| Ok. I'm not going to college this year. Much as I might like to be able to pass off the last three months of silence as scrambling to get moved into a dorm, learn the fine art of faculty manipulation, and start what will doubtless turn out to be a long and fruitful relationship with the owners of the local coffee shop, it just ain't gonna happen this time around.
To say that I had a lot on my plate last year would be putting it mildly, and there were enough odds and ends (i.e. ACTs, homestudy courses, minor stuff like that) left over that I just couldn't pull it together in time.
So this is my life at the moment, stuck at home, doing leftover homestudy and without job. Not that I'm complaining, since it's really my own fault anyway. Besides, I was seriously thinking about taking a year off before college anyway. Now at least I have a chance to take a deep breath before the plunge. It gives me one more year to to figure out what I really want to do with my life before I have to declare a major. I might even learn fight my procrastination...okay, so that one is maybe a little over-optimistic.
Anyway, now you know what goes on with my life. (And knowledge is power!) Guess that means I'm clear for another month or two. Lol, now that I'm past all the stress of last year I'm gonna try to update regularly again.

| First off, I'm not dead. At least, not all dead. I'm only mostly dead. That means I'm still slightly alive. My apologies to those of you hoping to go through my clothes and look for loose change.
Second, I graduated two weekends ago, though I still have to finish up about half a credit's worth of odds and ends from the year on the boat before I get the deploma. Still haven't decided where I'm going next year, though I at least know what I'm talking about now. It's mostly between Walla Walla College and Andrews University, as they're the only Adventist schools in the country with good engineering programes (Though I think there's a conspiricy to drag me to SWAU kicking and scremeing, if they have to.). Basically it boils down to Walla Wlalla has the better engineering programe and Andrews has better everything else.
Anyhoo, I'd talk more, but there's a taxi to an airport leaving and I have to be on it.

| Warning: The following may not be intelligible when read outside the hours of 3 to 6 am.
Should it be disturbing that I no longer think of 5:30 am as early
anymore? I'm not sure if it's because I just think of it as being
really late or because my biological clock is so screwed that I can't
tell what time it is.
I'm spending spring break looking at colleges. I'm sorta dreading the whole process. I'm not really sure why, but I strongly suspect it has something to do with the fact that I have no clue what I'm doing or what I should be looking for (A disturbingly common state of affairs these days). Strangely enough, I'm not really missing the vacation time. I think I've learned not to plan for vacations; they have a nasty habit of disappearing on me.
Anyway, I've gotta run. Wish me luck and pray for me.
