Well the semester is finally over. FINALLY OVER. Ah thank the lord! This semester was especially difficult and tough and just ahhhhhhh. But YES it is over. Now we have three weeks off and they are going to be wonderful.
I will be going to see Sherlock Holmes sometime this week, (hopefully) lots of time with Tasha, Christmastime, a 24 Hour long Party/Shindig/Extravaganza, New Year's, and lots and lots of sleep and relaxation. I am going to take as full advantage of this as possible.
Video games, video games, video games. I've already leveled up three times in Uncharted 3 and once in Resistance 3 and came close to another leve in Killzone 3, I am just trying to catch up on playing online. The internet at school is just so terrible that playing online is absolutely terrible.
I thought I was going to have a lot to write nut I really don't after all. Huh, oh well. Enjoy your break you college kids and enjoy the holidays!

Post 179 | F-ing Republicans
Ok, I have no other outlet for this so I am using my blog because I don't feel entirely comfortable posting it on twitter or Facebook...
FUCKING REPUBLICANS MAN. My roommate and one of my best friends are Republicans but HOW IN HELL CAN THEY SUPPORT THESE CANDIDATES WHEN THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT GAYS ARE PEOPLE TOO. GOD DAMN.
They say they are God loving people, and believe in rights and blah blah blah, but one of Jesus's biggest IF NOT BIGGEST statement is to LOVE EVERYONE NO MATTER WHAT! If they are Christians they would not have a problem with LGBT people serving in the military, or getting married, or having families. It just really pisses me off how people get behind these candidates but refuse to acknowledge that there is this group of people (who are awesome by the way) that, if a Republican is elected president again, will be treated as second class citizens.
I am having a lot of problems with these people right now. I have been watching videos of Republican candidates talking to gay people or about gay people and it really irks me, can you tell? Like this one for instance...
How can people in this country stand for this? Blowing off people who are people just like you and me? I mean really. Besides no matter who we elect there are going to be problems. People are blaming everything on Obama but face it, with a Democrat in office and a house/senate controlled by Republicans nothing is going to get done, and it would be the same thing if McCain had been elected president. IT GOES BOTH WAYS PEOPLE.
I may not be an expert on such things but this is what I have come to observe. I really wish I had a better outlet for this so more people could know what I think. I have another rant I can completely go on about but I will save that for another post. Thanks for reading, sorry if my language offends you but...

Post 178 | One More Week
Ok here it is, the last week of the first semester of my sophomore year of college is upon us. One more week that consists of...
Monday: 4 Classes, 2 Papers to turn in, 1 test
Tuesday: 1 Class, 1 Piano lesson
Wednesday: 2 Tests
Thursday: Nothing
Friday: 1 Test, 1 Presentation
I can do this. It is going to be a little crazy, but hopefully it will all fly by and this hell of a semester will finally be behind me. It has had its ups and downs, mostly downs. Not personally really just class-wise. It was really rough and not that much fun and a lot of busy work that seemed pointless and a hassel to me. Hopefully next semester will be better and I will actually learn more.
That isn't to say I didn't learn anything, I did, I just feel like I did not, you know? No? Oh well, I guess it makes sense in my head and that is what is important. I feel like I am forgetting something on that list up there. I just finished the second paper I had to do so that gets that out of the way. I have to study for that test tomorrow which is going to be a thorn in my side. What teacher gives a test and then a final in the same week? One is on a few chapter and then the final is cumulative? INSANITY I TELL YOU. My girlfriend's spanish teacher is doing the same thing to her which is most unfortunate.
We are going to Chicago on Friday after we drop all of our stuff off at home. My girlfriend and other friend love The Rocket Summer so we are going to his concert Friday night. Should be fun I guess. I am more excited for break than the concert. I'll just be chilling and listening to decent music the whole time. My guess is there will be another guy like me who just brought their crazed girlfriend so maybe I'll chat with him haha.
Oh finals week, how I loathe you. I am at home right now, there was a LEGO train show in town this weekend that I wanted to go to so we came home for that and I cleaned my room and made it Christmassy for when I officially come home so I have an easier time unpacking all the stuff I am bringing back. There's a good chunk of stuff. The only thing I am bouncing between is my desk chair, I love that thing and hate not having it at home and I can take it apart so the only thing stopping is the slight hassel. Oh well, we shall see.
Wow I am talking a lot about me lately which I guess is what blogs are for? Maybe? Well I think that is enough of me talking for today, thanks as always for reading and I will write more probably after this insane week is over.

Post 177 | One of Those Days
So today right? I mean Sundays right? I mean one of those days where you do not want to get anything done and you know you have some stuff to get done, or at least should get a jump on, but you wind up only doing some of it because you are tired of the work and have no idea what to do with yourself other than that? You know those days?
Today is one of those days. I have gotten some of my work done, but then I try and play a video game and get bored very quickly, try to watch something on the internet and get bored very quickly just aaaaaahhhh. It's frustrating but whatever. Everyone has these days.
It's going to be like 10 tonight and I am finally going to have energy to do something and not have the time to do it because, well, I need sleep. I like sleep. I guess I could try and finish Blue Like Jazz right now, I am basically done just three chapters left but again, no motivation whatsoever.
Oh well. It's official by the way, I am the new Online Editor for the school newspaper. It really isn't that big of a deal I basically just put stories from the paper up online and make sure the website keeps chugging along. I will probably be meeting with my boss and the teacher advising the whole thing sometime this week to go over a mass of ideas and such. I have to research some advertising things and we also may be creating a Twitter and there's a whole bunch of stuff. Plus I get paid at the end of the semester so that is great.
I also worked at the school radio station Friday night, boy was that an experience. After doing it once I now know what to do all the time and it makes me much less frightened to do it again. I actually look forward to doing it because it gets me money and some experience operating a board, which is something I enjoy doing. I just have to get my timing down right and such and I should be able to make some money here and there at the beginning of the next semester just fine.
Well I guess that is all I really wanted to talk about today. My girlfriend and her roommate are going to a building party so I do not have my usual dinner mates. I have been left to fend for myself. Oatmeal it is! So, thanks as always for reading and this is me trying to post more often so, keep an eye out for more posts in the future!
