God Im getting bad at this

So I havent posted in a millenia right? Im a terrible person. Well there has been way too much that has happened since I last posted so Ill just give some highlights. My trip up north was awesome, I got to see a lot of friends I normally don't see which was super nice. I saw the friends I always do too which was good. I turned in a rough draft for my term paper in econ today, its getting down to the nitty gritty: only 2 more weeks and then finals. Here is a layout of what is due in each class:

Econ 500- Final Paper and Final
PSCI 540- Final Paper and Final Presentation
Hist 600- Final Paper

I have an A- in econ and PSCI right now and a high A in history. Econ I think ill get an A-; I would have to get like 100% from here on out to get an A. Hist is almost a guarenteed A and for PSCI I need to do a good job on the last 2 assignments. I can handle a 3.9 but if i get a 3.8 im going to be pissed.

Been reading a lot too, read a few books and im working on the last one in the sword of truth fantasy series which I have been reading for years. Oh yeah Roger Federer beat Nadal ON CLAY in the Masters Madrid final, I was so happy. The French Open is going on right now so hopefully Roger can win it since it is the only grand slam he doesnt have. Speaking of Clay, I won my first set on clay ever tonight against John! I shouldve won one a few weeks ago, I had a few set points but blew it. Not tonight though, im playing much better, serving better, my backhand is clean, and im starting to get some topspin on my forehand.

Well I guess the big news is that Meghan, Madi, Shannon and Rob will be here for like 10 days in July which will be sweet. Also, I might live in Hawaii for the month of august and first 2 weeks of september since the Morrisons live there and are building a house. He wants me to come out, said he would buy my ticket, free room and board, and pay me. Sounds like a pretty awesome deal.

Well thats it for now, Ill post again soon, unless I get enveloped by school. Bye

Blah de da blah blah

Ah, Im just sitting here relaxing at work right now. I feel kind of tired, but I haven't been doing much lately. Maybe that is why. School is moving on nicely; only 5 more weeks including finals. Going up to Auburn in 2 weeks which will be fun. Hmm, just had my first round of midterms and papers which went well. Oh yeah, I met with the third member of my thesis committee which went really well. Monday night, Im going down to San Diego until wednesday afternoon, which will be fun. Oh yeah, I just watched Donnie Darko last night for the first time, talk about a freaky movie. It was really good though. Lets see, fixed my laptop so that works again thankfully.

Im SUPER excited for summer. Trip to New York, few trips to Vegas, also im taking french over the summer so I will hopefully be trilingual here in a few months. Oh yeah my dad bought a ping pong table which is awesome and we have played twice in the last few days so much fun. Going to play on a clay court (tennis) on monday which will be my first time so im really stoked about that.

All in all, I dont really have anything to update, havent been doing much. Little running/working out/tennis here and there. Spent Cinco De Mayo with my uncle in Palm Desert which is always a good time. We even had a pinata haha. Anyways take care.

Oops!

Well, I had been doing better about posting. It seems like I average about one a week which isn't too bad I guess. Hit some tennis for a little the other night, my shoulder is completely healed. Thank god! I hate having a bum shoulder. I seem to have developed a cough as well, which is actually more fun than usual given all the panic about the "swine" flu. Oh lord, pandemic my ass.. it will be gone in a month. Well, been watching a lot of movies lately: Sweeney Todd, and the Pirates trilogy. Hmm, read the fourth Harry Potter book (The Goblet of Fire). Oh my laptop has been having one issue after another. First, the power cord broke; so I ordered a new one. Then, a day later, the cooling fan broke. I ordered another one and am waiting on it. I guess 3.5 years is getting up there in laptop age. So lets see, my sister got engaged! Yay congrats Shannon and Rob. Exciting stuff. Trying to get back into an active mindset: worked out this morning and ran twice last week. I don't know why but its been hard to stay motivated with that.

Spent yesterday doing a bunch of random school stuff. I have my thesis comittee locked in and I had to submit a graduate check for next winter. Revised a big paper thats due monday and turned another paper in last wednesday. I have a midterm in my econ class on wednesday, so I'll probably study for that tomorrow. Thinking about going to San Diego next week for a night, I'll have to see if Mike is free. Oh yeah! bought a webcam and a flash drive. The flash drive has already come in super handy and the webcam is sweet too. Also, there is new tennis center opening near my house that has 10 courts (9 hard and 1 clay!!!). Clay courts are really hard to find in the US and usually expensive. Its 50$ a month and it has a pro shop, tourneys and all kinds of cool stuff. Im really excited.

Going up north for memorial day weekend. Im really excited about that. It will be nice to get away and see some friends. Caroline might ride up north with me too which will be nice to have some company. See my sister, go out a little, be a nice change from sitting around all the time. Oh yeah, I need to call Uncle Brendan and see if he is doing anything for cinco de mayo. Well im sure there is some other stuff, but I cant think of it for now. See ya later.
