Only The Best Month Ever

2 min read

School, birthdays, and staying healthy is really kicking my ass this month.

Most of the important people will be celebrating their birthday this month, if not already. I have been preoccupied with schoolwork, and I have finally gotten over my lonely spell. I feel totally horrible that I have not been writing in my blog, but I guess nothing fascinating has happened between now and Monday. Hopefully that will soon change.

So for lack of anything better to write about, I will make this about my plans for this weekend. I do not have many, but tomorrow is my old roomie’s birthday. Apparently we will be going to a restaurant called “Texas de Brazil.” It is buffet style with a whole lot of meat, and there will be a nice group of us. The only problem? I do not eat meat. But I hear they do not allow people into buffets without paying first. I’m not sure if I am willing to pay $25 to not eat. But I must attend!

On another note, my birthday is coming up as well. I’m thinking about going to Islands of Adventure. (Its my attempt to subside the nostalgia I have been feeling since my last blog.) It is also my attempt at escaping the schoolwork. I figure I have lived in Orlando for about a year now, and I have not patronised any of the theme parks or water parks. (‘Sup with that?)

Everyone is invited ! UCF students get practically a 50% discount to go there, which I am super thankful for. So yes, I will take full advantage of that on my day of birth.

As for the school aspect of my life, I think I am being a huge baby right now. My work-load really is not that much, or rather it is not anything I cannot handle. Aside from the grammar class that I so much adore, I am also taking Spanish, World Religion, and Statistics. The latter two are the ones I have payed the least attention to.

Hinduism does fascinate me, but I have trouble refraining from the blackberry in between note-taking. Stats on the other hand; I will take full responsibility for my confusion. I am certain the information is not complicated, but I think I can count on one hand how many times I have been to that class since the semester began. Wait wait. Before you shake your head, let me argue this a little. What sense is it to go to class when you do not pay attention? Or rather, when the notes are all online!

Furthermore, I have been to every lab, (which happens to be at 10 30am on Fridays) and the discussion is not the important part anyway. All I need to do is get myself to pay attention in there and then I will be fine.

What can I say. My brain is still on Vacation.
