The End of Days

So it's freaking hot, it's 3:30am, and I've been reading far too long. So there shall be musings.

Sort of looking forward to school starting again. I will, no matter what, not be bored, I think. More than that, I've got something to prove. 16 credits is going to be the most I've taken since that fateful winter term freshman year where I took 18, and the resulting beatdown pretty well shell-shocked me. I haven't been pulling the best of grades the last few years, and I want to get over that. I've fucked up pretty hard, in fact. I want that to be over. Been saying a lot of shit lately to folks like Marechal about how you hafta stand up and take charge, and I've been thinking about how I've always prided myself in that while I might be a slacker, when the time comes to get the job done, I can stand up and do it. Well, here we are. Senior year. I have 16 credits 2 terms out of 3, and my 12 credit term promises to be almost as hard. The time has come to get the job done, and I hope to hell I can stand up and do it.

And then there's the inevitable spectre of jobs and real life. I've been avoiding that pretty good for quite a few years, too. Need to stand up and do that, too.

Nay my friend, for there is grad school! You can avoid work for another three years easily!

Trust me, I've thought this one out...

What money?

You don't need money to go to school, my friend. The government has all the money you'd ever need for educational expenses and they're more than happy to lend it to you at a very reasonable interest rate!
