I don't really have anything to write about, but I decided to write an entry anyway. This may be one of those random things that actually comes out cool or I may just delete everything I write.
I just finished watching Forrest Gump. I saw the movie when I was little, maybe 7 or 8, and I took it for what it was: a movie. I didn't understand its significance. I didn't really get it. Watching it now, I do get it. Its a very touching movie. Its weird to think about everything I was missing when I was younger. Its almost as if I need to relive every moment in my life to actually understand the significance of it because I doubt I got it back then. I think I missed so much.
Tomorrow is Labor Day. I don't have to work for the first weekday in 4 weeks. I will probably sleep late, go to the thrift store, and go for a run. I'm tired from working this weekend. I had to wake up at 6 Saturday and Sunday morning to be in Conyers by 7. It was ok though.
I went to the Braves game yesterday with Casey and his dad and step mom. It was fun. The Braves won and Francoeur hit another home run. That guy is pretty good.
Football season has started. C Hill definitely needs some help. They are not looking very promising this season. My nephew's little team is 2-1, and he was named MVP for his game on Saturday. He caused and recovered two fumbles. Notre Dame won yesterday, and Navy lost (I have to root against Navy because I'm planning on going to West Point [Army], and I might play football up there). So that's cool. NFL football starts Thursday, and I am looking forward to spending Sundays at my aunt and uncle's house. I just realized that this will be the last season I get to watch for them for the next 9 years. We haven't even been doing it that long. Maybe 5 years. I think I'm going to miss a lot of things next year. I'm so used to doing certain things at certain times of the year, but my routine will change drastically if and when I go to West Point.
I'm almost done filling out everything for West Point. I'm just waiting for some recommendation letters from certain teachers. I also need to schedule my CFA some time with Ramsey. That's basically all I have left to do besides some interviews for the congressional nomination, but because I got that Letter of Assurance in July, I pretty much get the nomination hands down.
I'm not dating anyone anymore. Before you think I'm going to complain about that, just know that I don't even care. I realized I should stay away from girls because I would want a serious relationship, and after I graduate, I will more than likely not be in this state. So it would just make things hard. Although I kind of wanted to have a date for prom and/or homecoming and be all cliche, I guess that won't be happening. Oh well. I'm just going to party and get drunk for the rest of the year whenever the opportunity arises. There won't be much of that at West Point, and I'm sure I will miss beer.
I guess I had a few things to write about. Although it's not late, I'm kinda tired. I may be going to bed soon.
