Is it perhaps time for a real lj entry? I think it might be.
One of the reasons I haven't posted an entry in a long time is that my life seriously is boring. I work a little bit, and go to school. I spent my entire spring break in Ames because I was scheduled to work a grand total of 14 hours. It hardly seems worth it in retrospect. But, money is always a good thing.
I'm working with a non-profit organization called Pages of Promise now, and that's going to be taking up a lot of my time coming up here. The group collects new and used books, mainly college texts, and ships them to schools in Africa that need them. If you have any old books you want to donate, give me a heads up and I'll make sure they go to a good cause. And if any of you are feeling rich, you could donate money too, because I have no idea how we're going to pay for the shipping this semester. Our bank account is empty and our fundraising plans fell through :( Oh well, I'm sure I'll figure out something. That's what credit cards are for, right?
Speaking of credit cards, I'm the absolute worst person at managing money. I am the last person who should have a credit card. I've only had one for 3 months, and I already missed a payment. Oops!
I'm still dating Katelyn and I couldn't be happier about that. We had a little bit of a rocky patch a few weeks ago, but we sorted out the problems, and things are great. I don't think I've ever been this happy or satisfied with a relationship.
And on that same note, growing up scares the crap out of me. I could easily graduate college now, but I'm going to stick around for another two semesters anyway. Because once I graduate, I have to start planning for the rest of my life. Law school maybe? A real job? A...GASP.....family? Yikes. Oh well, I suppose that kind of thing is inevitable. I just kind of hate being stuck in this limbo where I'm not still a kid, but I'm definitely not an adult. Maybe I should just get it over with?
In much less serious news, I just found out I can get some tickets to a cigar convention on April 18th. I'm psyched about spending a night hanging out with a bunch of rich old men trying to get away from their families for a night and a bunch of people that work in the tobacco industry. No seriously, I can't wait. I love that bullshit. Plus, I get to speak spanish to all the cubans.
Ok. That's it.
Love,
Craig
