"We've seen our share of ups and downs, oh how quickly life can turn around..." - Creed

Kinda funny. I mean, just think about who you were talking to, hanging with, etc. in January 2001. Out of all those people, how many do you still do the same things with? How many new folks have been thrown into the mix? And even through all of this, doesn't it seem like that age old saying, "the more things change, the more they stay the same?"

Speaking of things staying the same, my schedule is pretty much a rehash of everything I've had before. Accounting, Economics, and Statistics all return for one more round and Management is pretty much everything that's ever bored me in my life all rolled into one. Great. Well, as long as the grades are rehashes, I won't complain about anything. Except for maybe my Economics class having 400+ people in there and the fact that its in Brackett 100 (my least favorite classes). But I'm not gonna complain...too much.

"I WILL NOT LOSE" - Jay-Z or NaS, depending on your preference

There's nothing like a good rap feud. Keep in mind, I said a good rap feud. The whole 2pac/Biggie thing got a little out of hand. Anyways, the whole feud adds something different to the music. I'm a fan of music that either tells a story, makes me laugh, or has some purpose/reasoning behind it. Which is why I don't care for too much rap. I get tired of hearing lyrics about money, cash, hoes. Tell me something different. In the meanwhile, I'm digging the whole Jay-Z/NaS thing. Will it be as good as Dre/Eazy-E (nothing beats the videos/songs for "Dre Day" and "Real Muthafukkin' G's)? Maybe. At least it won't be as sad as LL Cool J/Cannibus.

"The South has always been durty, but now its gittin' ugly" - Bubba Sparxxx

More CU Observances on relationships….'cept this time they come from Liam. Around campus there's three types of girls; pretty, average, and ugly. But no matter of which type they are, they all date the same type of guy, "BUTT-UGLY." (Liam says this is on a completely superficial level, they could actually be great guys.) Then you have guys, who try to balance them out. You don't wanna date a girl uglier than you are, but you do/don't wanna date one way prettier than you are. Its all one big dilemma. The reason ugly guys get all the women is because they don't have anything to lose. They know they're ugly, so if they get rejected on this reason, its not like its something they don't know already. In conclusion, I'll use the words of the great Mohammed Turay…."no one's ugly, there's people I just don't find attractive."

When ya'll go to check out Cecil's Page, notice how he doesn't have the year changed, yet he talks about New Year's Resolutions :-D I could have been a nice editor and changed it, but what fun would that have been?

"We are We are (We are We are), the youth of the nation…." - P.O.D.

As I get older, it doesn't really seem like I am. I mean, it doesn't feel like too much has changed. I still like the same things, I still hang out with the same types of people, etc., etc. Maybe I'll be told, oh, just wait ten years and stuff will change….just like I was told when I was 8. I can drive, and I can vote now. Big deal :-)

Guy/Geek Mode On

"somethingsomething my breasts are small and humble, so you don't confuse them with mountains." - Shakira

The Winner of the "OH MY GAWD" award for the month goes to Shakira. I don't understand what the hell she is saying, but truthfully, I really don't care. Just for her performance on Saturday Night Live and her video she earns tops in my book. Those hips...WOW! Breathtaking I tell you. And not only does she PHENOMENAL hips, she can also pull off the hat trick, she looks good as a blonde, a brunette, and my favorite, a redhead. Two thumbs up :-)

Is it just me, or does no one really care about college basketball? I mean, its cool and all, but the games are pretty much insignificant until March. Then add in the fact that most of the games are played during the week. Kinda kills the point of going, considering most people are busy during the week. Or maybe its just me, considering I do go to Clemson University. Our basketball team does kinda suck...a lot….a whole lot. Sure, we beat Virginia and Georgia Tech, but we lost to Yale and Wofford and got our asses handed to us by South Carolina. Wooo...go team :-/

"As long as we've got a 4th player at the end of the day, I've got this feeling everything's gonna turn out to be okay." - Saint Dragon, "Nintendo"

One day at dinner (or lunch, I forget) me and a few fellas were joking around saying, wouldn't it be cool if we had every videogame system ever? Well, eventho we were kidding, we're not too far from actually accomplishing this. At Phil's place (between like 5 people), there's a Nintendo Entertainment System, Super NES, Nintendo 64, Nintendo Gamecube, GameBoy Advance, Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, Sega Dreamcast, Sony PSOne, Sony PlayStation 2, and like a gazillon other things emulated on Phil's laptop. There's also a mass of wires, controllers, cartridges, boxes, CDs, DVDs, cases, and all types of other things. Now I can only ask one question…is all this really healthy? I'm gonna say probably not. Well at least we'll never have to worry about being bored.
