A very big controversy in America today is whether or not Marajuana should be legal.
Well here is my theory...
First off, I feel that if it was legalized then crime rates would possibly go down. No more killings, nor more sneaking around, and no more thefts.
Second, the government could tax marajuana like crazy and even make a tax for people to grow it in their own homes. I mean they give it to people in hospitals with sicknesses anyways right?
Third, what does it hurt? Have you ever heard of anyone getting hurt from smoking weed? I don't think I have, maybe if they mix it with other drugs but you don't see alot of that either. Being in college I have been exposed to a bunch of different things and I do believe I have never seen anyone hurt by marajuana. Yet again it is obviously not painful if they are prescribing it in hospitals.
So what do you think about this? What experiences have you seen with marajuana?

Day 15: It's Movie Time
One of my favorite things to do is sit back, relax and watch a movie. I love snuggling under a blanket on my couch so I can enjoy some quality film.
I also love going to the movies because I love seeing them on the big screen.
I have seen my fair share of movies in the past couple of years, and by far my favorite has been the Hangover. Everyone seems to love that movie. People are always quoting funny lines from it and acting out what happens.
I am also very fond of Broadway Musicals and I love when they turn them into movies because I like to see what movie stars they put in certain parts.
Right now I have also gotten into the Twilight series (I know I always told myself I would never do it. Well I fell in). I really enjoy it because I can't wait to see how the whole book is portrayed in the movies.
So what is your favorite movie??
Peace

Day 14: Hobbies
You know how everyone has there own hobby that they tend to latch on to for their whole life?
Well mine happens to be scrapbooking. I seem to be a little obsessed. If you walked into my dorm room right now you would totally understand. I am a very crafty person so when the oppurtunity presents itself I use my creative mind to do almost anything.
My mom kind of got me started with this hobby considering she has been scrapbooking since was about 6 or 7 years old. She still does it today. While I was still in high school I worked at a scrapbook store and so she did, she kind of go tme the job.
My first album I really ever made was my senior year album (it's bad because it is still not done :/ ) but I love it because now I have those memories kept away creatively :].
One of the reasons why I love it scrapbooking so much is because of all the different products. The paper, embellishments, the tools, there is almost everything you can imagine and more. There are many BIG companies that come out with some great stuff. Gorgeous colors and designs that seem to catch the eye of everyone.
My favorite companies are Sassafras Lass and Studio Calico. (only scrapbookers would really know what that means).
So what is your hobby and your favorite things about them?

Day 12: Winter Olympics 2010
Everyone seems to be getting hyped up about this years winter Olympics. I don't ever remember everyone being so excited in the past, maybe I wasn't paying really good attention.
This year a lot of people seem to be really into the curling. Ha ha I think it is just like shuffleboard on ice! A lot of people don't understand what they are doing but I'm pretty sure that's it.
My favorite to watch is the skiing, mainly because they sometimes wipe out right in the beginning, but other wise it is really intense.
I also love hockey, but I haven't been able to watch it because it always seems to be on really late. I do know that the U.S. mens team is doing really well though.
So what has been your favorite winter Olympic sport this year?
Peace

Day 11: Dream Schools
People always ask me " you are from Florida, why are you all the way out in Arizona?" Well I should say because this is where I want to pursue my dream.
Every since my Junior year of high school I wanted to be a Journalist. I had a teacher that really inspired me to pursue that goal. She would tell me all about the different types of Journalism that I didn't even know were Journalism. At first I really wanted to be a Photojournalist, than later on I realized I wanted to be a broadcastor specifically in sports. I love sports and just to be on the TV reporting about it would be amazing.
My teacher had told me of some of the best schools in the country for Journalism. Those included: Indiana University, Mizzou, and Arizona State.
I looked into all three and realized that ASU would be the best for me.
My father grew up right around the corner from ASU and alot of my family lives close by. I felt like I was more familiar with the area then I would have been with Mizzou or IU.
Their school is called the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism. I just started there this semester and I love it. People have told me how lucky I am to be in that school and I do feel like I am very fortunate.
In the furute I might think about going to IU or Mizzou for Grad school. So I definately plan on going far with my education.
I feel so blessed to be where I am today. I thank my parents and my educators for pushing me to become what I want to be in life. I am so proud of myself to be able to pursue the goals I want to pursue.
So I got to my dream school.
What is your dream school and why do you want to go there?

Day 10: Homelessness in America
Today I was watching a video for sociology about homeless teens. It seems to be a really big issue in our time today. I didn't know there about 2 million homeless people in America. I feel like there isn't alot being done for these people.
They are provided homeless shelters sometimes, but most of them are gender-specific or age specific so then they are split up from their families. Of course living on the streets is no bundle of joy for teens either. They go through numerous amounts of emotional sufferage along with other pain.
In the video various homeless teens talked about how people look down on them because they are homeless. They gave responses like "not every homeless person does drugs" or "because I have no money people don't want to hang out with me anymore." I don't understand what would be wrong. These people need help from our world today, and I don't think there is enough of it out there.
The reason why these teens become homeless is because they are either escaping poverty or abuse, emotional neglect, or may be to old for foster care. By the time you are 18 you are considered to old for foster care. I know plenty of people who just turn 18 the beginning of their senior year in high school. I feel that that rule should be lengthened to the age of 19, or possibly till they graduate from high school giving them a chance to get an education in college.
I truely believe their should be more done on this issue. What do you think might be a great way to help these people?

Day 9: Let's Go Back
Let's take it back a little bit,
If you are a 90's kid you will have an understanding for this reminiscing I'm about to do.
Remember those shows we always used to watch, and it wasn't the typical "saturday morning" because who would want to get up for that. It was those days where we said we were sick and couldn't go to school and we would just lay around on the couch eating DUNKAROOS! and watching Rugrats or Rocko's Modern Life.
The other day my friends and I took a night to go back in time and talk about all the things we miss. For instance, we had an arguement about whether or not their used to be a "red plastic stick" that would spread the sauce on a pizza lunchable while I was devouring a pizza lunchable at the time. We found out that they did used to have them and they discontinued them after finding out that everyone really just threw them away. After the arguement we kind of talked about other foods we missed and what came first, like Fruit Roll Ups or Fruit By the Foot. Also what the difference was.
I always think about how life would be different growing up in this new generation, the millenium, just like my brother is. I feel that we grew up totally naive to certain things and now kids these days know a little too much...way more than I ever knew at that age.
All that aside I miss the old days. I miss playing Skip It in my front yard. I miss eating Rice Crispies and Bananas almost every morning, with extra sugar on top. Also always wondering what was in a Wonderball and drinking Yoohoo. I loved playing with my Furbee that now would freak me out probably. I always made sure I took care of my Giga Pet and remembered NOT to bring my Pokemon Cards to school because they wouldn't get confiscated. I loved growing up in the generation I did. It was so much fun.
So now it's your turn:
What was your favorite thing when you were growing up?
and you don't have to be from the 90's to answer this question :]

Day:7 Discrimination, Racist and Prejudice
The subject in sociology this week is discrimination and social inequality.
I feel now a days this isn't such a strong subject like it used to be back in the 50's and 60's, but I will say that we still have our problems.
In sociology we have to post a question and answer about the material we are studying.
I really wanted to talk about racism because I think it is a huge social issue in our society.
Back in 8th grade my US history teacher said to me "I think everyone is racist in their own mind". He didn't mean it in a bad way, he was just saying that everyone judges people, and I completely agree. In the material we are studying they talked about stereotypes and how they can easily hurt someone.
When I was going into high school we had an assignment in my Personal Health class about stereotypes. This was a summer class so different kids from different highschools were in it. I had gone to a "gifted" school for my first year of high school. It was amazing what people thought of the people that went to that school. We were called "goody too shoes" or "teachers pet" and "book worms", when we were nothing like that. Of course you then looked at the other high schools in the county and you had "potheads", "jocks", and the "popular" crowd.
I ended up in one of the other high schools from 10th to 12th grade. I loved it there.
We had a unity day, which is where we took a day from school and a bunch of kids were picked of all races and all ages, and put in a room. We talked about issues and what bothers us about what people say sometimes. It was amazing how close I felt with those people after one day.
I am not the racist type, never have and never will. I just wish people would get over the facts of life sometimes. We are all different in a unique way. Whether our eyes are a different color or our skin is a different color we are all different.
So today:
What have been your experiences with racism and discrimination? What have been some stereotypes you have been associated with? What do you think can help everyone in this nation to come together as one instead of always turning a shoulder on someone of color, race, or ethnicity?
Peace

Day 6: Money Money Money MONEYYYY!
ok the title is a bit of a joke, have you ever watched Apprentice? Well that's the lyrics to the song on all of the season finale's when the person wins. Love it.
Well we all know that this economy is in a bit of a crisis. People losing jobs and homes. Wealthy people are starting to lose money to . There really needs to be soemthing done.
Right now my family is hurting big time and it is so hard with them having a child in college.
Luckily the government still gives out grants and loans so that I can get my education right away. I have started filling out my FAFSA and trying to find scholarships to put me through the next 3 in a half years to graduate on time. It is hard because now with this recession there is so much competition among students and "giving away money" isn't that easy anymore.
I've been trying to find others way to help me get through this rough time. Finding a job is probably the hardest thing to do especially in a college town. All of my friends don't even have jobs and that is enough competition right there.
Also finding the TIME to actually have a job that wants you. Being a full time student is a job in itself, along with being involved with school you have so much on your plate.
Don't forget spending money for food, clothes, and the occasional night out.
It's really rough out there....
So today's question:
What are some idea's for making money for college? What have you come up with in the past to start saving for college? Also, share some thoughts and ideas on what you might be going through and how many sacrafices you have had to make since this economic down grade.
Peacee

Day 5: Summer Jobs
Today I received an e-mail from a summer camp letting me know I have an interview with them for a counseling job this summer. I am so excited because as a child I have always wanted to go away to camp and never got the chance, but now I have the chance to be a councelor at one!!
This job will give me the oppurtunity to share my interests and life with various young age groups. I love kids and so I feel like I will really enjoy myself with this job.
I will not be able to see my family until July if I get this job, but that is o.k. because I think they understand that this is a huge oppurtunity and it is totally worth it.
In the past I have had a summer camp job. It wasn't a sleep away camp but I ran a scrapbook camp two different weeks in the summer. I loved it because I got to be creative with my own mind and then help young girls be creative with theirs.
So today's question:
What is your ideal summer job? What summer jobs have you had in the past and what has been your best experience with it?
Peacee

Day 3: Picking Up A Special Someone
Today one of my best friends girlfriend comes in to visit the beautiful valley.
My whole floor has been excited this past week to meet her, we all feel like we are meeting someone famous!
Right now we are sitting at the airport awaiting her arrival into Sky Harbor International. My friend is ecstatic and she is glowing with excitement!!
I'm so happy for her, for her this is a little late V-day present :]
All morning we have been talking about how exciting it is to go to the airport either if you are going somewhere or picking someone up.
It is so funny because we always make a little day trip by going to airport. We hop on the lightrail and plan lunch at the airport while we wait to pick our friends up. I feel like I have been to Sky Harbor Airport more in college then I have been to my home airport in my entire life!!
One of my favorite airport experiences was when I went to California. That was a once in a lifetime event. It was my whole family including my friend Halee and my sister's friend Haleigh. Well, we flew out of Tampa and on our way one of the generators went out while in the air. We have to emergency land in New Orleans and had to wait about 2-3 hours for the next flight to LAX. It didn't help that Halee and I had been up all night in excitement and were exhausted the whole way there. So we finally get on a plane to LAX and we had missed out connecting flight from L.A. to San Diego. We had to get an airport shuttle all the way to San Diego. It was right during rush hour too. So it took us about 4-5 hours to get down to San Diego. Oh and on top of that, we couldn't find our luggage. The luggage ended up being at the San Diego airport waiting for us to pick up haha. After all that we still had a blast on the trip!!
So today's question:
What is your best/worst airport experience? You can talk about picking someone up or about a flight you had!!
Peacee

Day 2: Happy Valentines Day
I'm glad and upset at the same time that it is Valentines Day.
I'm in a relationship, but my boyfriend lives in MO. It is kinda dissapointing :/
BUT all my friends (single and ones in long distance relationships) have decided to go to Hooters for dinner tonight, so that will make up for all of this.
I have been noticing on my facebook that EVERYONE seems to think V-day is overrated.
Personally I think it has been very corny to some extent. It should just be a day spend with the one you love or even a best friend. A Valentine can really be anyone, just ask a friend (or even a foe and make a truce :] )
So today's question is:
What is your opinion on V-day? Should people really shun it out if they don't have someone for it?
Also, add in what you are doing for Valentines day....Maybe some of us will get some ideas for next year!!
Peaceee

Also, add in what you are doing for Valentines day....Maybe some of us will get some ideas for next year!!
Peaceee

Day 1: The Beginning
So i finally got the inspirations to start a Blog, well here I am. I'm not necessarily a "blogger" but I am an avid Facebooker so I think I will be ok at this.
My name is Chelsea Bolyard and I am a student at Arizona State University. I am majoring in Broadcast Journalism. I am 19 years old and enjoy sports and music. I am originally from Florida and came to ASU just because of their journalism school. I also work for the ASU wrestling team as a student manager. I am a freshman here and I have been loving every minute of it.
Recently I watched a video for one of my classes that was about my generations and their views on our society. It really got me interested in what my peers think and so that is what this is all about.
Over the course of the next year I plan to post once a day on various subjects that inspire my gernation today. Social views, favorite things in life, and a typical day of a college student are all subjects that will be discussed and more. This blog will be totally interactional so everyone feel free to comment, ask questions, and post insight on what you think.
I know I said this was geared towards my generation, but older generations don't hesitate to say what you feel. We do like to know what you are thinking too (whether we say we do or not).
Hopefully everyone will do a daily check up :]
So, today my first topic will be....Blogs haha
Go ahead and leave tips and insight on a blog you may have and what motivates you to keep it going. This can be about a blog like this one, a facebook, or even a personal written journal (you know that ones people used to have when there were no computers ;] )
Thanks guys!!!
