WHOCARESWGD

As I find myself trudging through the semester, it looks like there's only two weeks left before finals. I can't wait for this to end and summer to begin, and I can't believe my 36 unit barrage of classes in two semesters is coming to an end. Honestly, it's been the most work I've ever had to handle, but it's been been the best time of my life. All the memories made it whiz by; I can remember my first day after Bumbershoot like it was yesterday. AND after two full years here, I've officially taken more units at State than I did at SFSU. I guess this is home again... : )

So projects, presentations, and final exams pretty much fill the first three quarters of May, but I'm going to burn through it and hit summer with a bang. Sorry I missed basketball yesterday, but I had to be at school to finish up some final projects. Three weeks from now, I promise I'll be a basketball machine! All I want to do this summer is work out, travel, and start life after college. Yes, technically I have two more classes left, but who's counting. If they had offered them this semester, I gladly would have taken them, but I can't control that and I'm not going to let it ruin my "graduation". The bulk of the work is done and I don't care about walking or throwing caps in the air or any of that GradFest bullshit. I'm educated, I have high school diploma part two, time to move on.

I can't seem to do anything right anymore. Just confusion, that's all...

I just turned in my second VB project, which came out OK but I just completed it about an hour ago and put about 2 total hours of work into it. Currently, I might be around a low B in the class with one more project left. I think I'll need a good grade on the final too.

Spring break is over and the grind must continue on. I do feel pretty relaxed and refreshed, but I really need to get myself back into the swing of things mentally. I've put off a lot of work and I know it's going to bite me in the ass with long nights and tired eyes. So while everyone else is on THEIR spring break (excluding Justyn and Eli of course), I hope to get caught up with everything and finish the final stretch with authority. As Dr. Cheeks would say, "I'm a little behind..."

In preparation for Saturday, we didn't do very much on Friday night. Actually, I don't even remember what we did.

Saturday though, we all woke up early (for a Saturday) to play some badminton at Balboa. For some reason, the activity center was closed and it surprised everyone who showed up, not just us. Anyway, I prefer the sunshine anyway so it was nice to hit the cocks around for a while right outside, even got in a good catch. While Garrett and Kim broke away to go watch Lucas get his new tattoo, the rest went to Spaghetti Factory for lunch downtown. Despite to-go drama, it was a good lunch followed by a car nap and Blick trip. No Saturday afternoon during the months of March-September would be complete without a swim, which I was surprised I still had time for with all the things we had already done. I guess that's the beauty of waking up at a decent hour. But the pool was great, and once dry and slightly more tan, I found I had to choose between Darick's dinner at BJ's or Stone. Yeah, tough choice. Luckily, but not surprisingly, Justyn was still down to go and finish the Vertical Epic trio with the '08. This was literally a "cool" Stone trip; we brought two coolers of ice, filled 5 total 2-liters and a baby 1-liter and brought them all back ice-cold. It made the beer taste so much better. Ryder was sweet that night too. Played a game of Vert Ep pong, fireside chats, got to chip some lip, then bailed for some Yellow Shack. We weren't done yet though. The night owls (Justyn, Martin, Flo, Everett) got in some Hot Shots for the first time in ages. 

We spent Sunday looking at animals at the zoo, then bypassed a nap to read at Barnes and Noble before dinner at Domo.
