A Nice Surprise

so maybe John Mayer isn't as gay as I initially perceived.
Good CD, Try, that is, by the John Mayer Trio. I had no idea such a project had been created. I just happened to be scanning through the channels when I saw this music video. Why I stopped I can not recall. I believe I was waiting for the concert to come on after this video. I have been in an adventurous mood as of late when it comes to music. Downloading an additional album by Mr Mayer in hopes of a similar sound. Boo, Northside lost. Sad Sad Sad face, hopefully Florida can win tomorrow.

Watching the World Series Game 2 Yankess v Phillies and I must say I am enjoying every pitch. Basketball season has commenced which elates my athletic soul. A soul which has been somewhat lethargic this semester, directly resulting from my absence from the softball field. Bleh, I really do despise using the word "from," but at this hour I am deemed too tired to devise an adequate replacement. Returning to my French leave of sporting events, I can only blame my selfish desires to excel in my schooling. While I currently am not wholly satisfied with my academic efforts, I am confident in my potential to finish the semester with the 3.5+ I covet enviously. What baffles me is how the nursing course load per semester is deemed as only being part time. NURS 1110 is accredited with 6 hours, and NURS 1111 is granted a mere 3. Totaling a dismal 9 hours. In actuality, each class requires a 3 hour lecture on Tuesdays, and the respective clinical (lab) sessions once a week last from 8am to 4pm. It would seem as those the math should add up to convey the appropriate credit hours; however I find myself being labeled as part time. Well, not myself that is. I took the initiative to sign up for additional classes this semester. Perspectives on Death and Dying (Online) 3 hours, Clinical Calculations (Online) 2 hours, and the ever so trivial required class of MSCC 1000 (online) 1 hours. Equaling 15 hours, in other words, full time. I enjoy all of my classes, and even though some classes are completely online, I have been able to establish communication and relationships with each of my instructors. While several would describe my actions as "sucking up", I prefer to describe my actions as genuine. I honestly do seek to understand and grow closes to my instructors. How could such a thing hurt my aspirations to pass and become successful? The majority of my instructors are employed as supervisors at the local hospitals. And while my instructors will never give away an easy grade, they are always there to help. I find such a measure comforting and take advantage of the opportunity. Makes the experience more pleasurable and relaxing. Also it makes for a good reference in the future. Early registration for spring classes begins the first week in November. With just my regular nursing classes, I will only be part time. So I have been investigating the possibility of once again taking additional classes to satisfy my ostentatious desires to be a full time student and still make Honors. I have discovered a History elective which I hope will count towards my Bachelors core requirements. I believe it is HIST 394A5 or something to that affect, entitle Sports in American History, 3 hours. My other option would be Astronomy and the subsequent lab, 4 hours, but currently the class is only offered during the exact time of my nursing classes. I still have yet to identify the days for my clinicals for next semester so I am proceeding with caution. My rationale is to sign up for whatever classes I may possibly take, and then drop the ones which conflict with my nursing schedule before the beginning of the Spring Semester. Currently I am considering the HIST class, Astronomy, World Lit (online), or possibly a Medical terminology course, which should be online. My summer is also looking to be booked, Statistics, English, Bio, and Sociology to start. And of course with work at the hospital intertwined. I do enjoy my job, for the most part I love it. I should become a nurse external shortly, a welcomed pay raise. Just another step to becoming a nurse. I have it extremely good down in Perry, and I will not let their good will go to waste, I am committed to work for Houston Healthcare for at least 2 years, more likely until I finish my BSN, which should be 3 years after I finish my ASN at the most. But let my not get ahead of myself.
Yay for Hollywood Undead. My band of the week. This is the closest I will come to listening to rap, aside from Eminem. Ever since I lost that softball game to an all black team I have ceased my indulgence to rap music. No lie.
I am enjoying my Acoustic Bass which I have recently purchased. It is a Parker Acoustic, pricing originally at 1,600.00. No I did not pay full price for such a beautiful instrument, but it has been the most money I have spent at one time in, well, ever. Aside from jogging, playing bass is what relaxes me, and I attempt to play once a day.
New diet has been going well. Initial stages, hopeful regarding results. Yay, Yankess win. Time to watch Conan O Brien until I fall asleep. Yay for Melatonin.

Filling up the iPod

no air

Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This one's for you

should be studying, but i am taking a break.
up
down
up
down
tis the cycle of emotional status
for me at least
never to the extreme
well, i shouldn't lie
blah
i just want to finish school
everything else is a distraction
albeit some are grand distractions
needed distractions
but never permanent distractions
granted, i desire a permanent distraction
like a fool
always changing but never learning from previous failed endeavors
perhaps I just fail at math
percentages and chance never make it through to my conscious understanding
i just
just
want "that"
no air
sadfaceee
i hate it
tired of it all

Loss

ehhh
well
idk
honestly
I'd rather not think about it
granted I know silver is destined to be the medallion around my neck
an awkward ambiance will forever profuse from thy inner being
for those few brief moments forever was proven false
as the sun set, all worries and concerns became forgotten
the timeless smile and soul quenching eyes shown bright through the dim light


loss for words to continue

Quickie

Sitting amongst my peers, waiting for lecture to commence.
Not much else to talk about.
