Currently's (College Edition) Vol. I

Now, I know that I am not a mama (besides to my fur baby, Marley), but I really think that the Currently link up is a fabulous idea. I want to make mine the college edition. I think its a good idea to do this and be able to look back through these hectic years we humans call college and see what I was going through or what I was into. I want to thank Janel from isanonandjanel, for blogging about this, because then I wouldn't have known about it. Without further ado, here is my Currently: College Edition...

Thinking about: Summer! Now that finals are done, and my spring semester is officially over, I feel like I can finally breathe! I am so excited to see what God has in store for me this summer and whether or not he will take me on some wild adventures. I really hope he does! I am also excited that I have joined up with the youth group as a sort of leader for the high school girls. I am hoping to get to spend some quality time with these young ladies this summer.





Reading: I am currently on my second round about of reading the amazing book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. I really love this book as well as the musical!!! If you are into fairy tale type stuff and want to read something a little "wicked" I suggest you pick up this book and have a go at it.

Listening to: Right now I have been having "Let it Go" sung by the amazing Idina Menzel in the movie "Frozen" on repeat constantly. My little sister-in-law and I will march around the house singing this song on the top of our lungs with out shame. We sure know how to "Let it Go". Haha, get it? Ok, ok I'll stop.


Watching: I recently finished all the shows that I have been addicted to and now I am trying to find my newest show interest. Out of curiosity I have begun watching Breaking Amish. I can't wait to catch up on Once Upon a Time and for season 5 of Pretty Little Liars.

Thankful for: I am so thankful for my friends. They have stuck by me through thick and thin, and vice versa. I love that I can talk to them about anything, and when I really need "girl time" they are there for me. I may only have a handful of friends, but they are the best a girl could ask for.















Praying for: I am praying that God provides me with a job this summer. I really need a job that will not cause me to pull my hair out like the last one did. Also, that he helps me find ways to really let go of my stress.

Thanks for reading!!! Until next time...

Cheers,

Bree

Finals...

The time has arrived...that stressful, exhausting, and unforgiving time of the semester in which all college students everywhere hate more than anything in the world...FINALS! I am currently attempting to write my final chapter outlines for my political science 1 class, but do you know what I've come to realize? Anything, and I do literally mean anything catches and holds my attention more than my work right now. Usually I can not stand watching my husband play Call of Duty: Ghosts on his Xbox 360...but right now...that is thee most interesting thing in the world. It's funny how our brain works. When it's time to do something really important because you know that you have procrastinated to the very last second and can no longer go on without doing the assignment, BOOM! The things that usually bore you the most become the most intriguing things in the world. I've tried so hard to limit distractions, seclude myself, and focus. But literally nothing is working. I am so done with this semester and there are only two more days I need to suffer through. Come on Bree, you can do this! Obviously, I can't. I have all of a sudden stopped to write a blog post for Pete's sake. I could probably hold a very interesting and academically filled conversation with myself and still have more fun than doing my last homework assignments before finals. Oh boy. Wish me good luck internet! And stop being so irresistible to my attention!!! 

Cheers,

Bree

I am Bree.

A few facts about me...


Let me start off with saying that I am a little weird...What do you mean Breanna? Well, I mean to say that I am totally cool with being 100% ME. Not to say that I am perfect or that I do not see my flaws and complain about them like any other 20 year old. But I mean to say that I am OK with being the weird, goofy, totally awkward, and sometimes blundering idiot in front of the whole human race. THAT is ME. It is who I am. I understand that some people are not comfortable enough to show their true colors around just anyone. I understand that I get strange looks when I do a random jiggle in the store when a groovy song comes on over the sound system. I am not accepted under everybody else's standards and that is quite alright. What I don't fully understand is why does it matter to you, that person over there, or anybody that I make a fool of myself in front of dozens of people?! Why waste your time scowling at me, judging me for my all around weirdness? I suppose it is just the human nature in everyone. But what does get to me is when someone tells me or anybody that is a goofball to act normal. Im sorry, let me say that again...to ACT normal. If it is acting it isn't being oneself. I joined drama (theatre) so that I could get on stage and ACT like a character. So that I could for a moments time be someone or something else (not saying that I don't like being me) I just love the idea of being able to step out of my skin and into someone else's for a while. But I like doing that on stage. Not doing it 24/7 to put up a front for everyone else's sake. I am goofy. I am weird. No, I don't take things super seriously sometimes, but you can not tell someone to be somebody else. Especially when it is just because you take life too seriously or can't even fathom the idea of being yourself for just a second in front of a stranger. Don't be embarrassed for my sake, I am not embarrassed for me. So why should you be embarrassed for me? or of me? I understand many people will not take me seriously, especially if its a future employer, but understand that I know when it is that I should be serious and professional and when I shouldn't. Anyways...that was just a little background/rant about me and my ideas. lets get down to business shall we?

  • (currently) 20 years old
  • I love, love, love the color Lime green!
  • I am married and have been since before my senior year of high school ended to my high school sweet heart! <3 font="">
  • Camping, hiking, or any kind of outings are my favorite thing to do!
  • I absolutely adore swimming.
  • I want to one day travel the world. And I mean the WORLD! I have since I was very little.
  • I want to one day, with a group of friends, go backpacking.
  • I have a dog named Marley. He is spoiled rotten and I don't treat him like a dog so much as my fur baby. I want more dogs...and a cat, and a rat, and fish, and all kinds of animals!!!!
  • I love animals as you can probably already tell... ^^^
  • I used to play soccer, which is the only sport I get competitive about, so I quite because the JV team I was on wasn't serious enough. But obviously I wasn't serious either because I quite. "That don't make no sense!"
  • I am currently (if I am being honest with myself...) a RELIGIOUS Christian...What I mean by that is I talk the talk but do not walk the walk. I am striving to work on that but I let human nature get the best of me.
  • I am a college student majoring in Liberal Arts with and emphasis in social and behavioral sciences
  • I would like to be a YouTuber, but I keep forgetting to make videos...having videos would help.
  • I love acting, singing (although I am no good) and dancing (although I look funny doing it).
  • Ima goofy goober!
Well until next time, I bide you ado!


Cheers,

Bree

During my REM cycle...

For those of you that have never heard of REM and are wondering what the heck is that?! Let me explain. REM is rapid eye movement sleep. REM sleep is where all your dreams or nightmares happen, and lately I have been having some crazy weird dreams. It's like my brain activity is off the wall and has suddenly started to bring back people from my past who are no longer in my present. Which gets me thinking about how easily someone can just fall out of our lives in the blink of an eye. You can see them in public, make eye contact with them even, and not say a single word as if you are complete strangers-no, worse, at least if you make eye contact with some strangers they will smile at you. We don't even do that. Why is that so? It doesn't even have to be that there was a falling out, I suppose we just grew apart, maybe we had our differences. Who knows...I don't. It just seemed to happen, and that's so sad. I have just been mulling over this all day! Thinking about good and bad memories, wondering how this person is doing, are they achieving life goals? Are they happy? What would I say to them if I had the chance to sit and have tea/coffee with them? Would I be different in their eyes? Will they be different to me? Maybe. I'm sure I am not the only person who goes through these little funks. Well anyways, I just thought I would write a little bit about what was on my mind at the moment. I know it was very, very vague. Your probably thinking WHO IS SHE TALKING ABOUT?!? Possibly not, I know I would be curious if I were you:)

Cheers!

Bree
