Exams :(

So the semester is coming to an end and I can not wait for the holidays. I turn 23 two days after Christmas and every New Year's I go to Atlanta to catch four nights of STS9 starting on the 28th. It's my favorite time of the year. I love being at home and spending time with my family. I can't cook at all so it is always nice to be cooked for while at home. Winterbreak is always rejuvenating and I'm really glad it is almost here. I've only got two more classes and two more exams and the semester is done. I'm nervous about my presentation. I hope it goes well . . .

Shiver

The weather has gotten out of control. I never remember it being this cold before Thanksgiving let alone in Charleston at all. The Farmers Almanac says its going to be a really cold winter and they are definitely right. I'm excited that Thanksgiving is in a few days. I really need to get away from school and work. The end of the semester is always just filled with work. The College of Charleston Library is so much better than the Citadel library. I'm so glad I can still come to CofC's library after graduating. I'm getting a new car when I go home for Thanksgiving and I'm extremely excited about that although I wish I wasn't having to get a new car since I loved my old new car. :(

Music!!

I'm really stoked this week because my favorite band, Sound Tribe Sector 9 is touring in the southeast and I'm going to be able to make a lot of the shows. We went to Knoxville on Saturday for the show and tomorrow night they will be in Charleston! Tonight another one of my favorite bands, Pnuma Trio, is playing here in Charleston and that will be a great show as well. Thursday, we're back on with Sound Tribe in Charlotte and they are playing all weekend in DC. Other than that work is okay and I'm so glad my boss is being relaxed with my hours so I can make all the shows and I can't wait for Thanksgiving break so I can go home and see all my family.

Obama Wins!!

I am so glad Obama won last night! I had confidence that he was going to, but I'm so ecstatic that he did. I think it goes to show that Republicans are idiots in that in the last two years they have lost around 55 seats in the House and at least 8 seats in the Senate. I would love to hear from anyone that disagrees with that statement as long as they didn't vote for Bush in 2004, because if they did then they helped make our country what it is today. I can't wait for Bush to leave office and I can't wait to see how great of a job Obama will do. Go Democrats!!!

Job Promotion and Halloween

Yesterday I got a promotion. My salary is pretty much the same but I have a lot more responsibility now and way more paperwork. It's definitely worth it because I'm learning so much more now. I'm also really excited about Halloween this weekend. Im going as a vampire. Thursday night one of my favorite djs is playing a Hallow's Eve show and that weekend is going to be crazy by default. I have so much to do before I can leave the office today and have even more to do before class tonight.

Everytime the Weather Changes . . .

Everytime the weather changes I get sick. It never fails. I was pretty sick all weekend and am finally feeling better today. Everytime the weather changes I have to take midterms. I guess everyone has to take midterms when the weather changes but it never fails. Everytime the weather changes I have to retrace my steps to the same season of the former year and figure out what happened to all my clothes. I guess it is just innate in a guy that we don't store things well or organized or maybe it is just me. Charleston weather is the worst sometimes because the weather will change for one season at least eight times until it finally decides to stay hot or stay cold and it's almost impossible to tell when it is here for good.

NYC

I had the best weekend in New York. I definitely did not wear the bandage around my thumb like i should have and it is still killing me, but it was worth it. Friday night I went to see MSTRKRFT with my old roommate Katie. They are these DJs that play some great dance music. The show was in Webster Hall which is a huge nightclub. Saturday, I walked around the city shopping and sightseeing with an old flame and then went to dinner and a show. We saw Spring Awakening which won the 2007 Best Musical Tony and it starred Silas from Weeds on Showtime which is one of my favorites shows. After the show we met up with friends for drinks and then went home. Sunday my old roommate and I went to see Legally Blonde on Broadway because it starred a girl that I was friends with in high school and I wanted to catch her before she left the show. All in all it was a great weekend and now Im back and ready to pump out the next 6 weeks of school.
