Activity 2, Assignment 1

I decided to choose effects of not exercising because I am trying to convince my friend to start exercising with me after our hiatus. The similarities are that the second website for each engine is the same. Another similarity is that they all have livestrong in each engine. They also have the typical
 top five websites are the same. The differences is the order of which the website came up with. Another difference is that in metacrawler, it came up with a university website which surprised me.

Divide and

What do I do with my life? I'm so afraid..I'm so afraid that I won't be able to make it in life. I feel like I cannot do anything. I don't have the capabilities of doing something great. In high school, it was so easy. But now everything is different. I mean, I'm getting A's so far, but I don't know. I just want to help people..But I feel like I am not smart enough to...do it..

Conquer.

First semester of college is finally finished!!!!! Boy, was it difficult! but I did it haha! hopefully my grades will be okay :O! It's christmas break <3333333

Hope everyone have an amazing break :)

MOoOooOoooOOoooo

WOW! it has been a very long time since I've been here. I have been busy lately with school. It's my first year in college, and wow, it is a BIG change. O_O. I had never took AP classes in high school, so I had no idea how hard it would be in college. High school was a breeze for me, and in college I actually have to study. I usually hang out with Patrick and Jimie everyday and it's really nice. We're like the three musketeers hahaha. We're always seen with each other, and if one is missing, then something is wrong. It's almost Thanksgiving already, but it's not going to be that fun. I have to take my wisdom teeth out on the day before Thanksgiving, so no yummy food for me :(. AND! I have to write papers...great.....

But besides from all that, my life isn't that bad. I go home at around 1-3 sometimes, and it's really nice :). Overall, college is pretty nice. =]

Awhile ago, me and my best friend had fears that we would separate because we go to different schools now. She's still in high school, so it would be hard for us to hang out. But I came to realize that if both people try, everything will work out. So the fear is gone, and we're even better than before ^__^

Here are some pictures from halloween! muahwhwhahaha. Can anyone guess who we are :D?

And the group!

Dialogue in the dark and Ra!

So I went to Dialogue in the dark recently, and it was intense. Basically, you're in a building and you go into this room with a cane and then they shut the lights off. It is pitch black, and you cannot see the hand in front of you. You are lead by a blind guide into this familiar, new world. Throughout the journey, you will take a walk in the park, go grocery shopping, cross the street, and ride a boat. It is hard because you will eventually want to see again, but you can't until you finish the event. It made me really think that wow, we can see again in about 5-10 minutes, but these people will never ever get to see again. And we were helped lead by my friend's little sister who is only 7. So, that was interesting.
After that, we went around looking for a sushi restaurant called Ra. The GPS took us around and around and we wasted so much gas doing nothing. We spent about 30-45 minutes looking for the place with the GPS until Truc My turned it off and turned it back on. AND THEN! it worked...That was frustrating.
But it was a wonderful day, so it was all good :)

Everything is just a dream...

You ever had that wishing for your future to turn out happy, but in the end it won't? Because you know things will not work out the ways you wish it to be because life is not easy. Life is never easy, and it doesn't matter how good of a person you are, your future is blegh. I have finally came to that conclusion today, and I now know that my future is clear.
