I've been meaning to update for quite a while and I keep getting distracted by one thing or another, and then all the things I have been wanting to write about become too much of a burden to write about.
So as a really really quick ditty about what has been going on lately, life is fantastic. I wake up every day smiling and that doesn't seem to really fade as the day goes on.
Spring break was great, lots of fun, school is going well, my grades are great even though I have completely given up at this point. I have mentally checked out and I find it harder and harder to get myself to class, and while I'm there I usually want to leave, and often times I do. However, I am graduating in 3 weeks and I'm still passing my classes, I may actually make the Dean's list if I continue to do well on my exams.
I have no clue what the future has in store for me, although I find myself caring less and less at the moment, I am really enjoying my last few weeks as a student. While I may not be spending that time being studious, I love being on campus and I love partying with my friends. Being on campus has recently gotten much cooler since I have been bringing my cd player with me and start singing along to the Beatles as people look and laugh as I pass them by.
My fraternity just had our formal in Laughlin this last weekend, it was so much fun. The 4 formals I have been to have been some of the best weekends of my life. It was a fun and crazy haze of a drunken stumble and I loved every minute of it. I went with Beth, and as always, we had a great time together, I again have no clue where that lies, but I don't give a fuck anymore, I'm too happy in general to be bothered by potentially stressful situations. It's just fun, she's cool and is able to connect with me like none of the other girls I have tried hanging out with.
I went to a men's baseball tryout a few weeks back with my friend, Brandon from work. It was one of the best days I have had in years. I can't believe it took me so long to get back out on the diamond. After all the drills and batting practice I got to toss some pitches. WOW! It felt awesome, once the first pitch flew out of my hand, I wanted to throw all day. I was really firing considering I hadn't thrown a pitch in about 5 years. I was in the upper 70's and if I get my arm strength back up I can be in the 80's soon. We stayed after to see if we'd get picked up by a team, and I was actually the second pick in the draft and then my coach picked Brandon with the next pick, which was sweet, because we only wanted to play if we'd be on the same team. So I am so excited about this, we have our first game 2 Sunday's from now, and we practice this coming Sunday. This is a missing piece of my puzzle that has been lacking for way too long.
Work is going great, I'm happy as hell there. I finally realized that I need my job at the moment because in order to keep my laid back attitude I need to release all my energy, and work is a great way to do that. I've been wanting to update a few times of all the bullshit at work and write about my supervisors incompetence, but I usually get so fed up I end up too drunk to want to write anything anyway. But tomorrow we get to have a focus meeting and I want to work on a list of all the reasons management and UPS in general suck. I am really excited to tell our head manager what I really think about him in a situation in which he asks me how I feel. I know that just like every other time that I make a suggestion or a complaint nothing will get done about anything I say, but I will feel better knowing that at least my voice was heard. But that's why I have my music, I just delve into that when I get upset about the bullshit there and I feel great again.
There's probably plenty plenty more that has been going on, but at least I was able to squeeze and update in.
