ReplyDeleteMy name is Marybeth Nicely, I am actually very glad to be back at Lindenwood. I stopped attending Lindenwood my sophomore year.

ReplyDeleteMy name is Matthew Gonzalez, I am a history major. I'm not entire sure on if I'll go into education or not, but I love history, so I put that down as my intended major. I have lived in St. Charles my entire life, and I have been to Lindenwood many times before enrolling here, I love the campus. I am a graduate of DeSmet Jesuit in Creve Coeur. I think it's great that you're doing your doctoral thesis on blogs, one of my teachers had a similar program he used, but would make the assignments such that if we didn't reply to his posts early, we would either lose points or would have a tough time coming up with something original to say =/
ReplyDeleteOn another note, I couldn't log in with my lionmail for this comment, although it works any other time I use it.

ReplyDeleteHi, guys! Great comments. I really enjoy reading about you. Thanks for sharing your talents, quirks, passions, dreams...
ReplyDeleteDana-interesting OCD tendencies. Have you seen the show called "Obsession" on A&E? I saw one the other night of this girl who was obsessed with brushing her teeth. She was so freaked about her teeth she wouldn't eat an apple or corn. For 11 years she had not eaten an apple, corn or anything hard for fear that her teeth might chip. Be thankful your little obsession is just on the tv volume.
Mike - glad to hear you are not a Cubs fan! Go Cards!

ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad, everyone has their quirks. I personally cannot stand someone looking over my shoulder. It just makes me feel creepy, like I got caught with my hand in the cookie jar even though I did nothing wrong or like someone's watching you and you can't see them. That and someone having their hand on the back of my chair when I'm sitting in it-it just bugs me.
