Well, after yet another day of studying I think Im going to call it an early night, and get up real early like I did think morning (5:15 am) to continue my studying, I am real poo brained right now. Chaka made vast improvements on his section of the apartment 424 webpage, I was pretty impressed myself for someone who doesnt do much html/web work that he put it all together in a relatively short period. Man I can't wait til next week when all these exams are going to be done, god so relaxing... Tomorrow basically looks to be the same as the past three days... more studying, this its real important as I will probably have my 2 hardest tests back to back on Monday morning, both my EE classes. I have a 248 review tomorrow at 1, hopefully Trinka (my prof, who really rocks) will give us a pretty good idea of what EXACTLY to study to do well on the final, so I can mostly concentrate on 214, definately my hardest course this semester. Well people, time to go to bed... be back lata

This journal entry is dedicated to Stu, who made me decide to write one... lets just call today another day of studying, from when I got up at 9 til right now, which is 11:55 according to my clock, I have been studying. I had a 214 review tonight, which basically left me more clueless than before, I seriously think she is taught new material tonight... I will probably be up until Gordo leaves to go on the paper route, but maybe, will come to the reasoning that more sleep will help my brain rest and will learn better if I get up early in the morning, but I dont know, I am still learning new material right now, kinda scary isnt it....that I am teaching myself (since I can't really pay attention to my prof) material that is going to be on my course final, the night before the final... I guess Im screwed if I am learning it the wrong way...oh well, back to studying

Well, today I got up at 9 and didnt do anything except study. I did take a break to play Aaron in a game of Madden, and also to get dinner, that was the only time I left the apartment.

- Diff EQ Friday 10:00-12:00
- Elen 248 Monday 8:00 - 10:00

Man studying for finals suck...especially since I really dont want to. Well the lady over at Banana Republic called me back after I called her back and told me to call her the week that I am coming home to set up an interview or something. My mom also sent me an email, saying that my friends from high school, the Gragert brothers were working at Radio Shack by my house and needed some Christmas help, but I dont really want to work there... I must say that Paul and Mike are kicking our ass in the website competition, there's is coming along nicely. I took my Handball final this morning, yeah...let me tell you how much I studied for that one, since I took it pass/fail I dont really have anything to worry about, since I finished in the second to top court, I will get credit for the class. I recalculated my Math grade and think that Im going to have to do better than I thought on the final to make a B in the class, so I probably should make sure to work hard on that one, I also need to do well in my Digital Systems Designs class, to maintain my A. My other class Electrical Circuit Theory, aka EE214 aka ELEN214, looks like a solid high C, although I went and met with my prof and she said, do the best as I can and that I might be surprised when I see my grade...so don't know what that means, could it mean that hard work does pay off ? Time to get back to studying...probably take a Madden break with Aaron around dinner time, I love that damn game. In case you guys didnt know, new pics up...

Well whats up everyone, hopefully everyone's weekend was enjoyable as mine was, my woman was in town this weekend and I had no sort for homework due this week because its dead week, and almost time for finals. I guess I need to get organized for them since I have one on Friday, oh well I will do that later, I just got a call back from the lady over at the Banana Republic factory outlet that I applied at during the Thanksgiving break, so hopefully that will come around to be something positive =) But of course if I do end up working there, god knows how much money I will end up spending there, at least I get the hookups on a discount. Well lets see, this weekend, first of all very relaxing, Friday night we a bunch of the crew all met up at OTB (on the border) for those of you unfamiliar, which included Me, Dodie, Aaron, Brady, Paul, Mike and Megan. After that we decided to head back to Mike and Paul's house to chill and smoke cigars cause Mike said they were amazing, which I found to be pretty amazing since after I smoked it I spent most the night puking and sitting in my bathtub recouperating. I have pictures from that, that I will probably be updating today when I get around to it. Before I forget, I am really perterbed that my apartment complex blocked the Napster port and that Scour shut down, now all mp3 access is limited....I dont want to have to go back to the good ol days of trading on FTPs, I've been spoiled. Saturday, we had nothing planned, and found out Aaron and Kirsten were going to Houston so we got ready and met them there to shop a little bit at the galleria and then went to dinner at this place called Maggios, which was a pretty nice resturant, but maybe it was the atmosphere or something, that made the resturant kind of unenjoyable. Anyways, we got back here and just chilled at our place. Sunday not much, Dodie cooked all of us dinner, which was awesome. Anyways, today was the last day of classes pretty much for me, so that makes me happy =) But at the same time, I enjoy learning the stuff I do, but oh well, I really could use a good break from school right now. Anyways Im going to work on the pictures right now, so if you are reading this, check over in the pictures section to see for updates.
