Lifestyles of the not so rich and famous

Wow, I can’t believe that it has been a week since my last post…I’ve just been very busy this past week studying like mad for 3 tests. (I also had to rewrite a large part of this post, because the blog server was down for maintenance.) Now if this was last year, I wouldn’t have an excuse for not posting sooner. See, although it may have seemed that I was a business student, I was actually majoring in FILM…and probably one of their best students ever. To fully understand what I did, I have to describe a little thing called HOBBES. HOBBES is a network that indexes computers that are connected in the dorms to the A&M resnet… this made it possible for me to “borrow” a little over 100 hours worth of movies and shows and watch them during all times of the day and night…times I could have used to study…this is why I must now kill myself studying to raise my GPA. Yeah….

I think its cool that some people actually think this blog is funny, which wasn’t my original intent. (I actually only started this because I had to be a member of the"Blog community" to post on my sister’s blog.) It has also been made aware that some people think I am “a good writer.” (hey Sandra and Sharissa!) I only wish that whatever “skill” I seem to possess would have helped me back in my senior year of high school English V, where I so desperately tried to pen my essays to perfection only to get rejected again and again for “lack of a well-developed thesis” and failure to “be elaborate yet concise” on my points. I’ve also been told that I write differently than I talk, which I am somewhat at a loss as how to respond…I mean, I know it is a complement, but I wonder if what they’re really saying is “oh, you’re not as boring as I thought you were.” I guess it’s that I don’t open up as much as I could around people, especially around large groups, unless I know them really well, like my family... and if there are more gregarious people than I around that like to, shall we say, "contribute extensively” to the conversation, I just sit back and enjoy it, occasionally adding my two cents in, of course.
