Ready to die...
Now I know the true meaning of Dead Week. It's not that classes are dead. It means that you will feel dead from the work you've been forced to complete in this last week of classes. Add in my innate procrastination, and it's a recipe for exhaustion. My schedule from this week ( Read more... ) -
Of Slacking & Uncertainty
Well, I guess it's fitting that I update at the end of the semester (almost) seeing as how the last time I wrote on here was the beginning of the semester. What spurred this update? Perhaps it's that I missed writing my life down so I could read it later and remember the events of my youth. Perhaps it's that I missed being in whatever slight ( Read more... ) -
Back Home Again (Purdue Home, that is)
Classes start in under 12 hours. My schedule's pretty nice. I start at either 8:30 or 9:30 and go straight to 12:30. Then I'm off until band ( Read more... ) -

Last evening, I went golfing with the roommates and Funk. It was my first time ever on an actual course, and I've only been to the driving range twice. That said, I didn't do too badly. I only shot 10 and 5 strokes behind Tony & Stephen respectively, and I had a lot of fun. Definitely something I could get into.

Of Stages and Rewards
Nothing's really happened/been happening. Went up with Tony to his grandparent's place in Michigan, where I met an entire side of his family. The place is right on a lake, so we tubed and swam and boated for a couple days, and filled the nights with poker and other games. A good time.
Other than that, it's basically been trying to grind out the ( Read more... ) -
Of Softball and Work
Not much going on now. Work during the week, come home and watch tv/eat dinner, either do nothing during the weekend up here or go home for a visit. Stephen organized a co-ed softball team, and though our season is short, it's been a fun diversion from the boring regularity of this summer. Other than that, my biggest priority is to clean my room ( Read more... ) -

I made it back alive and well from Trinidad. Actually, I got back like a week ago, but I kept putting of updating this because I didn't want to have to write all about the trip. Then I realized that this is my journal, and nothing says that I must to write out everything I did. Plus, I wrote a journal while on the trip, so I have that to keep my ( Read more... ) -
Greetings from Trinidad!
So I made it to Trinidad, alive and well. It's amazing here. The place we're staying at most of the time is in the "mountains" about 800 feet above the main port city. We're in a little guest house dealy that has a veranda on our second floor that overlooks the entire city on the plain below. Think of the classic "makeout point over LA" image, ( Read more... ) -

Packing always takes me hours. Usually because I get distracted and do other things right in the middle of packing ( Read more... ) -
Internet Novelties
So I've accessed the internet on my desktop for the first time in 377 days, as my antivirus so kindly reminded me. Since leaving the dorm, my desktop has be disconnected from the world. But now that Hendo is gone and isn't using the router for his desktop, we've attached it to mine ( Read more... )
