Hi...

It's been a while.
Like a long while.
I haven't forgotten my blog.
I just haven't had anything to really say.
Since the last time we talked a lot has been happening.
2 football games.

1 test.
Endless nights of fun.
Sunburns from hell.
Studying.
Class.
New Friends.
I went home for labor day.
Ry-Ry turned 15.
Parents have separably visited twice.

And that's really about it.
It sounds like nothing but has been so much.
Follow me on the twitter, @MeghanDennis for day by day updates on your's truly.
For now, it has been a very long day, so I am going to bed.

Goodnight dears.


Talk to you soon,
Meghan

New little nest to call home.

Hello Dolls!
Sorry its been a while.
I decided that sorority life was not right for me and went home for a few days.
I came back Saturday and my best friend Shelby came down from UAB and spend the day with me.
Last night we had Fun at the Rec and I played lazer tag for like 5 hours.
It was great.
And today I went and found all my classes and get to tackle my lovely laundry this evening!
Tomorrow I'm volunteering with the Ripple Effect doing Tornado Relief. Its been a year and there is still so much of Tuscaloosa that is still hurting. 

Sadly, I still don't have pictures of my dorm room.
I'll get them up soon.

Love y'all!

Update

Hi my loves!
Sorry I haven't posted.
I am now in my dorm room and on day 4 of rush!
I wish I had pictures to post but I have yet to get around to that.
Going from 7AM-7PM has been some very long days.
I even have nice shoulder burns today.
Thanks to a computer glitch, we've gotten moved from starting at 9 to starting at 10:30.
We made our first cuts last night so hopefully I'll get asked back to my favorites!

I'll try to keep y'all updated.
Love you all!

Mousercise

So if anyone attended Nelson Elem from 1990-2004, (and probably for many years before and after)

And if you did, you'd remember how we'd always Mickey's Mousercise.

Enjoy.

So here I am posting about how much I love the Olympics and then I didn't even post about the Fab Five?

But in reality, I've been tweeting about it so it still counts.

Not Where I Grew Up

"We all want to grow up. We're desperate to get there. Grab all the opportunities we can to live. We're so busy trying to get out of that mess, we don't think about the fact that it's going to be cold out there. Really freaking cold. Because growing up sometimes means leaving people behind. And by the time we stand on our own two feet, we're standing there alone." - Meredith Grey

I closed one chapter of my life a little over a month ago and am set to begin a new one in just a matter of weeks.
As I sit in this limbo of sorts, I keep hearing about how I've grown up so quick.
But what does growing up mean?
The dictionary defines growing up as "to increase in size by a natural process" or "to develop and reach maturity."
By this I am far from "grown up" as mature is one of the farthest things I'd say I am..
So what does growing up really mean?
Most see it as the act of getting older.
But is this the case?
Does turning 16 make you able to handle a car?
No. But your first wreck or first ticket makes you realize how irresponsible you really are.
Does graduating from school mean you're ready for the real world?
Not one bit.
Does turning 18 make you a real adult?
Sure, on paper.
But in reality, you're still the same naive kid you were just the day before.

So, I'd say that age is the last thing that truly defines growing up but maybe the actions that happen along the way make us realize how far we've come and how far we have to go.

Chew on that.

Taking the Tumble

TTYS is simple the Life of Meghan.
What's going on in my little bubble.
But I've gotten to where I don't update like I should.
So in light of that, I am providing you with links for all of you who just desire constant updates about me. (I mean I know all of you do.)


Tumblr is my newest one. Yes it's a blog, but nothing like this. 
Think preppy and southern pictures meets lots of sarcasm.

Updates

Hola Dolls,
Hope life's treating you grand and you're avoiding this hot, hot, hot summer heat.
So once upon a time, I use to post every single day or at least 5 days a week.
Sadly, that is no longer the case.
And I know that it should be.
But honestly, I just don't have anything to post about so I don't feel the need to give y'all all my random nothings that y'all don't care about one bit.
But since this is about updates,
My Daddy recently had his gallbladder out, I'm beach bound in a week and I move in Almost exactly 39 Days.

And honestly,
That's about it.
So til next time,
stay cool, stay fabulous and I'll

It's Weird Because Everything's About to Change

Hello Loves,

Hope you're week is going well.

Last night, I headed to Mrs. Cooper's house for a get-to-gather with my FBLA Family.




I loved getting to see everyone. Out of the 10 of us there, 6 are going to Northeast, 1 can't decide between Snead and Northeast, 1's still in high school, Joseph is off to JSU and I'm off to UA in just a little over a month.
It seems like we just graduated yesterday.

"Everything's about to change now isn't it?"

I'm going to miss my friends, but I am so ready to see what's on this new horizon.

Ticker

Hello Loves,
So in light of my recent post on motivation and weight loss I have to add a ticker on my blog.
This ticker tracks my weight loss so maybe if I know all of y'all can see what I'm doing, I'll hold myself responsible.


Also I want to thank everyone who has been visiting my blog recently yesterday alone i had 76 page views and 46 today!
This is really big deal for me!
And I know it all is due to my Dance in the Rain post but still...
made my night.
Also big shout out to my new follower, mbpurpura!

Hope y'all are enjoying this wonderful day!
I'm off to clean my room.
Wish me luck.

Dance in the Rain

Life's is about choices.
Will you choice to hunker down in the dugout?
Or dance in the rain?

Motivation


This is different from my normal rambling but I feel like maybe it's something I need to do.
Actually strike the maybe.
I'm not happy with my body right now. 
I'm not saying I'm overly fat but I'm not happy with how I look.


I while back I started working out.
Like 6 days a week and I had lost almost 20 pounds.
But that's almost a year ago and I've gained half of that back.
Recently, I tried again, I started walking and while I wasn't losing the weight I was feeling better.
Then came the end of the school year.
With finals and graduation and everything else, I quit walking.
And I've been on summer break for almost a month and still haven't done anything about it.
And it's time to change that.
I'm not sure what I'll do about it but it's time for a change. 
For now I'm just watching what I eat and how much.
My 18th birthday is in less then a week. 
I know I wont be happy with my body by then so my  goal is in a year from now to be happy with how I look.

It's not going to be easy but I'm done saying oh I'll do it tomorrow and tomorrow never gets here.
Today is my day for change.

I'd love if y'all joined me.

Bama Bound

Hi Loves!
So it's been a little while. Hope y'all are doing fabulous.
Me?
I'm peachy keen, jelly bean.
Last week I went to Tuscaloosa for Bama Bound.
It was a very long 2 days.
The first day were spent in and out of different activities which included getting my ACT card and taking pictures with Big Al.

And then that night, REXPO at the Rec where I rock climbed and then played Battleship.
Don't know what battleship is?
Watch this.
It wasn't near as intense as the video shows but it was so much fun.
and I also got to see where my dorm room will be next year!!

Friday was a lot more important as that was the day we registered for classes.
I got exactly what I wanted.

I'm a happy little princess 
I had a great time.

Also, just in case you were wondering, I turn 18 in 10 Days!
You know if you wanted to get me a present.

When life gets interesting, I'll let you know.

So Call Me Maybe?

Yes, I'm referring to Carly Rae Jepsen.
And yes, this might just be the most annoying song ever.
And I hated it.
Until I saw this.

Seriously, I'm in love.
These boys are great.
And Baseball is great.
SEC Tournament ends this tomorrow with Mississippi State v.s. Vanderbilt.
Since I have friends heading to dear ol' State this up coming year, I'll be saying "Go Bulldogs" just this once.
But you know. Roll Tide.



Yeah, I'm shallow.
