It's like a rare discovery. When you're cleaning out the attic, moving stuff around, and then you see it. All dust covered, sitting there, looking like it might be worth something. You approach it, pick it up, blow the dust off of it, and there in your hands is ...
Forgive me Father, for I have sinned. It has been 3 months and 4 days since my last confession. I have neglected the affairs of my home. I have become a hermit to my friends. I have avoided my obligations to the church. I have failed to tithe. I have explored other religions.
Actually, it should read:
Forgive me cyberfans, for I have sinned. It has been 3 months and 4 days since my last post. I have neglected the affairs of my journal. I have become a hermit to my readers. I have avoided my obligations to LiveJournal. I have failed to pay my subscription fee. I have explored other blogging methods.
Fortunately, it can all be forgiven with a post...and 600 'Hail Mary's...or is that Bloody Marys? I always get the two confused.
Life has been treating me excessively well over the past three months. My girlfriend and I are very happy, and are approaching our two-month anniversary. I am finally an active member in my fraternity (Tau Kappa Epsilon), and was elected secretary for the 2005-2006 year. I just received my grades for the spring semester - a B- in Abstract Algebra and a B- in Computational Physics. The Abstract Algebra grade could have been higher - I started slacking after spring break, and didn't do 4 homework assignments. The Computational Physics grade is a blessing. I went to that class on the first day, and never returned. The professor called me on Thursday of finals week and told me to hand in all the work on Monday. There were 23 computer projects assigned. I turned in 16 of them on Monday. I did ALL of those in four days and earned myself a B-. I'll take it and run, especially since I had planned on getting a NA on my transcript (for non-attendance - meaning no credit given, but it doesn't count as an F).
All in all I can't complain. Well, I guess I can. I moved home for the summer, and I remember why I was eager to get out of the house in the first place. It's nice not having to pay rent, but not being able to have my girlfriend sleep over really sucks. I can't wait until I find a summer job, get the income coming in, and save up enough scratch to move into the fraternity house.
Now that I am no longer a resident assistant, I have PLENTY of time to myself. I'm sure I'll be posting a lot more now.
The most recent addiction of mine, however, and one that eats up A LOT of time, is Guild Wars. GW is one of the best MMORPG games I have ever seen. It may not be as big as UO and EverCrack were, but it HAS NO MONTHLY FEE. $50 gets you a lifetime of online play. Check it out -
