On this date last year I got asked to be a girlfriend, I had no clue where this relationship would take me.
I fell in love by the second week of dating him, he told me he loved me the third week. Yes it was fast but they say when you know, you know.
We spent 11 months together, but it felt like a lifetime. We went through a lot together; we fought, we made up, experienced tragedy, two winter storms, happy times, and a lot of parties. By the end of April he pearled me (in my sorority when a boy is serious about you he pearl's you, kinda like a promise ring).
In my mind I kept thinking this is the one, the man I want to spend my life with. The one I want to continue making life experiences with.
Little did I know when I got home from college in May that long distance and politics would get in between my goals and love for him.
When my future became apparent and what I set my mind to, I obviously consulted to him to see if his future matched mine. And it didn't. As the political announcements started to happen, politics became a huge central force in fights. Neither one of us wanted to compromise what we believed in, but you can't not talk about current events when they're going to affect both of your futures. He wants to work in a bank and stay close to Nashville. However I want to travel and explore and move far away and work in politics. There was problem number one.
Problem number two, we both believed in God, but different ideas of the Bible. I am a southern baptist, he is a methodist - well kinda. He didn't want to marry in my church. And me being stubborn, I didn't want to change what I wanted.
Problem number three was how we both wanted different styled families. He wanted one child, two at the most. I wanted two of my own, and opened my home for foster children and potentially adoption. He didn't want that.
Some couples can make it past all these problems, but to me they are big problems. I sat there and prayed and prayed that things would change and that God would show me clarity on my future with him. And God spoke. We broke up on June, 26, 2015.
It's funny how beautiful things can be put into your life, make you so extremely happy, but then so extremely confused and hurt because the one person you wanted, doesn't want the same thing. Life has a funny way of making things happen for you.
It's been one month since the break up, and I told myself I wasn't going to blog about it anymore, but there is just so much on my mind and so many things other women can learn from my story.
1. Never settle your dreams for a man
2. Never let him feel like you are less than beautiful
3. Speak up because your life matters
4. Don't feel bad about who YOU are
5. Praying does help when you need clarity
6. YOU are important
7. Don't change on the account of finding love
8. Men are temporary, but girlfriends and family are forever
9. Don't ignore your gut feeling
10. Being happy is never selfish
These 10 things are what I've learned when I went back and reflected on the past year of my life. He will always hold a place in my heart for how he made me fall in love, but he won't be the one for me.
You have your first love, which makes you feel over the moon and like you have the world in your hands. Then you have your second love, and that just magnifies everything, intensely. I can't wait to find a third love that will make me feel beautiful, more of a woman like my life isn't complete without him experiencing life with me. - But it is important for women to remember to love yourself, because that is the greatest romance you will experience in life. Being happy in your skin, with your heart on your sleeve. Let yourself fall madly in love with your soul that you are your greatest love story. That is where I am in life, finding my love story within me.
Until then, this will be my last blog about boys, about break up's. I am 20 years old and have a whole life to live, and I am not going to let a man define me and my dreams. I have so much life to live, and so many experience yet to be explored. I am ready for the next chapter in my life.

The origins of: The Elephant in the Room
I took this saying: "the elephant in the room" and made it into my own. The origins of the saying means that people, when having a conversation are ignoring a problem, or conflict, that stands out in a major way.
I decided to make my blog title the phrase because I feel there aren't enough women blogging about their political beliefs, or life experiences. There are plenty of college women blogging about break-ups, sororities, etc. Heck I wrote about a break up - I am a girl after all. And when we get older, out of the college phase of life women tend to blog about self help, cooking, or being a mother.
I wanted my blog to be about societal problems, my problems that no one is willing to address. So I am taking it into my hands and letting the world wide web know my opinions. Is everyone going to like them? No. Is everyone going to agree with me? Heck no. But that is what's wonderful about America, we have the first amendment that allows all of us bloggers share our stories and opinions.
But there is one thing that is an elephant in the room for me, is that, not all women are feminist. I am not one, and I can list all reasons why - but I'm sure I'll make that into a blog post later. But I do believe women should blog more about their political desires, beliefs and conspiracies. We have a right to do so. Am I terrified as a young woman doing this? Absolutely. I feel called to address these issues or conflicts because I don't see anyone else doing it.
I want to use my writing, my blog, my hopes and dreams to connect to people who feel the same way who want to say all of the things I'm writing and spark courage into their hearts. I feel called to lead, and I am passionate about writing and politics (if you don't believe me, ask any of my sorority sisters or family).
Politics is always going to be the "elephant in the room" with many conversations between people. I don't want it to be one for me. So that's why I started my blog, that's why I feel encouraged every day. Knowing I could impact someone, spark an idea or conversation between people. I can change someone's life by eliminating the elephant in the room.

Stand with Rand 2016 - We have come to take our country back
![]() |
Presidential Candidate Rand Paul (R) Kentucky |
"We need to have working-class folks, we need to have people with earrings, nose rings, tattoos, ties, without ties, ponytails, no ponytails." - Rand Paul, to the New Republic
The quote above is one of the many reasons why I love him. He gets the generation below him, he gets all forms of class, and he gets America.
Many people tell me when they see my tattoos ask me, "aren't you scared you won't get a job in politics because of tattoos?" I always say, "if the country is as progressive as it says to be, tattoos are the least of my worries." About 40 percent of Millennials have a tattoo according to a Pew Research Center report. that's almost to half of my generation. And Paul supports that, which is pretty cool.
Another reason to love Paul is that he values privacy. With debating and researching everything going on with National Security Agency. Ask any Millennial, we value our privacy, we enjoy knowing the government isn't spying on us. NSA shouldn't have the right to go through and collect cellphone data, unless they have probable cause. A police cant search your car or home without a warrant and suspension that you are up to no good, so NSA should be held to that standard, or not be able to function at all.
He believes in the constitution, which I believe many politicians forget thats the backbone of our country. Without it, we wouldn't be here.
Though his father was a politician, he grew up to be something else, an eye surgeon. He didn't go into politics, didn't become engulfed with lobbyists, big corporations, to make a career out of being a politician. HE is a surgeon first, Senator second, President of these United States next. He does what's right, not by what's right in the party. He calls everyone out, he truly wants our country to be better. Who wouldn't want a man who loves America so much that he isn't scared of the Washington Machine, and to hurt other people's feelings?
Rand Paul speaking in an interview about his nonprofit surgeries |
His economic reform is called: Economic Freedom Zones.
What exactly is that? -- Areas of reduced taxes, which are different than a government stimulus. Reducing taxes in economically depressed areas is a stimulus that will work because the money is returned to businesses and individuals who have already proven that they can succeed.
(link is embedded to check out all of the information on the Economic Freedom Zone)

Rand Paul speaks from the heart, with the influence of his wisdom and experiences. He is what we need for our country. He will not only change the republican party, he will change America.
I will stand with Rand as he goes through this next election season. Vote Rand Paul in 2016.

The Responsibility of being White and an American
Recently got into a twitter argument with my horribly liberal cousin and her friends. They're all people of color, and talking about white privilege. Well I for one, am sick and tired of people like that telling me I have it better than them. Yes I'm not on welfare, affordable health care, or food stamps but that does not mean I have "white privilege."
When my mother was going through her divorce at the age of 20-years-old, she needed government assistance. She was on food stamps to be able to afford my baby formula, and food for her. She paid for in-home daycare so she could go to school to provide for her and I. --- THAT MY FRIEND IS WHY AID IS HERE FOR US!!! NOT TO ABUSE IT THE WAY IT IS NOW!!
In my life I have experienced racism more than the media would like you to think. When I was eight years old, at my cousins house, who is biracial with Thai and white, she lived in a military base and her friends in her neighborhood were black. Well when I was there, I went to go play with her and her friends at the friends house. As soon as I walked in to go play, the little girls father said to me, and my cousin, "who let this cracker in my house?" No I'm not making this up, because I didn't know it was bad until I asked my mom and dad (he adopted me) what cracker meant. That was my first experience with feeling hatred.
Now in my life, I experience it at school. I am in the School of Journalism and Broadcasting, and when I applied for scholarships my freshmen year, then again did not experience "white privilege." When searching all scholarships for broadcasting for white students you had to have an essay, two recommendation letters, AND a 3.2 GPA. while the Hispanic, and black and Asian requirements weren't even as close to difficult of achieving. I felt so low, and so bad that I was an average student.
The system isn't built to prevent anyone of creating a better life for themselves, though it is difficult, it is up to you to make it through the challenges.
I AM A WHITE AMERICAN AND REALLY PROUD. <-- No one can take that away from me.
I WORK HARD AND REALLY PROUD. <-- No one can take that away from me.
I RECEIVE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND TREATMENT. <-- YOUR attitude CAN take that away from me.
I hold myself accountable to not be another statistic, to not be someone who allows the media to control my feelings, thoughts, opinions and life.
Today I experienced racism through twitter, for being white. For those who don't think it happens, I had a puerto rican American, Black American, and a Thai mixed American attack me, for defending myself when I said not all white people inherit "white privilege," not all white people are handed things. I know I'm not.
Great example of a black man choosing not to be, Republican Candidate for President of these United States, Dr. Ben Carson. He was born in Detroit Michigan, single mother of three boys. She chose to not let her boys be apart of the statistics. He lived the American dream. Went to the best schools, because he worked hard, became a successful pediatric neurosurgeon because of hard work. Now hes running for President.
Not everyone has to be the victim, not everyone has privilege over everyone, unless you were born into it. (well there's even exceptions to that statement)
I AM MIDDLE CLASS AMERICAN CITIZEN WHO HAS STUDENT LOAN DEBT AND I AM DAMN PROUD OF WHERE I AM FROM, AND WHERE I AM GOING!

All for one, and Justice for all?
What does Justice mean? And what does it mean to be just? Well to me, it means that you get what you deserve in the most moral, and rightful way. But what does Dictionary.com say about the defintion of justice? It means: The quality of being just; righteousness; equitableness; or moral rightness.
Being a 20-year-old woman in the age of technology, I went to twitter to see what they think justice means... many twitter users are using the hashtag, #justice in their tweets to express how they feel about Sandra Bland, and #BlackLivesMatter... justice for them right and only them because of their skin tone.
Well, I pulled some tweets from users, I'll list them below..
-JaiJakJayMOM with her handle @XoXo__Her said: "R.I.P babe :'( .. this touched me the most bc it could've been me #SANDRABLAND #JUSTICE followed by an instagram post..
-N B K with her handle @hannahhipley said: "RP my last tweet so you can see my uncle's death by police brutality was also ruled suicide #SandraBland #justice
-Princeton with this handle @PeacePunkPrince said: Rest in peace #SandraBland something needs to change in the world, or people are going to start changing it for themselves, #Justice
One of her tweets that speaks to me the most is: "AT FIRST THEY USED A NOOSE, NOW ALL THEY DO IS SHOOT #BlackLivesMatter #SandySpeaks

28-year-old woman, who spoke out on police brutality, using the hashtag #sandyspeaks |
If I am correct, they used a noose on anyone who broke the law, whether you were white or black. Black Americans have had it rougher than most in the history of this country. But does that give them the reason to act out, feel entitled? It shouldn't.
The media has spun so many things out of proportion, all we see is #BlackLivesMatter and Black Americans receiving police brutality. But Bland did not receive brutality when arrested, not in the case of where she was beaten and shot. When the report came out about her death, they found high levels of marijuana and as many as 30 cut marks on her wrists.

Her family claims she wasn't depressed, or wasn't on any medication that they were aware of. But marijuana is a depressant, and cutting her wrists is a form of release due to depression. On her paperwork she was she was depressed and tried to commit suicide after having a miscarriage a year ago, but on another portion of paperwork it said no to attempted suicide. Her paperwork was not consistent. She hung herself after spending three days in jail.
the reason why she was arrested because she was irritated with a police officer, would not put out her cigarette - could've been marijuana, there was strong language exchanged and then she was arrested.

How do we provide justice for someone who knows there is police brutality, but yet spoke with disrespect, acted upon hatred? What Bland did was become another statistic, more fuel to the fire. Follow the law, speak words of kindness, be patient. I do not sympathize for her, I do not sympathize for baltimore's Freddie Gray or any of the other cases. The reason being, they were acting dangerous and not following the law in the first place.
Recently, my family was pulled over for speeding back from vacation a couple weeks ago, my dad was driving we were going 15 over the speed limit. The police man was doing his job, being strict and enforcing the law and asking the questions he had to because of protocol. My dad could've been rude, could've not followed his instructions, but he didn't- he did exactly what officer wanted him to. My dad is still alive, did not experience brutality. And no you can't say it's because we are white. It's because he did what he was suppose to do, well other than speeding.
I guess no one can be just, until we all start treating each other with respect, with humanity. Justice is in the eyes of the beholder. If you want justice, be moral, be right, don't break the law.

Irrelevant theme
Update on the life of Madison....
Well for one, I am inches away from starting a student based campus campaign for Rand Paul. I am, well hopefully going to be chapter President once it gets approved. Prayin' it happens, because it would be a dream come true, to run an actual campaign and get my feet wet with my dream job.
Two, I'm about to move into my very first apartment with a few of the coolest sorority sisters and embark on adulting. The magical world of adulthood, working a job, paying rent - with a side of school.
Three, to say that I'm not excited for Junior year on the Hill would be an understatement. I'm stoked.
I generally hate the blogs that are filled with pointless meme's and gif's and girls talking about how TV shows reflect their lives.... But I totally feel like Leslie Knope on the episode when she meets Joe Biden - best reference I could come up with. meme to follow... ugh really mad I am doing it, but hey it's my blog so I can do whatever I want.
The reason why I made the title irrelevant is because this has nothing to do with politics, but almost everything to do with my life.

Overview of Senatorial year in Student Government Association
This past academic year at Western Kentucky University I had been elected to be a senator in our SGA, and serve my campus community. It was a whirlwind of excitement, controversy and fun. I am really looking forward to my second semester inside SGA.
I think my views and beliefs set me aside of most of my colleagues inside of the Senate Chambers. I debated against most bills brought up, supported few that I believed in and even co-authored a bill.
When debating I made sure my heart and mind were in the right place and saying appropriate words so no one got offended and understood my message. I got such excitement knowing my voice was being heard and affecting our campus in a positive way. It's really like nothing else when the Speaker of Senate calls your name for a pro or a con on a resolution, I loved it.
Topics I debated were about a smoking ban, or making the campus a "wet" campus, taking away sectarian prayers, and a few more. Topics I supported were, making campus greener by using recyclable to go boxes, keeping of our blue light system (press button and campus police comes to your location) and a few more.
I chose my debates based on what I personally felt like didn't discriminate against anyone, didn't harm anyone, also what would keep campus safe and improve the quality of living.
In the resolution I co-authored was made to change election codes, because a few people inside of SGA broke the codes, that were silly in the first place. I decided to support this because it's the right and logical thing to do, to help improve campaigning for the future senators and so on.
I can't wait to see what next semester brings, but I hope after this spring's elections it brings more people as passionate as I am to our Chambers.

Do all lives matter?
Recently Martin O'Malley got in trouble in an interview with his saying "all lives matter." Which is a true statement, all lives matter. If we want to be a futuristic society and believing fully in equality, it truly means all lives matter.
Candidate O'Malley had to apologize for his statement, which was: "I certainly do and, in fact, I believe what I first said was that ‘black lives matter’ before those other two phrases. And when I said those other two phrases I meant no disrespect to the point, which I understand, that black lives matter is making.” http://dailycaller.com/2015/07/18/omalley-apologizes-for-saying-all-lives-matter-video/

O'Malley at his speech when saying "all lives matters" |
O'Malley is a Democratic candidate for the Presidential race for 2016. Though I do not agree with him on his politics, I do agree with All Lives Matter.
We should all care about each other, not just stand out to one race.
It's funny the side of liberalism who preaches black lives matter, they're more racist than anything I've ever seen. It's selfish really, because not only are saying no one else matters, you are making this nation walk on eggshells so YOU are not offended.
I for one, am tired of reverse racism. White deaths happen more than black deaths, but minority deaths are media buzz worthy rather than talking about the white male or female dying because of police violence brought upon themselves- or not.
What is your opinion on all lives matter? Do they really, or is it just a way to glamorize crime, and death in the media? Because that's what I think about this movement. Race was dealt with and won in with MLK JR, and until now we have lived in harmony. Unless I'm naive, and believe that and all citizens in the United States of America matter.

United we stand, Confederate we fall...
Recently since the Charleston tragedy many people from all political parties, and all over the nation have been talking about how the confederate flag is a symbol of racism. Which I understand, but if you look at history correctly, the Confederate flag is a symbol of the south. The rebel flag was created for the south who was succeeding from the north to create it's own country. Which in their efforts they lost.
Another piece of history people are forgetting during that time period, many democrats were slave owners and did not want to get rid of their slaves Democrats who had a hard time accepting civil right movements flew the confederate flag on state capitol buildings. Ab Lincoln, if you look in his political beliefs he aligns with republicans. Martin Luther King JR was a republican, are you catching my drift?
Now TV shows are being canceled, movies and books being retracted all because they're deemed racist. Well I think that's a load of crap. - We need these shows, movies, books, text books to learn from history, to prevent it from repeating and humble the youth and elderly of America.
The sensitivity of race, diversity, and differences has to stop. Doesn't anyone else see that censoring our media, and censoring our beliefs is leading towards a much bigger problem? Socialism on the rise with the rate the government is going.
And I for one, do not want socialism in the home of the free. It strips down our rights, our voice, our beliefs all because series of events are allowing the government change our way of life.
If anyone is like me, you want the government out of your business, stop censoring America and start accepting the fact there are bigger and worse problems to deal with. Not an evil child who took the lives of innocent people, or rioting the streets because of injustice.
I want my government to fix the economy, fix or destroy the rise of ISIS, or end abortions for good.
God Bless America.

Now TV shows are being canceled, movies and books being retracted all because they're deemed racist. Well I think that's a load of crap. - We need these shows, movies, books, text books to learn from history, to prevent it from repeating and humble the youth and elderly of America.
The sensitivity of race, diversity, and differences has to stop. Doesn't anyone else see that censoring our media, and censoring our beliefs is leading towards a much bigger problem? Socialism on the rise with the rate the government is going.
And I for one, do not want socialism in the home of the free. It strips down our rights, our voice, our beliefs all because series of events are allowing the government change our way of life.
If anyone is like me, you want the government out of your business, stop censoring America and start accepting the fact there are bigger and worse problems to deal with. Not an evil child who took the lives of innocent people, or rioting the streets because of injustice.
I want my government to fix the economy, fix or destroy the rise of ISIS, or end abortions for good.
God Bless America.
