Well today marks the third week of my collegate life. Things have slowed slightly. Still spending a lot of time having fun, but the lack of sleep and workload are increasing. I give lots of props to my teachers for not throwing us to the dogs the first few weeks while we adjusted.
My roommate and I pretty much worked through our problems in a typical male fashion. We ignored them until we adjusted and I would say things are just fine now.
Today is Julia's 20th birthday! She now joins the ranks of old people (being a non-teenager.) I wish her a happy and short year. We all know 20 is just an annoyance between 18 and 21.
I am going home for the weekend tomorrow. My cousin, Callahan, is being baptized. What I look forward to most; more than clean bathrooms, a comfortable bed, home cooking, the thing I miss most is... MY BABY!!! I need my car again! Please, let tomorrow come!
What seems even more strange is I am dissapointed to be leaving Drew, even for the weekend. It's very strange.
Hopefully I will have enough time to visit the people left at home. I will certainly try my hardest.
Using baptism as a segway to Church, I just wanted to speak quickly on how cool Catholic Campus Ministry is. Earlier, before mass, the priest made a comment to the effect of, "The community is more important than the place of worship." I supressed a smile, and after mass, approached him and said, "My goodness, Father! Community! More important than place of worship? If we were in Arlington, you would be burning at a stake right now." To which he responded by rolling around on the floor laughing. Isn't that refreshing?
I just realized that our campus television plan doesn't show Fox News. That kinda pisses me off. I like getting every side of an issue by watching CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC. I guess they don't expect us to have that much intrest, but I still get Daily Show and Fark, so I can find any news story from any angle I want it.
Much love,
