This past week has been a little more eye opening. I guess the big thing is all about my grades. Throughout the semester, prior to this week, I have somehow kept my averages in all of my classes above a 90%. I am amazed because usually my work ethic is below average. I am proud to say that this semester has been different. I have done all of my homework on time. Now to this past week.

Kinda a good change considering I still don't have a job and I am almost always busy doing something whether it is clubs, homework, or friends. I love college life though. It is a ride that I never want to get off. Hidden under the piles and piles of homework is a very happy man thinking, maybe I don't want to be a climber after all and just...
