So it has been a while since I've updated this thing huh? I'm not really sure how many people use this anymore but what the hell, I'm going to pick it back up. I spent the last couple days going through my old entries even back to freshman year at MU and holy shit some of those entries shocked me now looking back on them. If people didn't know me they would think I was skitzo one minute I'm happy and the next I'm mad at the world. But that's not the case as you all know lol. Just some really interesting stuff to read and brought back a lot of memories, both good and bad from the last few years in elmwood and in the hotel, and even some in Pier Village. Who can ever forget hallway whiffleball in elmwood, singing in the hallway (Brian), shower power, random food trips, and a whole lot more freshman year. Then sophomore year was equally as insane if not more, between my low grades, female bullshit (some good though), then all the DD trips (seriously we single-handedly kept that place in business), then all of the drunken adventures in the hotel that will never be forgotten (and some never remembered LOL). Then to Pier Village, the nice-ass apartments right on the beach where we spent the whole summer last year doing just that, along with some parties and a lot of baseball. Then this year was more about schoolwork than anything else for me, there really weren't that many parties (until late in the year) because it was hard to go out and drink because we had to drive back to pier, and nobody could stay at pier because of the parking restrictions but we managed. Lots of memories, both good and bad, but I wouldn't change any of it.
Well now Junior year is over, and since I don't need to take summer classes this year it is really over with until September. It was a very interesting year to say the least. Ended up getting a 3.7 gpa in the fall semester, and a 3.23 in the spring because the fucking computer class dicked me over with a C, otherwise I would have rolled out with another 3.7. Also me and Conte became more like brothers (fucker broke my bed, in the most NON-homosexual way possible), because real good friends with Sam, me and Brian were cool, then things got a bit wierd, then now we're cool so thats good, got to see some of the people on campus a bit more in the spring which was cool (Kait most notably), and the Fearsome Foursome was formed (me, Jeff, Matt, Hilary) and we will be at a house on 2nd Avenue for senior year. I joined Golds Gym when it opened and that has been the best thing I have done this year, very worth the money. I'm also very excited about Camp coming up, I met the crew for this summer and they're pretty cool, won't be another Carol situation which I'm thrilled about. Also my stats professor is awesome as he gave us 100 extra credit points for going to this math conference/competition thing in Lakewood in April, so a bunch of us got up at 7am and got down there madd early, it lasted till 4, then he took us all out for dinner at a steakhouse which was fun, Krystle kept making fun of me for how much I can eat, even my professor asked me if I wanted to eat the plate too lol. He also was moving to Canada so he gave away a lot of his furniture to us so we took various trips there to get a lot of stuff. Came out with a couch, kitchen table, lamps, 2 dressers, 2 nightstands, tv, dvd player, storage bins, various pots and pans, even some bottles of wine, among other things as well. Good times.
But I have definitely grown from the past few years, obviously. I just let things roll off my back now, and appreciate what I have, as you just never know what happens. It is going to be my goal to spend as much time with my friends this summer as possible, becuase guys and girls this is it, our last year in college (well and then a half for some of us). This is the time to kick back and relax and enjoy our time. Stef's journal last week about how time flies hit home with me. It really is amazing. I was laying in bed the other night thinking about all the stuff I had to do before I drove up to Boston (all the things in the house that needed to be taken care of before we left) and I miss the days where we had no reponsibility. I want to be a kid again where I come home from school, run off the bus, throw my bag down, and play hockey in the street with the other kids until it is dark out or someone's Mom yells for dinner. Now we have so much reponsibilty and then in a few years we will have families, and kids, and our own houses, and full-time jobs with all those responsibilities and it really is scary to be honest with you.
Well I gotta hit the bed soon, as tomorrow me and my Mom are going to take care of a lot of errands: new glasses, shitcast to drop off the modem, then going to Golds Gym to work out and then freeze the membership for the summer as I won't be there until september, and then go to the mall to get some clothes and stuff. So thanks for reading and have a good night.
Take care everyone <333
