(no subject)
Hey! I decided to post before I go to my first class as a way of keeping in touch with the past, as I begin a new year.
Econ, Math, and Stat. Not a very glamorous class load, but its mine and I'll do a good job (4.0 them all!) Next quarter's load will be a lot more fun. Well, Econ will be pretty sweet this quarter. Ive got to leave for that class soon. I did good enough last year, and this year will be much better because I wont have chem to lower my GPA (it didnt by much but everything else was near perfect)
Shaun Alexander being injured is sad, really really sad. Honestly though, it doesnt matter much because our line cant do a good job for a run game. If Hutchinson was still here, he probably wouldnt be injured, but if he was it would matter a lot more. As it stands now, our offense is a pass-oriented one, which is scary because against a tough D (like... oh, say Chicago, our week 4 opponent) they'll get burned unless they can be perfect and get some breaks.
Living on campus is great. The appt is a bit noisy at times, but its much better than having to commute and its a place to myself. Ive lived in my bedroom since I was 1 year old, so any place is going to seem awkward and strange for a while.
Its cool having my brother here. We're spending more quality time together than we used to, now that we're here.
I love Sarah Caley. She's the most wonderful girl in the whole world.
Ahh, Sophmore year. One year removed from high school, almost two years removed from high school football. As it stands now, the football part of high school mattered more than all the rest of it. Two years...
I wonder if this year will be as epic and defining as last year. Fall was the move-away, and I studied more in that quarter than most everyone probably does in a year. Winter began the realization of financial problems, I took chem and an upper level history class, and Spring was all about Sarah, and yeah... I took 19 credits too. Each quarter helped more me along for the better. I went from a history major, to a pre-med student, to an econ major, and I got very good grades in all my classes but Chem 152, and I still did pretty damn good for the kind of class it was. This year seems less of a mystery and more of a process of going through things one at a time to reach goals. Yeah, things might change, but I dont see anything like last year's changes on the horizon. A year from now, I'll likely feel much the same, but I'll have more corses under my belt and hopefully a few more friends. The challenge no longer is finding what Im able to do through finding myself, but it is using what I accomplished last year to get through a series of goals I've laid out for myself this year. The challenge seems like it has an intertemporal dimension, although I dont understand that fully yet.
LaRouche people are back, so is the sea of humanity, the beautiful Seattle sun, the third floor of OUGL, Portage Bay, not drinking while everyone else does, and the incredibally strong feeling that I am once again moving in a direction with purpose (something that I think is easily lost during the summer) Hooray for college!
I love my girlfriend!
