Greetings,

It has been quite some time since my last update. I have not had time nor access to the internet for a week now. So life has become all flipped and turned around. I am meeting so many new people, and still trying to visit the old ones. Funny how the friends I met two years ago represent old friends. I believe Tim said it best when he said "I am having trouble believing I am a junior." Me too Tim. Time, I tell you it is moving and we don't even recognize it sometimes. Anyhow I am in my adjustment period right now. I am getting used to the whole RA thing while still finding time for me. It hasn't proved too difficult as of yet. I have decided that I am not going to drink alcohol until Christmas break in an effort to maintain my rising GPA and keep myself out of trouble, not to mention assist in losing weight. I have set some big goals for myself this year. I want to get on the dean's list both semesters and lose 50 pounds by my 21st birthday, which is January 30th for all who don't know. So some of you may not recognize me if you don't see me for a while. All I can say is that life is becoming ever more complicated as the years pass. The thing that excites me most is that I actually feel as though I am becoming prepared a little bit for what is ahead. I think others are feeling the same way. Though we show it in different ways we are maturing and becoming the people we will be for the rest of our lives. I know it sounds corny but I think it is true. I am optomistic about the year, though I am bummed that classes start in a few hours. I know that in a few months I am going to be looking back going "where has this semester gone?" and then before I know it, it will be summer again. I have decided that I need to CARPE DIEM or SEIZE THE DAY. I figure that I am entering the second half of my college career and I don't want to just "get by" anymore. For me this year is going to be about growing. I will however make sure to have alot of fun too, and 21 will be a gala event for me. I just refuse to hit the status quo this year. No Bullshit I need to hold myself accountable and in the words of the immortal Larry the Cable Guy "Get'r'Done."
