My Favorite Food

When I was younger my favorite food was chicken. Everytime we went out to eat I got chicken. It didn't matter where we were, I always asked for the kids menu and ordered chicken strips. If they didn't have chicken strips I ordered the closest thing to it. My favorite food now is still chicken, even though that's all I ate my whole childhood. My tastes are mostly the same, the only thing that has changed is I do not think I could eat it quite as often as I used to. I still order chicken strips from time to time, but now I enjoy a variety of chicken meals, like chicken alfredo, bbq chicken sandwhich, chicken pizza, etc. Now that I am older, I do like mixing it up more often and getting something new to eat. I also tend to not order off the kids menu...as much. When I was younger my parents always told me I would hate chicken when I'm older, but I proved them wrong. I always tended to agree with them, but I guess my taste buds haven't changed at all. One reason I still enjoy chicken could be because the taste brings back memories of when I was younger. I'm not really sure, but all I know is you can't go wrong with chicken.

Opinion

I felt that my opinion really mattered in the past presidential election. It was my first time being able to vote so I was very excited to express my opinion. I was also in a Political Science class during the past election months, so the upcoming election was basically all we talked about. A majority of the students in the class didn't have the same beliefs as me and a few others, so it was kind of fun to get into heated debates and see everyones point of view. If only one person would have shared their thoughts that class would have been incredibly boring, so it was important I let my voice be heard, along with many other people in my class. Not only did the class really get me fired up to vote and express my opinion, but one of my good friends who is a Poli Sci major really got me ready for the election. It's all he would talk about. Sure, it got a little old from time to time, but he really kept me informed and updated.
I think that everyone should vote, everyone's opinion matters when it comes to running our country. If nobody voted and everyone thought their opinion didn't really matter, we would get no where. If your not going to vote, you don't have the right to complain about the way its being ran, our president, or other little things.

Almost There!!

This week is a very stressful one for me. Today our rough draft critique of The Zookeeper's Wife was due, and I have exam number two for chemistry at 4 o'clock. I've spent alot of time preparing for this test, but I still don't feel 100 percent ready for it!! It's so nerve racking..I would say I just want today to be over with, but to top it off tomorrow I have a huge biology test, and a pop music test. I've already studied both of those-somewhat, so hopefully that studying tonight and tomorrow will go over pretty easily. So, I can't wait for Thursday to be here and done with. Then, it's finally spring break! I figure I should just work as hard as possible these next few days, because then I will have a whole week off to rest my brain and have some fun. I still have to find out my work schedule, but if work permitts, my friend Holly and I are planning on spending a few days with our friend Jeff. He goes to school in Austin and has 4 other roommates, all of whom we are friends with. Sometime during those few days we are going to suprose our friend Kaity who goes to school at Winona. They are on there break now, so hopefully this all works out perfectly. She won't even see it coming, I really can't wait! I love suprises. I think they are one of the nicest things you can do to make someones day. Plus I will be with my best friend Holly the whole time, so I'm bound to have a crazy good time no matter what happens! But for now, my main goal is to just make it through these next couple days...
