Exciting Times!
Well, for my standards, anyway.
I've sort of come to the realisation that I am, indeed, a senior and should probably start applying to colleges. Which is a bit Not Fun, for I bloody well don't know when I lead a group or team through a challenging situation.
I've decided to apply to practically every college in San Diego, for to stay close to the Maritime Museum. And I'm even applying to the Coast Guard Academy. Which is rather shocking. I'm still not entirely sure if I actually want to go there (though my parents are all for it, seeing as the government pays for my tuition), but I figured I might as well apply. The bad part is the physical fitness exam that I have to go through just to apply (and again once I get there for 'Swab Summer'). I've never actually done any sports and am rather lazy. But, I'm willing to try. I just need to find the time now to actually get in shape.
In other news, Crew is being fun, for we are sail training on Surprise. We'll get to go out for a practice sail next week, so that should be jolly spiffing. =D Today Swanny brought his new dachshund puppy, Fritz, to get him used to large crowds of people. It's endlessly amusing to see manly sailor men fawning over a puppy. xD
And in that Doctor Who news.
I'm really not bothered. At all. Waaay too many people are too angry/sad/emo about it to be a part of this fandom. Seriously.
