You got a friend in me

When you hear the words "You got a friend in me", what do you think of? Well if you know anything about movies your first thought would be Toy Story! If you don't like Toy Story then your probably going to need to go to your local physician and get yourself checked out because something is seriously wrong with you. The Toy Story series is thought to be the greatest animated movies of all time and I agree after being reminded of how awesome they are when I saw the third movie of the series that was just recently released in theaters, not to mention it was in 3D. The series ended with Andy going to college and him having to decide what to do with his toys that brought him and his imagination excitement during his childhood. After the toys are accidentally donated to a daycare center ran by an evil bear that runs the daycare like a prison, Woody saves the toys because of his loyalty to them and to Andy as well. The movie brings something for people of all ages to learn which is a major reason for the phenomena of people that follow it religiously. If you are a Toy Story fan, I would highly suggest popping in the first two movies and see if it brings back memories, if so go and see the third one and complete the one of the greatest trilogies of all times. It will make you laugh and may make you cry but it will remind you of what true friendship means and what the meaning of loyalty is to a tee.

On another note, like Andy, I will be going off to Manhattan (aka Manhappenin) this August for college. Last week my parents and I went to orientation at K-state. It was ran by mostly students who were Juniors and Seniors currently at K-state and they gave us a brief preview of what we needed to know about the college before we got there in August. We learned the Wabbash cannonball, the fight song, and the ins and outs of many things located around campus. So for me it was pretty boring as I've been raised a Wildcat from the womb and knew most of these things already. After all of the student-led activities, we met back up with our parents and headed off to lunch then to do the most important thing we came to do, enroll in my classes. I was actually really happy with the schedule I got, mostly because I have one class period before 11:30 a.m. all week which will work perfect for my ideal sleeping schedule of going to bed around midnight and waking up around 10:30 or 11. I'm taking 15 hours which includes an online money management class, psychology, college algebra, U.S. history, intro to leadership, and pre-major orientation. I find out my roommate the first week of July and move into the dorms August 21! So as excited as I was after enrollment, I'm sure it will continue to build as it gets closer and closer to going up there. Other than that, I'm looking foward to seeing friends and family at my big bro's wedding this coming weekend and hope to see you all there.
