Catching Up

Wow, it feels like forever since I've written here. *checks* Eh, it's only been a few days, but still, these few days can add up to a week, and that week slowly become a month. Next thing I realize is that it really has been forever since I wrote! Now that would just lack any sort of couthness. *just found the real meaning of that word and is ready to abuse it to no ends*

Hmm, so why haven't I been able to write much? Well, that's a simple question to answer, as I just so happen to have so many good reasons that nobody will be able to continue without feeling shame. Um, yeah, because... I've been busy? Hey, I'm a college student who works, does homework, works some more, and watches Scrubs. You're lucky that I can find time away from my busy schedule to write in here. So be grateful :P

In all seriousness, though, I have been doing a lot of things. Weekends are extremely exhausting since I have programming team practice, work, and schoolwork. In essence, my Saturdays consist of waking up and going to practice, then work. I return exhausted and ready to do anything that involves me not doing anything... if that makes any sense to you. Sundays come around, another early morning. Go to work and return in the afternoon (just barely missing West End breakfast, damn!) to do homework or just lay around 'til the day comes to a close. Obviously that's no fun, but after such a tiring weekend the last thing I want to do is work some more. While I do know that blogs are usually about letting it all out, I really don't have much to let out afterwards. If I were a bit older, I'd come home to sit down with a nice glass of wine and my favorite TV show ("I'm looking at you Scrubs").

Even so, there was that first weekend where I went out Saturday night, just to have work the next day at ten. So what if I was up until five in the morning? And what if I wasn't one bit tired the next day? Well, then I'd say I should do that more often (even if I more or less passed out when I hit my pillow that night)! I plan to, but maybe not this weekend... philosophy paper that I have to score well on is due the next Monday >.<;;

Ooh, good news though! We've been doing all of these programming practices for a while now--two months mebbe?--so you'd think the contest would be coming up somewhat soon, right? And you'd be right! Why, in fact, this Saturday we'll be having the competition at Radford and we'll get our chance to kick major ass (I hear our team's pretty good). While that's fun and all--'cept for the getting up at seven part--one of the best parts is that I'll get a whole day off of work. In addition to that, after the contest ends, I will have no more early Saturday morning things to do! Now if that's not exciting, I don't know what is. I mean, not only will I get to sleep in, but I won't have to go to work until two in the afternoon. Which basically entails my regaining of Friday nights.

Man, how sweet will that be. After this weekend--I guess next week too--I'll get to have mostly full weekends again. Go out Friday nights, sleep in Saturdays, work a bit, and have free time to enjoy myself. Not too shabby. Maybe throw in the occasional party or something, who knows? Oh, but just remember one thing: it will be fun.
