Well, my name is Taylor O'Neal to begin with. I'm 18 years old and a freshman at the University of Oklahoma. I'm majoringin Public Relations, I think? But I guess that's just the boring stuff. A little about me, hm. I've moved 14 times in my entire life time( not saying 18 years is a long life time ) and throughout highschool, I lived alone with my dad in Mustang, Oklahoma. I looved highschool. I was student council president, and I was over involved in everything. Which is saddening to me, because I'm not involved at all in college yet. My parents divorced when i was like 9, so it's really not that big of a deal. My mom lives in edmond, so I get to spend plenty of time with her too. I have a 13 year old half brother, who is by far the biggest pain in the arse. But I think it has to be our age difference. I'm still unsure if I'll stay here at OU, because I'm thinking of transferring to UCO next fall. Oh, yea, that's one thing that's difficult about me, I change my mind every 5 seconds about evverrryything. I just broke up with my boyfriend that I had been with throughout highschool, which has been very hard on me. And when you tell people about it, they just shrug, because they consider it a highschool love, which everyone seems to go through. But mine was insane. Our senior summer, he lost his left leg in an accident. So going through that with someone kinda makes a relationship a tad different than others. I'll admit, I'm still heartbroken. But to get to the point I guess, I'm very excited about this class! I know of older men that say they tried to take womens studies in college, and they just laugh, because they were very mistaken on what the course would be about. But my mom has raised me on the impowerment of women, and the ignored undermindment women still recieve today. For the longest time, all I wanted her to do was hush up when she went on one of her raves about women's rights. But now I'm really excited to take this course, just so I can learn more. I don't think we got a fair dose of women's history in highschool, so I'm pumoed about this class. If I had to ask 5 questions for this semester, I think I'd want to learn : 1. Do women honestly mature faster than men do :) ? 2. Anything really about women's sexuality? And why it's different for men and women in the sexual aworld? 3. Why do girls, call other girls sluts? Why aren't we all on the same team? 4. Since when did too thin become beautiful, and why? 5. (I think this may be just a life question..) Can realtionships actually work? Oh and one more, 6. Why isn't there a men's studies class? haha.
Those are just a few things, I'd like to figure out.
Well, I've never blogged before, but it's kinda fun.
peace!
