Well this week sucked a lot. On Thursday I found out the hard way that life’s not fair and even people you think you know can surprise you in a negative way. Over the course of 24 hours I got suspended from the Marching Virginians, stripped of my leadership position, forced to participate in an alcohol awareness seminar, and on top of that received a JR. Who would have guessed that I could make it through three years of college and then as I’m coming down the home stretch get slammed like this? As I’m sure you can all imagine this is not exactly how I saw my senior year playing out.
So after an entire day of wallowing, half a carton of ice-cream, and the inevitable sob sessions (each time I had to explain the situation to anyone); I have decided that what’s done is done and I’m moving forward. No one can tell me who I am and am not aloud to see, and I am not going into seclusion for a month, so I’m just going to have to make the best of it. I plan to start running during my newly acquired free time, and for the first time ever I’m going to a Hokie football game as a student (tailgating and all)!
Here’s to picking up the pieces, realizing this is not the end of the world, and moving on!

I'm sorry this happened, but I support your outlook. It sucks to realize that the world and those in it are sometimes not as sincere or genuine or nice as perhaps you thought they were. But I know from personal experience that life does go on, and it's just as good as beforehand. Keep your chin up, you're a great person, and anyone who makes you feel otherwise is not worth the worry.
