Being in charge isn’t easy…

The first full issue of the newspaper came out Thursday and drama has already begun with the newspaper this year. F.I.R.E., Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, who has been backing one of my school’s former students who was suspended for stupid reasons, bought an ad in our newspaper, our city’s newspaper, and the U.S. World News & Report, basically dissing our school. It caused drama at our school, with both of my jobs clashing, and just, it’s annoying. (more…)

Tryin’ to keep from going under…

I admit that I’ve been distancing myself from certain things lately. Usually when things start to get on my nerves, annoy me, or just plain out piss me off, I’ll distance myself and not tell someone, but kind of let them know in a certain way. I’ve been distancing myself from Twitter and while part of that is because I’ve been to busy to tweet and with my phone being disconnected, yeah, not easy. I’ve been distancing myself from NASCAR lately. I even contemplated missing the Bristol night race to go to the football game.

Fly on the wall

Tomorrow is Friday and so it ends the first week of my final year of college. Sure, I thought last year would be it but my life and direction has taken a real strange turn since last fall. I think I’ve found what I’m good at and what I understand.  I think I also understand why Taylor complained a lot last year. Being the Editor-in-Chief is a tough job.

Living in a crazy world…

As you can probably tell by the lack of updates the past few days, everything with me is back in session. The paper is back in session. Class started back today. Work is still going on and I came home and passed slap out until about 9:15 tonight. I was so tired on the way home that I almost fell asleep driving.

Once I get into the swing of things, the regular gossip updates will be back…. the first few days is always hectic!

My schedule this semester? (more…)

I’ve been awake almost 19 hours…

I didn’t sleep good last night. I’m not sure why. I guess because I was still worrying about my books and the fact that something happened with payroll again. I didn’t get paid for the newspaper and we’re all not sure what happened, but they’re cutting me a check and I’m picking it up Monday so that’s okay. The lady in payroll said I had a black clound hanging over me when money is concerned, which is true, especially when it’s stuff at school. (more…)
