(no subject)
Ok so this marks the my first month in college. It feels like I've been living here for so much longer than that. I'm not sure if that's a good thing either. I'm having a blast, but at the same time still feel kinda weird about it. The few times I think about home are the times I really miss it. So I try to limit those moments to once or twice a week.
My roommate says I've been sleeping a lot and lately that's true. I've been taking naps that range from 2 to 5 hours most days. Luckily today was just a 2 hour nap so I won't miss my workout like yesterday. I've already gained the freshman fifteen, to the best of my knowledge. I'll try to weigh myself when I'm at the gym. If I have, I will have finally broken 150 lbs. I'm starting to get tired of the food already and have resorted to eating in my room (or not eating) more often. I went to breakfast for the first time today and it was kick ass. Might have to only go to breakfast from now on. I've been making an effort to start getting bigger by going to the gym a lot more than I ever have before, but I should probably find the time to go running as well, so I can thin out the bad stuff too.
PE class (once it actually turns into PE class) will help with that. I'm taking swimming conditioning. Unfortunately the first five weeks is a lecture class. We should be done with that soon enough though. I have two papers to write now. One due Monday and I can't really start it until Friday because our TA hasn't given out our first papers yet. I would like to look over my first paper and see what I need to do before writing this second one. My other is a five pager about anything aeronautical. As far as I can tell. But I have to do it and that's the biggest roadblock. It's due on the 25th. Other than that classes have been rather easy. Nothing incredibly stimulating going on here, and with exception to aforementioned papers, just reading for homework. A lot of reading. College is pretty much reading. I can't wait for intramural soccer to start so I'll have something in the way of a schedule forming instead of freeroaming and sleeping.
The girl scene has been ok up here. I was hyped up about it because of the girl:guy ratio, but haven't been very impressed. A lot of the girls around here seem to be heavily accented and a lot of them are fat. I cannot stand anything that sounds redneck. I just prefer northerners I guess. Or Charlotteans. We tend not to have accents. Being single here is straight. I don't mind it. My roommate is not however and his long term girlfriend is over here a lot. I'm not sure what I think about her. She's rather clingy to him and that can be very annoying. She's the very girly type of clingy too...anyone who knows what I'm talking about should've just cringed.
I'm hoping to return home in the next two weeks now. East's homecoming game is about then. I would like to come out and support them and to see and talk to our principal, Mark Nixon. I hope he's doing ok.
Matt, Nate, Jack, and I have taken to a high volume of pranking in our hallway. Apparently leaving a brick under our RA's pillow was crossing his line. He's not a very sociable person and I'm trying to get him to loosen up and quit being so annoyingly uptight and by the book. He wrote up a formal notice to the community director when we stole the shower handles one morning. He doesn't know it was us, but just that he did makes him way too uptight. That means that, as of now, we can't unhinge the bathroom stalls. He seems to have a VERY big issue about the university furniture being used in pranks. Go figure. Nate and I also shot a roman candle out of the study room window. That was probably the stupidest thing we've done so far. We needed to test the range on those things. They're seven shot candles, but only have maybe a 30 foot range. Good enough for a Harry Potter Wand Duel. That sounds like a terrific idea.
Well since I never update this anymore, I expect some feedback outta you guys. Sio and Kellwa especially since you two are the two I talk to the most on here. And anyone is allowed to give suggestions for pranks. We're just getting warmed up. We still don't know half the hall (it's a long hall) and we need to get all of them involved. Maybe prank another dorm. That'd be cool.
Well, peace people.
