Grad School Mania...I want to go to UF!!!

Hi loves!!!

I know it has been a week since I last blogged but so much has been going on this week from me finding a part time job to my mom being very sick oh and then I got sick lol. But guess what! Im back and all is well. So today I decided to blog about something that has been heavy on my mind...GRAD SCHOOL! I have been looking at plenty of different schools including Florida State University, University of Florida, Michigan State University, and San Diego State University and so far my favorite is of course the University of Florida. This has been my dream school for quite some time and I would LOVE to be a gator! Not to mention they have a state of the art and nationally ranked Masters program in Mass Communications and everyone that knows me knows I am a nerd for Mass Media! Now I know some of you are probably wondering, well why wouldnt you go to the same school you went to for undergrad for your masters. Um HECK NOOOO, i meant no thank you lol....with my growth as a person I think it is time for bigger and better things and I truly feel like the University of Florida has my best interests at heart when it comes to that much. I have looked over their program and I am thoroughly impressed, thoroughly! It has been said recently, grad school doesnt give you much more of a positive chance for promotions in jobs and it doesnt necessarily give you that much of an upper hand in getting a job in the first place. I just think it would be a great opportunity and I am a big stickler for learning all you can in life, and I dont believe for one moment that I learned all I could from my previous school, I probably didnt even learn half of what I should have. I think UF would really get me on the right track as far as with Mass Communications in order for me to get into the great career I am so ambitious for. My only and I do mean only concern is how in the world to pay for a masters degree?? I am already in (unnecessary debt) from my previous school which I still am not happy with (but its life), but I really would love to go back to school and I really would like to go back in the fall. So my question to everyone who reads this, is it possible for me to go back to school, preferably the University of Florida, to obtain my masters for a minimal cost?? My quote for you today is dont ever let anyone tell you something is not for you, because if God has it for you and you are aligned with Him and His word anything is possible. Talk with you later my loves!!! BE AMBITIOUS in all things:-)

Kobe's loss...Vanessa's gain??

So im sure everyone now knows that NBA star Kobe Bryant's wife Vanessa has said she has had enough. After filing for divorce it is reported she will get 75 million as well as 3 mansion totaling her divorce settlement to about 150 million dollars. Now why am I writing about  this?? I so happened to be reading plenty of different men's or maybe I should say boy's points of view on this situation on facebook and the most frustrating thing is instead of trying to be empathetic with Vanessa and trying to see things from her point of view, they are quick to yell "he should have gotten a pre-nup," or better yet "dudes better learn from kobes mistake!" Ok so kobe didnt cheat on his wife??? Uh yes he did...AGAIN! Now I love to watch Kobe play and yes he is the BEST player in the league! Yes I did say that but no this does not give him a pass to do whatever he wants to do. By no means...I think instead of telling others to get a prenup guys should become much more conscious of the things they do and how they not only affect themselves but the people around them also! Now of course there are those guys who feel like Vanessa could have cheated also (and she might have, can you blame her??) but as far as I have read this woman has been there with Kobe by his side even though the bad situation with the rape back in 2003 and yet Kobe has the nerve to keep cheating and guys actually want to say he should have gotten a prenup?? Are you kidding me! He should have kept it in his pants!! It has always been said that Kobe is striving to be more and more like Jordan, well it seems that you succeeded with this one Kobe. I  truly think its a shame that men are not thankful, faithful, and humble about being married when they become famous especially if she has stood by them through thick and thin. Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade is the same way, oh not to mention he has the nerve to be flaunting Gabrielle Union as if that is going to last. Lol. Get a clue guys these women only and I mean only want your money!!! And everything that is done in the dark WILL come to light. That is what I will leave you with today as a quote/ bit of advice...ponder on that. Let me hear your thoughts!

Brita's First Blog!

Hi world!

I probably should have started this right after I walked across the stage or even before, but I am a firm believer of the saying its never too late in life to try something new! Well I am finally a college graduate and honestly I cant say im completely enjoying it. I was so ready to get my diploma and now all I can say is NOW WHAT! lol. I have been enjoying my time with my mother who is asleep right now on the kitchen table lol but I must say post college life is quite BORING...I have been told numerous amounts of time to stay patient and things will work out but for those who may not know me very well, I am far from patient. This is just my opening blog and trust me there will be alot more where this came from! In my next blog I go over everything about me including where I am from, where I went to school, and oh if I am in any type of relationship! lol, until next time stay blessed:-)
