A Post
So, the semester is in full swing now. How do I know this? Papers due, in our what, 4th week of classes? Maybe three. They all run together now. I am definitely ready to graduate. I feel I am in the home stretch, and boy do I have a bad case of senioritis. I only have 4 classes, and I am procrastinating like nobody's business. I mean, I always have been a procrastinator, that is just my nature. But this is bad. I have a couple papers already due, and have done practically no work on them. I would have more done on my one, and probably would be doing some work on it right now, but earlier in class today my professor extended the due date, which just really extends my procrastination period. It is awesome.
Side Note: I noticed my life having a serious Metallica shortage in my listening. I think this is due to I have not had an FM transmitter for my MP3 player for quite some time now, and I have been relying on the radio and CDs in my Jeep. But the day I realize the lack of Metallica, I see that they have released a new album like this past week and, the single, is not too bad. It is infinitely better than anything on St. Anger, and in the single they appear to have gone back to some of their classic stylings. Like, I actually heard Kirk do a guitar solo in this song. Not only that, but he shreds it up pretty good. The song also just has a feeling of some of their older stuff, with new stuff mixed in, and it is politically motivated using the war to get their message across. But yeah, it is not too bad. I think they try to have it very One-esque a little too much, but again, infinitely better than St. Anger. And after having listened to it a couple times, it definitely has started to seem a little better and better. So, anyone who wants to, have a listen and judge for yourself, Metallica fan or not. The video is okay, but the song is the important part.
I would think that being a full time student, working on the weekends at the Getgo car wash, and working during the week when I do not have school at Aflac, I would be burnt out pretty fast. Really, I am handling all of this quite nicely. I will admit, I am pretty good at handling the stresses of school and work related activities quite splendidly. I do not think I have ever been overwhelmed or too worried about anything school related. And until my job at Aflac, I really did not have a good job to screw stuff up, so no real stress there. Speaking of Aflac, just would like to say it is going quite well now, things have really picked up and I have made more than enough to recoup all my finances I lost during the move/period where I was making no money at all with Aflac. And I have some very nice things coming up at the end of September, so I am glad that I definitely stuck around. We will see how it continues to play out.
I want Steph here.
