App State Against Hate

Readers! 

It is time I call on you to help me out in my crusade for social justice and universal equality. My Good friends Michelle, Matt, Freddy and I have teamed up to bring marriage equality to Boone, NC. 

Maybe you've herd of NO H8, well this is similar, BUT DIFFERENT (we ran into so potential copy right issues....). "App State Against Hate" is what we are calling it. We are inviting all university faculty, staff and students to come out and pose in black t-shits, yellow duck tape with our "App State Against Hate" logo painted on your check. 

So far, the response has been explosive. I created an event to test for interest and with in 24 hours we had over 300 members. Below I've included the link to the Facebook Group and to the Event. Check them both out! If you are interested, RSVP, tell everyone you know, and BE THERE!!!!!

La Musia y Nieve

How goes it friends? 

Hope everyone is have a wonderful Monday. I had my first class of the day canceled so I caught up on sleep. 

Today I'm going to touch on a few things close to my heart (both figuratively and literally): Music and Snow. 

If you end up coming to App, you are going to be inundated with an avalanche of both (haha...."avalanche" because I'm talking about snow... get it....oh never mind). Obviously, Boone is in the mountains so IT'S COLD!! Once you become a student here, please don't make a scene and complain about how cold it is and blah blah blah... YES! IT IS COLD! If you had gone to the University of Miami, you wouldn't be wining all day about how hot it is.

 And then there is the Music! You're iTunes library is going to take up more memory space than school work after just a few short weeks in the dorms. I have been exposed to so many new genres and bands and it has been one of the greatest perks of college so far. For you seniors who are still working hard (you got the acceptance letter, chill!) Look up Pretty Lights, it's great study music. 

Everyone stay bundled up. These past few weeks have made me question Al Gores claims about Global Warming. 

Abrazos!
