Random Facts About Allison819
-I am a freshman at Georgia Southern University, which is located in Statesboro, GA. Some days I walk outside my dorm and it is hotter than hell (not that I would know how hot hell is, but if I had to guess).

-I am majoring in Interior Design. I have heard nothing good about this major from anyone on campus, which makes me pretty damn nervous. However, my brain just works that way (ie: design).

-I have never been a straight-A student in any science or history class. I have always excelled in art classes. I wish I had gone to a school where all the classes revolved around art. I would have graduated with higher than a 4.0. Instead, I went to a small private school where there are hardly any classes revolving around art.

-Oh well. As my Grandma says, such is life.

There's That Thing Called A Username...
-Allison819 does have some significance. Not that anyone cares, but I'm going to tell you anyway.

-Allison is my first name. My oldest brother named me.
 * ...Why did he choose Allison? I have no idea.
 * ...Why did my parents let their 6 year old son choose a random name for their only daughter? I have no idea.

-But, he did choose a good one. I'm not complaining.

-I was supposed to use certain numbers to signify myself in the Wikipedia world for my English class...but of course I forgot. Now I am the only one in my English class that doesn't have those numbers at the end of their username. Cool.

-The 819 stands for my birthday (August 19th). ''...Easy to remember. Close enough.''

Contributions to Wikipedia
So far, the only reason I am even on Wikipedia is for my Freshman English class at Georgia Southern University. I am writing an article about the Cox Capitol Theatre, which is located in my hometown of Macon, Georgia.

However, I have made edits and contributions to the following articles:
 * Stratford Academy - the school in Macon, Georgia where I attended for 14 years.
 * Alpha Delta Pi - the sorority I am a member of.
 * International Cherry Blossom Festival - a yearly festival in my hometown of Macon, GA that I served on the Royalty Court as a Princess for the year 2010.
 * Wesleyan College - the college my Mother attended and the birthplace of my sorority, Alpha Delta Pi.
 * Nu-Way Weiners - one of Macon's famous restaurants.

I'm the next Bill Gates...Doubt It. But Hopefully I'm The Next Candice Olson
-If you don't know who Candice Olson is...I suggest you turn on your TV immediately and find out when her show, Divine Design comes on HGTV.
 * -Watch it.
 * -Laugh.
 * -Learn.
 * -"Ohhh, Ahhh."
 * -Enjoy.

Now on to Technology...
-I'm not going to lie...I love it. And I've become pretty damn good at it if I do say so myself. :o)
 * -My blackberry= ♥
 * -My laptop= ♥
 * -My iPad= ♥
 * -My iPod= ♥
 * -My GPS= ♥

(For you men...and whoever else is confused...the "♥" is equivalent to "love")

Tell Me How You REALLY Feel...About Wikipedia
-Here's the deal:
 * -I was forbidden to EVER, EVER, and I mean  EVER!!!  use Wikipedia as a source for any paper in high school.

-Here's how it worked: (I won't mention any names...)
 * -Allison: "Ms. What's Your Name, am I allowed to use Wikipedia as one of my sources for my research paper?"
 * -Ms. What's Your Name: "NO!!! Wikipedia is not a credible source!"

-Here's what they really meant:
 * -Look, I'm not an idiot. I know all you're going to do is copy and paste the entire article on Wikipedia and paste it on Word and turn it in. I refuse to even waste my valuable time reading that nonsense.

-Here's how I REAAALLYY feel: -Wikipedia is convenient.
 * For example:
 * -Say your at Buffalo's on a Thursday night with some friends playing Trivia. They call out a question and no one knows the answer... or anything about the subject. This would be a PRIME time to pull out your Blackberry, type www.wikipedia.org into your internet, and search.
 * -The result: you look like a badass (excuse my profanity) when your team gets the question right.

-Other than that...Wikipedia isn't going to be my #1 stop when searching for information about a topic.
 * -Why?
 * -Because 19 year-old college students like myself can easily create an account and write an article.

-Also, I don't think I will continue to make contributions on Wikipedia. I'd rather be outside than sitting in front of a computer. (Sorry if this offends anyone...but I wasn't ask to lie in my userpage)

-And that's pretty much it. That's how I REALLY feel. I wouldn't lie to ya...I'm a pretty blunt and honest person (if you haven't figured that out already...)



Languages
-Let me just say this:
 * -My teacher was the same the entire 3 years I took Spanish in high school. She barely spoke English. Enough said.

-So, my primary (and pretty much only...) language is English. And I am perfectly fine with that.
