"Blue streak, speed by, Sonic the Hedgehog. Too fast for the naked eye, Sonic the Hedgehog" - Sonic TV Theme

You can call this EAP Speed Mix, EAP Turbo, Ultra EAP, I don't care. I just got a couple things I wanted to throw down real quick and I only have about an hour or so to spare (so no shoutouts. If you're disappointed, read the old ones). Finals aren't that important… I figure I'm doing everyone a favor. I can procrastinate by writing this, you can procrastinate by reading this. We all win...or lose. Depending on how you look at it. Since I'm writing it, I'm a winner dammit.

Back to my favoritest people in the entire world, Fraternity/Sorority members. Now we all know, as a whole, I can't stand them. Especially sorority chicks, but that's a whole 'nother story. But, I do have to give credit where credit is due. These people are the best team you will EVER see on a college campus. They have their shit all planned out come test day. They have cell phones, test banks, IM, email, post-it notes, you name it they got it. It's like a fucking underground spy network or something. And the odd thing is, they don't cheat, per se. They're actually helping each other. They find time to work out a problem, explain something in detail. You'd be surprised. They also know everyone on campus too. I have one friend in a fraternity, but damn if I don't know all of 'em. You need something, call one of them up, you'll get your hands on it within the next 52 minutes.

Great question. I know every so often I get put in that situation. It may not be everything I want, might just be one little thing, but the situation presents itself. Sometimes I'll bust my ass trying. Other times, I'll just let the window of opportunity close, which sucks. Cause afterwards I'm left wondering, what if I did this?...what if I thought about it from this perspective? Maybe its because I'm apprehensive about certain things (yes, me. I can be shy sometimes). But overall, I'd have to say its easier to just go ahead and go for certain things. Cause at least you don't have to second guess what could have happened. You either succeed and "you are a winner" or you lose. No blood, no foul.

Brrrr…. Winter came in all the sudden. I thought this was gonna be one of those years where I was able to bypass it. Guess that kinda happens when you move from the midlands to the upstate. Those damn winter storms. I mean who would have thought they would have cancelled classes for some freezing rain and a little sleet? I know my people up North sure didn't. Hope you guys enjoyed going to school/work in those couple inches of snow :-)

This semester went by super fast. So much happened in what seemed like such a little bit of time. My normal clique solidified, my group of friends got a LARGE dose of estrogen (the highs and lows that came from that….my aura is still heeling), met a ton of new acquaintances, and expanded my network. Somehow I did some work, not really sure how or when though. Our football team had a decent season and got put in a bowl game we really don't deserve to be in (sorry UVA people). When you step back and just reflect, its amazing what hits you. Two years ago, I was praying for the bleeding to just stop after what could have quite possibly been the worst freshman year. Now I'm wishing someone could put just a little more time on the game clock.
