First Day Of School

This is possibly my last first day of school ever.

Okay, that's a freaky thought. I'm almost done with school.

Anyway, it's my last first day of school, and I might not even have class. My morning lab isn't being held (so now I'm in the compy lab instead) and I don't know about my evening class yet. In the meantime, I've got time to clean up my room, eat some lunch, get my senior hat ... Yay. Ooh, and take a nap, maybe.

It seems I should retract my own comment on my last entry; a few of those comments seem to be automatically generated. At least, the gaming one and the debt consolidation one. Tricky way to advertise, that's for sure.

I've got a few more people to track down as well. The main issue here? I have no idea where they live. No idea. Some people are in the dorms, but a large chunk have moved off-campus now, and ... yeah. No idea.

Hmm. My last first day and I want to take a nap. I'm definitely a college student.

A Minor Perk

So I've bragged plenty about the fabulous changes in my life in the last few months. I mean, I have a job that's just ... not very job-like. I live in my own little part of paradise. The food's great.   But there are the little perks, too. The things that may have occurred to me before I signed on but weren't necessarily part of the decision itself -- things like health insurance and nearby trails and weather that I happen to love even when it's totally screwing with me.   Enter ... this thing.   This pedometer is a bonus unto itself, as I get straight-up cash from my health insurance company just by wearing it. But what is far more intriguing to me has been what it has revealed. Prior to this, my jobs have required a lot of desk time. Not surprising; engineers use computers. Computers require desks. That's pretty much just the way it goes, unless you've got a laptop in the back of a pickup somewhere (I'm talking to you, inspector-ty...

Perfect

Biochemistry brings strange revelations. All right, so I'm not one for smooth transitions. It's been another week for reflection and whatnot, and that includes while I'm in class. Have you ever taken a look back at yourself and realized how completely and totally different you are now than you were X number of years ago? I guess I'm thinking specifically of my college-aged readers ... Take, for instance, you in high school versus you now. I know I've changed; I look roughly the same, but just about everything else is different, especially my thought processes. I am a Christian scientist. Well, Christian engineer (this semester, more scientist some days). Those two sides don't always get along very well. But today, in biochemistry, the intricacy of the glycolysis pathway hit me and my "inner response" was something like, "Holy cow." Okay, so maybe that last sentence didn't make much sense to anyone but me. Let me rephrase. We were ...

SWG2L: Party Of One

Jonah Hill, continuing to make Jason Segal uncomfortable. (Universal Pictures) Matthew the Waiter: Hey, how's it going? Peter Bretter: Hey, I'd like to grab some dinner, please. Matthew: Okay, great. Is your wife gonna meet you? Peter: No. Matthew: Your girlfriend? Peter: No, I don't have a girlfriend, so... Matthew: [confused] You're just by yourself? Peter: Yeah. Matthew: Sucks. Okay, so just one. Here's your wine list, your menu, come on. You want, like, a magazine or something? It's gonna be boring if you're just sitting by yourself. Peter: No, I'll be alright. Thank you. Matthew: I would just be so depressed. ("Forgetting Sarah Marshall." Yeah, that's right. I just quoted that . I swear, it's relevant.) I had coffee with one of my single friends a few weeks back and we got onto the topic of "Things To Do When You're Single." More accurately, we were talking about things that should be experienced and one ...
