Well, I survived yesterday. That is a feat in itself.

My morning started with a Quantum Mechanics problem that the evil Professor Butler gave us in Issues in Science & Religion. Why did he do this? I am thoroughly convinced it was given to drive me stark raving mad for the rest of the day. Because that's what it did. As I ran around campus my mind ( Read more... )

As I sat at the computer, jibing to a beat in my head, I noticed him in the door frame. I looked at him and smiled ( Read more... )

I had a good day and a good night. Seeing as how yesterday was absolutely horrible, I needed it. It felt good to sit down with someone I knew I could talk to and just talk about a bunch of shit that really isn't all that important and then a ton of stuff that is important. A lot of things I wanted to tell my best friend and couldn't find the words ( Read more... )

"More Like Her" by Miranda Lambert

She's beautiful in her simple little way
She don't have too much to say when she gets mad
She understands she don't let go of anything
Even when the pain gets really bad
Guess I should've been more like that

You had it all for a pretty little while
And some how you made me smile when I was sad
You took a chance on ( Read more... )

The hospital and the college's lock down has just been lifted. There was a shooting 2 miles away from my apartment. I was on a bus to Disney [Magic Kingdom] to get my hair cut when we were suddenly detoured. I looked out the window and I saw below me a cop with an automatic, belt fed weapon. Military grade.

My heart was in my throat. I texted ( Read more... )

I try to be considerate, kind, compassionate, grateful and humble. But sometimes I treat people wrong, sometimes I get mad and say things I don't mean. Sometimes I snap at people when they're helping me. Sometimes I'm a little too confident. Sometimes I'm a little too heartless and inconsiderate.

But I've paid my dues too.

Don't forget that I've ( Read more... )

Every now and then there is a song that touches me and hits me hard at the same time.

"The House That Built Me" by Miranda Lambert did exactly that.

What she says to the owners of the house, her childhood place, is exactly what I want to say to the people (or bank rather) that own my dad's house. I teared up, I won't lie.

I think this song made me ( Read more... )

I don't understand why ungrateful people are given so much. This is not to say that I don't have a lot, because I do. I have plenty. And I'm grateful for that. But there are things [ie: family] that I want and I don't have. I sit and watch other people trash their families without giving a damn. But, I guess that's the human condition- we never ( Read more... )

So... my plans on entering the NROTC program at Jacksonville University may or may not have halted.

I was reading up on my requirements and all that lovely stuff (and by stuff, I mean shit) when I came across academic requirements. I optimistically clicked the link and began to take in what my future would be like. I'm required to take Naval ( Read more... )
