*It's been awhile*
Ok so I haven't really been keeping up with this site lately because I have been SO busy for the past month! I moved down to Orlando on May 23rd and I am LOVING it! It's different than what I'm used to, and its hot as hell, but I'm soaking it all in and enjoying every minute. I really miss all my friends at school though :(
So, on another note, more about me: I have 2 brothers (28 & 18) and 1 sister (33) who I am extremely close to. My oldest brother lives in Montana, my sister in New York and my little bro in Mississippi..and I'm currently in Florida so we're all spread out! My parents are my everthing, and I recently realized they get more hilarious the older they get. My mom seriously makes me laugh so hard sometimes that I almost pee in my pants, and the funniest part is that she doesn't even know she's doing it! I have been given everything my entire life and I don't know what I'm gonna do when I have to start doing things on my own - I know that sounds bad, but its the truth. I was pretty rebellious in high school, so of course I had some turbulent times with my parents back then. My mom and I used to clash heads all the time, but now that I've been away at school for two years we are closer than ever. I talk to my mom at least 4 or 5 times a day. My sister once said that if anything ever happened to my mom they would probably have to put me in a home because I would literally have a mental breakdown.
Throughout my life I've made alot of friends; some have stayed and will stay forever and some have gone, but my family has always been there and I am so grateful for that. Now that I'm getting older I am more picky about who I choose to be friends with and once I'm friends with someone, I commit to that friendship. I finally realized that my family will always have my back so I can afford to pick & choose my friends, and I shouldn't have to deal with assholes.
I'm at a really weird place in my life right now because I am a Junior in college and I still have no idea what I want to do with the rest of my life. Seriously, like no fucking clue. The next 6 months in Orlando are going to give me a nice break to try and figure things out. I'm at a point where I honestly don't even know what I am going to do tomorrow. That's one of the things I do love about my life though - the spontaneity! Going places at the drop of a hat, doing things I never dreamed I would do..that's what my life has been about so far and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Video coming in the next day or so. Sorry I'm busy!! :)
*My new friend ELBA*
NEW VIDEO COMING THIS WEEK!!!! :) sorry for no updates I have been moving into my new home in Orlando! YAY! 5 new roommates..here we go!
*Help!*
More about me:
I'm currently trying to figure out what I'm going to do with the rest of my life. I've only been in college for 2 years, but I am already sick of it. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the social aspects (partyin, friends, etc.), but I HATE the school part. I make decent grades, but I absolutely hate school work. I really get depressed when I have to go to class or do homework or take a test. I HATE IT. School has just never really been for me. That's another reason I'm so excited about my internship in Orlando - I desperately need the break from school. My parents are really pushing me to go to Law School when I graduate, but I just don't have the same passion for politics that I have for journalism. My dream is to become a respected journalist, but I'm between a rock & a hard place because I hate going to school. Ideally, I would just land a really good internship with my magazine of choice & work my way up & skip the whole "degree" part. I just really need a break to figure things out. That's another reason why I think I would be perfect for the Real World: I could live with six other people who have no idea where the hell their lives are going. I need that outlet, I need that energy & emotional release.
The concept of living with six complete strangers is so appealing to me right now. I would love to experience that even if it wasn't filmed..just to live with six people I could learn so much from would be an invaluable experience. I know I'm sheltered - I'll admit it. And I'm ready to learn about the rest of the world. I live in this perfect little Southern bubble and it drives me crazy because I know there is so much more out there! I want to eventually meet people & go places and not be in culture shock but feel at home.
Anyway, thats all for tonight, but another video coming this week - promise!
*Whirlwind*
Okay, so a little more about me..I have 3 siblings: an older sister, older brother and a younger brother. I am a HUGE family person and will always put my family above anyone else. My parents have always been so supportive of me, even when I do stupid things or make horrible choices. I loved acting when I was in high school; I did all the school plays, etc..I moved on from that now that I'm in college though. I still love acting, but now I'm more into other things. I am a serious Journalism major now with hopes of one day making a name for myself (I want to be the Editor of Cosmopolitan magazine - I say if you're going to do it, you might as well do it big). I have an internship this summer in Orlando, FL which I am very excited about! I have never lived ANYWHERE besides Alabama & Mississippi so I can't wait to experience something different.
I'm the kind of person who always has to surround herself with people. For the most part I hate being alone! I'm extremely talkative and am working REALLY hard on becoming a better listener. I'm very blunt and I tend to not sugarcoat things. Someone told me yesterday that they would describe me as "spunky"..haha whatever that means?
I've picked up some interesting habits in college, the most notable being my new fear of burglars!! My house got broken into over Christmas & I haven't fully recovered..all they stole was pictures of us! Creepy, I know. I'm pretty messy, but when it's time to clean I normally do it. I am extremely lazy (oops!) & maybe a little bit high maintenance..I'm working on it! My sister lives in New York & I absolutely LOVE going to visit her..its a bit of a culture shock when I go up there but I always have so much fun! It's a little offputting when every single person makes a comment about my accent, but I it's okay because I think they have one too! Eventually I would love to live in New York or Seattle..preferrably Seattle!! I've heard its such a fun city for people in their 20s right out of college.
I have an exam at 8am tomorrow & I have to study now (I probably won't go to sleep tonight) but yall keep looking for my updates!!
P.S.- I have alot of views of my video & not as many votes so yall feel free to vote for me too ;)
*Personality* (Best/Worst Traits)
My worst traits I think would be my tendency to cause confrontation and my inability to back down. I am extremely hard-headed, and when I have my mind set it is normally pretty hard to change it. I am also really loud which can be a bad thing. I am a HUGE procrastinator and tend to do things right before they need to be done. I work better that way. I can be bossy sometimes and always have to be the center of attention..I think those all count as my worst traits.
BEST TRAITS:
I make people laugh and I am always the life of the party. I like to make sure everyone is having a good time, that way I can have a good time. I always get my shit done, and I work well under pressure. I am EXTREMELY outgoing and I talk alot (I guess that can be good or bad)..I also care very deeply about my family and friends. I am very passionate about everything and I let my heart drive everything I do instead of my mind (which again is not always good). I have this great excitement for life and I really try to live each day as if I wouldn't get another chance. Carpe diem!!!
THIS CRAZY LIFE :)
Hey yall, I'm Rachel, 20 years old from Mississippi. I go to the University of Alabama where I am a rising Junior. I guess you could say I am a bit of a "wild child". I do what I want and say what I want..and sometimes that is a bad thing. I really don't have any sort of filter: whatever I am thinking, it comes straight out of my mouth haha. I am REALLY loud which some people find annoying but most people think its funny. I really can't help it! I come from a big, loud Italian family. My laugh is probably the most distinct thing about me - everyone says you can literally hear from 100 yards away. I will meet people for the first time & they will always remember me as "the funny girl with that crazy ass laugh." I have been told since I was in high school that I would be perfect for the Real World because I love to party and I love confrontation. If there is drama going on, I am usually in the middle of it whether I like it or not! But that is what keeps my life so fun..you never know what is going to happen when I'm around! I am very spontaneous and LOVE doing things spur of the moment..whether it be a crazy roadtrip or covering my friends VAN in shaving cream, pads & tomatoes (haha sorry Brannon!!). I have a real passion for life and really my only goal is just to live my life the best I'm able. I have a dream of one day being a successful Journalist (that is my major) and writing for a prestigous magazine like Cosmopolitan or Glamour. I absolutely LOVE making people laugh and telling stories (even when I'm the butt of the joke)..if it gets a good laugh, I'll do nearly anything.
ROLL TIDE!!!!!!
