I'm so damn bored I'm going to give you an actual update as best I can.
So year one college is almost over. Like Sean, I have lost nearly all my innocence in one year. I have had so much fun my first year of college, and I can't wait to continue my college career. I remember i asked Nick last summer what college was like and he put it like this, "it's like you've never had this fun or been this stressed out all at once." To though who have yet to start college that is definitely the best way I can describe it. All in all the classes in your first year are easy. The problem lies in making yourself go to class and do the work. This semester I have been slacking off and will have anywhere from 0-4 c's. Hopefully more towards the 0 though.
I have been fortunate enough to find a girl that I really connect with. And we have without a doubt had some tough and trying times, but in the long run I really do think it's worth it. If I didn't think it was, I'd like to think I'd have the courage to get up and walk away, but everything happens for a reason , and I really think this can go somewhere, so we'll see how it goes. Most of you know how I feel about her so I'm not going to get into that any further.
One year ago tomorrow was prom, and for all the seniors it will be your prom. If you haven't gone, my advice to you is to just have fun with it. In the long run it's over rated, but if you're in the right state of mind with the right people it can be a lot of fun, and plus just be proud that you look kick ass in your tux or dress, because to this day I really liked the way I looked that day.
The friends I have made here in college have been many, and many of them have been good friends that I can talk to about anything, and they are a lot of fun. Still I miss the friends I made in highschool, namely Trey, Nelson, and Sean just because I remember all the times we had throughout our high school years, and you can't recreate those friendships. Never again will I cry because I'm leaving three of my best friends. Don't get me wrong, the people here are great, and I'm sure these people will be my friends for my college career, be they dorm friends, or all my team mates in ultimate frisbee.
I have gone on my first spontaneous road trip this year with my friend Cory and his girlfriend Sarah. We went to San Antonio to meet up with our friends Matt, Carl, etc etc and that's where Cory and Sarah live. I remeber staying up and talking to Sarah's dad for like seven hours while we watched mighty ducks 2 and 3 and the winter olympics. That is definitely something I will never forget. I have also stayed up countless nights playing mario party until 3 or 4 in the morning. The best part of college is waking up and seeing your friends, and being able to see them whenever as long as you ration it and don't see them too much.
Then there's ultimate frisbee, which besides my time with Casey obviously has been my favorite college memory. I love going to frisbee tournaments because there are 20 guys with amazingly colorful personalities. I only dislike 3 people on the team, and they are so funny that it's fun to talk about them and make fun of them. I have never laughed harder than I have when I go on frisbee road trips. Thus far thanks to frisbee I have gone to Norman, Oklahoma, Santa Barbara, Baton Rouge, Austin twice, and in an hour I leave for Tulsa, then if we do well there, Ohio for the national championship tournament. I can't tell you how glad I am I stayed with this team. I have though about quitting at least twice, but in the long run, these guys are the reason I have such fond memories of my first year in college, however gay that may sound.
So this summer I will be hopefully in two frisbee leagues, team awesome and the UNT club team. I hopefully will also be working full time and hanging out with everyone I can. It should be a great summer.
Next year I am sharing an apartment with my friend Stu from Team Awesome and two other we don't quite know. I will most likely be majoring in english when all is said and done.
So that was a really long update. Marc and jon, enjoy prom and tell me how it goes. i'm eager to know what you all thought of it.
Sorry this shit was so long
