Christmas Break !!!

 Holy cow its about time we have reached a long break from college. I can't even begin to explain how much this is needed right now. I'm so excited I never have to take speech class again. This week has been so stressful with all the homework that has been due. Like why do we get homework when we need to be studying for your exam instead. However, I have been grateful because out of all my classes I have only two of them have a final exam, and I don't think I'm gonna have to study long for Calculus since I already took that class. 

I was talking to one of my friends a couple days ago from IU and he was talking about how the teachers changed the name of the week before exams to care week to remind students to take care of themselves during the last two weeks of the semester. Like why you gonna act like you care about our health while you post three homework assignments the next day you say to take care of yourself plus a 10 page study guide for the final exam and say this is only half of the material that's gonna be on the test. I don't think care week is the best name, could have used more thought, unless the person who came up with it really enjoys sarcasm. 

The only motivation I have left in my body is being completely used up to finish the last of my homework for this week. I've had a day by day plan I have been following in order to not stress myself out with homework overload and so far it has been working. However, Friday and Saturday is going to be a struggle because I saved the more difficult homework for those days. Whether that was a good choice or not we will just have to wait and see. But don't worry guys we can all get through this stressful 2 weeks together, and no you're not the only one doing 3 hours of homework a day. Pretty sure every kid in college right now is doing the same. It isn't just at PNW.



Ghost busters was a bust

 Over the weekend I went with a couple of friends to see the new ghost busters movie at the amc in Schererville. Don't worry i"m not going to spoil the movie at all in this blog, but I might convince you to stay home and save 12 bucks instead of wasting 2 hours on a terribly made movie. 

The movie had some funny moments throughout the movie, and the build up was alright. However, this can't take away from how poorly the fights were filmed. Not a single time in the movie did I feel anxious or scared for the heroes. It almost seemed as if the film makers ran out of money for the film in the first hour of the movie and had to work with pocket change for the rest of the movie. Even after the movie ended it seemed like everybody else was glad it was over, a couple of kids even said it sucked which made me happy because I thought I was the only one. I should have went to see the new Resident Evil movie instead. 

Sometimes film makers gotta realize that they need to stop making sequels of movies and just come up with a new idea. In my opinion it's been a while since ghost busters has been good. Instead of doing it for the money get creative and think of something new.  Same thing with fast and furious, what are they on the 25th movie now, seems like whenever one of them comes out and you go to watch it you can see the trailer for the next one already as well.

Spotify Premium

I have had spotify for a couple of years, and every single other song I would have to listen to multiple ads in order to get to the next song which really sucks when your on a long car ride or having a concert in the shower. I enjoy listening to music whenever I can get the chance to, and when I do I make sure the volume is all the way up, but it's really loud and embarrassing when an advertisement blasts on full volume when I'm in public so I talked with my parents to see if they would allow me to get spotify premium. At 1st the told me no and said to watch the ad for 30 minutes of ad free music instead.

However, a little later after I had mentioned spotify premium, they got it for themselves on my brother cause they gt the family plan. But the family plan only allows 3 people to share the premium and my brother signed into their account before I had the chance. So about a year later of interrupted concerts and car rides my mom surprised me with an early birthday present and got spotify premium on my phone. 

I don't think I have listened to so much music in my life. I have to constantly recharge my speaker daily because I listen to so much music. I have it playing in the shower, when I work out, when I go frisbee golfing, and when I'm playing Xbox. I wouldn't be surprised if my parents are currently planning on canceling my subscription to spotify so they don't have to listen to my music. However, I don't listen to rap and my music taste is about the same as theirs so that probably helps out my case a lot. Unlike my brother, he enjoys rap and my parents do not so maybe he is the one they are thinking of kicking off the plan. I don't think I can go back to watching ads, it is so much better not having any breaks in my playlist its almost hard to explain.
