#33Those Gosh Darn Internet Machines!
It seems as though in the few months I was gone, Blogger has changed their format in such a way that I can't create more than one paragraph. I will be reposting this in the future, but by all means, if you feel like reading a large block of text, go ahead. Hello. Funny, isn't it? That seems like the most shocking thing someone can say if they haven't spoken in months. Three months with speaking a word and all it seems like all you had on your mind was exchanging pleasantries. All I really feel like saying is, these past few months have been the most and least enjoyable of my life. The most because I've been surrounded by people that I love and cherish, and the least because I've met people I that I don't even like to bother with. Or more really, they've shown themselves to be people that I shouldn't bother with at all. The kind of people to whom you say, "I've got your number," but the number is the number days you'll be counting until you never have to see them again. Besides all that other unpleasantness, I suppose I do have much to apologize for. First of all, I'd like to apologize to everyone who has been badgering me for a blog post. Secondly, I'd like to apologize to the Internet, because by missing these past couple months, the second semester of my sophomore year is gone forever to the Internet. I'd also like to apologize to PersonalWellness(Swanson), for replacing mealtimes with sleep, and sleep with procrastination, and enthusiasm with apathy. Moving on to other news, my brother has narrowed down his college choices to Caltech or MIT. People outside of my family are always awkward when they realize how casual we are about it. "Congratulations!" "...for what?" "Your son/brother got into MIT, Caltech, Columbia..." "Er...cool. Thanks." "Oh, um, okay then. Congrats. Bye." I applied and interviewed for a spot at the Kent Bellows studio. I have no idea how it went. I mean I was there, but I don't know whether or not I did okay. I had an excellent character reference with me, though. My mother. To be honest, I am mentally already finished with my sophomore year. Everything I've been doing after March has just felt like extra credit work that I'm being forced to do against my will. Well folks, this has concluded my first blog post after a three month long hiatus. I hope you enjoy the new background.
