To make a long story short... I passed my fraternity exam today, and I'm coming home tomorrow. I definitely need a vacation, but I really don't think that it's going to be near long enough... I suppose we will just have to wait till Christmas break won't we? I've got a to do list though. I'm going to first get a haircut. The last time I got one of those was the night before I moved in! Driving is also on my list because I LOVE driving. I also need to get a bunch of stuff together to bring back here. Things that will help bring more order and tranquility to my humble abode. I'm also looking forward to home cooking... I will never again make the misteak of buying a meal plan because I have never been so continuously sick as I have been here. I can't get used to the food. I would have thought that I would have had enough shots and have gone to enough third world countries to build an immunity to stomach trouble, but BEHOLD cafeteria food for three meals a day! There is no rival to such a minion as this! On another topic, I feel like I'm ready to explode. I'm not quite sure what it is, but I just feel strange. Maybe this vacation will set me back on my feet, but I don't know. It's really just a number of things combined. The stresses of midterms, the late nights and early mornings, the amount of socialization that I have been involved with. I don't know. Something I have been noticing around here though is that everyone here seems to be dramatically different from everyone I've known back home. Not always in a bad way, but I have to get used to it. As for my lady life (I know I'm making alot of exceptions in accordance with my laws based on personal information) I'm not really hunting right now which is weird. I've always been the one to chase and/or flirt, but I have not been compelled to do so here. I always get the pressure from everyone to date girls here, but I don't feel the need to. Society makes fun of people like me... but I see that as humerous. You see (and remember you are reading MY journal and thus MY opinions so take it or leave it) I don't really have a void to be filled by dating (which is why lots of people date) and I don't date off of curiosity (which is another reason why people date). I have seriously dated two girls in my exsistance and throught those experiences I learned the primary lessons of dating. How to dump, and how to be dumped. How- to get rid of someone that annoys you, and how to loose someone you really thought was cool. To me, right now it would be like playing with fire. (plus, I can't afford women, I'm in college). The only reason I would ever date a girl is to see if she were compatible with me for marriage. I think it's still a bit early in the game for me to be thinking about that, so I'm not going to despite what society and those stupid MTV reality shows say I have to do. Which leads me into my next topic. I absolutely loath MTV. Not only does it have nothing to do with music, but it is extremely repedative. The problem with this world is that there is too much drama. According to MTV, life is about getting drunk, getting laid, and then getting angry with the person you just slept with. Either that or feeding off of other peoples problems by pearing into thier lives. Where does this put our generation? We don't have enough problems in our lives without having to watch other people have theirs on tv? I've just known too many people who feel like life is one big soap opera. They constatnly throw themselves into situations that they don't really belong in or want to be in, but the thrill and the rush of the drama compells them. That is all I have to say for tonight. See ya'll after FALL BREAK! ... Wait wait wait, I almost forgot to talk about English class! Today we talked about our project topics. I'm going to be focusing around 9-11, but I'm not quite sure what to focus in on. As for Wednesday, we won't be meeting in class, instead we will be on-line talking about our and eachother's bloggs. That is partly why I went so personal on this journal, because of the point I wish to prove about journals.
