I am transferring.
Well, not really.
Transferring means that you intend to go to another school.
I have no school to go to next semester.
I could stay here but IDK.
I just woke up one morning and didn't feel like it.
Yeah, that is pretty much how it went!
I will probably attend a JuCo as my friend from Arizona calls it and then transfer to Georgia State or Kennesaw State!
I must say it was GREAT TO BE A GEORGIA BULLDAWG!
I have had a lot of majors while I was here and I really cannot seem to make up my mind.
I would love to do education but it is too competitive of a program to get into and I waited too late to apply and graduate anywhere near on time.
So yeah...
Farewell
On to Chapter 15 in my life!
I'll write Chapters 1-14 soon~

What’s Ya Name? J-Money. First Name. Last Name.
What’s Ya Name? B-Claire. First Name. First Name.
Call me Brie! It is a cheese. But I prefer Brittanie-Claire anyday. It has a sheer uniqueness to it that only I can have. Ha! Sucks for you.
I have been told that my name is beautiful, elegant, job-worthy[later blog] and etc. It’s what my parents named me, so I love it.
It just becomes bothersome when people do not take the time to say it correctly. It is not that difficult. As a matter of fact, have a simple name.
Brittanie-Claire.
Hmmmm… I wonder who said it correctly.
BRIT-TA-KNEE CLAIRE. It is a total of 4 syllables. I know people with 1 first name with more than four syllables.
But it seems people have a difficult time with my name. It isn’t complex. So you must be simple.
Last part of this short blog:
If you cannot say Brittanie-Claire, please say Brie. BUT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN YOU SHORTEN MY NAME. My name is not Brittanie. It is Brittanie-Claire. How would you like it if I cut your name in half?

About Me: Post 1
Possibly trying to define myself on the internet, could be one of the most challenging things I have ever attempted to take on.
1. I am Brie. Real Name: Brittanie-Claire Johnson
I do not really understand why I have two first names. I just do! And I am completely fine with that. Some say everyone wanted to name me. My mom says my name is supposed to be Phylicia. So whatever.
***BRIT-TA-KNEE-----CLAIRE***
2. I am supposed to write I am a Christian so I will write that. I am but it is a work in progress. It will always be. I love God but I do not enjoy listening to Him. Although when I do listen to Him, I am happier. So Yeah.
3.I am very free-spirited. I believe that I can never contradict myself. Yerp, that is what I believe so deal with it or BE GONE! [[[are you still reading?]]]
4. My daddy can sue your daddy and win! Remember that? Well, that is just my Hayden-Johnson pride. I love my family. They rock! My parents are bomb![[[ha ha]]] My dad is on facebook. Check him out! My mom is technologically impaired but whatever, one day she might be on facebook. Both of my sisters are on Facebook. They rock too. And they are gorgeous.
5. My grade point average does not reflect my intellectual ability. I do not believe in grades. I believe in understanding. I refuse to play the "who can get inside of the professors head" game. It isn't fun and it does NOT show that you can think for yourself. I came to the UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA for one thing and that was to learn. I am not an excellent writer but I am an excellent orator.
6. Don't talk about it. Be about it. If you do not have a giving heart, guess what? It doesn't matter! There are probably cornucopias of great things about you. It drives me crazy to see people try to be something they are not to fit in with a certain group of people. I would love to elaborate but I cannot. Well whatever, I shall. Ever since I was a young girl I loved to help out in the community. It’s my thang! :) So naturally, when I got to college, I was going to continue my to follow my passion of helping out in the community and getting involved. It bothers me, to the depths of my bone marrow cells [?] when people do community service solely because they have Divine Nine Greek Intentions. I mean, I guess it is a great thing if people would continue after they graduate but I feel as if most people just put on a front just to be able to be considered for membership… But of course we do not have that problem on The University of Georgia’s campus. ………………………………………… yeah

20 Things That I Have Learned These Past 20 Years:
- Never take anything for granted.
- Time waits for no [wo]man.
- God always has your front, back, side or side.
- If the shoe fits, wear it. If it doesn’t fit then send it back for the right size.
- Never be content with settling for less.
- Christians seem to be SUPER happy.
- Family can be more than family. They can also be your Best Friends!
- Rebel a little.
- Fight for what you believe in.
- Research what you believe in.
- Know why you believe what you believe.
- Everyone is in your life for a reason, but most will only stay a season.
- Don’t let your past hold you back.
- Find the front door but also know a couple other entries.
- Hope for the BEST but plan for the WORST.
- Boyfriends should be just that. Boy Friends. Male Friends. Friends.
- Don’t date to date. Date to get married. [It’s a big difference]
- Naps are cool.
- Some weekends you should PARTY PARTY PARTY.
- It’s cool to go GREEN!
*Bonus: Follow your heart and live your passion!
Random Thoughts from an In-Class Prompt
In my educational technology class, my professor gave us prompts to write about the following four things:
Name something that you have learned in the last year
Name something you have learned in the last 24 hours
Describe a “best of” learning experiences
Describe an experience in which you didn’t learn
I picked:
Name something you have learned in the last 24 hours
· There is a such thing as “frenemies”
· Follow your passion
· Don’t let your past hold you back
· Family always has your best interest at heart
· Love
First subject on my mind today would be to not let my past hold me back. Sometimes people do things that they are not too proud of but that shouldn’t be a weight over my head. Other people may look at it as one but I MUST be the optimistic person. I must keep moving because God knows my passion, my heart and my goals (hopefully ours are the same.) People make mistakes BUT it is how they go about correcting the mistakes that makes them a genuine person. I have learned to not focus on my past but my BRIGHT future that lies ahead. If God is for me then who can (successfully) be against me? NO ONE!
Secondly, I have learned that I MUST follow my passion. No ifs, ands, or buts! If I cannot see myself doing it for free then why the hell would I do it at all? People are in a lot of professions for the money but I believe that you have to genuinely follow your heart or at the end of the day you will continually be asking yourself, “WHY?”
Frenemies, how many of us have them? It is amazing to me how the people you can hold closest to your heart can do the most horrid things, or NOT do anything at all. I have learned within the last 24 hours that the people I need to hold closest to me is my family. They have YET to let me down and I do not believe that they will. I recently lost two best friends, I am not sure if they know it yet but I do. I feel that if I cannot trust you with my love, my heart or my emotions than who can I trust? People just aren’t made the same anymore.
Love. People throw the word love around like it is a game of hot potato! But it isn’t! Think before you speak. The type of love that I want in my life is the type that would fight for me, live for me, die for me, believe in me and trust me. Did you just answer yes to all five things? If so, give me a call. If not, reconsider.
What is learning?
Hmmm.
Learning.
Learning for me is not necessarily knowledge like information for academics but real life learning. I feel as if most professions should not go to college but I feel as if you go for the learning experiences. Am I making sense?
To be continued...
Love, Brittanie-Claire
