Game, set, match
Usually, those are the words that a tennis player would use. But, lately I have been aspiring to play chess and think more logically about some of the moves I should make. I've been learning how to play chess for about 2 weeks and I still kind of second guess myself on the moves that I should make on the board. I have played against my roommate twice, she wone one and I did to. The game that I won was great. My roommate ended up protecting my king more than she realized. If only she had moved back one of her pieces then she would of won over me. But moving on, so yea I have been learning how to play chess and its not that bad of a game. Its very interesting trying to pick out moves over your opponet before they make a move, and once they have made those moves to counter that move with one of your own. I have this thing where I don't want to loose any of my pieces, but that's how chess is played. You have to be willing sometimes to scarifice a piece in order to save your big plays for last. I do have to say at least I am playing against someone who not only thinks logically but when he feels threaten turns into an asshole and doesn't go soft on me. I also like that fact that he plays hard ball when it gets down to the wire. Hopefully I'll be able to play against my dad one day if he hasn't forgotten how to play. I really want a Harry Potter chess board. Hopefully when I get a lot of money I'll end up buying the game and then I'll play against my sister, but I don't know if she will have the patience to want to learn.
On a differnt note, tomorrow I will offically be dropping Spanish and looking forward to taking it in the Fall again. I told my aunt about my situation and she basically wants me to get out as fast as I can which I'm trying to do. Akron tuition keeps going up to ridiculous prices and it pisses me off the fact their not giving us anymore money to pay off the expenses. How do you expect college students to survive in an economy with no money. Its bad enough that are parents or grandparents and so on can't help us out, but when are own government can't do that then it leaves the question of why am I here if all I have to look forward to is debt and no job. It scares me to think that way but its the truth, what else can I do or the way I think.
So my sister is coming up for the weekend next week so I am trying to clear my entire schedule of class work so we have the opportunity to hang out and have fun with each other. I'm really excited we get to see Sherlock Holmes in the Akron theatre together and bowl. I think my sister is going to enjoy her weekend at least I hope she does. I need to make sure I go to the store to pick out stuff for are little drink a-thon. Anywho, I took my test for Constitutional Law and I got a C- with a curve so roughly I ended up with a D on the test which surprisingly I wasn't surprised, at least it wasn't a F so I be proud of that. Also we have another paper that's due the following Monday so all next week Ill be writing his paper and the question I picked is an opinion paper which I like writing to. I'll be glad when I get out of this class, I honestly have to say, taking two 400 level classes are very difficult and hard to comprehend around but I guess this is the senior moment and I need to get used to it.
Well class is going to be starting soon so I need to get ready and go, but will keep you posted on things that develop along the way.
