So the last two days have been awesome. I just thought I would share. Last night after a horrendous day of classes, I went to the Phi Psi house on campus and played poker. I initially lost all of my $10 but bought back in and made a net profit of $10. I was the last freshman at the table. Then today it rained all day because of Ivan. At about ( Read more... )

Yeah so I realized that there is definitely a trait in college kids that most high school kids don't have. I had always noticed it but never really realized what it was and where it came from. Being on your own forces you to do everything yourself. I can no longer have a problem that I can have my mom solve. Moms seriously do EVERYTHING for you ( Read more... )

Today I went stomping in puddles while it rained! It was awesome!

Tonight was enjoyable. I actually like to dance now. We went to a bunch of frat houses and listened to live music while dancing. I don't exactly know if I am a good dancer, but I like to do it now. Tonight was weird as well. Every frat we went to kept giving me alcohol. A guy would just come up to me and be like "do you need a drink?" or "are ( Read more... )

I just had the strangest case of de ja vou happen to me ever. I was sitting doing homework at my desk when my sister called me on my cell phone. I picked up and she said that the lawn mower had died on her. At that point I remembered having that exact conversation with her at the exact spot I was in several weeks prior, which was strange because ( Read more... )

College is really turning out to be cool. At first I was entirely overwhelmed by not knowing anyone and being in a familiar place, but now I love it. I've finally met some people to hang with. Today we had our Founders Walk and then a big party. We all got a copy of a Doctor Suess book. Later we brought cookies to the girls on a dorm floor ( Read more... )

Well, I've had to say some of my goodbye's. I feel like there should be sad-like music to it, and then a montage of all the good times I've had with the person. But when it happens all it is, is goodbye. A little idle chitchat, a hug, and then a last look goodbye. Movies have confused my view on how things should be I guess. I don't know what ( Read more... )

Well it's about time for all of us to leave. I can't beleive I will be in a strange place with maybe two people I know. If anyone wants to email me, my new address will be jason.j.mcgill@vanderbilt.edu. (no period in the address) I feel special using parenthesis. OK that's it.

Last night I went to the Incubus concert with my brother and some of his friends. Sadly, I did not get to see my brother drunk... again. It started to rain after we had been there for about an hour and they had to stop the show for 15 minutes. Once the show started again, it was really cool to listen to the music with the wind and the lightning ( Read more... )

So recently I have been having college dreams. Very strange. Last night I couldn't figure out pschology so I forgot that I had 4 other classes. So 2 weeks into the semester I remembered I had 4 other classes that I hadn't been to. I was pretty much screwed. Then my cell phone broke and they gave me one the size of a graphing calculator. The ( Read more... )
