This is getting old. Very old. I didn't sleep last night, again. All thanks to my wonderful apartment for not properly fixing my air conditioning unit - THREE times in a row. Each time I told them that it wasn't just the coolant, they just ignored me and refilled the coolant. You wouldn't have to refill the coolant every other week if you'd just fix the LEAK. Maybe if I get on their ass they will properly fix the problem. Maybe. On a side note, I'm at work... more in a physical sense than a mental sense. I can barely even write this. I'll probably have to edit it when I'm thinking straight.
Maybe I should just be mad at Texas for being so hot at the beginning of October. I can't wait to get out of this place on and to more mild or frigid climates. Hello, Northwest.. eventually.
Zombieland opens tonight, guys!

I always daydream.
"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds, awake in the day to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes to make it reality."
This means a lot to me. I've always dreamed of doing something I loved doing as a career. Like a hobby that pays the bills. I mean, athletes make money by playing a game. Why can't I make a living doing something I love? Well, I plan on it. Why am I in college if I don't plan on using my degree to make a living? I guess sometimes plans don't work out, right? I'll have my degree as a fall back plan. Or something. Right on.
Hopefully I can say "HELLO" to the Pacific Northwest in the next couple of years.
I think I'll go climb a big mountain one of these days. And maybe just keep climbing them.

Life
As you can tell I'm the real motivated type when it comes to updating my blog. Shut the hell up, I'll do what I want. So anyways, I figured I would give a few updates while I'm at work and have nothing better to do (work is nothing better to do, by the way). Here's what I have so far..
First off, the past few weeks have gone far too fast. I can't even recall where my winter break started, mainly because it ended so fast. Meh. So first things first. I can't help but say how happy I am with my life right now. So many things have gone amazing, and the few things that haven't been so great are far outweighed by the good things. Alana. She came into my life last semester, and she has turned it upside down since. I can only be grateful that I enrolled in Journalism 2010 last semester. I met her in that class and NEVER thought anything this great would ever come of it. I'm not going to write a book about how crazy she makes me (in only the best ways), but I will say a few things about her that makes me realize what I have been missing out on for so long. If you were ever told by someone else, "There is someone out there that is just like you, you just haven't found them yet", well this is my someone. I can honestly say that I thought I would never find someone I was entirely happy with, but now I can. She can make me laugh one minute, and then the next be completely serious. She makes me want to be a better person. Even though I have only really gotten to know her well over the last month or so, I can honestly say I've never felt this way in my entire life. She is my shoulder in a time when I need it most. But the most impressive thing is that we can both be ourselves around eachother, which coincidently we are both complete dorks. I could go on and on about her and every little thing that makes her who she is, but that could take a while.
On a completely different note, I just moved last Wednesday and my new place is amazing. On top of my roommate actually having a room, I can walk to work and school. I work at the University I attend. The new apartment in itself is great and so is the location, which happens to be right beside a sweet graveyard, but the faculty there kind of seem like Nazis. Considering I don't have to deal with them more than once a month (to deliver rent) I don't think it will be a big concern. I think it should be a good old time!
School starts on Tuesday, which means I will be super busy, but I'm ready for this to happen. I guess you could say I've got a good start to the new year. Lets keep it that way.

Holidays, Plans, and Traveling.
So, just as many other people, I have to travel quite a bit over this years Holiday break. To the say the least, I am not so excited about driving from North Dallas to Austin, and TWICE in one week at that. I had work today from 8a.m. to 5p.m., yes, on Christmas Eve. Once I get off work I get to promptly hop in my car and make a 3.5 hour trip to Central Texas to spend Christmas with my family. I wish I could really just say this will be enjoyable, but right after presents are opened and food is eaten I have to hop right back in my car and drive back to Denton. Sigh. Don't get me wrong, I love my family and can't wait to see them, but it just sucks I have to work the day before and after Christmas (don't feel too bad for me, as I was the one that volunteered to do this).
I get to drive RIGHT BACK to Austin on Friday night, with a friend this time. We are all going to a see a mutual friend of ours that decided he likes Canadian higher education. Oddly enough, his parents live near Austin. So the master plan is that myself, my roommate (he's also one of the gang, not just a tag-along), and 2 of my "OG" friends that will be stationed in my home town for the holidays to meet up and hang out with our friend from the great white north! It has been YEARS since we have all been in the same room at one time. I am seriously impressed with myself that I was able to get everyone to go! I'm excited and even though it will only be a 1 night and 1 day gathering, I believe it will be one hell of a night in Austin, Texas!
This post was in a huge rush, as I only had 15 minutes to compose it before I got off work, but you can get the fuck over it. Those are my holiday plans and I can't wait for them to unfold!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!

The Much Needed Update.
So the semester is over. I passed everything, yes, everything. It feels so good to be on "break". It's actually very relaxing even though I'll be working quite alot over the break, which is necessary to pay my bills-n-stuff. So, now that I can sigh without feeling like I've wasted valuable time I could have spent doing more constructive things such as school work, I'm pretty excited to say the least.
Now that that's out of my system, I'll continue to talk about a few things I'm excited for in the next few weeks. First off, 1 acronym. WoW. I *still* have yet to play the Wrath expansion. After hearing from some very credible sources (and many non-credible sources) I've decided to see what all the hype is about and hop back on the wagon. To be honest, the things I'm most excited about are just what spec I will be to level. Choosing whether I want to be Fury (Titan Grip Hoo!) or Prot while I level is a very hard to decision and has put me in a state of flux since I first decided to come back to the game. The one thing I'm sure of is that I won't level as Arms, mainly because I was arms for the longest time before I quit nearly 3 months ago. Arms just won't be as exciting to me as trying a brand new spec. I'm fairly convinced that I'll go Fury, and I'll explain why. I have amazing pvp gear; a combination of Season 2, 3 and 4, along with 2 very nice two handed weapons. To me, this looks like the exact recipe used to make a pwnage pie, and I'm here to feed noobs. I am also really excited about Dual Specs. I won't elaborate why, because you should know. I seriously can't wait to level up and get my ass in to Naxx. I think Blizzard has made leaps and bounds since when they first introduced this game. The smartest thing they could do with old instances is open them back up with new loot, as they did with Naxx. I'm just glad I'll actually get to finish that place now that it doesn't take a whopping 40-man raid. I think I was only 5 boss encounters from clearing that whole place with my old raiding guild. Wow, that was even before The Burning Crusade was released.. I owe it all to my brother for my return to this amazing game, as he is the one purchasing it for me for Christmas, and my dad for buying me some play time (even though he thinks I should be working instead).
On a different note, I am excited for next month because I move into my new apartment with my new-ish roomate, which happens to be a good friend of mine. I will be a block from my school and my work, since I work on campus. All in all, a very great season for me.

Left4Dead Week
So it's "dead week" here at the University of North Texas, although, that title is not appropriate whatsoever. I am more busy than ever. Not only do I have 4 exams to study for, but I have a project I have yet to start on and I still have work as usual. On top of that my dad thinks I should be looking for a second job to fill in all the "spare" time I'll have during my december "break". So now you know just exactly why I haven't posted anytime recently. Maybe I will be able to sit and play some games at the conclusion of next week. Here's to high hopes!
