Car Stress

Buying a car is a stress to most, but a life hassle for me. Life is so stressful right now due to sorority rush.. but a new car is higher on the priority list then getting new pledges. 

Car options: Audi A4 and Acura TSX.... decisions, decisions...

Creepy Critter

Just a short note to say how one little creepy critter can ruin my entire day, night, and sleep. I suffer from entomophobia, which is the fear of bugs, but more specificailly- flying cockroaches (waterbugs). We have a clean house and have regular house cleanings, but we have a pool in the back yard along with water throughout the yard. These things I am so petrified of are the size of my pinky with wings. These things, cockroaches (waterbugs), make me shut all the doors in my house just so it can't go from room to room!


Well, that last sentenced proved me wrong. Late last night, I was doing some homework in the living area. I noticed something moving that shouldn't be- it was a flying cockroach. I ran out of the living area, shutting the doors behind me. I thought I was safe in my room when I hear what sounds like a ticking noise... I turn my head and BAM! The flying cockroach followed me into my room and was just about face-to-face with me on my bed!! 


A scream came out and woke my brother up who came to the rescue. Twenty minutes later...... the roach is dead. I am so scared of these tiny little creepy creatures, yet the most efficient thing would to just step on it. Needless to say, I was too scared to shut my eyes, so no sleep for me last night... and it seems no sleep for me tonight. Damn waterbug.

Welcome!

Welcome to "life as a cartwheel.."

Let me start of by introducing myself to you; my name is Angela Koenke and I am excited to share with you the happenings of my life through this blog. I am a college student pursing my Bachelors of Business Administration, with a focus in marketing. My intended graduation date is this December and the next life plan will to start my Master's degree. I am what most would call a "Southern Belle". I am a Georgia Peach who appreciates my pearls, sweet tea, and the unforgettable southern drawl. If you didn't already guess it, I'm a sorority girl and proud of it- Phi Mu. I like to live on the edge, yet I know what my limits are.

Some may wonder why I decided on the name, "life as a cartwheel.." Well, I tried to do a cartwheel the other day and felt like I broke my shoulder... lol just kidding! As a child, my favorite thing to do was cheerleading and tumbling. Cartwheels came naturally to me when I started at the young age of five years old. I've been doing cartwheels since then and now they hold some meaning to me. I compare life to cartwheels in many different ways. Cartwheels allow you to move your body in a circular motion while moving forward, kinda like life. Life moves on, whether we like it or not, everyday. Not only do days go by, they also come with complications, laughs, struggles, tears, joy, etc.. These emotions and happenings all describe the circle in the cartwheel. So, I think life is like a cartwheel- you start each day, experience some happenings and emotions, and keep moving on! (There's no turning back, literally!)

I hope you enjoy my posts of my daily "cartwheels!"
