Thank You For Smoking

After watching, "Thank You For Smoking" the title says it all. The main character, Nick Naylor, worked for the deadly but popular tobacco industry. He was a salesman for cigarettes. He was very loyal to his company and spoke highly of cigarettes. After all his job was to do whatever possible so the public would continue to buy tabacco products. Having such a job aloud him to be very persuasive. He ends up going infront of a board arguing that tabacco products do not need a label saying it is harmful. He ability to be persuasive won the argument and showed how being persuasive can work in your favor sometimes.

new moon


I would not consider myself a huge twilight fan because i haven't read or own any of the books, have a t-shirt or bag, and dont have any posters with there faces. although i do have the movie and have seen it several times, but NEW MOON was amazing. My boyfriend and I went to the movies the other day to see it. It was kind of awkard because JACOB is gorgeous, and my boyfriend knows when i laughed because he took he's shirt off it was a nervous laugh :) he didn't say anything though, just looked at me. The movie made me want to read the books, because the ending was not right. it ended with a question that im dying to find out the answer too!!!!! so if you haven't seen new moon go see it, even if you hate love movies this one has a lot of action!!1

tranferring!!!










Fall 2010 has always been my goal of when I will be transferring schools. However I have still not made up my mind as to what school I will be transferring to. My major is Veterinary Medicine, and HACC does not offer that so I change my major or transfer, and there is no way I will change my major I have wanted to be a Veterinary ever since I was 5. There's three schools that i have been looking at for awhile now, Wilson, University of Hawaii Manoa, and Michigan State Univeristy.

Wilson is an ALL GIRLS CAMPUS! I not really a girlie girl so being around nothing but girls would drive me crazy. However wilson is the number 1 school for VMT and they have a campus filled with animals so the hands on part is perfect. It is also in PA so I would not have to pay the out of state tutition, even though it does not make a difference because tutition is 28,000 a year anyways.

University of Hawaii Manoa is in Hawaii so the weather would be right up my alley! There VMT program focuses mainly on the equine (large animal) side, such as, farm animals. However thats where all the money is at. Dealing with household pets a VMT can make 40-57,000 a year. A VMT with equine is anywhere from 67-133,000 a year. So either way the money is good. I havent heard much about how good the UHM program is though. The tutition is 24,000 a year which includes non-residents and housing. My family have a beach house in Manoa though so i would be a resident and would not need housing so my tutition would be 12,000 a year.

Michigan State University is a nice campus. It has amazing sports teams and great teachers. I went last year to visit the school and fell in love with it. Except for the weather! I conplain about PA weather and Michigan is much worse!! The tutition is 35,000 a year. So it's kind of pricey but I have paid my way for everything so if that's where i go i'll pay my way there too.

I have until the end of this semester to choice a school but all 3 of them offer something different. So lately i've just been in and out of HACCs office trying to figure out which school they could transfer my credits too.

The Box

I just got back from the movies with my cousin. We went to see "The Box". So the movie was an hour an a half long and the dumbiest movie ever! Everyone in the movies looked bored and when the movie was over everyone was talking about how lame the movie was!! The movie had a lot of unanswered questions and a lack of excitement. It started off really slow and pretty much stayed that way the entire movie. So I sugguest no one waste their money.

date night

Everybody has a date night, especially if you have a girlfriend or boyfriend. My boyfriend and I usually hang out whenever we can but Fridays are our "date nights". We always go to a movie or rent a movie then go out to dinner. I look forward to those Friday nights because I get to buy a new outfit and get dressed up to look nice for him. He does the same too. It's kind of like our tradition. However we never stay in York through. There's nothing here really. We like to go to Harrisburg or Baltimore most of the time.

This past Friday I wanted to see the movie "Precious". Of course it wasn't playing in York so maybe next weekend we will go to Harrisburg and see if it's playing
