I remember talking to my mom or sisters saying that "I can't finish all these essays!" or "I can't do these readings!" At the beginning of the year, with my freshman naivete, I thought "oh just 3 essays, university is so easy!" Boy was I wrong! Those dates WILL all conflict and you will find it impossible to finish that 5 page paper!

This was exactly what I was thinking these past few weeks, as I had a 5 page paper, a 10 page paper, and a group project due on the same 2 days! I was talking to my mom about it, and she can attest that I was about to cry while walking home from the bus because I didn't think I could do it!

BUT today is the day they are due and they are done!! (Huge shout out to Katie for looking over them for me last minute! Thank you!)

"I Don't Wanna Wait"

I have always been a lover of the "teen drama" when it comes to television shows. They are incredibly addicting, and there are so many of them for one to enjoy! I believe my love affair began in the fall of 2007 when Gossip Girl first aired, and I was instantly hooked! The following year 90210 began and my love continued to grow as I would watch the OC, and Gilmore Girls! I remained watching these shows devoutly for the following years. But the summer before my senior year is when my devotion truly blossomed! This was when my lovely sisters introduced me to the world of Capeside! Dawson's Creek... I do not even know what words to put together to accurately describe my deep love for this show. It is quite possibly the best show for anyone between the ages of 15 and... well I plan on watching it for years to come, so let's say 40? Yep, I may be finished my obsession with Dawson, Pacey, and Joey by then (but no promises)! After I had finished the whole series of Dawson's Creek, my sisters introduced me to many other shows including Everwood, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and more that I am sure I have forgotten at the top of my brain. Right now I am beginning One Tree Hill (I know, I know I am a little slow to hop on the bandwagon as they are beginning the last season and all) and so far I am loving it! I am not sure what it is about these shows that are so addicting, there are so many perfect attributes to them that it is everything together which makes them so wonderful!
I must go and continue watching One Tree Hill, because once I finish it I am going to begin Felicity... but I shall leave you with the theme of Dawson's Creek and let it bring back some memories!
