Hmmm...
I have a half hour to kill.
...What the hell. May as well.
So as you can see, I'm updating. I don't suppose there's much to update ON, since my life can generally be easily catagorized as "uninteresting" or "repeatitive", BUT I'm bored and have nothing else to do so here we are.
Sorry to all my LJ friends. *shrugs* I just don't use this application all that much these days to be honest. Even in those rare instances when I HAVE time.
So, let's see...
Christmas and the break it was encased in was awesome. I had to work during the break, but as a flips side I made a good amount of money, which is particularly important now because I really need it and won't be making as much now that I'm back in school. I got a lot of really cool stuff as well, though some of it has yet to arrive...
-Dan gave me Monster on DVD (which is one of the few anime I still enjoy)
-I got three CDs. Comatose by Skillet, The Best of Carlos Santana and 1 by The Beatles.
-I got a crap load of games. Mario Galaxy, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, NiGHTS, Sonic Rush Adventure, Soulcalibur Legends, Street Fighter Alpha Anthology (given to me by Mark) and Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles.
-Hueber gave me a $25 for Gamestop, which I have used to get One Piece: Unlimited Adventure
-I got the two latest Vampire Hunter D novels, along with the first manga adaptaion and a really cool book which gives a timeline through Biblical History.
-I got socks and boxers...which I asked for partially in jest, but also really needed. (As always, it seems...)
-I got a Wii Points card.
-A half hour massage, along with beer (which I traded for a Snapple) and some assorted candies in my stocking.
-MTV's Downtown on DVD (haven't gotten it yet though).
So, in a spiritual and physical way (as well as just quality time with my family) it was a great Christmas.
Last week I went down to Tucson to visit my friends. I didn't get to see them all sadly, but of course school had started and they all had their own lives to worry about. I did spend the week with Stefanie, which was great, but also got to see Aaron, Hueber, Pat, Sam, Anne and Laura, as well as some of my old co-workers. I was a little hesitant about going down initially, but it turns out aside from my lack of a cell-phone and the UA being the closest thing to a Nazi-regime, my trip down there was well worth the money. Plus, I made up for the trip in one paycheck.
I can't really say I did a lot. I played a lot of Wii with my friends and watched a lot of movies, though I did hit the gym and go out to eat a lot. Personally, I'm prefectly fine with that. That's the sort of thing I'd typically do on a vacation anyway (unless it was to go to amusement parks or the beach, or if I was camping of course). And much to my surprise, Stef's dorm was relatively quiet the whole week, except on Saturday night. But I suppose it works out well, since I apparently woke Stef up twice when I "screamed" in my sleep one evening.
...Disturbing I know.
Anyway, so now I'm back at school. It's only my third day back. So far I am enjoying (or at least tolerating well) all of my classes, but my Capstone class (JTC 450 Public Relations Cases) has me scared shitless. It just seems very intimidating and is a lot of work. It seems I'll be "interning" with my folks and making publicity for their Quiznos, which is good at least, but the course as a whole still makes me nervous.
I think that's all I wanted to talk about. Even if not, I gotta be going to class, so I suppose it'll have to be.
Take care everyone!
