So I'm currently on a bus on my way to north carolina. I'm not on vacation, rather I'm on a trip for myself. I didn't pay for the bus. I didn't pay for the hotel room, and I didn't pay for the food. All of it is being paid for by TAPPI who gets their money from companies. These companies give the money to TAPPI to take care of me and a bunch of ( Read more... )

"There's one main difference between the winners and losers in this life. Winners know exactly what they want to accomplish, and will set their sites on this goal, and will focus on it obsessively until it is reached. They will set their bullshit to the side, do what it takes, and never give up. They do not concern themselves with the shit talk, ( Read more... )

Stoked that all of my basic courses are out of the way, but sad that I'll never take another mathematics course again.

It's pretty incredible how much you can change in a year. Since moving out of my mom's house last august and going to ESF for a year, I've become a completely different person. Don't get me wrong LJ land, I'm still me, but I've matured quite a bit. When it comes to doing things around the house, I no longer put it off and ignore it. I just get ( Read more... )

Woah. I woke up at 5 in the god damn morning. I gotta say, screw that. I feel compelled to update even though there's nothing incredibly interesting going on in my life. Been partially kicking ass in school, with the occasional expected hiccup. Today is going to be a long one, with M&E Balance, O-Chem, and P-Chem lectures all in one day, plus a BPE ( Read more... )

What would I do if the Bruggers down the street from me didn't have wifi? The place is abnormally backed, I'm guessing due to the football game today. Anyway, this week was pretty good. Nothing to specific happened. Nick came over at one point after a show at the Lost. I shared a Yueng Ling and we watched the DVD for the Acacia Strain. Every bit of ( Read more... )

Life is great again. I managed to get into E.S.F., so I'm working on my engineering degree there. I'm also living on my own is a pretty decent apartment and working a few hours on the side at Chipotle. So things are pretty good to say the least. Expect much more updating and narcissistic rambling on here because life is good. Now time to watch ( Read more... )

...and all it took was a half a bottle of American Honey whiskey for me to realize how miserable and dissatisfied with myself I've become. Well, it's been that way for quite some time now, but maybe I'm snapping out of the denial again. Or maybe everyone hates their lives and themselves and all their short comings but hides it well... but in that ( Read more... )

I can't stand being around Syracuse anymore. And I have far bigger reasons than most people who say that.
