This Past Week and Me Last Blog!

So this has probably been the best week I have had in a long time and not just because Coleman Hall got shut down haha. All of my class are finally at that floating point where nothing is due for a long time and work loads have just gotten easier and not to mention Thanksgiving Break is right around the corner. I would have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed not having ANY of my classes this past Thursday, which meant that the first thing I had to do that day was work at WEIU which was at 3. I also got off working the lab Thursday and Friday which was a nice 7 hours I got to have to myself and just relax, which was amazerful. One of my good friends from high school came an visited this weekend. The last time she came out here was a good two years ago. I showed her the stereotypical Saturday night in Charleston and went to the bars. She had never gone away to school and I wanted her to see what a college bar is like, in comparison to what she is used too which is being at old people bars. She had a fun time, as did I and this now concludes my final blog entry. I must say I am glad to do so. Especially since I never had anything cool to say, seeing as all of my blogs were either me bitching about something no one cared about or me just talking about my day, which again is not that interesting. Peace. Hope to be back in Coleman for class Monday.

SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS...dumb catchy song...

So i have discovered some oddities in myself when it comes to drinking. Everyone jokes around and calls me an alcoholic blah blah blah. First and foremost I used to consider myself a non-drinker and then once 21 i became an occasional drinker and this summer just changed me a lot i guess and then this semester it has become even more frequent. But back to my main point i was trying to state. Almost everyone i know is exhausted and sleeps the day away after a long night of drinking, yet i find myself waking up early to mid morning being wide awake. My mind is active and i don't feel hung over, although I get this overall depressed feeling for the remainder of the day unless I keep myself busy, but I am a very happy and outgoing drunk.
It makes me think back to the days when my dad used to drink and he would drink a 6 pack every evening (he was not getting drunk) it calmed him, but yet it motivated him, much like it does for me the next morning. It was almost like an energy drink to him. It is just weird and I only know one other person that is like me with whole getting up early thing and she told me that after there is a party at her house she is up bright and early cleaning up and all her roommates get mad at her for making so much noise. Meh, just some random thoughts, I think I am going to tone down my drinking habits for a bit.
