"Guys, I think we're acting like freshman"

College. Who knew this was going to be the best years of my life? Okay, I did. But I certainly wasn't expecting to fall this hard in love with college! The people...the diversity...the opportunities... & above all, the new babe pool! Yeah you heard me--new babe pool! Men. EVERYWHERE. Wanna know the best part about them? They have faces and bodies that resemble Grecian Gods. Yummy mummy. Speaking of mothers... I miss my Mommy. I really miss eating food.

So as for the post title and first week of college, boy do I have stories for you! To start off, I thought maybe I would tell a story that will give you a quick flash back of me if you can't remember who I am. So. I'm just chillin' in the bathroom {whatever. fairly normal} and I'm just setting up my cute bathroom accessories. Well, trash can placement was next on my bathroom to-do list! A simple and easy task right? Just place the dang trash can on the floor Ashlynn? Well no, I had to make things ten times more complicated and painful for myself by hitting my head on the corner of the metal shelf on my way down. Well, crap there came the tears. I don't think I've ever been in more pain. I thought for sure I had a concussion. Or maybe I was having a heart attack? It kinda felt like liver fail too... anyways. It sucked & I walked around with a goose egg and bruise on my forehead for the first week. Instead of signing up for social suicide with that ridiculous story, I told people that I survived a shark attack. You can find the footage on tonight's special of Shark Week on Discovery Channel at 7/9c. This is no lie.

Okay maybe I'll only tell one story and stick to some of my philosophical discoveries I've come to realize this last week. I discovered, for one, that you have thousands of choices to make in a day, and even one wrong choice will effect the remainder of the choices for the day. Example: You get that second bowl of ice-cream at lunch, you will throw up at your first college dance party? Hey it happened to me, it can happen to you! So lesson time I suppose!

Lesson #2: Eating that second bowl of ice-cream will always be worth the bodily function humiliation.

Lastly, I learned that where ever you go, you will find the coolest of people and the worst of people at the same time in the same time. You find the posers, the drunks, the pure, the shy, the obnoxious, the dedicated, the self-consumed, the beautiful, the strange, the weak, the strong and the ones who are still trying to find themselves in this crazy game of life. I'm willing to bet that where ever YOU go, you will find this same demographic and then some. Who ever you are and where ever you are going in life--decide now that you will be the one that decides to stand above the crowd of cliche'. Be better than your good, and stronger than your strongest. Limit nothing and reach for those famous stars. I hear they never let yea down.

Surround yourself with people that remind you of the goodness and sweetness of a mothers moist cho-co-choc-co chip cookie. Maybe even a glass of milk to accompany that good company?

Did I get deep? I sure did! Take it all in folks! Ashlynn is changing the world with her food analogies & no one can stop me!
