Well, it's a lazy Thursday afternoon, so I decided to update my LJ. Let's see, college is still going well. Fall break was great. I headed to Beaufort for the weekend and got to spend some quality time with Caroline. It was fun. We went swimming in the ocean for a grand ten seconds before we realized it was too cold and just relaxed in Beaufort. I headed back to Hartsville for a couple of days with the family. I voted in my first presidential election over fall break!!!! It was so exciting. The election official got kind of hostile when I questioned why the electronic voting machines had no print out record. I mean, if they order a recount, there's no way to verify my vote, and that bugs me a lot. Oh well, I'll write a letter to the election board. I'm a big fan of letter writing now. I guess that's kind of weird.
I got back to school Tuesday night and realized I had 200+ pages of reading that I ignored over fall break. That was fun. I didn't get to go to the Cake concert because I had missed too many badminton homework sessions, and I didn't want to miss the debate. So, I rushed back to the room to watch the debate. I had already cast my vote, but it was still awesome to see John Kerry kick some butt. I thought Bush did a decent job too. While I'm on a politics, Georgia has this psycho proposed amendment to strip away all rights to homosexual couples that's rediculous. I would just throw that in.
Today, I just had badminton class, and we had our midterm exam today. It only took about thirty minutes, and then I headed back to the room for a little more sleep and relaxation. Now, I'm just sitting here avoiding a butt load of reading ad my religion paper. College is a rediculous amount of work. In less than two days, I will be jumping out on airplane at 14,000 feet and hurtling toward the ground at 120 mph. I can't believe I'm going to go skydiving. I'll make sure to post pictures. I'm getting the film guy to go up and jump with me to take pictures and a video. I figure I might as well since I'll most likely only go once. So, yeah, if I don't make it, you guys are great! I hope everyone's going well.
