Off to college I went

First day of College.  I remember it like it was a few days ago.  Me all bug eyed at the new surroundings of people and MTS mobility and Rogers Wireless at two opposite ends of the big campus hall trying to sell new students new phones for a new year.    
Okay so monday was my first day at College.  Yes, it is probably one of the best things that I have chosen to do with my life!  Because in two years I will be done this course and get a good job!  Thats usually how College goes:
Tasha's College Bucket List
- Go to college 
- Buy College stuff with their logos written all over it
- Get good grades (no sleeping in class anymore..)
- Graduate
- Get dream job or just get a job that fits within your high standards

 I know that it's only been three days but it's a great place.  My professors that I have met so far are pretty cool.  One class I get to work on my MacBook all class, another class I'm drawing and sketching the whole time.  Thats only two classes, but so far but they seem pretty chill!  Computers + sketching = a beautiful combo for Graphic Design people like me!

Okay so I know that I have been slowing down a lot on my blogging but I'm going to try and attempt to write a bit every second day or so.  I'm on my spare right now, but soon this spare will be 90% homework and the 10% I will try and blog!

I blame TV for my over reacting

Okay so you know how there is this ongoing dilemma where people are saying that TV and movies can screw with kid’s brains and same goes with that crazy action packed killer video games?  Well I don’t want to get into the kid side of it, but how I believe that TV and movies can effect older teens and adults, well mostly me! 

Well last night after a late dinner out in my gazebo at my cabin I decided to go inside to change into some cooler clothes.  It was 35 degrees with humidity, I felt like I was swimming through the air, not loving it.  So I was in my room which is placed at the back of our lovely barn red A-framed cabin.  My windows were open blinds up, dark out.  If it was a weekend I would have usually closed my blinds when changing, cause’ you never know when a drunk guy or gal may come wondering up the back path.  Not like it’s ever happened but who knows with people these days right?  Anyways, Here I am changing out of my clothes, shirt fully off and pants off.  Then I hear some rustling on the path, I didn’t pay much attention to it first until it got louder and closer.  I was thinking that it was my father trying to play a prank on me so I yelled out the window “Dad!?” no reply.  The rustling got louder and the footsteps were more distinct.  Ok so first things that were frantically flying in my head were “Shit, it might be a drunk rapist!  No!  What if it’s a serial killer on the loose!  Ok, I need pants!!  No!  Maybe a shirt, what would they want first? Crap, maybe I should close my blinds!” so I closed my blinds after tripping over my pile of clothes which I made within the few second of my genius planning.  After closing the blinds I booked it to slam off my light switch so no one could see into my room from the outside.  Few seconds after, I heard two people running up my cabins front stairs soon realising that this was most likely my parents, and then assuming the worst that they were running from whoever or whatever was in the bushes.  “Maybe they are being chased by whoever is outside our cabin!  Should I finish getting my pants on?  What do I do!”  They burst into the house and the motion censored security light at the back of the cabin turned on.  “Oh great, I was right!  Something or someone is really back there!  And we are in the middle of nowhere surrounded by trees which stop sound!”   I got my clothes on and ran out of my room running around the cabin locking all the doors. 

Okay so I will stop there because after all this I went on for a half hour thinking the worst.  My parents believe I freaked out like this was from watching too much CSI and NCIS and all those crazy crime movies and shows.  I sadly have to give in, and just believe that it was a bear.  Still scared of bears though...

Second chance? Trust?

When someone makes a mistake, they are usually forgiven and given a second chance.  But what do you do when you have forgiven someone too many times?  What do you do after the second chance is up?  Has the person worn off their second chance card because they already used it?  Is there certain things that can slide by with only a sorry? 
What if they have done something that is not reversable?  What do you do when you trusted a person that has done this to you?  What if they say sorry?  Sorry is the right thing to say right?  Do you take the apology?  Can you forgive after being hurt?  Can there be all these chances when it involves breaking trust?  I'd like to know.

Teenage Love?

Can someone tell me what has happened with the real meaning of Teenage Love?  What is this sort of love supposed to be like?  Is it still considered love if we keep telling 20 people we date that we love them?  Could it be the pressure of saying it at this age because we don’t exactly know what it is to be in love, but we want to try and feel it?  Is a relationship at age 16 or 17 to be treated seriously since we are on the brink of adulthood and that adult relationships should last?  I for one am not sure if I’m ready to grow up, especially in relationships. 
 I do feel pressured to keep a relationship because a big majority of my friends are in these relationships and have been in relationships for over two years.  I feel like when I’m with a guy I really like I am pressured in saying those four words “I love you...too”.  I can never say the I love you first because I believe it means a lot, and it’s almost like a commitment once I’ve said it.  I go by this quote by William Arthur Ward  “Love is more than a noun -- it is a verb; it is more than a feeling -- it is caring, sharing, helping, sacrificing”

 I don’t believe that I have been in love like the love where I have seen myself marrying the guy, but I have been in love in the way that they are my best friend, someone I can talk to till I fall asleep, watch hockey with, sing in the car at the top of our lungs to Keith Urban, and joke around with ending in laughter till we cry.  The love I have experienced so far is fun, and maybe this is what love is to me during this time in my life but I’m definitely not ready for the long love that seems to be the trend I am seeing.  I don’t want to fight with a person I care about and deal with those complications that seem too mature for me to handle.  I just want to be with someone that I can think of the “us” at now.  I don’t want to plan further up the road cause that can be a huge unsteady step for me to deal with.  I am not saying that Teenage love is a bad thing or that it’s crazy.  It’s just that I don’t know how it works and why it’s never worked out for me the way I’ve seen it work out for people around me.  Maybe it’s because I haven’t met that one perfect guy yet.  I know that if I was ready for true love, I would know.  I’m still growing inside, living at this moment in time and still learning to accept who I really am.  But in the mean time I will live in the moment and let fate do its work, and learn from my experiences.

What inspires me

Hi everyone!
Okay so I know I have pretty much already broken my hopes on staying in tune with blogging!  But, I’m going to make up for it.  In the past week I have been inspired.  Inspired to continue writing about my life on the internet.  I have a tendency of putting many hobbies aside and convincing myself that I will get back to these so called hobbies! 
(Okay so an easier way to put it... I get bored easily) 

My sister and my father have inspired me to keep blogging, not that they truly know that I am inspired by them, but they know now. 

My father and my sister have become successful in the blogging world quickly.  They both have a passion for writing, is what I have learnt.  Well let’s start with my father.

My father enjoys writing about his thought towards subjects that may come to his interest and that will inspire him deeply.  One of the big blogs he has written about was towards controversy.  He wrote about a boycott restaurant, which fired a girl for shaving her head to support her uncle and people with cancer.  I believe that it was a hard topic to put out on the internet because he had written the restaurant’s name in the title, and had said what his thoughts were.  But this was also a personal subject for him, because of my mother who is a breast cancer survivor two times.  My Dad has also written about “Being Present”.  He describes being in the ocean lying on his back with the waves drifting past him, learning what it’s like to be present.  A yoga magazine had read this and then published it in their magazine and posted it on their website.  I am proud that my Dad has gotten this opportunity, and that he enjoys writing.  Best thing is when he posts a new one he written it makes his day because it’s something he loves to do and he gets to share it with people.            

Now my big sister Elisabeth Bass who I say goes by “Glam Girl”.  She writes about her thought and feelings on fashion and the glamorous world of La Trend.  Elisabeth’s blogs are definitely worth the reading especially for people who are into the fashion world!  Fashion lovers would be very interested in what she has to say about the Couture and la Trend.  First I am going to truthfully say, I never knew that she could write like this!  But she has proven me wrong with her captivating writing skills and the love of her work which shines through.  When I read her first blog, within the first sentence I wanted to read more.  Once reading a few more sentences, I was hooked.  Not only that the first paragraph captures the reader’s attention wanting to read more about the truth on her love of fashion.  But I remembered one of the incidents that she wrote about.  It was because I was able to relate from knowing the incident.  This is what I would like to add into my writing, experiences that people can relate to.  So her writing has inspired me since I read her blog. 

I just want to talk to you guys about Elisabeth a bit more. 

I have always looked up to my sister since I was young.  When I was young during my car seat age, I would say: “Mommy, can you put on Cookie Monsters (aka. Elisabeth) music station?”  That’s a good memory.  My sister would also bring me to the mall with her and we’d go shopping.  I remember following her like a puppy!  She would pick an item of clothing from a rack, and I would too!  She would inspect it, I would too!  I was her mini partner in crime, her mini me!  The two Cookie Monsters! 

Now I have told you who inspires me to write, and who has inspired me in life!  I definitely will keep writing! 

Anyways, I think I have written enough for one blog, didn’t plan on boring anyone!  But if you have read this far, then thanks!

Welcome to my journey of my teenage life

Hello to all who's reading this right now, thanks for taking your time to see who this new blogger is.  Well I am not exactly new at this site but I have started this other blog before a long time ago but that one never really worked out for me so.. "click" I deleted it! .. Nah I didn't actually because I forgot that password within a week, so it is somewhere out there in cyber space.  But good news is I have decided to write another blog because my Dad has been a big blogger for a while, I’ll put a link for you if you would like to check his blogs out.  He’s a lawyer and a father of four children.  But You don't want to know about him because this is my channel!  ha! :P   Well my name is Tasha just for the basics.  I am currently trudging through my senior year of high school, training in acting for film, doing rehearsals for a musical production in a few months, being a female free style park snowboarder by spare time during my weekends, a girlfriend of Brett (aka my bestfriend and love), and best friend of many friends, and much more but I rather not bore you on my first blog. 

The blogs will just be about my life as a teenager.  I wanted to do this so I have something to go back to and see how i have changed and what my thoughts are at those times.  I'll try and write as much as I possible can with my crazy busy schedule!  I do have a goal on not giving up my blogs!  Anyways I have written enough for one blog my blogg buddies!  
Till Very soon!
