So, it's Thanksgiving. It is the end of November. Time is flying.
Every year I try and think what this holiday really means. For me, I get to have dinner with my mom, dad, and brother. That is all. This year, though, my uncle is here. That's cool. Basically I have a different situation because we don't really talk to our family beside who lives in this house. I don't have a big Xmas or Thanksgiving, or even Easter. The only difference when I was dating Erin I would go out with her family and it was nice to see her get along with her cousins. I don't have that.
I guess its better, because like everyone else complains, I am very busy. I don't even talk to my cousins or anything. Sometimes I think I would like it, the only downside is they are primarily younger then me.
After today, its Christmas season. That is absolutely nuts. School is ending in two weeks...I have quite a bit of projects to do for Media, and also my three Journalism classes. The only good thing is I only have one final I believe but I have to stay until the last resident leaves - on December 24th.
I also get to leave with TC Dec 27-Dec 30th. Its only 4 days, but I think it will be fun. They have been getting great press, and bookings have been pretty good.
Once the semester is over things might be a little easier, for a little bit anyway.
Btw - I am not hungry at all for food. I drank a bit last night. Went crazy. Good times.

Life
Well, things are getting crazy.
I should be in bed.
But I can't sleep anymore.
I am too stressed. I always feel like I have something to do.
....yet I haven't done much today.
I have to do a movie, and 2 projects that are the most important.
I also have to focus on Latin American class...but that is a major fail too.
I've been doing a lot of booking, which is worth it, but I feel like I might have overwhelmed myself.
I need me time. I played some bass today. Somehow, even though I was alright when I played with This Condition, I feel like I got a little better. I'm going to try and add video to this.
Which was super awesome of them. I really want to continue to go out with them in January, but can't do to prior obligations. Totally bummed.
Anyway, I am practicing more. Hopefully gonna get a project or two started over winter break too..it was nice to play the stage again.
I need to do a lot of things for the class that I am technically writing this for. My mind is just all over the place right now.
...and well, of course I am still doing that whole RA thing. That's quite interesting.
I'm also trying to force myself to stay here this weekend ( I have an event here Sunday...) so I could focus on the school work. I think Friday, and Saturday daytimes might be big days to do work. I just have to like, do it. Wish me luck.

Happy November - It's been a while!
It's been quite a while since I updated. A lot has happened.
Well recently, we have elected Barack Obama into the White House. It is absolutely amazing. I am proud once again to part of this country. I feel that first of all, a democrat in the White House will do wonders by a year or so in the term. Then, Obama is someone that I feel can really make a difference while in office. I hope and wish him the best. I was happy to cover the entire election on WUSB which you could probably re-stream on wusb.fm. I used the equipment, and read the news aloud. I was a little shakey since I haven't read the news on air in so long.
It's a little passed the halfway mark of the semester, actually it's more toward the end then anything. I still need to do a ton of work, and I am definitely overwhelmed. I just finished some JRN essays, but then for my other class I need to do a lot of filming and editing. That is going to take some time. Hopefully the shooting will be finished by Thanksgiving. I also am registering for classes for next semester. I hope next will be better, and I hope I pass all of my classes.
The RA gig ain't too bad. I sometimes wish I devote more time to it, even though I am doing so much for it. I enjoy interacting with people. I enjoy helping them too.
I am also writing for the Statesman. Check out articles by me at www.sbstatesman.com.
I also did some blog postings for them at ohfiftyseven.wordpress.com (mainly on CMJ!)
Finally, one of my favorite things, is bookings. Fingers crossed, I pretty much have booked up 3 shows in 3 days. That's good. I also am sending out This Condition on tour and fully booking for them. It's a lot of fun and I get to go with them when I can and want. Tomorrow they are playing CT and I get to play with them! I am uber excited!!!
And unfortunely the ending of this is things I cannot outright say. I am happy, and I am sad. I don't know really how to offically feel. But I don't want to screw up ever again. I am through playing, and hopefully people are doing the same for me. Werd.
