Famous Last Words: So close, yet so far away

-
This week I did not do any writing because it was review week but I really enjoy some of my classmates previous week’s writing. My other classes are a lot right now. I also feel behind because I had family obligations all weekend and so I got no break from running and homework was all rushed and done in the middle of the night. This week I have 2 tests, a presentation, and 2 papers so I am really looking forward to spring break. This year for Spring Break, my family is going to Colorado for a few days and I am so excited.


I have never been to Colorado and so it is all that much more exciting. I think we are going to go snowmobiling and then just hang around town. We really want to go skiing/snowboarding sometime, but since we are only staying for 4 days, we do not have enough time. I think it will be fun to just be there, though looking at the mountains and seeing a new place. We are leaving on Wednesday of next week though, which is nice because it gives me a little bit of time to do work before we leave. I am worried about getting back late Sunday to Tulsa, and then making it back and getting settled for classes again because it is a 12 hour drive to where we are going, and then I am going to have to drive another 2 hours to Norman and my apartment. Also, this is the longest I have ever left my dog, and she is like my child so I am a little cautious about that. Anyway, it is something to look forward to as I embark on this week which is bound to be a lot of work and a lot of stress.

Introduction to an indecisive girl

(Arlo rocking a bun, personal photo) Hello! My name is Kennedie Milligan and I am a senior at the University of Oklahoma. I am a Communication major and a Women and Gender Studies minor. I am also pre-nursing. These three things may seem like a random grouping, but I have a lot of interests and am slightly indecisive, so this is what I have come up with. I was born in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, but I went from 3 rd grade to high school in Broken Arrow and that is where my parents still live today. I have 3 brothers, and from my older brother I have 3 nieces. My entire family is pretty much in Oklahoma and has been my entire life. There is not a lot I am sure of in life, but I am sure that I need out of this state. I am graduating (hopefully) in December and then I am (even more hopefully) going to nursing school. I want to go to a accelerated program for my BSN out of state because I am afraid if I don’t leave now then I will never get out. I just decided to do nursing last Au

Week 13 Story: The Princes' Tree

Once upon a time, there was a legend of a great tree in the middle of the forest. Only those with a true heart could find it. The tree was the biggest and oldest tree in all the land. The tree was said to have magical powers, which controlled the weather. In this land, there was also a palace where 4 young princes lived. They had heard of the tree and wanted to find out for themselves what magic the tree held. When the oldest prince was 12, he was allowed to go on his journey to search for the tree. He left for a week and when he returned he told stories of the great tree but was afraid that it was dead because it had no leaves. The second to oldest prince knew this could not be true because the great tree had been alive forever so when he turned 12 the next year, he too was permitted to go find the tree. It took him almost a week to find it as well, but he returned with stories of its greatness and beauty. The tree he saw had blooming flowers all over it. Now the younger two prince
