I smells like fall tonight. The air is wet and cold and there is just the slightest hint of decaying fallen leaves. It makes my day better just to breath in the fresh air.

I had a rough morning. Even though I try to keep myself light hearted for everyone else. Big exams always take a toll on my brain and my heart. I feel...

And, as I mentioned already, it's on a Saturday. sadness. Anyway, I must be totally stressed out because I'm not sleeping well and I really can't stay focused on anything constructive. However, movies, video games,...

Things worked out well today. All things being as they are, it was a good day. Ever have days that just flow right? It was nice.

Last night I went to my friend's house-warming party. Just for a little bit, I spent an 11 hour day at school ate a quick dinner then ran over to the party. I should've been at home sleeping, because I slept so poorly that I'm not even sure why I got up this morning. First night in almost two months without a dream that I...

Freak out! I'm still in panic mode from the first few days of school. With any luck at all this will pass over me within the next week or so. Until then I'll basically be running around nervously. For today, I have to go get some egineerong type math accomplished or I'll never get all my reading done tomorrow.....sigh.

I promise updates will soon contain...

So after the first day of school, I have two chapters on engineering to read as well as the first two books of Plato's republic. Ewww. That's a lot of reading for a humble engineer like myself. But at least it's a managable amount at this point. Also, sparknotes are going to become my new best friend in philosophy class! chuckle.

I got to catch...
