Checkpoint

February flew by, bringing with it a multitude of snow and ice and even a shred of 60 degree weather. Quite a month, I must say.

To start off, I am proud to say that my Little Brother Chelsea is officially Active in Kappa Kappa Psi and my Little Sister Ashley is officially Active in Tau Beta Sigma. And Eddie did make it to Third Degree, which made me the happiest Little Brother imaginable.

I've gone apartment hunting with some people, and as of now it looks like we'll be signing a lease for Mercer Manor after spring break. I'm looking forward to it.

Spring break officially begins for me the moment I get out of my Spanish class tomorrow. Yay.

Did I mention my mind is all over the place and I'm really tired? That's why this post is much shorter than I had anticipated. I apologize for my brief visit, but at least you all know I'm still alive.

That is all.

Thank you and good night.

Cold

Well, 2010 ended, and now it's 2011. And boy am I busy as ever again.

Winter break went well for the most part. I saw people I hadn't seen in ages, including old high school friends and my SSO friends. I traveled as far south as the Columbus Zoo for the SSO reunion and as far east as Sandusky (Perkins, actually) for Eddie's graduation party. Both were fun times with both people.

But alas, all good things must come to an end, and now I'm back in the swing of yet another semester. Even though I'm only taking 13 hours this semester, two of my classes involve a great deal of writing, so I'm definitely occupied with homework. I guess that's why I'm a writing major...

I also successfully got my second speeding ticket this year. I didn't think it was fair since my car had died earlier that day and I was borrowing my parents' minivan, a tank vehicle I wasn't accustomed to driving. The cop was an asshole. Yes, I said it. Just another reason for me to grow spite against authority.

My mood has still been swinging in the lows, I'm not sure why. Some days are just incredibly frustrating, especially when I feel like all I do is stupid stuff. I hate feeling stupid, and I've felt like that a lot lately. But I know it's my fault. Oh well.

I also became a Big Brother again and received a Little Sister! Her name is Ashley and I am super stoked to have two Little girls that I have no doubt will become Active members in our organizations within the next few weeks. I really hope my Big Brother can make it to the final degree, it'd mean a lot to me. It'd be similar to having a parent come and watch their child graduate, at least for me it would. We'll see.

I really don't have much to say. I'm tired, it's been a long week of frustration, stupidity, and Reading Clinic.

That is all.

Thank you and good night.

Ugly Duckling

Why is it whenever I'm in a pessimistic mood I go and update my blog? I wish I knew...

Well, I completed yet another semester of college. Four down, God knows however many to go. I'm sorry to say that my semester GPA will not be as high as I hoped because I ended up getting a C in World Literature. Thankfully because I had a 4.0 for the summer semester, my cumulative GPA won't suffer as much... I hope. I also had a lot of friends graduate, and I will miss them dearly....

I've also proven myself useless in the world of technical theatre. I assisted with the setting up and tearing down of the jazzed up Nutcracker this past weekend, or it was more like "I was more of a pain than an actual assistant." Not knowing really anything is kind of frustrating, and while I like to think I'm learning and that over time I'll get better, I probably won't. I really don't know why Eddie calls me his replacement when I'm obviously extremely inexperienced.

Writing about all of this is just making me feel worse. Hopefully being on break will put me in a better mood. I doubt it.

That is all.

Thank you and good day.
