Lady Gaga and the Haus


A question I get all the time is about why I like Lady Gaga so much.

The simple answer is because I see her for who she is and not what the media displays her as. There is more to her then the outfits she wears.

The genuinely cares about the fans that follow her.
She is an inspiration and motivates myself (and millions of others) to change the world for the good.

She's also so talented.
She really can sing.
She really can dance.
Whatever she does on stage is actually her and not an illusion like some artists.



The last few days I have gotten this question a lot (which isn't a bad question as it makes me excited to talk about it), and it is about how her concert is.

Q: How was the artRAVE
A: It was absolutely perfect.



Her concert at the Pepsi Center was absolutely amazing. I have anticipated seeing her in concert since I was in eighth grade, and now my sophomore in college self finally got the chance to.

She is so exciting.
She is so uplifting

Never have I cried as much as I did that night, and they were extremely happy tears in case you were wondering.

I cried when she first came on stage because I could not believe what I was seeing.
I cried when she talked about teenage suicide and depression because I was a victim of it in high school, and she was the one who saved me.

I am still amazed at how close she got to me I mean look

I absolutely cannot wait until she comes back to Denver because I will be seeing her in concert again. Hopefully this next time I will meet her because that is my life goal.

Sophomore Year of College


Everything is set up.

All that I need to do is move back up there.

August 17th is the date that I say goodbye to Summer.

I'm disappointed to leave my family and friends again (and my dog Wrigley), but I'm so excited because I'm only a year away from meeting another point on my path of life.

At first all I think about is excitement. I get to see all the friends that I have not seen for the last few months. I also get to work more towards my fitness goals. Here I don't have gym access but there it's gifted to the students with tuition.

There is nervousness. Of course I'm worried about the work load that I'm putting myself into. A biology, anthropology, psychology, and sociology class? To me that seems like a little too much.

BUT I'm not as nervous as I could be. I have faith in myself and know that the help is there if eventually I do need it.

I also do hope that with all the classes I'm taking something clicks and I decide on another major. I'm not making a deadline for December on having a major decided, but I'm hoping that by graduation there's something at mind.

Plus I get to take a break from the intense classes with my choir involvement. Without them I think I would possibly die this semester.
Rule #1 into surviving college at NJC - Take a class with Celeste Delgado-Pelton. Her sass and personality will make you feel like you belong somewhere.

I'm so excited to also begin to work for Jesse again. I don't even look at her as a boss. She is so caring and sweet, and I'm so blessed to have the opportunity to work for her.

Bittersweet feeling's come when I think of my RA position. It's not that I'm nervous but I'm scared that I'll not satisfy my residents in the ways that Olivia and so many others did last year. I; however, have so many ideas that will make the year fun and exciting for them.

I am just so excited for December when I can look back at the previous months and be happy with the results that follow. I sense so much success coming in my path, and I know I'm ready for it.
