Wasted Time

Today was another football game, this time versus Illinois. Last night I stayed up until 1 a.m. so I slept in this morning, not getting up until 10. Since the game started at noon, we left at quarter to 11 to make sure we were there on time. Although I didn't think we would get there early, we got the best seats we have ever had. We were in the ninth row, a vast improvement on the 19th, 34th, 37th, and 39th rows; and we had gotten there pretty early for some of the other games.

The first half totally sucked. We played crappy and didn't make any good plays. During the second half we totally turned it around though. Mostly due to our defense, we were able to end up with a score of 26 to 12. Another reason we won was because their offense wasn't any better than ours. Had it been, we definitely would have lost. We even managed to get a safety; that was pretty cool.

The day has turned out fairly well. Although I haven't done any homework or laundry, I don't feel pressured to do anything because there is no class tomorrow. This is probably not a good position to take on the matter but I see no reason that I shouldn't have at least one day a week in which I accomplish nothing. Well, as it seems it has taken me several hours to write this blog, (I started writing at around 5 and kept getting distracted) I think it's time I wrap it up and get to bed. Homework can wait til tomorrow.

It's healthy to set aside one day per week for absolutely nothing. You're not allowed to do anything physically or mentally strenuous. It probably helps keep stress levels down - as long as you're not stressing about not getting anything done. Never stress over that.
