Just one of those days
Today is just one of those days when I start to let everything get to me. I try to stay positive but everything seems to piss me off. I woke up to punching a hole in my wall, simply because I was tired as hell and did NOT for the life of me want to get out of bed. But I did anyway and proceeded to getting my fist stuck in the wall at 7 oclock in the morning. Everything went smoothly as well untill I miscalculated my walk to class and ended up being late when I should've been on time. Again, not a big deal but I let it bother me of course. Then to put the icing on the cake, I get to math to find out we have a test this week. Not to mention alot of other side events including the burning of my grilled cheese I was cooking which accured as I was typing this sentence! AAH I can't catch a break today!

Saturday in the country
Man it feels good to sleep for 12 hours. I feel great! Its a beautiful saturday after noon and I just finished my online math homework so I don't have to worry about that for the rest of the weekend. I'm on a little personal vacation to Raliegh and it feels so great to be out here. I just needed a little while away from Wilmington. Don't get me wrong I love the port city and its my home but I just have to leave for a weekend here and there to avoid loosing my mind. I ate a delicious country breakfast with sausage eggs and biscuits and now I'm just relaxing looking out over the lake enjoying life. I like to be able to just turn my phone off for the weekend and have a refreshing get away so when I come back to school on Monday I wont be all hung over and feeling like shit, and I'll be ready to do work and get this semester over with. I'm ready for summer! Well I'm about to go on a golf cart ride out to plantation. Ill post more later

Why UNCW should not have a football team
For years UNCW has gone without offering any contact sports. I have heard a rumor that one of the donators or founders sons died playing football so they insisted that UNCW should not have contact sports such as football, lacrosse or wrestling. With the injury risk that is involved in these sports I believe that not offering a football team is justified. According to WWAY adding a football team to our school would cost too much money. Also with an addition of a football program would come scholarship opportunities for this program so the same scholarship opportunities would have to be offered to the UNCW womens athletic department. If a football team was to be established it could possibly cause student fees to increase by astronomical proportions. Many people believe that starting a football team would bring unity to UNCW as well as create more popularity as far as our national status but although this is a great idea, UNCW is just too small and we lack the fund at this point and time to establish such a program. Even though many students favor creating a football team, I think that when everybody's student fee's triple, they might change their mind.

March 19, 2009
Things haven't been going so great lately. School has really been taking a tole on me. I'm barely awake right now and its nine thirty I mean come on now. I guess I've just been getting sick of it all since It's getting so close to summer. Although things really have been sucking lately, I'm in a fairly decent mood right now because I just picked up a fresh set of tein coiloversprings for my car for a great price from my buddy tristen so I'm actually pretty happy right about now. I can't wait to put them on. I need to get back to my math homework and get to bed before I pass out sitting up.

Friday the 13th
Well I had one hell of a friday the 13th thats for sure, I should be in jail right now but thank god I know my stuff!! My best friend is in jail right now on a $550 bail. He got pulled over because I wasn't wearing my seat belt. Although he had 2 bench warrants for traffic violations, he didn't deserve to go to jail. Cops should be worrying about the murderers and rapists running around town, not us. So anyway, now my best friend whos been there for me since middle school is sitting in jail because my dumb ass didn't put my seat belt on. Although I can't blame myself for him not stashing his stuff properly like I did, I take full responsibility for putting us in that situation. There's nothing worse. The worst part of all is a few months ago 550 dollars was nothing to me! I mean I would literally walk around with a grand in my pocket just for the hell of it throwing money around like it was nothing. I mean I was making 450 a week as at 17 years old and was working with guys all in their late twenties to early thirties, while all of my friends were sitting in class in high school I was sitting on a couple grand and felt like I was on top of the world. I wish I still had that kind of money to throw around because Augie wouldn't be in jail right now thats for sure. So now I got to do what I got to do to get the money to get him out because it's not fair that he's there because of my screw up.

Im ready for six oclock
I seriously wish I had a remote like in that movie click where I could just fastforward through time! Im bored off my ass waiting for my friend to get here so we can get to myrtle beach. I can't wait to ride get out of the car and step foot in myrtle beach south carolina. Thats pretty pathetic that someone like me who has been almost everywhere there is to go but I must be feeling like this because this is the first spring break I've stayed in Wilmington since 8th grade! I feel I would've been much better off going on the cruise to the bahamas like I was suppose to but because my mother and father had business obligations to fill here in the Port City. Oh well, there will be plenty more spring break vacations to come in my lifetime. I also feel like I could've gotten more work done this break if I would've been on the ship!

Freshman Seminar
Taking freshman seminar was the biggest mistake I've made in a while. Although the class only lasts untill march, is just so happens the one day i have just one morning class, I have to come back on to campus just to go come to freshman seminar. I've been at my house since ten after eleven and now its one thirty and I'm sitting here waiting for class to start. The only thing that has seemed to benefit me from having to wait around all this time, is I usually get homework done in that spare time so that I can avoid having to stay up late doing homework assignments. I can't wait to schedule my classes for next semester. I won't be waiting around all day like this that's for sure. I feel like freshman seminar does nothing but make me feel more stressed about school because it adds completely unnecessary assignments that I have to work into my studying schedule. I can understand a few journals but the multiple event responses are rediculous in my opinion. Atleast spring break is right around the corner. It's going to be so sweet to get to write journals for freshman seminar while im sitting on the beach in the Bahamas. Awesome.
