Demons of various sorts conspire against a measuring device.

Classes began today. Engineering Fundamentals Lecture has a roster with more than five hundred students. Honors Chemistry has thirty-four students. Precalculus is going to be the easiest class I have ever taken.

I have only been this scared once in my life (July 22, 2004).

Rain fell in torrents endlessly from Charleston to Knoxville. It delayed us over an hour because it was frequently heavy enough to blind us.

I am enjoying myself so far.

There is so much I miss about home, but there is still so much here that I want to do. So many mixed emotions are tearing me apart.

I miss you.

Today was my last day at Hollister. Tomorrow is the last day at Journeys.

I wish this summer would never end. There are days that I wish I could replay over and over again just to stay at ease.

I don't want to move on because I am happy where I am.

I clocked thirteen and one half hours today.

Bethany brought me cookies.

I saw snoop dogg outside of the Municipal Auditorium.

Having no idea where my keys are I rush up to Chloe's realizing we're running late (also thinking, That's cool) and Lauren Hynde opens the door and we stare at each other blankly until I say "You look... wonderful tonight" and she suddenly looks like she's shot through with something like pain or maybe something else like maybe something by Versace ( Read more... )

Thursday, Bethany and I drove to Cedar Point, where we road the world's tallest and faster rollercoaster, Top Thrill Dragster. It goes zero to one hundred and twenty miles per hour in four seconds and takes you four hundred and twenty feet in the air straight up and straight down.

My car will be finished tomorrow.

My hands smell like gasoline.

I leave tomorrow at three post meridiem for Cleveland, Ohio.

Thursday is Cedar Point.
Friday is Warped Tour.
Sunday I come home.
Four to five days with Bethany.

I saw Brian and Natalie at the mall today. Bethany came to visit me between jobs.

That is just pathetic.

Brace for reality, disillusionment, and despair.

You are going to get hit hard.
