How many 4000 level classes?

I'm tired. I shouldn't be typing this right now, I should be doing propulsion homework or reading or maybe some TSAD studying since I'm clueless (I'm actually pretty clueless in most all my classes at this point) or maybe I could be reading for ICengines. All of these things I need to be doing, on top of getting ready for class on Thursday, reviewing resumes, finding a job and studying for the FE. I'm just too tired right now. I stayed on campus until 5, with not much time to do anything but study German (I've got a test in a week). That's one class I don't worry about much. I should take honors German. hm...I can't stay awake in my 8:30 on MWF. I don't know why, but I fight sleep the whole time. The rest of my classes are okay though. I tell ya, I like the subjects I'm taking, but geez I wish we'd get through all the crap.

This weekend was nice. I watched "Smokin' Aces" on Friday. On Saturday we had a...um...practice? I don't understand the ideology behind never showing up for practice and expecting to win. Then I went to an awesome British car show with Schoolcraft and his dad and V. It was awesome and Vanessa wandered off the entire time taking tons of awesome pictures. I just wish we could've taken more of the Atoms. Oh well. Then we went to Target and bought scuba bags and groceries and then made sweet-n-sour chicken and watched Texas win and then went to Drew's place to watch the Hogs suck. It was cool hanging with the crew again, but I remember now why I love living off campus so much.

As for hanging out with people, it's be crazy lately. People are coming and going every weekend and I never know who's around and who's not. It's been nice not really doing any big get-togethers lately, I've enjoyed the more intimate settings of just a few people. Did I mention the hogs lost? What a bummer.

Oh yeah one last thing. V and I tried this new church this weekend and I won't say which church it was, but man it was horribly boring. The preacher read right off the slides and presented some pretty basic material. The singing was decent, but the preacher blew it for that church. I really don't mind Old Wire, I just thought we'd try something new. I still can't find a church that competes with my boring, preacher isn't great, all old people, church this summer. I wanted to go to church just to see those people smile and talk to me. It was great! The first Wednesday I was there, I lead a prayer. I've went to North St and Old Wire for months and didn't lead a prayer.

Time to sleep. My eyes are burning and it's only 11:15. Sad...

One last thing, one awesome point to my day was some pretty interesting corn bread and some great Mexican chicken. Oh yeah, you know it. Oh yeah and Kimi Raikonnen won too! Go Ferrari!

Stupid Alonso

Gaw...why can't my team win? It's Ferrari!!! C'mon guys. My racewatch went pretty well. I bought some pizzas and about 7 freshmen showed up. I figured as many, so I was glad I decided to go to Joe's instead of renting a HPER room. Raikkonen still has a chance to win, but it's not much anymore.
Last week lasted forever, but this week's looking better. Most of my freshmen showed up for the 1-on-1 meetings and we had some good talks. They're starting to open up a little more and tell me what needs to change in the program.
I've been really tired lately. I wonder if I'm not eating right or something. I've been eating just about every food group, but I could probably use a few more fruits and veggies. I'm just physically exhausted. I could barely stay awake in my first class. Ugh... Anywho I am going to read for just a bit and then crash...and burn. Have a great week.

Friday

It's been a little bit since I posted but I thought I'd get a quick summary of how things have been lately. My parents came to the game on Saturday and brought a grill and tons of food. I invited 15 or so people and we just chilled out, ate and swapped ring tones. We then rode to the game in the back of Adam's truck and got dropped off just a mere 30 minutes before gate time. Got good seats and I sat next to Cory, Vanessa and this other guy named Adam I know. It was fun. We sucked and the game was super boring for the most part. We won, of course but Troy made us look like a high school team. Texas won too, although they struggled a bit with Arkansas State. I suppose it's the first week jitters.
FEP is going good. I enjoy meeting with my freshmen and most of them enjoy meeting with me. I did have one leave this week to go home and I really liked him. I'm sad to see him go, but I suppose everything happens for a reason. We met for coffee yesterday morning before he headed out. This weekend a few of the freshmen are coming over to Joe's to watch the Italian Grand Prix, that should be fun times. I hope there's enough room for everyone. We'll see.
Classes are good, but tough. I have lots of homework and reading, but I enjoy them all so it's good. I still have enough time to get in time for a Bible study with Vanessa once a week and that's been a real blessing. Other than that, I don't have a whole lot of free time. I do occasionally play some Xbox, but that's normally when I'm caught up or ahead, which isn't normal at all.
I plan on going camping this weekend with the guys. We're going up to Joe's neck of the woods, so that should be interesting. Thinking about taking my car and rolling a little rubber off of the tires. There's some amazing curves. That's it for me. Have a great weekend.
