A semester and half a year in a nutshell.
This past spring semester saw me completely frazzled. Way too many credits (nearing 20) and aiming for a perfect score was a recipe for a stressful disaster of a semester. I dropped one class about 8 weeks in due to the professor being a completely radical, superfuck of a prof who was so schizo I came to a crossroads when dealing with her. It was either try and prove myself and ol crazy that I could do this class, and let the five other classes suffer, or drop her like a bad habit and enjoy the semester with typical college frustrations.
I opted for the latter. I 3.86’d this semester. w00t for me. w00t indeed. A cute fella (military man!) became the object of my fascination from Jan - April. I had a waning crush on him, but could not tell you why. Nothing physically attractive in obvious ways. But he piqued an interest no less and I became interested. Until he dropped the bomb of having a girlfriend despite having almost an entire semester go by with incredible flirting and no former word or warning of her existence.
Regardless of having been informed of this, we kept with our shenanigans because I figured 1) I really didn’t want anything with him to begin with and 2) if he knew she was his girlfriend and still kept up with me as he did all along, it must not be such a big deal. The end of our finals week I e-mailed him (we shared a class) and basically said it was fun to chat with him and if the girlfriend was ok with the idea, it would be fun to hangout sometime since we had a lot of fun throughout. He invited me out the same evening. It was me, him and his friend. We drank and spent almost an entire night together talking and having fun. Time went by, words were exchanged, I was given a tour of his home, and driven back to my car by him where he rounded second base and was running to third before I was like “oh hell no” LOL.
ANYWAY. I had/have a total of one week off between the end of finals and the starting of my summer session. I willfully and happily signed up for summer session to have an upper leg come fall. It’s down and dirty, folks. I’m looking at out of state colleges for grad. school but we’ll see. The U’s pretty good looking.
This one week that I have had off I have managed to:
- Go camping on the US/Canadian border
- Amusement Park
- Mall of America
- Blingo @ Friday’s
- Drink w/ the ladies
- Farmers Market
- Purchased my books @ half price and barnes & noble
- Lowered my carbon footprint & got a little greener.
More later.
