PeggedNotWithstanding

College has begun yet again. The cycle refreshes with a new set of professors, classmates, and study materials. It is actually been pretty fun. Psychology is enjoyable, history is a walk in the park, and even P.E. gives me a good sweat. It is just my comp and math class that give me some cause for worry. No matter how easy things get writing a paper and studying still take effort. Thankfully a three day weekend greets me at the end. Appreciating my free time is nice. Having too much of one thing places your mind in a state of content. With a tight schedule comes a tight respect for the small things in life.

It has been over two years since my last serious illness and I thought it would go on for a few more, but I should have known better. A public environment, such as college, is bound to swipe its infectious claws across this gorgeous face. I had a terrible sore throat and general numbed weakness for a few days. The worst part was that it was right in the middle of the week. So I had to attend classes while enduring this annoying sickness. I managed, but I am still getting over the mucus and snot that seems to accompany the tail end of all my recent illnesses. In some ways it is worse then the former problem. Stuffed sinuses just suck.

Meeting new faces and pretending to be happy are not on my top 10 favorite things to do. But I am actually surprised with how smooth things have been going so far. I could just be enjoying the first easy month of school before I am smacked with the hard hitting work, but I think things are going to stay this way till the summer. Ah, the summer, how beautiful you look through this Spring stained window.

Even though my life is filled with people and study I still find myself sitting with a blank expression. Can't put my finger on it, really. Sort of like a puzzle piece that I lost somewhere down the road. School is just so....Monotonous. The prospects of getting a job this summer sounds exciting though. Getting paid for my time doesn't sound so bad. I could definitely use the money. But all I really want are video games and expensive gadgets. Who cares about that stuff? All it does is kill time in the most entertaining ways.

I am supposed to keep a journal during this semester for my comp class, so I was wondering if I could use this blog for that purpose? I suppose it fulfills the criteria, but do I want my professor to see this blog with all its anime nonsense? It would make a fantastic journal, I must say. I'll just email him the link and he can tell me yes or no. Either way I shall continue with my volumes for as long as my fingers and this blasted keyboard take me.

The prospects of visiting my beloved homeland seem like a dream. I will return, but when? This year seems too soon, but next year seems too late. I suppose the longer the better. Money, time, and coordination are three luxuries most people in America don't, but should have. I don't regret. I simply await for the right time to present itself.

Who knows what is going to happen in the next month, but I can rule out three things: 1. No girlfriend, 2. No Wii U, and 3. No girlfriend and Wii U.

Wait...Typing out "no girlfriend and Wii U" is like saying "no food and food."

Am I just being a fool spending my time playing video games? Sure, it is fun and a good way to pass the time, but maybe I should incorporate other things to pass my time. Reading a book? I figure that since I love stories in video games and shows then books probably contain the most fascinating of all stories. After all, video games and movies are often based off of books. I should probably start reading the good stuff before I make this 'never reading a book' a habit.
