Home at last!

Yes, I am home on Christmas break. It has already been depleted in length by a week in which I have been doing more work than I had originally intended. You know at college I get to sleep whenever I please and have not gotten up at 6:00 a.m. since the last time I was home at Thanksgiving break. Being roused at this time in the morning is not something I enjoy. I am definitely not a morning person! Not that I'm really a night owl either, but college has been making me lean more and more towards this lifestyle; however despising it might be. I was able to get a five hour nap in one day though. I just went upstairs when no one was looking and you know the old saying out of sight out of mind. I have also been having some very strange dreams since I have been home. (I like strange dreams). I think it would be nice to stay home forever but I suppose I will go back to school despite my disgust with the whole secondary education crap. You can't live with it and you can't live without it you know. I just hope that eight years flies by so quickly that I don't even notice I have wasted so much of my life. I just hope it's worth it when I'm done. If I just suffer through maybe I will enjoy the rest of my life a little more than the first eighteen years. Sorry to be so depressing. I'll cheer up now. Make sure to have a Happy New Year!

How to be an idiot

I want to reveal to you how easy it really is to be an idiot. It takes virtually no skill, but it does require a blatant lack of self respect. If you fall into this category of people, you are well on your way to realizing your utmost dream of becoming an idiot. The next step you should take is finding a lot of controversial subjects and taking a bold stand as to what you believe on the matter. Even if you don't really give a hoot, make sure you come up with a few ideas. Then you should make sure you can say something on any other subject that may come up in a conversation. The last, and one of the most important steps, is making sure nothing you say actually makes sense. You wouldn't want anyone to mistake you for a genius now would you? Have a good day, and good luck in your quest to become an idiot!

Finals!!!

Do you get excited when you hear the word finals? I do. I tend not to think anything about the exams themselves, but to rather think about the three weeks of vacation that await me when I finish my last one, next Thursday afternoon. I can't wait 'til Christmas, it just creeps ever closer day by day. Too bad that once it's here it doesn't last real long. A day seems to fly by so fast when you're having a good time.

I think I'm going crazy!

Oh wait, I'm already there.

Out of the Clear Blue

This morning I got out of math class about five minutes early, which is okay, but I usually like to say hi to some friends that walk by when I would normally get out of class. So I decided to walk real slowly back to my building in chance that I might still pass them. Consequently I was very cold and my teeth were chattering. I probably wasn't smiling either and probably looked depressed. Anyways, this random guy walking down the sidewalk tells me "Don't worry, the semester's almost over." It was so strange and I laughed for like the next five minutes. And I never did see my friends. But it was worth the chill just to hear that guys comment.

What is this crap?

So they say they want you do do good in school and to study hard and everything, but does the school really care about what you find important? Not in the least. In fact they like to take up your time with ridiculous polls, housing contracts, and making you change passwords. I suppose there is some purpose but I find it a huge waste of my time. I would rather be sleeping or looking up some strange thing, spending my time how I see fit. I suppose changing your password annually is probably a good thing, but it really has no significance to me seeing that I don't care if someone wants to go through my mail or log on to all the crappy places I can get to with the password. Besides since I use the same password for a few different places it means that I now have to remember two different ones. I guess my mind can handle the extra challenge, but it really should be a choice rather than mandatory. I mean, if someone wants to steal my identity, why not let them, then they can pay all my college bills while I go change my identity. Well, I suppose I shouldn't complain to much, but it seems as if you don't really have control over your own life.

Sunday: a day of rest?

I didn't get up real early this morning, but I went to church and got back around eleven. Then I just kind of moped around most of the day. I did copy the answers for my math homework out of the answer book, but that's about as much as I got around to. I just felt like sleeping, but just when I was about to fall asleep it was time to go to lunch and I never got back to that state of mind again today, though I don't think I ever fully woke up. The worst problem is that I didn't do anything yesterday either. This means that I am falling behind on my assignments. It's probably a good thing there aren't too many things that I can put off for to long, regular classes ending the 15th and all. I'm so tired of work, I hate life mostly for the reason that it is a neverending stream of work, work, work, and will never change from this pattern. Oh well, I guess that's life.

What to do on a day like this

I didn't have any homework due today, so I'm not really doing much, but I was starting to think about Christmas presents. I'm not sure how much I really want to spend, but I really want to get something nice for everyone. This requires a lot more indepth thought than if I was just getting presents for the sake of getting them presents. I was thinking about getting just one big present for my entire family, but I can't think of something that everyone could appreciate and use. If you have any advice feel free to send me an email. It would be very useful. Plus I want to get some inexpensive but worthwhile gifts for a few girls that I'm friends with in my hall. I don't posess a lot of creativity so my gifts tend to be kind of bland. I'm hoping that I can figure this all out before finals week because I don't want to be running around trying to find presents when I should be studying for finals (Although, I think it would be a lot more fun).
