"The Year of the Little Brother"


So ever since the beginning of time lol Michigan State has been known as the little brother of the University of Michigan. Well, for quite some time, MSU has definitely lived up to that name.

Now, I'm not the biggest football fan, but I definitely always want my school to beat its rival. And for the past 2 years, MSU has done just that, both on our field and "The Bigger House." Of course with this being my last year, I decided to get involved in the festivities in hopes that my school will once again pull out a win against Michigan...for the third time. So it was off to Ann Arbor with the buddies to have a great time with fellow Spartans to cheer our team on to a third year win!!!

Well, good news....WE DID IT!!!!! We Spartans pulled out an epic win for the 3rd year in a row and had an even more impressive record of 7 and 0. How awesome is that?!?! Truly it was a great day to be a Spartan :). Then again, when is it never a great time to be a Spartan?

Check out the headlining story here from our State News.

"Introduction of a Spartan"


So, this is my 5th year as a student at Michigan State University, and unfortunately, my final year :(. I know, right? It's been a long journey and as I look back on all that I have accomplished and learned these past years, I can do nothing but smile and see and bright future ahead of me. I truly love this school and all the people that I have encountered. Some have remained in my life, and some have made their exits. Either way, they have each taught me something about life and about myself.

In case you haven't read from my short bio, I am pursuing a career as an investigative journalist. I have a burning desire and passion for those big-name stories, and I plan to report on those types of stories that give the people a voice, and not simply get reported for ratings. I want to tell the real stories and use my own creativity to do such. So, to assist me in keeping abreast of news and keeping my journalistic skills fresh, I've decided to use this blog as a digital portfolio of my journalistic work in terms of my final year here at MSU. I want to make a saga recounting some of the things that go on here that others may not hear about too often in the news. You'll see photos, video footage and the likes here on this page. So sit back, relax, enjoy, and follow me as I chronicle "The Life of a Spartan Woman."

GO GREEN!!!! GO WHITE!!!!
