One year in...

and I've failed my goal of writing a post a day. I really goofed that one up. In order to sum up this year, here is my stream of consciousness.

I wanted to keep a journal of my thoughts and feelings throughout the year and summer resulted in a collapse of those. John and I had a falling out over something stupid, but he seems very embarrassed about the events that lead up to our not talking and I am a little stubborn.

Honestly, I don't care about what happened. You're a good man John. Foolish, maybe a little naive, and definitely overly trusting, but a good man all the same.  I hope we'll repair things because I do miss you.

If you read this, we need to talk sometime. Also, my Dota stack is always open.

Classes were hard, but I passed them all somehow maintaining a 3.47 GPA this semester. I don't know how I did it, I thought for sure that with a 42% midterm average in linear algebra that I would get a C, but I got a B- in the class. Purdue and grade curves, good grief.

It is starting to look like I won't be completing a film minor if I want to also get a nuclear engineering minor.  I'm going to take film classes for the rest of my general education credits, but I am already looking at a few summer semesters or a potential 'victory lap' semester.  I really have no idea what I am doing when it comes to planning out the next two and a half years.

I'm going to Chicago to hang out with Brie, Stephan, Brian, and maybe Kendall if she can get out of work before going back to school. My mum and dad don't seem pleased, I know they miss me and I miss them dearly, but its a good chance to go see the windy city with friends. I'm not sure what we'll do there, maybe go to the museums or see a show. It'd be nice to catch a musical I haven't seen in some time.

My parents are getting weary of the Vermont weather. It's cold and my dad loses blood flow to his extremities. He really doesn't seem to happy and work is starting to wear on him.

Finally, I am addicted to Puzzle and Dragons. I need to stop paying for stones, that is my new years resolution! NO MORE IN APP PURCHASES!!!!

Peace out 2014!

It's been a while

So I totally failed my new year's resolution, but whatever. I'm back.

School has been hard on me this semester. I'm no 4.0 student, but it was nice sitting comfortably above a 3.5 at the end of last year.  Now that looks like its going to be gone and with it my scholarship (if my semester GPA is below a 3.0).  RIP my wallet.

I haven't played nearly as much Magic: the Gathering, nor have I played much Dota 2 for that matter. School work has started to consume my life. I don't mind this because Aerospace engineering, despite the challenge, is what I want to be doing. I want to design rockets. I've known this for several years now.

It's funny, when I used to play EVE: Online my Grandmother came to visit and asked me: "Is this what you want to do with your life?"  Indirectly my answer is yes. I want to work in the space industry, I want to design rockets, I want to fly space ships. She's gone now, but I hope she knows that my obsession for EVE stemmed from my love for space.

I don't plan on getting to deep tonight. I have a project to do and an exam to study for tomorrow. Such is life. Also a project to continue working on. Bah. AAE251 I want to beat you so badly, but its hard.
