It's been a while since I've posted so I figured that I might as well give you guys and gals an update about what's been going on.
So this week was pretty much a hell week for me. It made me wanna shoot myself in the face before it even happened.
I originally had 2 exams scheduled for Wednesday, a Calc. II exam and a Linear Algebra exam. I got the Calculus exam moved to Thursday which drew out my week to an even longer more hellish time.
On Monday I barely had time for myself, in that I went to class all day, and was busy working on homework all night. There was a freakin' blizzard on Monday too!! I'm talking intense snow people. It was crazy. They canceled school for the high schoolers and what not, but the Tech students still had school. I could barely walk and I must have fallen down from the hidden ice patches and strong wind currents like 3-4 times. Oh well… Tuesday consisted of studying my ASS off for Linear Algebra and working on Enterprise and my Program for Object Oriented Design. The rest of the week was a blur and the work was pretty much non-stop till Friday night.
All together combined with this weekend I had 2 exams, 3 research projects, 2 programs to write, a book to read, and a presentation to give. I still have to read the book and write a program, but at least I got most of the shit outta the way. I managed to knock out one of the research papers on Saturday.
Oh yeah… I saw V for Vendetta this weekend. It was pretty damn sweet, a monstrosity of a combination between 1984 and Equilibrium. It was futuristic and old school at the same time. I loved it. Agent Smith = V. The man has a way with words.
So it's Sunday now and I have a few more things to attend to before I can truly relax for an hour or two. I have another exam on Tuesday next week. It has to do with Recursion. Wish me luck. I think that I'll need it this time around.
~Jackson… out!

Without Regret
I ponder my potential while walking to class on yet another meaningless Monday morning
Looking back as I stare into the nothingness
I'll find that it could have been more exciting and it could have been more boring…
This life I've lead, the trail I blaze, the blood I've bled
I do not regret the path that I've chose for it carves the stone that I am:
Much like the cracked pavement beneath my frozen feet, I crumble under the still weight of the world
I'm weathered, but I hold my own
Watch this blizzard consume my sanity
The waste-high drifts give me the opportunity to once again forge my own path
As they eat me alive I carve into them like a knife
I refuse to let these jet streams hinder my performance like the insecure thoughts that I constantly think
