First Post - Alpha Wun, Over

[gi_stretch]

Alright, 1st post here in the log book. Last week was interesting, a week of losses to say the least. I lost my roomate, my girlfriend, and 4 wisdom teeth. Id say the last of those hurt the worst. The roomate thing, well I only talked to the guy a couple of times on the phone, I didn't really know him, so i guess they'll assign me another cadet to room with. The girlfriend, Rachel, well I saw, rather fealt this one coming on the front side of a "2 week break", so it wasn't as bad as being suddenly dumped. She said 2 months was too long to date for her, and she wanted out. It was fun while it lasted, but honestly its probably better I'm going into college without a chain leading all the way back home. It's weird after you break up with someone how you can wake up in the middle of the night and flashback to a moment in time with them, it seeming as real as when it really happened,  well knowing you'll probably never see that person again. There's a line in the song Night Moves by Bob Seger I'll post at the bottom, it sums up what I'm trying to say. I'm just ready to get the hell out of this house, and for my jaw to quit swelling from having these teeth pulled. ugh. I bet by next weekend I can finally eat some chips and salsa, its been driving me nuts. I spent about 2 days looking like the god father, but now its finally gone down to almost nothing. The week did have one high point, I passed the AP English exam and thus tested out of freshman english.  Its midnight, I'm gonna say my prayers and hit the sack.

"I awoke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off I sat and wondered
Started humming a song from 1962
Ain’t it funny how the night moves
When you just don’t seem to have as much to lose
Strange how the night moves
With autumn closing in.............."
