Why study when I can Blog?

Okay, so I'm procrastinating... sue me?

I did get more homework done than I would usually do... so I suppose that might be a sign that I am coming out of my homework apathy a bit.

I have a test tomorrow that I haven't done all of the reading for. I also haven't been paying 100% attention in the class (You know it's bad when your professor says to you at the end of class something to the effect of "I don't know what your doing on that [my PDA] but I have the feeling it isn't history" Oops...) That is the only one I am a bit worried about. I have some time tomorrow to study, but not much, and there is a lot of reading which I haven't covered.

That is the price I pay for not managing my time and letting myself slip. I wouldn't want to get a bad grade in a core class like that. I guess we will see how things go. It's going to be an essay/short answer test, so as long as I can pull some stuff out I don't believe I'm going to do too bad. I have a tendency of pulling that kinda thing off. I would also assume that it isn't going to be incredibly hard as it is a core class. We shall see, shant we? :D

I think I'm starting to get back into the readings and whatnot for my other classes. I really do want to be excited about what I'm studying... I do want to be a good steward of what God has given me. It's hard with some of the things we have to study, but that means I need to spend more time with it. I guess I need to start acting like someone who is on the Dean's list and in an honor society (and hopefully 2 if all goes well). Thing's aren't going to get easier from here, especially if I go onto something graduate level.

I had a really great retreat this weekend. I'm still processing it a bit, so I will try to write something about it at a later date (say... when I actually have time?)

For now, I should get ready for bed, and maybe read some of my History.

Night all.

I figured I should write something...

Eh... its been a little while hasn't it?

Last time I posted was the crappy accident. Ironically I'm going in tomorrow to support my friend in talking with the DA about it. So I guess we will see how that goes.

Lately I feel like I have been in a bit of a rut... Things aren't too bad, but there doesn't seem to be much which would make me want to say "Wow, that was really great!" I've been slipping a bit on my homework, and I haven't had the incentive to try and get it back to normal levels.

I'm going on a retreat this weekend, and I'm looking forward to that. I hope it can refresh me and give me some of the focus which I seem to have lost.

There is enough going on in my life that I could probably type quite an essay on it, however I'm not really in the mood for it right now.

I talked to my ex-gf for the first time in.... well, awhile. It went fairly well. Things are progressing well with her relationship, so there isn't as much tension between us, for which I am very greatful. It looks like we might be able to talk once in awhile and get along, which I don't mind too much. My first ex-gf still doesn't want me to be part of her life at all, so I really don't know much about how she is doing... which is good in some ways also. I don't anticipate talking to my ex too often as I don't want that to get in the way of healing.

I should probably be getting to sleep fairly soon, so I think I will sign off for now.
